❓ What do these grades mean?
We do not issue this rating to attack the speaker, but to protect the listener. This church's overall teaching trend consistently deviates from sound doctrine. As per Romans 16:17, we identify these patterns so believers can guard their hearts.
🧐 Overview
Sermon Summary: This sermon presents a vision of Christianity focused on accessing a special spiritual 'realm' to unlock personal power, healing, and wealth. However, it dangerously substitutes the biblical Gospel of grace through faith in Christ with a man-centered pursuit of status and subjective experience, ultimately promoting the 'Word of Faith' or 'Prosperity Gospel' heresy.
Big Idea: Listen to the Spirit of God and be aware of the spiritual realm beyond the physical world. [00:41:09 ▶️ 📄]
Pastoral Analysis: The sermon is structured around a Gnostic-like framework distinguishing between the physical 'room' and a spiritual 'realm.' This extra-biblical grid is used to elevate subjective experience and 'direct downloads' of revelation above the plain teaching of Scripture. This faulty system serves as a vehicle to introduce and defend explicit Word of Faith and Prosperity Gospel heresies, including the use of positive confession and the promise of material wealth as a covenant right. The use of Scripture is pretextual, the message is fundamentally man-centered, and the Gospel of Christ's substitutionary atonement is functionally replaced by a gospel of the believer's own declared power.
Biblical Parallel(Archetype): Thyatira — The sermon actively promotes a seductive, alternative gospel of prosperity and subjective power, mirroring the corrupting 'Jezebel' teaching tolerated in Thyatira.
🧭 Biblical Alignment Dashboard
Overall Verdict: Fundamentally in Error
| Category | Status | Reasoning |
|---|---|---|
| Soteriology | ❌ FAIL | The Gospel is obscured and replaced with a man-centered message of self-actualization and power. The identity of the believer is defined by declared status ('wealthiest,' 'holiest') rather than by grace through faith in Christ's finished work alone. |
| Bibliology | ❌ FAIL | Scripture is not the ultimate authority in practice; it is subordinated to the pastor's extra-biblical 'room vs. realm' framework and the believer's subjective 'revelation from the realm,' which undermines the sufficiency of Scripture. |
| Hermeneutic | ❌ FAIL | The sermon imposes a Gnostic-like, dualistic framework onto Scripture and uses proof-texting (e.g., Deut. 8:18) stripped of its redemptive-historical context to support Prosperity Theology. |
| Theology Proper | ⚠️ WEAK | While not explicitly denying God's attributes, the sermon functionally reduces God to a power source for the believer's personal fulfillment and kingdom advancement, rather than the object of worship for His own glory. |
| Sacramentology | ⚪ N/A | No sacraments (Communion or Baptism) were observed in the provided transcript. |

🧱 Sermon Outline
- Introduction: The 'Room' vs. The 'Realm' [00:43:05 ▶️ 📄] : The pastor introduces an interpretive grid distinguishing between hearing things in the physical 'room' and receiving revelation from the spiritual 'realm.'
- Point 1: Peter's 'Realm' Revelation [00:48:50 ▶️ 📄] : Using Matthew 16, the pastor reinterprets Peter's confession of Christ not as a work of simple faith, but as a 'direct download of revelation from the realm,' establishing this as the superior form of Christian experience.
- Point 2: The Church as a 'Realm' Entity [01:02:21 ▶️ 📄] : The sermon defines the true church not by doctrine or practice, but by its operation in the 'realm.' This leads to a denigration of churches that are merely 'roomy gatherings.'
- Point 3: Declarations of Power and Prosperity [01:22:39 ▶️ 📄] : The pastor leads the congregation in a series of 'Word of Faith' style declarations, claiming that the church is the 'holiest,' 'wealthiest,' and 'most brilliant' entity on earth, explicitly defending prosperity theology.
- Conclusion: The Altar and Peculiar Persecution [01:34:26 ▶️ 📄] : The sermon concludes by linking the church's 'peculiar' practices (those tied to the 'realm') to persecution, framing doctrinal critique as an attack on faithfulness.
🗝️ Key Topics & Themes
- Hearing God's Word [00:43:05 ▶️ 📄] : The pastor discusses the importance of listening to God's word, emphasizing spiritual discernment.
- Spiritual awakening and revelation [00:46:39 ▶️ 📄] : The pastor discusses the concept of being 'quickened' by God, moving beyond mere information to spiritual revelation.
- The use of the word 'church' in the Bible [00:48:50 ▶️ 📄] : The pastor explains that Jesus is the first to use the term 'church' in the Bible and provides context for its usage.
- Praising God in difficult environments [00:51:26 ▶️ 📄] : The pastor emphasizes the importance of praising God even in challenging and vile environments.
- Praise and Worship [00:52:10 ▶️ 📄] : The pastor emphasizes the importance of praising God in community.

Pastoral Passion | Energy and Engagement
The speaker delivers the sermon with noticeable passion and energy, holding the attention of the audience throughout a very long message.
⚠️ Theological Concerns
🔴 Prosperity Gospel / Word of Faith
Root Cause: Prosperity Gospel: A modern heresy that teaches the Atonement of Christ guarantees believers physical health and financial wealth in this life. It reduces God to a means to a worldly end and corrupts the biblical message of salvation from sin.
"you're one of them prosperity people yeah when your poverty gets bad enough you're gonna want a prosperity person... he is giving you the power... to get wealth in order to confirm his covenant" [01:25:32 ▶️ 📄]
Correction: The Bible teaches that the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil (1 Timothy 6:10) and warns believers not to store up treasures on earth (Matthew 6:19). The Gospel promises persecution and suffering for the faithful in this life, with our true, imperishable inheritance reserved in heaven, not guaranteed on earth.
🔴 Gnostic Dualism ('Room vs. Realm')
Root Cause: Neo-Montanism / Gnosticism: An error that claims new, continuing, and direct revelation from God that stands alongside or supersedes the authority of the Bible. It often leads to spiritual elitism and a devaluing of the written Word.
"But you got a direct download of revelation from the realm. Flesh and blood didn't tell you." [01:01:38 ▶️ 📄]
Correction: The Bible warns against any teaching that goes beyond what is written (1 Corinthians 4:6) and declares that Scripture itself is sufficient to make the man of God complete and equipped for every good work (2 Timothy 3:16-17). Our faith rests on the public, apostolic testimony recorded in Scripture, not on private revelations.
🔴 Anthropocentric Gospel (Narcigesis)
Root Cause: Anthropocentric Hermeneutic (Idolatry of Self): An approach to Scripture that reads man as the central character and hero of the biblical narrative. It interprets the Bible's promises and commands primarily through the lens of human potential and self-fulfillment, rather than God's glory.
"we are the holiest thing in this unholy world we are the redeemed of the lord... we are the wealthiest people on this impoverished planet... we are the most oh no i know you've gone too far we the most brilliant people" [01:25:04 ▶️ 📄]
Correction: Scripture teaches that all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God (Romans 3:23) and that any righteousness we have is an alien righteousness from Christ, received by faith (Philippians 3:9). Our purpose is not to celebrate ourselves, but to glorify God and enjoy Him forever.
📝 Other Corrections & Notes
- Jesus used the phrase 'he who has an ear, let him hear' eight times in Matthew, Mark, and Luke combined. [00:43:32 ▶️ 📄] → Correction: The phrase appears approximately seven times in the Gospels (e.g., Matt 11:15, 13:9; Mark 4:9, 4:23; Luke 8:8, 14:35), not eight. It also appears seven times in Revelation. (Matthew, Mark, Luke, Revelation)
- The pulpit is a place for casual profanity. [00:41:28 ▶️ 📄] → Correction: The pulpit requires gravity and reverence in language. The use of a profane expletive ('fucking') shatters the sacred trust of the office and dishonors the holy message being proclaimed (Ephesians 4:29). (Ephesians 4:29)

[00:06:28] Thank you for the people of your house. Thank you for the presence of the Lord moving in the people of the house. Now let me go ahead and start something here. I got notes from folks saying I'm not feeling well. I'm talking about faithful folks who love God and serve the Lord always in this, but I'm not feeling well today and I won't be there. I got mothers saying my children are not well so I won't be there. But I'm looking in this space right now and I'm declaring something and that is
[00:07:05] we say this this is a fasting house that doesn't mean you have ever fasted but because so many
[00:07:13] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_01]
[00:07:13] people in this house fast if you come here you may not fast but you're a part of a fasting people this is a place that is given 3.4 i'm always saying this because it's testimony
[00:07:28] it shouldn't happen in a congregation of 400 people but in a congregation of 400 people you've given 3.4 million dollars to israel you've ever given a penny you might not even like israel but you have a right to know that this is a people who believe in the promises of god
[00:07:57] covenantly to israel and i know there's a a degrading force in theology known as or ecclesiology known as a replacement theology that says hey God doesn't speak to Israel anymore he's not engaging that people anymore that's old covenant and old testament but now they would say
[00:08:21] he speaks exclusively to his church now if that's the case if God said to Israel I am your everlasting God yet he changed his mind that how much should you really trust him if he's talking to the church
[00:08:40] and saying you are my everlasting covenant I changed my mind this is the people this is a Jew loving Israel loving not because they've done anything for me or for you but because God
[00:08:58] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_06]
[00:08:58] god god loves them god sent messiah through them he's returning to earth from that place
[00:09:09] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_01]
[00:09:09] so what i'm wanting us to know this morning is we're going to pray for those people who are a part of this house who can't be here this morning you may not be a real prayer force yet don't stay
[00:09:27] around here if you don't want to become a prayer force if you want to be wimpy go home if you want be wimpy find another church there's plenty of them that'll satisfy gratify your wimpiness that
[00:09:39] ain't one of the spiritual gifts of this people you are warriors not whamps when you loose a
[00:09:47] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_06]
[00:09:47] prayer it changes things in the heavens it changes things against hell my god i don't know what i
[00:09:57] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_01]
[00:09:57] would do if i couldn't go to the lord when i'm praying for my family my children my granddaughter this house the fact if i could know that we come against every gate of hell through a force of
[00:10:11] prayer and and fervence and fasting that makes a difference and changes things so you're going to make a sound for those who want to be here can't be here you're going to double your praise right now listen we'll talk about it some in a little bit not as much during we're
[00:10:29] going to really have two services we're going to do what we always do and then i'm going to stop the service for a moment so we can turn the social media off because i'm going to talk to you for a
[00:10:41] moment about a profound commissioning com this is an apostolic house we sinned we said the word apostle means sin we are sending persons from this place it's a glorious thing and we're going to do
[00:10:55] that but right now you're going to release not just a happy praise but a strategic sound that is going to lose an intentionality and purpose and declare by faith you are the lord of this house your glory met us here and we brought the glory in with us so get ready one
[00:11:19] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_06]
[00:11:19] One, trumpets, voices, two, full for two people.
[00:11:26] Let's get into our praises, oh, for a thousand tongues.
[00:16:29] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_01]
[00:16:29] People of truth, it isn't that we simply make a sound.
[00:16:33] We make a specific sound to a particular deity, capital D.
[00:16:41] God, capital G, among gods, little g.
[00:16:45] We come here in the name of Jesus.
[00:16:50] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_00]
[00:16:50] Would you say his name now?
[00:16:53] Think for a moment.
[00:16:56] Go deep in your own thoughts, your own spirit, man.
[00:17:00] What is it that you need most specifically from heaven today?
[00:17:07] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_01]
[00:17:07] Something in your body, health.
[00:17:11] Something in your mind against torment.
[00:17:14] Something in your spirit.
[00:17:15] You're bound and you want to be free.
[00:17:18] You don't want to be tied up in knots.
[00:17:19] So something in your family that needs deliverance.
[00:17:27] Whoa, I just feel that really strong right now.
[00:17:31] I'm not talking about just love in a family.
[00:17:33] I'm not talking about just forgiveness in a family, a peace in a family.
[00:17:37] That's great.
[00:17:37] I'm talking about deliverance in a family because here's what's happened.
[00:17:43] I'm just giving it to you.
[00:17:45] Here's what's happened.
[00:17:46] As persons join you, there's two persons and then you have a baby and you have others.
[00:17:52] But but but personalities. But this is beyond personalities. The enemy is determined to sabotage your generations to to thwart the generational conversation that God intends in your marriage, through your marriage, to your child, through your child, through your grandchildren.
[00:18:13] And there is a spirit that is even a spirit of witchcraft that has spoken words of containment, spoken words to bind, to tie up in knots that familiar spirits that you may only be 16 years old, but a familiar spirit who's familiar with your family, familiar with the weaknesses of your family.
[00:18:37] so it's hitting that familiar spirit of hell is hitting you right now in a way that happened to your mother your father your grandparents your uncle your cousin somebody you may have never met before so you've never heard of their bondage but that familiar spirit knows too well
[00:18:56] the keys that will unlock the doors of your soul to gain access for your bondage
[00:19:04] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_00]
[00:19:04] there is no name given under heaven whereby we must be saved and whereby we
[00:19:15] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_01]
[00:19:15] are delivered the Great Commission that we know that Jesus spoke go ye into all the world according to Matthew go ye into all the world preach and teach disciple that's true but in Mark's gospel he gives the rest of it Jesus
[00:19:33] says as they're going in my name you're cast out devils your salvation includes not just deliverance from a devil in your life you have the authority and the power through the blood to cast the devil
[00:19:49] out of somebody else how many demons have you cast out in your life how many folk was sick but got healed by your prayer life how many folk were in trouble but you knew how to lay
[00:20:04] hands upon them and in the name of jesus and faith in his word they got up from a sick bed with a testimony that somebody by the name of jesus helped set them free god intends for you
[00:20:20] to participate not in the stands not watching witnesses but you are a participant in somebody's healing a participant in somebody's deliverance how by the blood of the messiah through the name the name is the authority the blood is the power we're going to sing a song that says

[00:41:19] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_01]
[00:41:19] father knows there come those moments when you're sitting around the table
[00:41:23] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_00]
[00:41:23] before you eat maybe while you're eating you just pause every now and then and
[00:41:28] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_01]
[00:41:28] look at your people look at those over my fucking here my father right now he'd say to me he'd take the hands of the children raising the children we won't always be like this one of y'all get married and go go over here somewhere and this one will get
[00:41:44] married and go the lord will use you over here and use you and we'll always be together in some way but we we won't always be in fact he would say this we'll never be just like this again we can
[00:41:57] all sit at the table together sitting in the same chairs but it won't quite be the same same so i'm just taking my time a little bit for a moment looking at the folk next week you might come
[00:42:10] well i know some of you won't because i know where you're gonna be but but i can look and even if everybody came and sat in the same seat same chairs it would be a different kind of thing
[00:42:24] won't you just turn for a second look at the folk and say look look what god's done come on up in
[00:42:32] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_00]
[00:42:32] LOOK HOW GOOD GOD IS.
[00:42:35] LOOK HOW GOOD GOD IS TO US.
[00:42:38] YOU KNOW, THERE'S 15 TIMES WHEN JESUS WOULD BE TALKING TO SOMEBODY. HE WOULD BE TALKING TO A PERSON WHO WOULD BE TALKING TO A PEOPLE 15 TIMES AND HE WOULD END HIS COMMENTS WITH THIS ADMONITION. THIS
[00:43:05] IS WHY HE'S TELLING ME THIS MUCH. HE WHO HAS AN EAR,
[00:43:15] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_01]
[00:43:15] let him hear now you'll find it in the synoptics what that means is the first three gospels is matthew mark luke and john the synoptics of matthew mark and luke in those first three you
[00:43:32] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_00]
[00:43:32] find that phrase eight times three times in matthew three times in mark twice in luke don't find it in John at all, but he didn't get left out. Those were eight times. Then you get to the
[00:43:51] last book of your Bible, the book of the revelation of the Messiah. And there's seven times, seven
[00:44:00] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_01]
[00:44:00] times that Jesus is talking to folk. And he says, he says, he who has an ear, let him hear. This is
[00:44:09] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_00]
[00:44:09] different this time let him hear what the spirit do i got that one up in there no maybe i didn't put it in there i was wrong john wrote the book of revelation some 60 years after jesus ascended
[00:44:31] back to the bosom of the father so this is what is important this is i'm really having to matthew
[00:44:37] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_01]
[00:44:37] mark and luke have jesus talking and jesus when he's speaking to focus saying to them he who has ears now he's not talking about the auditory process he's not talking about your outer ear and inner ear uh capturing some vibration that another person's words might have
[00:44:57] listen no he's not talking about that at all he's saying there's another dimension there's another realm
[00:45:05] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_06]
[00:45:05] and if by chance the Holy Spirit is doing a work in your spirit right now so that you can't put your finger on it you couldn't really explain it to your family all you know is
[00:45:20] you're feeling something deep in your deepest space and Jesus is talking to that part he's saying those who can hear from a different place listen
[00:45:32] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_01]
[00:45:32] hear then in the last book of the bible the book of the revelation that's written by john some six decades after jesus is gone john hears jesus say it then but he says a little bit different this
[00:45:47] time he says he who has ears to hear let him hear what the spirit is saying to the churches he's talking about hearing from the realm this is where i'm going to say this a lot this morning
[00:46:06] there are persons i'll declare by faith it doesn't happen in this space today but there are persons in sanctuaries all over the nation this morning some will hear in the room they will hear the choir sing they will hear the preacher preach they will hear maybe the
[00:46:31] babies in the nursery they will hear room chatter but there are other people who've been quickened
[00:46:39] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_06]
[00:46:39] by God who are walking in a different reality who've moved beyond information of the room to revelation of the realm are we getting that across pretty good i need to be able to see what
[00:46:55] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_01]
[00:46:55] i'm talking about jesus is saying if you're quickened by the holy spirit in your soul
[00:47:03] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_06]
[00:47:03] if you're now having a conversation from your throne to his throne then listen
[00:47:11] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_01]
[00:47:11] everybody say to yourself right now i choose to hear the breathing word of god nothing is more important at this moment than what god is saying to my life i push aside every imagination every thought and word every memory every promise i make a decision within myself
[00:47:35] i hear nothing but thus saith the lord for my life in jesus name amen when john heard it he had changed life had changed jesus began to reveal to john 60 years after the ascension 60 years he
[00:48:05] starts showing john more than his resurrected self john saw that more than his ascended self john saw that but this time he's seeing the seated self that jesus is seated at the right hand of the
[00:48:19] majesty on high not simply to the one church now watch this watch this everybody say the church of the lord is one the church of the lord is one the church of the lord is one but to all peoples
[00:48:34] who call upon his name they are part of the church but what jesus is saying here is he didn't say hear what the spirit is saying to the church he's talking to congregations what changed what changed
[00:48:50] the church. Jesus is the first one to use the word church in your Bible. And oddly enough, he speaks that word church in the first gospel of Matthew. Now I say oddly enough, because it's captured in Matthew, but it's a conversation that Jesus is having with Peter. And so the book
[00:49:13] of Mark, Matthew, Mark is the smallest, the first gospel written. Mark is the memoirs of Peter and because Jesus has this conversation with Peter and he uses the word church you would think that Peter would tell Mark and Mark would be the first to tell us about the word church but
[00:49:34] regardless we read that Jesus took his disciples to one of the most depraved vile spaces in all Israel, Caesarea Philippi up north at the foot of Mount Hermon. Hell seeks the high places,
[00:49:53] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_06]
[00:49:53] corporate America, academia, medicine, whatever is high and lifted up. Hell wants to own it and rule in that space. So intentionally the Messiah went there and took his disciples with him to make
[00:50:14] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_01]
[00:50:14] a point and to settle a thing. It was Mount Hermon in that specific spot of Caesarea Philippi. It was known for blatant idolatry. It was known for pagan worship, even for bestiality, having sex with goats
[00:50:30] and every other form of degradation. And it was in that place. Everybody say that place. It was in that
[00:50:37] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_06]
[00:50:37] place that Jesus was listening for somebody body to say something greater than the idolaters were claiming. A different praise. He knew what
[00:50:50] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_01]
[00:50:50] a praise would sound like in Jerusalem. It's another thing to go at the gates of hell. This is a place at Caesarea Philippi and hear praises. Think right now, think for a moment of those
[00:51:02] places in your own life where you're forced to serve or study or live that's vile when you get there vile when you're there vile when you leave it's vile and dark and degrading and the pressure
[00:51:17] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_06]
[00:51:17] against your faith to shut down your testimony is great and heavy but jesus is listening
[00:51:26] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_01]
[00:51:26] particularly there who do the people say that i am who do the people say that i am in this place i'm gonna say it again i want you to think where you work some of you go through the gates of hell
[00:51:42] just to check in every morning and you stay there and when you leave not only are you physically exhausted but spiritually you've been through a thing and you wish there was some kind of spiritual shower
[00:51:52] you could stand in just to get that decadence out your head and off your but I'm telling you
[00:51:58] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_06]
[00:51:58] the breathing word of God find you a verse keep your Bible in the car so soon as you sit in that vehicle you're able to pull it open and say wash my mind oh Lord
[00:52:10] wash my spirit oh Lord I cast off of me and out of me every lying thing contrary to the breathing word of God, the yes and amen of heaven.
[00:52:25] He's listening, not for simply what we say in this house on Brownsboro, but be you well assured, if we can't praise God here, well, you don't know my personality.
[00:52:37] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_01]
[00:52:37] Well, what's your personality when you got to deal with the gates of hell?
[00:52:40] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_06]
[00:52:40] If I can't praise him when I'm with my sister, with my brothers, if I can't give him glory in this realm, high in the name of all this holy, am I going to go up there and face the devil eyeball to eyeball and raise my hands and declare the supremacy?
[00:52:58] You've got to be able to praise him right here, right now, where it's reinforced by the body.
[00:53:07] Somebody praise him.
[00:53:09] somebody go get your monday get your tuesday get your wednesday worship on some of you right now standing some of you right now clapping some of you right now worshiping god you're slapping a
[00:53:26] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_01]
[00:53:26] devil dead thursday morning who do the people say i am you've been around these folk you've heard their conversations they might have been immersed in every darkened form of degradation on this space even the place it was a cave called the gates of hell there you go baby
[00:53:59] the gates of hell and they believed that demons and spirits would hibernate in the winter and in the spring they would come back and fertilize and have give birth to and that's why at the gates of hell jesus gives this speech get jesus prophesied this word he said but peter
[00:54:19] I'm asking you now, who do the people even surrounded, some saturated by darkened spirits, when they see me and they hear me preach and they watch me work the works of God, who do they say I am?
[00:54:34] Peter says, I've been walking around spending time in various rooms.
[00:54:43] Where you work is a room.
[00:54:46] Where you study is a room.
[00:54:50] But God's called you.
[00:54:52] How do I say this?
[00:54:53] Please, Lord.
[00:54:56] And not sound uncaring.
[00:55:01] You and I have to be so discerning.
[00:55:04] I mean a hyperdrive discernment.
[00:55:06] That we don't get so caught up in room conversations.
[00:55:10] That we are oblivious to realm.
[00:55:16] Now hear me.
[00:55:17] I mean it when I say this.
[00:55:19] My heart goes out.
[00:55:20] I don't even know the woman's name.
[00:55:22] Who has this been kidnapped or whatever's happened?
[00:55:24] Who?
[00:55:24] Guthrie.
[00:55:25] The last name's Guthrie.
[00:55:26] Prior to three weeks ago, I never heard of the woman in my life.
[00:55:30] And that's not a criticism.
[00:55:31] She never heard of me.
[00:55:33] She didn't know anybody.
[00:55:34] As far as I know, she didn't know anybody here.
[00:55:37] The only, the main reason I suppose we knew her, know her, is because of a daughter that I don't have a clue who she is.
[00:55:45] supposedly she's a news anchor i don't even know what the network is the only reason her suzanne suzanna guthrie is the daughter savannah savannah we're tight i'm not criticizing her she's with a network news the only reason i i saw anything was back three or four weeks ago i think it was i
[00:56:06] heard read that she had a severe voice issue and as an announcer as a news person you have throat problems you gotta that's your that's a problem so i'm actually curious about that what did she
[00:56:17] do i think she had to have some surgery on her throat so her voice would return so she could get back to the desk and report the news it was kind of odd to me that is while we're that's
[00:56:26] amplified and we're hearing so much about her that when that situation is being dealt with all of a sudden an 80 some year old mother disappears now it has a commonality i'm 65 my mother was 80 it has a commonality in that so many baby boomers born between 46 and 64 so many
[00:56:49] of us in that born in that age we have aging parents so this story reaches to us and we think wait a minute my mama's that age and what would happen if my father was just and so it grabs us
[00:56:59] and that i got to tell you call me suspicious i don't know but i maybe i am but i just sat the other night thinking i don't really know the daughter never heard of the mother but in a 30
[00:57:10] minute news story 20 minutes was devoted to that with an embarrassing i i love cops i love law enforcement but an embarrassing situation that in two weeks we don't really know nothing or or you're not talking and the sheriff can't get along with the fbi and all this and what what's the next
[00:57:29] drama we can drop that'll keep you in the room so this was my question as i was watching and
[00:57:38] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_06]
[00:57:38] listening what's behind door number two what's going on in the spirit realm or politically or militarily internationally that they don't want me to know and they don't want me to ask no questions so they put somebody's mama on the camera and she's missing and she's got health
[00:58:02] issues and we can't find nothing but tonight's story isn't that we found her but that those who
[00:58:10] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_01]
[00:58:10] are looking can't get along okay what's the next next and see the they're moving now and the SWAT team is going and then the next night well they've released the people they were going to SWAT
[00:58:22] what I'm saying to the people in this house you ain't gonna be played again we was here in 2020 we ain't doing this again you ain't playing us again and while everybody else is chasing stuff
[00:58:39] in the room and I heard something in the room and I read on social media in the room and my cousin And, you know, he used to work with them and in the room.
[00:58:47] And before long, everything in the room is in my head.
[00:58:50] And I don't have the time or the mental space of my spirits too tied up in knots to hear what's coming from the realm.
[00:58:56] I declare by God, you are a realm people.
[00:58:59] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_06]
[00:58:59] I declare by God, he who has an ear, let him hear what the spirit of God is saying.
[00:59:15] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_01]
[00:59:15] You've been around the folk.
[00:59:17] Who do the people say that I am?
[00:59:18] peter says i went in one room and they said you're moses i went in another room down the hall and the folks said you was elijah the prophet i went on yet to another room and somebody said
[00:59:33] you're the reincarnation of john the baptist jesus listened what peter was saying and reporting from the rooms but then he looked at peter like only jesus could look at peter they had the most wonderful relationship there's a little peter in all of us you know i can walk on the water i can
[00:59:52] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_02]
[00:59:52] walk a help i'm drowning i'll never deny you i'll never deny you i never heard of him we're drawn to
[01:00:02] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_01]
[01:00:02] peter because you know he reminds us of somebody that looked in the mirror at us this morning who do you say i am from your room jesus said peter said watch this i don't know how to answer
[01:00:24] you jesus i don't know what to say i know it's entirely incongruent and and irreconcilable to to what i know to be true on so many levels i've talked to mary she told me you were born
[01:00:39] in bethlehem and i know that mary and joseph took you to jerusalem to be dedicated and i know you grew up up north in nazareth and you went to the synagogue there every week every shabbat
[01:00:55] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_06]
[01:00:55] I know that, and I know that John baptized you in the Jordan, so I got all these, but something, something is working all up inside of me, Jesus, that's beyond Bethlehem, beyond Jerusalem, beyond the Jordan, beyond Nazareth.
[01:01:15] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_01]
[01:01:15] I don't know how to explain it, but I happen to believe in my realm that you're the Messiah.
[01:01:24] Don't ask me to explain that, but I believe you are the Messiah, the son of the living God.
[01:01:31] And Jesus said, there's a blessing on you.
[01:01:33] There's a blessing on you, Peter.
[01:01:36] And I'm even saying it now.
[01:01:38] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_06]
[01:01:38] Blessed are you, Simon Barjona, because you ain't speaking information from the room, But you got a direct download of revelation from the realm.
[01:01:50] Flesh and blood didn't tell you.
[01:01:53] You didn't study the Torah.
[01:01:55] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_01]
[01:01:55] And get this, ain't no way you could know my truest identity without my Father who is in heaven.
[01:02:04] Then he pulls them together.
[01:02:05] The disciples say, come here, boys.
[01:02:06] I got to talk to you about something.
[01:02:07] In this second place, I got to tell you something.
[01:02:10] I'm about to share something with you.
[01:02:13] I've never spoken to anyone.
[01:02:14] And when I unleash this word, when I speak it from my lips, nothing will ever be the same.
[01:02:21] I'm going to build something, Jesus said to his disciples, that hasn't been built by me or anybody else.
[01:02:28] I'm going to build something that's never existed.
[01:02:33] And from that moment, when I build it, everything's going to change.
[01:02:39] I'm going to build my church.
[01:02:43] everybody say it's his church I'm going to build my church it belongs to me and Paul tells us in Acts chapter 20 verse 28 that Jesus bought her with his own blood he bought it before he birthed it
[01:03:03] he died on the cross and his blood was shed and from his blood came the church but the church won't burn until Pentecost
[01:03:11] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_06]
[01:03:11] so I'm going to buy it before I birth it and before I build it.
[01:03:20] So try to tell me it ain't my church.
[01:03:27] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_01]
[01:03:27] And my church isn't going to function like any other organization or entity or relationship.
[01:03:38] You're going to engage.
[01:03:42] It isn't something you engage from the room, what the room says, but by what the realm is doing.
[01:03:49] Let me define realm.
[01:03:51] Realm is from heaven.
[01:03:52] Realm is from the throne.
[01:03:54] Realm is what God is saying, and God, that's the realm.
[01:03:58] There's a difference between a group and a gathering.
[01:04:07] There are some folk assembled today that are nothing but groups, having room conversations.
[01:04:15] They are not gatherings of the Most High God.
[01:04:19] They sing songs but don't know how to make a sound.
[01:04:22] and if somebody started to make a sound they would be ushered out they don't do nothing with the hands but occasionally shake somebody's but they've never extended it towards heaven they certainly have never interrupted the atmosphere by clapping their hands it's a room
[01:04:38] not around you can't think speak and move like a room yet do the works of the realm you ain't to church if it's if the bible's not his word you ain't to church if the spirit isn't moving
[01:05:04] you ain't to church a windy room he said i'm giving you five-fold ministry not tossed here and there and everywhere a windy room is blown here and there with itching ears but a windy
[01:05:21] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_06]
[01:05:21] people reaches here and there with ears that hear what the spirit is saying to the church
[01:05:29] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_01]
[01:05:29] when faithful believers gather in a place it's actually a heavenly event on earth heaven happens on earth where the ecclesia that's the greek word for church assembled. Can I say that again? I know where we're located
[01:05:52] geographically. I can see what chair you're seated in.
[01:05:57] I know what state North Carolina, I know what nation United States I know that part. But when the people of God gather I took that out. I wasn't going to preach it until maybe next week
[01:06:10] but I got to go ahead and say this part. There's a difference between arriving at a building and hoping that the glory of God will come.
[01:06:24] Meena and I sing a song, and this choir sings a song.
[01:06:27] Tell me the name of the song.
[01:06:29] Here comes the glory.
[01:06:32] Here comes the glory of the Lord.
[01:06:33] Let me tell you something.
[01:06:34] The glory ain't coming in if he wasn't already there.
[01:06:40] All we're asking for is dimensions and waves of intensity.
[01:06:45] But he ain't, uh-uh.
[01:06:46] The Lord's glory is not going to show up in a dead room.
[01:06:49] he's going to show up where there's a faith that says Lord come Jesus come here right now I got to
[01:06:56] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_06]
[01:06:56] hear from you I got a praise in my mouth all ready to declare I've got a sound I've got to unleash that declares your goodness your greatness your supremacy your superiority come by here Lord Jesus
[01:07:09] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_01]
[01:07:09] come by here so I watch it so it's one thing to be in a room and arrive and hope that maybe the glory of the Lord will interrupt your room activities it's another thing to have the glory
[01:07:30] of God already in you watch this and not hope that the glory is in here everybody say this with me maybe make more sense this way the glory is in me in us but just as important we are in the glory
[01:07:58] see that's why you get out your car and something feels different than it did at your house now the glory was in you both places but you may have tested it a little bit but the glory of the
[01:08:12] lord is in you and then when you hit the sidewalk and you see somebody and you take the hand and you feel something already you ain't sung a song you ain't clapped your hand you ain't
[01:08:20] read nothing with the people and then you walk in the you walk in the lobby and people are hugging you and saying oh it's so great to see you i'm so glad it's going to be an extraordinary what's
[01:08:28] happened is this house now i understand that the church is not a building the church is a body i get that so i don't need you to quote that to me but i also know this you can't stop god from
[01:08:42] filling a space that's become hallowed by the praises of his people not just any building
[01:08:50] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_06]
[01:08:50] we'll do this mortar and clay we've already taught the concrete the steps and the wood we've already commanded the paint and the ceiling tiles this place is dedicated to praising the most high god these ain't ordinary folks these are the redeemed of the lord who've come to say so
[01:09:15] so i'm bringing the glory and when i got here i found the glory waiting on me i can tell you i can tell you good i'll come over here and sit where lynn's sitting some sunday nights and i'll
[01:09:32] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_01]
[01:09:32] sit there ain't nobody here and i'll go up and i'll sit right there ain't nothing but a little bit of light into space and you ain't singing and you ain't i don't hear your praises in here
[01:09:43] i i hear the the spiritual realming reverberations and i'm telling you the glory is in there i don't need you to theologically somehow to come tell me and try to convince me because i i ain't got time
[01:09:57] to be wrong i'm telling you the lord the glory of the lord dwells in this place because the people who come in this place he dwells in them so listen you are part of a place that dwells in god
[01:10:13] as much as he dwells so folk who argue with you against your church is because most of them walk and and sing and and look at one another and play computer games in the room they've never had an
[01:10:37] experience in the realm. Or they would ask you not to come back. Why are you lifting your hands?
[01:10:44] Why are you clapping your hands? Why are you walking up here? Young lady, what were you doing up here when you came up here? This is an altar and this sanctum. Don't you know we've got the
[01:10:52] body and blood of Jesus up here? We've got it. And you just got up and decided you're going to walk down the aisle. And I didn't even put attention on you because I didn't want nobody
[01:11:01] else looking at you. And why did she do that? Why did she? Because she's a realmite. She ain't a
[01:11:11] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_06]
[01:11:11] rheumite. She heard from the Lord. She was prompted.
[01:11:15] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_01]
[01:11:15] You did come all the way up here, didn't you? Okay. I'm preaching. Did she come all the way up here?
[01:11:19] Okay. Because I'm preaching the whole big glorious thing and you may have stopped halfway and greeted somebody. I don't have a clue. But the reason she walked down here and I'm guessing put an offering or a prayer request or something
[01:11:31] is because something pricked, prodded her spirit. He who has an ear, let him hear. Let her hear what the spirit is saying i need to move on i didn't but this is everybody say i'm sitting in
[01:11:50] heaven by the faith of god i'm already seated in heavenly places but where i'm at right now i'm sitting in heaven negation negation in moving in kingdom authority and power it's just a religious spirit hacking our symbols and narrative this is a huge moment peter when
[01:12:23] you made that grand statement i believe you are the christ the son of the living god that's extraordinary because my father who is in heaven hath imparted it into your spirit man you didn't study your way into that revelation you didn't hear it from the room me people but you had an
[01:12:45] impact only watch this let me stop just yeah only the ecclesia has the cornea see i never been to that church, but he's got them speaking in tongues on the screen. I mean, they was writing in tongues
[01:12:58] on the screen. Let me tell you what, there's two Greek words up there. The ecclesia is the Greek word for church. Now they already knew that word. It was a common word and it didn't mean nothing
[01:13:10] about Jesus. It didn't mean anything about Holy Ghost or speaking in tongues or giving in an offering or praying for the sick. It wasn't that at all. It was a gathering, actually a governmental moment and a community event but there's something in the ecclesia the cornea now if you come to this
[01:13:26] church long enough we're going to assign you to what we call the a link it's a group maybe five people maybe 10 15 people so we can make sure when something happens in your life and your family
[01:13:37] that your link leader hears about it and then reaches out to myself or pastor debbie so we know and we can pray about the need in your life and living link means for us living in cornea now the
[01:13:51] word cornea simply means it's a greek word that means that special holy ghost kind of fellowship you have with realmites see you work with folk and that's fine i'm not i'm not accusing them another but they can't give you cornea you can go to school and study and and be all kinds of smart
[01:14:13] and be surrounded by brainiacs who help you to be, that's good too, but they can't, they're not realmites.
[01:14:19] They're excellent roomites, but they're not realmites.
[01:14:22] You can go to the grocery store and people be nice and the young lady at the counter, young man at the counter, help you, and that's one of you, have a conversation and you stand there
[01:14:30] talking to them and it's like, wow, this is amazing.
[01:14:31] You're having a room conversation, but they're not realmites.
[01:14:37] Only the ecclesia, the church people, the realm, the realmites, have that supernatural holy that when you stand in unity with them folk you then get to say something with your mouth in agreement and it manifests
[01:14:58] the presence, the power, the promises of God in your life everybody say I might not look like it but I'm part of the ecclesia and I'm sitting beside the kononia Now you go home and tell everybody the Greek words you learned today.
[01:15:19] If a congregation.
[01:15:21] Well, I done moved that part there.
[01:15:22] And here's something else Jesus said.
[01:15:24] There's something else you should know.
[01:15:27] Watch this.
[01:15:28] How many of people, I don't like your church because it's so intense.
[01:15:33] I mean, everything's just like keyed up.
[01:15:35] I mean, can you show me where the restroom is?
[01:15:39] It's down the hall.
[01:15:42] Enjoy.
[01:15:42] Why are you people so keyed up?
[01:15:50] And you wouldn't know it if you come to our houses.
[01:15:51] we're pretty quiet and and only occasionally do we throw things we're pretty but when we're in the presence and the glory of the lord i want a church that'll that's calm i need a church
[01:16:07] that's peace see your definition of peace and my definite peace definition of peace is different you think you've got peace when you can avoid a conflict my definition of peace is when i win
[01:16:22] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_06]
[01:16:22] I don't want a peace because I got my head in the sand.
[01:16:38] I got a peace because my head's in the cloud.
[01:16:41] And I'm declaring the goodness and the greatness greater is he who is in us than he who is in the world.
[01:16:53] Listen, that kind of peace will hit you different.
[01:16:57] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_01]
[01:16:57] So he wanted you to know when you're looking for that quiet, peace, subtle.
[01:17:02] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_00]
[01:17:02] I've gone through a lot.
[01:17:03] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_01]
[01:17:03] I just, the first time the word church is ever used, Jesus says, and the gates are hell.
[01:17:14] The church was conceived by the Holy Spirit, but it was born in the middle of conflict.
[01:17:20] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_06]
[01:17:20] But don't let anxiety keep you up at night. Don't you let it steal your appetite or take up too much of your real estate in your mind. You can be fully assured that there ain't a devil in hell
[01:17:37] that can ever survive the onslaught of the overcoming church of the Lord Jesus, who is the Lord, the Christ of us.
[01:17:52] And what does he say?
[01:17:53] He says there is a prophetic inevitability to the overcoming presence and power of my church by my realm.
[01:18:07] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_01]
[01:18:07] Now, a roomy church, a roomy gathering might not make it to next Sunday.
[01:18:12] but a real me put folk redeemed by the blood filled with the spirit oh i'm feeling my
[01:18:25] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_06]
[01:18:25] walking into word go out on the battlefield not anxious not troubled not disturbed but fully assured i can do all things through christ who strengthens me the church will never lose the church can never lose
[01:18:57] because it's his church and he's sovereign and he's supreme and he's Lord oh Lord
[01:19:13] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_01]
[01:19:13] I'm trying my best alright rest of you let's go and on the day of Pentecost eleven disciples and others were gathered in the upper room they were in Jerusalem because Jesus said don't leave Jerusalem
[01:19:28] don't go anywhere until you've received the presence and the power of the promise they had room thoughts up there didn't say they were bad thoughts but they said you know what one of them disciples of ours he's dead because he betrayed denied jesus and he went and hung himself
[01:19:44] now we ain't got 12 we're out of order we got to get 12 so we got to vote for somebody so let's have an election but in the middle of the room conversations there came the sound of a rushing
[01:19:56] mighty wind from the realm and they began to speak in tongues as this this and there weren't two lines i'm in the tongue talking line and no i don't believe in that i'm sorry there was but one line
[01:20:12] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_06]
[01:20:12] i don't know where what denomination you grew up with but if it's got biblical supernatural roots sooner or later sometime or another them folk prayed in the holy ghost they began to speak in tongues as the spirit of God gave them utterance from the realm and there was something your Bible
[01:20:35] said like tongues of fire distributing upon every one of them like it had been Moses and he glowed with such shekinah that the folk couldn't even look at him and the room itself shook by the
[01:20:48] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_01]
[01:20:48] presence and power of God the room the realm shook the room and when that moment began to subside those at the bottom of the stairs who had heard the commotion wondered what was happening because
[01:21:05] they knew the folk up yonder in the upper room and there was nothing simple but simple room folk but they were hearing their own languages from the cities from out and it wasn't because Peter and the others
[01:21:17] had studied those languages in other rooms but because yet again there was a round revelation from the throne of God coming upon them with power stand to your feet please I ain't finished it's hard for me to slap a devil when I got my coat on thank you sir help me out Reggie I'm 65
[01:21:44] help me out thank you sir we're going to declare the praises of the one God God gave this to me many many months ago whenever in a few months we declare it yet again now watch this when folk
[01:21:58] criticize your church find out where they stand with all this and what you're going to find out is the most dangerous place of your life in spiritual warfare when dealing is the altar i'm gonna get to in just a moment but right now we're gonna talk we're gonna talk about healing
[01:22:18] but we got sick folk i'm talking about the one church not just this local place now i'm talking about the one church i'm talking about the 54 buildings we're building in in nigeria i'm talking
[01:22:27] about the churches that we've helped in latin america i'm talking about the churches we've helped in eastern europe see i'm talking about the one holy universal church this is a standard by which all of them, all of us stand together.
[01:22:39] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_06]
[01:22:39] Amen.
[01:22:40] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_01]
[01:22:40] All right, here we go.
[01:22:41] We have more authority than any lying thing that speaks beneath.
[01:22:49] Can somebody just shout right there?
[01:22:51] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_06]
[01:22:51] We got more authority than any lying thing beneath our feet.
[01:23:06] For in the faith of God, we already seated in heavenly.
[01:23:11] Stop right there and shout holy.
[01:23:16] Now I ain't talking about a local congregation.
[01:23:19] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_01]
[01:23:19] right here. Because somebody's going to say, well, you don't know my church. We ain't holy.
[01:23:23] Well, okay, here we go. But watch this. I'm talking about the one church. He's coming back for one church. We are. Now listen, you ain't got to put on the fake modesty. Don't put on
[01:23:38] no fake humility now and say, I can't say that part, brother, because I'm a sinner saved by grace. You need a new Bible. You need a new vocabulary. You're more than a sinner saved by grace. You've been redeemed by the blood. You're a son of God. You're a daughter of God.
[01:23:53] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_06]
[01:23:53] you're a joint there with jesus peter said the divine nature of god is flowing all up inside
[01:24:01] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_01]
[01:24:01] of you stop talking like a i gotta hurry it always gets on my nerves when i hear that and so listen judge me for what what don't judge me for what i say but what i could have said and didn't
[01:24:22] you're welcome I'm just a sinner saved by grace I'm not calling you when I need God because if he ain't done no better work on you and you're still a sinner saved by grace I'm a daughter
[01:24:36] I'm the bride of Christ I'm a joint heir I got Holy Ghost all up and down the avenues of my heart don't bring me your defeated Christianity I'm more than a conqueror
[01:24:48] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_06]
[01:24:48] through Jesus Christ who loved me and gave himself oh man well shall we continue we are the holiest thing in this unholy world we are the redeemed
[01:25:04] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_01]
[01:25:04] of the lord well i ain't felt so good today i understand but this is what the one church is we are the among through and everybody celebrate right now and as you're celebrating you are declaring the healing and wholeness of all our people well let's go on some more we are the
[01:25:32] oh stop i knew you were gonna go there you're one of them prosperity people yeah when your poverty gets bad enough you're gonna want a prosperity person probably not to pray for you you don't think like that you just want a loan better yet you want a gift yes look up deuteronomy
[01:25:55] 8 18 not now when you find it up behind the break i was going to preach it next sunday might still preach it again next sunday deuteronomy 8 18 i'm gonna stand right here thank you sir because
[01:26:08] thank you for looking for that you know i we don't we don't believe in prosperity every good and perfect my god shall supply let me tell you something as i said it last week if you're
[01:26:18] hungry food is prosperous if you're sick healing is prosperous if your mind's tormented by the enemy then peace is prosperous oh i'm this is the verse i'm it was all right deuteronomy 8 18 this is worth waiting on you are to remember adonai the lord your god because it is he
[01:26:55] who he and when it says who is he again it is he he is giving you the power see the problem is you don't know your purpose so you're allergic to prosperity but what it what i'm gonna say that
[01:27:13] again because some of y'all still was reading watch this but just he gives you power to get wealth now if i saw you thinking i'm not saying you have a 10 million dollar house or drive a
[01:27:24] 300 000 car if you got that i couldn't care less or don't have that i couldn't care less but watch this prosperity without purpose will eventually lead you to poverty you ever watch somebody win
[01:27:37] 60 million dollars and you come back in two years and they're four million dollars in debt because where there is no wisdom with wealth he who is giving you the power to get wealth in order there's an order circle in order might be the most important to confirm his covenant
[01:28:00] which he swore to your ancestors and is having that what is he saying he's got to make me wealthy so when he calls me to go somewhere i don't have to ask you to loan me the money i need to be
[01:28:16] healthy when he says i need you to go somewhere i ain't got i ain't got to say well i ain't felt good lately i don't think he gives you health and wealth to fulfill the covenant promises of god
[01:28:27] in your life how much of how many times am i standing in disobedience to what god's called me to do because i didn't feel well or i didn't have the money to do it prosperity without purpose
[01:28:40] and because folk don't know they don't have no purpose then they're allergic to your prosperity
[01:28:44] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_06]
[01:28:44] we are the wealthiest people on this impoverished planet through his riches in glory back now i ain't
[01:28:59] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_01]
[01:28:59] asking you how what you think about your cousin and you know he's a kind of a crate watch this
[01:29:03] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_06]
[01:29:03] we are the most oh no i know you've gone too far we the most brilliant people in the midst of ignorance through a fleshy mind is jesus omniscient is god does he know all things
[01:29:28] then if he's flowing and pulsating through your sanctified soul you have the wisdom of god that can step in a chaos and speak a word of peace that'll shut a devil down and you will walk as
[01:29:44] a solutioner that sets the captives we are the most why church of the lord jesus christ is that people called out from the world by redemption and then called back into the world redemptively
[01:30:16] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_01]
[01:30:16] if your holiness still has you separated from the world it ain't complete i just slept some church folk. I grew up with them. I know them real well. He's called me out from the world. What does go
[01:30:37] ye into all the world mean to you? Now it didn't say go out there and be like them, but hopefully your Holy ghost is greater than that. So you come out from the world. You let God do something
[01:30:50] extraordinary in your life so he can return you to the lost and you can speak a word that changes and turns them around. They can look at your sanctified life as a living, breathing testimony
[01:31:01] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_06]
[01:31:01] because they grew up with you and they know you was raunchy had a bad mouth a bad attitude but if that's what Jesus can do in you then it's bordered only by the blood of Jesus and includes
[01:31:22] souls from all time and space every ethnicity and nation every socio-economic background hallelujah praise god for his church that's the one church that's the one church keep going with
[01:31:44] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_01]
[01:31:44] me just a moment jesus church is one i wanted to capitalize one i'm sorry jesus church is one
[01:31:51] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_06]
[01:31:51] his church has many people jesus church is one composed of many peoples church is mentioned 114 times in your Bible and 93 times refers
[01:32:09] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_01]
[01:32:09] to local gatherings.
[01:32:11] I don't need a local church because I just belong.
[01:32:17] I'm just a part of his overcoming one church.
[01:32:20] Now, I ain't saying we want you here, but there's somewhere for you.
[01:32:28] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_06]
[01:32:28] The one church is composed
[01:32:30] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_01]
[01:32:30] of many peoples and 114 times you find that word church in your Bible.
[01:32:35] 93 of the overwhelming majority has to do with folk in local situations paul wrote 13 letters or epistles and nine of them were to local congregations jesus wrote letters to several congregate to seven congregations in modern day turkey be seated so we talked about the one church
[01:32:55] i'm gonna move quickly swiftly because we got stuff to do we talked about the one church now quickly let me talk about the local. 4660 Brownsboro Road, Winston-Salem, North Carolina is one of them peoples. Namely, community church. Y'all need to find somewhere else to worship.
[01:33:32] If that's all that did for you right there, well, thank you, God. Thank you for the hope I have in you, Lord.
[01:33:41] Yes, Brownsboro, yes.
[01:33:45] At a half years old, you can stand in unity and speak in agreement the statements of faith that peoples of faith declare all over the world.
[01:34:13] And yet, there's certain callings that are upon this house that he has not required of another people.
[01:34:20] And there's assignments upon their anointing that are not required of us.
[01:34:26] watch this oh for real watch this this is one of the most important things i'm going to ever say to you nothing is attacked more in your life than where you bow and where he blesses you divine
[01:34:51] synchronicity being in the right place at the right time with the right people doing the right thing if he can break that up in any kind of way if god has targeted a blessing at a certain spot
[01:35:01] and for whatever reason i'm not in the spot don't blame god don't blame the devil don't blame your mama get in line where god chooses to speak to you and you choose to speak to him now listen that
[01:35:21] may this place may be your jerusalem it may be that spot for you praise god this may not be the spot for you i have absolutely no problem when someone says to me i don't believe this is where
[01:35:32] God speaks to me I hear you please don't stop until you find it and anybody that's ever left this place and gone to another place they will tell you I never chased them I never called them
[01:35:46] or wrote to them and said you ought to come back home no no no no I pastor grown-ups and when you leave I figure you're still grown up and if you tell me God told me to leave I ain't gonna argue
[01:35:59] with god where you plant by your hand and he prospers by his hand your peculiar will be persecuted not being just the one church but when you're at that place if god said i want you on
[01:36:23] this local congregation be there serve there give there it was at the holiest place outside the garden it was at the altar that Abel brought a peculiar particular sacrifice that God had commanded and where Abel obeyed and where Abel was moved in faith it was there that the enemy
[01:36:48] killed him it's your obedience that's drawing persecution it's your faithfulness that's drawing attacks they're coming after you because you're going after him if you just find a quiet room show up once a month give god a tip every now and then they don't care ain't gonna say nothing
[01:37:17] because that's what they do but when i'm being so good a lot of churches don't even have an altar this is a nice building i like your building it's real pretty and and i like all your screens
[01:37:37] and you got all them lights.
[01:37:39] I feel like I'm at a show.
[01:37:41] I wonder what that means.
[01:37:43] But I really wanted to pray.
[01:37:47] Where's your altar?
[01:37:49] Altar?
[01:37:50] Yeah, I mean, where can I go bow down?
[01:37:53] If you have attended the same church for at least one year and you haven't physically gotten out of your seat and knelt somewheres in that building called an altar, you need to get out and run.
[01:38:07] Don't even turn around.
[01:38:08] do not collect two hundred dollars you hear me if they don't have an altar where does he speak to you if there's no altar and you've got a crisis going on in your life where do you go and weep
[01:38:25] and declare them and remind him of his covenant promise if they don't have an altar where do you bring your sacrifice that explains why there's no blood there upon this altar you're weird people strange folk you're peculiar watch this i said watch this it's your peculiar that brings you
[01:38:54] persecution if you look sound like every other church it's cool we might even all get together and have a kumbaya saturday or something but when you hear from god he who has in here here's what
[01:39:09] it says to the churches on this altar well this is gonna be a problem y'all got a menorah how many Jews go to your church more than you would think you got this Jewish thing going on and then
[01:39:34] this is about as bad you you you got a Jesus hanging on the cross and he ain't on the cross no more so why do you because you forgot he was ever there and you ain't never crawled up one
[01:39:50] he said pick up your cross where were you hiding that thing and follow he might not be on the cross but he still got the scars and they ain't going nowhere when you get i gotta believe when you get
[01:40:11] there and you see the streets of gold and the walls of jasper and the gates of pearl ain't none of that come close to watching shekinah go through his wounds and if he holds up his foot and the
[01:40:23] light just goes through the holes in his foot and if he just wearing a robe and he pulls back and lets you see the hole in his side and if you see them them brow okay so you got him on a you got
[01:40:35] a you got a jewish thing going on here and then you got this kind of strange looking cross with gold and i don't even and then you got a shofar why y'all got a shofar you got several of them
[01:40:47] up here and then you got this sensor thing like what that's a holy ghost air freshener i don't even know what that is and then you got wine and bread over here and then people giving their money
[01:40:59] on this and it i'm gonna just be honest with you it all sounds a little culty to me you're laughing because that's what you've heard here's something go go look it up today i haven't heard this since
[01:41:14] i was in first year college cult is actually a good word forget forget their idea of cult anything that has to do with the blood and the sacrificial system it's called the cult I'll leave that alone that's a whole other but look up the word cult now yeah give me some crazy
[01:41:34] people following crazy people and doing crazy things absolutely but actually the word cult c-u-l-t the the blood and and the the anguish the suffering the ripping of the flesh the propitiation for our sins all of that has to do with the cult and so you got this menorah and
[01:41:55] you got this crucifix and then you got all this other stuff up up in here and so why you got Well, see, when we look at this, we do see God's promise to Abraham, the seed of Abraham, and he created a Jewish people through whom came Jesus who died upon the cross.
[01:42:11] And so, yes, when you see the menorah and you see the wall, oh, now we're in real trouble.
[01:42:18] The menorah and the wall, and you see the crucifix, we're not mixed up.
[01:42:24] We're one.
[01:42:27] One blood, one Lord, one faith, one body, the one new man.
[01:42:36] it's one thing to walk into a church building and find your prescribed seat and quickly watch the religious activities of others and leave unchanged people do it every time but when you insist on moving by faith give me a minute you still hear
[01:43:02] me y'all still hear me okay i've had it with all of you i'm leaving can you hear me do you know it's raining outside let's talk about that because that's a roomy conversation it's raining out here
[01:43:22] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_02]
[01:43:22] and it's kind of breezy and we got a sheriff's department car no that's supposed to mean about
[01:43:30] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_01]
[01:43:30] your church and then i just saw jim petrick open the door and look at the children coming down the aisle that is so precious and that is so sweet i love every bit of that what i'm doing is having
[01:43:41] an outer court conversation ain't nothing wrong with it but it's out and somebody get away from me turn that thing because i'm hearing my echo oh i'm watching the tv that's what it is oh i look
[01:43:53] good. I'm in the outer court. I'm in the outer, can I open these doors? Open this one. I'm on the sidewalk. I ain't standing in the rain to make a point, but I'm out here in the outer court having
[01:44:06] outer court experience. Now listen, watch this, watch this, watch this. The outer court is where you should share your testimony. It's where you should tell folk what God did this week, not what somebody else did this week. It's where you declare the miracles, the presence and the power of God
[01:44:27] that he did where you work where you serve whatever it is and then as i'm in the outer court i determine i'm gonna greet folk we got a beautiful dog out here that's a beautiful
[01:44:41] german shepherd dog out here my goodness and we're in the outer court ain't nothing wrong with the outer court that's how you get to the next but then when i open up now i'm i'm in the
[01:44:50] holy place see there's three there's the outer court the holy place and the holy of holies so I just came out to the outer court ain't nothing wrong with the outer court it's the part of the process it's a wonderful thing and that also takes place in my own being
[01:45:03] I hear things in the room I'm a roomy person for a while I hear sounds in the room but then it gets a little bit deeper it gets into the holy place so in the holy place I can I start to sense his
[01:45:14] presence and his power and and I'm I'm watch this this is where we praise praise is where I continuously declare the resume of god i testified what he's done for me out in the lobby that's why
[01:45:34] out in the outer court that's where you make a difference but when i came to the holy place now i'm declaring what he's done in his word uh i somebody just you you start you just start from
[01:45:48] the scriptures declaring his wonders and his mercies and and and and and you supply all my needs according to you i can do all things through christ and and he is able to do you are able to do
[01:45:58] exceedingly abundantly above all that i can ask watch this watch this i'm still praising praising is changing the atmosphere worship is changing me i ain't there yet i'm not worshiping when i first walk in i'm praising i was in the outer court now i'm in the holy place this is what your bible
[01:46:20] calls it there's three dimensions three literally structurally in the building there's three now when you walked in what's amazing is when you walked in this morning through the outer court through the holy when you came in here there were probably three dozen folk already standing at the
[01:46:38] holy of holies am i coming close to getting this so when i get up here on sunday mornings or thursday nights and i'm trying my best to help us get to a different space what i'm trying to do is help us
[01:46:49] snatch folk from the outer court because you can have a conversation out there that'll paralyze you from ever getting to the holy of holies you can see feel something out y'all so what i'm needing to do i'm not going to leave the outer court i'm gonna bring it with me and sanctify it
[01:47:05] at the holy of holies i i'm not going to forsake the holy place i'm gonna pick it up too and i'm gonna bring it till i get to this spot right here or wherever in this to where he can speak to my
[01:47:17] innermost being. I said, praise changes the atmosphere. Worship changes me. Worship is a different place. I'm not just praising God according to his word. Now worship is where I surrender. This is where the sacrifice is made. This is where the blood is shed. This is where I
[01:47:37] take all of me and, and pour it out on him out yonder. I testified out here. I praised him right here, I got so deep into worship that it's changed my life. Okay. Could y'all really hear me out,
[01:47:50] Chanda? Move quick. Let's see. There's other particulars. Of course, we got worship. We got a young lady that was up here dancing on the stage while I go into church. You get persecuted for that. Whatever is your peculiar is what you're going to get persecuted for. There's two
[01:48:13] admonitions I close with. One, you're not a people with itching ears. Would you just slip up your hand when I describe you. If you've been to this church for five years, would you raise your hand?
[01:48:29] If you've been to this church for 10 years, if you've been to this place, and keep them up the whole time for this, because I want folks to see something. If you've been here for 15 years,
[01:48:37] would you raise your hand? How about 20? How about 25? If you've been at this church for 30 years, all that time I asked you, if you were five, keep your five-year-old hand up. Keep your 10-year-old
[01:48:50] having a, keep your 15 year old, keep your 20 year, keep it 30 year. Keep it. So what is this saying? It's saying this ain't a church that just dropped out of heaven a year ago and we're waiting
[01:49:00] to see it. You are seated amongst settled people in God. The word is established in them. They've got a living, breathing testimony. This is not a place that jumps up and chases the next preacher
[01:49:13] down the street because their ears are itching and they're wanting to see what he might say to make them listen with some folk all you got to do is paint the bathroom in your building and that's
[01:49:23] new enough for them to go visit you they're that fickle they're that shallow but that ain't these folk that ain't these folk so so you're not a people with itching ears but your ears with your
[01:49:38] ears you hear what the spirit is saying to the church don't listen I feel sorry because this happened and it gets real when folk come in and they think they're going to change us and I love
[01:49:49] to watch you because you read them by the time they get to that you read them and you shake their hand and you love on them and the next time you see them you're just so kind and you're so good
[01:49:59] to them and they're thinking they're maneuvering their way they think they're getting rooted in your life and they're going to call some shots and then about about a month from now they're somewhere else slithering because you you were able to say we're glad you're here and we love
[01:50:15] you and we'll pray with you but but you're not changing us we're being changed back in his glory day sect number two don't neglect the realmy people for the rooms in fact book of hebrews says
[01:50:32] gather even more as you see that day approaching i've gone a long time i'm going to ask the cameras to turn off for me let me know when all communication social media has been thank you
[01:50:47] There's nothing wrong.
