  1. Well, alright in there. You don't have to hear from

  2. me to give God praise and give him the glory.

  3. You worthy of the praise and the glory. It looks

  4. like one of those rainy day Sundays, heymen, where folks

  5. are r too relaxed. A man, somebody, I know that

  6. he who Okay, we are to be excited to be here,

  7. but I always say that the excitement of what we

  8. do outside of here seems to supersede the house of God.

  9. I don't understand it, but it is what it is

  10. for some of us. Ay Man, I guess when we

  11. get in that real truth, we'll get that real, that

  12. real praise for God. You know they're in worship. Most

  13. folks know how long worship service takes, how long worship

  14. service was, but do they know during that time how

  15. much time they actually took to worship. They may know

  16. how long it was, but how much worship did you

  17. do in that time. It's just like we forget to

  18. give him praise and glory when the Bible tells us

  19. when we come into his house to enter in his gate.

  20. Antybody gonna finish it for me? One of those rainy

  21. day Sundays. Amen, where folks are so relaxed, they so

  22. comfortable a man, but I want you to wake up

  23. in here. I come to enlighten you on some things

  24. that God has enlightened me on. Amen. So let us

  25. go to the Book of Saint John h. Chapter fifteen.

  26. And while you're getting that, we'll go to the Throne

  27. of Grace with me. This morning, I left my glasses

  28. at home, so if I mispronounce, I skip over word,

  29. I'm sure Sister Lisa gonna help me out. Amen. Amen.

  30. I'm not in this on my own, am I? All right? Then?

  33. somebody amen. So let us go to the Throne of Grace.

  34. Father God. We come right now in the name of Jesus, Lord.

  35. We want to thank you for yet another day. God.

  36. We're so glad to be here God that we're just

  37. bubbling over. Not only did you wake us up, God,

  38. but you got us up, and you got us up

  39. in all right mind, God, a mind to come this

  40. day to give you the service, give you the glory

  41. and the praise. In the name of Jesus Christ, our

  42. Lord and Savior. Thank you for salvation. God, thank you

  43. so much for life. In the name of Jesus Christ,

  44. by the blood of the Lamb. We thank you. We

  46. you kept the faith and the commandments of the Father

  47. for our sake. We want to say thank you, Thank

  48. you for blessing our trip here this morning. Thank you God.

  49. In the name of Jesus I've asked that you look

  50. over those who are out of town and keep them safe.

  51. Keep him under your covering God a protection. And look

  52. upon brother James's family who has lost his brother, and

  53. give comfort to the family. Lord, give comfort and lessen

  54. Lord to know that we're not going to always be here,

  55. so we need to cleave to you. Lord, learn of you,

  56. get into you as you get into us, because we too,

  57. one day will leave this place and enter end to

  58. another place. And I pray God, it's your house. In

  59. the name of Jesus, save and deliver God. Today in

  60. the name of Jesus Christ, look up over the people

  61. that are listening on the airways. Those in this house today,

  62. keep them stadfast in you Father, in the name of Jesus,

  63. help them Holy Spirit to be aware and conscience and

  64. mindful always of the Father and the way that He

  65. would have us to walk in the wisdom and understanding

  66. and knowledge of Him. In the name of Jesus Christ,

  67. our Lord and Savior. Now, Lord, as this word goes forth,

  68. use me like never before, always, like never before, a

  69. new experience, a new day with new grace and new mercy.

  70. Use me, Lord, that the people may hear a word

  71. from you, not of myself, but of you God. Because

  72. our decreases, you increase. And let your word go forth

  73. and those that are listening, that you may save the

  74. sinner and bring back the backslider, and continue the strength

  75. and those that are holding on in this last and

  76. dispensation of this evil time, that we in look over

  77. this government God that has gone totally wicked. Turn the

  78. heads of those that are leading God in the ways

  79. of righteousness. But God, my prayer is always have your way,

  80. and let your will be done. In the name of Jesus,

  81. rebuke the devil and filled this house and these temples

  82. in this house with your holy Spirit, that we understand

  83. and get knowledge and wisdom of your words. And Jesus name,

  84. I pray, thank God, Amen and Amen. In the Book

  85. of Saint John, chapter fifteen and verse twenty six, the

  86. Bible says, this is the key verse of this chapter.

  87. But when the comfort, n the helper, the protector, the

  88. leader is come, whom I will send unto you from

  89. the Father, even the spirit of truth. Somebody say, truth

  90. which proceeded from the Father. The spirit of truth comes

  91. from the Father. The spirit of a lie. I need

  92. not go no further, which proceeded from the Father. He

  93. shall testify of me, who the spirit of truth shall

  94. testify of the Father. Now let us jump down and

  95. jump over to chapter sixteen and verse eight, and it

  96. says at the end of twenty six or fifteen he

  97. shall testify of me. And then eight says in sixteen

  98. and when he is come, he will reprove convict the

  99. world of sin and of righteousness and of judgment of sin.

  100. There's three things here. He's getting ready to tell you

  101. what of sin because they believe not on me, of

  102. a righteousness, because I go to my Father, and ye

  103. see me no more. Of judgment, because the prince of

  104. this world is judged. Are the ruler of this world? Amen?

  105. You may be seated in the House of the Lord,

  106. We're gonna get a little bit deeper into this truth. Amen.

  107. Today we're gonna talk about conformity, or rather, truth requires conformity.

  108. Truth requires conformity. What is conformity? Conformity is the condition

  109. our fact of being being in harmony, our agreement. Amen.

  110. Conformity is the conditioner our fact of being in harmony,

  111. our agreement. Amen. And in John sixteen and eight through eleven,

  112. which I just read to you, the work of the

  113. Holy Spirit is to reprove, to point out a fault

  114. or an error. Are to a expose something as it

  115. is or as it really is. Amen. Why because the

  116. Holy Spirit is the spirit of truth. So it's gonna

  117. expose everything as it really is. Amen. Somebody, but in

  118. church she's shouting and dancing and praising. But at home,

  119. or in the mall or in the store she acts

  120. like a heathen. Why because truth is she's a heathing.

  121. It exposes Amen. I don't care how you act up

  122. in here. The Holy Goal is gonna expose it because

  123. it's the spirit of truth. Keep that in mind. Is

  124. the spirit of truth. The Holy Spirit reproves in three ways, sin, righteousness,

  125. and judgment, which is justice. Amen. Sin it talks about

  126. in verse nine, the Holy Spirit reveals the need of redemption.

  127. The greatest sin is unbelief, Amen, And the greatest work

  128. is belief. And then righteousness the second thing verse ten.

  129. Christ goes to the Father after a righteous life and

  130. death that will impute this righteousness to others. It is

  131. because of the righteousness of Jesus Christ. He goes to

  132. the Father and announces, because you'll cover it under the

  133. blood and the blood, and you have the blood stained

  134. that you are righteous in the sight of God. Because

  135. of the righteousness of Jesus Christ. Judgment is justice speaks

  136. bad self. Hey, man, That means that with this Holy Spirit,

  137. all things that you will do in this life, when

  138. you have this Holy Spirit, you would do it justly.

  139. You will not because the Holy Spirit is not an

  140. unjust spirit. So in understanding these things, then we must

  141. understand what the will of God is. When we understand

  142. these things, Amen, I'm teaching today, Thank your Holy Ghost.

  143. The will of the Living God is that man walk upright.

  144. That's God's will for mankind. And you can't walk up

  145. the right unless you're walking in truth. And what is truth?

  146. The spirit of God, which is the Holy Ghost. So

  147. you must walk up right in truth and obedience. But

  148. somebody say, but however, through conditions of deficiency, Man has

  149. come to make us for of doing wickedness in the

  150. sight of God is made of a sport. And this

  151. is what was going on. Also in the days of Noah,

  152. they had made a sport of committing sin and unrighteousness

  153. and ungodliness. But what does the Bible tell us that

  154. these days would be as the days of Noah? And

  155. we're living in the prophecy of what Jesus Christ said

  156. about these days Because these days are very sinful. Man

  157. is practicing every sport of wickedness that he can come

  158. up with in his mind. And that what got the

  159. first world destroyed, and that is what is going to

  160. get this world destroyed. It's repetitious. Man is still doing

  161. what he was doing, hey man, because of the spirit.

  162. You can't kill a spirit. The Spirit of Babylon is

  163. running through and through this earth. I didn't say America,

  164. I said the earth. In Revelation is eighteen. It tells

  165. us that God is going to destroy the Spirit of Babylon.

  166. But as long as it's running, it's wickedness is going

  167. to climb. But is that our concern? Yes, it is

  168. because we are called to witness, as I spoke this

  169. morning in Sunday School, that we're not We are the

  170. hope of the dying world, and the hope that's in

  171. us is what we're supposed to be given to a

  172. die world. But the church has allowed the dying world

  173. to kill it and has infiltrated the House of God. See,

  174. this kind of preaching is not going far in the

  175. churches today. You know, I always go back to that

  176. scene and other scenes that I've seen where these guys

  177. are doing everything but what God called them to do,

  178. and that's what's causing the church to diminish. But the

  179. real thing is what we talked about this morning. Wisdom

  180. is giving an invitation to God's people to come in,

  181. and they're not using that wisdom, and that's why that

  182. truth is not being foremented in the people of God.

  183. You got folks in the pulpit, grown males walking around

  184. with women heals on preaching the gospel to people. Have

  185. seen two preachers like that. Now it's two of them

  186. that wear heels women heels in the poor pit and

  187. preach to the people. So where is the wisdom of

  188. the people gone. No truth. You think I'm gonna sit

  189. out there while man is ministering the word of God

  190. to me wearing high heeled shoes, got on stilettos. Something

  191. wrong with that picture. But the bigger picture is something

  192. wrong with them people. So we are living in the

  193. days as the days were, as no asdays. And when

  194. we understand that man, in this dispensation of time has

  195. made a great sport of wickedness, and it doesn't even

  196. move them. It don't even move those in the church

  197. because they are committing the same wickedness, because they have

  198. allowed the church. The Church has allowed the world to

  199. infiltrate it, and now they want to It looks so

  200. glamorous to be more like them than them, to be

  201. like us. But Ecclesiasts tells us Lord this, only have

  202. I found that God had made man upright? The only

  203. thing we found about God, He made man upright. But

  204. they have sought out many inventions that means schemes and

  205. evil things to do. These inventions, in their least destructive capacity,

  206. leads those of whom are exposed to them, wounded, shattered,

  207. and captive to the powers of darkness. It does those

  208. folks up here that's leading the church are leading them

  209. into darkness and even darker days because why they are

  210. not filled with the spirit of truth, so they ain't

  211. telling the truth. Somebody was talking to me about the

  212. preacher the other day and I said, yeah, he's an

  213. anointed back God said all other things he do. I said, yeah,

  214. he's annointed back God. Yeah he is. I said, you

  215. don't never hear him preach on a daughtry because he

  216. got hundred women in the church is up under him,

  217. so he's gonna preach about dultch and he got a wife,

  218. he got a third wife or a second wife, matter

  219. of fact, and babies by those sitting on the front row,

  220. so he ain't gonna preach about adults. I ain't gonna

  221. mention his name. I would tell he's in Memphis, though,

  222. So he's preaching the gospel with an anointing, but darkness,

  223. because you know, the devil's annointed to do his evil.

  224. But because of the many schemes that the people of

  225. God are caught up in by the so caught man

  226. of God, they're wounded, shattered, and captives to the powers

  227. of darkness, some to the physical powers of darkness, giving

  228. all their money on past anniversary, and it can't pay

  229. the light bill. So they in the physical doctness and

  230. the spiritual doctors. I've seen that man is taken captive

  231. by his own desires, his own lust. Nobody put you

  232. in captivity but you that they have probably compelled you

  233. and cohersed you and caused you. But you put your

  234. own self in this captivity. And then when they are

  235. in captivity, these men of God, so called ministering the

  236. words to the people, they lead others into the like bondage.

  237. When they remain in darkness too, they lead others. You

  238. ever heard the I Am leading the blind fall in

  239. the ditch. That's what they're doing. They in darkness. They're

  240. leading the people of God into a deep of darkness

  241. because the spirit of truth is not in them. Jeremi

  242. four and two says, it informs us that the Lord

  243. liveth in truth, in judgment and in righteousness, and the

  244. nations shall bless themselves. Are you hearing what I'm saying?

  245. Be blessed in Him and in Him shall their glory.

  246. Truth as is manifested in God are back. God has

  247. the transforming power to deliver truth, has the transforming power

  248. to deliver us. Have you ever heard of the truth

  249. will make you free? That's delivering. The transforming power of

  250. deliverance is what the truth has when we receive it

  251. and accept it. Amen, as we know, Amen as we know.

  252. As in saying that you know, there's not a person

  253. in here that don't know that the truth will make

  254. you free. What is the truth? The spirit of God?

  255. Hey man? What is the truth? Jesus Christ will make

  256. you free? As we know. But I'm here to tell

  257. you for those that's jumping back and forth, there is

  258. no such thing as partial liberty nor a partial bondage.

  259. I'm just in the little bondage. I ain't in all

  260. that kind of bondy. It'll sustain. It is imperative. Therefore,

  261. that those who believe in God through faith in the

  262. Lord Jesus Rice, examining truth is imperative. It's like breathing air.

  263. You must examine the truth. And they're not examining the truth.

  264. That's why they are all being led in the darkness.

  265. You see, truth has a transferring power. And when you

  266. examine the truth, what transferring power it has and the

  267. life that is in truth. Of course, we understand that

  268. the evidence of truth will always prove itself. The evidence

  269. of truth will always prove itself. I was watching the

  270. should the other day where these women lied on these men,

  271. but the truth came forth and it delivered them. If

  272. the truth had not come forth, they would have been

  273. in a lie and they would have been condemned by

  274. the life, hey man. But the truth will have come

  275. forth at some time, just like I understand the woman

  276. who lied on Tillman, the young boy, and said he

  277. whistled at us on a dying bed. She told the truth.

  278. The truth gonna come out. I know sometime we believe

  279. this takes too long, but it gonna come out, ay man.

  280. And that's an enlightening point. That's a very enlightening point.

  281. That's a hope to hold on to, to know that

  282. the truth will come out. Now, it's only an enlightening

  283. point for the righteousness of God. But a liar is

  284. dangerous for them. They don't want the truth to come out.

  285. See the lie, A lie and truth both have power,

  286. hey man. But the truth is more powerful than a lie.

  287. Are you with me? So here we see that life

  288. is in those who walk in truth. I letna say

  289. that again. Life is in those that walk in truth. Why.

  290. I'm gonna be a minute, so y'all stay awake because

  291. we need to know this, I said. We need to

  292. know this. Life is in those who walk in truth.

  293. Why because Jesus Christ is truth and Jesus Christ is life.

  294. He said, So I'm the Truth, i am the Life,

  295. and I am the way. So if you are in him,

  296. and if he's in you, then you are walking in

  297. the truth. Amen. But if he ain't in you, you're

  298. walking in a lie. And you're a dead man too,

  299. our woman. So life is in those who walk in truth, judgment,

  300. and righteousness. Why because the Lord lives in the that's why.

  301. And he lives only in these things. He don't live

  302. in a life and unrighteousness and ungodliness. He only lives

  303. in the truth. That's the only place he lives is

  304. in the truth. And nowhere else. Whoa This is a

  305. hard one. When Jesus Christ comes alive in us, as

  306. we keep ourselves in these, and as we keep ourselves

  307. in these, he comes alive in us. And what do

  308. people see. They see Jesus, They see a shining star.

  309. They see the light, and the light is him. That's

  310. why when people look at you, they say something different

  311. about you than that other person. Is something different about you. See,

  312. they don't understand what the difference is, but they do

  313. see there is a difference. And they should see difference

  314. in you than they see in the world. Because you're

  315. supposed to be the light of the world, the illumination, Amen,

  316. because of Jesus in you, because the truth lives in you. Amen. So,

  317. knowing the truth, are you listening? Knowing the truth but

  318. not walking in the truth, will most or surely bring

  319. you face to face with the terrible wraft of God.

  320. It brings you in face face with him if you

  321. don't know the truth and don't walk in it. But

  322. the fact that you know the truth and won't walk

  323. in it, oh yeah, it's gonna bring you in the terrible,

  324. terrible presence of the wrath of God. In Romans one

  325. in eighteen, the Scripture speaks to us on this wise,

  326. and it says to us, for the wrath of God

  327. is revealed from heaven against all somebody say, all, I'm

  328. gonna help you. They y'all help me this morning, because

  329. they might help me stay awake from all ungodlesness and

  330. unrighteousness of men who hold the truth in unrighteousness. And

  331. that's what you got in the poor piss today, the

  332. men holding the truth in unrighteousness. Amen, Saints of God,

  333. holding the truth in unrighteousness. You ever see people try

  334. to use the Bible to help them out, they're using

  335. it in an unrighteous way. That ain't what it means truth.

  336. Somebody say truth as manifested by God is a standard. It,

  337. in fact, is the only access we have into the

  338. presence of God. Truth, God is revealed from Heaven against

  339. all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men who hold the truth

  340. and unrighteousness. In fact, is the only access we have

  341. is the truth. As John fourteen and six says, Jesus says,

  342. I am the Way, the Truth and the life. No man.

  343. Somebody say, no, no man coming to the Father. But

  344. by me, ain't no other way. I don't care what

  345. open w'free seeing as many ways to the fire. No

  346. it ain't. It ain't. Just the scripture just said what

  347. it is. See when folks quote stuff out of their

  348. own mind, thinking that they write about it because of

  349. common sense and not wisdom of God. No it ain't.

  350. But one way to the Father, and that's by Jesus Christ. Jesus,

  351. he is the standard. He is the transforming power of

  352. God in man. He's the transforming power of God in man.

  353. Because he was the transforming power in Jesus. Jesus fed

  354. the five thousand because of the transferring power of God

  355. in his hands. That caused him every time he brought

  356. the bread. He had transforming power. It was creating power.

  357. But first he said Father, before he fed him. He

  358. prayed Father, and God already knew what he wanted. It's

  359. in your hand, son, All past five thousand Bible, just

  360. say five thousand men, but there were women and children,

  361. and women and children mostly outrank men. Children definitely outrank

  362. with men and women for the most part. You may

  363. have a father and a mother and they may have

  364. three kids, or they may have six kids. A seven

  365. kids are twelve kids, so the kids outnumber the mother

  366. and father. So it was more than five thousand. So

  367. it was a miracle. Amen. Truth has deliverance power, and

  368. the delivering the delivering power of the truth becomes manifested

  369. in man. When man humbles himself before the Lord. What

  370. does that mean? It means repent and turn away from

  371. your ways to His ways, which means you turning away

  372. from your sins to His righteousness a man somebody, and

  373. it's an act of surrendering, and that surrendering has to

  374. be completely. I'm gonna surrender, but I'm just gonna hold

  375. onto this right here. I'm gonna hold onto this in

  376. this too, but I'm gonna surrender all the rest of this.

  377. You ain't surrendered. You ain't surrendered, You can't keep nothing.

  378. It's complete surrenders to the Lord. The Lord, Jesus Christ says,

  379. if ye continue in my word, then you are my disciples.

  380. There's a flip side. Disciples is a follow of Jesus Christ.

  381. If you're not continuing in his word, then you're not

  382. following him. Indeed, Amen, and you shall know the truth,

  383. he says, if you continue to follow me, you will

  384. know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.

  385. John eighteen thirty one and thirty two. So then we

  386. say we see here the truth is the power of

  387. deliverance in man. The truth will deliver you. The Bible

  388. clearly says the truth will make you free. It'll give

  389. you liberty. Does the truth hurt, Yeah, but it will

  390. still make you free. The truth will hurt and help

  391. you to live. A lie will hurt and kill you.

  392. Are y'all with me? And by the way, there is

  393. no such thing as a black a little white lie.

  394. It's all a lie. And they got it's multiple colors

  395. on a lie. It ain't just black and white. So

  396. we see here in this lesson that truth delivers. Hey man,

  397. why does truth deliver? See, y'all ain't paying attention. Truth

  398. delivers because truth is Jesus. Y'all got me. Y'all with me.

  399. It delivers because it's Jesus. It makes us free, because

  400. he went on the cross and made us free. He's

  401. the truth, the only truth.

  402. Everything else is a lie. Everything else is a lie.

  403. The Bible said so that God be the truth and

  404. every man be a lie as scripture. I didn't make

  405. that up. I'm trying to help y'all this morning. Why

  406. I believe Brother Joe. I don't my desermer say brother

  407. Joe's speaking, But if Jesus is speaking through Brother Joe,

  408. I believe what he's saying. How y'all with me. I'm

  409. taking this slow. Stay awake, don't make me call your name.

  410. Stay awake. I want you to stay awake. I'm serious

  411. about this. I'm upset about it in a good way,

  412. y'all must y'all don't understand the endurance that I have

  413. to have and go through through the week of watching

  414. all kinds of damnation things going on, and people claiming

  415. to be saved, but living in like a heathen. People

  416. claim in this gospel, but a liars. But this house,

  417. this house, It's gonna know the truth. And I'm not

  418. gonna sugarcoat it, and i ain't gonna perform for you.

  419. I'm gonna teach you this. I'm here to teach the word,

  420. preach the word. It's up to you to live it.

  421. And the word that come forth don't come from me.

  422. It comes through me. So it's up to me to

  423. live it. Hey man, he says, then you shall know

  424. the truth, and you shall know the truth, And ye

  425. shall know the truth. You shall know it, and the truth,

  426. once you know it shall make you free. So then

  427. you must see today that truth is the power of deliverance.

  428. In man, it will deliver you. It's better to tell

  429. the truth than tell a lie. It ain't never better

  430. to tell a lie. So ain't such thing better than

  431. it's always as a child of God. If the devil's child.

  432. Always better to tell a lie because that's what glorifies him,

  433. that's what gives him praise. Aymen. Oh yeah, the devil

  434. won't glory and praise too. We all know that's what

  435. got him in the position that he's in. Now he

  436. wants it too. He got his own, folks, And we

  437. must understand man's bondage. It's spiritual, and it's not only

  438. spirit but it's internal. Amen. So the deliverance must be

  439. spiritual and internal. So how blessed are we, Amen, How

  440. blessed are we to have the promise of the indwelling

  441. Spirit of God in us. That's a blessing. It's a privilege,

  442. and it's a blessing. And it's an honor to have

  443. the dwelling Spirit of Truth dwell in us. It's an

  444. honor for the Spirit of Truth to wanna dwell in us. HM.

  445. Who is the Holy Ghost, who is the Spirit of Truth?

  446. Glory to God, Glory to the Most High God. For

  447. true deliverance. I ain't say nothing but no partial deliverance,

  448. because ain't no such thing. But for true deliverance. I

  449. give God the glory and the praise, because it all

  450. comes from up high. Amen. The dwelling spirit of Truth

  451. is also a promise to us, So it ain't like

  452. you can't have it. We all know that God. All

  453. of God's promises are yes and amen in Jesus Christ

  454. as scripture. I didn't make that up. It's in the book.

  455. All of the promises of God are yes and a man,

  456. which means yes, I agree that promise is mine. That's

  457. why I say, is that, amen, I agree that all

  458. of your promises are yet yes. Whenever I promised you,

  459. don't worry about the answer. It's yes. It's already yes.

  460. It belongs to you, every one of them. And it

  461. is an honor and a privilege to have the Spirit

  462. of God that will even want to end dwell in us. Amen.

  463. It is a promise from God which has already been

  464. fulfilled by Jesus Christ. Hey, man, it's already been fulfilled

  465. in the Book of John fourteen in sixteen where he says,

  466. and I will pray the Father this Jesus, and he

  467. shall give you another comfort us. It's already been given

  468. that he may abide with you forever. He ain't going nowhere.

  469. Even the spirit of Truth, whom the world cannot receive

  470. who even the Spirit. Y'all, hear what I'm saying, what

  471. Jesus has you hear what I'm repeating that Jesus had said,

  472. even the Spirit of Truth, whom the world cannot receive.

  473. The world cannot receive because it seeth him, not neither

  474. knoweth him. But you know him, for he dwell with

  475. you and shall be in you. He don't just dwell

  476. with you, He also dwells in you. But the world

  477. know him. Not. I ain't saying nothing bad about the world,

  478. Just Jesus speaking here. Amen. The Gospel of Jesus Christ

  479. reveals to us in clear language. Somebody said clear that

  480. it is the Spirit of Truth that will accomplish when

  481. he comes in you. And when he comes, he will

  482. reprove and make known our convict the world of sin, descripture,

  483. and of righteousness and judgment. This necessary reproof brings illumination

  484. to the darkness of man. That's what the Spirit of

  485. Truth does. He's gonna bring an illumination because he comes

  486. to convict, not me. I'm just telling you what God says.

  487. It's not my job to convict you. That's the job

  488. of the Holy Ghost. Ay man. My job is just

  489. to tell you the word, try to plan to see,

  490. but it's gonna illuminate to the darkness of man. The

  491. spirit of truth is gonna illuminate what's hiding in man.

  492. For what causes man to face his demons and face

  493. the bondage that he's in. That's what that light does.

  494. It calls you to face your demons as well as

  495. place man in a position in a position of accountability.

  496. It causes you to be accountable for some of us

  497. won't take it, but you have to be accountable to God,

  498. not me. Folk run around telling out well, they don't

  499. tell pastors. You ain't worry about telling me. You not

  500. held accountable to me. You held accountable to God. I'm

  501. a held accountable to God. That's why I can't be

  502. in no booth talking about listen to you talking about

  503. I have sin. Priests forgive me. The priest will say,

  504. so are thy son, get about his box and go

  505. with me to the altar. How you ain't held accountable

  506. to me? They still practicing that foolishness. And that's the

  507. reason why God has revealed all of the damnable things

  508. these priests are doing in this Castolic church. Because the

  509. practice is out of order. Let me just say it

  510. like this. It's a lie. It's not the truth. We

  511. only accountable to God. That boop you go in, and

  512. that wall between you represents the veil. The veil in

  513. the Bible says it's been wricked, writed, and it says

  514. it is safe from the top to the middle. It

  515. says from the top to the bottom. So it's wide open.

  516. It's what it's trying to say. In other words, the

  517. door is open for you now to bring your convictions

  518. to God on your own. You don't need nobody to

  519. carry your stuff. You got it. It say, carry your

  520. own stuff, and you can't carry nobody else's. You pray

  521. for him, but you can't carry the stuff. The Gospel

  522. reveals to us clearly, it's clear, clear language that we

  523. are put in a position by the Holy Ghost to

  524. be accountable to God and God alone, because the promise

  525. of the indwelling Spirit of God, like all other promises,

  526. must be received. How you with me. It's there, but

  527. you must receive it. Salvation is there, but you must

  528. receive it. He gonna make you take it. I told

  529. you a long time ago three things I know God

  530. don't do He don't force feed, He don't kidnap, and

  531. he don't break it in it. He don't do them thing.

  532. He ain't gonna kidnap you. In other words, he ain't

  533. gonna kidnap the devil's children. He ain't gonna forcefeed you

  534. the word of God, and he ain't gonna break into

  535. your heart. You're gonna have to let him in. So

  536. he ain't into those things. So the spirit of promise,

  537. of the Spirit of Truth is a promise to all

  538. of us, but we must receive it. We must receive

  539. the Spirit of truth, the spirit that was promised. We

  540. must receive it. Hey, man, before it can be accomplished,

  541. we must receive it. There's no way he can accomplish

  542. his purpose in us that we don't receive it. And

  543. we know what the purpose of the Holy Spirit is

  544. to come in us, but it can't accomplish it unless

  545. we receive it. It said Jesus could not Jesus did

  546. not do many miracles where he came from, because the

  547. prophet is not honor in his own home. Yeah, they

  548. don't understand Lisa in whole home because she saved, sanctified,

  549. and they ain't ain't nonhing standing at Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, okay, okay,

  550. you can you can hear me, I hear you. See,

  551. a prophet is not honored in his own home. They

  552. they look they said this, you're talking about him. Joseph. Boy,

  553. that's how they looked at him. Joseph mooy. Now that's

  554. Jesus' son. Man help me. Yeah. Some did come good

  555. at a nights, but they didn't know it mentality. That's

  556. why the Bible says that the world cannot receive it

  557. because it seid him not. They couldn't see it, so

  558. they couldn't receive it. But you, the Bible says, shall

  559. know him, for he dwells in you, and he shall

  560. for he dwells with you, and he shall be in you.

  561. Clearly the Gospel reveals this to us. So this promise

  562. must be received to accomplish its purpose that God gave

  563. it to us. For Jesus says he had to go,

  564. and I'm gonna leave you another comforter, but you have

  565. to receive him, just like they had to receive Jesus.

  566. Jesus came that they all receive him. He went, but

  567. as I go, I send you another comforter. So receive

  568. him who may He's not gonna force it on you.

  569. Why because God wants what you do for him to

  570. be truth, amen, and not alive, and not for comfort

  571. for truth. So before the spirit can be received in

  572. that inn, a man, man must be set apart for

  573. God as well. During one of the prayers for us

  574. who believe, did y'all get that this prayer was for

  575. those who believed, Jesus petitioned the Father for us. You

  576. can't get no better than that. I can petition the

  577. Father for you, but it ain't like Jesus. Yeah. So

  578. Jesus petitioned the Father in this manner, and this is

  579. the way he petitioned him for us. I pray not

  580. that I pray, not that they that thou should have

  581. taken them out of the world. I'm not praying that

  582. you take them out of the world, but that they

  583. should have keep them from the evil. They are not

  584. of the world, even as I am not of the world.

  585. And then he goes on to say, sanctify them, talking

  586. about the believers, set them apart from the world. Sanctify

  587. them through what through his truth. That's how you gonna

  588. get sanctified Through the truth of God. Thy word is truth.

  589. That's John chapter seventeen fifteen through seventeen, if you want

  590. to read it for yourself. But I quoted it from

  591. the Bible. I ain't make that up. Thy word is truth,

  592. and thy word is Jesus. Jesus Christ is the word

  593. of God manifested in flesh. Only complete say, complete surrender

  594. to the Lord will place us in Christ, Jesus, who

  595. sanctifies us in him, John seventeen and nine. Only complete surrender.

  596. There's though such thing as partial surrender. People, It's no

  597. such thing. Ain't no halfway house with God. You either in.

  598. Oh yeah, ain't no halfway ain't no. It ain't no

  599. such thing as traveling the fence. They made that up

  600. to sound good, but it's not true. You can't straddle

  601. the fence. You either in. Are you out? That's truth?

  602. So you say complete surrenders, pastor I'm glad, y'all asked, Yeah,

  603. that's what I said. What is it? It is the foundation,

  604. foundation or element. This is what it's complete is of deliverance,

  605. though it isn't the will of God. That man find

  606. himself in bondage is not God's will. Man's inventions, his desires,

  607. his skin have taken him captive. His own desires have

  608. taken him captive. And God didn't do that. You did

  609. it to yourself because God gave you choice. I just

  610. told you he ain't in the force feet. God gonna

  611. feed you this word. You got to get in this

  612. word and get it for yourself. And when you get

  613. this truth, when you get in this word, then this

  614. word gets in you, hey man, just like when you

  615. get in the world, the world gets in you. You

  616. ever see mothers have this this strong intuition when they

  617. see their kids hanging with the wrong person. They know, Uh,

  618. he gonna wind up being messed up. Why because he's

  619. hanging around the wrong people. He's hanging around worldly people.

  620. The world gonna get into them. I didn't teach you

  621. to you, I ain't teaching him that. I ain't raised

  622. him that way. All prayers say, I ain't raised him

  623. that way. Now, you didn't raise him that way. But

  624. because he got out there and got lost in the world,

  625. the world raised him that way. So it got in

  626. him because he was in it. So when you get

  627. in the word, then the truth will get in you,

  628. and then the truth will give you complete deliverance. Are

  629. your with me? Because the desires of man, and the

  630. wickedness of man comes from man himself. Man has caused

  631. himself to be in captivity to sin. Because my Lord,

  632. and say, if you died on the cross of sin

  633. and made us free of it, you fight with it

  634. because you don't want to let it go. The prophet

  635. Jeremiah says, the Lord tells us, if thy will return,

  636. O Lord, oh Israel. And that's what God's saying today.

  637. He's saying it right now. He's saying it right now.

  638. If thou will return, old people of God, Oh, if

  639. the church would return, said the Lord, return unto me,

  640. because the Church has gone astray. And God is speaking

  641. loud today. If all, if you just return unto me,

  642. and if thou will put away thy abominables, this out

  643. of my sight, then shalt thou not remove are cause

  644. you to be moved, Are to be shaken? Because God

  645. won't violate are y'all listening. He will not violate the

  646. free will he created in us. He will not. That's

  647. the reason why Jesus had to come. Because of what

  648. Adam One did. He couldn't violate his word. He could

  649. not violate the free will. See, man must choose to

  650. put down his devices. Man must choose to put his

  651. own vices down in devices and cast him from himself.

  652. Only when man, y'all have to listen to this, Take

  653. this in. This is gonna be very vital to you.

  654. Only somebody say, only only when man wills to be

  655. delivered will the true power of deliverance have access to

  656. change the inner man. Only when man wills to be delivered,

  657. will the true power of deliverance have access to change

  658. the inner man. Watch this, Though it is desire, are

  659. lust that takes man captive? Your will has dominion over desire.

  660. Did y'all get that? See you may desire to do something,

  661. but if it ain't your will to do you ain't

  662. doing it. It's not till it's your will to do

  663. that it will overpower your desire to want to do it.

  664. It's a whole lot of people in hell that desire

  665. to be saved, but they will didn't kick in. So

  666. the will has dominion over desire. A will for deliverance

  667. always renders the desire to remain in bondage, remain powerless.

  668. See desires powerless to the will. When deliverance becomes our will,

  669. it lines up with the divine, divine and supreme will

  670. of who God and the Spirit of Truth comes in

  671. and gives us the power to walk in liberty, liberty

  672. through our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Likewise the Holy Ghost,

  673. because the Holy Ghost is a constrainer, for he keeps

  674. us from doing the things that our contrary to God.

  675. The truth. I'm almost done, y'all. Hole over. The truth

  676. as manifested by God's Almighty is erected. It's upright and

  677. cannot be to fit. Didya get that? The Truth as

  678. manifested by God Almighty is erect upright, and cannot be

  679. bent to fit or to conform to the crooked conditions

  680. of men. Can't do it. You can't bend God's Truth.

  681. If you try to bend it, bounce up, don't stay straight.

  682. Can't bend it. Man. I'm just gonna be in the

  683. truth a little bit now. You telling a lie. You

  684. ain't been in no truth. Truth won't be in for

  685. people say, I'm just gonna be in the truth. I'm

  686. just being in the truth a little bit. Now. You

  687. ain't been in no truth. You lying come to understand

  688. that's what you're doing, because you ain't been in no truth,

  689. because truth don't being not the truth of God, it

  690. don't be in it won't being to fit crooked man's condition.

  691. Man must take hold of the truth and pull himself

  692. upright and straighten up to the truth, because the truth

  693. not gonna straighten up to you. Truth is a delivering

  694. Truth is the delivering and transforming power of God. And

  695. what it does, It takes us out of the darkness,

  696. Hey man, It takes us out of the darkness of

  697. this world. Truth does. That's why we can see so

  698. clearly us who I believe us, and the truth is

  699. it and we're walking in the truth with me, we

  700. walking in the Holy Spirit of God. We can That's

  701. why we can see stuff. We see stuff out. You

  702. see stuff all the time. They come in your job,

  703. lying like a doll. You'll be like, yeah, you lying.

  704. You wouldn't nowhere. Yes's why you sposed. You know you're

  705. supposed to been here. You flopping around somewhere else doing

  706. something you ain't gonna business. But you don't say that.

  707. But you can see that because the truth will help

  708. you see. Amen. Ah, hold to the truth that you

  709. may pull yourself upright and be straightened. Amen. Because the

  710. truth has delivering power, a deliverance power. Amen. See, the

  711. truth has delivered delivering power. Because the truth can transform,

  712. It has transforming power. Are you with me? The truth

  713. has transforming power, and it can transform us to that

  714. deliverance and bring us out of the bondage that we

  715. put our own self in. But when we have truth,

  716. we don't walk in darkness of this world no more.

  717. We can see what the world does, what it does

  718. and runs into things because he can't see. It can't

  719. see spiritually. It can see with its natural eyes, but

  720. it can't see spiritually. That's why all the folk voted

  721. for Donald Trump. They couldn't see spiritually. They were looking physically.

  722. They were looking out of wont and greed, and it

  723. backfired on because they was in darkness and guse he

  724. was leading them, and he in darkness. But when we

  725. walk in the transforming power of God, which is the Truth,

  726. it takes us out of the darkness of the world.

  727. And when it takes us out of the darkness of

  728. the world, it places us into the kingdom of His

  729. dear son, in whom we have redemption through His blood,

  730. even the forgiveness of sins. Hey man, When we walk

  731. in this the Bible clearly says in the Book of

  732. Colossians and the first verse and the the first chapter. Rather,

  733. in the thirteenth verse, the Bible says, who had delivered

  734. us from the power of darkness and had translated us

  735. into the kingdom of His dear son, in whom we

  736. have redemption through His blood, even forgiveness of sin and scripture.

  737. And to make that up. So if we are so,

  738. here's the thing. If we're still I'm getting ready to

  739. come to a conclusion, So y'all can leave here and

  740. go do nothing. But I'm coming to a conclusion. If

  741. we are still experience in bondage, then that means total

  742. surrendering is and yet a factor in our life. Okay,

  743. y'all want me to say it again, I will. If

  744. we're still experiencing bondage, then total surrenderings is not being

  745. perfected in our life, is not yet a true factor

  746. in our life. Amen. And if we have not totally surrendered,

  747. we know it is solely due to our needing to

  748. give more of ourselves to the Lord. That's why it's

  749. not a total factor. Because we know. I don't know.

  750. I said we know, And what I mean by we

  751. know it means you know what you know. I don't

  752. know what you know, but I know what I know.

  753. And I don't know what you know, but I know

  754. what I know. So if you ain't got complete surrenderings,

  755. then you don't have the fact of true deliverance, a

  756. true deliverance. But I don't know. Only you know, Amen,

  757. only you know. If you still experienced in bondage, then

  758. you haven't totally surrendered it all to God. But I

  759. don't know that. Only you know, because you only one

  760. that know what it is. Amen. See, if you ain't

  761. totally surrendered, it's due to the fact that you need

  762. to give more of yourself to the God, to the Lord.

  763. And somebody saying, if we are giving God our very

  764. best and all and all in all? If I said,

  765. if we're giving God our very best and are all

  766. in awe, deliverance is a fact in our life, for

  767. we are subject to the will of God. On the

  768. other hand, there's another hand, If there's another If somebody say, hey,

  769. we know we could be giving God more of ourself.

  770. Question why are we not doing so? Another question? Who?

  771. What's his name? What's her name? What's their names are?

  772. What are we holding out? On God? For who you

  773. holding that on God? For? What are you holding out

  774. on God? For? Who is it? Or what is it for?

  775. Whatever it is? Thank you, sister, it is not worth it. See,

  776. if you're holding out on God, you got to ask yourself,

  777. is this worth me dying and going to hell? There?

  778. You got it right there that I'll just straighten you

  779. all the way up. It's that's simple. Oh yeah, this

  780. ain't no shopping message. I know. God told me that

  781. when I left the health. See, we gotta stand fast.

  782. We gotta stand fast. And therefore in the liberty where

  783. with Christ had made us free. See what we gotta

  784. stand fast in the liberty in which God made us

  785. free in the first place. We gotta stand fast in

  786. that liberty He gave it to us freely, hey man,

  787. And be not entangled again with the yok of bondage

  788. Galations five and one. This is a very very important

  789. admonishment to us all that we be not entangled again

  790. with the yok of bondage, because I'm here to tell

  791. you I've seen it, I've watched it. When you get

  792. entangled with the yok of bondage again, it somehow brings

  793. mo hands. It brings more hands to hold on you,

  794. and your fight is greater than it was before when

  795. you allow yourself to be entangled again with the yoke

  796. of bondash. It's very important to understand. So this should

  797. compel us to keep ourselves free from the entrappment of

  798. the lure of sin. Why because once it grabs a

  799. hold of you again, it's hard to get a loose.

  800. I got a brother right now in Michigan. He's fighting,

  801. trying to get away, keep falling shot. I said, you

  802. ain't let it go yet. Brother. I can tell just

  803. by talking to you and listening to your conversation. And

  804. I begin to keep talking, he don't say a word.

  805. That's evident that what I'm saying to him he know

  806. is true. And then when he do speak, Yeah, brother,

  807. there it is. I said, I know, man, I warned

  808. you against the fall you was about to take, and

  809. you still didn't protect yourself free will. Nobody did it

  810. to you. You did it to your own self. So

  811. people today with this understanding that Jesus is the Son

  812. of God, and that Jesus Christ is the Word of

  813. God manifested in the flesh, we must also grasp and

  814. understand that if the sun therefore and he did, shall

  815. make you free, he shall be free. Indeed, that's the

  816. only freedom you're gonna get it. Get it from the

  817. Sun and man. Because Jesus Christ came into the world.

  818. This is why he came in the world. He ain't

  819. have to come here. He came to make us free.

  820. He came into the world that we might have liberty,

  821. which is freedom. We have the so we have the

  822. obligation somebody say obligation, say it again of walking in

  823. the liberty glory. Find God in our body, in our

  824. body and spirit which is his. So let the spirit

  825. of the Lord and the spirit of our Lord, Jesus Christ,

  826. of the Living God, let him come into our hearts

  827. today a man completely. Whatever's in there that's empty or

  828. it's holding space, feel it and move it. Whatever's in

  829. there is your empty space, feel it. Whatever in there

  830. that's don't need to be in there, move it. Are

  831. your with me? If it's empty, feel it, if it's

  832. in the way, move it. Aymen. So we got to

  833. come so he can come into our heart and that

  834. wull be the beloved of God, and that we that

  835. we may have all the desires that he has for

  836. us and the to do ay man, because this is

  837. what he desires of us. It is his will for

  838. us to walk in the spirit of truth on his

  839. own return. I should have said, on this return of

  840. the Lord, let us shed all the deeds of the

  841. old man and put on all somebody say all of

  842. the new Man, and forever walk in the newness of

  843. Jesus Christ. This day. I don't comb what you did yesterday.

  844. I only camach you did before you got here. But

  845. I'm talking about right now and being mindful, Say mindful,

  846. Say mindful that in God is no darkness at all.

  847. Be ever mindful that though we shall have trouble in

  848. this world. We shall have trouble in this world. Say trouble,

  849. we're gonna have it. Say we're gonna have it. He

  850. told us we're gonna have it. So be mindful, be

  851. ever mindful that though we shall have trouble in this world,

  852. the Lord Jesus Christ has overcome the world. So the

  853. trouble ain't no trouble. Because if you mindful that we're

  854. gonna have trouble in this world, be also mindful that

  855. Jesus Christ has overcome the world. He has overcome the world.

  856. And in him, I said, in him, so in him.

  857. If Him is in you, that is in you too.

  858. Because in Him that's in you. Amen, we can be

  859. of good cheer and quick panicing about the wickedness that's

  860. going on in this world. Amen. Jesus has done it

  861. all for us. We need only but remain in Christ

  862. Jesus unmovable. And if we stay unmovable and stay at

  863. fast it is our victory is assure. Amen. If we

  864. stay unmovable, unshakable in Jesus Christ, our victory is asure. Amen.

  865. I said a lot. But if you don't get nothing else,

  866. walk in the spirit of truth. Amen. We're standing at

  867. this time. I want us to be mindful of our

  868. brother and the death of his brother, brother James. Brother. Amen,

  869. y'all give me one moment and wearing a coup of

  870. hat chair. But let us be mindful of our brother James,
