It's really not that he'll work it out. He already

We just have to stand in the stand still for
-
the manifestation of what's already done.

-
Y'all speak directly to you. Don't have a place in here.
-
Go back to the dry places, go back to where
-
you are wanted.
-
You're not wanted here.
-
There's no room for you here, for the house is
-
filled even now with the spirit of God.
-
And that you feel these temples to overflowing. God.
-
That the witness to some lost souls and to help God,
-
the Kingdom of Heaven and Jesus name, I praise, thank God,
-
Thank God, and the Church say ay man, Amen and Amen.
-
May be seated in the house of the Lord. Amen, Son,
-
stand at the door. Amen, Thank the Lord God. Let
-
us go to the Book of Ephesians. You can sit there,
-
you can be seated. You big the Book of Ephesians,
-
the fifth chapter, starting at the first verse. Today we're
-
gonna be talking about living by the spirit of God power,
-
living by the spirit of God's power, not by the
-
spirit of your own power. Got the spirit of your
-
grandmama's power. My granny spirit's up in here. How your
-
granny spirit up in here. If somebody had told you wrong,
-
it will give Ephesians the fifth chapter, in the first verse,
-
say man, when you get there, wait on me. If
-
you're not there, hey man, hey man. Let us stand
-
for the reading of God's word. The Bible says in
-
Ephesians chapter five, for the hearing of God's people. Be
-
there for followers of God. This is talking to the
-
believer as dear children, and walk in love, as Christ
-
also had loved us and had given himself for us,
-
an offering and a sacrifice.
-
To God for sweet smelling Savior.
-
But fornication and all uncleanness our covertreusness. Let it not
-
be once named among you as becometh saints, neither filthiness,
-
nor foolish talking, norjusting, which are not convenient, but rather
-
giving of thanks.
-
For this, ye know that.
-
No hormungal, nor unclean person, nor coveteous man who is
-
an ourdulter, had any inheritance in the Kingdom.
-
Of Christ and of God.
-
Let no man deceive you with vain words, For because
-
of these things come in the wrath of God upon
-
the son's children of disobedience.
-
Be not ye therefore partake us with them.
-
For ye were sometimes darkness, but now ye are light
-
in the Lord walk It's children of light. For the
-
fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and righteousness
-
and truth, proving.
-
That he is acceptable into the Lord.
-
And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of.
-
Darkness, but rather reprove them.
-
For it is a shame even to speak of these
-
things which are done of them in secret. But all
-
things that are reproved are made manifest by the light.
-
For whatsoever do it make manifest is light Wherefore.
-
He said, awake thy that sleepeth, and arise from the dead,
-
and Christ shall give thee light.
-
See then.
-
That ye walk circumstance effectively, not as fools, but as wise,
-
redeeming the time, because the days are evil. Wherefore he
-
be not unwise but understanding what the will of the
-
Lord is. Can the church say, man, you may be
-
seated in the house of the Lord. I'm gonna break
-
these down. I'm gonna break these down for your understanding.
-
Amen. Amen.
-
Paul here in these scriptures describes the actions that are.
-
Unsuitable.
-
If you will, he's describing actions that are unsuitable. Everybody
-
know the dimpting unsuitable and suitable. Okay, so he describing
-
stuff that's unsuitable among the Christian community. But Paul also
-
understood that this is a process. So because of our
-
relationship with God through Jesus Christ and the power given.
-
To us through the Spirit of God, we are to
-
become god like.
-
In our characteristics and obedient disciples in our lifestyles.
-
Are you with me so far? I don't want to
-
lose nobody. Stay awake. So Jesus a God speaks through.
-
Paul, and Paul says, be ye there for followers. He said,
-
be ye there for a followers. He talking to the believer.
-
He's talking.
-
He's telling the believers the suitable things you should be doing.
-
As believers.
-
Be therefore follows of God as dear children. So he's saying,
-
just as children imitate their parents, the believers should follow
-
God's example.
-
What was God's example Jesus Christ.
-
We should be following the example of Jesus Christ because
-
he is the believers examples hey man one Peter chapter two,
-
in verse twenty one says, for even here unto.
-
Where ye called, So.
-
You call because Christ also suffered for us.
-
I didn't say for me. I said for us. But
-
what do he do?
-
But then he leaving us an example that ye should
-
follow his steps, who did no sin.
-
Neither was God found in his.
-
Mouth, no deceit, No deceit was found in his mouth, who,
-
when he was revealed, reveiled not again when he suffered
-
he threatened, not because they talked about him. He ain't
-
talk about them, but committed himself.
-
I'm telling you.
-
About the example of Jesus Christ. He committed himself to
-
him that judges righteousness, who his own self bore our sins.
-
In his body on the tree, that we, being dead
-
to sins, should live unto righteousness by whose strife he
-
were healed. For you were a sheep going astray, but
-
a noun returned unto the shepherd, and the bishop of
-
your souls, the bishop, meaning the overseer of your soul.
-
That's all a bishop is, is the overseer. He realized.
-
The bishop is not even in the five four ministry.
-
It's a desire position of the pastor a man somebody,
-
and he is the overseer of your soul. That's the
-
reason why I give you word, because God has made
-
me the overseer of your souls.
-
And so I do all that God commences me to
-
do and commands me to.
-
Do, to give to you so that your soul can
-
be right and laying in a rightful place.
-
So Paul goes on to say, and walk in love.
-
As Christ also had loved us and had given himself
-
for us, an offering and a sacrifice.
-
To God God for sweet smelling roma.
-
It's only the sacrifice can only be sweet smelling to God.
-
How you with me, it can only be sweet smelling to.
-
God if the sacrifice is is not like the sacrifice
-
that Cain gave.
-
That's what messed up came.
-
See, his sacrifice wasn't the sweet smelling sacrifice or a
-
Roman to God because he gave it in the wrong attitude.
-
So your sacrifice, you got to be in the right
-
attitude when you sacrifice, And if you have the love
-
of Jesus Christ.
-
You will be hey man. So he's telling us to
-
walk in love.
-
So when we walk in love, it characterizes our oneness.
-
With Jesus Christ, because.
-
Jesus Christ is love. So when we walk in it,
-
it gets character that we are walking in Jesus. So
-
as we as believe us, should live a life filled
-
with love, not just for ourselves but for others, not
-
just for your family, but for others. Not just for
-
your children, but for others. Not just for your wife,
-
but for others. Not just for your family members, but
-
for others.
-
Because He loves everybody. And if we walking in love
-
were walking.
-
In Jesus, who's gonna love that bad? We ain't gonna
-
He's not gonna be partial with his love. I don't
-
care what folks have done to you, you still are
-
commanded to love them hard pill to swallow us swallow
-
it and get it over with. So we should live
-
a life filled with love for others, and that love
-
should be of the same.
-
Love that Jesus showed us. And when it is, it.
-
Becomes a sweet smelling aroma to God, which is acceptable
-
to God. Amen, it becomes acceptable to God in that
-
that we walk in the love of Jesus Christ. When
-
we sacrifice, love is a sacrifice because he said in
-
John fifteen again John fifteen, Saint John fifteen and verse twelve,
-
this is my commandment. Somebody say, commandment. Let me get
-
another one commandment that ye love one another.
-
And I have loved you. Oh oh, so he just
-
he's asking you to love. Brother. Oh, he ain't asking.
-
This is a commandment, so he ain't asking. Hm. Okay,
-
mm hmm, so he ain't asking. We got that clear now.
-
So he commanded us to love, and he's he not
-
commanding us to love in any kind of way.
-
He's commanding us to love the way Jesus loved us.
-
That's why I be thoroughly confused sometimes, somebody help me.
-
When you call yourself a Christian and you have a
-
hard time loving, for I get confused.
-
How you call yourself a Christian? Because a Christian means
-
to be christ Like.
-
And I just, I just I just gave an understanding
-
of what Paul was doing with these with these scriptures.
-
Was he was telling us how to be how to.
-
Walk as a believer, and loving one another is part
-
of the walk.
-
I get it. Later he goes on to say, but funication.
-
And all uncleanness, our covertness, let it be not once
-
here's the key.
-
Let it be not once name, Let it be not
-
Let it not be.
-
Once named among you as becoming saints. Notice it says,
-
as becoming saints. So this means that it is not
-
proper for Christians to be guilty of committing the sexual sins.
-
Least here we see as becoming saints.
-
Hey man, so you can't be guilty of this stuff
-
no more.
-
But funication and all uncleanness, our covertness, let it not
-
be once among Let it not be once named among
-
you as becoming saints.
-
Amen.
-
So a Christians shouldn't be guilty of committing the sexual
-
sins listed here, the ones that have just listed, Amen,
-
and so not be once named, as the scripture says,
-
means such deeds should not even be the topic of
-
normal conversation with the saints of God.
-
I'm showing you how to walk.
-
According to what the Lord had given policy.
-
Now watch this, you're a Christian.
-
Neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor jesting, which are not convened, but.
-
Rather giving of thanks.
-
So Paul cautions that improper language should have no place
-
in a Christian's conversation.
-
Because it does.
-
Not reflect God's gracious presence in us. Let me say
-
that again, because I like the way they says so.
-
In other words, Paul saying he ain't saying nothing. He's
-
cautioning us, as the.
-
Saints and the believers of God, that improper language should
-
not have no place in our conversation.
-
Why because it does.
-
Not grace the presence of God that's in us.
-
It don't line up.
-
Hey, man, See the reason why these Christians try to
-
have the same conversation that the Heathens had cause they
-
trying to fit in.
-
I ain't tryna fit in. Y your conversation going to
-
the left.
-
I'm'a go to the right. And if it keep going
-
to the left, i'm'a get on down to the right.
-
I'm not gonna continue to sit there and hear all
-
that filthing that's coming out your mouth, cause it's affecting
-
my soul. Y'all just set up under anything here and
-
let people just talk any kind of way, but you.
-
Ain't letting them talk.
-
That's what they do, that's how they talk. But I'm
-
not finna set up under all that, Miss. I'm'a get
-
on down, cause what you talking about ain't proper ay Man,
-
and Paul cautions that improper language should.
-
Have no place in the Christians conversation.
-
It ain't got no place in you because it ain't
-
no place in Jesus, Amen. And the reason why because
-
it does not reflect God's gracious presence that's supposed to.
-
Be in us. Amen.
-
First five, I said for this, ye know that. No,
-
I don't even have explain this. I'm just gonna read
-
it to you. And it broke its own self down
-
for there for this, ye know. It's why we ain't
-
gotta break it down to you, because the Bible just
-
says for this year already know.
-
If you already know it, I ain't gonna take time
-
and try to break it.
-
Down because you already know. Hey, man, you'll already know.
-
Bible said you already know. Let me just tell you
-
what the Bible said, you already know. Bible said, ye
-
for this, ye know that no hord monger, no an
-
unclean person, nor a coveatuous man who is and our docter,
-
had any inheritance in the Kingdom of Christ and of God.
-
I ain't gota explain the tea. I ain't gotta break
-
the teeth. You ain't got no inheritance. You ain't making
-
it in the kingdom.
-
That's the best I can do. That's it. Moving right along.
-
Let no man deceive you in verse six with vain words.
-
You know what vain words are, the empty He ain't
-
talking about nothing, for because of these things coming the
-
wrath of God upon the children of disobedience. You know,
-
like that man was trying to get with you, there's
-
sus lame.
-
He wasn't talking about nothing, vain words. He was he
-
being vain. He wasn't trying to help you, trying to
-
help itself, he said, with your sexy self. He using
-
in vain words, trying to get trying to lure you in.
-
See, that's why we have to have that holy spirit
-
to quicken us. See the Bible said, let no man
-
deceive you with vain words. See it starts out with
-
let no man. The word let in scripture is something
-
you gotta do.
-
God ain't gonna stop her.
-
You've got something you gotta do well with God already
-
put in you to use the stopp her.
-
Let them not deceive you with vain words.
-
For because of these things, because of these things, the
-
vain words come in the wrapt of God upon the
-
children of disobedience.
-
But be not ye therefore partake us with them, Hey man.
-
These verses are connected to Ephesians four and fourteen, which
-
says that we hence, for it be no more children.
-
Tossed two and four and carried about with every wind
-
of doctrine by the slank of men, the trickery, in
-
other words, by the trickery and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie.
-
In wait to deceive. We ain't been food by that
-
no more.
-
Why because we in Jesus we got his wisdom. So
-
he's telling us in this verse Versus talking about false
-
teachers that had already influenced the church, teaching freedom in Christ.
-
That's what they're doing now.
-
But this Paul was talking about what they were doing then,
-
and that's what they're doing now. These deceivers with this trickery,
-
they've already infiltrated the church teaching freedom in Christ. But
-
what their freedom in Christ meant was from laws and rules.
-
That's what they were teaching, teaching freedom from laws and
-
rules and freedom to live any way you want to live,
-
and teaching made of doctrine. So see their teaching about
-
freedom in Christ is you.
-
Ain't got to bay at these rules and regulations. M M.
-
Now you free to do whatever you want to do.
-
That what they teaching.
-
They teaching you that it's allowed for a sinful lifestyle.
-
That's what they teaching is that's what they're teaching. Now,
-
that's what they're teaching.
-
The man got the homosexual, so called a pastor of
-
the devil was on the on the on the media
-
telling them, you know, it's okay for a man to
-
be with another man.
-
He was reading it out of man's doctrine. This is
-
what they teaching. This is the freedom they teaching.
-
It's okay because God told me to marry both of
-
these women. See, they're teaching you you can do whatever
-
you want to do.
-
That's the freedom they teaching.
-
But see verse eight says, for you are sometimes darkness,
-
but now you are light in the Lord. Not just light,
-
but light in the Lord, Walker's children of light darkness
-
in the case that we were once spiritually unlightened, once
-
was spiritually enlightened and accompanied ignorance. In our darkness, we
-
were ignorant. But when the light came on, knowledge and
-
truth now became a reality to.
-
Each and every one of us. So what, brother, you
-
ain't finna, You ain't finna spit on me and tell
-
me it's raining.
-
I got a light on it. I can see it.
-
Can't you spit on me. It ain't coming from up there.
-
It came from right there.
-
Huh. You ain't finna sell me nothing today? Right?
-
I can see now see why I was once unlearned
-
and I was once blind, But now because of the
-
light of Christ in me, I can see. And because
-
I can see now, I got to walk like he walked,
-
and see when he walked, he couldn't be fooled. You
-
can't trip me up. The Holy Spirit in me is quick.
-
It's much quicker than you. As a matter in fact,
-
it's so quick it hits me. For you get to me,
-
it tell me you coming, because it tell me you coming.
-
And then when you get there is that right. I
-
don't think so you need to move on. Yeah, I
-
don't care where you go, but get out of my way.
-
It says, for ye were sometimes darkness, not no more.
-
Verse nine says, for the fruit of the Spirit is
-
in all goodness and righteousness and truth, proving what is
-
acceptable unto the Lord. Ya did y'all hear? Did y'all
-
hear what God just said? I won't say it one
-
more time to God says for the fruit of the Spirit,
-
in all goodness and righteousness and truth, this is what's
-
proving what is acceptable unto the Lord.
-
For the fruit of the Spirit.
-
Hey man, Because of constant temptation and solicitation to evil
-
in this world today, believers must always be proving our
-
discerning what he is and.
-
What is not acceptable unto God always because the deceitfulness,
-
the trickery, the.
-
Solicitation, and the temptation is not going to stop. That's
-
why we should always be discerning what is and what
-
is not acceptable unto God.
-
And how no fellowship.
-
And help Lord, we think it's just alright to kick
-
it with anybody.
-
The good girl, a good person.
-
They tried to tell Jesi was good, and he told
-
me nothing good but the father.
-
I don't know how you a good person. I'm just
-
saying and having no and having no the word it it.
-
Don't say it having yes. It's it in having no.
-
Fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them.
-
Don't be hanging out with them, kicking it with them
-
doing what they're doing. If they sinning, you supposed to.
-
You're supposed to expose them. Light and darkness cannot coexist.
-
So the children of light must take no part in
-
the deeds of evil and darkness acts.
-
But we are to expose the sin.
-
And bring them into the light, hey man, showing them
-
for what they really are, so that they that are
-
the unbeliever may see.
-
Their hinderous nature and their trouble, some.
-
Consequences that they're gonna have to have because of their
-
evil nature.
-
Hey man, put that back. You ain't suppa to be
-
stealing that chicken. You gotta expose them. Put that cigarette there.
-
God didn't make your body to be smoked up in Huh.
-
We are to expose them. We love Put that in there.
-
So you got all the way back to the beginning
-
of this lesson. It's all walking in love.
-
We gotta be walking in love when we're doing this exposing.
-
You know, you can't slap the cigarette out of their mouth.
-
I've done that, but I wouldn't say when I did
-
it too, cause they were standing right beside me smoking,
-
and I hate smoking. I I I just I clocked
-
a plot, lips and everything. I ain't even apologize either.
-
You shouldn't have been standing beside me smoking, you sue,
-
he was smoking?
-
Do you you all in my space? Gotta do it
-
with love now, ain't man?
-
Somebody, sir, if you wouldn't mind, I don't really could
-
you mind?
-
Or not? To be honest with you, but can you
-
please go over there with that? See? But I had
-
to jump in.
-
Ecclesiastic if you don't move, Hey, man, somebody, But that's
-
how that's th that, that's what she what she liked.
-
On't e like and doctors don't coexist together, it don't.
-
You ain't got no business if you like and you
-
come in their.
-
Darkness, you gonna illuminate it. You're gonna expose it. Amen.
-
That's your job as the light of the world, to
-
expose the sins of the loss so they can understand
-
that they canna understand their evil, hinderous nature, and that
-
they and understand the terrible consequences because of it. Amen,
-
if you loved, if you got the love of Jesus
-
in it, that's what you wanna do anyway, Because as
-
the compassion, he shows all the loss, and it should
-
be in us to shine the light on the loss.
-
For it is a shame even to speak of those
-
things which are done of them in secret. See the
-
word Ford tells us why the Christian must expose the
-
sins of the loss, and then therefore bringing them into
-
the light.
-
Amen.
-
But all things are not reproved, m are made manifest
-
by the light. For whosoever do it make manifest is light. Okay,
-
this verse can be said like this. All sins that
-
are exposed are made.
-
Visible by the Gospel of Jesus Christ. See all the sins.
-
See See it's exposed by the Gospel, all sins.
-
Because the Gospel is a light, and the Gospels gonna
-
expose your.
-
Sin when it shines on it. See.
-
That's why you can say it like it's all sins
-
that are exposed. They are exposed and made visible by
-
the Gospel.
-
Soul.
-
Whatever sin is made visible becomes light. Hey Manerefore he said, awake,
-
die that sleep, See you don't even know you asleep,
-
and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light.
-
So since exposing sin is.
-
Beneficial, God here invites the sinner to turn from his sin.
-
That thy sleepeth, die that sleepeth, and then arise from
-
the dead.
-
With the promise.
-
He ain't just tell you to wake up and then't
-
tell you arise from the dead for no reason. But see,
-
once you take heed to this, there's a promise involved.
-
It says that he the promise is that he will
-
be granted the spiritual like minded of God, and he
-
will be enlightened and helped in his need by Jesus Christ.
-
And to know, it's gonna be Jesus.
-
Wherefore He's said, awake thou that sleep, and arise from
-
the dead, and Christ shall give thee light. So as
-
a promise, when you wake up and a rise, you're
-
gonna be granted spiritual enlightenment and and you're gonna be
-
hept in your needs by Jesus Christ.
-
So then.
-
See then that you walk circumspectully, not as fools, but
-
as wise because Jesus our examples. So we don't need
-
to be walking sircumspectully. Know man, we need to be
-
walking wise Jesus walk wise. We gotta walk wise.
-
Jesus our example.
-
That's why I'm not understanding these teachings today because they
-
go against when Jesus came to show us to do
-
that we may be pleasing to the Father.
-
Amen. So it tells us see then, that you walk circumspectully.
-
In other words, in walking circumspectully, you have to be
-
watchful and careful of how you live your life, ay man,
-
and make sure that the ways.
-
And the knowledge that you take of.
-
Jesus you apply it to yourself and to your everyday life.
-
And be especially aware of conduct amongst the unbelievers.
-
This is why these unbelievers get this mess.
-
How you a preacher, Yeah, you probably ain't no different
-
than that other preacher and the one that was with
-
that woman on the internet doing his thing, because he
-
was a preacher too.
-
Just meanwhile, you gotta you can't be walking like that.
-
Amongst them heathens because they think all of us like that.
-
They get it wrong, But it was one of us
-
that helped them to get it wrong. That's the reason
-
why we have to watch how we live as to
-
always take the knowledge of Jesus and apply it to
-
our everyday life, and be especially aware, always be especially aware.
-
Of your conduct amongst believers.
-
Now I can act, I can cut up with my brother.
-
I tell you why I can't cut out with the heathen.
-
He glory.
-
I can't cut up with the heathen like I can
-
cut up with my brother. Why because the heathen is
-
looking for faulting me. But my brother understands me when
-
I'm talking to him. He understands it's a clear, clean,
-
holy cutting up. But the heathen don't think we are
-
of even the Heathon, don't even think we should be
-
able to even joke.
-
Around a laugh. I've heard him say something I been on.
-
People have a y'all playing cards? Well, what card's evil?
-
Or somedding cards ain't evil. See, that's the reason why
-
you got to be careful how you how you.
-
Conduct yourself amongst the unbelievers, because see, they minds don't
-
understand the ways of God, and they minds don't understand
-
some of the things.
-
We are privilege to do. But it don't look right
-
to them because they don't know no better.
-
Hey, man, if I walk up the sister lane in
-
front of the heathens, kissy laying.
-
On the jaw. Look at him.
-
He got a white kissing all on that woman. The
-
Bible said, greech your brother with a holy kiss.
-
They don't know nothing about that. See, I ain't walk
-
up to him, try to slop it down. It's wrong.
-
Walk up to him and give a little kiss on
-
the cheek and see the heath, and he'll make some.
-
Stuff out of that.
-
I told you, he just hearing them Horde preachers gad
-
in him just like the rest of them.
-
Yeah, that's a good one. That's why.
-
That's why I only thinking you done gave him an
-
excuse not to come to the house of God. You
-
ain't gave him an excuse not to come to the
-
house of God.
-
They already were looking for one.
-
And because and even if you did what you did
-
in from him, that still ain't no excuse for him
-
not to come. They still ain't gonna be justified in
-
God's in God's sight when he comes for him. Redeem
-
the time, because the days of evil, redeem the time,
-
because the days are evil. That's why we got to
-
that's why we have to walk circumspectully, because.
-
We have to redeem the time. You don't know if
-
you're gonna get time to get that you're right with it.
-
So you're gonna have to watch how you walk in
-
and your conduct before the heathen because they might run off.
-
You might never see them again, and they gonna believe
-
in that mess.
-
So you gotta, you gotta, you gotta continue to be careful,
-
watch how you live amongst them. You gotta redeem the time,
-
which means you gotta make the most of every opportunity.
-
You gotta make the most, which we don't do. But
-
you have to make the most if you walk in
-
like if you walk in with the walk of Jesus Christ,
-
he never missed an opportunity to redeem the time. Never Contextually,
-
the specific opportunity in view is that the is that
-
of exposing the sins of the lost.
-
And being a witness to them.
-
This is contextually, in other words, with the text is
-
talking about never losing or never not taking the opportunity
-
of being a witness to the loss.
-
Right, why is that? Because what the scripture said, because
-
the days are evil. That's why you don't want to
-
lose the opportunity. Because the days are evil. This assigns
-
the reason to seize each.
-
And every opportunity because the sins being committed during.
-
These days are so evil. You can't miss a time.
-
Because the sins of this time they're so evil. People
-
doing stuff I ain't never heard people just people are.
-
Just the money.
-
I was driving down the street the other day and
-
as I was driving down the street, going over a
-
client's house, I turned the corner, I'm going this way.
-
As I turn left, there was a man on the
-
sidewalk boo booing. These are demonic time.
-
Your mind can't be right if you on the sidewalk
-
plain daylight, there wasn't night time where it pans down
-
to his ankle, fold it up, boo booing, right on
-
the sidewalk. The days are evil. Then he just pulled
-
his paying something, no leaves or nothing. Evil, demonic. That's
-
why we gotta That's why we have to redeem the time,
-
cause the days are evil, the evil, and you.
-
Know the days are evil. You shoot a man over
-
McDonald order. What's wrong? You didn't get no cheese on
-
your double? You shoot a man? The thea's evil.
-
They're so evil that you leave the establishment, and when
-
you leave, the evil beats you down.
-
So bad, you come back and shoot the person that
-
took your order. That's why we gotta redeem the time.
-
The days are so evil.
-
Wherefore verse seventeen and I'm done, be not unwise but
-
understanding talking to you. Believe us what the will of
-
the Lord is. Wherefore the Bible says right here. Wherefore
-
wordfore tells us to look back to the evil days.
-
And since the current days are so dangerous, we.
-
As Christians must clearly.
-
Understand what the will of God is and what the
-
Lord God wants us to do.
-
Amen. Amen, I'm done. Give the Lord a handclap the praise.
-
This is accomplished by living by the spirit of God's power. Amen.
-
Without the power of God in us, we can't walk
-
this walk. And the power of God is the love
-
of God in us.
-
Amen. The love of God is
