-
Molding the model. May Madison be a model molding the
-
model Brother Jesse saw one twenty seven and verse number three.
-
Low children are inheritage of the Lord, and the fruit
-
of the room is his reward.
-
Amen, Brother Nathaniel Matthew, Chapter number eighteen and verse number two, Please,
-
my brother. And Jesus called a little child unto him
-
and set him in the midst of them. All right,
-
let's stand for the reading of our golden text Matthew,
-
nineteen thirteen and fourteen. All right, reading our golden texts, Matthew,
-
nineteen thirteen and fourteen. The Bible said, then, where they're
-
broad unto him, little children, that he should put his
-
hands on them and pray. And the disciples rebuked them,
-
But Jesus said, suffer little.
-
Children, and forbid them.
-
Not to come unto me, For of such is the
-
kingdom of heaven. May we pray, Heavenly Father, we love
-
and we praise you. We thank you for this, precious people,
-
we think you preaching everyone that has come today to worship.
-
You in spirit and in truth.
-
I thank you for this grief of holy rollers, people
-
that are the lovers of the book, peepers of people
-
that are.
-
Lovers of the truth. I thank you for that. I
-
pray that you would have want this, thy servants, out
-
of God of thy mouth.
-
Help me to say the things you would happy to say,
-
nothing more or less, and not the ears of this
-
thy people, that they might hear what the spirit of
-
God says. Or to the Church, we pray God, help
-
us to be molded by your words, shaped and form
-
to your glory in Jesus' name. And the Church said, Amen,
-
as you're being seated, look at your neighbor and say, hey, neighbor.
-
Are you a model Praise the Lord preaching a servant.
-
The Holy Ghost titled molding the model. Purpose of gathering
-
this morning is to worship the Lord and the beauty
-
of holiness, and to worship Him in spirit and in truth.
-
And another reason why we are gathered together today is
-
to dedicate baby Madison Kinsey Howell. Two or three weeks ago,
-
brother Samuel Howell contacted me and he said, Pastor, I
-
was wondering if I could get baby Madison dedicated before
-
she outgrew her baby dedication gal And oh how adorable
-
she is. This morning. I've looked at her several times.
-
I've looked at her today more than I have in
-
past services, because.
-
I know what is going on.
-
I know what her parents desire to do today. I
-
know the thoughts and the intents of her parent's heart
-
concerning her.
-
They want to give her back to the Lord.
-
As we look in this particular book of the Bible,
-
Brother Nathaniel, we find it to be the first book
-
of the New Testament. And in this book of the
-
Bible we find the beginning of ministries, we find the
-
first callings of disciples, we find a lot of beginnings.
-
So again, this particular book of the Bible is the
-
beginning of the New Testament.
-
It's the beginning of something different, something new, the New Covenant.
-
This morning, our attention is focused on a little one
-
named Madison Kinsey Howell, who is a little infant in
-
the early stages.
-
Of her life. Have you looked at her today? I have.
-
I've looked at her several times, and I have found
-
her to be also cute, so adorable.
-
I believe she is.
-
Anyhow as her grandfather, her papa, I believe she's the
-
cutest thing in the world. And I feel the same
-
way about the other fourteen At this time, Sister Howell
-
and I have fifteen grandchildren, and we're expecting two more
-
before the.
-
End of the year. Is it God good?
-
I'm thankful for Sister Howell as Mimi or as grandmother
-
because of the example that she is for these parents
-
and these grandchildren.
-
And I have found that Mimi is not hesitant at all.
-
Never is she reluctant to put her little hands upon
-
these grandchildren and to help assist the parents. During these
-
molding years, I was praying, I was asking God to
-
speak to me concerning baby Madison's dedication, and Brother Nathaniel,
-
I was very excited when he spoke the title this
-
Morning's message into my heart.
-
Could you imagine when.
-
You hear the words molding the model, how excited I
-
must have been at that moment when I realized God
-
had given.
-
Me something for this father and mother for their child.
-
And as we look at this Golden Text, I see
-
some words that I misunderstood as a child. If you
-
look at the latter part of our Golden Text, namely,
-
specifically verse number fourteen, you find these words suffer little children,
-
Brother Nathaniel, when I was a young child, probably between
-
the ages of six and ten. During that time of
-
my life when a preacher would mention the scripture, I
-
misunderstood the meaning.
-
It didn't make sense to me.
-
I didn't think Jesus was one to make little boys
-
and girls suffer. But that verse of scripture puzzled me.
-
Those three words bothered me. Those three words stopped me
-
in my tracks, had made me think, can someone be
-
so cruel as to require the suffering of little children?
-
But then I read a little further and I saw
-
the word not forbid them not. So you guessed that
-
the words suffer little children bothered me. But when I
-
saw the words forbid them not, I was comforted. And
-
now I understand what the Lord Jesus was saying when
-
he spoke these words unto his disciples. He was saying
-
he didn't want little ones to suffer. He was rebuking
-
those within his inner circle and was telling them to
-
allow the children to come unto him. And how many
-
presents today believe that little children are always welcome to
-
get in the presence of the Lord. A couple of
-
weeks ago, at the end of one of our services,
-
one of our elder sisters stood up and said, I
-
would like to testify, if that would be all right,
-
Brother Nathaniel granted her permission to do so. And while
-
she was testifying, an elder brother in our church, brother
-
Thomas Dare, gave out a message in Tongu's and Brother
-
Nathaniel interpreted that message, and in that moment, instantly one
-
of my granddaughters, Rebecca, was convicted in her heart, and
-
she knelt down to pray and to be saved at
-
the age of three. The spirit of God was molding
-
little Rebecca.
-
The Kingdom's doors aren't closed to.
-
Little boys and little girls like Madison, our Golden Texas
-
in the nineteenth chapter of Matthew.
-
But as I turned back to the eighteenth chapter, my
-
heart was warned all the more as I looked at
-
the first few verses of.
-
This eighteenth chapter and allowed my eyes to fall upon it,
-
and sometimes I begin to take in when those words
-
were speaking to me. They had asked him a question
-
about it, out Greatness, Apparently there was a question in
-
the minds and hearts of these disciples. You never know
-
what's going on under the surface. When church people gather
-
together to get in the very presence of Jesus, you
-
really have no idea what's going on under the surface,
-
and who would have thought that while Jesus was ministering
-
and doing everything that he did that was so good,
-
that these disciples would be asking questions concerning greatness. I'm thinking,
-
brother Aaron, one of them thought like this, I wonder
-
who is the greatest disciple. Perhaps another one thought something
-
like this, I wonder who will be in the King's
-
court once he establishes kingdom. Another one might have thought,
-
who will head up his administration and cabinet?
-
Another one probably thought who will be the general in
-
his army.
-
The Lord Jesus had an answer that let them down.
-
In fact, his answer stopped them in their tracks and rocked.
-
Them back on their heels.
-
When the Lord summons a little child to come unto him,
-
and when the Lord plomped that little child down in
-
their midst smack dab in the middle of the omens, said,
-
let me have.
-
Your attention.
-
To all of you that are aspiring greatness, to all
-
of you that want to be a model in my kingdom.
-
I'll show you who the model is.
-
Now.
-
Parents, I want you to get the context of what's
-
going on here. This is a little child that no
-
doubt had been shaped by the hands and the raisin
-
of its parents and Jesus what did that particular child
-
as the model to present to his disciples, which was
-
to be an example as to how they were to
-
be the parents. I don't want to ask you, how
-
are you doing with them molding the model? If Jesus
-
was here today and he needed a little child to
-
use as.
-
An example deuring a sermon or during.
-
An illustration, whose child would he reach for? Which little
-
child would he take by the hand and walk out
-
of the midst of the congregation and set them before us?
-
You are molding the model. Some parent in the midst
-
of all of these people had done a great job
-
molding the model. Brother Nathaniel, your daughter Rebecca is the
-
one that the Lord laid on my heart to come forward.
-
As I open my eyes, she's coming down to center all.
-
So if you would, Brother Nathaniel, come put her in
-
his chair, stand right here behind her, sit behind her.
-
You are molding the model. I'm feel it in my
-
soul right here right now. Do y'all feel that? Do
-
y'all understand what I'm saying? Can Jesus use you to
-
shape and mold those little models that He has put
-
in your hand?
-
When we speak of modeling, That is the act of
-
creating something by casting it in a mold.
-
Right, And when we speak of creating something, we're speaking
-
of shaping or casting or forming it. Brother Samuel, how will,
-
father to baby Madison Kinsey?
-
How will?
-
The Bible said that.
-
We are to bring our children up and the nurture
-
and the admonition of the Lord. And I feel like
-
you have answered the heavenly call to do such a
-
thing as that, because each and every service I see
-
you bring that little bundle of joy into the house
-
of the Lord, and you're allowing that baby to be
-
created into something that is meat or sufficient for the
-
use of the Master. The Bible said that we are
-
to be meet for the Master's use, being capable and
-
able to be used by the Lord.
-
Now, I don't feel like this child was an unruly child.
-
The Bible said concerning the baby Moses.
-
That he was a goodly child. And it was that
-
goodly child the Lord eased. Now, if your child is
-
not a goodly child, do not expect God to use it.
-
The Bible spoke concerning Samuel, he was a good, fine
-
specimen of an individual in the house of God.
-
He was a little model when parents would bring their families.
-
To the Senate God or the Temple or the Tabernacle,
-
there would be those that were within such a structure
-
that were good role models. They were model Christians. They
-
were a model priest. They were model priests. That there
-
were model prophets, and they were model saints. The apostle
-
Paul was a model apostle, a model disciple.
-
He was one without hesitation and contempt.
-
Those coming along beside him follow me as I follow Christ,
-
be shaped and be formed.
-
In order to match me, Brother Jesse.
-
When I think of Jesus plucking this little child out
-
of their minst and putting them in front of everybody
-
and schooling them concerning that little child, Brother Jesse, their
-
question is Who's gonna be the greatest?
-
Now the Roman Catholic Church they teach that Peter was
-
the first poop. I don't believe that. I strongly disagree
-
with that. And this is not a Bible class. This
-
is the baby dedication ceremony. But if that was true,
-
don't you think in this moment, but that question was
-
asked who is the greatest, that Jesus would have said,
-
thou art Peter, your pope, of what is to be
-
a Roman Catholic church. When the question was asked who
-
is the greatest, A lot of people might have expected
-
him to select James or John. Right, I'd say more
-
votes would have been cast into certing John. John must
-
be the greatest because he's always the closest. That's the
-
disciple that loves Jesus. He's the one that Jesus loves.
-
Has gotta be John. But brother, he went and got
-
a child, and he put that child down in front
-
of them. I can't emphasize that enough because even amongst
-
Pentecostal and Holiness people today, there is an heir. When
-
you go in the House of God, everybody's wondering who
-
is the greatest preacher, who is the greatest teaching, who
-
is the greatest minister, who is the greatest prayer warrior,
-
who's the greatest praise warrior, Who's the greatest saying, Who's
-
the most holy? Who's the most unholy? And Jesus would
-
do the same for the Pentecostal and Holiness movements today
-
as he did then. He would look around and he
-
would scold us for the thoughts of our hearts. Words
-
that were not spoken would be revealed faults and deeds
-
and were committed, and darkness would be brought to light,
-
and Jesus would dissect the problem and offer us a
-
remedy and a solution, and tell us what you need
-
is humility.
-
You need humility. Are y'all with me?
-
The Lord Jesus' sir, was without a doubt displeasing that
-
everybody that was present, because everybody knows that people love
-
to worship people.
-
You're in a country that has a TV series.
-
Program, reality Seria, whatever you call it, called American idol.
-
When the Lord called a little child to him and
-
plopped that little child down in the middle of them,
-
he was giving everybody a verbal.
-
Slap in the face. That was the person they least
-
expected to be the greatest.
-
And Jesus said, barely, I said to you, except you
-
be converted and become as little children, ye shall not
-
enter into the Kingdom of Heaven.
-
I want to say it again.
-
Noticed the Lord did not point a finger at Peter
-
James or John, nor did he point any dignitary in
-
the crowd. Jesus pointed a finger at a little child.
-
I to place that little child at the center of attention.
-
You want attention become as a child. I've seen people
-
come to church if want to be the center of attention.
-
I'm telling you I.
-
Could exhort on that right now for thirty minutes of
-
people that call themselves the children of God come to
-
a worship service where we're to lift up the.
-
Name of God and to lift up the Lord Jesus Christ.
-
And somehow in the company.
-
Of three to four or thirty to forty, or three
-
hundred to four hundred, there's somebody in that place want attention.
-
There's somebody in that place want recognition. Oh, come on now,
-
But Jesus wanted his disciples to take notice of the characteristics,
-
the behaviors, the actions, and the nature.
-
Of a little child. Did y'all catch that.
-
Jesus wanted his disciples to take notice of the characteristics,
-
the behaviors, the actions, and the natures of that particular
-
little child that had to have been.
-
A well behaved child.
-
I've never heard a preacher preach along these lines. There
-
is no outline available anywhere.
-
That I know of.
-
I know my God in Heaven brought this to my attention,
-
that this child was.
-
Selectable to be a model for Jesus to use in
-
his illustration. Now, if your child's running all over the
-
place before during an actor church, do you think that child.
-
Is such a person or such a model.
-
I want my child to be one of them that
-
when parents go home they say, did you see how
-
so and so was acting today? That's how I want
-
you to act. Apostle Paul was concerned about the actions
-
of some of the other Christians, so they made it
-
clear to Timothy and other believers forget about what they're doing.
-
I am your role.
-
Model, I am your example. I am who you are
-
to follow.
-
And if anybody else is doing otherwise, don't follow them,
-
follow me.
-
And that's what I'm saying out here in our church
-
today and in other churches within Christendom, within Pentecostal and
-
holiness movements, we need good examples. We as saints of God,
-
as what's supposed to.
-
Be the cream of the crop. We're supposed to.
-
Be molding the models of Christianity and shaping this holiness movement.
-
I could really preach, but I'm trying nothing to get
-
too excited. So we've already asked the question, can Jesus
-
use your child as a model for how sweet nature
-
the child should be?
-
When I came down here about eighteen and.
-
A half years ago, Sister woot And and some of the
-
older saints put things this way concerning people. They said, well,
-
that's how their nature. I was from Central Florida. I
-
never heard anybody use that expression when reacting and responding
-
to the actions of somebody, whether it was appropriate or inappropriate,
-
whether or not they behave themselves wisely or unwisely. Sister
-
Wooton would explain it as this, that's just how they
-
are natured, and as that she's saying, they are the
-
product of their parents molding, and this is their nature.
-
You know why that panther was attempting to slave brother
-
Philip because it had a mother that had taught it
-
how to kill. And from what I've observed, Madison has
-
a good nature.
-
That is a goodly child. I feel that in my
-
soul she has a good nature.
-
But do you know a grandmother, a mom, a grandfather,
-
or a dad could corrupt that good nature by being
-
a bad example.
-
And by my understanding, they are molding the bottel when
-
I hear that.
-
It has entered into our holiness churches, that women think
-
nothing of wearing sheer material from their wrist on all
-
the way to their shoulder without feeling the need to
-
put an undershirt underneath, therefore exposing the entire length.
-
Of their arm to the human eye.
-
That is not.
-
Properly molding the model, that is not setting forth a
-
good example for the upcoming generation.
-
There is no way I will ever believe. I will
-
always believe.
-
That there is something grossly roam in the heart of
-
what is called a holiness. Woman who was raised in
-
the House of God by holiness parents, there's.
-
No nothing all of her life but holiness.
-
All of a sudden to feel no need whatsoever to
-
be modest. A woman that has always gave her clothes
-
a second look, a woman that's always pull things out
-
that needed to be pulled out, A woman's always pull
-
things down that need to be down, those that have
-
changed or proves in order to appeal and appear to
-
be modest. How could such a person as that decide
-
I'm going to wear sleeves of sheer material, transparent, so
-
that every young person in that building seize my bare arms.
-
We're not talking about people of nominal churches that haven't
-
been raised better.
-
We're not talking about people of nominal churches that have
-
beach parties and then practice fixed bathing and participate in
-
things like that.
-
Co edit activities.
-
We're not talking about somebody like Sister Charity, how that
-
was raised an Assembly of God where the youth pastor
-
took them all out water skiing, right where the guys
-
and the girls in their swim trunks and in their
-
bikinis and made it says God in a boat and
-
did water sports all day long on Saturday.
-
We're not talking about somebody like that.
-
We're talking about independent holiness, fireap tires people, free holiness people,
-
Church of God people, Assembly of God people, people that
-
were once convicted, people that knew.
-
They needed and knew better, people that.
-
Made adjustments before they walked out of their house.
-
People that changed close before they walk out of their health.
-
There's no way I will ever believe that they don't
-
have wrong intentions. Somebody sent me a picture of one
-
of the main singers in a holiness church talking about
-
molding the model. You feel like it doesn't matter, huh.
-
You feel like the little kids aren't taking notice and
-
notes of what we're doing. We aren't creating a monster.
-
And somebody better wake up and back up. Somebody better
-
turn around and had in a different direction. You know
-
what you're doing. You know you're chasing fields. You know
-
you're heading in the wrong direction. You know you've taken
-
the broadway. You know that compromising monster is a beast
-
that is never satisfied. You know what you're doing, lead singer,
-
when you walk into a Holiness church and you've got
-
on a V neck blouse and stop plunging just below
-
the collar ball.
-
But in that picture of that person sent.
-
Me and they asked me to try to plain to
-
them how a person in an independent Holiness church come
-
here justin wrote.
-
Gap could walk into the.
-
Holiness church with a V neck blouse plunging all the
-
way down to that button right there, right, No, there
-
was not an undershirt underneath it. That's why that holiness
-
pastor sent me a message and said.
-
How can this be? How can somebody that I shouted.
-
With, I was in their company, in their presence only
-
seven to ten years ago. How can this be even tolerated?
-
How can this be acceptable? And here's what I said.
-
There are certain people that call themselves Pentecostal and call
-
themselves holiness who have shorter things that what sister Howell
-
would wear. They've got lines in a little bit alone
-
word gonna want sister, how on would wear?
-
But I said, even those people who seemed to be
-
very loose with there to wear.
-
A V neck blouse and plunged into the no nodes on.
-
I'm telling you there's deeper issues going on with a
-
mother of Israel thinks nothing.
-
No, se didn't forget her under shirt. When a mother
-
of Israel thanks nothing of walking.
-
In a church.
-
She didn't walking about us. He didn't walk in a cloud.
-
I would have expected of the dress like that.
-
But see walked in a shirt.
-
You know what she's doing.
-
She's moading the model. So about ten years from now,
-
gim little children.
-
And a minute to the model, and they're gonna be
-
the model for.
-
The next generation.
-
And nobody's going there one thing about modesty.
-
They don't think anything of it. They don't care about it,
-
Brother road Cap.
-
They need me to demonstrate again, Come my, brother, Roadcap.
-
I've got that picture. They're right there.
-
Holding his church. The pastor's wife.
-
Must have been a bad example, because the second picture
-
that came in was of the pastor and his wife,
-
and the pastor's wife standing there in a sleeve that
-
is made of sheer material. I remember going around them
-
people when that hair bun was so tight.
-
And that neckline was so high.
-
Their brother, jeremy assistant Charity, did a clothing check before
-
we walked in that place. Yeah, and that preacher said,
-
do you see.
-
How far they're gone and how low they've foughten? I said,
-
who couldn't see it? My brother sister, and they think
-
nothing of it but their mold and the model.
-
I could have really preached us tonight, you know. But
-
I'm gonna leave it as a baby dedication and talk my.
-
Way through it. Slow down.
-
But brother Philip, it is an intentional attack, an intentional attack.
-
On the little ones. Because I'm gonna tell you something.
-
A woman of this world may not know any better, but.
-
I would say her own conscience lets her know why
-
she's doing what she's doing.
-
But a holiness woman, I'm gonna say, without a doubt,
-
she is demonically towards used and right now because she's
-
listening if she's in a rage.
-
And just the same way Herodius one to headed John
-
Deboga's her and her past both.
-
Would want my head. But I'm not the hypocrite here.
-
I haven't changed my message.
-
And don't they know how to say, you are judging them?
-
Don't they know how to say you're criticizing them. Don't
-
they know how to say nobody should be sharing and
-
sending pictures like that?
-
Oh, don't they know.
-
How to say, you're being kind and sending Know what
-
we're doing is helping everybody know what a difficult they are.
-
And we're letting all of our little models know they're
-
not the model.
-
And I dare say, if Apostle Paul was alive today,
-
he would print the picture out and send it out
-
to all of the churches and say, this is not
-
how a model Christian is to dress, because I've said
-
it for years. What we do in moderation, our children
-
will do in excess. But it doesn't stop there. The
-
preacher said that you notice that the pastor's wife has
-
the same thing going on, a V neckblouse, a plunging
-
necklight into the No nosone, I said, no, I did
-
not notice that. He said, I'm telling you where the
-
woman got it from. She got it from the pastor's wife.
-
And I'll tell y'all where the pastor's wife got it
-
from from the pastor.
-
Because I prayed about it. I can't imagine a holiness
-
man looking at his wife's sister Needley.
-
And know one she's about to walk out of his
-
holiness home, his holiness wife, out of his holiness home
-
into his holiness church, and the husband's side of him
-
not have a problem with.
-
The fact.
-
The things that have never been shown for forty years
-
are now exposed. Areas on the body that haven't seen daylight,
-
much less the lights of the House of God for
-
forty something years. Now they're being exposed. No matter how
-
you look at it, they're wilfully choosing to mold the models.
-
They are molding the models. I'm gonna sit again. They
-
are molding the models. And if Jesus was to illustrate
-
this morning on modesty, could he pull them out of
-
the crowd and set them in our midst to say,
-
this is a model Christian, This is the attire of
-
a modest Christian. This is the way a Christian dresses,
-
Brother Jesse of The only deeclusion I can come to
-
is they simply do not care.
-
And if you think on it, pray much more about it,
-
to the conclusion that he is wanting indecent exposure.
-
Because the God's honest shrewth is is if the first Lady,
-
the beat of the Holiness Church.
-
Even attempted to walk in our living room like that,
-
there would be consequences, right.
-
Don't y'all believe when that woman walked in as first Lady,
-
all of the molding of them elder.
-
Sisters, all of those years was immediately destroyed. And they
-
get upset that a Holiness pastor while preaching revived.
-
We would get a little bit excited when his spirit.
-
Collides with counterfeit charismatic spirits, and they would say that
-
preacher's actions are unbecoming and unjustified God. And then they
-
want us to sit by the wayside and act like
-
they're not dingy, dirty dogy perverts. I mean, didn't take
-
about a perverted soul to stand there and say, I'm
-
gonna pick this glass out. I won't say people that
-
are struggling with a link to the skirt, whether bottom
-
of the calf, mint calf, or upper calf, they wouldn't
-
go into that area. I know Baptist, Presbyterian, Lutheran, and Apostolic.
-
I may name me some more.
-
Presbyterian, Lutheran, episcopalian, a Baptists name me some more.
-
Some guys got churchill Christ.
-
I know a lot of people that are concerned about
-
being modest that.
-
Wouldn't dare do that.
-
Now. I will never believe that a holiness person doesn't
-
have bad intention.
-
Is to do something like that.
-
One of them elders in that church should have stood
-
up and said, listen, I know you're first lady.
-
You know we give our leadership benefits of it now.
-
Doing not and sometimes we understand things happen and we're merciful,
-
but listen, nobody accidentally put a sheer sleep hold, and
-
two to five women didn't accidentally walk into church with
-
plunging necklines. Somebody is cohercing and coaching them in the background,
-
By pointed, somebody is molding the models for that church,
-
or y'all getting it, That is going to be the
-
new norm. That's gonna be what everybody sees when they
-
go to church.
-
Sisters, so and so, they.
-
Ain't gonna be able to shout without being immodest. She's
-
not gonna be able to obey God and get in
-
the spirit without being immodest. For y'all getting what I'm saying,
-
he is molding the martyrs, and he's changing the face
-
of that church entire.
-
What about you, Dad and Mom?
-
Do you not realize Gods to pool them little children
-
out for the next generation and set them forth as
-
an example for.
-
How we are to be in our generation.
-
Even my little granddaughter Rebecca, Brother Samuel, sometimes you can
-
put something on you and she tell her Daddy and Mamma, Nope, Dad,
-
ain't hold ess.
-
I gotta go change. And Brother Samuel and sister Megan,
-
your children have good natures. It's interesting, every one of
-
them have good nature. But you two.
-
Can refine that, develop that grow it, shape it into
-
something even fighter where you two could mess up and
-
corrupt that good nature. Jesus felt like each onlooker needed
-
to change and become like a child. They needed to
-
be humble, teachable, trusting and loving.
-
Or y'all with pastor.
-
This is what I see in that child, Jesus would say, right,
-
the child is humble, the child is.
-
Teachable, the child is trusting, and the child is loving.
-
Brother Jesse one day says to how and I'll be
-
going and somebody else will be moaning. The models for
-
Bethel Hones's church, my sons and their wives, my daughter
-
and her husband. Their children will be set fourth an
-
example to others. Right and brother Rokeb. I was so
-
parding last night because God gave me confirmation. I've never
-
ever heard Madison's scream. I've never heard of madison scream.
-
I've never heard Madison cry. She's a sweet baby girl.
-
All of y'all's kids are sweet children. We got good natures.
-
Her brother Jesse.
-
When they went to leave my place yesterday last night
-
around ten olock, I heard a blood curdling scream.
-
Coming out of their.
-
Vehicle and sister whoop and I supposed that it would
-
have been Maria that didn't want to leave pop up
-
and Natalie that didn't want to.
-
Leave me me.
-
I supposed that it was my buddy Simon that likes
-
to climb up in my lap but look at me
-
and smile.
-
I supposed it was one of them kids.
-
And brother Samuel, after about five or seven minutes, you know,
-
five to seven minutes in his vehicle, come over and
-
tell me by and I said, who was that?
-
He said it was Madison.
-
I said, my sam I didn't know she had that
-
in her Yeah, he said, well, for the most part.
-
She doesn't. But you're right, it's in her.
-
I said, well, Uncle Phillip's got about nine hogs over there.
-
Seven of them were a ferrel, wild pigmots. Two of
-
them are domesticated pink pigs. And I said, you get
-
over there.
-
And grab a hold of one of them. They go
-
to squeal and scream and pitching a fit.
-
And I said, that little baby that's four months old
-
sound no different than one of them feral hawks. I'm
-
talking about blood curdling the scream. I said, I didn't
-
know that baby had those kind of lungs in her body.
-
We are one movie.
-
Away from our good natured child being a wild child.
-
We are one bad example by a first lady or
-
a sister or a mother of Israel walking.
-
Into church to take a good child and make them
-
a wild child. We are one moment.
-
From that child having a good spirit to that child
-
having a horrible spirit. We're one moment away from that
-
child's visit being a pleasic visit.
-
To it being an unpleasant visit.
-
Brother Jesse, concerning this immodesty that is becoming prevalent in
-
the Holiness movement, they sow to the wind, they're gonna
-
reap the whirlwind. But I've come to the understanding that's.
-
What they want.
-
The heart of man is deceitle, above all things, desperately wicked.
-
Who can know it? Some people beating themselves.
-
Up black and blue because of that wicked heart, while
-
other people try to chase and fulfill the dreams of
-
that wicked heart.
-
And I'm telling you thus, saith God. In that pastor's bosom,
-
there is a wicked.
-
Dream that he is waiting to be fulfilled. And God
-
knows what's in this dad's heart. God knows what's in
-
that man's heart. God knows what's in that baby's grandparent's heart.
-
Talk to my sister Hall and I God knows what's
-
in each person's heart.
-
In this building today. I said, God knows what's in
-
your heart.
-
And God is pulling you out of this congregation or
-
somebody that's listening and.
-
Letting you know that you are solely responsible.
-
You are so responsible for molding your model. A blind
-
Canadian poet wrote these words, lover of children, walking in sunshine,
-
laughing in the rain, Lover of children, make me young again,
-
Climbing in the treetops, running down the shore, Lover of children,
-
make me young once. More vigorous and daring, teachable in
-
my old Lover of children, Make me like a child,
-
trusting in your goodness, walking where you leave. Make me young, indeed,
-
make me young enough to know that alone I dare
-
not go through the darkness of the night. Make me
-
young enough to see your love will never let me go.
-
Make me open to surprise. Put wonder in my eyes.
-
Make my vision clear and bright. Make one willing to
-
be lad and to follow where you bid me to go,
-
fearing not tomorrow, trusting you today, Lover of children, make
-
me young, I pray.
-
In that eighteenth chapter, Sister Woot, Jesus spoke to those
-
that would be a bad example to little children.
-
He said, if you calls one of these little children,
-
brother Sam and sister Magan, may that get in your
-
crawl that you get to the place you can't stand
-
the thought of somebody planting a macket in that mind?
-
Oh my, how that would preach the maggets of the mind.
-
Because I'm convinced now that people know what they're doing
-
when they walk in front of them little children. And
-
I'm telling you this generation of holiness people, for some reason,
-
they have a problem drawing a line into sand. They
-
have a problem with separation, they have a problem with
-
taking a stamp.
-
I've mourned all day long.
-
Yesterday until my physical heart ached. I told Sister Howise said,
-
I never would have dreamed that there would have been
-
a day that the preacher that just stands for what
-
we've always stood for would be criticized, ridiculed, and mocked.
-
My problem wasn't the fact of being persecuted, but I
-
expect that persecution to come from the world.
-
My problem is with the.
-
Trickery and the betrayal of all of the things that
-
we stood for all of these years.
-
I told the how it was last night. What are
-
we supposed to pretend like God didn't deal with.
-
All of us thirty something years ago about immodesty?
-
I was supposed to pretend in life that.
-
Revival that trends planned us from a carni mine to
-
a holy mind had.
-
No significance in our spiritual journey. Are we supposed to
-
pretend life that my meeting that brought about.
-
Our conversion and our sanctification and our holding this baptism
-
was an accidents?
-
They come, I mean, that's what I'm trying to tell you,
-
That they.
-
Want us to act like our pastor means nothing. They
-
want to act like whatever we've got we can just
-
distart it as though it's a piece of trash. We
-
can't throw away sell btram, we can't go away the
-
teachers of yesteryear. We can't talk it out as that's
-
a piece of trash. That's what my concern is about.
-
How can they.
-
Walk away from knowing the truth and doing the truth
-
and supporting the.
-
Truth and preaching the truth and act like it never happened.
-
We're not talking about a great grandmother, right that's a
-
nominal church or attends the first Bampus of Atlanta. Are
-
y'all listening influencing her? But when a Holiness grandmother.
-
That has stood up in a Holiness church is that?
-
I thank God.
-
I quote for the old timeway. I thank God for
-
the narrow way. I thank God for the straight way.
-
I thank God for the door. I thank God for
-
him saving my soul. I thank God for him sanctifying me.
-
I thank God he took a desire to be like
-
the people in this world out of me.
-
When they walk in that door, immodest, you need to
-
see that it.
-
Is a womp in wolf's clothing. They did not store
-
in to Macy's.
-
That gown did not fly off the shelf for the wrecks,
-
It did not fly into their arms, and not land
-
on that cannon. He did not put itself in that bag.
-
He did not draw itself hold. He did not get
-
put out of that bag. And Hongka in that closet.
-
He did not chuck on that senior Persuadey's body.
-
That Sunday morning. There it was dilically. I just don't
-
want it in teaching them mad.
-
The models. They want to change the face up of
-
the church.
-
And it has begune I'm telling about they hold in
-
this church. We gotta keep on it made it up
-
the models everyth this generation. Somebody that they head say
-
that ain't a God.
-
I said alone.
-
It said alone that he sting the old.
-
That's not ta tire. You learn about Cheery Howell wrong.
-
But a year later God dam with her heart and
-
she's never done it again. Oh my god, just a
-
how they don't seem to be discerned at all about
-
morning peparating the models, people conducting themselves who like this,
-
dressing up like this, acting.
-
Like this, Do you feel like Jesus would pull them
-
out of a congregation and present into.
-
That great call of witness and glory and say this
-
was the model of a saint. In the year twenty
-
twenty five, I think not.
-
People are afraid other just he to say that's not
-
of God.
-
Just ten years ago, every preacher that called himself a
-
whole of this, a Pentecostal preacher that is of the world,
-
and that is a foul spirit manifested. In fact, only
-
ten years ago, that preacher would have been totally altogether
-
this fellowship. Because I know Church of God assembling God
-
women and men that wouldn't do something like that, that
-
are punching holes in their ears and wearing ear rings
-
and wearing chains around their necks and their wrists and
-
their ankles. I know Baptists women, they wouldn't even consider
-
getting close to that area with a hemland My Baptist
-
great grandmother never even put on a pair of pants
-
as far as I know. I never saw her in
-
an immod's blouse. In fact, as to how and I
-
took care of her in her latter years, not too
-
long before she died, And when I walked in the room,
-
Brother Thomas Terre me not being the kind of person
-
that a lot of these perverts apparently are, me being
-
one that come in blessing and turning my head, my
-
face turning red, not want to see great Grandma.
-
In her nightgown.
-
When I came in, she said, Honey, I don't close
-
that door, because I just know one day I might
-
have to scram charity in Jerry and become help me.
-
I want you to hear me while I'm sleeping and
-
you're sleeping. I'm so concerned that you won't hear me
-
unless I leave this door open. My brother Roquet I
-
knocked on that door and sister him and I gave
-
her an opportunity.
-
Hey, Grandma, I'm here and I'm having up.
-
Feeble hands reaching down for a sheet, and i'd hear
-
say these words, it's okay, dream Me come in now.
-
And when I came in to kiss her good night,
-
she pulled the sheet up to her chin, and I'd
-
lean over and kissed her on the forehead and said,
-
Grandma just wanted to see that you need something, And
-
she said, no, Dream, I believe him.
-
Okay.
-
I said, I love you now, Honey, she said, I
-
love you, And brother Jesse, she said.
-
Can you give him a spit cup.
-
I said, yeah, I hand her spit cup and my
-
snuff dipping spitting Great Grandma looking up, she's in here,
-
nineties there.
-
Grandma loves you. You know you're special to me, don't you.
-
I say, yes, ma'am.
-
We say it together in unison because we have the
-
same part of day, Brother Nathaniel, my snuff dipping and spitting.
-
Grandmother didn't wanna be immodest married to a cigarette smoking
-
Baptist preacher. And apparently Sister Meghan and Brother Samuel, your
-
children are gonna have to be raised in a generation
-
that they call themselves holding us. They called himself Pentecostal,
-
but they think nothing of reshaping the models. I feel
-
the witness of the Holy Ghost in this place. I
-
love children. The Bible said, Lord, children are inheritance of
-
the Lord, and the fruit of the womb.
-
Is his reward.
-
May I say, someone raised these children that the Lord
-
Jesus used as examples.
-
And as marvels.
-
Their parents had a tremendous responsibilities given to them when
-
those little ones were born. And Brother Samuel of Google
-
search quickly RESI uh revealed the meaning of your daughter's name.
-
A gift of God. Literally, y'all have been handed the molding.
-
Clay and Brother the same as sister Megga.
-
You two have a tremendous responsibility given to y'all when
-
the Lord blessed you with this child, and we're fixing
-
to do the parents vows with sister Howell. Sometimes more
-
damage can be done in a moment of calling something
-
something that's not somebody said, pastor, how did you get
-
to where you're at today, where five sons and one
-
daughter are saved, and where you have fifteen grandchildren that
-
are well behaved? How did y'all get to where youre
-
are today where there's no confusion. It's not that the
-
devil didn't try to get into a big family. It's
-
not the devil didn't try to make my children people
-
who dressed him modestly. It's not that the devil didn't
-
try to taint our testimony. It's not that the devil
-
didn't try to pollute the parents. How did we get
-
to where we are today? I'll tell you how well
-
we would visit places, and I knew people had been
-
bad influences and had been irresponsible.
-
Brother would and they had attempted.
-
By their actions and their dress and their worship to
-
reshape my kids.
-
When I got in the car, I dared to do
-
what this generation will not do, and I said these words,
-
they are non saved.
-
Can't meet and speaker or whomever if their standard was
-
not right and their spirit was off al little bit,
-
and they weren't concerned about virtue of.
-
Innocence and modesty altogether.
-
And you could sense that there was just a bend
-
towards something unrighteous and impure.
-
Jesse when you had asked me what about this one.
-
I spoke words that I dare say ninety nine point
-
five percent of people that they will not speak, and
-
that has been to the saving of my house.
-
They are not saved. And this is what I to
-
old sister Howell yesterday.
-
And I'm not wanting to talk to her about my burden,
-
but Sister Hannah, I said, this is how they've all
-
ended up in the same kettle. Nobody whatsoever wants to
-
say this is the model. Jesus wasn't afraid Brother Thomasteric
-
to pull one out and say this is the model
-
and all of that. Ain't you become as this child,
-
You become as this little well behaved teachable humble, sweet
-
natured child. And brother Jesse, they were many times I'd say, Jesse,
-
don't look at that young preacher, look at brother don
-
rich But now there's a melting pot of different ideologies
-
and standards.
-
How can that be.
-
We're not talking about people that are coming from all
-
different walks of life. And Brother Gable, that's the mind
-
game they played with their simpleton parishioners. We all were
-
led into this. We were all brought into this. We
-
were all at different stages. We were all in different
-
stages of development, spiritual maturity.
-
We were all brought into this.
-
But if you step back and think about what they're saying,
-
Brother Richard Jacob, their sacred third generation holding us, that's
-
a lie. None of them they stole my testimony. A
-
lot of them were raised in it, We were coming
-
to it. The truth is some of them were walking
-
away from it. Big difference. But all I have for
-
your brother Sam and Sister Magan, and I feel it's
-
a burden given to me by God. Mold little Madison,
-
which y'all bring her up here at this time and
-
face the congregation. Thank you, Brother Nathan and Sister Rebecca.
-
If you will let them look at these little children
-
that have sweet nature. You know what will change that
-
nature faster than anything strong drink? Do you know what
-
will change the nature of these sweetness of the little children?
-
Quicker about anything?
-
Drugs?
-
You know what it'll take these little girls from looking
-
like holiness girls to women of this world. Just one
-
bad example, Mama, the grandparents, or this church or any
-
other church. Okay, Brother Nathaniel, I don't wish this upon anybody,
-
but today the Howell family is destroyed. Is today one
-
set of in laws, whether Howl or something else, decides
-
to walk a different way and have attainted testimony. And
-
when one of these Howl young men and that Edward's
-
girl says we're all the same, right, that will be
-
the dawnfall of the unity of the Howell family.
-
I feel this in my soul.
-
If it's Tracy that doesn't, or if it's Charity, y'all
-
remember this. There could be a day that I'm dead
-
and gone and you had to use your mama as
-
an illustration. My mama knew better than that. And she's
-
your grandma. She lives ten miles from here, she ain't
-
here this morning, but she's going to help. Sometimes it
-
hurts to say things that you don't wanna say. Could
-
be one day you're preaching and say, Sister Tracy said,
-
under our pastor Jeremy how she knows better, she's wrong
-
and she's heading to a doubles hill. Guys, when you
-
start drawing lines in the sand like that, they don't
-
want to go have Sonny's barbecue with you anymore.
-
It literally is the in laws and the outlaws at
-
that point, not because.
-
We want to be at odds or in adversity. David said,
-
I'm for peace, but when I speak, they are for war.
-
And I'm gonna tell you you start plunging that vneck
-
blouse down into the no nozone. It means war. It
-
means war. For Madison, it means war. For Mica soul.
-
It means war.
-
And I told Sister Howell yesterday, I said, I'm more
-
to turn and ever before to stand for what's right.
-
And I want to serve you.
-
Notice every one of you that have fled to the
-
Bethel hole in this church, not being cursed, not being
-
a coach, but because.
-
You were sick of compromise. It's time you wet your
-
finger and draw a light in the sand and say,
-
I ain't got nothing else to go back to.
-
That's the reason why you came here, because they had
-
a spirit of the line in the place. So you said,
-
if I build again the things I want's destroyed, I
-
make myself a transgressor.
-
And that's what I'm trying to tell each person in
-
this building today. Do you have it within you to
-
say what's in for all?
-
They practicimate on God, they compromise depending on swingest support
-
of the left.
-
It's not swung up, it's hinging. It's access.
-
Do you have one?
-
It takes like brother Ga and row to I trying
-
to go back. I trying to give him to bed
-
for the doctor. But it wasn't the same. That's how
-
I was raised.
-
What if the chip feeling your lot? What if your
-
parents are we're down here? What if you're family, you're
-
down here?
-
Why if they.
-
Weren't Quint saying his people what you didn't steal? Take us?
-
Stay?
-
Now?
-
What you still say had had to deal?
-
They sage. I'm talking all of it.
-
I remember that day Sister Howell said, I get it now,
-
I understand it.
-
Now they're going in a different direction.
-
But if brother Samuel's at work and the mama acts
-
totally different concerning things of standards of holiness when he's
-
at work. This she does when he's at home or
-
when he's preaching them, kids will be destroyed. It's the
-
same thing with Sister Howell that she had and the
-
fool he supported me and every time I took a.
-
Stand at the house. Now, listen, brother so and so,
-
he's a good man. I know your dad is zealous.
-
Here's what they like to say.
-
Are y'all ready we're still holding us? The Pentecostal preachers,
-
Blessed God, they've been telling lies on us. Blessed God,
-
we believe in on time holding us, Praise the Lord.
-
I'm tired of people lying on me, going that guy.
-
I'll get up in my pul pit tonight and I'll
-
review them. For one of them, I'll tell them they're liars.
-
I'll tell them they're lying on me. And then fruit
-
is fruit.
-
Right, facts are fact. The truth is known by the
-
fruit and the facts. And you look out there of
-
the congregation. Hey, their wife and husband swapping people on
-
the platform that got a noose thousand and it's still
-
attending the same church. And people that used to wear
-
things one way, now wearing them a different way. People
-
that used to have a certain standard now got a
-
different standard. I'm trying to tell you this is why
-
i'm your cussler, and this is why you came here.
-
Because I'm not a.
-
Praid to say they're not going to heaven, and they're
-
going to heaven.
-
I'm not as well going back to the Church of God.
-
I'm mightn't grow another at the end to the old
-
now just sup up time behind. I might as not
-
put the such leaves on again? Was it right or not?
-
Is it right?
-
Off? Not human?
-
God can do such things as these, is right. That's
-
what we're saying when we came out. I'm dealing with
-
the mindset right now. Sometimes you don't have to verbalize
-
it or speaking out like I'm doing right now, but
-
you sure out to support the one that's willing to
-
do it to keep you and your children from being confused.
-
You should have sit persecute. I ain't the person that's
-
willing to put that child on that bucket, but then
-
to mold it and show it what's wrong, it's wrong
-
and what's right as right.
-
You might want to sit there and go to it.
-
By ten dollars of testimony service. That's never standing up
-
and saying anything about holding us f anw You might
-
don't want to have to stand up testifying I say
-
God save my soul. You might know what I don't
-
want to be in example for your children to stand
-
up to say my family's doing.
-
A different way, but no, this is the wrong way.
-
When I think a.
-
Lot of y I'm not gonna God have I'm not
-
being us. They're not saying rog I'm not on down
-
to tell them, not failing that boll stand up my
-
test up.
-
Stand now, I here appeal save to say God save
-
my soul. If you know what such a mother's gonna
-
do if you don't tell them, they're gonna sit down.
-
These hold is changing to come up back this church.
-
That's why they're in the secondre in now. Because they
-
lost their sister Williams. They lost their sister house because
-
a lady. Those that get loud, they say it because
-
the lady doesn't speaking on the church, because a lady,
-
because of test the time, the lady doesn't shout ho
-
ho hold hold about aloha hollo.
-
A lady wearsn't e nothing house. The prench is coming
-
in the noble phone. The lady was shuts, they'll.
-
Come on now, A short short shorts shuts god short.
-
Pets hold up. The lady does have to know fuck
-
ahole doesn't.
-
Said trauma.
-
Comes call somebody on the poll.
-
I'll turn How did I said? If you ever do
-
that again, you have never seen your grandkids again. I
-
tell hold a girl, say to this place. I won't
-
say it again.
-
A promiscuous, delious, devilish, dody woman.
-
What are such a laughs?
-
M what are you doing?
-
Look at I looked.
-
You look upon a woman that lust. I don't lost
-
at the dogs. I don't lost that the trash. I
-
don't lost periods, never have.
-
Not natured that way. My question is why are you
-
nature to wear such a thing in the house. I've
-
got it saying there's some of your sisters.
-
You better start coming on glued in these full fits,
-
on these platforms, in these pews, you better start coming
-
on glue. I'm telling you better start praising the Lord.
-
However you've been molded, you may get. You better start
-
coming on glued.
-
You better let that mold they've broken. You better come
-
up whole.
-
Hey, my mommy taught me how to sit in church.
-
Really now, from what I'm seeing, your mommy taught your granddaughter,
-
her granddaughter's, your daughter's how to put a skirt to
-
the knee and wear pants underneath them. That's what a
-
great job your mommy died. That's your mommy's attitude and
-
her action's got your mommy where she's at today. And
-
that's what I'm trying to tell every person in this building.
-
Your attitude and your actions are going to take you
-
and your children to where your mommy's at today.
-
Moding the mode.
-
Y'all know why Rebecca asks the way she does, because
-
Nathan you ask the way he does.
-
Hold on. They so profound, they're so wise. They know
-
how lady conducts herself in church. She never gets crazy.
-
For Jesus, she never stands up for next sister, whoop,
-
She never act meanhow she'd never get in.
-
Never get in. Hey, hey, wait a minute, but look
-
at what's going on. Look at what they're doing.
-
Hey.
-
I knew my wife's mother, and she was with her
-
too much. She was gonna shape your mama. I said it.
-
I could be dead and gold and that could.
-
Come a day.
-
It sis the charity.
-
It'll never happened. I don't believe, but but it's there.
-
There could come a day twenty years from now. What
-
one is?
-
How old boy says, we put in crying and literally
-
vomited and so tore a minute, said, my mama knew
-
Betty than to come in this church like that. I'm
-
gonna tell you it's gonna be known. What wasn't were
-
made of other road, Captain, when it comes right down
-
to it. That's why there's so much confusion in this
-
holiness movement.
-
That's why there's so much confusion.
-
Our hoes, this preacher, this preatures, whether this preature, this
-
preacher is brother and the Lord, this creature or this
-
belong this preature. I want to sawy to get along.
-
But you know what, we better settle on truth. We
-
better settle o holiness, thoughts and we better sett alone.
-
Come on, testify.
-
We better set a sanctification. We better settle one holiness.
-
We better set alone truth and righteousness. We better settle somewhere.
-
If we doubts, this things walk. If we don't, Yes,
-
Salas Tarmar.
-
We pray for them.
-
Yes, Salas Tarmar, we pray about the me in with
-
holy issues. Father, You and I've been talking about that.
-
That is right.
-
All of this is indicative on a holy shoe. If
-
you're lost for us, they re purchase down.
-
To their ut.
-
You're gonna know she got a whole Locke persues her.
-
They're that piece of qualified. You'll be lucky if your
-
keep her. I said, you'll be lucky. Yes, she can
-
you keep her because.
-
She was raised in the household. Oh holyness, pleasure.
-
Mother told her she wants to learn that d It
-
makes you sewing somebody else here?
-
That chuch what she's gone? Who s on the show?
-
That's where we're at, And sometimes I get the feeling
-
with some of the people here don't know how.
-
I ain't saying call anybody. I ain't saying send any text.
-
I ain't saying start family fuse and start family fights.
-
But I am saying you limit your contact.
-
I am saying you don't expose your family to the
-
walls of the devil. I am saying you don't expose
-
your children to the wolf pack. Hey, you keep running
-
your little lamb on the perimeter in the outside of
-
a wolf pack, They're gonna pick it off.
-
I said, today, are gonna pick your little lamb off.
-
Well, come on, now, this is why I'm minimizes the
-
outside influence on my family.
-
If they got inward struggles and hard issues.
-
That come out by wearing pants under their skirt, by
-
the guys drinking.
-
That comes a dad hour.
-
You may or may not have to tell them, But
-
there comes a day an hour when you tell Rebecca
-
they ain't right. When there comes a day an hour
-
when you say you ain't riding with them. It was
-
eighteen years later the Howl boys told me of a
-
dirty joke. An old elder in this area who looked
-
hold in us had been whispering to them, dearing my
-
entire ministry. This woman would come and go. She always left.
-
It seemed like when the Holy ghost was about to
-
expose her, she knew when to leave.
-
You come back.
-
Eighteen years later, me and my boys are sitting outside
-
and they said, well, Dad, I guess now's a good
-
a time as any to tell you. We was little
-
tiny kids in the church and said at the church
-
we go outside and be told dirty jokes.
-
I said, why didn't you gonna tell me?
-
Then?
-
I sure could have used it when the devil was
-
telling me you shouldn't have preached like that. They want
-
nobody here guilty of that.
-
It'd have been nice if I'd had the knowledge that
-
that little old lady who'd been telling you all dirty jokes.
-
I feel the Holy Gods in this place. I'm not
-
trying to be long winded. I'm trying to break them
-
old molding, the models, because the truth is right now.
-
Natalie will ask the question, why is Uncle George and
-
his wife down here in Florida?
-
Why are they doing this?
-
Why is Uncle George and Aunt Connie doing this? Will
-
give her about living years and she'll say, I want
-
to do that. And when they turned thirteen, then they
-
say I'm gonna do that. Sister Whoop's crawling, crying, her
-
eyes out, falling, and he's falled there. It's interested that
-
she still looks the same now as she did when
-
I first saw her approaches while we were a street preacher.
-
Can the same be said about these.
-
People are talking to this point, I'm not attacking any individual.
-
Because I have mourning. I have cried over individuals. I
-
have mourning.
-
I have cried over individuals that spirits have manipulated and
-
missed up.
-
But I'm telling you, folks, something is that really the
-
direction we want to go in. Could you imagine if
-
Jeremy Howell.
-
Tells Charity go ahead and take the skirt to above,
-
the cat will have to put you some pants on
-
under it. All of you that want to give everybody
-
the benefit of the doubt, I don't know that there's
-
anybody here, all of you that want a fellowship, keep
-
in touch with all your former churches, and everybody's saved.
-
I just found a different way. What would you think
-
of me?
-
Because I'm about to tell you is going to happen.
-
I tell her to put these little tights on under
-
her skirt and put her skirt up to her knee,
-
and she starts doing her fingernails and cutting little things here.
-
And we're gonna expect you to say amen the same
-
way you say amen.
-
And them hypocrites up the way.
-
We're gonna expect you to say glory to God the
-
same way you say glory to God, and they get a.
-
Prince say I do believe in holdiness.
-
I ain't gonna expect you walk out his church and say,
-
oh my God, my pastor's backsliding. I don't expect you
-
to say, you know what, he's a Great Man of God,
-
by George, don't you pull out a double standing on
-
me and Thomas Stare at if we have a meeting
-
tonight and at we say we're taking our wives into
-
a looser direction, don't y'all have a behind the closed
-
door meeting and try to crucify me and Thomas Stare.
-
I'm being sarcastic of course with us. Stare that smart
-
elk I could hear to talk all over Florida, y'all
-
here Brother Howell his church here has sister Kathy's sister
-
Charity are addressing. Now y'all hear about hand and faith.
-
My question is that what y'all want us to do?
-
Y'all want us to fall into that, because every time
-
we hear you've ran off here and there and you're
-
saying hey, brother, hey, says thir.
-
That's a slap in my face. Every time you do that,
-
you swap the daylight side of me. Every time you
-
do that, you tell me you fled to this church.
-
Because you didn't fit in, because you want to live
-
holdliness and you want to live the standard, and you
-
came to a place where a man supports the standard
-
and where a man.
-
Preaches at it. But then you get on the poll
-
where somebody that's got that knee lake start life and
-
as him to pray with you.
-
That is a slap A hold myself out stuff, adeezing me,
-
stuff adeezing me. I would like delawship too. I would
-
like to sell my cane a pew two. I would
-
like to say amen to a guy that the somewhat
-
preach too. I would like to go to a pastor ten.
-
Years ago two?
-
But how is that pastor's wife living, how's that family living?
-
It swapes me to my knees. At the time, I hear.
-
Brother, so and so, that's not what your self when
-
you got here. When you got here you say, are
-
a hippophet. You're talking about all the off that hasn't slumping.
-
You're talking about all their nutury on the pocaly You're
-
talking about all the hypocrisy.
-
You're talking about all the joy. You talking about a
-
cross millage. He's still off holding us. He's still one
-
man that can stand.
-
It's all I can be to come here and preach holiness.
-
When I've heard you've been out of the Bible. Up
-
the road, hey brother, her sister, her.
-
Brother, her sister. I thought it was canture. I thought
-
it was contagious. I thought it was deadly.
-
I thought there was a reason why you.
-
Just had to be here.
-
Because with your half brother and sister shugned me up
-
to their inches Sabia for their hostages, sign up for
-
their play check.
-
Then you want to drop pad, I'll take their house
-
avail a k a church.
-
H that's something that some people would like to defile,
-
and some people would like to hold a treasure, and
-
some people would not want to commit to the standard
-
that you'll hold or to the lifestyle y'all keep.
-
But it's a beautiful thing.
-
You'll have a beautiful family, and don't ever be determined, deterred,
-
be determined.
-
Any Let's let's stay in church a prison. Ask you
-
to pray with us, with us family. But Jesse, if
-
you have to cancel.
-
Vers and home service today, I mean sometimes these things happen, or.
-
Go in there and get know just for a minute
-
or whatever.
-
I hope and I pray and I trust that we
-
will all until Jesus comes believe the Bible is right
-
and that it is the textbook for all Christians. But
-
unfortunately not every everybody is going to keep the sayings
-
of this book. But I'm gonna tell you to his parents,
-
what's you'll hold in your hands is priceless. And here's
-
where I give you the good news. I honestly believe
-
that you two have all the children. I honestly believe
-
they're well behaved. And I tell Mimi all the time,
-
I say, Began is doing a great job raising our kids.
-
So I believe in you, Samuel, and I believe in Mabel,
-
and I believe you're doing a great job as well.
-
By the saying mother, she spends the better part of
-
the day with these kids. But the devil must to
-
mess up what you're holding, what you're making. And y'all
-
just know this that there's about eighty people here this morning,
-
and believe this is a beautiful thing. And this is
-
the most unusual, out of the ordinary baby day medication
-
I've ever done it. But I'm trying to tell y'all something.
-
The devil wants to mess.
-
Up what you're moving. And I don't know how he
-
would do that. I don't know who he would use,
-
but I.
-
Know as sure as I live, he wants to mess
-
and mix this up. So y'all just keep that in
-
mind in the days ahead. I don't know who he
-
would use what he would use in the days ahead.
-
Don't allow the devil to do that. Y'all are doing
-
a beautiful work with his kids. Okay, we'll enter the
-
bowels and committals here.
-
