Episode Transcript

(00:05):
We're going to have a celebration forevery single person that we have lost in
this season and in this time,and so we're praying that the Lord will
help us to get back to somesemblance of normalcy so that we can minister
in the way that we are usedto ministering and maybe add this dimension to

(00:28):
it, and that people will beblessed all over the world. Father,
we come in the name of Jesus, and we pray for your anointing.
We pray for your presence. Wepray just for you to fill the room,
fill our hearts and whatever house andwhatever computer we're watching on and looking
through whatever TV. We pray Godthat you will just let your presence,

(00:51):
let your presence fill the room andtouch everyone in every aspect. And we
claim the victory. Now, weclaim the victory. Be of comfort for
all the families who have lost anyloved one, and particularly right now decompelled
and to his family, that youwill cover them in a mighty and wonderful

(01:11):
way. We pray God that youwill touch sister Beverly right now, that
you will overwhelm her with your comfort, and all others we pray for this
pandemic, for the spikes that arehappening in Texas, happening here in California,
happening in Florida. And we praynow God that you will remove this

(01:32):
from our myths and help us tomove forward in the things that are significant.
Justice. I pray God that justicewill come about and that we will
be treated as citizens that follow thelaw. And I claim it right now.
We wish we could be loved byeverybody, but Lord, we realize

(01:53):
that that is a task that onlyyou can give us the ability to achieve,
where we can even love our enemies. And we speak now this and
all else in the mighty name ofJesus, Amen, Amen, Amen Again.
Now it's critical to understand that weare living in the time where multi

(02:17):
things are happening. So much isgoing on that to wrap your head around
it all is extremely difficult. Andnow we've got Father's Day coming along,
and we understand the significance of Father'sDay, especially and particularly in the time
when the males are being hounded sotolerably in every aspect, and really not

(02:45):
only the males, but our sistersare being hurt. And it's just an
awful thing that no matter what coloryou are, what ethnic background, religion.
No matter what your preferences are,you're still human being and should be
treated as such. No matter whatyour gender is, it just does not

(03:07):
matter. And we've got to getthe place where we understand that it is
important to love people and love theimages of God, no matter what situations
they're in. Jesus Christ taught usthat he loves sinners. He doesn't love
sin but he loves sinners because sinnersare human beings created in his image,

(03:28):
and he died to save us,and so we're very grateful for that news.
I want to touch a few thingsbefore I go into the text.
There are certain things that we mustdeal with and that we must touch before
we go into the text. Andyou can see I'm filling with this thing.
I'm trying to work out all ofmy bugs in terms of understanding how

(03:53):
to operate in this genre, inthis season, in this time when everybody's
using these machines. So bear withme a minute here. I'll get it
straight in a second. But understandthis, and I think it's important for
us to understand that we as achildren of God, there is something very

(04:13):
special that I would like to projecttoday and before I go into the message
so that I won't convolute the twoand confuse the two. I want them
to be separate in your thinking.You know, I may jump back and
forth though for a minute good,but I've got this mastered. Praise be

(04:35):
to God. It is critical tounderstand something, and that is that the
children of God, we all mustlove. And it's very important that when
God gave us the power of thespirit, the power of the spirit includes
love. Love. Peace is alsoa part of the spirit of God.

(04:59):
I was speaking to the heads ofBeautification Church on Saturday or yesterday, and
I wanted to make this very clear. It's important to realize that no greater
love hath man than this than aman laid down his life for his friends,
for the people who are close tous. The greatest exhibition of love

(05:24):
is when somebody is willing to giveup their life and give up their lives
for you. Now, notice I'veuse the plural lives because in many instances
we're still alive, but we giveup many things because we love someone.
Jesus took it further when he saidwhen a man gives up his life,

(05:45):
he's talking about that total being.When a man is willing to die for
his friend. Jesus put it inanother way, or was translated in another
way, give up his life forhim his friend. Now understand that that
is indicative of Calvary, where JesusChrist gave up his life for all of

(06:09):
us. Now, in giving uphis life for all of us, no
greater love hath man than this thana man would give up his life,
lay down his life for a friend. And in Jesus's case, you couldn't
take his life. He had togive it up. Period. That is
a voluntary act. That was anact of will. Nevertheless, not thy

(06:31):
will and not my will, butthy will be done. And it was
the will of the Father, wasthe will of God that Jesus gave give
up his life for everybody else noquestion. Now, on the other hand,
for those who receive that, forthose who have appropriated, those of

(06:54):
us who have apprehended that, thenhere comes something else that's very special.
Once we have apprehended him giving uphis life, and we have received that
to ourselves, then he turns aroundand he tells us, love your enemies.

(07:15):
Now unless one can apprehend or unlessone has the capacity to receive,
what Jesus Christ did when he gaveup his life for all of us.
When he gave up his life forus, now we should live for him.
And he gave up his life forthe just and the unjust. He

(07:39):
gave up his life for everybody,which means now those of us who have
appropriated it, those of us whohave received it, those of us who
apprehend it, and of course comprehendit, we now are told to love
our enemies. That's what I'm tryingto say, or I will say that

(08:03):
justice becomes very critical because it bringsus to a place where we can empathize,
sympathize, We can feel the painof the perpetrator and not only the
victim. Now understand the connection.The bridge is justice. Whenever the perpetrator

(08:31):
can continually demean, dehumanize, murder, hurt, kill, Whenever the perpetrator
can continue to do that without feelingany pain, without feeling any remorse,
without feeling guilt because of punishment,then all of us will only feel for

(09:01):
the victim. And there's absolutely noway to bridge into sympathy for the family
of the perpetrator. When nobody overthere suffers for the behavior that is made
out to the victim. What justicedoes is justice bridged at the yac so

(09:26):
that I can feel empathy for thefamily that is going through an horrendous circumstance
because of the behavior of the perpetrator. I hope you understand what I'm saying.
What I'm saying is it's easy forme to feel pain for the perpetrator's

(09:50):
family. Why because when people arewronged and justice is exhibited, justice is
executed. Then here's what you have. You have pain on the side of
the perpetrator because that life is turnedupside down. His or her children have

(10:13):
to deal with the behavior of theparent, the behavior of a relative,
the behavior of somebody within the fold. The whole country has to deal with
the behavior of the perpetrator, particularlyand especially because of an action that disrupts

(10:35):
the world. So at the endof the day, I want to feel
for the victim and feel for theperpetrator, But I can't feel for the
perpetrator if there is no justice.What justice does is bring everybody to the
table of pain, so that allof us can feel for one another and

(10:58):
deter this kind of action, becausewhen you know you're going to receive recompense
for your behavior. This is whysymbolism is one thing, and the symbols,
and everybody's arguing about symbols and renamingthings and all that's fine, but

(11:18):
all that is symbol that does notchange people's behavior. And that's why if
you repent, the Bible says youhave to have fruit meet for repentance.
So if somebody's sorry about how they'retreating us, and they just change a
lot of symbols, change a lotof names, and keep on treating us

(11:39):
the same way, then nothing haschanged. I want to feel for both
sides. Why Because when Jesus died, he died for perpetrators and victims,
and when he gave his life upfor me, what he's saying to me
is, now love your enemies.It ain't easy to do, but the

(12:01):
power of the Holy Spirit that's inme has to bring me to a place
where I can love every body andI can empathize on everybody. Why,
because I'm a Christian. It doesn'thappen overnight. That's why justice helps me
to fulfill what God has caused meto do. You have to understand that

(12:24):
that justice now allows me the freedomin a greater and easier way to expand
my Christianity, to cover those whoare suffering on the side of the perpetrator
and those who are suffering on theside of the victim, and now we

(12:46):
can all get under the blood ofChrist Jesus. A very critical peace,
is very critical peace, because withoutjustice, we will never have any unity
and any kind of harmony in thiscountry. Justice makes America great again.

(13:07):
Now let's go to the word ofGod. I hope you understand that we
don't want to be Christians living inhate. And when Jesus said love your
enemies, we don't want that.We want justice. We want to be
able to love everybody, and wewant to be able to feel for everybody.

(13:28):
Whenever there's a crime, two livesshould be disrupted, the life of
the victim and the life of theperpetrator. And I guarantee you if justice
is met out, then our backslidingswill turn us. Our backsliding will heal

(13:50):
us. When you backslide, theLord allows you to feel consequences in order
to turn you back to him.That's how it works. That's what chastening
is for. And for you tocontinue without chastening is you're going to end
up in the lake of fire.Because whom the Lord loveth, he chasteneth.

(14:16):
And that should be the message ofmy white evangelical brothers, should be
the message of all of my brothers, and that is that when God loves
somebody, he chasens them. Andif you're going living your life hurting people
without chastening, then they're not oneof those who are called according to His

(14:37):
purpose. Yes, indeed, becauseall things work together for good to those
that love God and be called accordingto His purpose. So if you love
God, you understand justice. Youunderstand covering the least of these, said

(14:58):
coause he said, if you soharm the least, then you might as
well put a millstone around your neckand jump into the deepest part of the
sea. It's very critical. Justiceis spiritual to the text. Now,
I told you that I was goingto do the second part of your kill

(15:20):
the wrong one this time, AndI'm going to the Book of Hebrews now,
and I'm going to the Book ofHebrews chapter eleven, and I'm picking
up at the verse twenty three.Now, just to give you background,
we understand at this point that Mosesis in Egypt. Family is in Egypt,

(15:43):
because all of Joseph's brothers are nowin Egypt, and they have multiplied
into a great family. There isa pharaoh that came along, a new
king who did not know Joseph.Now that's interesting in and of itself,
because obviously he should have known hishistory, and any king should be familiar

(16:06):
with what happened previously and should understandthe historical setting. But he comes along,
and I'm going to I'm not goingto try to acg but I would
suggest very carefully that the circumstance surroundingthis king who came in would be that

(16:26):
he didn't pay much attention to hishistory. That's why he didn't know Joseph.
That tells me he wasn't very scholarlyin the first place, because anybody
who's scholarly and is taking over anation should know the back route. What
happens here now is that Israel ismultiplying in Egypt, and the Egyptian this

(16:52):
particular king, because he had noreverence for history and no reverence for the
significance of Joseph covering his family bringingthem into the nation. He had no
significant for a man who kept thefamine out of Egypt so that he would
have a healthy Egypt to come toin order for him to reign and to

(17:15):
operate. So he had no regardfor Joseph nor the children of Israel,
who Joseph was actually sent into Egyptto protect. So here's what happens.
They now become slave. They arenow enslaved. And everything that this new
pharaoh did, this new king did, everything he did to hurt Israel turned

(17:42):
around and they were strengthened by whathe did to them. But they were
not hard a point. My daughterin law was very significant in correcting many
things. One thing and I after, I can't, I can't avoid this.

(18:03):
When I said, because of slavery, you bred us around, and
now you want us to be faithful, Well, she wasn't going for that.
Not one minute was she going forthat. And I can understand every
woman with a black male should notbe subjected to him playing around simply because
of slavery. You see, no, no, no, no, you

(18:26):
will not put that on slavery.And so if I ever reca't or repent
for anything I said, I repentfor saying that because it is not a
license for men to be playing aroundon their wives, you know, and
just having a dance. And whenshe corners him, she says, oh,

(18:47):
well, you know slavery. Thedevil is a liar, so don't
put that on me. I repent, I repent, I repent. I
take that back before, faithful,be truthful and live integral life with your
mate, and don't put slavery asa reason for your playing around. All

(19:12):
right, now, it's significant thento understand that now Moses is a deliverer,
and Moses is God's man for thehour. Now, notice, let
us read by faith. Moses,when he was born, was hid three
months of his parents because they sawhe was a proper child, and they

(19:37):
were not afraid of the king's commandment. By faith, Moses, when he
was come to years, refused tobe called the son of Pharaoh's daughter,
choosing rather to suffer affliction with thepeople of God than to enjoy the pleasures
of sin for a season, esteemingthe approach of Christ greater riches than the

(20:03):
treasures in Egypt, for he hadrespect unto the recompense of reward. By
faith, he forsook Egypt, notfearing the wrath of the king, for
he endured as seeing him who isinvisible. Through faith, he kept the
pass over and the sprinkling of bloodlest he that destroyed the first born should

(20:27):
touch them by faith. They passedthrough the Red Sea as by dry land,
which the Egyptians sway as saying toto do were droughted. Now it's
critical to understand this because my secondhalf of the you kill the wrong one

(20:48):
this time, and I might haveto do a third piece because I have
to take it all the way toCalvary. But understand this now about Moses
and about leadership. It is criticalnow because his parents saw that he was
a proper child. And the translation, of course from the Greek here is

(21:11):
colmly, and Stephen uses the wordwhen he talks about Moses that he was
colmly to God. The authorized versionI think I made a note of that
says he was exceedingly fair so andthat's now fair in terms of how he

(21:32):
looked calmly. The construction in theGreek text is dative of respect. He
was calmly with respect to God.Now it's critical to grasp this that it
does not matter how other people viewyou. It really only matters how God

(21:52):
views you. Why because God hasgreat influence in how other people treat you
or react to you. When Godfavors you, when you're calmly with respect
to God, then expect and understandthat God will cover you. So there

(22:18):
are many people who God has hishand on who have to be hidden because
satans to destroy who God has ordainedto bless others. Early, you have
to understand this because God has tocover who he has favor in. When

(22:48):
God respects not only the creation,but when God has respect to what he
wants you to do, he hasto cover you from that element that also
knows that you have favored. YouSee, when God favors somebody, it

(23:12):
is a kind of favor that cannotbe hidden, even in his youth.
And what Satan does when he doesnot know who the deliverer is going to
be, he wastes everybody. That'swhat happened in Bethlehem. Once Herod identified
the threat and he became fearful,what did he do. He wasted everybody

(23:38):
in Bethlehem because he identified where thethreat was coming from. And that's what
he did. Understand this, itis not anything new. When people recognizes
threats, they begin to fear,because there would be no fear if it
wasn't a threat, and then theydestroy Moses had to be covered. Somebody

(24:03):
is hidden today. Who God hashis hand on, who's going to take
us, the nation, the world, going to take us to another level,
or even your community, even yourneighborhood. But God has to cover
people until he's ready to release them. That's why when they came to get

(24:26):
David, and they went down throughevery list, every boy, and and
and and and and Samuel well understoodthat he was so in touch with God
that God was not sending him downthere to come back empty handed, without
anointing a king, with the threatof Saul all around him. No,

(24:47):
He's going down there to fulfill thejob. So here's a question, is
there somebody else? Because David wastotally overlooked by his own family, and
again he was rudy. He againthat Hebrew expression simply meant he was again
very calmly. He was a littleguy, calmly with respect to God.

(25:10):
When God has his hand on you, I don't want to spend all all
day with that because but it's avery critical point, and that is when
God has his hand on you,he will protect you until the appointed tide.
Now it's critical to grasp further thatwhen we understand this, that Moses'

(25:32):
parents they realize and they understood howsignificant he was, and so they evaded
the law that male children were supposedto be killed. In words, we
see something special in this child,and we're not about to kill or destroy
what we have seen God's hand on. Now that's important for everyone else to

(26:00):
understand, and that is when Godhas his hand on somebody, you cover
them, don't try to destroy them, because if you're destroying who God has
its hands on, or if you'reseeking to destroy who God has his hand
on, then you have now becomea tool of the enemy. You see
many times people put their mouth onother people that God has his hand on,

(26:26):
and they become the tool of theenemy. So immediately they fall out
of graces with God because they havedecided that they don't like who God has
his hand on. Be very careful. That's why David said of Saul,
even though he was the anointed one, that he was not going to touch

(26:47):
the Lord's anointed and do him noharm. Why because he understood that when
God has his hand on someone,until God's hand is lifted. When he
told Samuel about Sault, don't prayfor him anymore, don't don't don't bring
him up to me, and whyI don't want to hear his name.

(27:07):
Why because I've taken my hand offhim. When I take my hand off
him, you take your hand offhim. If you're with me, when
I have my hand on him,you don't touch him if you're with me.
Very critical piece here, when theyrealize that he was comedly, that
there is something special about him,there was no law that they were going

(27:30):
to follow. When God showed themhow powerful this child was. So he
was handsome, he was a wellfavored child, and the naturally the parents
look forward to a great destiny forhim, an exceptional career. And that's
all in the spirit. So byfaith, that's what the scriptures declared by

(27:53):
faith in this aspect, by faith, when he was born, his parents
now understand faith is looking forward.Then, so when they looked at the
child, they realized that there issomething special about this child. So by
faith they hid him. By faith, they realized that God's hand was upon

(28:15):
him. By faith, they understoodthat nothing was going to happen to stop
him from a great career. It'simportant for parents to get a vision of
what God is doing and Father's Dayis coming. It's important for parents to

(28:37):
have a vision of what God isgoing to do with a child that they
bring, because every child that youbring into the world is a potential world
changer. And in the case ofBrother George, whether by life or by
death, there are those people whoare trying to dismantle his life and make

(29:02):
Brother Floyd insignificant. But his lifehave nothing to do with him changing the
world. He won't be remembered forhis life. He will be remembered for
how he died. And it's howhe died that will change the world.

(29:22):
So for anyone who wants to goin and assassinate his character as a sycophant
or a minion of another power,well you have missed the point. You
have totally missed the point. Itwas his death that is significant. Here

(29:47):
the way he died, and hisfamily will always remember how significant his life
was because of how he died.Ox and moronic it sounds, but I
think you got it. Parents haveto understand that every child that you bring

(30:10):
into the world, every male,every female, has the potential to do
great things. By faith, theycovered him up now and see the Bible
tells us and to show how Godworks, God very cleverly put him in

(30:33):
Pharaoh's house. She was down bythe river when they and she found him
and put him in Pharaoh's house.Oh, now, I want you to
imagine the decadence that was in Pharaoh'shouse. I don't think that we can

(31:00):
apprehend the kind of situation that Mosesgrew up in. The blessed thing is
that his mother wants his nanny.So while he's in Pharaoh's house, I
want you to see the conflict.On one side. You have all of

(31:25):
the luxuries, all of the decadents, all of the debauchery, all of
whatever goes on in the house ofPharaoh, and just go to your wildest
thoughts, and you probably won't beable to imagine the kind of decadence that
he grew up in. However,there was a balance because he's now being

(31:52):
taught by his mother the principles andthe rules that govern Hebrew operation and Hebrew
behavior. He is being taught thethings of God. So in the middle
of the decadence of Pharaoh, heis being instructed in the proper way of

(32:13):
God. This means then that thereis something anchored in him that when God
begins to move on him, hehas something to reach for. This now
brings me to the very introduction ofGod to Moses, when now he deals

(32:37):
with him. Because Moses is lookingand understanding the things of God, yet
he's in the middle of the conflictof being in Egypt. This is why
the word choosing is important, becausenow he is caught in a dilemma where

(33:00):
he has got to decide within himselfwhat am I going to do? Am
I going to stay here and enjoywhat is happening? Or am I going
to go with God's people? Choosing? Choosing? It seems to indicate then

(33:24):
that God didn't just lift him up, overwhelm his concept of choice, overwhelm
his freedom to choose, but Godrather had both in front of him.
Now we're looking at the garden ofEden. In the middle of the garden,
you've got the tree of the knowledgeof good and evil that God told

(33:46):
them not to touch. But rightbeside it is the tree of life.
There is always choices that God putsin front of you, you to take
one or the other. You cantake one to damnation, you can take
the other to life. And thisis where Moses is choosing. Choosing.

(34:14):
In order to choose, God hasgiven them both signs. Now Notice where
the redeemer is. Notice where theleader is. And this is the second
part of what I want to talkabout today, and that is how many
of our Moses is that God hasfor this age? How many of our

(34:37):
Moses is? Because I'm looking aroundfor great leadership to bring us out of
this situation of trial and tribulation inAmerica, We're looking for leadership. Where
is Moses? Where are our Mosesfor our communities? Where are our moses

(35:00):
Is for our pulpits? Where areour moses is in our political socio political
environment? Where are our Moses isin our economic situation? Where are they?
You see, he chose rather tosuffer affliction by faith. When he

(35:23):
came to a certain age, hechose to be He chose not to be
called the son of Pharaoh's daughter.Where are our Moses? I'll tell you
what has happened. Our Moses havebecome so entrenched with the pleasures and the

(35:52):
riches of Egypt that they had failedus. Our Moses is love their money
more than they love people, andthey can't give up the prestige. They

(36:17):
can't threaten their wealth, They can'tthreaten the powers around them that make them
significant. For somebody who is suffering. And so the attitude is, why
should I suffer for somebody who's suffering, even though I have the ability and

(36:42):
the power to empower them. Yousee, here is a critical thing about
God. And I thank God againfor my daughter in law because her answer
is clean, and that is thatempowerment becomes critical for the people around us.
I was talking the psychologists this week, and the indication is and and

(37:04):
and I said to her, whatyou need to do for me is show
me how to reach people who wecan empower. Show me, because if
there's a psychological impediment that's keeping themfrom moving to the next level, then
everything I do is going to bea lesson in futility for me, because

(37:28):
I'm going to be quite disappointed ifI'm throwing everything I have out there and
there is no response. Look mylook at Moses. You see many times
we as a children of God andpastors and leaders of people, we feel
like we're owed a whole lot.And I'm the man of God and the

(37:50):
man of God or to be livingon a certain level and the man of
God or to be treated on acertain level. And nothing is too good
for the men of God. Butwhat happens when faith does the very opposite.
Here is Moses in Pharaoh's house,sequestered, completely covered by the man

(38:21):
who is hurting all of his people, and yet still the first opportunity Moses
gets when he sees something happening toone of his people living in the house
of Pharaoh, he reaches over andkills the Egyptian, and then the Hebrew
turns around and tells it. Sonow he's got to flee for forty years,

(38:46):
forty years in decadence. It tookforty years to get it out of
him, understand, But he hadto make a choice. And that's the
critical peace here is that we aretoo afraid to lose what we have gained

(39:09):
for the benefit of the people ofGod. And yet still in all of
Moses's resistance, because when God finallycornered him at the Burning Budget, he
was resisting because he was already betrayedby a group of people that God wanted

(39:32):
him to lead out. And sowhat I'm saying to those of us who
are in position to be Moses isthat we can't sit here and not do
what God said and what operate inthe things of God. First of all,
because we're afraid to lose the opulencethat we have now gained that we

(39:54):
said the Lord gave us. Andsecondly, because we're saying that we're talking
to some people who aren't really goingto change anyway. I wish you'd understand
that when God calls us to apurpose, and when God has covered us,

(40:16):
and he covered him in fair Roah'shouse, he literally covered him in
the enegymy house. But in coveringin the enemy's house, he had to
make a choice between staying there andleaving. God did not bless us to

(40:37):
cheap our blessing beyond our calling.God did not bless us to sit aside
and ignore the prize of the people. Where are the voices? Where are
the voices of Moses in a timeof despair? Where is the voice of
empowerment? When do we teach whatwe have learned to the people of God

(41:01):
and quit taking their money under thepretense that something's going to fall out of
heaven into their pockets. It didn'thappen to you and I church was our
business. We are CEOs of millionsand millions of dollars. We run a

(41:23):
church cooperation that brings millions of dollarsin and many of us had to learn
how to do it. When dowe take that same knowledge and build our
people economically? When when do webuild them psychologically? When do we build

(41:46):
them in family relationships? When dowe build them in a socio political system
that is totally antithetical to God hastold us to do? No, we're
too afraid. We don't want tolose favor, So we shut our mouths,

(42:07):
and we wait until certain people talkbefore we come out, and we
let our publicists and we let ourpublic relations group temper what we have to
say, so nobody cries aloud andspare not because we're very careful about what
we want to say. And thisis why we end up with situations where

(42:31):
there is no more any Moses isleading this charge for those of us who
have money and comfort and private everythingand all, we're not leading this charge.
Martin Luther King is gone. Gavehis life up for the common man,

(42:53):
for the average person. Moses wasnot average, but he had to
choose between walking away from opulence we'llnever see, to go into the wilderness.
And here's what he here's what theBible says that he esteemed. Oh

(43:19):
my goodness esteemed the reproach of Christgreater riches than the treasures in Egypt.
Choosing again, let me see mynote here. The influence Moses's what influenced

(43:42):
his choice, because he's looking andesteeming the good things. I think Tiloh
interprets the action of Moses this way, and I quote he says, esteem
the good things of those who adoptedhim, although more splendid for or a
season to be in reality curious,but those of his natural parents, although

(44:07):
for a little while less conspicuous,to be true and genuine unquote. The
influence then that Moses had was theteachings that he received from his mother.
And what he realized was that theteachings that he internalized was more significant than

(44:34):
the things around him. We havebecome. You know, it's bad,
and that's why I deal with intentcontent. It's bad when we use the
purity of what we're taught simply togain wealth. Our job and our Moses
spirit should be whenever I see mybrother be wronged, everything that I have

(45:02):
and everything that I am is upfor grabs because I'm going to my brother's
aide. That's what we do.What we fail to understand is Christianity is
substralogy. It is based primarily onsacrifice and the grandiose spirit that operates within

(45:27):
You can only be grandiose because ofthe choice you made to be with God's
people rather than to sit and enjoythe pleasure in Egypt. So I'm speaking
now to our Moses is and I'mgoing through a part three on this one

(45:47):
because I have to get the calvin. I'm speaking to our Moses. I'm
saying to you, now you havea choice to make, because who are
we being led by? Now?God has taken the least of us from

(46:12):
man's perspective, we are being ledThis charge is being led by people with
enormous school bills. This charge isbeing led by babies born out of wedding
life. This charge is being ledby the uninsured. This charge is being

(46:32):
led by the uneducated. This chargeis being led by people who we regard
as least of all. Why becauseour Moses has chosen to stay in Egypt,
and God had to find somebody totake this charge to say us from

(47:01):
the despicable behavior that's happening in theworld. God is using the least of
us to make a difference. Whenthe Greater of Us is still lavishing in
Egypt. I am saying to allmy brothers and sisters on from every color,

(47:23):
every part of the world, Nowis the time to choose whether or
not you're going to stand up forwhat is proper, what is right,
for justice and mercy, for rightdoing towards all people. When are we
going to stand up and declare thatit all begins with me? Peace begins

(47:47):
with me, Justice begins with me, Love begins with me. All the
things that God has given me bythe Holy Spirit, gentleness, patience,
temperance, long suffering, all ofit begins with me. And if all
of us have that same kind ofspirit, then we can leave our egypts

(48:08):
and gathered together and head with everybodyto the Promised Land. I want to
conclude by saying, it does notmatter whether everybody you left with makes it,
because only two madive of the originalnumber. Moses himself didn't make it,

(48:35):
but faith put him in a positionwhere the next generation went into the
Promised Land along with Caleb and Joshua. Understand that when God moves you,

(48:55):
your response to God is not predicatedon the result. It's predicated simply on
you responding to his call. Andhis call is not for riches, because

(49:17):
that's gonna pass away. His callis for you to do his will and
let the chips fall where they madethe sower's sold It's not the sower's fault
when the ground didn't produce, becausehe was called the soul. It's over

(50:45):
