Believing Matters II - Bishop T.D. Jakes

On Wednesday night I thought that

believing

matters

and it does. It is the substrate of our faith. It is the substrate of our belief system. It is the substrate of our religion, please. It is the epitome of what defines us as Christians. Believe. Believing is powerful. necessary and important. I'm going to show you a quick recap of where we left off or what we did last week, just to let you know. I know it's been seven days. Many things happened. You've heard other sermons and been to them. In other places I have been to the supermarket and the shopping center.

I'm going to bring your mind back to where we were last Wednesday so we can move forward. Take a look at this. There is a fight right now about

believing

that original sin is actually unbelief at the root of the forbidden fruit is unbelief, so the enemy doesn't try to physically remove them from the garden, he tries to get them away from what they believe and then fix how the sin got in. . the world we have to move from unbelief to believing the gospel then it is designed to give you a new system of beliefs because god loved the world so much that he gave his only begotten son so that whoever believes will not perish but have eternal life I want See, believing is the central point of what defines you as a person of faith as a son of the king.

Believing is our only gateway to God. There is a fight right now about what you believe. The enemy is not behind your body, he is behind your body. belief system your belief system has to be built on something that is solid and something that is stable and something that is proven and something that is true and something that you trust in your belief system has to be built on god do you believe than the integrity of god? his integrity justifies your belief I believe in God I believe in his word I believe in what he said I believe he is capable I believe he loves me I believe he knows what is best for me What

matters

most is what you believe God wants you to believe him in the book of Romans he vacillates between addressing both Jewish and Gentile believers, ultimately making both need the same radical assignment of faith. said: you have religious traditions, you have had religious traditions for years, but the door is not your washings, your ceremonies or your cleansing you still have to believe God, she comes to the Gentile and tells him that you have entered into all kinds of lust, depravity , perversion and evil, he said, but the same door that exists for the religious man exists for the man, both have to do it.

Being brought down to the same humility of saying that if you don't believe in God you can't see the glory of God. Someone says I'm a believer, so let's take it from there and continue the dialogue because I couldn't really read the notes and I couldn't really get to the main point that I really wanted to address, so I had to stop where the holy spirit told me. stopped and continue this week and go further. I'm going to take a few minutes and I want you to understand that Paul wrote the book of Romans and this is his greatest work in an epistle.

It's his massive work. It is greater than any of the other epistles to which we attribute it. he is not addressed to any particular person like Timothy or Titus or anything like Philemon. It is written to the Romans in general, it speaks broadly to them, so what we must understand is that Paul is writing a letter to the Romans that has now been canonized in the holy scriptures and we are drawing from this epistle the food and nectar of god so that we can grow and understand him better and to understand him, since this is a Bible class and not necessarily a service, allow me a moment while I describe more clearly what the Roman Empire was like in the days of the first century church the Roman Empire It was huge, it was absolutely huge, it was taking over lands through colonization, it was taking over cultures and languages ​​and people from various territories the battle has always been for land a kingdom is determined by its dominance it is always about the land God says I have given you the land to possess so whether you are talking about the Egyptians in the old testament or whether we are talking about the Amalekites, they are always fighting for the land, they are fighting for the territory and the Romans They had become so adept at taking over territory that multiculturalism had become omnipresent in Rome, so everyone who lived in Rome was not necessarily Roman, there were others. people other ethnicities other groups other sects of people other groups of people who were all raised under the Roman empire and the philosophy of the Roman empire at the time Paul writes this epistle is let's acquire new territories new people new lands and let's all bring them under one empire, but we will indulge their religious belief system, so whatever belief system you had you could continue under the umbrella of the Roman empire, when religion and politics lie in bed together, strange babies are always born and what you see is a political regime that got into the bed and business of religion and allowed its political agenda to influence the religious life of the entire empire until there was such diversity that it was total confusion, there were people who were worshiping in the temple of Jupiter .

They were worshiping the temple of the predatory Jews There were people who were worshiping in the temple of Diana There were people who were worshiping under all these different veils and these different contexts There were people who practiced ancient religions ancestral religions There were people who were practicing libations so that the person In a house you may be praying to one god and the person next to you is praying to another god and the person next to you is praying to another god, so when we talk about Jew or Gentile we discard all these different religions. in a bag and called them Gentiles, but the Gentiles did not have a single belief system, they had many diverse cultists, some of them were witchcraft, some of them offered blood sacrifices, some of them poured libations on the ground, some of them were uh. uh libations are about worshiping mother earth, there were all these different ideas under the regime and the only thing Rome cared about was paying your taxes and growing the country and getting bigger and bigger, so when start talking about entering In Rome you were arriving in a cosmopolitan area and it is difficult to teach this type of teaching in the United States because, although we have diversity and although we have cosmopolitan cities, we do not have diversity of languages ​​like when you go to Europe and you are passing by someone who speaks Italian and someone who is at the other table speaking French and someone else speaks Russian and German we don't live in an environment where we are inundated with other cultures and other ideas, but Rome is at the epicenter of everything that matters everything what is happening in europe is leaving rome for paul to come to rome and write a letter to rome and call to put all these gentile people that you are putting in a bag cults witchcraft greek astrologers mythology astronomers witches everything was in a bag which we call Gentiles because Gentiles simply means anything non-Jewish that does not have the Jewish covenant, so for God there were only two types of people: a covenant and a non-covenant covenant people. people are called Jews, non-covenant people are called Gentiles, it was irrelevant that they were diverse because they were all wrong anyway and the Jews had a sense of orthodoxy and history with the ideologies of Jehovah that were They went back centuries and centuries. and we go back to Abraham that they served the living and true god and they knew it and they understood it and they had heritage and they had religious integrity and every time they deviated from that integrity they were punished again in their position until they had so much history with god that they knew who they were and When you're dealing with people who are sure of themselves, it's hard to be sure of yourself and not be arrogant, especially when you're around people whose ideas you don't respect, so on the Jewish side there was a religious arrogance and a supremacy that said that even when they embraced Jesus Christ they had to decide whether your salvation was legitimate or not because they had had the greatest history with God the Father and They felt that we do not accept them as truly Christians even though they believe in Jesus and we are a particular sect of Jews who believe that Jesus is the messiah because the vast majority did not believe it and still do not believe it today, but they were.

The Messianic Jews, as we call them today, believed in Jesus, but they were not willing to authenticate the salvation of these people who had come from all these fetishes, cults, ideologies, libations, ceremonies, rituals and routines, and Peter had been around. preaching the gospel and the Gentiles had received the holy spirit the Bible says in the book of acts while Peter was still speaking these words the holy spirit fell on all those who heard the word and those who came with Peter were amazed because it fell on the Gentiles. the gift of the holy spirit was poured out on them before they heard them speak in tongues, if it had not been for the holy spirit speaking from them they would never have recognized them in the first place, but peter could not deny that they had had an encounter with god then peter says in the eyes he says can any man forbid these men the water they have the holy spirit just as we in other words god without their permission began to fill these pagans with the holy spirit?

Look, you can form your committees, you can form your boards, you can have your ideas but you cannot prevent God from blessing whoever he wants to bless. I don't care how he votes. I don't care how you choose it. I don't care how you prove it when God is ready. to bless someone I don't care if she was a stripper a prostitute a saucer a healer if god is preparing to deliver them you can't stop them from being delivered because while peter was preaching without him laying his hands on them they were being filled with the holy spirit great god almighty god doesn't need your permission to bless whoever he wants to bless you don't have to like it you can talk about it but you can't stop it now that paul is coming put this in order and this is what's so funny about it most of you know that the apostle paul originally did not believe in christ himself, in fact he was a christian murderer, he was the saddam hussein of the early church until he met jesus on the road to damascus and the lord knocked him down from his beast until then paul was the jew most arrogant you have ever seen in your life he was from the tribe of Benjamin he was a Pharisee he was zealous for the law and he planned to corner the Christians and kill them he thought he was doing God's service but while he was on his mission to kill the Christians he became one now you have to listen to me we used to sing a song today I'm one of them you used to laugh and make fun of them, but now I'm one of them, today the conversion is so powerful, be careful who you laugh at because this is contagious, you fool around, You came here to make fun, but if you stay here long enough, be careful. because the holy spirit could knock you off your seat to the ground and fill you with the holy spirit yes, yes, yes, yes, it's that real and paul, who was leading a group of men in damascus, ended up being taken away because he saw a great light that left him blind he temporarily lost his sight in order to get his vision sometimes god has to close one thing to open another so now paul has the job of not only winning Jews that he understands and has history and has similarity and connectivity with and can understand His arrogance and knows how to speak his language God as a way to humiliate him has been done by the apostle of the Gentiles and the distinction between the Jews and the Gentiles was so wide that no one worth his salt.

A Jew would even eat with a Gentile, he would break the plate if you ate it and now God sends the Christian murderer to preach to the Gentiles, so when Paul comes to Rome, he will come to minister in the midst of all this chaotic religious ideology and he is. sent on a mission because paul is diverse enough to do the job spoke several different languages ​​had been educated at the feet of gamil had been instructed in the word of the law had walked among the pharisees and scribes understood several cultures spoke enough languages like so god could use him in a way that he couldn't use peter because god can only use you at the level of your exposure are you following what i'm saying?

Now I'm going somewhere with this, but I want you to understand that Paul now comes to Rome because the Jews as a whole reject Christianity, okay, and it's no big deal, it's a small movement and one group of Jews has not rejected to Jesus, but they are arguing with the Gentiles. those who have accepted jesus and the christian message is growing stronger among the gentiles than among the jews and the disciples are trying to figure out how to grow the church when their brothers reject jesus and the pagans accept them and now they are having to deal with hedonistic problems like Corinth and its fornication and its incest and its idolatry.

They have people speaking in tongues and sleeping with the mother and they have to clean them because you know you are not saved and get clean immediately you have to be cleansed you have to learn you have to be trained you have to be developed and the early church had its hands full and Jesus had gone and had left it in the hands of men to establish the first Thechurch is in this atmosphere.that paul writes the book of romans and i hope to pique your curiosity enough to make you go back and read the book of romans again because if you do that and go through the book of romans from chapter to chapter, you will notice how it wavers. . talking to the pagans first and saying wow you can't see god in nature, you are just as guilty of rejecting him because you can't recognize the invisible god through the visible, you should have looked at creation and recognized the creator in the chapter one and god gave you to a reprobate mind and to satisfy the desires of your flesh men persecuting men women persecuting men he talks about it in the first chapter he is talking to the Gentiles you wouldn't have to teach this to a Jew in In the second chapter, he now goes on to talk to the Jews because they get away with it in the first chapter, but in the second chapter he begins to identify his own arrogance and self-righteousness and begins to deal with them, ultimately trying to bring them down. return. understanding that when it comes to being a Christian you have to go through the same door as the Gentiles you cannot have seniority you have to go through faith not through the feast of weeks not through the feast of unleavened bread not through the day of Pentecost no for the holy weeks not for the ceremonies to which you are accustomed not for your tabernacles your tents in the desert not for your temple not for solomon not for david all that was just a shadow of which christ is a reality and you have to enter through faith through the same door you are with me now we are going to jump to romans 4 verse 1 to 21 and with all this in mind we are going to understand and understand what paul says what then we will say that abraham our ancestor according to the flesh discovered in this matter if in In reality Abraham was justified by works he had something to boast about but not before God why the scriptures say that Abraham believed God and it was credited as justice now to the one who works the salary is not credited but as a gift but as an obligation then if I work for it and you pay me at the end of the week you cannot say that it is a gift that is an obligation but if I obtained it for free without work that is a gift however for those who do not work but trust in God who justifies the wicked their faith It is credited as righteousness your what is credited as righteousness your faith is credited as correct because they are not right but it will count as righteousness because faith is the trade of the spiritual world yes, yes, yes, yes, if you take out a dollar bill , it's not a sandwich, but you'll buy one, it says it's good to trade for goods. and services, so it is a product through which we can buy various things, now they got bitcoins, now they have all kinds of ways to pay for it, they got credit cards, all that, so we went from having to use gold or before exchanging with wheat and then bitcoins and various forms are all commodities means of exchange well in the spirit faith is a medium of exchange abraham was not righteous but because he believed in god it was counted as righteousness god said you don't have righteousness but you do You have faith I will take it and give you a righteousness that you did not earn because I am accepting faith as a means of exchange glory to God you are with me said David says the same thing when he speaks of the blessedness of him to whom God attributes righteousness without works blessed are those whose transgressions are forgiven whose sins are covered blessed is he who sinned the lord will never count count count we keep saying this word count we will never count against them that is we should shout that blessed are the people whose sin God will not take into account is this beatitude only for the circumcised or also for the uncircumcised look at paul he is arguing like a lawyer he is using the people they respect to convince them of the people who doubt he mentions abraham for a reason abraham is the father of faith he mentions david for a reason he is salinas where jesus came from and he says that he uses his words to persuade those who know his words to accept those who would not know his words is this beatitude only for the circumcised or also for the uncircumcised he argues we have been saying that the faith of abraham was credited as righteousness under what circumstances was it credited now now he's delving into the details he says when abraham was declared righteous under what circumstances was it declared written was it after he was circumcised or before and then he says uh-oh it wasn't after he was circumcised that he was declared righteous but before oh god and received circumcision as a sign is a seal of the righteousness that he had by faith while he was still uncircumcised he is arguing like a lawyer he is going down into detail what he knew and when he knew it how many times have you heard that what did you know and when did you know it?

He said what did he know and when did he know it? When was he declared righteous? Was it after he was circumcised or before? For if he was declared righteous after being circumcised then you can alienate the Gentiles, but if he received righteousness while he was still uncircumcised, then how can you deny them when your father let me surprise you? The father of the Jews was a Gentile. See, God has a way of sewing this up and Abram was a Gentile from Mesopotamia from the land, an idolater and God said get out of your own people and separate and I will make you a great nation so God called Abraham who was not what he wanted it to be and it became that through the pact with god I don't care what you were I I don't care where you were I don't care what you were doing I don't care where you've been I don't care what you've been through I don't care what your neighbors call you I don't care No matter what your friends call you when God is getting ready to start something new in your life, don't let anyone drag you back to what they heard, saw or felt about you, they might have evidence , they may have images, but you can be gentle. moment and a Jew the next because god is looking at faith as the evidence of what I hope for the substance of things that are not seen in this good and then he is the father of all those who believe oh now they say that abraham is the father of all the circumcised paul says no because abraham made a covenant while he was uncircumcised then he is the father of all those who believe but have not been circumcised so that they can be credited with righteousness if in other words if you believe that abraham is righteous then You can't exclude them as unjust and say you are Abraham's seed because the people you are rejecting are more like Abraham than you, so circumcision, which is a work of the flesh, comes after the covenant that is. the sign of the covenant but it is not the covenant it is evidence of the covenant but god gave the covenant to a man who had done nothing to earn it because if he had done something to earn it then it would have been wages and it would have been worse, come on, someone, you are with me?

You have this Bible class, it's a Bible class and you have to understand the rudiments of your faith, so God has allowed this uncircumcised idolater from Mesopotamia to be the father of many nations and he is the progenitor of which the Jewish faith is established , but God begins the Jewish nation from uncircumcised Gentile loins because God accepted Abraham's faith as sufficient to count him righteous on credit. Oh, everyone is getting this. I like to teach an adult. -up the church, look, that's why I don't like a church that just shouts and I don't think I like it, I like shouting and I like dancing, but I want to pastor intelligent people who are thinking people so that we can be justified by faith . not circumcision, so you can't lock these people up and say I won't accept them legitimately because they are uncircumcised because by the way, God has filled them with the holy spirit while they were uncircumcised, it's too late for you to reject them because the spirit holy is a seal on a saved life even though the holy spirit has sealed and saved them these gentile believers have to live in the controversy of the arrogance of the messianic Jews who did not want to accept them now this is part of what I want you to take away about this tonight everyone is not going to believe in you I don't care what you do everyone is not going to believe in you they are not going to believe in you for some reason your dress is too short you cut your hair, you wear earrings, you worship in the day wrong, you go to the wrong church, you don't use the same type of communion with you, they will have some kind of reason to try to delegitimize your faith, but believe.

It matters and God says you are justified by faith, not by works, so that no man can boast. Oh, am I helping anyone here? So if the enemy is going to come after something, he will come after your faith and he wants to break your faith. He doesn't care if you sing, he doesn't care about your preaching, he doesn't care about building your church, he doesn't care if you make an offering, he cares if you believe because believing is the good of commerce, in the spirit you give, your faith, God gives you his justice. I take a 10 bill I can't eat the 10 bill but I can buy a sandwich with the 10 bill I can't travel with the 10 bill but I can pay a toll with a 10 bill it's a medium of exchange so whatever you want it when you pray you think you have received it oh everyone doesn't listen to what I'm saying they think they have received it not that they will receive it not that they can receive it not that they can receive it I believe that you have received it and you will have it oh someone should you yell at me someone should yell at me now let's go back let's back up for a minute let's go back I went and grabbed my bible my real bible my messed up bible I marked a torn page in the Bible and I wanted to go back and see if Paul knew what he was talking about so I went back to Genesis chapter 17 for a minute and when abraham 17 verse 1 and when abram abram not yet abraham and when abram was 90 years old and nine the lord appeared to abram and said to him I am the almighty god walk before me and be perfect and I will make my covenant between me I will make my covenant between me and you and I will multiply you greatly and Abraham fell on his face and God spoke to him saying ask for me behold my covenant is with you and you will be a father and you will be a father of many nations oh oh oh that's good wait a minute wait a minute I'm looking down I'm sweating but I have to work I'm working I'm working I'm working I'm working I'm working I'm working I'm working I'm working work because I have I have to check on Paul and see if he's right, come down to the verse 11 and you will circumcise the flesh of your body.

What you mean is that you made a covenant with him in the first part of chapter 17 and you didn't even mention circumcision until verse 11, so Abraham had a conversation. with god enter into a covenant with god and not even they have even discussed circumcision the covenant precedes circumcision that's why god says that no flesh can boast in my eyes you can't run with your chest out and say I did it because you are circumcised because I did it through my favor and you keep wondering why God bless you what good he found was nothing good what he found in you in fact there is nothing good in you it is not because of your goodness that God bless you it is because of goodness from god that he blesses you and you don't deserve it you deserve to go to hell but god god counted you with justice that's why hell hates you because it thought for sure that it had you and just when the devil was coming to kill you you were wrong and you believed that god and god snatched you snatched you from darkness into this wonderful life by grace you are saved someone shout a minute about the grace of god what paul wants the early church to understand is that christianity is not just an evolution of judaism it's something new it's something again go to Ephesians with me for a minute go to the face you are doing well tonight you are all doing well you are all going to work with me tonight you are going to work with me, come on, work with me, work with me, come on, yeah, will go to Ephesians, I think I need two Ephesians, two, yes, uh, you have it on the screen, since for you you were dead in your transgressions and sins, uh. -Hey, can you move on, yes, yes, in what you used to live when you followed the ways of the world and the ruler of the kingdom of the air who is satan, the spirit that is now at work and those who are disobedient, all of us too? all of us too all of us too all of us too all of us too all of us too all of us also live among them at the same time do not forget to gratify the cravings of our flesh and follow its desires and thoughts like rest we were by nature deserving of wrath but but god who is rich in mercy in him who loved us gave us life with christ even when we were dead in transgressions it is by grace that you have been saved and god raised us up with christ and seated us with him in the heavenly places in christ jesus so that in the centuries to come may show the incomparable riches of his grace expressed in his kindness to us in Christ Jesus for it is by grace that you have been saved through faith this is not of yourselves it is the gift of God not by works so that no one can but because we are the work of God created in Christ Jesus to do good works with God prepared in advance for us to do, therefore remember that first you who are Gentiles by birth and are called uncircumcised by those who are called circumcision which is done in the body by human hands remember that at that time you were separated from Christ, excluded from citizens in Israel and foreignersto the covenant of promise without hope and without god in the world but now in Christ Jesus you who were once far away have been brought closer by the blood of Christ wait a minute I have been brought closer by the blood of Christ oh my God they have been brought closer by the blood of circumcision I have been brought closer by the blood of Christ Christ is my circumcision because he himself is our peace who has made two groups one that you do not hear See?

Did you realize how it felt to have resurrected us together? You have raised us up and made us sit in heavenly places. You have to wonder who we are. We are not just Gentiles because the Bible says he took them both and made them one. the two the two are the Jew and the Gentile have joined together and the two have become one and now that is us so if it is us we cannot be them we cannot be them and be us because the two have become a verse 14 because he himself is our peace, who has made the two groups one and has destroyed the barrier, the dividing wall of enmity, nullifying in his flesh the law with its commandments and regulations, his purpose was to create in himself a new humanity . of the two thus making peace and in one body reconciling them both with God through the cross with which he put to death their enmities oh god this is so beautiful he came and preached peace to you who were far away and peace to those of us who were near because through him we both have access to the spirit to the father by one spirit if you understand that clap your hands let me know that I am teaching so that the church is neither this nor that it is something new and what Paul is doing is trying to heal the tribalisms and ritualisms and hatred and malice in the church saying that God has made us one, both the Jews and all these different versions of the Gentiles have become one through the cross, that through the cross we have become in one, okay, I'll take you a little further and then we're almost there in Rome.

Paul is teaching them this truth that causes Christianity to spread like fire because it opens the doors of the church to all these people who had other deities to run through the cross and be drawn close who once were not a people are now They have become a people by grace, they are quickly saved, eventually the Roman Catholic church is formed around them, which today is in Rome and eventually a knight named Martin Luther begins to read the book of Romans and discovers justification by faith. which contradicted the idea that it had to be justified by a priest and nailed to the door of the church the 96 theses that were protests against the traditional Catholicism of that time and outside of that protest the Protestant Protestant the Protestant church evolved into protests against the treatment that was seen receiving people in the isolation of the original catholicism protestant protest martin luther not king but the original martin luther read the book of romans and the more he studied romans the more he knew that the church could not be exclusive, it had to be inclusive in this world we live in with all the doctrines and all the ideas and all the theology and all the Wiccans and all the black Hebrews and all fighting to justify themselves through two bloods during these two weeks and days, if you would study the book of Romans and you knew what the church is, you would understand that I am as connected to Abraham as any Jew in the world that I have the same lineage because Abraham was not always the father of Jews he was a Gentile who entered into a covenant and he represents me as much as he represents you to you and I can be at peace with all men because by grace you see but because we have a church that has been raised up of praise and they have no teaching, anyone can come and take you away because you don't know what you believe and what you believe matters.

I'll say it again. What you believe matters. What you believe defines who you are. There is no black. church and there is no white church or baptist church or methodist church or amy church and there is no first assembly and church of god and church of god in christ there is only one church that has been washed in the blood of the lamb because there is but one lord and one faith and one baptism and one god who is above all of you and in all of you and through all of you and the only way to access him god is by faith by faith abel offered himself above excellent sacrifice and pain for the faith Eden walked with God and it was not by faith nor being warned by God of things that were not yet seen she built the house for the salvation of her family through faith Sarah also received the strength to conceive seed which was transmitted to her as a man because judged faithful to god who had promised by faith stand I'm going to stop there that's enough for tonight everyone who was blessed by the word clap your hands i want to challenge you with this little two part series was it okay if the romans started a revolution that will release? that freed millions of people if the romans started a revolution that caused christianity to catch fire and spread around the world maybe you should read the book of romans so you can do it when the enemy tries to make you feel guilty and says you haven't been good enough and you haven't been good enough and you haven't prayed enough and you haven't fasted enough and you haven't done this enough and you dress enough and your hair isn't straight enough and your eyes aren't straight enough blue and your teeth are not white enough you can tell him by grace I am saved it is a gift from God and with all due respect to the singers we have we should It is not necessary to have people who can sing that good for you to worship.

What should make you worship is the gift that God gave you in salvation when he sanctified you. They shouldn't have to sweat for you to praise God. when you recognize that this is my story this is my song praising my savior all day long lord when you understand that I am an heir of salvation God's purchase I was born of his spirit and washed is this is my story no I don't know what kind of story you have , but this is my story. I want you to understand it because I see a weakening in the teaching of the Christian faith.

We make more noise but we have less truth. We hit tamarind trees and shout, but when the enemy comes against you he is going to test what you know about god and your foundation has to be solid so that you can be like a tree planted by the rivers of water oh blessed his high name glory to god anyone who has the holy spirit give him some praise here right now I said anyone has the holy spirit I better stop anyone in the holy spirit give him some praise anyone has been delivered give your god some glory tonight give him some of praise give him some praise give him some praise, give him some praise, praise him until he gets understanding, praised until he gets a revelation, praised until he gets a revival in his spirit, you were dead in sin and God gave you life by grace, I grew up in a church all the time the church was always selling dinners and selling cakes and cupcakes in the lobbies and having pew meetings and all that kind of stuff and lines of prophecy, but what you're investing in is not the pews, it should be true because know the truth and the truth will set you free with everyone investing in lies and division and division you should invest in unity we he has raised us together to sit in heavenly places in christ jesus do you think I'm sitting in the house of the father I am not sitting in the house of the father I am sitting in heavenly places in Christ Jesus and my life is here in Christ with God and whether I live or die there will be no difference because the most you can do is kill my condition but you cannot kill my position because my life plus my life is hidden in christ with god stop telling people your mom died your mom didn't die she just moved because we know if this earthly house or tabernacle should be dissolved we have another eternal building in the heavens scream yes some joyful morning when this life is over I will fly I will die hallelujah oh glory we have to be sanctified again we have to return to the power of the holy spirit we have to return to the annoying king of God I'm going to close this service I'm going to ask you to sow a seed in this moment I'm not going to force you and I'm just asking you to sow a seed right now I want you to do it sow in truth listen to this I want you to sow in revelation knowledge because I want the spirit of revelation to come upon you until you can preach this out of your head until you can teach it in your sleep I want the unwritten word of god to remain on earth because now hell has new demons loose coming against us like we have never been tested before and I want you to sow in truth, not in benches nor in buildings, nor in suits, nor in clothing, but in the truth, because Jesus said that you will know the truth and the truth will set you free, not the tricks, nor the libations, nor the parties, nor the ceremonies, you will know the truth and the truth will set you free, whoever is here if you want your son to be free, expose them to the truth if you want your daughter to be free. expelling them to the truth is not a religious dogma what sets people free is knowing who god is and what he is capable of doing and step aside and let someone else be saved apart from you by grace you are saved, he raised us together and made us sit in heavenly places, so I sat in Romans tonight, I visited Genesis tonight, I closed Ephesus tonight and it all teaches one truth and if you go into it and dare to study, you will not get this. yelling you're going to get this firmly to show yourself approving the reason I'm frantic is because the old war horses are leaving the old war horses are passing from the scene and we have to make sure hallelujah that something real continues to stand up and declare who is jesus hallelujah them running around trying to find the bride of jesus now get out of my sight we need someone to declare who jesus is his wife was the church we are the bride of christ you have to know your word you have to know what you believe in your position and it's not about arguing with people, it's not about fighting against people, it's about being firmly planted because the Bible says that if your feet are firmly planted in the house of the Lord, you will flourish in the courts of our god then god says if you remember to be planted in the house of god i will make you flourish outside the house in the courts you have been praying for you to flourish but you have not been planted if you were planted and be stable and start being in and out and sometimes here and sometimes not if you are planted in the house of god in the truth of god the word of god I am not talking about the building so god said I will make you flourish prosperity is a byproduct it is not the goal it is a byproduct seek he fasts the kingdom of god in his righteousness and all these things must be added to you so if you want all these things to be added to you seek first the kingdom invest in the truth you have a seed you have a seizure online you have to see so towards the truth I want the spirit of revelation and knowledge fall upon you I want it to fall upon you so that you can teach whether you are called a teacher or not I want it to fall upon your ministry I want it to fall upon you if you do nothing but teach your children I want you to know the truth so well that you will not you have to send them to no one to be taught by those who brought you I want the spirit of revelation to fall upon you until you fall in love with your bible not the prison preacher because your preacher is going to die but your bible will still be here I want I want to direct you back to god the father of lights in whom there is no oh I have to leave it I feel I can stop it in whom there is no verbality or shadow apparently we have people who love the church but do not know god pass the seed to the left I pray for each seed that is planted online in the building anywhere, anyone who is interested in going deeper into the word, who is willing to go deeper into the revelation, who is willing to wrestle with the Scriptures, so that Christ can dwell in their hearts for faith that they would begin to walk in the word and speak in the word and think in the word and live in the word I pray that the people who sow tonight will be so in the word that they feel happy with the word that they begin to read and laugh at the revelation falling on them until you start revealing secrets to them and they deepen their relationship with you.

All these people that are trying to touch the preacher. I am praying that they can touch you and that the power of God will outshine them in such a supernatural way. that way they would appreciate men but they would only honor God because yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory amen amen amen serve the people who gave quickly god bless you for your seed god bless you for tuning in tonight god bless you for your study bible class should not end when the lights go out this should provoke you to study anyone who is hungry anyone who is hungry for god I challenge you to study the book of romans study the book of romans it is not the only book but since I'm teaching in Romans, it will be easier for you to see the touch points of Romans because I spent two weeks teaching it and I went back to YouTube, stopped, read your Bible and started again, I see you have, you're the only generation. in church history you can click a button and hear the message taught at the pace of your learning
