THE WORD OF GOD

Whoo. I was hurting for certain, y'all, don't hear what

I'm saying. I was hurting for certain.

I ain't been there in two sundays. I don't think

I could have took any much more. Well, I take

that back, I take that back. I actually did come

over here. Parking lot looked like a skating rink. I said,

ain't no where in the where I'm had nobody come

over here.

I said, I ain't even trying to dig this stuff out.

And still ain't you.

I can dig ot out the sidewater and still ain't

saying I can't dig up the whole parking lot.

And in that door you come in through, that.

Snow was about this high in that between those two buildings.

No ice was about that high. I had to skate

across to get through the door back there. Well, it

came so far as the door did opened up somewhere

where I could slide on in there. And I slid

right on in there. But I do thank God and

praise God that we're here today. Man, I think and

praise the Lord that he did give me wisdom enough

to even send the message.

Isn't it awesome?

Uh? The Lord said that we would do greater things

than he did.

Hey man. See see see Jesus have texting, he.

Have email, but he still could get a message to

you without having it. Hey man, I ain't saying we

discovered it. Amen, somebody, but.

Jesus give me one of those up right now.

Jesus allowed this, all of this, Uh, this kind of

this kind of prosperity is worthy. You understand what I'm saying.

To prosper in tech. In technology, then I was still

able to send a message to each and every one

of you, and I prayed that you are did continue

as though you were here in this house of God,

although you was in your house of God.

You hear what I'm saying, because I want you to

understand something.

Your house is God's house too, not just house. See See,

that's what people mess up. They come here and they

come here and they put on their idolatry, not adultry,

idoltry when they come in this building and they feel

like I gotta act right up in here because this

is the house of God. You understand what I'm saying.

But I'm here to tell you a secret. But if

you tell anybody I told y'all, just deny it. When

you get home. He there too in that house too,

that belonged to God. They ever hear what I'm saying.

The Bible says that of the earth and the foodness

thereof belong to God.

So your house is God's house. And when time come,

it's gonna be gone.

God don't take it all back and give you a

new place to live. You don't hear what I'm saying.

So it's all He is to do whatever he willed

to do with it.

Amen. Amen.

Amen, we do think and praise God for these newcomers here. Amen,

Sister taan an Amber and the Sonns. Hey man, we

know they not know, they know I'm messing. They know

I'm messing with them, mate, man, but we want to

thank God for them, uh coming in town and especially

coming to see uh come home, Amen somebody wherever they go,

this home right here, heymen. And we wanna we wanna

uh tell a sister Tan happy birthday. Look, as long

as you was coming, I can hardly remember your name.

But now that you're back for a visit, am, but

just blowing all up in my mind.

I got you. And here's a funny thing.

I called my wife a few minutes ago. Back there,

and I said, I couldn't remember her name. Ain't that backwards?

But then it came to me before I could ask,

I said, that's ten. So so let us let us all,

uh tell Tan, happy birthday? Amen, hey man, thank God.

You know, it was a time where I didn't even

consider even celebrating my birth date, you know, because whatever

reason it was.

But then when I.

Got saved, even when I got saved, I still didn't

consider it.

But I then I.

Begin to understand, by the help of the Lord and

the Holy Spirit of God, that how precious a birth

date is, you know, and everybody know I'm hooked on words,

so I had to write to divide that thing, you understand,

And I begin to understand that a birthday the birth

Your birthday is the day you were born, but the

birth date comes around every year as God allows. Ay man,

So I learned to say thing.

Right. I've always tried to say.

Things the right way because it's got to be word

on word, precept on precept, And this lesson is going

to be a part of even what I'm talking about,

you know. I was gonna say this today, but at

the end of the day, it's because her birthday, is

why I'm saying it.

But I used to call it a birthday too, But

it's a birth date. You know.

The birthday is the day you were born. But I

thank God for my birth date and the birthday.

Amen.

And that's the same thing I say about Jesus. Even

though they tried to say when he was born, nobody knows,

and it's really demonic the way they treated anyway. So

it's better not to even celebrate it that day because

it's the monic.

Amen.

But all I do know about Jesus concerning his birth

is this, I'm glad.

He was born.

I don't ever have I don't ever have to know

when he were born. I'm just glad you were born.

You understand what I'm saying. I'm glad he were born. Aymen, heymen,

let us pray.

Father.

We come once more again before you in the name

of Jesus, thinking and praising you for these services, Thinking

in praising you for bringing us back into the House

God again to sup together and to fellowship with one another,

and give you the glory and the praise. Even though

this never stops. Lord, not in just in this place,

but also wherever we are. God We'll give you the

glory and praise. But we come today all together and unity. God,

this day that you have allowed. We've not been in

this house for two Sundays, but you've been amongst us

and been in us even though we wasn't here. You've

been in our homes with us. God, you've been underguarden us.

You've been divinely protecting us as some of us traveled

on this snow and ice. And God, we thank you

in the name of Jesus Christ. But Ah, what a

wonderful day it is to be up and here today

altogether God, in the name of Jesus, and even thank

you for taying and thank you for him. But and

the family coming to pray with us and to worship you.

God in the name of Jesus and fellowship. Father, thank

you for the divine protection you cover them as they

come down the road.

In the name of Jesus, God, we give you the

glory today. Just glad to be here. God, in the

name of Jesus.

Now, Lord, open up our eyes and ears for the

fatherness of these services, that we may come into that

understanding wisdom and knowledge that you would have us to have.

If you have spoken in the Book of Colossians. Father,

in the name of Jesus, we thank you Lord for

your word. We thank you for your divine protection. We

thank you for your wisdom. We thank you for Jesus.

We thank you for your Holy Spirit.

God. We just thank you and Jesus Holy names. Thank God.

And the whole church said, Amen, Amen and Amen Amen.

If you would turn to the Book of Matthews for me,

chapter seven, starting at verse.

Thirteen. Chapter seven, Verse thirteen.

Today we're going to be talking about on the God's

word works for God.

Only God's word works for God. Only.

Somebody say, only God's word works for God.

Amen. Are we there? Amen? Amen. The Book of.

Matthew chapter seven and verse thirteen Ento, Ye end at

the straight gate, which is called the narrow gate. For

wide is the gate, and broad is the way that

leads to destruction. He talking about Hell. Now see the

straight gate narrow, but the braad gate is wide.

That's the gate to Hell.

And many there be which go in they're at that's

the sad thing, because straight is the gate.

How narrow is the gate.

Is the way which lead it into life, and few

there be that find it.

Oh that that's not that's that's sad, amen.

It's sad to know that some folks are not going

to make it, and that the truth of the matter

is some folks just not gonna make it. It says,

beware of false prophets. Beware of false prophets. Are you

hearing me today? Because they have filled up the earth

now which come to you in sheep's clothing, But inwardly

they are raving, raveling, raveling wolves.

Mm hm.

You should know them by their fruits, you know. It

really amazes me that all of these so called pasters

that are in these ministries and multi million dollar ministries,

uh vamboozling and hood winking and lying to the people.

And it's very it's mystical to me why they don't

see the fruit for the Bible saying you should know

them by their fruits? Do men gather grapes of thorns?

Are figs of thistles? Even so, every good tree bringing

forth good fruit, but a corrupt tree bringing forth evil fruit,

bad fruit. A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit,

it can't. A good tree can't bring forth bad fruit.

Neither can a corrupt tree bring.

Forth good fruit.

Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hening

down and cast into the fire.

Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.

Not everyone that saith unto me, Lord Lord, shall enter

into the Kingdom of heaven, But that do it the

will of my Father, which is in heaven. Many will

say to me, many, many, many, many will say to me,

in that day, it wasn't day the day of judgment?

Lord Lord?

Have we not prophesied in thy name? They asking him

a question? And in thy name have we cast demons out?

They asking him another question? And in thy name have

we had and in thy name done many wonderful works?

That was another question given to him.

And then Jesus says this, I professing to them. He

telling all of them that's talking to him, I never

knew you. Depart from me, you workers of iniquity. Now

these people, he's saying, these are workers of lawlessness. They're

not doing lawful works. They're workers of iniquity, workers of lawlessness. Amen,

you may be seated in the house of the Lord.

Only God's word works for God. Amen.

Let me say that one more time. Once you get

that in your I want you to get that deep

down in your spirit, because because it needs to be,

because we have been venom boozled, hoodwink and out fox

over decades of ministry, especially some of us who have

been in ministry a long long time. Hey man, and

we have been hoodwink and we have been our fox.

We have been tricked because of the teachings that have

been going forth. And I want you to understand today.

Only somebody say only God's word works for God.

Only God's word works for God, nothing else works for God.

I don't care what that man say, that woman may say.

Only God's word works for God.

Didn't you just see that in verses twenty one to

twenty three, only God's word works for God.

That why, Jesus, I don't know, y'all. Whatever y'all was doing,

y'all wasn't doing it in God's way. So I don't know, y'all.

I can only see what you're doing that's related to me.

That's why I said this morning, be careful to call

yourself a Christian because the enemy and take that and

make you believe you something that you're not. And by

doing that, there's danger of you never coming around to

what it really means. Because of the teachings and the

leadership of the enemy, leading you in the past of lawlessness,

and you believing that you are not in lawlessness. These

three here, whoever how many it was, says to Jesus,

didn't I we prophesied in your name, cast out demons

in your name, do many marvelous works in your name.

They believe what they were doing with right, but they

were doing it the wrong way because they weren't doing.

It God's way.

So Jesus said the perfect me, you workers of lawlessness,

but they believe what they were doing with right. You

have to understand, Church. You have to know that. You

know that you know not what somebody said, not what

somebody told you, not what you have believed years ago.

Things are only changing because God, and they're really not changing.

So let me take that out of the equation. They're

coming forth. The truth is coming forth because we're in

the end times, and the truth got to come forth

for him to be a righteous for him to be

a good God, to him to be a gracious and

merciful God.

Because you can't leave here not knowing the truth.

You gotta know it because in the day of judgment,

he's got to judge you righteously, and he can't judge

you righteously if you don't know the truth, and He's

got to give you the opportunity to.

Know the truth. And it's up to you to know

the truth.

That's why the Bible tells you to study, show yourself approved.

He never told you to believe nobody.

The Bible must be, must be our only authority. You remember,

and some of you, all of you remember, y'all wasn't

here when I took over Sunday School. Remember when I

took over Sunday School years ago?

What happened to.

Those respositories in those books?

I got rid of them.

They didn't line up with the word of God, so

I got rid of them. It was some folks that

were upset, But because the only reason they were upset

that I got rid of them, because they was hooked

through the denomination. Denomination has been fooling people for decades.

You don't hear what I'm saying. Denomination is the reason

why there's confusion in God's house.

You don't believe that it is. The Bible even tells you.

So I believe what this Bible say, and I believe

the domination is disorder. I believe the nomination is is

not only disorder. But it's it's confusion which is disorder.

But the Bible must be our only authority in religion.

If we want to please God and go to heaven,

it must be your only authority, not by what some

preacher on TV saying, Not by what some preacher saying.

Behind the poor pier.

The Bible must be your only authority because the Bible

is the only authority that's gonna get you into heaven.

And if you don't believe that, it's your choice to

make people must give up all various false doctrines that

propagate the many different kinds of denomination and go.

Back to only the Bible.

What it propagate mean, it means producing adding to to reproduce.

The Bible said, don't add none to this book, take

nothing away, and see.

The God's way.

It's God's word and that's the only thing that God understands.

Only God word works for God. I don't care how

they try to fix it up. Only it might sound

good that the enemy is deceitfully wicked. It's supposed to

saund good. It's supposed to say ninety nine to one

naisent right, But we're looking for a hundred because ninety

nine and a half.

Just won't do it. Ain't gonna cut it.

Watch this right here, y'all got your bibles. There are

no denominations in the New Testament. You find Baptists in

the New Testament, says John the Baptist. Find Catholic in there.

Find Church of God in Christ, then you can probably

find Church of God in Christ, because that means the

Church of God in Christ ain't nothing but the modern

day Satura, seas and Pharisees. That's all they are. But

they ain't in the Bible. That's not in the Bible.

Church of God, in Church of Christ, and in there.

There is no denominations in the Bible. There are none

in the New Testament times, and there would be none

today if only the Bible was taught in practice. There

are no denominations in the Bible, and there would be

none in this dispensation of time if it was not

being taught.

And it's taught and practiced outside the Bible.

Y'all got understand, y'all do understand, but you ain't really

aware of it. You'd have been to a Baptist church before.

How many y'all been to a Baptist church?

Before.

How many y'all been to church God in Christ church before?

How many y'all been to a church of Christ's curve

seven day a vinage? How many been to Jehovah.

Witness church before? I've been to I've been to Jehovahen's church. Befolk.

Did you see that there's did you see that there's difference?

Understand? And all of them?

And if it's one God, why won't the Jehovah Witnesses

go to nobody's church but your? But there's They invite

everybody in the whole world to come to their temple,

but they won't go into nobody else's.

Church.

God in Christ didn't use the fellowship with other church

now that at this time they fellowshiping with Baptist churches

and stuff like that now, but they ain't used to.

And I believe they're only doing it now.

Hey right here, Uh huh. That whole congreg that whole organization.

God didn't make the organizations. That whole organization ain't about

to number this the whole church. We're taping this, we

take I want to take this. The whole organization ain't

not nothing but money. There comes a time when they

all come together, and the ushers got a fee, and

the and the mothers got a fee, and the pastors

got a fee, and the and the minister boys got

a fee, and the whole church got a fee. That

all of them got to pay a fee. Every church

is over eight million of them now, So that's the

reason why the bishops in them.

Some of them are fat in their pockets.

Where's that in here? Where's that that in here? Because

man made that up. That's denominational stuff. You got some

people run around talking about it. I got somebody else

talking to somebody the other day and they said, well

they I was talking to him about it, and they

was feeling good about him. Then they said this, I

broke them down. The Lord just broke them down. Use

me to break them down. I was talking about the

Catholic and so on. They said, well, that's why I

go to a non denominational church. I said, a non

denominational church is an anomination.

You didn't know that.

You really being tricked by saying I'm non denominated.

Read the Bible.

The Bible said God didn't call you into Baptists and

Catholic or anything like that.

God called everybody.

Into hodness, that's what you believe. That's your faith, not Baptists,

not Catholics.

Holy that's the word of God.

Denomination in the Bible. But because of denomination, God's word

is being twisted. But only God's word works for God.

It's being twisted.

See, if it wasn't for denomination being practiced and taught,

there would be only the Lord's one True Church, which

is called the Church of Christ. But not because there's

so much denomination. The denomination treat teaches all kinds of

different things, but the Bible only teach one thing, holiness.

The confusion, the confusion is because of denomination. So so

you got.

To ask yourself.

But all this denominations, I think it's uh oh gone.

And I knew the number at one time. It's over

a thousand and something different denominations. I bring back the

true number, but it's in the thousands denominations.

Oh yeah, See how.

Confusing they can be talking about one God all them

denominations sound like you're talking about a whole lot of gods.

But how then do we make sure that we amongst

the few who are saved and not amongst the many

who are lost? Because many in the House of God

and many in the house of the devil, because all

the houses that are operating the day on Sunday ain't

God's house. I know one right now, and I know

for sure that ain't God's house, because he's the pastors

are homosexual, and most everybody up in there is the

same way.

And then you got up.

Anything that's outside of God ain't God's.

It's just not God's.

So so we have to ask theselves. We have to

be sure, make sure that we are among the few,

because it's few sad, but it's few who are saved,

and not amongst those who are lost, a lot of

folks still holding on to denominational teaching.

That's why I got rid of them books.

That's why I went.

Straight to the bout.

Now. I had some people applauded, the ones that had

spiritual understanding, the sense. The other ones they just going

along to get along, they hear because of traditional custom

and today's Sunday, there was no Jesus understanding, of Jesus recognition.

I don't care if they're running shouted here, they don't

mean nothing. The devil can touch you and say shout,

you shout, you go, look like you hold it up

in there, and you look like that, and you're a demon.

It was one person that used to shout in here,

and boy, they looked like the depth.

Man.

They eyes were rolling in the back of their head.

I just that can't be.

That can't be God right there. Anyway, Let me move on.

Anybody ask you to do that. Anybody doesn't need no clues.

Doc.

I'm trying not to reveal the individual. Hey, man, I

just said, somebody dick.

See.

Jesus said in the Book of Matthew, chapter seven, verse

twenty one, twenty three. Not everyone who says to me,

Jesus said this, y'all. Are y'all understanding what I'm saying

to you?

Y'all getting me? Look, look look up here at me,

Look up here with me. Are you getting me?

Are you hearing what God is giving me to tell you?

Because I'm getting ready to tell you that. Jesus said it.

Jesus said in Matthew's twenty one and twenty three. Not

everyone who says to me, Lord Lord, shall enter the

kingdom of heaven. Jesus said that. But he who does

the will of my Father in heaven, many will say

to me in that day. Jesus is talking, Lord Lord,

have we not prophesied of your name and cast out

demons in your name? And done many wonder who wonders

and in your name? And then will I say, Jesus said,

I will say, I declare, He said, I declare to them,

I declare, I'm I'm absolutely sure about it. I declare,

He said, I declare to them, I never knew you

depart from me, and you work as you who practice lawlessness.

See this is a plead right here. These folks are

pleading at this time.

They are gonna be folks when in the two dates

come for the time of everybody, which is death and judgment,

they're gonna be people pleading. They're pleading with Jesus. They're

pleading because they know what's at hand. And you know

why they're pleading too, because you know what's a hand

for them.

They're pleading, hey man, and they're they're stating their case.

You can't give before God said, I.

Wasn't that married death, and Jeremal, I wasn't that bad.

I wasn't that bad. You wasn't good here.

So if you believe and call Jesus lord lord, you're

still lost. If you do not what God says, you're

still lost if we are not, If we are not

obeying God, we are practicing lawlessness.

And see, the only way to obey God is back

God's word. This's the only thing God accepts.

Only God works for God. To obey God is to

obey God's word. Hey man, So if we're not obeying God,

we are practicing lawlessness. If we ever hope to go

to heaven, we must do the will of the Father.

This is the only way Church. There is no other way.

Despite what Oprah Winfrey says, in many ways, to the heaven,

she's ignorant. She's ignorant. She's rich and ignorant and hell bound.

And delusion them.

And it's sad because she has an audience.

She has an audience.

Bigger than some past us and set behind him to

stay behind this podium.

She has an audience. She stood in.

She stood before an audience, and then there were other

millions watching, and said, I'm a Christian. If you want

to be a Christian, I can show you how to

be a Christian. But God gonna say to her, I

don't know you, and I ain't never known you. At

one point, she said in an interview that Jesus Christ

was jealous of her. The only way we're gonna make

it to the Father is that we must do the

will of the Father.

This is the only way.

Not the will of men, but God's will, nor our

own will. Amen, because most of us our own will

and our man's will getting.

Us in trouble.

God's will, just because we call Jesus our Lord, this

will not save us. Jesus says in the Aboves Christians

that you heard me read in Matthew seven thirteen to

twenty three that on the day of judgment that many

will be pleading. I told you these guys were pleading

with him. They will be pleading with him, calling him

Lord Lord, and reminding him of many wonderful works that

they had done in his name.

Lord did not feed the hungry.

I had Thanksgiving for him every every Thanksgiving day the

day before Thanksgiving because I had to be at home

with my family on Thanksgiving. I wasn't really sacrificing giving

up nothing. But I did feed him, didn't I get

that helpless at homeless man five dollars so he can

get him something to eat. And I bought him a

beer because he needed a bearer. Lord I helped him,

But Jesus said it gonna be many calls him Lord

Lord and reminding him of many wonderful works that they

had did and that they have done, and they gonna

claim they had done it in his name.

But he was say unto them. See that first part

of that sentence, it's.

A slam dunk. The first part of it is, I

never knew you. And just to put the icing on it,

real thick, depart from me, you workers of letniquity?

Why why? Why? Why? Why? Why?

I never knew you? Why depart from me, you workers

of iniquity?

Why? Lord? Why?

Because they had not done the will of the father.

That's why they had not done the will of the

father in heaven. They did the will of the Father,

but it wasn't no one in heaven.

Mm hmm. See, they thought they had done the will

of the Father, but they hadn't. And you gotta be

sure that you are. Here's the only way to be sure.

It ain't a trick.

It ain't rocket science, this ain't national stuff.

It's right here, the will. All you gotta do is

pick it up and read it and then follow it

and obey it. That's it. It ain't a trick. Is

it hard? Yes, but he'll give you strengths.

Hey, man, that's why he left us a holy ghost,

because he knew it was gonna be hard.

He left us a helper because he knew he was

gonna need.

Help, because if we fell down, the Holy Spirit to

helped pick us up. They thought they had been doing

the will of God, but they hadn't. What they'd done,

what they had been doing was their own will. That's

what they've been doing. They had been doing their own will,

are the will of some man. They either been doing

their own will or the will of some man. My

pastor said, My pastor said, My pastor said, the bishop said.

The bishop said, what God say?

What God say? What did God say?

It's okay to say. My pastor said, if your pastor

said this, but if he said something outside of this,

you shouldn't be saying. My pastor said, what did God say?

These folks hadn't done the will of the Father. They

have done the will of their own and they have

done the will of man. And most folks in these

in these, in these buildings that we call the Temple

of God, or some call the church, they're doing the

will of some man, and they're doing the will of

some woman. But they're not doing the will of God.

They're not doing God's will. And if you don't do God's.

Will, you're gonna hear these words from Jesus.

You gonna think you've been doing the right thing, coming

Lord Love. Yeah, I mean you're gonna be really convinced. Man,

Lord Lord did not keep it one hundred.

No, you was ninety nine and a nine nine.

And you want to know something that's gonna be the

worst thing you've ever heard in your life. I mean,

some people done called you all that your name, cussed

you out, flipped you off and everything, but that ain't

compared to him telling you depart from me. This will

be the worst thing that will ever be said to

any individual. When the Lord on judgment day says to

the majority of people, did I say majority of people?

Yes? I did the part. I never knew you.

There'll be no appeal. You can't appeal it. His decision

is final. His decision ain't like no judge set up

on the bench.

I know jury.

There's no appeal, there's no appellate court because he's all

of that. You can only appeal it to him, and

he's already made a decision.

He is an appellate court. He is the court. He

is the highest court.

There will be no appeal to his decision.

There will be no second chance. We have to get

it right the first time.

And you know what the first time is, then'body know

what the first time is.

The first time is right now.

I don't care how many chances that you get when

you may have fallen short from the grace of God.

It's the first time. This is the first time. As

long as you live, this the first time. Yes, God

will forgive you several times, but it's still the first time.

Once you die, you don't get another chance. There is

no other chance. There's no second time because once you die,

as death and judgment, there is not another time. And

you know, there are many people in ministry that seem

to be honest about what they relieve, but they were

honest mistaken. As a majority, they were honest in what

they believe, but they was honestly mistaken.

Just like Saul. He's believed with everything and when he

was doing was right.

Until the fall, and he came to understand that the

word of God only works for God.

Wasn't working for him until the fall. He honestly believes.

And there are people today in these ministries all over

the world.

That honestly believe. People honestly believe that Bootle is the thing.

Bootle is the man. They believe all Llah, all Lah's

the man.

They believe that Harry Kishner in a man Kennom Copeland

just to do planners, Jeorge Myers, TV James, that's the man.

That's what we believe. We believe what he says. They

believe in. There's idols, because they idols.

They believe, honestly believe, and the majority of them mistaken.

And they and and they're good people. Imagine that they're

good people. This is why my heart bleeds.

This is why my heart bleeds when I see masses.

Listening to a false prophet applauding him. They were applauding

what's that man named Marvin Marvin Wine.

They was applauding him in that foolishness. Because the next

Sunday he came and said after he discredit that woman

and the embarrassed hunt for she ain't even have a

mind to realize she was being disrespected because when they

interviewed her because of the itelness she has towards him.

She couldn't recognize this man just embarrassed you in front

of your grandson who was standing beside you, and the

whole congregation. If you don't think he was embarrassed, you

should have turned around and seen the faces of everybody

that would have told you the story. But the point

that I'm making is the next Sunday they applauded it

all because they raised over five hundred something thousand dollars

in a single Sunday, and they still were short, short

as high waters on a rainy day. They good people

being led astray by a wolf in sheep clothing. I

just read that they come like a They come like sheep,

they wearing sheep clothing.

But the wolves up under there. That's why the word of.

God only works for God. They not gonna tell you

the truth. They're gonna tell you.

What you want to hear.

To appease your emotions and your flesh.

It said, good to your emotions and your flesh. Yes,

if you come up here and praise for you. The

Lord said, man, I see a wife. How you still

a wife? By said a man find with the wife.

He had to see a wife before God tell you

he see that there's a wife. First of all, I

don't seen people pray up peop talking about.

I see aim white. They don't even want to be married.

False prophets. I'm apparently a lot of these people are

good people listening to false prophets. My heart bleeds for him.

But God's not just because of that. God's not gonna

give him a free buy. He's not. That's so that's

what's so sad about it.

He's not gonna give him a free buy because they're

really good people. But they listening to him and they're

not obeying the word of God. They not gonna get

a free by That's the heart wrenching thing about it.

Some of the people I've heard people I've seen the

movie one time, and it's probably gonna be true. It's

probably already been true.

That that that that that that that that.

The girl stood there and said, Lord, the preacher didn't

tell me that God told you to study and show

yourself for proven of God to work, but need not

be ashamed of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. That's what

my Bible says, That's what my Lord told me. They're

good people, but they too lazy to get it for theirself. No,

why they ain't got time. Everybody gonna be looking for

some time when that appointment come. Everybody's gonna be looking

for some time then, but it's gonna be too late.

Time run out. You don't get a do over. You

have to get it right right here, right now. You

don't get a do over.

You see, these people were good people, and they believe

the things that they have done. They have done many

wonderful works for God.

They've been to the elderly homes, and they went to.

Feed the homeless on the sh treets, and they've given

clothes away to those that are in need. And they

told folks about Jesus. But they wasn't doing the will

of God. They were doing their own will.

But they had not done the will of the Father,

which is in heaven. They had not done his will.

They were doing their own will. People think because they

do good things, they gonna a.

Lot of people bleeders. Now y'all know, I know, if you.

Really if you're really into it, you got you spiritually connected.

There are a lot of people out there think because

they're being good, they're gonna make it.

God didn't call you to be good. He didn't called

you to be saved. He called you to be holy.

He didn't call you to be good. And some people

think because they're being good, they're gonna make it in

the kingdom.

That's what these guys were pleading in verses twenty one

to twenty three. And we did wonderful works in your name.

We cast out demon prophesied the folks.

But you didn't do the will of the God. And

you didn't do God's way, hey man, Because there are

many people that just want to do things their own way.

Because it's that seems more right to them. It's right

for me to cuss you out if you cuss me out.

I think that's the right thing to do. You shouldn't

cussed me out. You didn't want to get cussed out. Huh,

you ain't wanna get cussed out. Shouldn't cuss me out?

People say, don't People say that they believe it done

the right thing.

She ain't hit me, I wouldn't hit up.

Many really generally wants to do things their own way.

And don't really care about what God thinks about it.

It's evident in this society that these ministers, in these

poor pits doing things they want to do. They don't

care nothing about what God think about it.

Anytime you drive.

Your cotton picking car up and parking in the in

the poor pit, you doing your own thing? What your

cod doing parked in the poor pit. Anytime you playing

world and music in supposed to be with God's house

and you got the whole congregation in on it.

That ain't God.

That's your way, That ain't God's way. See see see

He's not that kind of God. We think we need

to move over when people commit something evil. Now we

don't see because we all right, they don't need to

moving over with you. In God's wills, you stay right there.

You can be next to them and touching. They show

that God can deal with them and never touch you.

Because it's for them.

They're doing too many things in the house of God

that's not biblical. We used to think, and I thought

back on all of this stuff. How we have men's

day here in this house. The men come through the door,

they all marching, ain't not now one of them got

their mind on Jesus Christ. They're all trying to be singing.

It's all about them because it's men's day and they shocked.

I'm gonna tell you how I know, because every Men's Day,

the person over means day here, which I put in

his mind. Y'all help him out, because he wasn't considering anybody.

None of the men.

We wore blue gray suits or one at one time,

and the next Men's Day, the next year, we need.

To get new suit.

Why can we wear the same suits we had on?

Because they ain't about Jesus. That's why we want to

look some kind of way for the people to see us.

Let me say that again. We want to look some

kind of way so the people can see us. And

while they're seeing us down and see Jesus, that we

have caused folks to lose their focus on even why they're.

In the house of God. Find Men's day in there.

I can find it for you. I can you know

what it is every day. I can find Women's.

Day every day, every day you're supposed to be in

the face of God. But that stuff wasn't for Jesus.

It wasn't for Jesus. I seen women praise dancing and

the stuff they had on. I don't care what that

preacher would have preached after they got through dancing. All

would be left in your mind is a memory of

what you just saw. Because those outfits, breasts looked like

they was coming out of the top. The pasts they

had on were so tight they couldn't breathe. They don't

teach yous infection in these day intwn do.

They must don't.

I mean, I see so many they must ot tea

set in this day in town. It's still real though,

ain't it, Liday? You you working amongst them hospital folks.

I don't. I mean, I don't understand it. I'm just

being honest. All of that.

For the entertainment of the people having to do nothing

with Jesus. We having Marvin Sap coming this Sunday and

only thing on their mind the whole week. They telling

everybody Marvin Sap coming. They ain't gonna tell them Jesus

gonna be there, everybody coming from Marvin South, and Jesus

is gonna do.

Just like this, y'all gonna have it. He gonna be

out of there.

It's entertainment. That's what's going on in these ministries right now.

It's not God's thing, it's man's thing. That's where denominational

comes in, because see in denomination. You can make up

all kind of rules, you can make up all kinds

of things, and it seemed right and it's good. You

understand what I'm saying. It's denominational. And they don't really

care what God thinks about what they do and what

they call God's house. They don't care. We cannot obey

God without doing what God says to do. At just

the bottom line, when God says to do it, how

God says to do it, and for what reason God

says to do? Nothing is more important, nothing, Nothing is

more important than pleasing God.

How do we do that? By doing His will so

that we can go to heaven? You you think God

wants anybody? Are he even joys have any kind.

Of pleasure, even in the wicked of individuals that's walking

around on earth?

Do you think he takes pleasure? Sometimes we take pleasure

and you going to hell and we feel good about that.

But God don't take no pleasure. And even Donald Trump

going to hell. Amen, he takes no pleasure. He didn't

take no pleasure in Lucifer turning and then turning causing

a third of the angels to turn. He didn't take

no pleasure in that. God don't take no pleasure in perishing.

He don't.

It pleases God that we do his will so we

can go to heaven. And all that you're learning today

and all that you're getting, even from these scriptures that

I read to you, that we don't go to heaven

by doing the will of men, are by doing what

we think.

Is right. You don't have to think what's right? Church,

you know why.

All you gotta do is read this and tell you

is right. You ain't gotta bust your head, strain your

brain so you're gonna get some ad vills. I said,

tell her, now, all you gotta do is read this

right here and then tell you what's right.

You ain't got to try to figure it out.

It's right here. You don't got to figure it out.

It's right here. We learn from the scriptures how don't

make it into the Kingdom of God. And the scripture

tells us the only way to make it into heaven

is by doing the will of the Father. And what

will is found right in your Bible. Everybody got a Bible,

don't they. It's in there, so everybody got a Bible.

And since everybody got a Bible, do we really know

what the will of the Father is so that we

can be sure of going to heaven. You got a Bible,

But do you know what the will of God is

in the Bible so that you can be sure?

Not me.

I can't be sure for you. I got only be

sure for me. You gotta be sure. Everybody got a Bible.

That's how you be sure, be sure of going to

heaven by reading the Bible. You see, this is too

important a matter to assume that you do, or take

someone else, or to take someone else's advice. It's too

important to assume this matter or to take somebody else's advice.

Hey man, anybody else's word on this subject? Do we

really know what the Bible says or do we just know?

Do we really know what the Bible is saying or

do we just know what it says? Do we really

know what the Bible is saying? Or do we just

really know what it says?

See?

The heathen knows what the Word of God says, but

they don't.

Know what he's saying.

See, only the people of God know what it's saying.

That that's scripture.

They don't know the things of God that the Word

we know them. Jesus tell the disciples, these parables are

for you to know. Those on our side they won't know.

You should know these parables. Spirit of God teaches you

these parables. Spirit of God teaches you God word, the

Holy gooes helps you to understand God.

So you should know. You should know what it tastes.

Do you really know what the Bible says it's saying

or do you just know what it says? Do you

know what it's saying about you to show you the

road to being saved. In order to be saved, you

have to know what it's saying. You can't run around

talking about where the Bible said.

I can drink. No, it don't.

It says it in a sense, but that ain't what

it's saying.

Well, the Bible said, you.

Ain't supposed to be judging folks. Now I read it,

and that's what it said. It's said jud Not that

what he said. Well, it ain't what the Bible saying.

That's what it said, but I ain't what it's saying.

Everybody got a Bible, it isn't your Bible. There are

many verses in the Bible would have a little asterisk

look like a little snow symbol.

You know what I'm saying.

You know what that little symbol mean. It means spiritually deserned.

It's not cornerly understood, I deserned. It's spiritually deserned. That's

what it means.

And the only spirit that deserns the.

Truth of God is the truth true spirit, the spirit

of Truth, which is a holy ghost. What must I

do to be saved? It's a very important question. Many

people would answer this question in many different ways because

there are many people think there's many different ways to

be saved, and they believe there's many different roads to

the Kingdom of God.

But I just showed you and read to you in

the Word of God when you were looking at yourself.

I believe you were looking at it that narrow is

the way. I was saying, sound like one way to me,

narrow is the way, And then say.

Narrow are those ways?

See, many different denominations give you many different and conflicting

answers to that question.

They ain't the one answer.

How they give you so many because it's denominational. Denomination

is man's doctrine.

And you really want somebody to talk to.

That's confusing A person that's been in the theological school.

They jacked up. They really think they on top of

the game.

I got a doctrine, Yeah, and foolishness.

Got a PhD. Yeah, you got a PhD. And dumber

and dumb.

Because I ain't see no disciples go to school.

For this word.

He said, many are calling, many are chosen. That's what

the word says. And he said that the Holy Spirit,

not a not a whatism professor, He said, the Holy

Spirit will teach you all things. The professor can't teach

you all things. I don't care what theological school is like.

That professor can't teach you all things. He can't. He

can teach you man's way and man's doctrine, and man's

wisdom and what man believe is right about the Bible.

But he ain't talking to you about the Word of

God and where God see it. He's not talking to

you about that. Only God's way is correct. The Bible

is the only reliable source we can go to for

our answers. Every answer is in the book. You're an alcoholic,

the answer is in the book for you. You're a

drug addict is in the book. Your hole monger is

in the book. You're a liar is in the book.

The answers in the book that help you. Hey, man,

you're lusting demon. Send the book God can help you.

It's the only reliable source that you can go to

for your answers.

And since it is your.

Own soul that would be lost if you follow Man's advice,

not mine yours. Our beatence to Christ is a very

serious decision and it must not be taken lightly. See,

too many people come into the House of God, folks

get saved, I guess, and then they take salvation too lightly.

Salvation is not to be taken lightly. It's a serious

life of death situation. Do you think life and death

should be taken lightly?

Duh? It's serious.

You u should be taken seriously.

You talking about your soul where you're.

Going to exist when you cease to exist on this side.

And if that's not important to people, then they should

go on and live any kind of way, because the

life that you live here must be on the lowest

terms as laid out in the scriptures, and not on

our own terms. You were living on your own terms

and you found out it wasn't working, So what did

you do?

You came to Christ.

So if you're gonna come to Christ, then live by

his terms. Don't come to Christ and live by some

of his terms and live by some of yours, because

in essence you really only.

Living by yours. See, some people could think that they

doing two sides. They think they.

Living according to God in some situation, but in other

situations they living on their own. No, you're only living

on your own because if you ain't doing if God

ain't got you all, he don't want none of you.

That's only in your mind. That's a trick of the enemy,

a trick of the flesh got you vamboozed and tricked.

Either you giving it all to God or you giving

it to your own self or your flesh or the

demon eble too to serve you to serve God or

the devil.

There's no in between.

There's only two to serve. I don't know why people

think it's more than that. It's only two. It's only

two spirits, a righteous spirit and an unrighteous spirit.

Either you're serving the righteous.

Spirit or the unrighteous spirit. And sometimes you're serving the

unrighteous spirit. As I've indicated in the Bible, has showed

you and you don't even know it. Why because you're

not doing it. According to the word of God. And

the only way you can't guess on this thing.

You can't guess. I guess this is right. I guess

God would approved this. You don't have to guess. Get

in the Bible. The answer is in now.

You don't have to guess. We seen in the Bible.

I'm about to y'all.

Just hold on.

You ain't been here till Sunday. Hold on, Oh, I

ain't going nowhere. I'm gonna get all this out.

I know some preacer.

I'm gonna get something to you next thing.

No, I ain't.

The Bible says this day is the day of the Lord.

While you here, whatever you got to do, it should

be set aside for whatever you can get there. People

shouldn't even come to church.

They gotta go to work.

They shouldn't if they got if the church starts at

one o'clock and they gotta be a church at work

at two o'clock. They shouldn't come up in here because

you know why, they're not focused. They ain't focused because

they thinking about.

Amen. Amen, they ain't focused. You come up in here,

you gotta be focused.

You come up here in your mind should be should

be focused. Your mind should be stabbed fast on what

God it has for you, and you should never leave

before the benediction. And they leave before the benediction. Anyway,

I threw that out there for free.

It's all free.

H We read in Matthew seven thirteen through twenty three

that only a few will be saved and many will

be lost, and only those who do the will of

the Father can go to heaven. We read in First John,

chapter two and verse four, and he says who He says,

he who says I know him and does not keep

his commandments. He who says I know him, I know him.

But you ain't keeping the commandments. The Bible says you're

a liar. I said, I just repeated the Bible says

you a liar, and the truth and it'll just say

you're a liar. He said, you're a liar.

The truth they did to a liar.

THO, that's that's you don't like to be called a liar.

That that's a strong thing.

I really say, Man, you ain't telling the truth. See that,

don't That don't sting good?

But to say you're a liar, that's things, that's that's things.

Just a flat out liar, A person is lying to himself.

They didn't say he was lying to I didn't say

he was lying to God. I said, you lying to

yourself and everyone else who says he knows and loves God.

You lying to yourself if you say you know and

love God, and you tell other people I know and

I love the Lord.

But does not keep the commandments of God. He's a liar.

And we know what about a life. He ain't going

to heaven. Life, he ain't going to heaven. If you

say that you know God. Y'all better hear what I'm saying.

And it's not much for anybody in this room.

It's not much for anybody in this room to tell

somebody I love Jesus.

You ain't got to be prompted to say that. You

just I love Jesus. Do you know the Lord? I

love the Lord?

Y'all, we even sing it.

I love the Lord and I won't take it back.

I love the Lord and I won't take it back.

Well take it back if you ain't keeping this commandments,

because you are alive, y'a.

See, these are God's words. These are not my words.

God said it.

God said it. You say you love me, and you

don't keep my commandments. I know I might not know

you a liar unless I've seen your fruit, but God

knows you're a liar. You ain't gonna make it into heaven.

Hey man. You can't tell God you love him and

you don't keep his commandments.

I mean all of them. Don't y'all keep some of them?

All his commandments. I don't even know what all of

them are. Well, you better get the reading. Better get

the reading. That's all I can do if you want

to go to heaven.

Is that serious to you?

Better get the reading and you better get to understanding

what you're reading. Just don't know what it's said, know

what it's saying.

So I would.

Conclude with this, I let y'all release shall.

We must do all God's will?

Hey man, I'm gonna conclude with the fact that we

must do all God's will so that we can go

to heaven.

There is no other way.

I want you to hear this conclusion.

Let me say it one more time. In my conclusion

of this sermon, I want you to understand that we

must do all of God's will so that we we

can go to heaven.

There is no other way, no single condition that God

imposes can be ignored, not one. God has no non

essential commandments. When we don't obey a commandment, when we

don't obey a commandment, when we don't obey a commandment

of God, we have just broken it.

Many people think that.

God will save them no matter what, no matter if

they follow God's specific instructions on what they must do

to be saved or not.

And there are those that believe that.

And there's a church right here in Memphis that teach that. See,

I've been exposed to a lot of stuff. There's a

church here to teach the people God loves homosexuals. It

don't matter if you're homosexual, You're gonna make it into

the Kingdom of God. It don't matter if you're a liar,

It don't matter. If you're a hormonger, it don't matter,

if you're an adulter. You gonna make it into the

Kingdom of Heaven because God loves you. They teach that

in this church it's out east, because it don't matter.

They teach that, do you hear me? They teach stuff

like that.

Many people think that God will save them no matter

if they follow God's specific instructions.

On what they must do to be saved or not.

They believe it because why God won't send me to hell.

And that's true.

But there's a trick with it when they tell you that,

there's a trick with.

It, because there's deceit with that. Because God won't send

you to heaven. That's true.

You send yourself to hell when you go to hell.

You send yourself to heaven when you go to heaven

by the way you live. Because on the day of judgment,

if you have lived right, God gonna say welcome. If

you haven't depart from me. Some will say that's God

doing that. No, that's you who have done that. Don't

you ever believe that God will allow you in the

Kingdom of Heaven no matter how you live.

What then is God's will? What is his will?

So that we can go to heaven and not have

to endure eternal punishment.

Forever and ever?

Because you know people talking about I'm going to I'm

going to eternity with God. There's two eternities. There was

only one in the beginning, but there's two eternities.

One is eternal.

Life, what our Lord is save Jesus Christ. Two is

eternal punishment.

So what must we do.

To be saved so that we can go to heaven

and not have eternal endure?

And do it? So?

The word and do it means this is gonna keep

happening to you. You're gonna keep this. Man is never

going to stop in hell because it's eternal. You in eternity,

You're gonna be forever being punished and in term torment.

What must you do? I tell you we will. I'll

tell you where you found the answer. You will find

the answer in the Bible. What must you do? You

want to go to heaven, then you must do God's will.

You want to go to heaven, and you sure of it,

then the only way to make it and understand it

is the only.

Thing that works for God is God's word, not man's.

Word, not your word, but the only God's word works

for God.

Amen, Amen, wake up, give God a hand clap before

y'all with me. Take it with you. Only God's word

works for God.

I don't care what you listen to on the radio,

watch on TV. Only God's word works for God. Only

God's word works for God because He gave you.

This word so it would work for you. Amen.

We're standing at this time. Amen, I'm so I'm so grateful.

Did God care so much about us that God would

take the time too minister to us his words, to

reveal to us his hidden thoughts, to even help us. See,

God don't just tell.

Us how to live. He show us how to live.

And He don't just tell us how to live and

show us how to live, He helps us to live

that way.

We got it. He got it all covered for us.

All we gotta do is follow. It's i covered. There's

no strain in our brain. He tell us what it is.

He show us what it is, and he help us

to do what he tell us and show us. That's

what the Holy Goos is.

A help us, He helps us.

You can refuse his help or you can accept his help.

But that's your choice. That's your choice, God said, you choose.

It's all up to you. There is no blame game

for God, God, because God lays it out plainly and

it's up to us to obey it.

Amen.

Amen, let us pray, Father, we come again to you

in prayer, bow down heads and humble hearts. We want

to come to thank you for your word again, Lord,

for your encouragement, even for your rebuke in the name

of Jesus. Thank you, Lord, just showing us the straight way.

We already knew about the other way. But thank you

for the straight way.

God.

Thank you for the relief. Thank you for something that

will save us. God, thank you that we're not damn

to hell. Lord, but we have hope in our Lord

and Savior, Jesus Christ. Thank you for the hope God

and the faith in him. God in the name of Jesus.

Thank your God for your holy Spirit that leads us

and guides us in the ways of righteousness and justness. God,

in the name of Jesus Christ. Thank you God, truly.

God.

You could have just let us die and go to hell.

But because you love us so much God, and because

God you showed us how to love you, we just

want to say thank you Father today in the name

of Jesus.

Now, Lord, if there's anyone among us right now, God.

That needs healing in their body, in their minds and

their finances. God, I'm asking you, God, is your servant,

hear me, now, Lord, in the name of Jesus, touch

and deliver supply the need. God, as you as promised

in your word. You said in your word, God, that

you shall supply all of our need according to your

riches and glory God Christ.

Jesus, you said you are our healer, God, You the

doctor of all doctors. God. Touch God right now.

If we have any infirmities in our bodies and here,

touch right now in the name of Jesus Christ. If

you're rastling in their minds, God, worrying God, back and forth,

back and forth, God, deliver them from the confusion in

the mind's Father, in the name of Jesus, Touch the minds. God,

clear their minds. Give them peace in their mind today, Father, God,

in the name of Jesus, Help today.

Lord.

In the name of those that are facing things that

they're somewhat fearful of, God, give them peace today because

you didn't give us the spirit of fear of God.

In the name of Jesus, give them peace, God, in

the name of Jesus. God.
