  1. You're listening to a message to go from axt church.

  2. We hope this message will light up your teath.

  3. Someone now is thinking about the marriage. Someone not thinking

  4. about the company. Someone is thinking about who you, my

  5. brother and my sisters. You know I haven't. Oh, you

  6. know I've lost faith in my family. Someone is thinking

  7. about you know. Do you understand? So the logos goes out.

  8. I'll tell you more about the logos. The word goes out,

  9. same word to one hundred and thirty people, but everybody

  10. getting a different Ramma. You can be seated here telling

  11. me I've studied the Bible from Genesis to Revelation three times,

  12. and I even memorize the concordance. I'll tell you something shocking.

  13. The devil also knows the logos. Let's talk about gramma

  14. for next couple of mine. Here we go, Rama, Rama,

  15. What is ramma? The next light will say is God's

  16. spoken word. Yeah, spoken word, a word spoken in real time,

  17. right now, not yesterday, not tomorrow, real time. You understand

  18. this right now where you're seated, real time, God's now word.

  19. It is God's now word for you, to you, through you.

  20. It will mean something to you when you receive it.

  21. The ramma word coming to you right now, real time.

  22. You see, how many have you understand this? I can

  23. be preaching the same message and one hundred and twenty

  24. maybe now more than a hundred twenty four yar Now

  25. we one hundred and thirty people here, one hundred and

  26. thirty of you could be receiving it a different way.

  27. Right Someone now is thinking about the marriage. Someone else

  28. thinking about the company. Someone is to thinking about who

  29. my brother and my sisters. You know I haven't oh,

  30. you know, I've lost faith in my family. Someone has

  31. to think about you know. Do you understand? So the

  32. logos goes out. I'll tell you more about the logos.

  33. The word goes out, same word to one hundred and

  34. thirty people, but everybody getting a different ramma because it

  35. is real time for you. It's real for you. It

  36. means something to you, anybody, Okay, all right? It is

  37. the word of God, released by the leading of the

  38. Holy Spirit at the right time to the right person.

  39. Now let's talk about the logos, the logos. It is

  40. the Holy Spirit inspired written word of God. So it's written,

  41. not spoken. Spoken? Is ramma? Spoken? Is real time? Written?

  42. Can be written like since time immemorial, since the first day,

  43. since the first generation, written for a long time ago.

  44. Sometimes it's called the scriptures, the Holy scriptures all written

  45. out already. That's the logos. That's the written word of God,

  46. inspired written word of God. I want to bring you

  47. to Second Timothy now and just do a quick study.

  48. Second Tipity, chapter three, verse fourteen to seventeen says, but

  49. you must continue in the things which you have learned

  50. and been assured of, knowing from whom you have learned them,

  51. And that from childhood or from long time ago, you

  52. have known the Holy scriptures. What is the Holy scriptures

  53. written which are able to make you wise for salvation

  54. through faith? So lorgos, the written word still meets faith.

  55. Somebody say, Amen, which is in Christ Jesus all scriptures?

  56. Somebody say, all scripture is given by inspiration of God

  57. and is profitable for doctrine. Remember I said doctrine is

  58. now the world, and worldliness is the doctrine. But the

  59. way the King of God, the Word of God, is

  60. also doctrine. All right, it's a way of life, all right.

  61. I won't finish reading it. Why knowing about rama is important,

  62. Let's get into that now. Why knowing about remma is

  63. important in other scriptures that speak of ramma. I hope

  64. that when I go through the scriptures now, you won't

  65. be surprised at some of these words that you thought

  66. was just word, or you thought was logos, and actually

  67. it's rama. So I will read it to you and

  68. we will go through it, and I pray that you'll

  69. be so encouraged before the day is done that God

  70. has got a purpose for logos, a purpose for rama.

  71. And I want to tell you in advance that when

  72. it says in John fifteen, verse seven, we read earlier,

  73. if you abiding me and my words abiding you, that

  74. word words is rama. That's why my title is remain

  75. in the Rama. How many of you know that you

  76. can have logos but not be changed. You can be

  77. seated here telling me. I've studied the Bible from Genesis

  78. to Revelation three times, and I even memorize the concordance.

  79. It's very hard to do that. But concordance, guys, to

  80. those you who don't know, is a book where you

  81. will find both the Hebrew and the Greek translation. So

  82. when you search the Bible, you can take a word

  83. and go into the concordance, find the original word and

  84. get the original meaning, which is always very rich. If

  85. you abide in me. John fifteen, verse seven says, and

  86. my words, my rama. Oh it's not just logos, my rama.

  87. Then only you will asked what you desire, and then

  88. you'll be done. And that's why a lot of us

  89. haven't seen God move in such power, because it's the

  90. logos only that abides in us, but not the rama,

  91. the now word. Because I tell you why. You can

  92. even come into this rumor as a Bible scholar, but

  93. until you obey what God is telling you. Now, now

  94. you can sit in here, maybe even folding your hands

  95. and thinking, Ah, I know past, I know all this,

  96. but what are you doing about it? Has the logos

  97. become a ram? I'll tell you something's tucking. The devil

  98. also knows the logos why knowing about ramma is important?

  99. And other scriptures that speak of Ramma. Let's read Romans

  100. ten eight to ten. What does it say? The word

  101. rama is near you. Oh, in your mouth and in

  102. your heart. That is the word of faith. Oh, there

  103. you go again. Faith. You need faith for faithfulness that

  104. if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus, and

  105. believe in your heart that God has raised him from

  106. the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart

  107. one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is

  108. made unto salvation. Romans ten, verse nine to ten is

  109. one of the most important scriptures for assurance of your salvation.

  110. If you really want to know that you're saved, go

  111. back to Romans ten nine to ten, because it tells

  112. you you will be saved. If this happens, you confess

  113. with your mouth. You believe in your heart. So everyone

  114. and you speak to I don't know, but I'm saved

  115. or not? Tell them Romans ten nine to ten. The

  116. Bible says, as long as you have these two things,

  117. believe with all your heart, confess with your mouth. Yes.

  118. But before verse nine and ten is verse eight. And

  119. what does verse eight say? Rama? That's why if you

  120. want to understand why you say, but pastor, I've been

  121. trying to reach my brother for thirty five years, and

  122. I gave him the logos. Can you hear this? I

  123. get excited when what comes alive I can give him logos.

  124. I keep working him with the logos. God, say you die,

  125. God say you go to hell God logos logos. You

  126. know when a person get safe when the rama comes. Yeah,

  127. I'm telling you right now, and your own salvation. So

  128. you look back and see you look back and see

  129. the day. I don't know what happened to me on

  130. the day, but suddenly suddenly, huh Rachel the floor. Yeah,

  131. you get into the floor. Though all this time that

  132. you know the word of God, it's called a hammer,

  133. and you felt hammered, hammered into salvation. You will never

  134. get there until it becomes rare. So ramma is important

  135. even for salvation. So when you're praying for your unsafe

  136. lo ones, don't you say, oh, more of God's logos.

  137. I tell you what. You can paste the logos on

  138. all the billboards in Kerala he wants, he still won't

  139. get safe. You can take a helicopter and dropped as

  140. many hundreds of thousands of flyers. And because that's not

  141. the guarantee. The guarantees that when the Holy Spirit takes

  142. that logos and makes it ramma, it's got to be.

  143. My eyes are open, everybody, okay. First Peter one twenty

  144. three says, having been born again not of corruptible seed,

  145. but incorruptible through the word, the Rama of God, which

  146. lives and abides forever. I am born again. Come on now,

  147. I'm born again by Rama. Oh hallelujah. What else is

  148. important for ramma? I hope that you're not shocked by

  149. the next scripture. But emphiicient six seventeen says, take the

  150. helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which

  151. which is the Ramma of God law of us. Take

  152. the logos, and we just try to fight with the

  153. logos anyhow, anywhen, anyhow, any when, anyway, we just you know,

  154. and sometimes it works. Someplace it doesn't. And when it

  155. doesn't is because the Bible already says the soul of

  156. the Spirit is the rama, not just the logos, but

  157. the rama. It is God's word for now. That's why

  158. when some of our leaders come up, yes, you use

  159. sometimes you use the logos, use the written to word

  160. of God, use the written word of God. Maybe you

  161. read out of the Word, which is good. It is important.

  162. I'll tell you more about how important it is. But then,

  163. you know, you get into a rama situation where you say,

  164. and I believe that God is speaking to somebody here.

  165. Now the logos is no longer just written is spoken.

  166. And there's somebody here in this room who has been

  167. struggling with the addiction even to your phone, and you

  168. don't know how to break it. You know it is wrong,

  169. but you're so addicted to your phone it's that you

  170. can't live without it. And then the ramma comes out

  171. and then a person there goes, yeah, it's me. So

  172. even when you're preaching, you cannot just be logos. That's

  173. why you can go into a meeting and if it's

  174. only logos, a lot of people can be not only

  175. bored right and want to leave. Idia Hey, so long

  176. a da fifteen minutes, because even fifteen minutes can be

  177. very long if it's just logos. Some Bible schools, if

  178. you don't careful, it's just logos. That's why they said, oh,

  179. are you going to seminary or semetery? Yeah, that's what

  180. they used to say to me, past are you going

  181. to semonary or semetery? You need to understand what's going on.

  182. And that's why also some people can leave feeling so

  183. condemned because the Bible, the word of God, the logos

  184. of God, can be really really painful if you're just

  185. whacking people. Without rama, without ramma, people will not go.

  186. And it's okay to use the hammer as long as

  187. there's going to be healing. It's called a double aged sword.

  188. One cuts to open, one cuts to heal you with me.

  189. Every preacher here in the whole of ex Church has

  190. been taught to always use their own personal stories, make

  191. it applicable. That's why you'll hear us having our you know,

  192. even dirty laundry we are washing in front of you,

  193. because we're saying that's who we are, that's what we've done.

  194. But God is gracious, and God is good, and God

  195. is faithful, and then we apply Amen. The logos is important,

  196. but the ramma, and that's why some people, even young

  197. people can come to a meeting of hour was so boring.

  198. But when the ramma comes along with the logos, young

  199. people also can be blessed in meetings. I believe that

  200. a lot of people, a lot of adults coming to me,

  201. but young people being very bored no at the word

  202. no please, They probably just get bored at only logos.

  203. Young people cannot stay on lave for two hours of meeting.

  204. One hour. They cannot know you understand what are you

  205. talking about? Are you talking just about the logos only,

  206. or are you talking about a meeting that has Ramma.

  207. All right, God speaking now in a holy spirit leading

  208. kind of way. Next one, did you know that Emphesians

  209. five twenty five to twenty six also was Ramma, husbands,

  210. love your wives. Jesus Christ also loved the church and

  211. gave himself or her that he might sanctify and cleanse

  212. her with the washing of the water by the Ramma. Ahh,

  213. this is why I must go into a litting more.

  214. My father. It's a it's a very unique man and

  215. very talented man. I tell you he had his own troubles,

  216. own problems. All of us have fla but he was

  217. he can be violent if he didn't take his ganja.

  218. He was on ganja marijuana for thirty years of his life.

  219. So he wasn't a very nice man as far as

  220. being nice to his wife. There was one night where

  221. Mike Bernie Chin and Cynthia, you know, was arguing so

  222. badly upstairs. I was a fifteen year old young man,

  223. and I wanted to go upstairs to console Cynthia, but

  224. my father, Bernard Chin, his show name is Mike Bernie.

  225. His real name is Bernie. He came downstairs, asked me

  226. to go into the car with him, and I tell you, you know,

  227. he's just, He's just yeah. I mean, I don't know.

  228. I don't. I don't want to say anything more than

  229. I should about a man who's no longer with us.

  230. But thank God, my father and I accepted the Lord

  231. Jesus Christ on the same night at the stadium. Okay,

  232. you noticed a I won't I'll get into it otherwise

  233. we won't finish, all right, But just to say that

  234. he was he was quite insecure, not quite insecure, quite insecure.

  235. And men, listen to me. Men, insecurity is something we

  236. shouldn't have in our lives because it can kill us.

  237. It can kill our marriage, you can kill everything. You're insecure.

  238. You're always not good enough, always having to prove to

  239. your wife, prove to your kids that you're a man.

  240. You're a man. God loves you the way you are.

  241. Just be born like Jesus. However, you know that Jesus

  242. was a perfect man. Jesus was the perfect man. Why

  243. is it so quiet this place?

  244. Hun?

  245. Is it because you're thinking? Or is it because it's cool?

  246. So I see, I'm the only one who's all cool

  247. because I'm preaching it fire hanely all right. My father

  248. used to in our whole fellowship, which is our hope.

  249. You know, my father used to argue with the homes leader,

  250. homes leader, the home fellowship beater, Uncle Siping. His name

  251. is Uncle Piping hunger sipings mixed Chinese and Indian hunger

  252. shiping that idea, he's gone to back to heaven. He's gone,

  253. He's gone to back to heaven. And my father will say,

  254. Siping Siping, can you please tell my wife? The Bible

  255. says wives submit to your AskMen.

  256. Ah.

  257. Really, my father doesn't know any other scripture except wives

  258. submit to you ask me. He knows, he quotes it.

  259. I listened to a lot of arguments until I saw

  260. him cry so no one day when Uncle Siping, and

  261. until Lima not tried to explain no, but not before

  262. they say something to another. No, I already noticed one.

  263. And then he also says, husband, love of your wives,

  264. as Christ loves the judge, sacrificial love. No one is submission.

  265. One is sacrifice, for the man is always sacrificed. The

  266. man's greatest love language to his wife is sacrifice. If

  267. the wife takes a really sacrifice from him. He doesn't

  268. feel like a man anymore with me. If women always

  269. want to help drop the tree, la, they got a rubbish,

  270. you know, put out open the bottle, LA, fix the car,

  271. a base, her base, her base. You want to carry

  272. the umbrella? I don't know. And the husband, that's when

  273. I'm getting rid a little bit here. Then the wife

  274. is no. The man is usually thinking the umbrella, right,

  275. come there, I get read. Never mind you say you

  276. stay dry, you stay dry? No, no for all those

  277. who are doing your wife's like the hold upbrella, no worry. Yeah,

  278. don't mean he's a girl. My father, my father submit

  279. one time he couldn't get true to siping and Liman

  280. because he wanted lim An exciting sithing to talk to

  281. my my mom, okay, tell her. So people think the

  282. logos are in the marriage and keep working each I

  283. don't know. Tell me why. I saw a joke on Instagram.

  284. Why am I a woman? Always cook? And the man said,

  285. because you're supposed to give three meals at least to prisoners.

  286. I said, Joe, I thought that he was thinking. Joe

  287. used to God said you was love me children. God

  288. said you were at the logos, I tell you has

  289. killed many Christians. You know it's not friendly fire? Is

  290. unfriendly fire in your own home? Shouldn't God say you

  291. would go to church? Bob and your children will never

  292. go to church until the rama comes. Pray for the rama.

  293. Huh was your son, oh, come with musa? My mom

  294. always a shoot thing. Scriptures you need to me and

  295. in Old King James of order, why Bill Cosby said, son,

  296. I brought you into the world, I can take you out,

  297. says join. Don't do that. Sometimes preachers do that, right

  298. logos logos logo to huh uh, I don't know where

  299. I will go to church if I go looking now, No,

  300. give the logos logos very important. Don't forget that rama.

  301. So abide in what ram ramma because you can rememberize

  302. all the scriptures you want. But until you obey the

  303. word for today, you will never be in the rama. Okay,

  304. a few others. But he answered and said, okay, if

  305. you are the scriptures, he answered and said, it is

  306. written man shall not live by bread alone, but by

  307. every rama. Did you know that this was not logos?

  308. Well it shocked me with the first time I thought,

  309. I thought if I had a survey or a quizer,

  310. and people ask me, what do you think Matthew four

  311. four is logos or ramma. I would have said logos immediately,

  312. but he starts by saying, I man shall not live

  313. by bread alone? And how do we eat bread every day?

  314. Give us this day our daily bread? So it's rama.

  315. It's gotta be fresh fresh. That's why this makes sense.

  316. Are you living the fresh word of God? Or you're

  317. living some stale And that's why you think that Christianity

  318. is boring because there's no life. Am I encouraging somebody here?

  319. But Simon answered and said to him, Master, rebody is not.

  320. We have thought all night and caught nothing. Nevertheless, at

  321. your Radma, you tell me now, word, you tell me

  322. real time. Word, You tell me what I need to

  323. hear now, not just a bunch of logos, which is

  324. also very good, praise God. But what is saying to

  325. me now? Give up your handful, give up your your

  326. you know whatever it is, okay, your chocolates, give up

  327. your midnight snacks, give up your you know. I don't

  328. know what is the law saying to you now? But

  329. Simon beat answered him, Lord, to whom shall we go?

  330. You have the words of eternal life. So when you're

  331. walking with Jesus, you're not always getting logos. Only come on,

  332. when you're walking with Jesus, you're always getting fresh when

  333. you walk with Lord Rama, Monday, Rama, Tuesday, Ramma, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday,

  334. Sunday and Sunday. That's why people don't just leave church

  335. are because oh, I'm not being fed. Church on Sunday

  336. not feeding me. Why do you just talk about Sunday

  337. when you can have a relationship with Jesus every single

  338. day and he has the Rama of eternal life and

  339. he can speak to you six times a day, and

  340. on Sunday you just come. And even if the preacher

  341. is a donkey, God can still use a donkey. Somebody say, Amen,

  342. come fed, don't come to be fed. Come, don't come

  343. to be fed, and you will never be hungry, or

  344. at least I a should say starving again, if you

  345. wait for one day a week only to eat, you

  346. would die. And too many Christians are doing that. Acts

  347. sixteen six to ten now when they had gone through

  348. Frigia or Frigia and the region of Glacier or this

  349. is a very important word. I need to preciate to you.

  350. They were forbidden by the Holy Spirit. I believe that

  351. Pasaden was referring to this assay to preach a word.

  352. They were forbidden by the Holy Spirit. How do you

  353. know you're forbidden to preach? When you are asked to preach?

  354. You have to have not just see Logos tells you.

  355. What does Logos tell you? Come on, all those of

  356. you who have been part of access for a long time, Matthew,

  357. Chapter twenty eight, verse nineteen, go into all the world

  358. and preach the gospel megasciples. Yeah, that's Logs. Everybody here

  359. got it, So did Paul and Paul. When therefore I go,

  360. my marching orders go. Have you ever seen anywhere in

  361. the scripture Paul was praying about whether he should open

  362. the church somewhere never never jalarone, Hong Kong. Just go?

  363. Why because Logos already told you to go? No more

  364. red light, no with God, green light all the way.

  365. So has to be Radma to tell him here cannot

  366. not easy, but go, But hey, listen, even my shells,

  367. So they tried. H Bithynia, I don't even show produce

  368. you call it correctly. Maybe it's by tin nailswever the

  369. but the spirit, oh, the spirit, do not permit them.

  370. They are there. See they're going by logos. I hope

  371. you're catching these are but they're being let daily because

  372. they're walking with Jesus with rama and Radma is coming

  373. from the Holy Spirit. Don't I know you're supposed to

  374. go but here, don't there don't. But because logos and

  375. rama will never contradict. Even though even though two doors

  376. were closed, the door will still have to be open

  377. somewhere else. It will never be totally closed because the

  378. rama will never go against the rogos. Logos are ready

  379. green light everywhere, so close close. Then I think pauls

  380. looking up the heaven and say, hey, how can this be?

  381. I got two ramas, but the logos is still go yeah, yeah, no,

  382. hold on, I'll tell you. And then he gets a

  383. Macedonian call. Rama comes by having a living and loving

  384. relationship with God. Can I hear a good Amen? You

  385. have the way, you have the word, you have the weight,

  386. you now have the walk. I want to encourage everyone

  387. here in this room to have a fresh Neil walk

  388. with g says from today, because Ramdma only comes to

  389. those who are walking with the Lord. The devil doesn't

  390. have a relationship with God. He's not walking with the Lord.

  391. Therefore he will only ever know the logos, but he

  392. will not know the ramma. He will not know what

  393. God is talking to you around. The devil will not

  394. know if I'm preaching. And then Rachel is getting a

  395. totally different message in the harder because she just caught

  396. one word and Sundy, the rama is just walking in

  397. the heart right now, she's tearing. You know this. This

  398. is the thing, though, you preacher. Three people crying, four

  399. people laughing, because everybody is getting something a ramma. So

  400. the devil might know the logos. It is written, right, no, right,

  401. what you say? Okay? First off, if he says turn

  402. these stones into break, right, then Jesus is written, man

  403. shall not live by bread alone, but by every words

  404. out the mouth of God. Then he says, you know,

  405. throw yourself down from this spinnacle of the temple. For

  406. then the devil was it, For it is written he

  407. will give his angel charge over you. Right, So he

  408. knows the logos, but he would never know the rama

  409. that is going on inside. He never because this rama

  410. is privilege to the people who are walking with the Lord,

  411. I encourage all of you to continue to walk close

  412. and closer to Jesus. Walk with God, Walk with God

  413. Genesis five twenty four and Henot walk with God. Heno

  414. walked with God, and he was not for God to kim.

  415. This was the first taken by faith. Enoch was taken

  416. away so that he did not see death and was

  417. not found because God had taken him. For before he

  418. was taken he had this testimony. Oh Hallelujah. May all

  419. of your testimonies be a fresh testimony.

  420. We hope you've been blessed by this message. For more
