God bless each of you that are joining us on
today on Facebook Live and those that will be watching
us on my YouTube channel Pastor Ronnie Hooks, and those
that will be listening by way of Hope Gospel Radio
Station on your Internet and iHeartRadio and other forms of
(01:49):
media that we are attempting to get the Word of
God out on. It's about God's word being put out there,
but it's about souls being saved. Is about men becoming
disciples of God and not disciples of men. For we
know and we believe that these are the last and
(02:10):
evil days. We see the science right down in front
of our faces. We read our Bible, and we see
the things that are coming that are happening, calamities. The
earth is groaning and travailing, waiting eagerly for the revealing
of the sons of God because it had been subjected
(02:30):
to the corruption of sin innocently. So we thank God
for you, and we thank God for this ministry. This
is the Word of life John one fourteen Church. And
the Word became flesh and d wealth among us. And
we be held in glory that of the only be Godden,
of the Father, full of grace and truth. And I'm
(02:54):
pastor writing hooks, Well, we thank God again for each
of you and those that are in our zoom audience,
although that belong to our church from New York to
Indiana to Oklahoma and other parts of the United States, Pittsburgh,
we thank God for each of you on today. Holler
(03:16):
in lu Yah and in Jamaica to God be the glory.
All right, let's say a word of prayer and then
we're going to get into the Word of God Father
in Heaven. Hollowed be thy name, holloweth be thy name,
Thy Kingdom.
Speaker 2 (03:32):
Come.
Speaker 3 (03:33):
Thine will be done in earth, even as it is
in Heaven. Father, as you make your abode in this
earth and vessel. Lord, we ask Lord that you help us,
help me to move aside, and allow the Holy Spirit,
the Spirit of truth, to speak to your people. You
(03:54):
have blessed them with the ear, but bless them with
the ear to hear. But the spirit is saying, and
the heart to receive it. Even as the scales fell
off of the eyes of Saul and he became Paul,
so let the scales fall off of our eyes, as
Matthew said, that we may see clearly, Hallelujah, that we
may be helped, that we may help someone else. Hallelujah.
(04:18):
We know your word will not return void. We know
that it will go out with power. Lord, but Lord,
help us not to reject it. In the name of Jesus.
And we be so careful to give you all the
glory then and the praise, for the enemy is defeated,
he is already rebuked. And we thank you and give
you jaw and give you glory and praise. Our Father
(04:39):
asks that you forgive us our truspasses.
Speaker 1 (04:43):
Every seeing.
Speaker 3 (04:44):
Every form of unrighteousness that we've committed on is yet
still in us.
Speaker 1 (04:50):
Purge us from it, and that son Jesus name, we
do pray.
Speaker 3 (04:53):
Amen and amen, excuse me, all right, you are we
are going to talk about it is essential in your
lives and my life as a pastor, one that is
called after God's own heart to feed his flock with
(05:16):
knowledge and understanding that you know that God is soon
to come, but he expects to find faith in the earth,
and that he expects to find his bride without spot
or wrinkle or any such thing. Now knowing that the
scripture says that faith only work is by love. So
(05:40):
the first fruit of the spirit that is given to
us is love, and God is love. Right, So it
takes God to operate the faith that we need to
produce to other attributes or the other segments of the
fruit joy, peace, long suffering, forgiveness, long self impatience, meetness, kindness, gentleness,
(06:05):
and all those things. It takes the love of God
to produce those things because we cannot do them ourselves.
We cannot, so we need God. Jesus even states this
in the Book of John. He said, it's not me
to do it to work, but my Father that is
(06:26):
in me. Yeah, if you had known me, you would
have known the Father. Glory to God. So let's jump
into the word on today. We're going to Ephesians chapter four.
Ephesians chapter four I like for you to follow along
with me as much as possible. But main thing is
that I've been told is I'm going to give you
(06:48):
the scriptures so you can follow at your leisure. The
main thing is that you hear what is being said.
Write down these scriptures though, and if you can follow
and follow, but make sure you them or that you're
right now in the future going forth, I will try
to make sure that I do this because it's essential
that you uh that you are able to choose who
(07:12):
you're going to serve yourself or God. Okay, we're in
Phesians chapter four. Now we started in verse one. But
before I start, my title or the title that is
given to me to minister to you all is to
become one in God. Become one in God, become one
(07:46):
in God.
Speaker 1 (07:49):
Ephesians chapter four, verse.
Speaker 3 (07:51):
One through seven, Paul talking. I, therefore, the prisoner of
the Lord, beseech you that she walk worthy of the vocation.
Now remember Paul used to be named Saul, and he
(08:12):
was a persecutor of the church. He was knocked off
of his beast and approached by Jesus. Okay, and he
was converted on the Damascus road. And he became Paul. Now,
the Bible says that further on in the scriptures that
(08:36):
after his experience on straight Street and the scales fell
off of his eyes, he went into the Arabian desert
to be taught of the Lord. In other words, he
became an apostle out of due season, meaning that he
was not with Jesus originally, but he was taught by Jesus.
Glory to God, hallelujah. And to further go into this,
(09:02):
I need you to know that he was once like us, hallelujah.
But now he says, beseech you, the Lord, beseech you
that you want worthy of the vocation or the purpose
or the job. Hollow wherewith ye are called now that
(09:26):
we are called out of that former state of mind,
that former state of being who you were. Now you
have a calling on your life. Now you have a
purpose in life. Hallelujah. Remember we're talking about becoming one. Hallelujah.
Speaker 1 (09:45):
Verse two. With all listen to.
Speaker 3 (09:47):
This, with all loneliness, meekness, with long suffering for bearing
one another, love, loneliness. We have to come out of ourselves.
(10:09):
Stop letting it be all about you. Come out of ourselves.
Now be so swift that.
Speaker 1 (10:18):
Have something to say, but think about what the Lord
has given you. Meekness meat does not mean you're weak.
It just means that you abstain. You're reserved.
Speaker 3 (10:32):
Okay, long suffering, not just patient, but long suffering, able
to stand the test, able to endure, because we know
those who endure shall be saved.
Speaker 1 (10:47):
And forbearing. Now this word forbearing.
Speaker 3 (10:52):
Hallelujah, means to restrain or refrain from in hallelujh refrain
for burying one another in love, forbearing a refrain from
having the same behavior or having the same old conversations
(11:13):
with one another. Change your behavior with one another. This
is how you show us true love. Jesus said this.
If you love me, keep my commandments. If you love me,
love your neighbor. Okay, as yourself. So there are certain
things you don't like being said to you, So be
careful with your words how you approach one another.
Speaker 1 (11:36):
Hallelujah.
Speaker 3 (11:37):
And this is an ongoing process that we are called
to adhere ourselves to me as well, every day I
have to subm like Paul. I have to submit myself
under the mighty hand of God and allow.
Speaker 1 (11:53):
Myself to be guided into the truth by the spirit.
Speaker 3 (12:00):
Verse three, endeavoring, which means to try hard, endeavoring to
keep the unity Hallelujah, the unity, Hallelujah of love, Hallelujah,
(12:21):
Lord to God. Trying to keep the unity of love.
That is the unity, the oneness, the unity of the spirit,
the unity of the Spirit, trying to keep the unity
of earnestly endeavoring, trying hard to keep the unity of
(12:41):
the Spirit. And that just simply means that staying in
the spirit, not wavering, not taking an opportunity to say
what you want to say, or do what you want
to do, or even think what you want to think,
but always holding yourself into subjection. Hallelujah, of whose prays,
if not nothing else, but whose presence you're in, And
(13:03):
that is God. You're in the presence of God, because
you are. Your body is a temple of the Holy Ghost, hallelujah.
Speaker 1 (13:13):
Verse four. There is one body, one spirit.
Speaker 3 (13:18):
Even ye are, even as ye are called in one
hope of your calling. Now your calling is what to
be disciples of God, to be followers of God, to
be followers of Christ. Rather be follows of Christ and
do the things that Christ did. Christ said this the
(13:39):
worst that I do you shall do also and greater works.
Why because I go to my father and pray for you,
He prayed for us, that we are equipped for every
good work. Paul tells us in First Timothy three sixteen
that all scripture is good for reproof, correction, hallow, re instructions,
(14:02):
and righteousness, that we might be thoroughly equipped for what
every good work. Why because we are God's work with ship.
It is God that do it the work through us. Hallelujah,
Glory to God. Verse five. One Lord, one faith, one baptism,
one God and Father of us, all the oneness of God,
(14:26):
the wonness of God, Hallelujah, who is above all and
through all, and in all verse seven. But unto every
one of us is given grace. Now we need this grace,
this favor of God, because and Paul discovers within us
(14:49):
in verse seven of Romans, that there's nothing good that
dwelleth in the flesh. He finds that there is an
evil desire that in our members. James called it that.
James says this, that we are drawn away because of
our own luss and we enticed.
Speaker 1 (15:10):
These are our.
Speaker 3 (15:11):
Own wicked ways. He tells us to turn from our
wicked ways. Now we can blame it, as we discussed
in our Sunday school lesson, we can blame it on
our forefathers wife. Just like my daddy, I cuse just
like my daddy. I drank just like my daddy. I
swear just like my mama. Okay. Or I'm like this
(15:32):
because my daddy did this to my mama, did that
to me, or they didn't do this for me and
they didn't do that. We can play the blame game
all we want to. But God brings to us a
new way. He said, do you in other words, do
you want to stay the same or do you want
to come out of that? If you want to come
(15:53):
out of that, stop complaining and follow me.
Speaker 1 (15:55):
Go over to God. But until every one of us.
Speaker 3 (15:59):
Is given grace according to the measure of the gift
of Christ, according to the measure.
Speaker 1 (16:09):
Of the gift of Christ, how much of Christ exists
in you?
Speaker 3 (16:19):
The word Christ means the chosen one, the anointed one Christ, hallelujah,
the anointed one. The word of God is anointed Jesus Christ,
the word anointed. How much of that word is hidden
in your heart?
Speaker 1 (16:40):
David said.
Speaker 3 (16:41):
David said that I might not sin against theve Why
because we do have a will, and we can choose
to reject the will of God. Case in point, this
is one of my friend Pastor Adams to use Chapter
(17:02):
five of Matthew. I believe it first forty three or
forty four. He said to two lovers to do this,
Love your enemy, bless them that, bless them that curse you.
Do good to them that don't good, Do good to you.
Pray for them that despitefully use you, and say all
(17:24):
matter of evil against you, saying, see there was in
the flesh. Those are some hard things to do because
we naturally, we naturally want to blame them, We naturally
want to blame one another, We naturally want to find
(17:45):
our comfort zone rather than deal with the fact that
there's some work in me that needs to be done,
not just in me, but in my heart and in
my mind. My mind has to be transformed, my heart
has to be renewed, and the spirit within me has
(18:07):
to be renewed as well.
Speaker 1 (18:09):
But it takes some dedication, and it takes some oneness
with God.
Speaker 3 (18:15):
You can't do this by yourself, your Bible tells us
even for sake, not the assembling of yourselves together even
as the matter of some el Don't you know that
since COVID there are those that still won't come to church.
They use it as an excuse. Hallelujah. I might get sick.
(18:35):
Don't you know God is a healer. When they got
sick in Jesus' time, they didn't run from him, they
ran to it. I don't see what this ideology is
now as soon as we get sick, we run from
the church. Hallelujah. He said for sake. The Bible says
for sake, not the assembling of yourself. It's for edification.
Speaker 1 (18:57):
If you didn't know you could get healed East when
you go, oh, you'll know that you can get here.
Speaker 3 (19:01):
If you didn't know that God how the propos shop
can change your mind and deliver you out of your
formal way to break those generational curses, you would knowing
that you go and be with around somebody that has
experienced the same thing, that has learned how to pull
the beam out of their own eye, and now they
(19:23):
see clearly enough to help you pull the mote out
of yours. As we read this morning, there's a spirit
of stubbornness.
Speaker 1 (19:33):
Halleljah.
Speaker 3 (19:35):
Stubbornness and self willed and envious. That is in the children, hallelujah.
In the world today, I'm saying like that, and rather
than subject thyself to being corrected by the spirit of
the Living God, we have decided in many cases because
(19:58):
that's why sinners in the world to reject the truth.
That's what Jesus said, you didn't want any of the truth.
The Bible states in many places throughout the Old Testament,
God said you didn't want any of me. Many times
He came to his own many times through profits, hollered
(20:18):
through judges to set up correction. And just like a
child will, they are corrected for a moment, as long
as they're in your sight and they find grace in
your in your eyes again, as long as you start smiling,
you start smiling at them again and giving what they want.
Speaker 1 (20:36):
Then they go right back to what that wicked ways.
Speaker 3 (20:41):
And they learn this behavior from somewhere. Hello, somebody, Hello,
we're not we are not not guilty. Hallelujah. We can't
do things our way, we can't do things our way.
Then say I am in Christ.
Speaker 1 (21:03):
You can't do that. That would be to make Christ
a liar. The Bible just got through saying that.
Speaker 3 (21:13):
But unto everyone of us has given grace according to
the measure of the gift of Christ. Now if he's
in us, and hallelujah, we have to abord that which
is evil and cleave to that which is good, and
restrain ourselves hallelujah for burying one another and cleave to
(21:38):
long suffering and meekness and loneliness. And we don't operate
in these things. Wait a minute, let me uh, let
me uh, let me give myself a.
Speaker 1 (21:50):
Give you a uh.
Speaker 3 (21:54):
Understanding of what I just said. To operate in those things,
you have to work at it. They're not going to
come easily.
Speaker 1 (22:06):
Now. There have been those that have.
Speaker 3 (22:08):
Been transformed immediately, but for a lot of us it
takes a work at it.
Speaker 1 (22:15):
You have to work at those things. Hallelujah.
Speaker 3 (22:19):
Changing your behavior, changing your conversation, changing your attitude. You
have to be constantly aware of what you're doing. And
God took care of that too, like he told Joshua,
like she tells us in the New Testament, study to
show yourself a proove unto God. He told Joshua, keep
(22:39):
your eye in this book day and night, so you
can be successful. Hallelujah, Glory to God. Now through Christ
we have the spirit of life. Through Christ, we have
the spirit because we don't want we can't make him
a liar, so he's lying or we aligned.
Speaker 1 (23:02):
We're living in a line. And Matthew tells us that
men will be deceivers of themselves, and.
Speaker 3 (23:10):
War unto the man that finds out his error in judgment,
Woe unto the man a woman who finds out his
error in judgment. Hallelujah the day and that he knocks
on your heart, don't harden it. When the spirit of
(23:33):
truth comes at you and is trying to is giving
you a gift. The Bible says, this is why we
were yet sinners. Christ died for the young God. He
commendeth his love. That word commendeth means to present. He
presented his love to us in the form of a
son that became the doer of the word Hallelijah, that
(23:56):
became fleshed and dwelt among us. And we beheld his glory,
that of the only begotten of the Father, full of
grace and truth. Now through Moses came the Law, but
through Christ came grace and truth. The Law was presented
to us to expose the sin that is in us,
(24:18):
thou shalt not kill.
Speaker 1 (24:20):
It does not just mean that I'm pulling a gun
on you or stabbing you. If I kill your character,
if I talk about.
Speaker 3 (24:29):
You behind your back. The Bible says, speak evil of
what of no man? But it's the truth, pastor, it's
the truth. It's not always expedient to say a thing.
It may be the truth. But what do What would
(24:52):
you do or want someone to do for you? Would
you want them to spill the beans about you? Or
would you want them to.
Speaker 1 (24:58):
Pray for you?
Speaker 3 (25:03):
Rather than going around town and telling everybody about my
bad behavior.
Speaker 1 (25:08):
Pray for me. Men should always pray and not faith.
Pray ye one for the other.
Speaker 3 (25:15):
Don't be in such a hurry to throw one another
under the bus, even if you do want is driving,
even if between you and that person, it don't have
to be anybody else around. Don't be so ready to
Don't be in such a hurry to be right. Learn
(25:37):
to be right just in God. I just, I just
I'm writing what I'm saying. You might be right, but
it's not gonna help that soul. Remember we'll want in God.
And remember Paul Saw who became Paul had to go
to the Ribian desert and spend time with Jesus to
(26:00):
learn this. Hallelujah. Through Christ, we have the spirit of life.
Romans eight and two says this, for the law of
the spirit of life in Christ, Jesus has made me
free from the law of sin and death. Remember the
(26:25):
law came through Moses, and it brought death. Thout shalt
not commit adultery. Douts shalt not steal, thut shalt not.
Speaker 1 (26:38):
Uh. What's the other one?
Speaker 3 (26:41):
Thou shalt not cover thy neighbor's wife, Thou shalt honor
thy mother and father, that thy day may be long upon,
and so on and so on and so on. Somewhere
down the line, you broke one of them. And if
you broke one, you broke them all. Hallelujah.
Speaker 1 (26:59):
So the law came to expose to you. You know what.
Let me step back right here. Some people are Let
will allow.
Speaker 3 (27:09):
Their circumstances and situations in their life stop them from
reading or studying this word. I'm gonna say it. I'm
gonna say it again, over and over. You got twenty
four hours in a day, twenty four hours and twenty
four hours in the day, twenty four hours in the day,
and you can't find time to study with God for
(27:32):
a few of those few minutes of those hours. Something's
wrong with that picture. Something is wrong with that picture
in that David and the Bible said that I saw
I came to him early in the morning. Why he
may be found. You know what's good about that? The
phone's usually not ringing early in the morning. Seek him early,
(27:56):
and then there's a lot at the time, there's no disturbances,
So you got some quality time to spend with God. Yes,
you want to wake up early, and best way to
accomplish that is if you want to go up early,
go to bed early. Hello, somebody. It's vanity to wake
(28:18):
up early and go to bed late. It is in
vain because you end up being restless, Hello, rest less.
And then you wonder why you're not cranky, I mean,
not why you're not why you are cranky, and all
those other attributes.
Speaker 1 (28:38):
They go along with that.
Speaker 3 (28:40):
But the time is there, but we have to put
forth the effort to get it. And what I'm saying
is when you do those things, you know what the
law is. You know what the law is, and then
when you know what the lawyers, you know what to
avoid Every one of you out there that is over
to seven sixteen years old and then have a driver license.
(29:01):
You know that the national speed limit for driving on
any highway and most of the time it's fifty.
Speaker 1 (29:06):
Five miles an hour. Hello.
Speaker 3 (29:10):
And yet and still we are put an unwritten law
into our memory. I can go at least eight miles
over the speed limit and I won't get stopped. You
can't do that everywhere. Some places you can.
Speaker 1 (29:27):
But guess what, It's still against the law. It's still
against the law. And guess what.
Speaker 3 (29:37):
God said, obey the law of the land. And guess
what he all said said. Policemen are ministers of the law.
So they are ministers, and they are there for those
that break the law. We're talking about being one with God,
(30:00):
and these are things that we do every day, and
we sometimes we don't pay any mind to them. And
we say we are one with God. And how you
and one with God? When you walking outside the will
of God? That's oxi molin. That don't make sense. Verse
(30:20):
sixteen of the same chapter. That was verse chapter eight,
verse two. Now this is chapter eight, verse sixteen. The
spirit it self buried witness with our spirits that we
are children of God.
Speaker 1 (30:34):
Who is he talking about? The Holy Spirit? Okay, let
me help you here.
Speaker 3 (30:43):
In the beginning, when God created man out of the
dust of the earth, that the Bible says, a mist
came up from the earth, and God formed man out
of the dust of the earth. And it said that
God breathing to man's nostrils, a man became a living soul. Okay,
(31:04):
when he breathed into it, he breathing to man his spirit.
Speaker 1 (31:09):
He began to live.
Speaker 2 (31:10):
Right.
Speaker 3 (31:11):
But when the lie man began goss. Before that, when
man with the limbus, God was teaching or allowing Adam
to name the animals and everything that had been created,
he was participating in creation.
Speaker 1 (31:27):
He was participating.
Speaker 3 (31:29):
But when the lie came in to even and Adam
disobeyed God, the lie came in and the truth was rejected.
Speaker 1 (31:42):
Hallelujah. The truth was rejected for the lie. Okay. Now
death comes in separation from God.
Speaker 3 (31:55):
God kich Adam and Eve out of the garden of
even Eden, hallelujah. But he still loves them. So down
through forty two generations he sends his son Jesus Christ
to redeem man. Hallelujah, Hallujah. So now that the spirit
(32:15):
of life that was rejected now comes again through Christ
Jesus to us.
Speaker 1 (32:23):
And that spirit that was breathing to man, God didn't
take it away.
Speaker 3 (32:28):
He just lies dormant in man, unlearned because he cannot
receive us the truth, unlearned because he cannot. He's weakened
because he is living under the lie, under the law.
Now they came through Moses. Now the flesh is dying.
Now the Holy Spirit comes through Christ Jesus, the spirit
(32:52):
of life that is in Christ, and he ministers to
our spirit. That's why she's central that you studied. That's
why he sent you that you are edified. You build
up your spirit, man, you get stronger and strong and stronger.
That's what Paul was talking about in chapter seven. In
chapter eight of Romans, he said, now, hallelujah, my spirit.
(33:15):
Spirit bears with the spirit of God. He said, the
same spirit that raised up Jesus from the dead will
also raise you up from your dead works.
Speaker 1 (33:27):
It will quick quicken your members.
Speaker 3 (33:30):
You now not only have the authority, but you will
have the strength to carry out the will of God.
Why because you will be in agreement with God oneness.
When you learn to be in agreement with God and
not reject the truth. You become one with God.
Speaker 1 (33:52):
Hallelujah.
Speaker 3 (33:54):
And you have the authority through Christ Jesus to bring
like Paul said, bring yourself under subjection unto the will
of God. Hallelujah. Now go to the First Corinthians. Listen
when he had one Corinthians sixty seventeen.
Speaker 1 (34:13):
You don't have to go.
Speaker 3 (34:13):
I'm gonna read this real quick, he said. But he
that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit.
Speaker 1 (34:26):
The Word. The Word came and healed them all is
full of life.
Speaker 3 (34:34):
John sixth sixty three said, the words that I speak,
they are both life and they are spirits. John sixth
sixty three said, these words that Jesus said, Jesus said,
he said, read. Jesus said that these words that I speak,
they are both life and they are spirits. Hallelujah. This
(34:59):
is through Christ. We become one through the Word of God.
Now go jump over. I got another scripture for you
First Corinthians, chapter twelve thirteen. And now this is the
way he talks about the body of Christ chapter twelve thirteen.
For by one Spirit, the Holy Spirit, as the capitals are,
(35:20):
we all baptized into one body.
Speaker 1 (35:24):
See, it is the Holy Spirit that.
Speaker 3 (35:27):
Breathes into your individual spirits, minds, my wife, my cousins,
my brothers, my sisters, my brother in laws, my neighbors,
my friends. It is the Holy Spirit that breathes into
my spirit and brings it quickens it.
Speaker 1 (35:45):
How is it?
Speaker 3 (35:46):
For by one spirit are we all baptized into what
one body? Whether we be Jews are Gentiles, they don't
make no different, Black makes it. Don't make no difference
for all that s income short of the glory of God.
God is no respect of a person. Hallelujah.
Speaker 1 (36:09):
Whether we be bound or free, and don't make a difference.
Speaker 3 (36:13):
That shold you how powerful the spirit is that if
we allow him to do, but God send him to do,
too many times we cut him off when he's got
liberation in our hands. The Bible said ye shall know
the truth, and the truth will make you free. It
didn't say sit you free. God is not asking hallelujah.
(36:35):
When Jesus comes into your life, the spirit of life
is come that will make you free. No devil in
hell and no person on this earth can stop the
Spirit of truth from doing what God.
Speaker 1 (36:50):
Sind it to do. If you allow it to.
Speaker 3 (36:54):
Glory to God. Whether it be whether we be bound
or free, and have been all made, we have all
been made.
Speaker 1 (37:04):
To drink.
Speaker 3 (37:06):
Into one spirit. We've been all made to drink into
one spirit. I hope y'all getting this. Told me the
first chime. Chapter seven, I'm giving you some scun Somebody
asked me for a scriptures. I'm giving you the scriptures
that I preach from haul Elujah because I want you
(37:30):
to see this for yourself. Listen, we just got to
talking about we have all been made to drink from
this one spirit. Chapter seven. Go down to verse thirty seven.
(37:50):
John Saint John. Chapter seven, Verse thirty seven.
Speaker 1 (37:55):
Listen.
Speaker 3 (37:56):
He said, we've been all been made to drink from
this spirit capital s the Holy Spirit, the spirit of
truth that Jesus said, we were not able to receive
it one time.
Speaker 1 (38:07):
He says this.
Speaker 3 (38:08):
In the last day, that great day of the Feast,
Jesus stood and cried listen, saying, if any man thirst,
let him come unto me and drink.
Speaker 1 (38:29):
God.
Speaker 3 (38:30):
You can't do this no other way. We're talking about
being one. You gotta go through Christ to drink from
this fountain.
Speaker 1 (38:36):
Hallelujah. First thirty eight.
Speaker 3 (38:38):
He that believeth on me, as the scripture has said,
out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.
Speaker 1 (38:50):
Look at God thirty nine.
Speaker 3 (38:53):
But this spake he of what the spirit hallelujah, they
that believed on him should receive. For the Holy Ghost
was not yet given because that Jesus was not yet glorified.
Speaker 1 (39:12):
What is he saying?
Speaker 3 (39:14):
As long as Jesus was there with them, he was
the comforter. He spoke on in those teams that the
Father told him. He only did those teams that the
Father gave him to do.
Speaker 1 (39:29):
He didn't. He wasn't what she watched it about it
he did, wasn't in this day or that day.
Speaker 3 (39:35):
He even told his disciples, he said, I must depart
from you for a while, for the enemy cometh.
Speaker 1 (39:43):
And he had what nothing in me, my God.
Speaker 3 (39:47):
From glory, hallelujah, Hallelijah. And when he ascended, he was glorified, hallelujah.
Then go back with me, Go back now, circle back
to First Corinthians twelve. Let's certain, okay, I want to
(40:07):
go over this with you again. I want to show
I'm trying to show us whether one that's being one
with God is more of a benefit than we sitting
out there by ourselves. I'm talking about spiritual growth. I'm
talking about spiritual revelations. I'm talking about being able to
(40:29):
do that versus due to the right thing versus the
wrong thing, and saying it's right.
Speaker 1 (40:36):
Holler.
Speaker 3 (40:37):
Verse Chapter twelve, First Coristian Chapter twelve, Verse thirteen and fourteen.
For by one spirit all we all baptize into one body,
whether we are Jews or Gentiles, whether we bound or free,
have and have been all made to drink from drink
into one spirit. This next verse for the body is
(41:00):
not one body but many. We're not just one body.
We are many, but we walk in oneness.
Speaker 1 (41:12):
Come on, now.
Speaker 3 (41:14):
We have the same mind. We shall be agreeing with
one another. You know what I found out this When
I speak scripture and you speak scripture, and we allow
the Holy Spirit to guide us into the truth, we
will come to the same conclusion. But your job is
(41:37):
different from mine. You the hand and I'm the foot,
and we will both end up the same place. Hello, somebody,
I'm doing the job that God give me the doing.
You doing the job to give you and do so
we can arrive at the same place. Case in point,
marriage Marriage is an institution. Right, it's a covenant. It's
(42:01):
a covenant between God and the couple.
Speaker 2 (42:03):
Right.
Speaker 3 (42:05):
Okay, I was in the class one time and they
said it's like a pyramid. Christ said, the pinnacle, and
you got She got a relationship with God. I got
a relationship with God. But both our relationships are through
Christ Jesus with God.
Speaker 1 (42:22):
Right.
Speaker 3 (42:23):
And so the closer I get to God, the closer
she gets to God. The closer we come together. It's
the same way with any relationship, y'all. The closer I
get to God. When I have a situation with you
and I go to God on how to resilve it.
(42:45):
And you have a situation where and I go to God,
we get closer because God is gonna give us the answer,
the same answer, hallelujah, the answer that suits you and
the answer that suits me. Where he said, well, Ronnie,
you need to get rid of this. He's gonna say,
well you need to get rid of that. And then
once you shed that, he said, left side. Every waiting
to sin, they do it so Eaven beset you. It
(43:06):
will keep you from reaching that pinnacle. When we want
to hold on the things, and Paul told us, he said,
old things that's my old life are passed away?
Speaker 1 (43:19):
All things? What all all things?
Speaker 3 (43:25):
You mean?
Speaker 1 (43:25):
I can't take this and that and that and this
with me?
Speaker 3 (43:30):
All things what are become new? The Old Testament said
I would do a new thing.
Speaker 1 (43:41):
Hallelujah. How many y'all like to see some new clothes? Hello?
When you get a new parent duds, you get some
new gear? How often do you wear the old gear? Hello?
It is end up getting pushed back to the back
(44:02):
of the closet. Am I right about it? Somebody?
Speaker 3 (44:06):
And then you look in there and say, I haven't
wore this whole thing. I don't even know why I
still got it. Come on now, and we still want
to say, well, it's mine, I want to keep it
in the closet, Give it away, Give it away.
Speaker 1 (44:27):
Hallelujah. Glory to God. For the body is not one
but many, not one member, but many, many many. Glory
to God.
Speaker 3 (44:41):
And this is the last set I'm gonna give you
right here, John seventeen, Now, this is what Jesus prays
for our oneness. He knew how impotant Jesus now talks
about the last stage of playing for us, because he's
getting ready to go to the cross.
Speaker 1 (45:03):
He's getting ready to be glorified.
Speaker 3 (45:05):
Why he's getting ready to be glorified because he is
given the word to his disciples.
Speaker 1 (45:12):
In other words, he's done what the Father told him
to do.
Speaker 3 (45:16):
All right, Glorified means to be illuminated, means to be
made aware of Now he's complete completely the Jah.
Speaker 1 (45:25):
So God is completely aware that my son did what
I told him to do. Hallelujah.
Speaker 3 (45:31):
So now he's glorified, and he's given the word to
his disciples. Now he prays for his disciples. Go down
to verse nine. He's gonna take a snippet out this prayer.
This is a snippet Verse nine, three eleven he said,
talking to his father, he said, I pray for them,
(45:53):
talking about us, I pray not for the world, but
for them with thou hast given me. For they are dying.
They belong to you God, Loah, for all mine or dying.
So everything that God has put in his hand he
(46:15):
still believed. He still said, God, this belongs to you.
I am just a steward wool. Somebody need to hear
that I'm just a steward over.
Speaker 4 (46:25):
That them all dying on mind and dying all mind
and dying all mind, all mine are dying and dying
on mind.
Speaker 1 (46:38):
And I am glorified in them.
Speaker 3 (46:41):
In other words, when they minister, when they come forth,
they project him. They are one with him. They see
the character of God in him. They see the Father
in themselves. Because they no longer acting like they used
to act. They're no longer talking like they used to talk.
They're no longer walking in the same.
Speaker 1 (47:03):
Old way like they used to it.
Speaker 3 (47:05):
Now they're walking in one's with one another, having the
same mind Hallelujah, but different members Matthew, Mark Luke and
John Andrew Peter.
Speaker 1 (47:21):
Having a mind of Christ in them go with to
God and the last verse. And now Jesus says, and
now I am no more in the world, but these
are in the world, and I come to Thee.
Speaker 3 (47:41):
Now right now, he's saying, I'm getting ready to come
to you, Father, and the Holy Ghost is getting ready
to come down here. And I'm getting ready to sit
at your right hand to the seed for these that
you have given me. Hallelujah. I've come to THEE, Holy Father.
Keep thou thine own name, Hallelujah. Those who keep thou
(48:06):
through excuse me, keep through thine own name. Those whom
thou hast given me keep through thine own name. We're
one with God. Thou hast given me.
Speaker 1 (48:25):
That they may be one as we are.
Speaker 3 (48:33):
We come in the name of Jesus Christ. Any of
you have experienced when you've been out in public and
somebody walkme in and say, are you a Christian? Are
you a minister? Yes, they could tell everybody the way
(48:59):
of your behad behavior by the things that you do.
So if that is the case, why do we wear
that oneness with God so loosely? When we're out in public.
Speaker 1 (49:13):
We want to be that.
Speaker 3 (49:15):
When we were around people of like faith, we want
to be that. But when we get to ourselves or
with one another one on one, we want to stray
away from that. We want to act ugly.
Speaker 1 (49:28):
Come on, y'all.
Speaker 3 (49:30):
God warned Israel about that. They did that when they
were in captain. We were just reading about it this morning.
When they were around the heathen, they picked up some wickedness,
some wicked ways, and pretty soon they didn't have to
be oppressed by their captors because they were oppressing one another.
(49:53):
They took the habits and the traditions and the behaviors
of other nations, the Heathen nations, and they applied it to.
Speaker 1 (49:59):
Their own people.
Speaker 3 (50:03):
I know we talk about, have talked about in the
pastor slave master and slavery and whatnot.
Speaker 1 (50:08):
What did the slave master do? He pick out one
that's among you.
Speaker 3 (50:15):
To rule over you. Hello, that's the devil all over again.
And as he said, he's not just talking to the
Jews or the Greeks.
Speaker 1 (50:27):
But this is for all. This doesn't just happen to Blats.
Speaker 3 (50:31):
This doesn't just happen to Latinos, This doesn't just happen
to a Chinese, This doesn't just happen to whites. Every
race have been held in slavery in some way kind
of fashion of form by.
Speaker 5 (50:45):
Their own people and God people are no different, no different.
Speaker 3 (50:58):
Where do we get off thinking that we have a
different sort of circumstances that will come our way? All
have shain You come short of the glory of God.
Many are the affliction of the rights, But God deliver
us out of them all oneness.
Speaker 1 (51:15):
Become one with God, he who endure till the end
shall be saved. Hallelujah.
Speaker 3 (51:26):
Become one with God. Become one with God and fulfill
your purpose in life. Let's pray Father, in the name
of Jesus. Lord, we thank you, we praise you, will
lift you up. The word that we've heard today. Lord,
I myself I receive it, hallelujah. Even I don't depend
(51:48):
on me to hold.
Speaker 2 (51:50):
On to it.
Speaker 3 (51:50):
I ask you to help me. And likewise, Lord, I
ask you to help thieves that have heard it and
they want to receive it unto themselves, so they can
be we all become become doers of the word. Hallelujah,
that we can all become many members but one, Hallelujah.
Speaker 1 (52:08):
Through Christ Jesus. We asked this in Jesus' name.
Speaker 2 (52:13):
Amen.
Speaker 3 (52:14):
Now, if anybody out there who's not savor, who wants
to be saved or reclaimed, hallelujah. The Bible said, if
you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus Christ, and
believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead,
doubts shall be saved. Now, if anybody that needs to
be reclaimed, all you got to do is ask for
forgiveness of your sins. And one thing that is essential
(52:36):
about any of us. Ask God to reveal to you
those things that need to be changed. Matter of fact,
that's one of the purposes of the Holygos. As you
walk with him or led by him, he will show
you yourself. You'll be so busy working on yourself that
you're gonna have time to see mess with other people's lives.
Matter of fact, he'll use your demonstration of how life
(52:58):
should be lived to witnesses somebody else that need help.
And then and by doing so, you wanted to say
a word. It's just the witness of Christ in you
that will speak values to people. Why because the Bible
says this that men love darkness rather than life, because
(53:18):
their deeds were exposed, that were revealed. And when somebody
here see you doing right versus wrong, it fixes their spirit.
And the first thing they want to do is lash
out at you. Because but you don't have to receive
that because you are the righteousness of God. So if
(53:41):
anyone wants to receive Jesus Christ as their Lord and
savior or be redeemed, just repeat after me, Father, forgive.
Speaker 1 (53:54):
Me for my sins. I asked you to come into
my heart and be my Lord and savior. I believe
that Jesus is your son, and I believe that he
died on the cross from me, and I believe that
in three days, Lord, he was raised up from the
dead by the spirit, the Holy Spirit, the spirit of life,
(54:18):
and that that same spirit will quicken my members and
raise me up from dead works. In the name of
Jesus and Father, give me of your spirit so I
can be a witness, a witness of you forse in
Jesus' name, I pray man and Amen.
Speaker 3 (54:38):
If you have praised this prayer, the Bible says, if
you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus Christ, and
believe in your heart that God raised it from the dead,
doubts shall be saved.
Speaker 1 (54:47):
You got to believe it now. When you have done
this believing, don't think that you're not going to go
through things.
Speaker 2 (54:54):
You are.
Speaker 3 (54:55):
But now you have the ability or you have the
authority to call on the name Jesus to help you
in times of trouble and get into a spirit led,
Bible based church so.
Speaker 1 (55:11):
God can teach you how to live and teach.
Speaker 3 (55:14):
Instruct you and help you to be transformed in your
mind and create a clean heart in you so He
can use you more effectively. Now say that he can't
use you, but he wants to use us more effectively.
He wants us to become His workmanship to do the
works that He has already created for you to do. Hallelujah, hallelujah,
(55:37):

Station on your Internet and iHeartRadio and other forms of
(01:49):
media that we are attempting to get the Word of
God out on. It's about God's word being put out there,
but it's about souls being saved. Is about men becoming
disciples of God and not disciples of men. For we
know and we believe that these are the last and
(02:10):
evil days. We see the science right down in front
of our faces. We read our Bible, and we see
the things that are coming that are happening, calamities. The
earth is groaning and travailing, waiting eagerly for the revealing
of the sons of God because it had been subjected
(02:30):
to the corruption of sin innocently. So we thank God
for you, and we thank God for this ministry. This
is the Word of life John one fourteen Church. And
the Word became flesh and d wealth among us. And
we be held in glory that of the only be Godden,
of the Father, full of grace and truth. And I'm
(02:54):
pastor writing hooks, Well, we thank God again for each
of you and those that are in our zoom audience,
although that belong to our church from New York to
Indiana to Oklahoma and other parts of the United States, Pittsburgh,
we thank God for each of you on today. Holler
(03:16):
in lu Yah and in Jamaica to God be the glory.
All right, let's say a word of prayer and then
we're going to get into the Word of God Father
in Heaven. Hollowed be thy name, holloweth be thy name,
Thy Kingdom.
Speaker 2 (03:32):
Come.
Speaker 3 (03:33):
Thine will be done in earth, even as it is
in Heaven. Father, as you make your abode in this
earth and vessel. Lord, we ask Lord that you help us,
help me to move aside, and allow the Holy Spirit,
the Spirit of truth, to speak to your people. You
(03:54):
have blessed them with the ear, but bless them with
the ear to hear. But the spirit is saying, and
the heart to receive it. Even as the scales fell
off of the eyes of Saul and he became Paul,
so let the scales fall off of our eyes, as
Matthew said, that we may see clearly, Hallelujah, that we
may be helped, that we may help someone else. Hallelujah.
(04:18):
We know your word will not return void. We know
that it will go out with power. Lord, but Lord,
help us not to reject it. In the name of Jesus.
And we be so careful to give you all the
glory then and the praise, for the enemy is defeated,
he is already rebuked. And we thank you and give
you jaw and give you glory and praise. Our Father
(04:39):
asks that you forgive us our truspasses.
Speaker 1 (04:43):
Every seeing.
Speaker 3 (04:44):
Every form of unrighteousness that we've committed on is yet
still in us.
Speaker 1 (04:50):
Purge us from it, and that son Jesus name, we
do pray.
Speaker 3 (04:53):
Amen and amen, excuse me, all right, you are we
are going to talk about it is essential in your
lives and my life as a pastor, one that is
called after God's own heart to feed his flock with
(05:16):
knowledge and understanding that you know that God is soon
to come, but he expects to find faith in the earth,
and that he expects to find his bride without spot
or wrinkle or any such thing. Now knowing that the
scripture says that faith only work is by love. So
(05:40):
the first fruit of the spirit that is given to
us is love, and God is love. Right, So it
takes God to operate the faith that we need to
produce to other attributes or the other segments of the
fruit joy, peace, long suffering, forgiveness, long self impatience, meetness, kindness, gentleness,
(06:05):
and all those things. It takes the love of God
to produce those things because we cannot do them ourselves.
We cannot, so we need God. Jesus even states this
in the Book of John. He said, it's not me
to do it to work, but my Father that is
(06:26):
in me. Yeah, if you had known me, you would
have known the Father. Glory to God. So let's jump
into the word on today. We're going to Ephesians chapter four.
Ephesians chapter four I like for you to follow along
with me as much as possible. But main thing is
that I've been told is I'm going to give you
(06:48):
the scriptures so you can follow at your leisure. The
main thing is that you hear what is being said.
Write down these scriptures though, and if you can follow
and follow, but make sure you them or that you're
right now in the future going forth, I will try
to make sure that I do this because it's essential
that you uh that you are able to choose who
(07:12):
you're going to serve yourself or God. Okay, we're in
Phesians chapter four. Now we started in verse one. But
before I start, my title or the title that is
given to me to minister to you all is to
become one in God. Become one in God, become one
(07:46):
in God.
Speaker 1 (07:49):
Ephesians chapter four, verse.
Speaker 3 (07:51):
One through seven, Paul talking. I, therefore, the prisoner of
the Lord, beseech you that she walk worthy of the vocation.
Now remember Paul used to be named Saul, and he
(08:12):
was a persecutor of the church. He was knocked off
of his beast and approached by Jesus. Okay, and he
was converted on the Damascus road. And he became Paul. Now,
the Bible says that further on in the scriptures that
(08:36):
after his experience on straight Street and the scales fell
off of his eyes, he went into the Arabian desert
to be taught of the Lord. In other words, he
became an apostle out of due season, meaning that he
was not with Jesus originally, but he was taught by Jesus.
Glory to God, hallelujah. And to further go into this,
(09:02):
I need you to know that he was once like us, hallelujah.
But now he says, beseech you, the Lord, beseech you
that you want worthy of the vocation or the purpose
or the job. Hollow wherewith ye are called now that
(09:26):
we are called out of that former state of mind,
that former state of being who you were. Now you
have a calling on your life. Now you have a
purpose in life. Hallelujah. Remember we're talking about becoming one. Hallelujah.
Speaker 1 (09:45):
Verse two. With all listen to.
Speaker 3 (09:47):
This, with all loneliness, meekness, with long suffering for bearing
one another, love, loneliness. We have to come out of ourselves.
(10:09):
Stop letting it be all about you. Come out of ourselves.
Now be so swift that.
Speaker 1 (10:18):
Have something to say, but think about what the Lord
has given you. Meekness meat does not mean you're weak.
It just means that you abstain. You're reserved.
Speaker 3 (10:32):
Okay, long suffering, not just patient, but long suffering, able
to stand the test, able to endure, because we know
those who endure shall be saved.
Speaker 1 (10:47):
And forbearing. Now this word forbearing.
Speaker 3 (10:52):
Hallelujah, means to restrain or refrain from in hallelujh refrain
for burying one another in love, forbearing a refrain from
having the same behavior or having the same old conversations
(11:13):
with one another. Change your behavior with one another. This
is how you show us true love. Jesus said this.
If you love me, keep my commandments. If you love me,
love your neighbor. Okay, as yourself. So there are certain
things you don't like being said to you, So be
careful with your words how you approach one another.
Speaker 1 (11:36):
Hallelujah.
Speaker 3 (11:37):
And this is an ongoing process that we are called
to adhere ourselves to me as well, every day I
have to subm like Paul. I have to submit myself
under the mighty hand of God and allow.
Speaker 1 (11:53):
Myself to be guided into the truth by the spirit.
Speaker 3 (12:00):
Verse three, endeavoring, which means to try hard, endeavoring to
keep the unity Hallelujah, the unity, Hallelujah of love, Hallelujah,
(12:21):
Lord to God. Trying to keep the unity of love.
That is the unity, the oneness, the unity of the spirit,
the unity of the Spirit, trying to keep the unity
of earnestly endeavoring, trying hard to keep the unity of
(12:41):
the Spirit. And that just simply means that staying in
the spirit, not wavering, not taking an opportunity to say
what you want to say, or do what you want
to do, or even think what you want to think,
but always holding yourself into subjection. Hallelujah, of whose prays,
if not nothing else, but whose presence you're in, And
(13:03):
that is God. You're in the presence of God, because
you are. Your body is a temple of the Holy Ghost, hallelujah.
Speaker 1 (13:13):
Verse four. There is one body, one spirit.
Speaker 3 (13:18):
Even ye are, even as ye are called in one
hope of your calling. Now your calling is what to
be disciples of God, to be followers of God, to
be followers of Christ. Rather be follows of Christ and
do the things that Christ did. Christ said this the
(13:39):
worst that I do you shall do also and greater works.
Why because I go to my father and pray for you,
He prayed for us, that we are equipped for every
good work. Paul tells us in First Timothy three sixteen
that all scripture is good for reproof, correction, hallow, re instructions,
(14:02):
and righteousness, that we might be thoroughly equipped for what
every good work. Why because we are God's work with ship.
It is God that do it the work through us. Hallelujah,
Glory to God. Verse five. One Lord, one faith, one baptism,
one God and Father of us, all the oneness of God,
(14:26):
the wonness of God, Hallelujah, who is above all and
through all, and in all verse seven. But unto every
one of us is given grace. Now we need this grace,
this favor of God, because and Paul discovers within us
(14:49):
in verse seven of Romans, that there's nothing good that
dwelleth in the flesh. He finds that there is an
evil desire that in our members. James called it that.
James says this, that we are drawn away because of
our own luss and we enticed.
Speaker 1 (15:10):
These are our.
Speaker 3 (15:11):
Own wicked ways. He tells us to turn from our
wicked ways. Now we can blame it, as we discussed
in our Sunday school lesson, we can blame it on
our forefathers wife. Just like my daddy, I cuse just
like my daddy. I drank just like my daddy. I
swear just like my mama. Okay. Or I'm like this
(15:32):
because my daddy did this to my mama, did that
to me, or they didn't do this for me and
they didn't do that. We can play the blame game
all we want to. But God brings to us a
new way. He said, do you in other words, do
you want to stay the same or do you want
to come out of that? If you want to come
(15:53):
out of that, stop complaining and follow me.
Speaker 1 (15:55):
Go over to God. But until every one of us.
Speaker 3 (15:59):
Is given grace according to the measure of the gift
of Christ, according to the measure.
Speaker 1 (16:09):
Of the gift of Christ, how much of Christ exists
in you?
Speaker 3 (16:19):
The word Christ means the chosen one, the anointed one Christ, hallelujah,
the anointed one. The word of God is anointed Jesus Christ,
the word anointed. How much of that word is hidden
in your heart?
Speaker 1 (16:40):
David said.
Speaker 3 (16:41):
David said that I might not sin against theve Why
because we do have a will, and we can choose
to reject the will of God. Case in point, this
is one of my friend Pastor Adams to use Chapter
(17:02):
five of Matthew. I believe it first forty three or
forty four. He said to two lovers to do this,
Love your enemy, bless them that, bless them that curse you.
Do good to them that don't good, Do good to you.
Pray for them that despitefully use you, and say all
(17:24):
matter of evil against you, saying, see there was in
the flesh. Those are some hard things to do because
we naturally, we naturally want to blame them, We naturally
want to blame one another, We naturally want to find
(17:45):
our comfort zone rather than deal with the fact that
there's some work in me that needs to be done,
not just in me, but in my heart and in
my mind. My mind has to be transformed, my heart
has to be renewed, and the spirit within me has
(18:07):
to be renewed as well.
Speaker 1 (18:09):
But it takes some dedication, and it takes some oneness
with God.
Speaker 3 (18:15):
You can't do this by yourself, your Bible tells us
even for sake, not the assembling of yourselves together even
as the matter of some el Don't you know that
since COVID there are those that still won't come to church.
They use it as an excuse. Hallelujah. I might get sick.
(18:35):
Don't you know God is a healer. When they got
sick in Jesus' time, they didn't run from him, they
ran to it. I don't see what this ideology is
now as soon as we get sick, we run from
the church. Hallelujah. He said for sake. The Bible says
for sake, not the assembling of yourself. It's for edification.
Speaker 1 (18:57):
If you didn't know you could get healed East when
you go, oh, you'll know that you can get here.
Speaker 3 (19:01):
If you didn't know that God how the propos shop
can change your mind and deliver you out of your
formal way to break those generational curses, you would knowing
that you go and be with around somebody that has
experienced the same thing, that has learned how to pull
the beam out of their own eye, and now they
(19:23):
see clearly enough to help you pull the mote out
of yours. As we read this morning, there's a spirit
of stubbornness.
Speaker 1 (19:33):
Halleljah.
Speaker 3 (19:35):
Stubbornness and self willed and envious. That is in the children, hallelujah.
In the world today, I'm saying like that, and rather
than subject thyself to being corrected by the spirit of
the Living God, we have decided in many cases because
(19:58):
that's why sinners in the world to reject the truth.
That's what Jesus said, you didn't want any of the truth.
The Bible states in many places throughout the Old Testament,
God said you didn't want any of me. Many times
He came to his own many times through profits, hollered
(20:18):
through judges to set up correction. And just like a
child will, they are corrected for a moment, as long
as they're in your sight and they find grace in
your in your eyes again, as long as you start smiling,
you start smiling at them again and giving what they want.
Speaker 1 (20:36):
Then they go right back to what that wicked ways.
Speaker 3 (20:41):
And they learn this behavior from somewhere. Hello, somebody, Hello,
we're not we are not not guilty. Hallelujah. We can't
do things our way, we can't do things our way.
Then say I am in Christ.
Speaker 1 (21:03):
You can't do that. That would be to make Christ
a liar. The Bible just got through saying that.
Speaker 3 (21:13):
But unto everyone of us has given grace according to
the measure of the gift of Christ. Now if he's
in us, and hallelujah, we have to abord that which
is evil and cleave to that which is good, and
restrain ourselves hallelujah for burying one another and cleave to
(21:38):
long suffering and meekness and loneliness. And we don't operate
in these things. Wait a minute, let me uh, let
me uh, let me give myself a.
Speaker 1 (21:50):
Give you a uh.
Speaker 3 (21:54):
Understanding of what I just said. To operate in those things,
you have to work at it. They're not going to
come easily.
Speaker 1 (22:06):
Now. There have been those that have.
Speaker 3 (22:08):
Been transformed immediately, but for a lot of us it
takes a work at it.
Speaker 1 (22:15):
You have to work at those things. Hallelujah.
Speaker 3 (22:19):
Changing your behavior, changing your conversation, changing your attitude. You
have to be constantly aware of what you're doing. And
God took care of that too, like he told Joshua,
like she tells us in the New Testament, study to
show yourself a proove unto God. He told Joshua, keep
(22:39):
your eye in this book day and night, so you
can be successful. Hallelujah, Glory to God. Now through Christ
we have the spirit of life. Through Christ, we have
the spirit because we don't want we can't make him
a liar, so he's lying or we aligned.
Speaker 1 (23:02):
We're living in a line. And Matthew tells us that
men will be deceivers of themselves, and.
Speaker 3 (23:10):
War unto the man that finds out his error in judgment,
Woe unto the man a woman who finds out his
error in judgment. Hallelujah the day and that he knocks
on your heart, don't harden it. When the spirit of
(23:33):
truth comes at you and is trying to is giving
you a gift. The Bible says, this is why we
were yet sinners. Christ died for the young God. He
commendeth his love. That word commendeth means to present. He
presented his love to us in the form of a
son that became the doer of the word Hallelijah, that
(23:56):
became fleshed and dwelt among us. And we beheld his glory,
that of the only begotten of the Father, full of
grace and truth. Now through Moses came the Law, but
through Christ came grace and truth. The Law was presented
to us to expose the sin that is in us,
(24:18):
thou shalt not kill.
Speaker 1 (24:20):
It does not just mean that I'm pulling a gun
on you or stabbing you. If I kill your character,
if I talk about.
Speaker 3 (24:29):
You behind your back. The Bible says, speak evil of
what of no man? But it's the truth, pastor, it's
the truth. It's not always expedient to say a thing.
It may be the truth. But what do What would
(24:52):
you do or want someone to do for you? Would
you want them to spill the beans about you? Or
would you want them to.
Speaker 1 (24:58):
Pray for you?
Speaker 3 (25:03):
Rather than going around town and telling everybody about my
bad behavior.
Speaker 1 (25:08):
Pray for me. Men should always pray and not faith.
Pray ye one for the other.
Speaker 3 (25:15):
Don't be in such a hurry to throw one another
under the bus, even if you do want is driving,
even if between you and that person, it don't have
to be anybody else around. Don't be so ready to
Don't be in such a hurry to be right. Learn
(25:37):
to be right just in God. I just, I just
I'm writing what I'm saying. You might be right, but
it's not gonna help that soul. Remember we'll want in God.
And remember Paul Saw who became Paul had to go
to the Ribian desert and spend time with Jesus to
(26:00):
learn this. Hallelujah. Through Christ, we have the spirit of life.
Romans eight and two says this, for the law of
the spirit of life in Christ, Jesus has made me
free from the law of sin and death. Remember the
(26:25):
law came through Moses, and it brought death. Thout shalt
not commit adultery. Douts shalt not steal, thut shalt not.
Speaker 1 (26:38):
Uh. What's the other one?
Speaker 3 (26:41):
Thou shalt not cover thy neighbor's wife, Thou shalt honor
thy mother and father, that thy day may be long upon,
and so on and so on and so on. Somewhere
down the line, you broke one of them. And if
you broke one, you broke them all. Hallelujah.
Speaker 1 (26:59):
So the law came to expose to you. You know what.
Let me step back right here. Some people are Let
will allow.
Speaker 3 (27:09):
Their circumstances and situations in their life stop them from
reading or studying this word. I'm gonna say it. I'm
gonna say it again, over and over. You got twenty
four hours in a day, twenty four hours and twenty
four hours in the day, twenty four hours in the day,
and you can't find time to study with God for
(27:32):
a few of those few minutes of those hours. Something's
wrong with that picture. Something is wrong with that picture
in that David and the Bible said that I saw
I came to him early in the morning. Why he
may be found. You know what's good about that? The
phone's usually not ringing early in the morning. Seek him early,
(27:56):
and then there's a lot at the time, there's no disturbances,
So you got some quality time to spend with God. Yes,
you want to wake up early, and best way to
accomplish that is if you want to go up early,
go to bed early. Hello, somebody. It's vanity to wake
(28:18):
up early and go to bed late. It is in
vain because you end up being restless, Hello, rest less.
And then you wonder why you're not cranky, I mean,
not why you're not why you are cranky, and all
those other attributes.
Speaker 1 (28:38):
They go along with that.
Speaker 3 (28:40):
But the time is there, but we have to put
forth the effort to get it. And what I'm saying
is when you do those things, you know what the
law is. You know what the law is, and then
when you know what the lawyers, you know what to
avoid Every one of you out there that is over
to seven sixteen years old and then have a driver license.
(29:01):
You know that the national speed limit for driving on
any highway and most of the time it's fifty.
Speaker 1 (29:06):
Five miles an hour. Hello.
Speaker 3 (29:10):
And yet and still we are put an unwritten law
into our memory. I can go at least eight miles
over the speed limit and I won't get stopped. You
can't do that everywhere. Some places you can.
Speaker 1 (29:27):
But guess what, It's still against the law. It's still
against the law. And guess what.
Speaker 3 (29:37):
God said, obey the law of the land. And guess
what he all said said. Policemen are ministers of the law.
So they are ministers, and they are there for those
that break the law. We're talking about being one with God,
(30:00):
and these are things that we do every day, and
we sometimes we don't pay any mind to them. And
we say we are one with God. And how you
and one with God? When you walking outside the will
of God? That's oxi molin. That don't make sense. Verse
(30:20):
sixteen of the same chapter. That was verse chapter eight,
verse two. Now this is chapter eight, verse sixteen. The
spirit it self buried witness with our spirits that we
are children of God.
Speaker 1 (30:34):
Who is he talking about? The Holy Spirit? Okay, let
me help you here.
Speaker 3 (30:43):
In the beginning, when God created man out of the
dust of the earth, that the Bible says, a mist
came up from the earth, and God formed man out
of the dust of the earth. And it said that
God breathing to man's nostrils, a man became a living soul. Okay,
(31:04):
when he breathed into it, he breathing to man his spirit.
Speaker 1 (31:09):
He began to live.
Speaker 2 (31:10):
Right.
Speaker 3 (31:11):
But when the lie man began goss. Before that, when
man with the limbus, God was teaching or allowing Adam
to name the animals and everything that had been created,
he was participating in creation.
Speaker 1 (31:27):
He was participating.
Speaker 3 (31:29):
But when the lie came in to even and Adam
disobeyed God, the lie came in and the truth was rejected.
Speaker 1 (31:42):
Hallelujah. The truth was rejected for the lie. Okay. Now
death comes in separation from God.
Speaker 3 (31:55):
God kich Adam and Eve out of the garden of
even Eden, hallelujah. But he still loves them. So down
through forty two generations he sends his son Jesus Christ
to redeem man. Hallelujah, Hallujah. So now that the spirit
(32:15):
of life that was rejected now comes again through Christ
Jesus to us.
Speaker 1 (32:23):
And that spirit that was breathing to man, God didn't
take it away.
Speaker 3 (32:28):
He just lies dormant in man, unlearned because he cannot
receive us the truth, unlearned because he cannot. He's weakened
because he is living under the lie, under the law.
Now they came through Moses. Now the flesh is dying.
Now the Holy Spirit comes through Christ Jesus, the spirit
(32:52):
of life that is in Christ, and he ministers to
our spirit. That's why she's central that you studied. That's
why he sent you that you are edified. You build
up your spirit, man, you get stronger and strong and stronger.
That's what Paul was talking about in chapter seven. In
chapter eight of Romans, he said, now, hallelujah, my spirit.
(33:15):
Spirit bears with the spirit of God. He said, the
same spirit that raised up Jesus from the dead will
also raise you up from your dead works.
Speaker 1 (33:27):
It will quick quicken your members.
Speaker 3 (33:30):
You now not only have the authority, but you will
have the strength to carry out the will of God.
Why because you will be in agreement with God oneness.
When you learn to be in agreement with God and
not reject the truth. You become one with God.
Speaker 1 (33:52):
Hallelujah.
Speaker 3 (33:54):
And you have the authority through Christ Jesus to bring
like Paul said, bring yourself under subjection unto the will
of God. Hallelujah. Now go to the First Corinthians. Listen
when he had one Corinthians sixty seventeen.
Speaker 1 (34:13):
You don't have to go.
Speaker 3 (34:13):
I'm gonna read this real quick, he said. But he
that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit.
Speaker 1 (34:26):
The Word. The Word came and healed them all is
full of life.
Speaker 3 (34:34):
John sixth sixty three said, the words that I speak,
they are both life and they are spirits. John sixth
sixty three said, these words that Jesus said, Jesus said,
he said, read. Jesus said that these words that I speak,
they are both life and they are spirits. Hallelujah. This
(34:59):
is through Christ. We become one through the Word of God.
Now go jump over. I got another scripture for you
First Corinthians, chapter twelve thirteen. And now this is the
way he talks about the body of Christ chapter twelve thirteen.
For by one Spirit, the Holy Spirit, as the capitals are,
(35:20):
we all baptized into one body.
Speaker 1 (35:24):
See, it is the Holy Spirit that.
Speaker 3 (35:27):
Breathes into your individual spirits, minds, my wife, my cousins,
my brothers, my sisters, my brother in laws, my neighbors,
my friends. It is the Holy Spirit that breathes into
my spirit and brings it quickens it.
Speaker 1 (35:45):
How is it?
Speaker 3 (35:46):
For by one spirit are we all baptized into what
one body? Whether we be Jews are Gentiles, they don't
make no different, Black makes it. Don't make no difference
for all that s income short of the glory of God.
God is no respect of a person. Hallelujah.
Speaker 1 (36:09):
Whether we be bound or free, and don't make a difference.
Speaker 3 (36:13):
That shold you how powerful the spirit is that if
we allow him to do, but God send him to do,
too many times we cut him off when he's got
liberation in our hands. The Bible said ye shall know
the truth, and the truth will make you free. It
didn't say sit you free. God is not asking hallelujah.
(36:35):
When Jesus comes into your life, the spirit of life
is come that will make you free. No devil in
hell and no person on this earth can stop the
Spirit of truth from doing what God.
Speaker 1 (36:50):
Sind it to do. If you allow it to.
Speaker 3 (36:54):
Glory to God. Whether it be whether we be bound
or free, and have been all made, we have all
been made.
Speaker 1 (37:04):
To drink.
Speaker 3 (37:06):
Into one spirit. We've been all made to drink into
one spirit. I hope y'all getting this. Told me the
first chime. Chapter seven, I'm giving you some scun Somebody
asked me for a scriptures. I'm giving you the scriptures
that I preach from haul Elujah because I want you
(37:30):
to see this for yourself. Listen, we just got to
talking about we have all been made to drink from
this one spirit. Chapter seven. Go down to verse thirty seven.
(37:50):
John Saint John. Chapter seven, Verse thirty seven.
Speaker 1 (37:55):
Listen.
Speaker 3 (37:56):
He said, we've been all been made to drink from
this spirit capital s the Holy Spirit, the spirit of
truth that Jesus said, we were not able to receive
it one time.
Speaker 1 (38:07):
He says this.
Speaker 3 (38:08):
In the last day, that great day of the Feast,
Jesus stood and cried listen, saying, if any man thirst,
let him come unto me and drink.
Speaker 1 (38:29):
God.
Speaker 3 (38:30):
You can't do this no other way. We're talking about
being one. You gotta go through Christ to drink from
this fountain.
Speaker 1 (38:36):
Hallelujah. First thirty eight.
Speaker 3 (38:38):
He that believeth on me, as the scripture has said,
out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.
Speaker 1 (38:50):
Look at God thirty nine.
Speaker 3 (38:53):
But this spake he of what the spirit hallelujah, they
that believed on him should receive. For the Holy Ghost
was not yet given because that Jesus was not yet glorified.
Speaker 1 (39:12):
What is he saying?
Speaker 3 (39:14):
As long as Jesus was there with them, he was
the comforter. He spoke on in those teams that the
Father told him. He only did those teams that the
Father gave him to do.
Speaker 1 (39:29):
He didn't. He wasn't what she watched it about it
he did, wasn't in this day or that day.
Speaker 3 (39:35):
He even told his disciples, he said, I must depart
from you for a while, for the enemy cometh.
Speaker 1 (39:43):
And he had what nothing in me, my God.
Speaker 3 (39:47):
From glory, hallelujah, Hallelijah. And when he ascended, he was glorified, hallelujah.
Then go back with me, Go back now, circle back
to First Corinthians twelve. Let's certain, okay, I want to
(40:07):
go over this with you again. I want to show
I'm trying to show us whether one that's being one
with God is more of a benefit than we sitting
out there by ourselves. I'm talking about spiritual growth. I'm
talking about spiritual revelations. I'm talking about being able to
(40:29):
do that versus due to the right thing versus the
wrong thing, and saying it's right.
Speaker 1 (40:36):
Holler.
Speaker 3 (40:37):
Verse Chapter twelve, First Coristian Chapter twelve, Verse thirteen and fourteen.
For by one spirit all we all baptize into one body,
whether we are Jews or Gentiles, whether we bound or free,
have and have been all made to drink from drink
into one spirit. This next verse for the body is
(41:00):
not one body but many. We're not just one body.
We are many, but we walk in oneness.
Speaker 1 (41:12):
Come on, now.
Speaker 3 (41:14):
We have the same mind. We shall be agreeing with
one another. You know what I found out this When
I speak scripture and you speak scripture, and we allow
the Holy Spirit to guide us into the truth, we
will come to the same conclusion. But your job is
(41:37):
different from mine. You the hand and I'm the foot,
and we will both end up the same place. Hello, somebody,
I'm doing the job that God give me the doing.
You doing the job to give you and do so
we can arrive at the same place. Case in point,
marriage Marriage is an institution. Right, it's a covenant. It's
(42:01):
a covenant between God and the couple.
Speaker 2 (42:03):
Right.
Speaker 3 (42:05):
Okay, I was in the class one time and they
said it's like a pyramid. Christ said, the pinnacle, and
you got She got a relationship with God. I got
a relationship with God. But both our relationships are through
Christ Jesus with God.
Speaker 1 (42:22):
Right.
Speaker 3 (42:23):
And so the closer I get to God, the closer
she gets to God. The closer we come together. It's
the same way with any relationship, y'all. The closer I
get to God. When I have a situation with you
and I go to God on how to resilve it.
(42:45):
And you have a situation where and I go to God,
we get closer because God is gonna give us the answer,
the same answer, hallelujah, the answer that suits you and
the answer that suits me. Where he said, well, Ronnie,
you need to get rid of this. He's gonna say,
well you need to get rid of that. And then
once you shed that, he said, left side. Every waiting
to sin, they do it so Eaven beset you. It
(43:06):
will keep you from reaching that pinnacle. When we want
to hold on the things, and Paul told us, he said,
old things that's my old life are passed away?
Speaker 1 (43:19):
All things? What all all things?
Speaker 3 (43:25):
You mean?
Speaker 1 (43:25):
I can't take this and that and that and this
with me?
Speaker 3 (43:30):
All things what are become new? The Old Testament said
I would do a new thing.
Speaker 1 (43:41):
Hallelujah. How many y'all like to see some new clothes? Hello?
When you get a new parent duds, you get some
new gear? How often do you wear the old gear? Hello?
It is end up getting pushed back to the back
(44:02):
of the closet. Am I right about it? Somebody?
Speaker 3 (44:06):
And then you look in there and say, I haven't
wore this whole thing. I don't even know why I
still got it. Come on now, and we still want
to say, well, it's mine, I want to keep it
in the closet, Give it away, Give it away.
Speaker 1 (44:27):
Hallelujah. Glory to God. For the body is not one
but many, not one member, but many, many many. Glory
to God.
Speaker 3 (44:41):
And this is the last set I'm gonna give you
right here, John seventeen, Now, this is what Jesus prays
for our oneness. He knew how impotant Jesus now talks
about the last stage of playing for us, because he's
getting ready to go to the cross.
Speaker 1 (45:03):
He's getting ready to be glorified.
Speaker 3 (45:05):
Why he's getting ready to be glorified because he is
given the word to his disciples.
Speaker 1 (45:12):
In other words, he's done what the Father told him
to do.
Speaker 3 (45:16):
All right, Glorified means to be illuminated, means to be
made aware of Now he's complete completely the Jah.
Speaker 1 (45:25):
So God is completely aware that my son did what
I told him to do. Hallelujah.
Speaker 3 (45:31):
So now he's glorified, and he's given the word to
his disciples. Now he prays for his disciples. Go down
to verse nine. He's gonna take a snippet out this prayer.
This is a snippet Verse nine, three eleven he said,
talking to his father, he said, I pray for them,
(45:53):
talking about us, I pray not for the world, but
for them with thou hast given me. For they are dying.
They belong to you God, Loah, for all mine or dying.
So everything that God has put in his hand he
(46:15):
still believed. He still said, God, this belongs to you.
I am just a steward wool. Somebody need to hear
that I'm just a steward over.
Speaker 4 (46:25):
That them all dying on mind and dying all mind
and dying all mind, all mine are dying and dying
on mind.
Speaker 1 (46:38):
And I am glorified in them.
Speaker 3 (46:41):
In other words, when they minister, when they come forth,
they project him. They are one with him. They see
the character of God in him. They see the Father
in themselves. Because they no longer acting like they used
to act. They're no longer talking like they used to talk.
They're no longer walking in the same.
Speaker 1 (47:03):
Old way like they used to it.
Speaker 3 (47:05):
Now they're walking in one's with one another, having the
same mind Hallelujah, but different members Matthew, Mark Luke and
John Andrew Peter.
Speaker 1 (47:21):
Having a mind of Christ in them go with to
God and the last verse. And now Jesus says, and
now I am no more in the world, but these
are in the world, and I come to Thee.
Speaker 3 (47:41):
Now right now, he's saying, I'm getting ready to come
to you, Father, and the Holy Ghost is getting ready
to come down here. And I'm getting ready to sit
at your right hand to the seed for these that
you have given me. Hallelujah. I've come to THEE, Holy Father.
Keep thou thine own name, Hallelujah. Those who keep thou
(48:06):
through excuse me, keep through thine own name. Those whom
thou hast given me keep through thine own name. We're
one with God. Thou hast given me.
Speaker 1 (48:25):
That they may be one as we are.
Speaker 3 (48:33):
We come in the name of Jesus Christ. Any of
you have experienced when you've been out in public and
somebody walkme in and say, are you a Christian? Are
you a minister? Yes, they could tell everybody the way
(48:59):
of your behad behavior by the things that you do.
So if that is the case, why do we wear
that oneness with God so loosely? When we're out in public.
Speaker 1 (49:13):
We want to be that.
Speaker 3 (49:15):
When we were around people of like faith, we want
to be that. But when we get to ourselves or
with one another one on one, we want to stray
away from that. We want to act ugly.
Speaker 1 (49:28):
Come on, y'all.
Speaker 3 (49:30):
God warned Israel about that. They did that when they
were in captain. We were just reading about it this morning.
When they were around the heathen, they picked up some wickedness,
some wicked ways, and pretty soon they didn't have to
be oppressed by their captors because they were oppressing one another.
(49:53):
They took the habits and the traditions and the behaviors
of other nations, the Heathen nations, and they applied it to.
Speaker 1 (49:59):
Their own people.
Speaker 3 (50:03):
I know we talk about, have talked about in the
pastor slave master and slavery and whatnot.
Speaker 1 (50:08):
What did the slave master do? He pick out one
that's among you.
Speaker 3 (50:15):
To rule over you. Hello, that's the devil all over again.
And as he said, he's not just talking to the
Jews or the Greeks.
Speaker 1 (50:27):
But this is for all. This doesn't just happen to Blats.
Speaker 3 (50:31):
This doesn't just happen to Latinos, This doesn't just happen
to a Chinese, This doesn't just happen to whites. Every
race have been held in slavery in some way kind
of fashion of form by.
Speaker 5 (50:45):
Their own people and God people are no different, no different.
Speaker 3 (50:58):
Where do we get off thinking that we have a
different sort of circumstances that will come our way? All
have shain You come short of the glory of God.
Many are the affliction of the rights, But God deliver
us out of them all oneness.
Speaker 1 (51:15):
Become one with God, he who endure till the end
shall be saved. Hallelujah.
Speaker 3 (51:26):
Become one with God. Become one with God and fulfill
your purpose in life. Let's pray Father, in the name
of Jesus. Lord, we thank you, we praise you, will
lift you up. The word that we've heard today. Lord,
I myself I receive it, hallelujah. Even I don't depend
(51:48):
on me to hold.
Speaker 2 (51:50):
On to it.
Speaker 3 (51:50):
I ask you to help me. And likewise, Lord, I
ask you to help thieves that have heard it and
they want to receive it unto themselves, so they can
be we all become become doers of the word. Hallelujah,
that we can all become many members but one, Hallelujah.
Speaker 1 (52:08):
Through Christ Jesus. We asked this in Jesus' name.
Speaker 2 (52:13):
Amen.
Speaker 3 (52:14):
Now, if anybody out there who's not savor, who wants
to be saved or reclaimed, hallelujah. The Bible said, if
you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus Christ, and
believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead,
doubts shall be saved. Now, if anybody that needs to
be reclaimed, all you got to do is ask for
forgiveness of your sins. And one thing that is essential
(52:36):
about any of us. Ask God to reveal to you
those things that need to be changed. Matter of fact,
that's one of the purposes of the Holygos. As you
walk with him or led by him, he will show
you yourself. You'll be so busy working on yourself that
you're gonna have time to see mess with other people's lives.
Matter of fact, he'll use your demonstration of how life
(52:58):
should be lived to witnesses somebody else that need help.
And then and by doing so, you wanted to say
a word. It's just the witness of Christ in you
that will speak values to people. Why because the Bible
says this that men love darkness rather than life, because
(53:18):
their deeds were exposed, that were revealed. And when somebody
here see you doing right versus wrong, it fixes their spirit.
And the first thing they want to do is lash
out at you. Because but you don't have to receive
that because you are the righteousness of God. So if
(53:41):
anyone wants to receive Jesus Christ as their Lord and
savior or be redeemed, just repeat after me, Father, forgive.
Speaker 1 (53:54):
Me for my sins. I asked you to come into
my heart and be my Lord and savior. I believe
that Jesus is your son, and I believe that he
died on the cross from me, and I believe that
in three days, Lord, he was raised up from the
dead by the spirit, the Holy Spirit, the spirit of life,
(54:18):
and that that same spirit will quicken my members and
raise me up from dead works. In the name of
Jesus and Father, give me of your spirit so I
can be a witness, a witness of you forse in
Jesus' name, I pray man and Amen.
Speaker 3 (54:38):
If you have praised this prayer, the Bible says, if
you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus Christ, and
believe in your heart that God raised it from the dead,
doubts shall be saved.
Speaker 1 (54:47):
You got to believe it now. When you have done
this believing, don't think that you're not going to go
through things.
Speaker 2 (54:54):
You are.
Speaker 3 (54:55):
But now you have the ability or you have the
authority to call on the name Jesus to help you
in times of trouble and get into a spirit led,
Bible based church so.
Speaker 1 (55:11):
God can teach you how to live and teach.
Speaker 3 (55:14):
Instruct you and help you to be transformed in your
mind and create a clean heart in you so He
can use you more effectively. Now say that he can't
use you, but he wants to use us more effectively.
He wants us to become His workmanship to do the
works that He has already created for you to do. Hallelujah, hallelujah,
