-
Thanks for checking out the anchor Faith, Message podcast
-
from st. Augustine Florida.
-
Now, enjoy this message. Well, are you ready to receive
-
the word today? Amen.
-
Today I want to talk to you about separate and this is two
-
parts as I was studying this morning.
-
It's going to take us into next week.
-
And so I want to encourage you don't let Easter Sunday as most
-
call it we call it Resurrection, Sunday is your only time that
-
you're going to be here. Go ahead and come next week of,
-
we're going to follow up with this.
-
They meant. And so, we're talking about
-
being separated. And so I want to start over
-
Matthew chapter, 13 verses, T7, 250 because we're going
-
somewhere, I said we're going somewhere today, we're going to
-
show a little bit. Amen.
-
I believe that if you get Revelation, you'll want to shout
-
and it says it again. The Kingdom of Heaven is like,
-
the Kingdom of Heaven is like, you know, this is all Jesus.
-
Preached is the kingdom of God over 130 times.
-
He preached. The Kingdom of Heaven is like
-
this, and the kingdom of God is like that.
-
I mean, he was consumed with the kingdom, and sure he would be
-
since he's the king. Of the kingdom.
-
And he wanted people to know how his kingdom operates because at
-
the end, the only Kingdom that will remain is the Lord.
-
Can I get an amen? Daniel saw this in a, in the
-
dream, given to Nebuchadnezzar that this rock that was made
-
without hands would grow into a great mountain, and it would
-
take over the whole planet, it would crush every other form of
-
government, the only government that would remain was the
-
kingdom that God. God is setting up and don't, you
-
know, that kingdoms available today.
-
I said that kingdoms available today.
-
Well, how do we know it's available today?
-
How do we know it's not just a future event?
-
Now, when I say just a future event, it will manifest
-
physically. That is true.
-
There will be physical evidence of God's kingdom because Jesus
-
himself will come back to the Earth.
-
The New Jerusalem Will Come Out of Heaven to A New Earth.
-
So there will be physical. Cole evidence of his kingdom but
-
Jesus was telling his disciples when they say tell us about this
-
Kingdom Heats and I listened the it's not like here are there
-
like you're seeing it right now? It's within you.
-
How do we know it's within you? Because Jesus said, now, when
-
you pray, pray this way. Our father, whose father is that
-
your father? If Jesus is Lord, he's your
-
daddy to Our Father Who Art in Heaven.
-
That's where he lives. Hallowed Be Your Name.
-
Your Kingdom, your kingdom? Your kingdom, your will be on as
-
it is. So obviously the kingdom can
-
manifest in the earth now. It can manifest.
-
Now, it can manifest in character, it can manifest in
-
Behavior, it can manifest in demonstrations, it can manifest
-
in culture, it can manifest in power.
-
Come on. Are you with me?
-
Amen. So Jesus said in the Kingdom of
-
Heaven is like a Dragnet which was cast into the sea and
-
gathered in fish of every sort. When it was full men, dragged it
-
up on the beach and sit down and sort it out the good fish into
-
baskets. But the worthless ones, they
-
what they threw away. Next verse.
-
So we'll be at the clothes and consummation of the age, the
-
angel, say the Angels, say the Angels, the angels will go forth
-
and separate the wicked from The righteous.
-
Who's going to separate the wicked from the righteous?
-
Who's gonna do it, who's gonna do this, the Angels, those who
-
are upright and in right-standing with God.
-
That's the righteous and cast them.
-
The wicked into the furnace of fire.
-
There will be weeping and wailing and grinding of teeth.
-
Now, I'm just going to drop something on you.
-
I'm not going to expound on it, but I want to help you a little
-
bit. Jesus comes twice.
-
Three times actually, first he came born of the Virgin Jesus In
-
the Flesh. We call his name, what?
-
Jesus? But we know Jesus is going to
-
return for his church, but when he returns for his church, he's
-
not coming to the planet. He'll be in the air.
-
The Bible says will be caught up together with him in the air
-
caught up together with him. We're in the air.
-
Now, when he comes back, angels will come with him.
-
But there's another time he'll come and put his foot down.
-
Now, when he comes back to the planet, the Bible says his
-
Saints will come with him. So this Parable is not the
-
beginning of a millennial reign. All right, this is the catching
-
away of the church. I said it's the catching away of
-
the church. And so, when the Angels come,
-
they are on assignment because God knows who are the Righteous
-
and who are the wicked. Because when it says, furnace of
-
fire or wailing and gnashing of teeth.
-
Do you understand? The tribulation period, will not
-
be a great place. We all assume that's hell.
-
But the Bible has much to say about the tribulation and there
-
will be wailing and gnashing of teeth.
-
There's a second death called the Lake of Fire and that's
-
later, are you hearing me, alright?
-
So, we see, the kingdom of God is going to separate things.
-
The word. Separate means to mark off from
-
others by boundaries. I'm gonna say that again, it
-
means to mark all from others by boundaries to limit.
-
Now that doesn't mean you're technically limited it Means you
-
limit access. Are you a limit things from
-
affecting you? You set the limit.
-
Come on, I said you set the limit, you put up the boundary,
-
it means to separate. So, in a bad sentence, the word
-
separate here would be to exclude, which means you can be
-
on the opposite side, a separate the bad side, which means you're
-
excluded, they're going to people be people excluded from
-
being called up, They're going to be excluded, are you hearing
-
me in a bad sense? They're going to know something
-
took place. They're going to know that that
-
that the Lord pulled his on and they're going to be surprised
-
they didn't go. All right.
-
They're going to be surprised. Amen.
-
They're going to be excluded but in the good sense it means this.
-
It means to a point set apart for some purpose and we want to
-
talk about the good side today. Can I get an amen?
-
So Jesus says now listen I'm going to separate.
-
I'm going to create a boundary Amen.
-
I want my people set apart. There's a difference between my
-
people and the devil's people. There's a difference.
-
There's a difference between my people And the devil's people
-
are you hearing me? Let me put it this way.
-
Maybe we should go ahead and read it.
-
Second Corinthians 5:17. I just is coming up in my
-
spirit. I believe that's where it says,
-
that we are a new creature in Christ, right?
-
Put that up there on the board because I need to see this.
-
Amen, second Corinthians, 5:17, many understand this that
-
there's only two races of people.
-
There's only two, all right, there are many tribes and
-
Nations, but there's only two races, there are many tribes.
-
Herbs and Nations but there are only two races.
-
Okay. Second Corinthians 5:17.
-
Come on, y'all. Put it up because I'm gonna hold
-
out till you get it there. Listen, what it says.
-
Therefore, if conditional statement, anyone is in the king
-
Christ, he is a what, what is he, what is he new?
-
Say new? Say new, he's a new creation.
-
Old say old say old old things have passed away.
-
Behold All Things become. You're either a new creature or
-
an old one is only two races, the old creature and the new
-
one. In fact, the Bible calls us a
-
new man, doesn't call us a black man.
-
Doesn't call us a white man. Don't call us a brown man.
-
Don't call us again red man. Don't call us at yellow man.
-
Calls us a new man, you either new man.
-
Are you an old man? You either new or old?
-
Period and Paul. In his writing, I could go
-
anymore, says, I don't even regard man of cording to the
-
flesh anymore. When it comes down to it,
-
there's only two races of people.
-
Those that are children of the devil and those that are
-
children of God and God knows who are his I said, he knows who
-
are his because they think different, they act different,
-
they behave different, they function different They're no
-
longer bound to this outside, temporal World.
-
They live a totally different way, and it becomes transparent
-
to the world. With that being said, turn over
-
to Second Corinthians, chapter 6, verse 14 to 18.
-
Come on, let's get some shout on.
-
I'm going to read some of this out of passion translation
-
today. It says yes.
-
In fact let me just say this, somebody I heard said that the
-
passion translation was of the devil.
-
Well that's ignorance. First of all, all translations
-
you should read multiple translations at the end of the
-
day. Okay.
-
And again, if you read multiple translations, then you'll keep
-
yourself in a place of truth. Cause here's the thing, the holy
-
spirit is the spirit of truth, right?
-
And it's amazing, how people will become so asinine that all
-
of a sudden if you read one thing and they want to build a
-
Doctrine on something, when the reality is, none of them are
-
reading it in the original Greek nor will.
-
They sets it seated with the actual Apostles when they were
-
pinning it by the Holy Ghost, you have the Holy Ghost to end
-
you because I could go to multiple other translations.
-
Say that's not really a good translation when you go back to
-
the Greek or you look at it here and so God lets us know, if man
-
started to, you know, adjust it based upon his Doctrine or not.
-
Not, he tells us where we can't be intimidated in this capacity
-
but this passion translation actually got a lot, right?
-
And you know why they don't like it.
-
I can tell you why because it's a little too Kingdom Minded for
-
them. Because they like their religion
-
instead. Alright, so with that being
-
said, don't continue to team up with unbelievers in mismatched
-
alliances. For what partnership is there
-
between righteousness and Rebellion, who could mingle
-
light with Darkness? What Harmony can there be
-
between Christ and Satan? Let me go back up to verse 14.
-
Don't continue to team up with unbelievers in mismatch
-
alliances. The Amplified at the beginning
-
of this verse says it this way, classic translation says, do not
-
be unequally yoked with unbelievers, do not make
-
mismatched mated alliances with them or come under a different
-
joke with them. Inconsistent, with your faith.
-
Inconsistent. With your faith.
-
Inconsistent with your faith? The world's got nothing on me.
-
I said the world's got nothing on me.
-
This is why Paul saying listen we don't have mismatched
-
alliances with the world because we're not of the world anymore
-
he goes on to say in verse 14 or verse 16.
-
What friendship does God's Temple have with demons for
-
indeed? We are the Temple of the Living.
-
God, come on. Can I get a shout of Praise?
-
You are the Temple of the Living God.
-
You know I'm so tired of religious Christianity and the
-
traditions of religion that that Saints who have called on the
-
name of the Lord are waiting to be with God and God's like
-
don't, you know, I'm in you. I mean you I mean how close as
-
can we get I moved in? I moved in.
-
I mean I took up residence on the inside of you.
-
You are the Temple of the Living God.
-
Hallelujah! My mama!
-
He goes on. And says is just as God said, I
-
will make my home. Oh man, in them and walk it, we
-
trying to go to heaven and the Lord's like I moved in Are you
-
hearing me? We're like, I can't wait to get
-
to heaven and see Jesus. Well, I want to see him
-
face-to-face to but I hear him. His spirit is in me.
-
He talks to me, he spends time with me.
-
His say nature is in me. Wow.
-
And I don't have to be personally present in his
-
presence physically speaking. His presence came to me.
-
Hallelujah. For, I will make my home in them
-
and we want to make our home in heaven, the Lord's.
-
Like I'm already in you. Why are you waiting on me?
-
And walk among them. I will be their God and they
-
will be what my people whose people whose people your.
-
His people don't be talking about my people unless he or his
-
people. There's new people and there's
-
old people and we have the New Breed.
-
I said we're of the New Breed Hallelujah.
-
He says this. For this reason come out from
-
among them and be what What separate, right?
-
He's separating us. Come out from among them and be
-
separate separate says the Lord touch nothing.
-
That is unclean and I will embrace you.
-
Aye, aye. I will be a true father to you
-
and you will be my beloved Son and Daughter says the Lord
-
Yahweh Almighty. Now, here's the thing we stop
-
here and we think then God's finished with this discourse but
-
the reality is the first verse of the 7th chapter is a
-
continuation of This comment of this whole dialogue that we just
-
read here in second Corinthians, chapter, 6, starting what verse
-
14. So let me pick back up and 18
-
and then we're going to slide on over into the seventh chapter.
-
He said, let me go back to 17 for this reason come out from
-
among them and be separate says the Lord touch nothing, that is
-
unclean and I will embrace you. I, Oh, Hallelujah.
-
Okay, yeah, I'll say it then for this reason, come out from among
-
them and be separate says, the Lord touch, nothing, that is
-
unclean condition, meet the condition and I will embrace
-
you. All right, I will be a true
-
father to you, and you will be my beloved Sons.
-
And Daughters says, the Lord Yahweh Almighty beloved ones
-
with promises like these and because of our deepest respect
-
and worship of God. God.
-
We must remove everything from our lives that contaminates,
-
body, and spirit, and continue to complete the development of
-
Holiness within us. Are you hearing me?
-
So when God says separate, basically, he is calling you to
-
do. What he wants us all to be in
-
the world. It's called.
-
Holy go ahead and look, you never say, holy go ahead and
-
say, holy Now, holy is not perfect without fail, but holy
-
is separated unto God. And it's obvious, are you hear
-
me now? Why is it that we could do this?
-
Have you not? Do you not remember in Romans
-
chapter 8 verse 10 and 11? It says.
-
And if Christ is in you, the body is dead because of sin, but
-
the spirit is life because of righteousness.
-
See when we got born again, we became the the became the
-
righteousness of God in Christ. Our spirit man was made, right?
-
It's a new man. It's not the old man.
-
It's not a reconstructed. Oh man, it's a brand new species
-
of being all together. In fact, it's the original
-
species, it's the species that was breathed into the nostrils
-
of Adam. It was a spirit of dominion.
-
It was a Son of God, I knew how to rule and Reign.
-
That was one who can have dominion over the sin round.
-
Who had the ability to say, No to things that were contrary to
-
the word of God. Amen.
-
He put back in us. Our original spirit that God
-
always intended for man then he threw the Holy Ghost on the
-
inside cause verse 11 says but if the spirit of him who raised
-
Jesus from the dead dwells in, you does the same spirit that
-
raised Christ from the dead dwell.
-
Does he dwell within you? Well man.
-
What excuse do we have, when you've got the third person of
-
the godhead living on the inside.
-
He went, he got in bed with you, last night and helped you get
-
sweet sleep. He heals your body, he restores
-
your mind, you gives you peace beyond your understanding.
-
He is dishing out fruit constantly.
-
Oh my, he's the great comforter, he's The Advocate, The Stand by
-
the strengthener. I mean, that's right here.
-
Come on, hit your chest safe right here.
-
He's right here, right here on the inside.
-
Amen. Hallelujah.
-
Glory to his name. I'll say glory to his name.
-
Then after today. You understand you'll be
-
excited. When you're caught up together
-
with him, I get it, you know, to be with the Lord as far better.
-
I Stand to be removed from any form of rebellion.
-
I understand that. But when you know who you are in
-
Christ, and what he has separated you from that even
-
though your SKU still see it, you're like it don't affect me.
-
Cuz I'm a race. That is new.
-
Come on. Look at First Peter chapter 1.
1 Peter 1 chapter mention
-
First Peter chapter 1, man. I just want to read scripture
1 Peter 1 chapter mention
-
today. I didn't want it to resonate.
-
I want it to wash over your mind.
-
Oh man. I wanted to see you changed and
-
transformed, Hallelujah. First Peter chapter. 14, verses
-
1 through 24. Can we see this together?
-
It says, this, as obedient children do not be conformed to
-
the former lusts. Which were yours in your
-
ignorance but like the holy one, who called you be holy
-
yourselves. In all say all say all in all
-
your behavior because it is written, you shall be holy for.
-
I am Holy if you address as father.
-
The one who impartially judges according to each one's work.
-
Conduct yourselves in fear during the time of your stay on
-
Earth. Knowing that you were not
-
redeemed with perishable things like silver or gold from your
-
futile way of life inherited from your forefathers boat, with
-
what the precious blood, as of a lamb, unblemished, and spotless
-
the blood of Christ for he was foreknown before the foundation
-
of the world, but has appeared in these last times, for the
-
sake of you who threw him or Believers in God, who raised him
-
from the dead? And gave him glory.
-
So that your face say My Faith and Hope are in God.
-
Hallelujah, hallelujah. Now this word, holy means this.
-
It means separate from common condition and use Go ahead and
-
look at your neighbor and say I'm not coming anymore.
-
No, you're not common anymore. Not common, you're dedicated.
-
The Lord has dedicated you. I said he's dedicated.
-
You, he's dedicated you for a specific purpose.
-
He's dedicated you to do something great.
-
He's dedicated you because he's put his spirit in you and your
-
different race of people. He has separated you from that,
-
which separated you. He has separated you from that,
-
which separated you are. You hearing me?
-
Let me read this out of the message.
-
The message says it this way. Don't lazily slip back into
-
those old grooves of evil doing just what you feel like doing.
-
I'm resisting the urge to preach here.
-
Hallelujah. Oh my mama, don't lazily slip
-
back into those old grooves of evil.
-
Now in our own nature. Those grooves were easy.
-
Those grooves are what we did. Those grooves are how we ran.
-
We didn't know any better. It was our nature.
-
We had to, we were bound to a shackle do it.
-
We were stuck in it. We were oppressed by a
-
tyrannical, ruler who kept us down, beat down victims of his
-
system and his way of life we were doomed.
-
We were in destruction and he says, don't you lazily slip back
-
into that Groove, why? Cause you were proficient at the
-
examining situations that way. Looking at situations that way
-
reasoning, that way determining how you were going to respond
-
that way. I mean you got muscle memory on
-
how to go that way. But God I said, but God.
-
So we don't live like, how we feel.
-
He says, as obedient children, let yourself be pulled into a
-
way of life shaped by God's life.
-
A life energetic and blazing with what Holiness?
-
Say, Holiness, say, Holiness. Come on say, Holiness.
-
Say Holiness. God said, I am Holy you be holy.
-
I am Holy you be holy, I am. Holy you be holy and your
-
without excuse, when he's your Lord because he put in you a
-
spirit that already is wholly righteous separated set apart a
-
new species of being and can hear the Holy Ghost who moved
-
in. Who moved in and bears witness
-
with your spirit. You are a child of God, man.
-
I wish I could get some Smiles around here.
-
Oh man it's amazing looking at some of y'all's expression.
-
I don't feel like I can crack a smile out of some of y'all I
-
feel like I might start slapping some of y'all just slap a smile
-
on you. I mean it's like always so deep
-
in thought. I mean it's like when they going
-
to get free, I mean it just kind of messes.
-
How would this not put you in a smile?
-
And mo like my god, I've been set free man, he set me free,
-
I'm a whole new species of big guys on the inside.
-
Guys. On the is, you know, the guys on
-
the inside of me, he's on either side of me, that's used only
-
inside of me. God is only inside of me.
-
I got up in here. God is up here.
-
Right here. He goes with me.
-
He wants to me. He calls three my gosh man.
-
An that just make you smile. Now, obviously, if you're not
-
born again, you're going to be like Because you don't know this
-
energetic life wherein. Oh my mama, go ahead and tried
-
everybody. Just go get your dimple out.
-
I don't have dimples try, put your finger in it.
-
Then stick it in your cheek. All right, he said you called
-
out to God for help and he helps he's a good father that way.
-
But don't forget, he's also responsible father.
-
I wish we could get that 10. We like good father, but he's a
-
responsible father, he's responsible.
-
I said he's responsible. He, let his kids at like,
-
hellions. He let his kids are like,
-
hellions. He gonna come and talk to you.
-
He gonna come soon. The Holy Ghost to spend some
-
time with you. He will say what you doing, son?
-
Anyhow, you live that he has, you conquered then how you
-
overcome and now you say no more, he's responsible and don't
-
let and won't let you get by with sloppy living and you need
-
to learn that word when you get around your brother and sister
-
crutches, se you being sloppy right now, better watch out you
-
being sloppy, Right now, talking to me like that saying, those
-
kinds of words you being sloppy, when I was, how I feel you being
-
sloppy. He made me.
-
He said, don't get your old grooves where you can do what
-
you feel but I'm feeling it will you better feel something else?
-
Hey man. Hallelujah, don't keep standing.
-
I'll keep preaching. All right says your life is a
-
journey. You must travel with deep
-
consciousness of God it cost God plenty to get you out of the
-
dead-end empty-headed life you grew up in.
-
He called him plenty please and we got people want to trample on
-
the blood. It cost him plenty to get you up
-
out of your hip tea. Headed daddy in life testing for
-
the like a fire. Oh ma All right, Glory, I'll say
-
Glory. He calls him.
-
Plenty, he paid with Christ sacred blood, you know, he died
-
like an unblemished sacrificial lamb and this was no
-
afterthought even though it was only later at the end of the age
-
has become public knowledge. God always knew he was going to
-
do this for you is because of this sacrificial Messiah, that's
-
the Hebrew word for the king whom God, then From the dead and
-
glorified that you trust God. And that, you know, you have a
-
future in God. Come on.
-
Do you know you have a future? Do you know you have a future?
-
Oh, we're getting somewhere. Can I just keep reading the
-
word? All the word is good.
-
I mean, don't you want Jesus to talk to you, anyway.
-
verse 14. He says this.
-
Jesus. Now says I have given them your
-
message. Yeah, and that's why the
-
unbelieving world hates them. That's why they hate you.
-
I said that's why they hate you. That's why the unbelieving world
-
hates you. Hate you.
-
For their allegiance, is no longer to this world because I
-
am not of this world. He said, I'm not asking you to
-
remove them from the world. Now, why do I go here?
-
Because he said come out from among them and be separate.
-
Well, we can't come out from the world in the context.
-
We can't live. This is why everyone who took
-
that scripture and God off dr. Lee and started building their
-
own little compound and don't want to have nothing to do with
-
the world and I ostracize themselves from the world and
-
try to create their own little Heaven compound, mrs.
-
What God's saying? Jesus Christ walked among
-
Sinners. And yet, it did not affect
-
affect him. He just have the Revelation.
-
I'm not of them. Their Daddy has nothing on me.
-
They're dead. He has nothing on me cuz I'm not
-
from their daddy. My daddy is in heaven.
-
My daddy's father God. I don't look like them out.
-
Like them respond. Like them.
-
I'm in the same suit. They are.
-
And I have the same Temptations. They do, but I'm A different
-
race. I'm different and though I could
-
choose to go down the same path. They went down.
-
I will not. I will obey my daddy.
-
I will only do what my father says.
-
So he's saying father, I'm not asking you to take them out of
-
the world. Even though they're not of it,
-
they don't have to leave the planet.
-
I said you don't have to leave the planet, you just need
-
revelation. Of who you are in Christ and
-
what he paid for. The payment Jesus Paid for was
-
not heaven, was not heaven, I said it was not heaven, Jesus
-
died for my sins so that pay died and his blood, paid the
-
price for my sins. So when I die, I get to go to.
-
That is not why he did that, that's religion.
-
No, Jesus said I've come to destroy the works of the devil.
-
He did not say I came to take you to heaven.
-
Come on somebody. I said, come on somebody, I
-
guess we got some religion in here but that's alright, I'll
-
deal with it. No, he said I came to destroy
-
the works of the devil, the devil ain't in heaven.
-
I said, the devil ain't in heaven, the devil, when he was
-
trying to overthrow heaven got kicked out.
-
I'm said he got kicked out. Are you hearing me?
-
Yeah. Why.
-
Because what he did in heaven was against the law was against
-
the nature of God, was against the character of God was against
-
the Of God. And God says, this does not stay
-
in my Realm. Jesus said, I saw Satan fall,
-
eyeliner from Heaven. I saw that with my own two eyes.
-
I was there it was quick. I mean he showed up like talking
-
and dad was like, you've gone. That's it.
-
Like wow. Hallelujah.
-
So he says listen I'm not asking you.
-
To remove them from this world but I ask that you guard their
-
hearts from Evil for. They are no longer belonging to
-
the world. Any more than I do, your word is
-
truth. So make them Holy by the truth,
-
the Amplified of the 17th. Verse says it this way classic
-
version, sanctify them purify, consecrate, separate them for
-
yourselves, make them Holy by the truth.
-
Your word is truth. Verse 18.
-
I have commissioned them. Them say I've been Commissioned.
-
I have commissioned them to represent me.
-
To represent me. Now, my religious Christian stop
-
there. But there's a condition on how
-
you represent, okay? I have commissioned them to
-
represent me, how just as you commissioned me to represent
-
you, so you can't represent Jesus.
-
If you're not representing him the same way he represented, the
-
father, you can't do it. Which means Jesus represented,
-
the father by only doing what he says and resisting.
-
All forms of Temptation. Conquering them, beating them
-
down being more than a conqueror over.
-
Every time they showed up, it is written.
-
It is written. It is written.
-
It's not my character. That's not my character, that's
-
not my lifestyle, that's not my nature.
-
It's not my nature, so you're going to represent Jesus.
-
You're going to have to come into the world and say, wait a
-
minute, I can't do that. That's not my nature.
-
That's not my daddy saying, no, it is written.
-
He said and now I decided to dedicate myself and now I
-
dedicate myself to them as a holy sacrifice so that they will
-
live as fully dedicated to God. And be made Holy by your truth.
-
Do you understand? We have the capacity, the
-
capacity. You need to go back.
-
Listen to Wednesday, the capacity to be fully dedicated,
-
not partially. Not 3/4, not 99.9.
-
Well, I'm just human. I'm in a human suit but I'm not
-
just human. I said I'm in a human suit, but
-
I'm not just human. I am a new man.
-
My nature is in Christ. My nature is in the king.
-
My nature is like, God, my nature is in the first atom, in
-
the context of having Dominion before he fell.
-
He says this and I ask not only for these disciples but they but
-
come on, you're in the butt. But also, for all, say all all
-
those who will one day come on, did you have a one day?
-
I said, did you have a one-day who will one day believe in me
-
through their message? He said, I pray for them all to
-
be joined together as as one, even as you and I father are
-
joined together as Mama, I pray for them to become one with us.
-
Why? So that the world will recognize
-
that you sent me. There is more opportunity for
-
the world to be saved when we live how we were created in
-
Christ. When we live.
-
Who are we? I said, who are we?
-
Who are we first Peter 2:9? I'm setting you up.
-
I know. Hallelujah. 1st Peter chapter 2
-
starting verse 9. He says this, but you are a, not
-
a white race, not a black race. Not a Hispanic race, red race,
-
green race from Mars. Come on.
-
No, your chosen which tells me then there's only two races of
-
people. There's the Chosen and the
-
unchosen, The Chosen, and the rebellious, there's the new who
-
are chosen. There's the old who are
-
rebellious And in the rebellious race.
-
The old race. There's every tribe tongue and
-
Nation. But God being rich in his Mercy,
-
gave to all those tribes tongues and Nations.
-
The ability to call on the name of the Lord and to become a new
-
race. And in the new race, The Chosen
-
race, there's every tight tribe tongue and Nation.
-
What identify as us? It can't be what we look like on
-
the outside. Can't be from where we came
-
from. Can't be from how we were
-
raised. Can't be from what's going on in
-
our lives. No, there's only one thing that
-
is to identify. If I us and that is, are we in
-
Christ or not? Are we under and through and
-
past the blood or not? Are we living in Oneness with
-
the Lord? Are we separated from that?
-
Which separated us. Well I'm coming to it but you
-
are a chosen race, a royal priesthood I'm looking at
-
royalty today a holy a holy a holy now ears.
-
Every tribe tongue and nation that turns into one nation.
-
A people for God's Own possession.
-
So that you may proclaim the excellencies of him.
-
Oh, my mama who has called you out of what Darkness into his
-
marvelous life for it. You weren't.
-
We're not a people. You were not a people.
-
But now you are thee, your thee people not a people, you thee
-
you to people you see p the people of God you had not
-
received Mercy but now you have received Mercy.
-
Beloved, I urge you as aliens and strangers to abstain from
-
fleshly lusts, which wage war against the soul, keep your
-
behavior, excellent among the Gentiles.
-
So that in the thing in which they slander you as evildoers,
-
they may Because of your good deeds.
-
Meaning you just keep showing up in your lifestyle and character
-
of a king. as they observe your, kingliness your Holiness, your
-
righteousness, your sanctification, They will
-
glorify God in the day of visitation.
-
Let's read it out of the message.
-
Message says it this way, but you are the ones chosen by God,
-
chosen for the High Calling of Priestly work, chosen to be a
-
holy people, God's instrument to do his work and speak out for
-
him to tell others of the night and day difference.
-
He made in your life from nothing.
-
To something from rejected to accept it Holla.
-
Have we forgotten that we were rejected?
-
We were nothing. We were in darkness, but God
-
being rich in his Mercy, the day we call on his name.
-
He transferred from the domain of Darkness into the kingdom of
-
his beloved Son. Darkness became light rejection
-
became accepted bondage, turned into freedom.
-
Friends, this world is not your home, so don't make yourself
-
cozy in it. Don't indulge your ego at the
-
expense of your soul. Live an exemplary life among the
-
natives so that your actions will refute their prejudices,
-
then they will be one over to God sod and be there to join in
-
the celebration when he arrives. Oh, Glory to his name, I say
-
glory to his name. Y'all doing.
-
All right man. I'm tracking today.
-
I'm tracking. Here we go, Ephesians chapter 4.
Ephesians 4 chapter mention
-
Separated, man. I don't know if you've seen it
-
yet, but we fixing to bring connect all the dots that in
-
reference to your former manner of life.
-
You lay aside the old self. Which is being corrupted in
-
accordance with the lusts of Deceit.
-
And that you be renewed in the spirit of your mind and put on
-
the new self and put on, come on, hit your neighbors.
-
Say put on man, if you were at Good Friday, service eyes get
-
hit when Revelation came, you need to hit your neighbor, go
-
ahead, hit your neighbor, say put it on but my God man, put it
-
on, put it on, put on the new self.
-
What is the new South which is in the lightness of?
-
Do you know, God doesn't struggle with sin. which is in
-
the likeness of God and has been created in righteousness and
-
Holiness of the truth Oh my mama.
-
Oh my mama. Thank you, Jesus, Ephesians
-
4:30. I got so much to say, but if I
-
say it, I'll have to end service.
-
If he's just 43230 to jump down there, to Passion says it this
-
way, the holy spirit of God has sealed you and Jesus Christ
-
until you experience your full salvation.
-
So never grieve the spirit of God or take for granted his holy
-
influence in your life. See, that's why the previous
-
verse he says you got to lay aside the old put on the new.
-
Now let's break this down. That means when you confess
-
Jesus as Lord, you became a new man and the Holy Ghost moved in
-
and then spoke to your spirit says, you're a child of God,
-
you're a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, You
-
different now. So we go have to go get your
-
mind, right? Because you're not walking like
-
a king, you're not talking like a king, you're not responding
-
like a king your of kingly bloodline and I'm here to help
-
you wash your mom with the word. What was once not, you are not
-
able to hear or discern, I am here to turn the light on What
-
you wants couldn't do when you encounter something in the
-
Earth, because you could not reason it differently.
-
I have moved in to help you reason it differently and to
-
give you a Heavenly response, a kingly response, a chosen race
-
response. Are you hearing me?
-
So every time the holy spirit says, hope that's not us.
-
Don't grieve him by saying no I'm going to do that anyway but
-
that's your old self talking and he don't live here no more.
-
That's your old self talking and she don't live here no more.
-
We've picked it her. Remember your life's?
-
Not your own? So you think is not your own and
-
you need to hear me and do what I say.
-
Because I'm giving you life, you don't feel like life right now
-
what you're telling me to do its life, The holy spirit of God has
-
healed you and Jesus Christ, until you experience your full
-
salvation. So never grieve the spirit of
-
God or take for granted his holy influence in your life.
-
I'm surprised how many people take for granted His holy
-
influence in their life. You know, I read when I want to
-
pray when I want to go to church when I want to lay Assad.
-
Now, you got to do this. This is not a spirit issue.
-
This is a sole issue. Emotions situational
-
circumstances that has happened in your life time.
-
God does not erase your memory, although he forgets your sin.
-
God does not erase your memory, although he forgets your sin.
-
But he gives you the power to overcome your old thinking.
-
Why he's trying to separate your old way of doing things so that
-
you can be separated to do it his way.
-
He says, lay aside better worse. Temper, tantrums revenge
-
profanities and insults, but instead be what kind And
-
affectionate towards one. Another has God graciously
-
forgiven, you then graciously forgive one another in the
-
depths of Christ's love. Now, there's a comparison here
-
and he's saying, I listened, he said, now you got to get rid of
-
this bitter words, she got going on right here.
-
All right, you got to let that go.
-
You got to get rid of your temper, tantrums, your revenge
-
or profanity and insults. Which means when you feel like
-
having bitter words, when you feel like having a temper
-
tantrum, when you feel like taking Revenge when you feel
-
like profanity, T is coming up out of your mouth right now.
-
When you fight cussing, this thing through, are you hearing
-
me when you want to insult? Somebody that means the occasion
-
is there when you were the old man.
-
It has resurfaced in your life, but yet on the inside, he says,
-
let's do it this way, instead. Let's just go ahead and be kind.
-
Let's go ahead and have some affectionate towards the other.
-
Let's just go ahead. Remember, when you were in a
-
drunken stupid with the world and in darkness, you acted like
-
that. And God.
-
Forgave, you, son. You can be patient with this
-
person right now. You don't have to, you aren't
-
them. Anymore.
-
So you don't respond like how big.
-
Oh no you different. If you start cussing like they
-
cuss what they deserve it, everybody deserves to go to hell
-
be thrown into the Lake of Fire but God, forgave you now you
-
different. I said you different quit acting
-
like your old self. All right, I'm fixing to help
-
you out. Once again, we read this passage
-
and we think all we done but yet it goes right into the fifth
-
chapter. It carries on.
-
So with that being said, I'm going to go back a few verses
-
and let's read it again. I'm Startin 31, lay aside,
-
bitter, worse, temper tantrum Revenge profanity and insults.
-
But instead be kind of affection towards one.
-
Another has God graciously forgiving, you think,
-
graciously, forgive one another. In the depths of Christ's love.
-
Be imitators of God, in in, in, in, in, in you do?
-
Well, now in this situation, I should be to do what I want.
-
Be imitators of God in everything you do for.
-
Then you will represent your father as his beloved Sons.
-
Condition is conditional. Be imitators of God in
-
everything you do for them. so, if you're not imitating, God in
-
everything you do, Then you are not representing your father as
-
a son and daughter. Now that doesn't mean you're not
-
his son or daughter. Oh, y'all don't want it.
-
That when my kids make a mistake doesn't mean they're not my
-
kids, but they sure him representing our value.
-
They're not representing how we are to live.
-
How weird is Van how weird Act Now, you may be my son but
-
you're not represent me. So, you can't go in just
-
represent any way. You want her represent.
-
Not like you're a child of God and God's happy about it.
-
All right, praise the Lord. There's a Lord O My Soul.
-
All right, I'm ready to shut it down and continue to walk
-
surrendered to the extravagant Love Of Christ for he
-
surrendered his life as a sacrifice for us.
-
His great love for us was pleasing to God like an aroma.
-
Adoration a sweet, healing fragrance, and have nothing.
-
To do with sexual immorality, lust, or Greed for.
-
You are his holy ones? You're separate.
-
You got a boundary. And you said it sexual morality
-
couldn't control you. I was full of lust had to do it.
-
Oh Hallelujah, but now you can set a boundary.
-
I said you can set a boundary All right, he says this, you are
-
his holy ones and let no one be able to accuse you of them in
-
any form guard. Your speech for sake of Senate,
-
he's and worthless insults. These are nonsensical words that
-
bring disgrace and are unnecessary instead.
-
Let instead meaning, all those things are going to show up in
-
your mind. Going to tempt you again.
-
But he says, instead, let worship feel your heart and
-
spill out. And in your words for it has
-
been made clear to you already that the kingdom of God cannot
-
be accessed by anyone, who is guilty of sexual sin, or who is
-
in Pure or greedy for greed in s in the essence of idolatry, how
-
could you, they expect to have an inheritance in Christ's
-
Kingdom while doing Those things.
-
Cuz our father is responsible. Thank you Father.
-
He's responsible. Drop down to verse 15, verse 15,
-
says it this way. So be very careful how you live.
-
Not being like those when no understanding but live honorably
-
with true. Wisdom for we are living in evil
-
times where we live in an evil Tom's but we can man, have true.
-
Wisdom live honorably take full advantage.
-
Come on, say, take full of banter.
-
Take full advantage of every day.
-
As you spend your life for his for whose purpose, not yours.
-
But his, then he goes on and says, and don't live foolishly
-
For then you will have discernment to fully understand
-
God's will. So that's condition if you don't
-
live, foolishly means living like you used to live then
-
you'll have no problem Discerning God's will but if you
-
live in like he used to live then you struggling with trying
-
to figure out God's will. Oh my mom, he said and don't get
-
drunk with wine. Which is rebellion instead, be
-
filled with the fullness of the Holy Spirit.
-
Praise the Lord. Now I got a Bonus scripture, I
-
put on my notes. If I have enough time read, and
-
I have enough tongue. I mean, it's so early is going
-
to shock your mind. Don't look at your watch.
-
I'm going to do The New American Standard.
-
I'm going to go verses 1 through 11.
-
Romans chapter 6, verse 1 through 11.
-
We can bring this thing home now, connect, all the dots talk
-
about being separated, God has made you holy, he has separated
-
you from that which separated you You're either in the bad
-
sense of separate are, you're in the good sense?
-
One of the other, if you're in the bad sense, you're excluded.
-
What makes you think that you could live a life?
-
Just like the world and going to have access to the kingdom of
-
God? I know what they say.
-
Well, now pastor, this is not works brother.
-
I couldn't do anything to get saved.
-
I can't do anything to stay saved.
-
Well, you don't read your Bible? Jesus paid a price to give you
-
access into something. Then made you somebody with the
-
Holy Ghost and it's not to be toyed with and he's very
-
responsible about that. So you can allow your flesh to
-
deceive you that you can live any old way, you want to and get
-
in but Dad is not having irresponsible children show up.
-
I'm telling you. Pastor, we can't get that.
-
You have a lot to say about a lot.
-
It's amazing. How religion will take your free
-
will go and pull it away from you.
-
Tell me what sin did Adam have. God breathed into him, the
-
Breath of Life, he's perfect man in the image of God.
-
Did God said let us make man in our image, according to our
-
likeness. Do you think Adam was in the
-
image of God and his likeness? Do you think he was without sin?
-
Do you think he was wholly? Do you think he was righteous?
-
You think he was pure? Do you think he could have went
-
to heaven? Anytime?
-
He wanted to sure he could have there was no hindrances, but God
-
didn't need him to come to Heaven.
-
Cause God came down. I mean he was moving around
-
doing the will of God, no problem.
-
How did he let go of that? His Free Will denounce.
-
The Lord, I won't do what you say.
-
Oh, y'all want to hear this? That's fine.
-
I mean, it's YouTube right now. That's all right.
-
You can turn it off. You don't have to listen to it,
-
right? Because you want your religion,
-
anyway. But if you want the truth of God
-
then you'll know who you what you've been separated from in
-
the power, you actually have and you'd be like I'm tired of being
-
this deadhead life, you know, and making excuses for me to
-
live fleshly. Look at the end of the day,
-
living flesh, he still stinks, it still hurts, you know, and
-
I'm holding on and waiting to go to heaven, like, okay, God's
-
Grace has covered my life and even though I live like
-
everybody else and I couldn't do anything.
-
At least, you get to go to heaven, but boy, it sure.
-
Is stinking down here. Sure is rough.
-
It sure is tough. I mean, I can't get through the
-
devil's always pursuing me. Running me down.
-
How is hard out there? Pastor is hard.
-
Oh, I can't wait till he comes. Well, you can't wait till he
-
comes because you don't know he's already in you.
-
Oh yes, gonna get real good. Romans chapter 1, verse 6 are
-
6:1, what shall we say, then are we to continue in sin?
-
So that Grace May abound or may increase?
-
That's a question. Is there an answer first to make
-
exclamation point? Just to let you know?
-
So Paul would have sounded like this.
-
He gets a question from, you know, the church and the Roman
-
Church and he says can we continue in sin that Grace May
-
abound or may increase? And he's like may I never be
-
bad. May it never be.
-
How shall we who died to sin still live in it?
-
Well, I'm just so. Sorry sinner saved by grace.
-
Then you must still be a sinner and you haven't yet been saved.
-
Ouch. Yeah, I know, I know you got to
-
renew your mama, quit being Carl but you got the third person of
-
the godhead and I'm tell you people who made Jesus.
-
Lord, it's really not difficult. It's not hard.
-
That's it. It's not hard.
-
There's people in this room right now who really didn't go
-
to church, their whole life, but the men they got born again.
-
I started going to church, it just was in them to go and then
-
they just started following the word that was in them to obey
-
because they actually listen to the one that took up residence
-
on the inside and out. Her whole life began to change.
-
And he kept saying, do this different do this different.
-
They just yield and just did it, just did it?
-
Just did it didn't make any shoes to save?
-
All my God, I can't do it because you don't know what
-
Jesus, really paid the price for you.
-
Trying to go to heaven. That's your problem.
-
He said, or do you not know that all of us have been baptized
-
into Christ? Have been baptized into his
-
death. Therefore, we have been what
-
Barry? With him through baptism into
-
death. So that as Christ was raised
-
from the dead, through the glory of the father.
-
So we too might walk, might walk in the newness of life.
-
For if we have become United with him in the likeness of his
-
death, certainly just look a certainly, tell your neighbors
-
certainly certainly, we shall also be in the likeness of his
-
resurrection. No way that that old Self was
-
crucified with him, in order that our body of sin, might be
-
done away with, so that we would no longer be slaves to sin.
-
For he who has died. Is freed from sin.
-
Now, if we have died with Christ we believe that we shall also
-
live with him. Knowing that Christ having Oma
-
been raised from the dead is never to die again.
-
Death no longer is Master over him for death.
-
Leave this up now, guys, for death that for the death, that
-
he died. He died for us to sin once for
-
all, but the life that he lives. He lives To God even so consider
-
yourself to be dead to sin but alive to God.
-
In Christ. Are you ready?
-
Are you ready for the climactic? Conclusion of what God wants to
-
put inside you today? Are you ready for this?
-
Somebody come move this out of the way, cause I'll probably
-
break it. Listen to me, he said this, he
-
said he died the death, he died to sin once and for all he did
-
that. Are you hearing me?
-
Which means then the wages of sin is death.
-
He had is what brings death through.
-
One man's transgression, our Disobedience to God death in
-
her. The world sin showed up and sin
-
says, you got to pay me. Now, you'll have to pay me.
-
And death means separation. It means you're excluded from
-
the kingdom. The father comes down and said,
-
Adam, where are you? Have you eaten the fruit.
-
I told you not to and then he puts him out of the garden.
-
Why you're separated from me? You're on the bed since I'm
-
gonna have to exclude you from my garden.
-
I have to exclude you from my tree a lot after excludes you.
-
Now, I got to exclude you but I got a plan.
-
I got it. Plan because I had this plan
-
from the foundations of the world.
-
And this plan is this is that I'll send my seed through the
-
woman so that he will make a way.
-
So that man could get back into right alignment with me, what
-
has separated him, I will have Jesus come so that they can
-
leave sin and be separated unto God.
-
So what used to separate them now, they are separated from it
-
matey. That now that I'm born of God, I
-
consider myself separated are dead to sin means separated from
-
Sin, Sin done, Own Me No More Jesus, God not so I could go to
-
heaven, but so I could be separated from the very thing
-
that kept me, separated, from God.
-
So that which kept me, And beat down.
-
Broke it. Don't owe me, it.
-
Don't tell me what to do anymore.
-
It doesn't tell me how to respond.
-
It does tell me how to live. It can't tell me that the color
-
of my skin keeps me from getting somewhere.
-
It doesn't tell me because my parents abused me that I can't
-
go somewhere. It doesn't tell me.
-
That I'm worthless that I'm no good.
-
That I'll never amount to nothing.
-
It doesn't tell me that I gotta sleep with you.
-
I gotta sleep with you. I gotta sleep with you if I'm
-
gonna be satisfied. It don't tell me there.
-
I'm hurting and I better go find me a few bottles and drown this
-
stuff out. It don't tell me no more cause
-
I'm separated from it cause the blood of Jesus.
-
Let's see. Look, it's in In the face and
-
say it is red. It's red.
-
You don't know me. You can't tell me what to do.
-
No more. You don't have a whole new
-
species of him. I'm different I'm alive and when
-
people are clearly Devil's after me, well, tell him to shut up
-
come out because he don't own, you know, more he can't run you
-
down like a dog and beat on you anymore.
-
He may try to challenge you but when you I say, hey, you don't
-
know me. I'm a new man.
-
I'm in Christ. I'm the king of the earth and my
-
King has seated me in Heavenly places in Christ Jesus.
-
I have defeated you cuz he has defeated.
-
You are you hearing me? So Christ's blood has separated
-
you from sin at any time and when it crouches outside the
-
door you say you better get on. You better Gil when seeing
-
starts talking in your mind, you hear how they talking about,
-
you, you hear how they saying about you, you ought to see
-
this. You want to say this?
-
You want to say this? You'll say, but instead, but
-
instead the greater one, on the inner side of me, says something
-
else. And I'm gonna follow his
-
leading, cause I'm not like the world.
-
I'm not subject to that no more. It doesn't hold me by me.
