Well, why don't we praise him?

Why don't we praise him?
-
Oh, my God, why don't we praise him?
-
Aymen?

Why don't we just give God some praise in this house?
-
Any worthy to be praised? Hallelujah. We do think and
-
praise God this morning for being here a man, being
-
in the land of the Living God is all right,

He'll bless you far greater than you could ever ask

-
thanking and praising God for yet another chance, another opportunity,
-
another privilege to live and get it right before God.
-
Amen.
-
Hey, aren't you thankful that God didn't let you go
-
down in your seeing?
-
Amen?
-
But yet gave you another opportunity another day to give
-
Him praise and glory another day.
-
If you ain't turned yourself over to Him, you can
-
do it now. He's so gracious and merciful. We can't even.
-
Fathom the patience that God has with us. Our patience
-
can't even compare. But yet He tells us to have patience.

So we think in praise God this morning. I'm gonna

There, say amen, Saint John chapter eleven. Let us pray. Father.
-
We want to thank you, Lord, thank you for this
-
privilege and opportunity that you would even dad let us
-
be in such a holy God's presence this morning.
-
But yet you care.
-
So much for little o' us, so much so that
-
the angels are even confused about how much you care
-
and love us.
-
But we thank your Lord.
-
Sometimes we wonder why you love us so much, but
-
yet you do, and we thank you God that you
-
do love us. We appreciate you, God, and when we
-
don't show that appreciation, Please forgive us.
-
Father, in the name of Jesus, we come to.
-
You, God, would bow down heads and hearts.
-
We come humble God before thee in the.
-
Name of Jesus Christ, asking God, if we said, or did,
-
or acted or thought anything that was not like you.
-
We ask right now that you forgive us that we
-
may stand right before your throne of grace and mercy.
-
For you said to come bold before your Lord. But God,
-
we only want to come bold in the midst of
-
humility and humbleness of spirit, and the fact that our
-
heart is right with you.
-
We ask God that you.
-
Open up our eyes and ears today, use your servant,
-
use those lips of clay to speak your words by
-
the help of the Holy Spirit, opening up the minds
-
and the hearts of those that are listening all over
-
the world, and those that are listening right here in
-
your house.
-
And it is in.
-
Jesus' name, God, we asked you all these things. Let
-
your spirit, Let your spirit fill this house richly, and
-
every temple in this house be filled with overflowing And
-
it is in Jesus's name we ask that you even
-
rebuke the devil. That we'll get an understanding and all
-
our getting this morning from you Lord, and that we
-
won't be confused, Lord, and that the enemy won't grasp
-
by attention that will stay stadfast to hear a word
-
this morning that will help us in our salvational walk.
-
In Jesus' name, I pray, thank God, Amen and Amen.
-
Tell the Lord, thank you somebody, thank you, Jesus, hallylujah.
-
Today I want to talk about.
-
The same thing I talk about every Sunday, Amen, because we're.
-
Here for that purpose and for that purpose only. Amen.
-
Not only is it all about him, it's also all
-
about us.
-
Are you hearing what I'm saying? You may be seated
-
in the house of the Lord. You know, sometimes you
-
can get so frustrated in life it can cause.
-
You to cry. Sometimes life can be so frustrating. It
-
can cause you to cry. It can be so frustrat
-
It shouldn't cause you the custodough if you said amen somebody,
-
but it can't.
-
Cause you to cry, and it can't cause you to
-
act frustrated.
-
Amen. And when you know.
-
That you have done all you can do, and done
-
all you know how to do, and all that you
-
can and know that you have done your best, and
-
people still don't believe you, they don't believe.
-
You have proven yourself over and over.
-
But people still don't believe, especially people close to you.
-
Let me put emphasis on that. Amen.
-
And you know what you telling them exactly will help
-
them in life or even save their soul. But yet
-
they still won't believe you. You know, when you're telling
-
them to go right and they still want to go wrong,
-
you're telling them there's danger in that direction.
-
But there's hope in this direction.
-
You tell them, and you tell them because you're telling
-
them what have saved their life.
-
Amen.
-
I'm saying all this to say that Jesus Christ has
-
done this very thing.
-
Amen. And if you would look with me. In the
-
Book of Saint John, chapter.
-
Chapter eleven and verse thirty three, it says this he said,
-
signifying but that he should die.
-
The people answer.
-
Him, we have heard of the law all that Christ
-
abide forever.
-
I'm sorry. I'm not where I need to be. I'm
-
not where I need to be.
-
That was good, though, but I need to be. In
-
John chapter eleven and verse thirty three. John Saint John,
-
chapter eleven, it says, when Jesus therefore saw her weeping,
-
This is what I want to get to, because I'm
-
talking about how we can.
-
Get so frustrated that it can cause us to cry.
-
It says, when Jesus therefore saw her weeping, and the
-
Jews also weeping, which.
-
Came with her.
-
So she was weeping, and some Jews came with her
-
that were weeping, and they were weeping.
-
For a particular reason. It says he grown in.
-
The spirit and was trouble talking about Jesus When Jesus
-
therefore saw her weeping, and the Jews also weeping, which
-
came with her, he grown in the spirit and was trouble.
-
And said, where have you laid him?
-
They said, unto him, Lord, come and see. So they're
-
gonna lead Jesus where they laid him.
-
So Verse thirty five says Jesus wept.
-
These were tears, maybe of sorrow, maybe because of the
-
un belief, but Jesus wept. Jesus may have been troubled
-
by the excessive sorrow.
-
Of the mourners.
-
Are by Martha and Mary, limited faith, the general unbelief.
-
But even more so he.
-
Was angry at the power of death because his friend
-
was dead, Lizarius, which was man's ultimate enemy. That is
-
our ultimate enemy, that is our last enemy.
-
That Jesus is going to destroy. Amen.
-
If we look in the book of First Corinthians, chapter fifteen,
-
and we look at verse twenty six to make sure
-
I'm looking at.
-
The right verses time.
-
If we look at First Corinthians chapter fifteen and verse
-
twenty four, it says, then came the end when he
-
shall have delivered up the the kingdom to God, even
-
the Father, when he shall have put down all rules
-
and all authority and power, For he must reign till
-
he has put all enemies under his feet, all enemies.
-
The last enemy verse twenty six that shall be destroyed
-
is what?
-
What?
-
The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death. So
-
while there was amongst him all of this commotion and
-
the loud wailing of mourners.
-
Jesus whipt. He showed his human side, He showed his
-
passion for us. So what made him cry? The Bible
-
said this is the shortest.
-
Verse, or is not the Bible? But folks say this is
-
the shortest verse in the Bible.
-
Which it is?
-
Jesus wept? Why did he weep? Why did he cry?
-
Why? So? What made him cry? Was it the love
-
for Elizarus?
-
Was it the presence of sadness and death? Or was
-
it the faithless grief that surrounded him? Whatever the reason,
-
the situation caused Jesus to shed some tears. Did Jews
-
believed his tears to be a sign of his great love.
-
For Lazarus.
-
They believed that Jesus wept and frustration and sorrow that
-
he had not arrived.
-
In time. I arrived earlier, which he could have in
-
order to heal Lazarus. But that couldn't be true, right there?
-
That could not have been so?
-
Why because he had power to raise the dead. Jesus
-
showed that he has enough for us to weep with
-
us in our sorrow, in our limited faith, even our unbelief.
-
Jesus won't so much for us to love him as
-
he loves us. And this love consist of us trusting him. See,
-
there's no way you can say you love Jesus.
-
Many say they.
-
Love him many, but they don't trust him.
-
So in essence, they don't love him. See, they go
-
hand in hand.
-
There's no way you can trust him without loving him
-
and love him without trusting him.
-
Many will say I love Jesus. I can answer everyone
-
of y'all in here. You love Jesus?
-
Say yeah everyone, and you're gonna say yeah, But do
-
you trust him? Love consists of us trusting him and
-
believing in his word.
-
Jesus has done so much for us.
-
I'm just gonna drop these notes on y'all this morning,
-
because this is these notes God.
-
Spoke to me.
-
He says, I want them to be thought provoked, thought provoking.
-
I want the very words that I give you this
-
morning to cause them to be thought provoking, and it's
-
not strange. My niece and nephew and their children stopped
-
over this morning before they go headed back to Antiearch
-
outside of Notxville, and I was talking to my nephew
-
and I was telling them about love and friend You
-
can't separate them, can't separate You can't be somebody's friend
-
with I love him. You can't love them without being
-
their friend. I'm talking about the agape love. There is
-
a friendship that's associated with a filial love that's not
-
a friendship. Those people are associates, they're our friends. So
-
this love that we're supposed to have is supposed to
-
be consistent of trusting him as well as loving him. Hey, ma'am,
-
because He's done so much for us, more than we
-
can even know, the unseen that we don't even know.
-
He's done for us in the time that we have
-
lived from then to now.
-
God has done more than you can even calculate for you, Amen,
-
And a lot of us don't even use, and I
-
mean a whole lot of us, we don't even use
-
what God has done for us. He's given us so
-
much in this life, and a lot of us don't
-
use what he has given us. Would he give us
-
what he give us? Pastor I'm glad he ass He's
-
given us faith to believe. The Bible says he's given
-
every man to measure faith. He's given us faith to
-
believe in him. And what he has already done for us.
-
He's given us peace.
-
He said, peace, I give them to you that the
-
world don't give.
-
I give.
-
He give us peace to stand in the midst of.
-
Our storms of a life. And some still choose to
-
be shaken. But it gave you peace. But yet you choose,
-
I said, you choose.
-
See either you're gonna choose the peace he's given, how
-
you gonna choose to be shaken?
-
It's either He's given us.
-
Joy that the world can't understand, but we are still
-
showing conditional joy. I'm gonna be joyful today, but maybe
-
not in a few more minutes.
-
But see, the joy of God and the peace of
-
God is eternal.
-
It's always at all times, always at all times.
-
He'll get that after while. But yet we choose.
-
Not to conceive this joy that he's given us, that
-
the world can't understand.
-
But we still choose to be conditional.
-
With this joy over here we go. He's given us
-
self control. I'm a sea lie on that one. He's
-
given us self control, and.
-
We still some of us choose to go off. Even
-
though he's given us self control, we choose to still
-
go off. M mine, mine mind. He's given us love
-
that the world don't understand, and.
-
We still putting conditions on the love he's given us.
-
And there are no conditions on God's love. His love
-
is unconditional. His love says no matter what. The world
-
love says it matters what. But God's love says, no
-
matter what. We still putting conditions on, conditions on the
-
love that he's given us.
-
And then he has given us life. Hmm, this is
-
this is powerful.
-
God has given us life so that death can't take
-
us out. He gave us life so that death can't
-
take us out, and some.
-
Of us still refuse to live. Looks like it's thoughtful, folk,
-
So I can see.
-
I don't know about you, but out of all of
-
this God has given us.
-
He's given us faith to believe, peace, joy, self control, love, life.
-
He's given us all these things. So now I see, Lord,
-
why you would weep? I see now why you would weep.
-
After all he has.
-
Done for us, we still have not taken hold of
-
what he really means to us. See, they didn't take
-
hold of what Jesus really meant. That's why they wept
-
so bitterly when liz Is dyed.
-
See, they didn't.
-
When he even when he told him he said, he
-
said yeah, she said, yeah, we know we gonna see
-
him getting in the resurrection Jesus and he had on glasses.
-
He said I am the resurrection, because he did say
-
he was the resurrection.
-
But yet we choose to go the opposite and take
-
hold of what he really means to us.
-
He is life, he is joy, he is peace, he
-
is self control and faith and hope.
-
That's who he is. And if we.
-
Take hold to who he is, we can take.
-
Hold to all of that, but most of us.
-
But most of all, he is our way back to
-
the Father. So you really need to take hold of
-
him or you ain't gonna get back.
-
So I guess, But I really don't have to guess.
-
If I was him, I understand why he would have
-
whipt or why he would cry. And I cry too, Hey, man,
-
I would cry too. If I've done everything I know
-
to do to give you life and you still.
-
Wanted to die. Yes, I would cry. So I say
-
today to everyone.
-
In here, truly accept Jesus Christ into your life, and
-
let your life prove out without a doubt that you
-
have accepted.
-
Him and you believe in him. And I believe this
-
that Jesus, if a tear fell behind that.
-
From his eyes, it will be tears of joy and
-
not of sorrow.
-
Amen. Because love is all that he asked of us.
-
And when we.
-
Have the same love, not just love, but the same
-
love that he exemplifies to us, to show.
-
To him and to each other.
-
Because to Jesus it's virtually it's virtually important to him
-
and very dear to his heart that we show love
-
to one another, because he says, this is how you
-
prove to him.
-
You want to prove to Jesus Christ that you love him.
-
I said, you want to prove to Jesus Christ that
-
you love him?
-
He says, this is how you prove it by the
-
love you have for your brother. If you ain't got
-
no love for your brother, you're proven to Jesus you
-
don't love him. I'm just repeating.
-
I'm just the ups Federal Express for the Lord just
-
a messenger. Don't get mad at me. I'm just telling
-
I'm just saying what he said.
-
You don't love me if you don't love your brother,
-
that's what he said. Well, I don't hate him, I
-
just dislike him.
-
That's a sifting trick of the enemy. Because you're still
-
out of order. God didn't tell you to.
-
Just like him. He said love your brother.
-
You won't make yourself comfortable and say I don't hate him,
-
I just don't like him that much. Well, he ain't comfortable.
-
You're only comfortable in your own eyes. But your feet
-
are to be hot. You gotta be feeling hell because
-
hell is hot. See, because you're still in a disobedient state.
-
Because he said to love, and.
-
There is no deviation from it. There is no little bit.
-
See the Bible says, a little levit, a lump, even
-
a little levity. You got to have it all, not
-
a little hey man, somebody, because love is all that
-
He asks for us. And when we have the same
-
love that he exemplifies, and show it to each other
-
and the world, but first us, then his tears will
-
stop flowing for the wrong things, and tears of joy
-
will flow from his eyes.
-
Can you do that for him. That's a question. Can
-
you do that for him? Since he's done so much
-
for us.
-
I don't want Jesus to weep sadly sortly if he
-
weep on my occasion. I wanted to be all joy
-
because he's so proud, because he's so proud of his son,
-
he's so proud of me. Bring in terms of joy. Yeah,
-
I been so proud of your kids.
-
You just boy, I'll tell you, look at that and
-
get wooa. She just do it. Oh my god, I'm
-
so proud of her. See, that's what I want Jesus
-
to do for me. That's what I want Jesus do.
-
I don't want you, good, God, don't kill him, you know,
-
a chest lord, I plead with you to say.
-
No, want all that happen. M no, no, no, no no.
-
I want Jesus. Look at him. Look look at him.
-
Gods well done, look at him.
-
Faithful, Look at her, God and faithful, look at her.
-
Everybody, just take a look. Don't just just feel good
-
to you. See that's what I want. That's what I
-
want God to do for me. That's what I want
-
Jesus doing. He my advocate. You know, it's personal. That's
-
what I want him to do for me. Amen. Now
-
what you want him to do for you is up
-
to you.
-
I can't make him do for you what I want
-
him to do for me, because see, by the way
-
I live and the things that I do will cause
-
him to do that for me.
-
Amen.
-
Since he done so much for me, like dying so
-
that I could live, you understand, Hey, man, he done
-
so much for me, like dying on the cross, being
-
beat worse than an animal, or all he did for me.
-
Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, he done so much
-
for me.
-
I just want him to be proud to me. I
-
want him to know.
-
I appreciate the cross, you understand, by living my life
-
holy and acceptable unto him.
-
Yeah, that's what.
-
I want to do, because that's all he really asks
-
of us is to love it.
-
That's all. To love him, seek.
-
First the Kingdom of God and his righteousness, that all
-
things be added unto thee. That's just to loving, that's
-
just a loving. He just wants us to love him,
-
and that means we must trust him and have faith
-
in him no matter what life deals.
-
Out to us.
-
You see, life has a purpose for us. Life will
-
make a break our faith. Life will make and break
-
our trust and love and him.
-
But I trust the Lord and my son still die.
-
You're supposed to stop trusting because your son died. Your
-
son gonna die, You're like you gonna die. You and
-
you suppoted stop trusting because you want you praying for
-
him to live when it was time for him to go.
-
Don't no man know the day of the hour he
-
told you that you mean you don't remember that you
-
don't remember he gotta go at some time, No man,
-
no dad, that I wish you up said with God.
-
About he told you it was gonna happen. What you're
-
mad about. I'm just saying he told you what you
-
mad about. You gotta trust him even now. The preacher
-
he lost trust in God.
-
His daughter died in a car accident, a true story,
-
sixteen years old, just got a license and everything driving.
-
She loved the Lord told you all this story.
-
He lost faith in God and trusting God because his
-
daughter died. It was her time, her life exemplified Jesus Christ.
-
Two people at her homegoing came up and gave their
-
life to the Lord at her homegoing.
-
Are you hearing what I'm saying? How many time you seen.
-
People come get the like to God at a homegoing rare,
-
But thirty two came up, young folks of thirty two.
-
That's saying something. It was time we lost faith to God.
-
He's the pastor of the church. He could come into
-
church what you've been preaching all these times. I'm just
-
letting you know just how detrimental this trust has to be.
-
There's a man who preached for decades about Jesus Christ
-
and his daughter died in a continent. Thirty two people
-
came up and got saved, and he still didn't ring
-
a bell in his head. See, you gotta when you
-
love him, you gotta trust him. See the problem with
-
is that we want to say we love him and
-
trust him as long as he's doing exactly what makes
-
us happy.
-
And that ain't true love. I trust. Yeah, don't hear
-
what I'm saying. That's not true love. I trust because
-
see again, here we go. He said if you follow
-
after me, you will have sorrows. Miss that scripture. See
-
you gotta be ready. You lose trust with him because
-
you don't know him. But when you come to.
-
Know him, how do you even trust other people when
-
you say I don't know you, But I'm trying to
-
get to know you. I'm trying to get to know you.
-
I'm trying to get to know you. How you gonna
-
get to know him if you don't read the word
-
of God. This is how you know him.
-
This, this does what you won't do for everybody. This
-
what he tell you everything about him.
-
You ain't gonna tell everybody that everything about yourself to everybody.
-
This been my friend for fifty years. Yeah, man, but
-
I ain't know you. I ain't know you did that night, jan.
-
But Jesus tells you everything about it. If you want
-
to get to know me, that's a difference. But you
-
got to get to knowing. That means we gotta trust
-
him and have faith in him.
-
No matter what.
-
Life deals out to us, we must hold on to
-
the hope we have in Jesus Christ.
-
Amen.
-
Let me say that again, no matter what happens to
-
us in life, we have to hold on to the
-
hope that we have in Jesus Christ. Because the things
-
in life come to shake your faith, to toss you
-
off your God, to mess up your focus.
-
That's what life wants to do.
-
But you got to hold on with a rock wild grip,
-
pit bullhol.
-
I didn't say hang in there. I said hold on.
-
You ain't gonna be on no cliff like this with
-
two fingers. I'm trying to get up there. You gonna
-
be up there like this, trying to pull yourself out.
-
You gotta hold on. You can't hang in there. Talk
-
to people all the time. I'm hanging in there, preacher, Well,
-
well you wanna have some problem, Doc, I'm holding on. Yeah,
-
put my teeth in it. If I got to hold on.
-
Hey man, hey man, you got to hold on to
-
the hope in Jesus Christ with everything in you, just
-
like you hold on to something in life that you
-
deemed to be so precious to you. You got to
-
hold on to him more than that. Some people love
-
their dog more than they love people. Some people love
-
their children more than they love anybody, the love they
-
love their own hubs than the wife they messed up
-
in the head.
-
See, you got to hold on that.
-
You got the hold on the Jesus Christ with a
-
rock wild grip more than you could love anything in
-
this world. You got to love him more than that,
-
more than your wife, more than your husband, more than
-
your children, more than your card.
-
And your house. You shouldn't be loving all that anyway.
-
But I'm just saying, you see this message.
-
When I wrote it, when God inspired me by the
-
Holy Spirit, it made.
-
Me feel sad.
-
I felt sadness because I began to think of all
-
the so called preachers who claim to be doing ministry
-
in the name of My Lord and.
-
Savior Jesus Christ.
-
Made me sad because they lie us and they're causing
-
people to fall short of the lies that they're telling
-
about My Lord and Savior.
-
They're just using him for money and power.
-
Their preachers on the internet, right, people, they ain't even preachers.
-
They on the internet trying to get.
-
A license to be a pastor of a preacher for what?
-
For money. I didn't go on the internet to get
-
no license. God gave it to me.
-
I wasn't taught through theological theological schools seminaries.
-
I wasn't taught by no man.
-
I wasn't taught by man's doctrine, by man's ideology. I
-
was taught strictly by the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ personally.
-
I know this word because God gave it to me,
-
not no man. I didn't go to college. I didn't
-
go to school. I went to the Bible and God
-
taught it to me. You know why, because God is truth.
-
He told me that the Holy Ghost. Does the Holy
-
Ghost sound like theology school, does a stand like man doctrine?
-
He said that the Holy Ghost will teach me all things.
-
That's what God told me. I trusted him. I believe it.
-
And because I do, I know him. I don't just
-
know of it. I know his word. Do I know
-
all about it?
-
No? Still learning? Am I the great? I am? No?
-
Am I all this and all that?
-
Because of that, no people approach me and say he
-
know that word? Boy, I said, I don't know nothing
-
except Jesus in crucified.
-
That's what I claim.
-
I don't know nothing except Jesus in crucified. And the
-
next thing I tell him, all that I do know
-
is because he gave it to me.
-
And if he gave it to me, he'll give it
-
to you. Don't look at me like I'm a wonder.
-
But they get in this word and they're articulating the
-
word for money and for power and for fame. They
-
want to be famous. They won't be famous. Look at them.
-
They brag about their fame.
-
And don't love him at all, because if they loved him,
-
they wouldn't bamboos the people. And if the people loved him,
-
they wouldn't listen to the preacher and believe in him. See,
-
God ain't never told you to believe in me. There's
-
no one in this Bible he told you to believe
-
in me. And just like the prayer this morning, is
-
that the Lord would use me. I sat down and
-
he stand up. I like to hear that stand up
-
in me.
-
Lord. Let me set down.
-
Now, let me sut down so you can stand up.
-
Because I don't want to tell you nothing that don't
-
come from Him. And if you believe that I said
-
something that just shakes you up, you better go home
-
and look in the Bible and see what I said.
-
I said that God said it is true. That's what
-
they did in corinth Right, you think it's two books,
-
the second to first and second CORINTHA. Paul was prey
-
to the people. Is that what the script the scribe said?
-
Is that what the mater? Yeah, that's what he's saying.
-
He said, right, he said that too. They checked it.
-
They checked it with the inspiration of what God said.
-
All scripture is given by inspiration all scripture were talking.
-
About a white man wrote it?
-
Oh, scripture was given by inspiration of God. And you
-
can't say a white man wrote it because all those
-
folks that wrote it wasn't white.
-
No way.
-
It wasn't black either, So don't go cheering. Negroes wasn't
-
black or white. But I'm sad because these folks don't
-
really love him and they're just using him. But really
-
they don't understand till they own downfall. Hey man, They
-
just want what his name can do for them. You
-
think Jesus ain't weeping over this? If it makes me sad,
-
it makes him sad. And the reason why it makes
-
him sad because he lives in me.
-
It's a really.
-
Sad The real sad part about all of this is
-
that they are all gonna go straight to Hell on
-
an Amtrak train going ninety miles an hour with broken brakes.
-
If don't you don't you.
-
Just love it as an if finite, that's an if finite.
-
See if is a very small word, but it's a
-
conditional word. They're going if they don't change their love
-
for him, and some of them are not going to
-
change their love because they've been given over to a
-
debate mind. They're not gonna change their love, and they're
-
gonna wind up in hell. And they're gonna wind up
-
in hell like the mother folks talking about then't now
-
didn't I prop side your name? Didn't I cast out
-
demons in your name? Then I do mar and wonders
-
in your name? Lord, and Jesus gonna do like this.
-
Is that you don't I don't know you. Matter of fact,
-
not only do I don't know you.
-
Here's bad part about it. Here's bad part that I
-
don't know you. Part that don't hit as hard as this.
-
I ain't never known you.
-
Not only do I don't know you, I've never known you.
-
Who say you prophesied in my name, cast out demons
-
in my name, do wonders and miracles in my name?
-
I don't know you. I ain't never known you. I've
-
never known you.
-
See, these people have believed the lie, so they're gonna
-
go to hell with the lie.
-
But when they go to hell with the lie.
-
Reason gonna kick in, just like the rich Man and Lazarus,
-
the reason gonna kick in, and they're gonna go, Lord,
-
I need you go tell my family.
-
About this place, and Lord gonna say, they gonna get
-
the same thing you got.
-
Damn get no more either, don't get the prophet in
-
this book. That's it either they gonna take heed to it?
-
Are they not? Just like you did?
-
You didn't getting nohing special because you recognize you in hell.
-
See when you in Hell, they don't stop for you. See,
-
there's two eternities. They ain't just one eternity.
-
People talk about eternity, they thinking about the eternity of heaven.
-
There's a hell eternity too, And it does the same
-
thing as the heavenly eternity does.
-
It never stops.
-
But it's the opposite of what it does that never stops.
-
There. See, the joy and the peace and the happiness.
-
And the gladness is eternal in heaven, and the pain
-
and the suffering.
-
And the sorrow and the torment never stops in Hell.
-
And again I said, I always have to remind y'all,
-
if you go to Hell, you're broke in.
-
You did some breaking and entery. I read it to
-
your last Sunday.
-
The Bible said that God made hell for the devil
-
in his fallen angels. He said he prepared the place.
-
He didn't just make it. He prepared the place, prepared
-
it for the devil and his fallen angels, just like
-
Jesus said, I go and prepare a place for you.
-
You that are saying, see so that place is prepared
-
for you. If I prepared the macaroni for Lisa, he
-
ain't for Tony.
-
It's for Lisa. Well let me have something now, because
-
it's prepared for Lisa.
-
You can't get none of this. If you get something,
-
you stole it.
-
It wasn't for you. It's not yours. So hell belongs
-
to the devil in the fallen angels. If you go,
-
you broke in. You broke in, You didn't kick the
-
door in.
-
You want to get in there so bad toe place
-
tot doe dawn because you only go to hell because you.
-
Want to a lot of people like to argue that point.
-
You're gonna argue all you want. If you live a
-
hell les you life, you think you're going to heaven.
-
Don't even sound right.
-
Live a hell that's life, going to hell, Live a
-
holy life going to heaven.
-
Theah that's Himply.
-
So, the people who are not loving him for himself,
-
but for what a man says about him, are not
-
loving him, and the fact that all that he's done
-
for us, here's a kicker, and I'm done.
-
There are those that.
-
Know him, God said, so he said, although you know me,
-
that means they.
-
Know God said, they know him. What can I say?
-
He said, you still want a baby.
-
You still won't love me. You still won't keep my commandments.
-
You still won't love me. You still want to walk
-
straight line. You still won't love me, you still want
-
You still won't love me.
-
You still won't love me. Although you know me, you
-
still won't love me.
-
After all I've done, you still won't love me. I
-
went through a living hell for all of y'all, and
-
you still won't love me. That's enough to make me cry.
-
I went through all of this. That's backtracking.
-
He was portrayed, he was dragged away, he was slapped
-
and spit on and beaten and lied on. He went
-
from one place to another to find out what to
-
do with him, and then he was crossed out by
-
his own people, the church, the own people, the nation crossed,
-
the nation crossed the mountain, and then they took him,
-
and they made a thorn.
-
For a crime. And I don't know if you've ever
-
seen this crown.
-
But I have and the thrones of this lawn, and
-
you can break them off and nail wood together.
-
Y'alln't hear what I'm saying.
-
These thrones ain't brittle, they don't bend. You can take
-
them and nail wood.
-
Together with them. The crown that they wrapped.
-
And put on his head, they ain't just put it.
-
On his head, though, they.
-
Pressed it on his head, so the thorns went through
-
his skull.
-
He was already suffering before the whooping. The beaten put
-
it in your mind.
-
And then they walked him to the pole where they
-
strapped him to beat him. And they supposed to give
-
him thirty seven stripes. They just trying to figures they
-
gonna whip him to the.
-
Law of the Roman or the law of the Jews.
-
So they did both of them. And they wasn't supposed
-
to beat him like they did.
-
He told him how many stripes to give him, but
-
they went overboard whow because the devil got in him.
-
And that wasn't whip wasn't enough, the little.
-
Leather whip hitting him tap tap, oh yeah.
-
So they said, let's get.
-
This one a cananine whip bomb metal in the whip
-
part and every time somebody say, every time that whip
-
hit his back, it pulled me down of him. Oh yeah,
-
this wasn't that little slaves belt. But they whipped slaves
-
with him, and they hit him and left them stripes, and.
-
They hit him so many times it broke the skin.
-
After so many times.
-
Every time this hit his back, it broke the skin
-
and poured the skin off his back. Canadine whip was
-
made out of metal and boned, and when it hit
-
him it grabbed and yanked. He lost so much blood
-
he was weak carrying across. Then an African from the
-
northern part of Africa, Simon, came and helped him carry across.
-
Scared the depth would help him carry it anyway, ain't
-
got no new what you may hold back up all.
-
We would have thought it was over, but it wasn't over.
-
They took him to Cavarry god Gotha. They laid him
-
down on the cross and nailed him to it.
-
Hands feet together. You thought it was done then, but
-
it wasn't. Then they lifted up the cross. They ain't
-
just lifted up and set it up real nice. There's
-
a hole in the ground, and they lifted the cross.
-
Up and slammed it in the ground with him nailed
-
to it.
-
Imagine the pressure on your body.
-
First, you beat the depth. They didn't clean him up,
-
for they put him on the across. They didn't fix
-
his wounds.
-
And in my conclusion, if I had done all that
-
for you, I would cry too.
-
Amen. Give God a hand clout of praise. Somebody tell
-
him thank you. Stand up and give God some praise
-
in his house. He's worthy to be praised. You need
-
to open up your
-
Mouth and tell him, Hallelujah, Thank you Jesus, Glory to
-
your name, Lord, Hallelujah.
