When God puts a call and agift in your life, you have no
choice but to fulfill it. Welcometo Pastor Ricardo Correa' s podcast,
pastor of the Montesina Church and inNorth Carolina, prepare your heart to receive
a word that will lead you toGod' s truth. Today, today
(00:28):
' s practice is titled your behavior. He' s got weight. They
hate your behavior with me. He' s got weight, and it'
s not because you' re overweight, it' s your behavior. And
they understand that today many cannot havea disciple or can not evangelize because of
(00:50):
their behavior in their lives, becausebehavior prevents them from evangelizing or having disciples.
And since we are in what isthe forty days of vision with operation
Philip, we have been talking aboutthe power of prayer. But now that
next week we finish the prayer,we have already completed a week working this
(01:17):
Friday, we complete the second week, but by the third week we will
be what it is like to visitfamilies. That is important that we not
only talk about the ration, butlet' s talk about how we behave,
how our testimony is. And,unfortunately, it is sad that many
of us cannot have a disciple becauseof our behavior, because that does not
(01:38):
prevent them. How we sometimes manageourselves in certain situations makes people around us
see honestly whether we have the holyspirit within us or not, because when
you react to something people will alwaysbe pretententi sit you are Christian. True
(02:06):
yes, if something happens to youat work and people stay like they see
and what they' re going tosay is Christian this one. Let'
s see? Let' s see? Let' s see? Let'
s see? There are some whosay I wouldn' t have tolerated that
and look how he reacted. Then. People will always be measuring us for
being God’ s children, forbeing Christians in how we behave. Today
(02:28):
we' re going to be hidingthe scriptures of how your behavior as children
of God affects your evangelism, howyour behavior affects evangelism, how your behavior
affects the church where you meet,how your behavior affects your testimony, and
(02:55):
so, at the end, you' re going to understand that your behavior.
It' s heavy. Let megive this story. It' s
called the loony beam and it saysthe following on a given occasion. Plato,
in a thousand four hundred and twenty- nine to three hundred and seventy
(03:17):
- four, before Christ, reproachedhis Master Socrates for reprimanding a slave before
others, when, according to hisphilosophy, he should have done it in
private so as not to make himridiculous in front of others. You should
also have said this alone and notbefore my disciples, the Master argued.
(03:40):
Then Plato agreed with him, whilehe apologized. You can' t say
what it is like, you haveto do things, and when the time
comes that things happened like this,behave yourself. How different because the behavior
(04:01):
that should be now, when talkingabout what behavior is, I have decided
what it is to bring a littlepersonality combination. And they understand that personality
does not involve conduct. And theyunderstand this in psychology, personality is not
(04:23):
the same as behavior. Many thinkso, but it really isn' t.
Then what is a personality. Personalityare characteristics and traits that describe a
person, for example. This personis not quiet, this person does not
kill a fly, does not smoke, does not drink. It' s
(04:47):
a personality. And they understand thatpersonality in every human being begins to form
from the age of six to theage of twelve. What we are parents
and have children at that age weare definitely seeing as the personality in which
it has been formed. That's why we, as parents, when
(05:10):
we have habergers, thirteen, fourteen, fifteen, sixteen, even seventeen times,
see it as hearing, but comehere and because you are like this
because you are already formed from theage of six to the age of twelve.
Okay. That' s the personality. Now I want to accept what
behavior is, because behavior is inherentcharacteristics of a person how he acts in
(05:38):
every situation. There' s anaction behind the behavior. Behavior gives a
light of what your personality is.When you behave in a certain way,
that gives what to abdar about yourpersonality. In other words, you behave
(06:00):
is your indication of how you are. So, for example, your behavior
is a sample of consequences in yourlife are good experiences or experiences that are
bad, of which these experiences areforming our behavior. Understand that the world
(06:24):
is surrounded by people who have behaviorthey do not want to have. I
met says there' s a pastorreally is that I don' t know
why I behave like this, butmany times I end up behaving like this,
the world is surrounded by people whohave behavior that they don' t
(06:46):
want, because this behavior is resultas consequences and actions that they have had
in their life, whether by actionsby themselves or by people that are done
to them, for example. Yourbehavior can be a consequence of your upbringing,
(07:06):
it can be a consequence of yoursocial class. Your behavior can be
based on your education and, forexample, if you were a victim,
your behavior can be based on whetheryou were abused psychologically or what or physically
(07:27):
are with me. Your behavior isa reflection of how your soul is found,
not your spirit, how your soulis found. Behavior is something that
we don' t really think muchabout. But behavior is affecting your spirit,
(07:49):
from which it springs through actions andwords to all who surround it.
That' s why there are peoplewho say no, because already leave them,
already it' s going to belike that, already it' s
going to change us. We alreadytolerated your behavior. Or, for example,
if it happens to our halves you' d say, I' m
(08:11):
not surprised, because he behaves orhe behaves like ah yes, we'
re already getting to know that behavior. They now understand that behavior has spiritual
roots from which they cannot be healedunless you identify them and present them to
(08:33):
God. There are situations in yourlives that you don' t know what
you' re all about or howyou behave and God won' t be
able to deal with until you saymake a face. And actually, it
' s just that this affected me, that' s why I behave like
(08:54):
this. Let' s take alook at you Let' s give you
a perfect example. What happens whena man infers from a woman, when
a man without faith the Chense womenis the possibility is that the woman will
forgive him? The possibility now,what happens when she' s a woman,
(09:24):
what infers them from the man.The possibility is that the man won
' t go back to her.It is a behavior that is different the
same as the situation, but itreacts how different now this man was unfaithful
to him. How you think he' s going to behave with the next
(09:46):
relationship very different, based on thatprevious experience. We are creatures that based
on experiences, it' s howwe cut ourselves now. I want to
talk about this, because there's something the lord put in my heart
(10:07):
that I actually said sir why youwant me to talk about this. But
there' s one behavior that wehave today that we don' t know
what we' re doing. Andthis behavior in two terms is what is
introverted and extroverted. Introverted is aperson who carries everything inside and the extrovert
(10:35):
is a person who is friendly andall good. Let me tell you the
introvert who tends to lock himself upand has difficulty spontaneously manifesting his feelings and
thoughts. The extrovert is sympathetic andaffectionate and frankly manifests his thoughts and feelings.
(11:07):
So we see that people who areintroverted are not people who don'
t have, have a behavior,that they compress it, they actually put
it in print. If they're upset, they' re upset,
(11:28):
but not what they don' tleave behind, they don' t express
it, they won' t letyou know, they still have the same
blank faces. You don' tknow what' s going on inside,
what' s going on inside?I always remember here. I don'
t know why, but when Iwas growing up in my house, there
was a pressure cooker and when wewere going to eat beans or beans,
(11:48):
we put that depression and there weput beans. True, the beans and
how they knew I was ready.When it' s called a piquito pir
that there are many introverted people,who look like an ovia depression, that
they' re all getting inside,inside, inside, and suddenly that catapun
(12:15):
explode conste Let' s bring itnow to the people who have Christ in
their hearts. Ah where you go, because at the time of all this
look and I return the praise again. Praise is the outward expression of what
Christ has done internally in You.That is why you see some who jump
like the lambs of David and yousee others who only applaud, because those
(12:39):
who jump like the lamb David perhapsGod brought him out of the lowest and
most muddy in the world and hasmuch to thank God for. That'
s true. He spoke to mefor Mr What happens to the introverted person.
(13:01):
He may have been an introverted person, I may have been marked in
his life by what is emotional situationsof which he has not decided to express
his feelings. For example, let' s say this an introverted person,
because of this behavior that, forexample, says he or she say something,
(13:22):
say ay what stupid comment. Pleasedon' t say something like that.
I' m not going to tellmyself what' s going to be
the better person than I' mgoing to shut up, because what I
' m saying is that stupid personis going to what hold everything inside.
But it doesn' t mean hedoesn' t feel the emotions. Feel
(13:46):
the emotions, but don' tstagnate them by expressing their behavior. So
it' s one that in Englishis a plant that means it' s
a behavior that doesn' t matterwhat happens. This does not react to
the person, a person who isactually introverted. Listen carefully, you may
(14:07):
even miss special moments with your family, with your children, with your wife,
and we will go fishing. It' s not right. I don
' t want to get spontaneous.He' s not there. He doesn
' t have a behavior that yousay, wow, what' s wrong
(14:30):
with you, why you' relike that, and it' s because
he' s actually had some marksin his life that he' s actually
marking the lives of others now becauseof how he behaves around them. You
' re an introverted person. It' s not that I want you to
get out of here or because ofme, because of me, because of
(14:52):
me, I don' t wantthe introvert person to get out here saying
it' s how I can changethis inside of me, because it'
s that I don' t wantto be itself. I want to laugh
at people. I want to talkto people. I want me to actually
be able to share with people myideas, my joys, my occurrences and
be completely a person where I reflectthe joy of God through my behavior.
(15:22):
But if you' re engaged ina position that' s not your fault,
but maybe you were molded into yourupbringing. Maybe you were molded in
your youth. And now if it' s better, I stay quiet,
because the quieter, the more Idie. I see this harming your life
(15:45):
in many areas. The introverted personmust give to God any spiritual mark or
any mental experience in his upbringing sothat God can fully work in his life.
Sir, why I' m likethis, why I can' t
(16:11):
hug people, why I can't get close, why I feel more
comfortable with a small group of people, but with others I feel completely strange,
protecting myself like I don' twant to expose myself to what'
s going on. Mr Well,this day I want you to evaluate your
upbringing. You assess, actually,what marked your life for you to say,
sir, so far this behavior hascome. So much for this thing
(16:38):
that' s hurting me. Understandthat behavior does not define personality, but
it does influence it. And understandthat behavior is the reaction to an experience.
(17:03):
You can react to something as smallas if it were as big as
the atomic bomb in Hiroshima, oryou can react something as big with peace
and quiet, say quiet. Iknow it' s strong, but everything
' s gonna be okay. One' s behavior is the reaction to an
(17:30):
experience. Why is behavior important?Because, as children of God, it
is important that we be attentive tobehavior, because behavior is the first thing
we are judged by saying when Isee a church ah, you go to
a church ah. That' swhy I expect this from you You'
(17:52):
re listening without you opening your mouthI hope you' re like that.
Like this. That is more,there are people who expect us, being
Christians, to be fools. Yes, I love God, a hundred manito.
If there are no people who actuallyconfuse our behavior, with what with
our personality, then behavior is somethingthat God always, always considers important.
(18:22):
First guy four or two. Hesays to Tim Paul, Timothy. No
one but express your youth and Iam reading that it is the textual Bible.
No one but your youth, butbe an example of believers in word,
in conduct, in love, infaith, and in what? And
(18:42):
in purity listen to me well,you can say that you love everyone,
but if you have a behavior ofno one is going to want to be
with you, because it behaves abad thing that is unreasonable. They understand
what' s going on here issaying your important behaviors for what you have
(19:04):
to do. God puts behavior assomething that conditions his promises. For example,
one condition is look at this lucasI' m going to give you
(19:26):
this for Christmas, but you haveto bring me that good grades are the
condition for that rewarded. With whathe would like is that it brings me
to what I demand God is so. God uses behavior with something that conditions
his promises. Look at this andI repeat first kings eight hundred and twenty
(19:52):
- five and am reading that theliving notation now, Oh Lord God,
Israel carries out the other promise youmade to yourself. David, my father,
when I gave it to them,if your descendants take care that their
spirit, their personality, not theirbehavior and follow me faithfully, they have
(20:15):
this. You can follow someone withfaithfulness and have very bad behavior, because
God is talking to you. Inhow you behave, in how you react,
in how you look at the wordof God, in how you actually
(20:37):
look at life you get up.You open the fridge this morning. You
see only half a gallon of milk. You look up. They have no
ham, no cheese, no water. You say good, let' s
eat. It can' t be, and he' s gonna eat what
charnce' s gonna eat because there' s no chirios And when you grab
(21:03):
the cereal, you sit on thetable, made that cereal in the bowl,
and when you' re gonna pourout the spit milk or how do
you react? Thank you, sirThank you, sir. It all depends
on how you react. And evenif I trust God is like you,
then listen carefully to your behavior arethe complaints you make to God based on
(21:26):
the promises you make to God.Oh, if you believe God, being
your behavior must be quiet. Godsaid it was going to be all of
them. Why worry. Don't despair him to keep his promise.
It says here if your descendant takescare of his behavior or so other words,
(21:47):
when you say take care of him, it means that we may neglect
the behavior. It may be neglectedif your descendants take care of their behavior
and continue to entrust me with reality. Just like you did. There was
always one of God seated on thethrone of Israel. Here is a promise
(22:07):
that God made to David in Samuel' s first, where he says and
you know that if your children behaveas they should be, if they don
' t bring me pagan goddesses,if they don' t do anything about
violating the covenant that you and Ihave, I' m going to make
sure that your offspring reign every day. These are here now in the Book
(22:29):
of Kings. It is. WhenSolomon finally finishes building the temple, does
he then bring the ark to thetemple and the Presence of Jehovah enters that
place? And when he enters thatplace, Solomon says hey, so you
have kept a promise. I'm asking you, as you tell me,
to do the second. And that' s where we see it.
(22:51):
Then, as you said what isbased on behavior, then let' s
see what behavior is like based onGod' s word, because at the
time truth, if we want toplease God, we have to look for
him where here, in the Bible, you are not being invented. I
pregnant birds, I come to tellyou exactly what God expects of you as
(23:15):
behavior. Or go with me whatTito' s book does. Go to
chapter number two Tetito and let's about which behavior based on the word
of God, or what we sayto Titus, chapter two, verses from
one to ten I' m goingto read it and then I' m
going to break it down to eachof God. But look at you,
(23:36):
he says and I' m readingthe new living translation. Says the following.
Tito two tito. As for you, it fosters the kind of life
that reflects healthy teaching. It teachesolder men to exercise self- control,
to be worthy of respect, andto live wisely. They must have solid
faith and be full of love andpatience. Similarly, they teach older women
(23:59):
to live in a way that honorsGod. They must not slander anyone or
get drunk. Instead, they shouldteach others what is good. These older
women have to instruct the younger womento love, their husbands and their children
to live wisely and be pure towork at home or what is in some
(24:21):
manuscripts says to care for the home, work or care for the home to
live? Wisely to be pure orto work or to care to get to
do good and submit to their husbands, then they will not dishonor the word
of God. Verse six. Inthe same way, encourage young men to
live that wisely and be an examplefor them in doing all kinds of good
(24:45):
deeds, that whatever you do reflectsthe integrity and seriousness of your teaching,
teaches the truth so that they cannotcriticize your teaching. Then what they oppose
will be ashamed and they will havenothing wrong to say about you. Slaves
must always obey their masters and doeverything possible to please them. They should
(25:07):
not be answerable, steal or provethat they are good and absolutely trustworthy.
Then they will make teaching near God, our Savior, attractive in every way.
I finish what it is to saypractically what God expects of you as
a behavior son of God and let' s talk about what is the first
(25:29):
example he gives about which of theolder men. Verses two two thousand.
What he says teaches older men toexercise control of their own. As men,
we already believe that since we havehairs on our chest, we can
already do what comes out of myleash and sometimes we do things that hurt
(25:55):
our home. Man has to exercisehis own control. This is what you
' re actually looking at. Letme tell you something, take an example.
Someone comes and says love this Fridayand you know the body asks me
(26:18):
out. I' m going outtoday, but Daddy' s not.
The thing is, we' regonna have eyesight. I don' t
care I' m going out.I feel like going out and the man
leaves and the woman who gives what' s behind, maybe it' s
in shame or whatever. And manliving his own conscupiscence and all the true
(26:40):
man of God says oh, Iwanted to go out today, but I
' m not going out. It' s okay. We' re gonna
do this and then next time I' m out. A man who loves
God has his own control, isto be worthy of respect and to live
(27:04):
wisely. This is very important.There are many men who do not know
how to live wisely. There aremany men who don' t look at
me listen carefully. You can havewhatever you want in any part of your
life, but there are people who, even if they have everything, do
not live wisely. God asks usto see vividly. He says that man
(27:27):
must have solid faith and be fullof love and patience. That is the
behavior that we should have full oflove and patience, but that asks older
women. Women in a similar way, teach older women to live from a
(27:47):
manna that honors God whose purpose thisis. He asks us to have strong
faith, but women ask him tohonor God. You mustn' t slander
anyone or get drunk if you knowthat slander isn' t gossipy forgiveness.
(28:07):
I didn' t say. Itold him the word Ricardo Correa version RTC.
Twenty- four. They don't slander. Calumnia is talking about
false testimony, talking about someone beingthrowing stones or indirect or direct. Stop
doing it. That keeps the bazookaand here. You mustn' t warm
(28:34):
anyone up or get drunk. Instead, they should teach others that it is
good. These older women have toeducate younger women. That' s where
he goes, because this is theinteresting thing. It is the responsibility of
the older woman to teach young women, even though they still have no partner
(28:56):
in how to love who their husbands. They should not be going anywhere else
to receive this Council. It shouldbe within the body of Christ that these
older women must instruct younger women tolove their husbands and children to live,
to live wisely and to be pure, to work in the place, to
(29:19):
do good and to submit to theirhusbands. What I am talking about here
is what the Lord expects of youngwomen who love their husbands, who love
their children who live wisely and whoare pure and who work in their place.
So I don' t want tocome to what it is to say
(29:44):
is actually, that you have togive yourself the house and not anymore,
because today no one has the luxuryof having his wife and the house.
And if you have it, gloryto God, I' m glad,
but not everyone has it. Thenwe have to be wise in that,
work at home. It' sfor the wife to know that her responsibility
is. It' s been madesure everything' s flowing in the house.
We' re here You can askthe husband to help flow, but
(30:06):
it' s her responsibility. Imade it God' s word. Now
let' s talk about the youngermen. Presicle six likewise encourages young men
to live wisely. This is interestingbecause young men don' t tell you
to do this, you have todo it. Another only says look live
wisely so that you can become amature man. I, at the age
(30:33):
of twenty- one, for youdo not live wisely. And I ended
up getting a girlfriend pregnant and Ihave a beautiful son about it, and
there we have consequences that I havetruth so I am not ashamed and thank
God. God has been very goodto me, to that relationship and to
(30:55):
that boy and everything. But ifI had lived wisely, I didn'
t have a son Male out ofmy cover, because although I don'
t have him with me, Iknow I need him and even if I
(31:18):
look for him, he may notconsider me so important, because I haven
' t been in his life sincehe was born. Then young people are
told to live wisely. Let usbe wise in how to live young.
The time will come when what isyour day to be a man, where
you will have a wife, drowna car and everything will be given to
(31:40):
you. But, meanwhile, inyour youth, the behavior that God asks
of us is that we see thatwisely now in all this we see how
in verse eleven through fifteen we seethe theological basis of this behavior, because
(32:02):
this behavior has to come with atheological basis. And if we go to
what is verse eleven to fifteen thousand, what it says, for the grace
of God has already been revealed,which brings salvation to all people. We
are going to carve in depth thatyes, the salvation of God brings salvation
to all people and we are instructedto turn away from worldly life and sinful
(32:23):
pleasures. Pay attention to that.The theological basis of Christian behavior is that
you depart from worldly life and sinfulpleasures. I mean, there' s
a distinction in you than you.Actually, don' t be what it
(32:46):
' s like to live a lifewhere people say, but you' re
white, you' re black,you' re Christian, or you'
re not Christian. No, youhave to make a distinction in your life,
in your behavior, in order forme to separate you from the world.
What do you mean mundane, thingsof what, things of the world
and a life that a life ofsinful pleasures, look brothers, I will
(33:10):
do it well sincere. Sin isrich, sin brings pleasure, but sin
is death. Oh, that's easy. It' s the thing.
If you want to die, putsin in the polar hours and mouth
(33:30):
everywhere. Thus is sin, sinkills you, sin corrupts you. There
is nothing that you can prosper insin and God tells you to separate from
worldly life and sinful pleasures. Henceyou are not going to get anything,
(33:50):
because we know that sin to usis bringing consequence from which our behavior is
changing Look at how you say twelvethis while we yearn with hope for that
wonderful day that reveals the glory ofour Great God and Savior Jesus Christ God,
(34:15):
what he is saying here in theword. The following says you know
what to do with a life separatedfrom the world, behave yourself from sinful
pleasures and rejoice in the sphere thatour Savior King comes for you and comes
for me. That must be ourjoy, that must be our guide.
(34:35):
And look here is where oh myGod here is where I really don'
t paint with many who preach theword, but what do I care about
look at the gospel. The Gospelis so that you can live a victorious
(34:58):
life as long as our king returns. The word says we' re going
to go from Glory to Glory,when in heaven we' re not going
to say Gloria Gloria, as longas we live here on earth. Then
I shouldn' t be begging forbread. I' m not a speartail,
(35:20):
I' m not a shame,I' m a spearhead. I
am the son of God, ofwhom if I seek the kingdom of God
and his righteousness, the word saysthat the rest will be added. Listen
to the rest. As long asI live on this earth, there are
many people who focus on saying oh, when Christ comes, we will be
(35:44):
walking through the streets of Gold,through the seas of Crystal. Yes,
but while you' re here,you' re living bitterly, you'
re living religiously contracted, you're completely with a false marriage. Your
children are getting lost because you arenot applying the principles of God’ s
Kingdom behavior in your life. Jesuswants you to live a victorious life here
(36:10):
on earth. When we' rein heaven, we' re not going
to evangelize anyone, we' renot going to beat anyone. Then who
are we going to convince there,no one, because we' re all
there now. The point is thatwe make up for it. People here
look at you. You decide toworship Balaam, you know what. I
' d rather love her now andfor you to see. While you'
(36:31):
re looking for money, I'm looking for God' s Kingdom and
you know what God gives me.It not only gives me salvation and eternal
life, but it also gives meprosperity, gives me family, gives me
joy, gives me joy. I' m looking for the catcher, I
can get you with the ticket,but this one gives me more than a
ticket. Then you say hey,but I want to know that God you
(36:59):
know by your behavior. Others mustknow the God you know. Then we
must live with wisdom and righteousness andwith a devotion to God. We must
generate with hope the revelation of ourJesus. When Christ appears, you'
re going to tell him that hedidn' t believe you saw I told
(37:22):
you there he comes and you stayed, you look at him boy I told
you that he came for us,he came with us, look in a
(37:43):
white cloud repent stop living a lifein sin, that there' s nothing
good for you. Another thing aboutbehavior. Christians is verse fourteenmpre tells you
he gave his life to free usfrom all kinds of sin amen, to
deliver us and to make us hisps people fully committed to doing what canticles
(38:06):
to make good meals when we meetfor events. Not the word that we
have to do good deeds. TheChurch is the example of the world out
there that we do that good deeds. This is where, in reality,
(38:28):
many people are surprised because they cometo the Church look at the other days.
He' s calling someone for help. So I say well, I
could be a stubborn pastor and sayno, you don' t go to
the Church, you don' tknow God, it won' t help
you. Go somewhere else. Hey, if someone who doesn' t know
(38:50):
Christ is calling me a pastor.I' ve got help. I need
help who I am to tell himwhat we are. Probably, through my
behavior, I can get that personto come near or away from God.
(39:10):
The Church or the Christian is calledto live in good deeds, do good
things, listen, we beat peoplewith our behavior. Oh, I like
that church and why. Because theyhave a food bank, because they did
(39:31):
things for vaccines, because they dothis, because they do the other thing
without expecting anything. In return,I like how they' re serving.
Listen carefully, there are people inthe world who don' t want anything
with God, but they want Godto serve them at all times. Then
why give it to him? Whatto talk about? I' d rather
(39:52):
give her a cheek that they seethan if I' m willing to serve
you and here' s the otherone, in case you want it too.
But the point of this is thatif we have been called to do
that good deeds, now look notonly is the biblical basis. To me
is what he says about what chapterthree verse is, verse one, verse
eleven, He speaks about what arethe rules of behavior, what are the
(40:15):
norms of Christian behavior, and youcan pass it by as a quickie to
go from finishing number one. Hesays there are some needs of the standards
of our behavior and they say itin verse three, chapter three, verse
united says, remind believers who submitto the government and its officials must be
(40:36):
obedient, always willing to do whatis good. They must not slander anyone
and have to avoid lawsuits. Instead, they should be kind and show true
humility in dealings with all. Thebehavior of a Christian that the word is
required is that we respect the government, as they say in verse or one
chapter three. And the second isthat we respect everyone. Either he likes
(41:02):
us or he doesn' t likeus. God says he respects everyone.
Even if they mock you respect themthe government honors them and respect them.
Look what you' re asking for. Then look, look as he says.
(41:22):
I want you to have these rulesof behavior and I' m going
to tell you why? And soverse three to eight of the same chapter
three, number one says what itis because in our life, in the
world look what verse three says inanother time we were also fools and disobedient.
How long before they were disobedient fools? There are some of you who
(41:43):
are still foolish and disobedient, butmost of us were foolish and disobedient before.
True to say, in other timeswe were also fools of obedient ones.
We were deceived and became slaves toall kinds of passion and pleasures.
Listen to me well, there arepeople out there who are slaves of passions
(42:04):
and pleasures, and there are peoplewho, being slaves of passions and pleasures,
are fools because they do not recognizethat they are being slaves. They
have repetitive behavior. They' reacting like everything' s okay. I
give you the coolest example there is, well, or the most realistic example
(42:25):
there is is the one who smokescigarettes. The one who smokes cigarettes says
I' m gonna have a littlebriquette. You need silly mental health here.
If you' re killing with acigarette, you don' t know
that slave to this. The bodyevery fifteen minutes, every half hour asks
him to put in another cigarette sothat he will paralently go killing himself.
(42:49):
They think this is a pleasure,but they' re actually being slaves to
this. Then the word says Listenwell we before we were like that,
we are already like that. Ourlife was full of evil and envy Look,
listen to me. When I actuallytalk about what this person is who
wants nothing with God and tells meno, pastors, it' s all
(43:13):
going well with me. I'm a good person, pastor, and
I' m good at everything.Listen to me carefully. The word says
here if you are not in theways, Lord, you have a life
full of evil and envy, andnot only that. I also hate to
see that it' s the word. Our life was filled with evil and
envy and we hated each other.Such were the people before Christ' s
(43:39):
feet came. That is, friendshipsthat do not know Christ are people who
still envy each other, hate eachother, are slaves, but you,
you, are not so look atwhat Christ does the life of one verse
four and five says, But whenour Savior made known his goodness and love,
(44:02):
he saved us not by the righteousactions that we had done, but
by his mercy. Understand this,You are not saved by being a good
person. You are saved by theblood of the lamb, but the blood
of the lamb makes you a goodperson. I mean, your actions aren
(44:22):
' t going to help you fromhere to the corner, but you'
re related to God, he's going to take you here to heaven.
They understand that he says by hislove and kindness. He did not
look at all the actions that youhave done, but said to him out
of mercy. I want you tobe saved look at what you say,
for he washed us by taking awayour sins and gave us a new birth
(44:45):
and new life through the holy spirit. We' re a new creature.
Our behavior must change. When hecame to eat is the lord we changed
completely in everything. So how dowe see, how do we see this
behavior because we get something you don' t. You can' t be
(45:07):
a Christian when you' re emptywith nothing. The word says you get
something that causes your behavior to bea different one. Look what verse six
says, he poured out his spiritupon us in abundance through Jesus Christ,
our Savior. That is, thatman and woman are filled with the Holy
Spru, because the holy spruce wasnot deposited in you. The word he
(45:30):
used was that it' s fromer ramó. If you' ve trained
him your life. Christ, youare poured out of the holy scru in
your life and that is where wethen come to what it is to have
a pleasant conduct, for how Ibegan. I said that behavior can be
(45:52):
marked by the psychological or physical upbringingthat we had when we came to Christ
' s feet. My physiological behaviorlook. I remember my dad beating me
on a leash at about seven,but that guy really, really took his
last name seriously. It hit mehard And now, as I am,
(46:15):
it doesn' t create me inChrist. I' m not hurt anymore
by that pain. I love myold man. When you saw the pi
of Christ, everyone who hurt you, forgive me, I forgive you because
I am a new creature. Mybehavior has already changed. We see how
that is what we get from Christand how we in all this are exalted
(46:40):
to know this behavior. Verse eightof the same chapter says this statement is
trustworthy and I want you to insiston this teaching so that all who trust
in God dedicate themselves to making good. These teachings are good and beneficial for
(47:00):
all. There are people who listento me well, when we' re
doing the operation Felipe, there's going to be people who are going
to pull out the best cloth forpo, the best tablecloth to set the
table. People are going to sayno that Oscar and Stefano and they visited
me not if they see how Godpulled him out of the bars? See
how a young wife gave him?Look at the chamos that have eyes on
(47:23):
cardios of mine that was unfeitable,but already said it did Lindo, already
beautiful. I want Oscar to visitme, because Oscar is God' s
things. It' s nice.You' re understanding that people are going
to be anxious to receive you athome for the behavior you' re carrying,
(47:45):
for the testimony you' re bearing. Then it' s worth it,
as the Vesicle says, to shareall this. That' s why
it' s important that you recognizethe weight of your behavior. Listen well,
your behavior greatly affects your identity.I repeat, your behavior greatly affects
(48:13):
your identity. I was studying something, this is a graph that I made,
but that' s a graph Iwant to share with you. Put
the rust, please, this graphhas to do with what identity is.
And it' s three corners.Then look at this. How do you
think, is it how you act? And how do you act? Is
(48:37):
it how you feel? And howdo you feel? It' s like
you think? I repeat it againto be captured. How do you think,
is it how you act? Andhow do you act? Is that
how you feel? And how doyou feel? Is it how you think?
(49:00):
That' s how your identity,behavior is part of your identity.
That' s why I don't call you sinners here. Therefore,
here, in the Church, Ido not say that you are sinners.
When you accept Christ, you ceasedto be sinners because you were washed by
(49:27):
blood, the lamb. The wordsays that you are already children of God.
Now you understand this look at thedifference in this if I come and
constantly if we' re sinners,and that' s why we need God
how you' re going to behavelike a sinner, because I' m
(49:52):
constantly making you think like a whatlike a sinner. But if I tell
you you are a son of Godwho occasionally fails, and who does not,
who has the first stone, whohas not failed. But by you
failing that doesn' t make youa sinner, but it makes you recognize
that you have failed and then yougo and ask God for forgiveness because he
(50:16):
looks interesting the sinner sins and doesn' t care who the sinner sins and
says what I care, because eatingcake is not important to me, I
don' t care that he hurtyou, I don' t care that
you feel bad. Is that whoI am? So, is it me?
And I don' t care howyou feel. That is the sinner,
(50:39):
but the son of God, whenhe knows that he did an offense,
when he knows that he hurt someone, when he knows that he offended
the father, the son of Godcomes running at Christ' s feet to
ask forgiveness again because he has ason' s identity and not a sinner
' s. The sinner doesn't care when the son sins if he
(51:06):
knows he failed, who sinned tohimself says Lord forgive me, forgive me
for flouting his identity then. Athird is based on how you behave.
There are many people who their behavioris being stopped, that their behavior stops
(51:37):
what maturity is. There are peoplewho, in fact, their behavior prevents
them from being mature in things thatthey should have been there by now.
Some people don' t come tonew seasons because of their behavior. I
' m sorry to say this.But I' m going to give Manolo
(51:58):
' s example. Manolo, whenI met him, Manolo drank every weekend,
every day should marlo and Manolo gottired of God. I can'
(52:24):
t go on like this anymore.This behavior has me without a wife,
without children, without a job.Listen to me, there were people who
even in the drunkenness of Mano toldManolo, you have the potential to have
your own company and you know Manolodidn' t care. He kept drinking.
(52:49):
Manuel was seeing a life of whichit was us out there, until
one day he said I got tiredof this behavior. I know there'
s something better for me. Yesor no listen well, no and I
say I' m confident. Ididn' t even believe in the Holy
Spirit. I didn' t wantanything with Lilicia Mar I didn' t
(53:10):
even believe in marriage. Thank youfor the woman who had this one so
you know, that one, that' s extroverted. That' s the
way it is, and it's been and it' s been and
it' s been and it's been and it hasn' t been
(53:36):
two years, two years in theLord' s stuff The truth is it
' s no reason to applaud you. I will say because the reason to
applaud, the reason to applaud isthat God has changed his life, because
from Gemas I do not leave him. Manolot was married to drink, he
has his own company. Plus,he doesn' t have a baby on
his way, he' s gothis house. In two years, Manolo
changed his behavior, which brought hima different entity. He doesn' t
(54:05):
know that he' s not asinner He knows he' s a son
And if you water him, thenhe knows where to go, he knows
where to go? How many ofour children have made no mistakes and they
come and say Dad' s forgiveness. Then there are people who, unfortunately,
behavior prevents them from Maturen. Thereare people who, unfortunately, behave
(54:28):
as they come to new seasons.There are people who, unfortunately, their
behavior prevents them from evangelizing. Becausethere are people at work who say you
' re going to tell me aboutChrist. Guys is the first one to
insta writing is you' re evenmore with plane burnt oil. I am
going to anoint you because as yougo he speaks to me of Christ.
(54:50):
Oh, yeah, quick. Lastweek I heard some Jokes there a menm
song and now watch Talk to meabout Christ. No, no, no,
he' s already written changed myyes, but people say a change.
So people, for the spiritual,don' t understand. People don
' t understand God to make sucha quick change. But you hurt yourself
to be what it is to sharea sinful life pleasures of the world.
(55:14):
And then I wanted to talk aboutsaying leave that,' cause that'
s not for you. It's the day you leave it. I
' m leaving him. Your behavior. It may be preventing your Evangeli from
saying your behavior. It can keepyou from teaching. It is not a
question of being a good person withoutChrist, it is that Christ makes you
(55:39):
a good person. Praise please,one question. How you see yourselves are
seen as sinners or as children ofGod. Don' t honestly don'
t answer me. I want youto meditate well on that as you look
(56:04):
because the children of God receive inheritance. Sinners stay outside waiting for breadcrumbs.
What your behavior is like, howyou' re behaving, how the bastard
you' ve been told in theworld, or you want to dress like
the prodigal son who came back tothe father' s house. How you
(56:28):
want your behavior to change everything,but it doesn' t value your behavior.
How do you expect people to believethat God has made a change in
your life and see you being takenfrom a cella in the car listening to
music. How do you look likea son or a sinner because today is
(56:55):
the day? Today is the dayI can say you know I don'
t anymore, I don' twant to behave like that. There are
people who have tried everything in theworld. There are people here, in
this place, who are different partsof the world, but still have a
(57:16):
misery within them, because they areliving a behavior that they know is not
giving them. Fruit. My jobas a preacher is to expose the word
of God to you to reflect onhow you are behaving. Yes, Christ
(57:38):
brings eternal life. Christ forgives othersins, but if you are waiting for
your family to be well, thatyour marriage will not have any more trouble
giving up your life, Christ,you are wrong, because the moment you
change your behavior is the moment youare going to begin to see the clockwork
(58:00):
move in your favor. There arepeople who, in reality, need to
change their behavior right now, becauseGod' s behavior for you is one
of weight, it' s onethat you' re actually going to see
(58:21):
that you' re going to openthe doors much further by having what you
think is valuable. Here up tothe ticket, eat it, eat the
moth, eat the material, eatthe money, but they' ll never
be able to eat your salvation.It doesn' t matter what you have
(58:46):
materially It' s your behavior that' s really worth it, and your
behavior isn' t going to changeunless you say it. Christ changes my
way of being. Today I alsospeak to the introvert, which is that
the introvert I perform is not thatI prefer to keep quiet and let me
(59:07):
tell you something if you are introvertedand know jesus. You are preventing God
from using you as a tool toevangelize, because the introvert has something good
to share and it is what Godhas done within him our whole Community.

pastor of the Montesina Church and inNorth Carolina, prepare your heart to receive
a word that will lead you toGod' s truth. Today, today
(00:28):
' s practice is titled your behavior. He' s got weight. They
hate your behavior with me. He' s got weight, and it'
s not because you' re overweight, it' s your behavior. And
they understand that today many cannot havea disciple or can not evangelize because of
(00:50):
their behavior in their lives, becausebehavior prevents them from evangelizing or having disciples.
And since we are in what isthe forty days of vision with operation
Philip, we have been talking aboutthe power of prayer. But now that
next week we finish the prayer,we have already completed a week working this
(01:17):
Friday, we complete the second week, but by the third week we will
be what it is like to visitfamilies. That is important that we not
only talk about the ration, butlet' s talk about how we behave,
how our testimony is. And,unfortunately, it is sad that many
of us cannot have a disciple becauseof our behavior, because that does not
(01:38):
prevent them. How we sometimes manageourselves in certain situations makes people around us
see honestly whether we have the holyspirit within us or not, because when
you react to something people will alwaysbe pretententi sit you are Christian. True
(02:06):
yes, if something happens to youat work and people stay like they see
and what they' re going tosay is Christian this one. Let'
s see? Let' s see? Let' s see? Let'
s see? There are some whosay I wouldn' t have tolerated that
and look how he reacted. Then. People will always be measuring us for
being God’ s children, forbeing Christians in how we behave. Today
(02:28):
we' re going to be hidingthe scriptures of how your behavior as children
of God affects your evangelism, howyour behavior affects evangelism, how your behavior
affects the church where you meet,how your behavior affects your testimony, and
(02:55):
so, at the end, you' re going to understand that your behavior.
It' s heavy. Let megive this story. It' s
called the loony beam and it saysthe following on a given occasion. Plato,
in a thousand four hundred and twenty- nine to three hundred and seventy
(03:17):
- four, before Christ, reproachedhis Master Socrates for reprimanding a slave before
others, when, according to hisphilosophy, he should have done it in
private so as not to make himridiculous in front of others. You should
also have said this alone and notbefore my disciples, the Master argued.
(03:40):
Then Plato agreed with him, whilehe apologized. You can' t say
what it is like, you haveto do things, and when the time
comes that things happened like this,behave yourself. How different because the behavior
(04:01):
that should be now, when talkingabout what behavior is, I have decided
what it is to bring a littlepersonality combination. And they understand that personality
does not involve conduct. And theyunderstand this in psychology, personality is not
(04:23):
the same as behavior. Many thinkso, but it really isn' t.
Then what is a personality. Personalityare characteristics and traits that describe a
person, for example. This personis not quiet, this person does not
kill a fly, does not smoke, does not drink. It' s
(04:47):
a personality. And they understand thatpersonality in every human being begins to form
from the age of six to theage of twelve. What we are parents
and have children at that age weare definitely seeing as the personality in which
it has been formed. That's why we, as parents, when
(05:10):
we have habergers, thirteen, fourteen, fifteen, sixteen, even seventeen times,
see it as hearing, but comehere and because you are like this
because you are already formed from theage of six to the age of twelve.
Okay. That' s the personality. Now I want to accept what
behavior is, because behavior is inherentcharacteristics of a person how he acts in
(05:38):
every situation. There' s anaction behind the behavior. Behavior gives a
light of what your personality is.When you behave in a certain way,
that gives what to abdar about yourpersonality. In other words, you behave
(06:00):
is your indication of how you are. So, for example, your behavior
is a sample of consequences in yourlife are good experiences or experiences that are
bad, of which these experiences areforming our behavior. Understand that the world
(06:24):
is surrounded by people who have behaviorthey do not want to have. I
met says there' s a pastorreally is that I don' t know
why I behave like this, butmany times I end up behaving like this,
the world is surrounded by people whohave behavior that they don' t
(06:46):
want, because this behavior is resultas consequences and actions that they have had
in their life, whether by actionsby themselves or by people that are done
to them, for example. Yourbehavior can be a consequence of your upbringing,
(07:06):
it can be a consequence of yoursocial class. Your behavior can be
based on your education and, forexample, if you were a victim,
your behavior can be based on whetheryou were abused psychologically or what or physically
(07:27):
are with me. Your behavior isa reflection of how your soul is found,
not your spirit, how your soulis found. Behavior is something that
we don' t really think muchabout. But behavior is affecting your spirit,
(07:49):
from which it springs through actions andwords to all who surround it.
That' s why there are peoplewho say no, because already leave them,
already it' s going to belike that, already it' s
going to change us. We alreadytolerated your behavior. Or, for example,
if it happens to our halves you' d say, I' m
(08:11):
not surprised, because he behaves orhe behaves like ah yes, we'
re already getting to know that behavior. They now understand that behavior has spiritual
roots from which they cannot be healedunless you identify them and present them to
(08:33):
God. There are situations in yourlives that you don' t know what
you' re all about or howyou behave and God won' t be
able to deal with until you saymake a face. And actually, it
' s just that this affected me, that' s why I behave like
(08:54):
this. Let' s take alook at you Let' s give you
a perfect example. What happens whena man infers from a woman, when
a man without faith the Chense womenis the possibility is that the woman will
forgive him? The possibility now,what happens when she' s a woman,
(09:24):
what infers them from the man.The possibility is that the man won
' t go back to her.It is a behavior that is different the
same as the situation, but itreacts how different now this man was unfaithful
to him. How you think he' s going to behave with the next
(09:46):
relationship very different, based on thatprevious experience. We are creatures that based
on experiences, it' s howwe cut ourselves now. I want to
talk about this, because there's something the lord put in my heart
(10:07):
that I actually said sir why youwant me to talk about this. But
there' s one behavior that wehave today that we don' t know
what we' re doing. Andthis behavior in two terms is what is
introverted and extroverted. Introverted is aperson who carries everything inside and the extrovert
(10:35):
is a person who is friendly andall good. Let me tell you the
introvert who tends to lock himself upand has difficulty spontaneously manifesting his feelings and
thoughts. The extrovert is sympathetic andaffectionate and frankly manifests his thoughts and feelings.
(11:07):
So we see that people who areintroverted are not people who don'
t have, have a behavior,that they compress it, they actually put
it in print. If they're upset, they' re upset,
(11:28):
but not what they don' tleave behind, they don' t express
it, they won' t letyou know, they still have the same
blank faces. You don' tknow what' s going on inside,
what' s going on inside?I always remember here. I don'
t know why, but when Iwas growing up in my house, there
was a pressure cooker and when wewere going to eat beans or beans,
(11:48):
we put that depression and there weput beans. True, the beans and
how they knew I was ready.When it' s called a piquito pir
that there are many introverted people,who look like an ovia depression, that
they' re all getting inside,inside, inside, and suddenly that catapun
(12:15):
explode conste Let' s bring itnow to the people who have Christ in
their hearts. Ah where you go, because at the time of all this
look and I return the praise again. Praise is the outward expression of what
Christ has done internally in You.That is why you see some who jump
like the lambs of David and yousee others who only applaud, because those
(12:39):
who jump like the lamb David perhapsGod brought him out of the lowest and
most muddy in the world and hasmuch to thank God for. That'
s true. He spoke to mefor Mr What happens to the introverted person.
(13:01):
He may have been an introverted person, I may have been marked in
his life by what is emotional situationsof which he has not decided to express
his feelings. For example, let' s say this an introverted person,
because of this behavior that, forexample, says he or she say something,
(13:22):
say ay what stupid comment. Pleasedon' t say something like that.
I' m not going to tellmyself what' s going to be
the better person than I' mgoing to shut up, because what I
' m saying is that stupid personis going to what hold everything inside.
But it doesn' t mean hedoesn' t feel the emotions. Feel
(13:46):
the emotions, but don' tstagnate them by expressing their behavior. So
it' s one that in Englishis a plant that means it' s
a behavior that doesn' t matterwhat happens. This does not react to
the person, a person who isactually introverted. Listen carefully, you may
(14:07):
even miss special moments with your family, with your children, with your wife,
and we will go fishing. It' s not right. I don
' t want to get spontaneous.He' s not there. He doesn
' t have a behavior that yousay, wow, what' s wrong
(14:30):
with you, why you' relike that, and it' s because
he' s actually had some marksin his life that he' s actually
marking the lives of others now becauseof how he behaves around them. You
' re an introverted person. It' s not that I want you to
get out of here or because ofme, because of me, because of
(14:52):
me, I don' t wantthe introvert person to get out here saying
it' s how I can changethis inside of me, because it'
s that I don' t wantto be itself. I want to laugh
at people. I want to talkto people. I want me to actually
be able to share with people myideas, my joys, my occurrences and
be completely a person where I reflectthe joy of God through my behavior.
(15:22):
But if you' re engaged ina position that' s not your fault,
but maybe you were molded into yourupbringing. Maybe you were molded in
your youth. And now if it' s better, I stay quiet,
because the quieter, the more Idie. I see this harming your life
(15:45):
in many areas. The introverted personmust give to God any spiritual mark or
any mental experience in his upbringing sothat God can fully work in his life.
Sir, why I' m likethis, why I can' t
(16:11):
hug people, why I can't get close, why I feel more
comfortable with a small group of people, but with others I feel completely strange,
protecting myself like I don' twant to expose myself to what'
s going on. Mr Well,this day I want you to evaluate your
upbringing. You assess, actually,what marked your life for you to say,
sir, so far this behavior hascome. So much for this thing
(16:38):
that' s hurting me. Understandthat behavior does not define personality, but
it does influence it. And understandthat behavior is the reaction to an experience.
(17:03):
You can react to something as smallas if it were as big as
the atomic bomb in Hiroshima, oryou can react something as big with peace
and quiet, say quiet. Iknow it' s strong, but everything
' s gonna be okay. One' s behavior is the reaction to an
(17:30):
experience. Why is behavior important?Because, as children of God, it
is important that we be attentive tobehavior, because behavior is the first thing
we are judged by saying when Isee a church ah, you go to
a church ah. That' swhy I expect this from you You'
(17:52):
re listening without you opening your mouthI hope you' re like that.
Like this. That is more,there are people who expect us, being
Christians, to be fools. Yes, I love God, a hundred manito.
If there are no people who actuallyconfuse our behavior, with what with
our personality, then behavior is somethingthat God always, always considers important.
(18:22):
First guy four or two. Hesays to Tim Paul, Timothy. No
one but express your youth and Iam reading that it is the textual Bible.
No one but your youth, butbe an example of believers in word,
in conduct, in love, infaith, and in what? And
(18:42):
in purity listen to me well,you can say that you love everyone,
but if you have a behavior ofno one is going to want to be
with you, because it behaves abad thing that is unreasonable. They understand
what' s going on here issaying your important behaviors for what you have
(19:04):
to do. God puts behavior assomething that conditions his promises. For example,
one condition is look at this lucasI' m going to give you
(19:26):
this for Christmas, but you haveto bring me that good grades are the
condition for that rewarded. With whathe would like is that it brings me
to what I demand God is so. God uses behavior with something that conditions
his promises. Look at this andI repeat first kings eight hundred and twenty
(19:52):
- five and am reading that theliving notation now, Oh Lord God,
Israel carries out the other promise youmade to yourself. David, my father,
when I gave it to them,if your descendants take care that their
spirit, their personality, not theirbehavior and follow me faithfully, they have
(20:15):
this. You can follow someone withfaithfulness and have very bad behavior, because
God is talking to you. Inhow you behave, in how you react,
in how you look at the wordof God, in how you actually
(20:37):
look at life you get up.You open the fridge this morning. You
see only half a gallon of milk. You look up. They have no
ham, no cheese, no water. You say good, let' s
eat. It can' t be, and he' s gonna eat what
charnce' s gonna eat because there' s no chirios And when you grab
(21:03):
the cereal, you sit on thetable, made that cereal in the bowl,
and when you' re gonna pourout the spit milk or how do
you react? Thank you, sirThank you, sir. It all depends
on how you react. And evenif I trust God is like you,
then listen carefully to your behavior arethe complaints you make to God based on
(21:26):
the promises you make to God.Oh, if you believe God, being
your behavior must be quiet. Godsaid it was going to be all of
them. Why worry. Don't despair him to keep his promise.
It says here if your descendant takescare of his behavior or so other words,
(21:47):
when you say take care of him, it means that we may neglect
the behavior. It may be neglectedif your descendants take care of their behavior
and continue to entrust me with reality. Just like you did. There was
always one of God seated on thethrone of Israel. Here is a promise
(22:07):
that God made to David in Samuel' s first, where he says and
you know that if your children behaveas they should be, if they don
' t bring me pagan goddesses,if they don' t do anything about
violating the covenant that you and Ihave, I' m going to make
sure that your offspring reign every day. These are here now in the Book
(22:29):
of Kings. It is. WhenSolomon finally finishes building the temple, does
he then bring the ark to thetemple and the Presence of Jehovah enters that
place? And when he enters thatplace, Solomon says hey, so you
have kept a promise. I'm asking you, as you tell me,
to do the second. And that' s where we see it.
(22:51):
Then, as you said what isbased on behavior, then let' s
see what behavior is like based onGod' s word, because at the
time truth, if we want toplease God, we have to look for
him where here, in the Bible, you are not being invented. I
pregnant birds, I come to tellyou exactly what God expects of you as
(23:15):
behavior. Or go with me whatTito' s book does. Go to
chapter number two Tetito and let's about which behavior based on the word
of God, or what we sayto Titus, chapter two, verses from
one to ten I' m goingto read it and then I' m
going to break it down to eachof God. But look at you,
(23:36):
he says and I' m readingthe new living translation. Says the following.
Tito two tito. As for you, it fosters the kind of life
that reflects healthy teaching. It teachesolder men to exercise self- control,
to be worthy of respect, andto live wisely. They must have solid
faith and be full of love andpatience. Similarly, they teach older women
(23:59):
to live in a way that honorsGod. They must not slander anyone or
get drunk. Instead, they shouldteach others what is good. These older
women have to instruct the younger womento love, their husbands and their children
to live wisely and be pure towork at home or what is in some
(24:21):
manuscripts says to care for the home, work or care for the home to
live? Wisely to be pure orto work or to care to get to
do good and submit to their husbands, then they will not dishonor the word
of God. Verse six. Inthe same way, encourage young men to
live that wisely and be an examplefor them in doing all kinds of good
(24:45):
deeds, that whatever you do reflectsthe integrity and seriousness of your teaching,
teaches the truth so that they cannotcriticize your teaching. Then what they oppose
will be ashamed and they will havenothing wrong to say about you. Slaves
must always obey their masters and doeverything possible to please them. They should
(25:07):
not be answerable, steal or provethat they are good and absolutely trustworthy.
Then they will make teaching near God, our Savior, attractive in every way.
I finish what it is to saypractically what God expects of you as
a behavior son of God and let' s talk about what is the first
(25:29):
example he gives about which of theolder men. Verses two two thousand.
What he says teaches older men toexercise control of their own. As men,
we already believe that since we havehairs on our chest, we can
already do what comes out of myleash and sometimes we do things that hurt
(25:55):
our home. Man has to exercisehis own control. This is what you
' re actually looking at. Letme tell you something, take an example.
Someone comes and says love this Fridayand you know the body asks me
(26:18):
out. I' m going outtoday, but Daddy' s not.
The thing is, we' regonna have eyesight. I don' t
care I' m going out.I feel like going out and the man
leaves and the woman who gives what' s behind, maybe it' s
in shame or whatever. And manliving his own conscupiscence and all the true
(26:40):
man of God says oh, Iwanted to go out today, but I
' m not going out. It' s okay. We' re gonna
do this and then next time I' m out. A man who loves
God has his own control, isto be worthy of respect and to live
(27:04):
wisely. This is very important.There are many men who do not know
how to live wisely. There aremany men who don' t look at
me listen carefully. You can havewhatever you want in any part of your
life, but there are people who, even if they have everything, do
not live wisely. God asks usto see vividly. He says that man
(27:27):
must have solid faith and be fullof love and patience. That is the
behavior that we should have full oflove and patience, but that asks older
women. Women in a similar way, teach older women to live from a
(27:47):
manna that honors God whose purpose thisis. He asks us to have strong
faith, but women ask him tohonor God. You mustn' t slander
anyone or get drunk if you knowthat slander isn' t gossipy forgiveness.
(28:07):
I didn' t say. Itold him the word Ricardo Correa version RTC.
Twenty- four. They don't slander. Calumnia is talking about
false testimony, talking about someone beingthrowing stones or indirect or direct. Stop
doing it. That keeps the bazookaand here. You mustn' t warm
(28:34):
anyone up or get drunk. Instead, they should teach others that it is
good. These older women have toeducate younger women. That' s where
he goes, because this is theinteresting thing. It is the responsibility of
the older woman to teach young women, even though they still have no partner
(28:56):
in how to love who their husbands. They should not be going anywhere else
to receive this Council. It shouldbe within the body of Christ that these
older women must instruct younger women tolove their husbands and children to live,
to live wisely and to be pure, to work in the place, to
(29:19):
do good and to submit to theirhusbands. What I am talking about here
is what the Lord expects of youngwomen who love their husbands, who love
their children who live wisely and whoare pure and who work in their place.
So I don' t want tocome to what it is to say
(29:44):
is actually, that you have togive yourself the house and not anymore,
because today no one has the luxuryof having his wife and the house.
And if you have it, gloryto God, I' m glad,
but not everyone has it. Thenwe have to be wise in that,
work at home. It' sfor the wife to know that her responsibility
is. It' s been madesure everything' s flowing in the house.
We' re here You can askthe husband to help flow, but
(30:06):
it' s her responsibility. Imade it God' s word. Now
let' s talk about the youngermen. Presicle six likewise encourages young men
to live wisely. This is interestingbecause young men don' t tell you
to do this, you have todo it. Another only says look live
wisely so that you can become amature man. I, at the age
(30:33):
of twenty- one, for youdo not live wisely. And I ended
up getting a girlfriend pregnant and Ihave a beautiful son about it, and
there we have consequences that I havetruth so I am not ashamed and thank
God. God has been very goodto me, to that relationship and to
(30:55):
that boy and everything. But ifI had lived wisely, I didn'
t have a son Male out ofmy cover, because although I don'
t have him with me, Iknow I need him and even if I
(31:18):
look for him, he may notconsider me so important, because I haven
' t been in his life sincehe was born. Then young people are
told to live wisely. Let usbe wise in how to live young.
The time will come when what isyour day to be a man, where
you will have a wife, drowna car and everything will be given to
(31:40):
you. But, meanwhile, inyour youth, the behavior that God asks
of us is that we see thatwisely now in all this we see how
in verse eleven through fifteen we seethe theological basis of this behavior, because
(32:02):
this behavior has to come with atheological basis. And if we go to
what is verse eleven to fifteen thousand, what it says, for the grace
of God has already been revealed,which brings salvation to all people. We
are going to carve in depth thatyes, the salvation of God brings salvation
to all people and we are instructedto turn away from worldly life and sinful
(32:23):
pleasures. Pay attention to that.The theological basis of Christian behavior is that
you depart from worldly life and sinfulpleasures. I mean, there' s
a distinction in you than you.Actually, don' t be what it
(32:46):
' s like to live a lifewhere people say, but you' re
white, you' re black,you' re Christian, or you'
re not Christian. No, youhave to make a distinction in your life,
in your behavior, in order forme to separate you from the world.
What do you mean mundane, thingsof what, things of the world
and a life that a life ofsinful pleasures, look brothers, I will
(33:10):
do it well sincere. Sin isrich, sin brings pleasure, but sin
is death. Oh, that's easy. It' s the thing.
If you want to die, putsin in the polar hours and mouth
(33:30):
everywhere. Thus is sin, sinkills you, sin corrupts you. There
is nothing that you can prosper insin and God tells you to separate from
worldly life and sinful pleasures. Henceyou are not going to get anything,
(33:50):
because we know that sin to usis bringing consequence from which our behavior is
changing Look at how you say twelvethis while we yearn with hope for that
wonderful day that reveals the glory ofour Great God and Savior Jesus Christ God,
(34:15):
what he is saying here in theword. The following says you know
what to do with a life separatedfrom the world, behave yourself from sinful
pleasures and rejoice in the sphere thatour Savior King comes for you and comes
for me. That must be ourjoy, that must be our guide.
(34:35):
And look here is where oh myGod here is where I really don'
t paint with many who preach theword, but what do I care about
look at the gospel. The Gospelis so that you can live a victorious
(34:58):
life as long as our king returns. The word says we' re going
to go from Glory to Glory,when in heaven we' re not going
to say Gloria Gloria, as longas we live here on earth. Then
I shouldn' t be begging forbread. I' m not a speartail,
(35:20):
I' m not a shame,I' m a spearhead. I
am the son of God, ofwhom if I seek the kingdom of God
and his righteousness, the word saysthat the rest will be added. Listen
to the rest. As long asI live on this earth, there are
many people who focus on saying oh, when Christ comes, we will be
(35:44):
walking through the streets of Gold,through the seas of Crystal. Yes,
but while you' re here,you' re living bitterly, you'
re living religiously contracted, you're completely with a false marriage. Your
children are getting lost because you arenot applying the principles of God’ s
Kingdom behavior in your life. Jesuswants you to live a victorious life here
(36:10):
on earth. When we' rein heaven, we' re not going
to evangelize anyone, we' renot going to beat anyone. Then who
are we going to convince there,no one, because we' re all
there now. The point is thatwe make up for it. People here
look at you. You decide toworship Balaam, you know what. I
' d rather love her now andfor you to see. While you'
(36:31):
re looking for money, I'm looking for God' s Kingdom and
you know what God gives me.It not only gives me salvation and eternal
life, but it also gives meprosperity, gives me family, gives me
joy, gives me joy. I' m looking for the catcher, I
can get you with the ticket,but this one gives me more than a
ticket. Then you say hey,but I want to know that God you
(36:59):
know by your behavior. Others mustknow the God you know. Then we
must live with wisdom and righteousness andwith a devotion to God. We must
generate with hope the revelation of ourJesus. When Christ appears, you'
re going to tell him that hedidn' t believe you saw I told
(37:22):
you there he comes and you stayed, you look at him boy I told
you that he came for us,he came with us, look in a
(37:43):
white cloud repent stop living a lifein sin, that there' s nothing
good for you. Another thing aboutbehavior. Christians is verse fourteenmpre tells you
he gave his life to free usfrom all kinds of sin amen, to
deliver us and to make us hisps people fully committed to doing what canticles
(38:06):
to make good meals when we meetfor events. Not the word that we
have to do good deeds. TheChurch is the example of the world out
there that we do that good deeds. This is where, in reality,
(38:28):
many people are surprised because they cometo the Church look at the other days.
He' s calling someone for help. So I say well, I
could be a stubborn pastor and sayno, you don' t go to
the Church, you don' tknow God, it won' t help
you. Go somewhere else. Hey, if someone who doesn' t know
(38:50):
Christ is calling me a pastor.I' ve got help. I need
help who I am to tell himwhat we are. Probably, through my
behavior, I can get that personto come near or away from God.
(39:10):
The Church or the Christian is calledto live in good deeds, do good
things, listen, we beat peoplewith our behavior. Oh, I like
that church and why. Because theyhave a food bank, because they did
(39:31):
things for vaccines, because they dothis, because they do the other thing
without expecting anything. In return,I like how they' re serving.
Listen carefully, there are people inthe world who don' t want anything
with God, but they want Godto serve them at all times. Then
why give it to him? Whatto talk about? I' d rather
(39:52):
give her a cheek that they seethan if I' m willing to serve
you and here' s the otherone, in case you want it too.
But the point of this is thatif we have been called to do
that good deeds, now look notonly is the biblical basis. To me
is what he says about what chapterthree verse is, verse one, verse
eleven, He speaks about what arethe rules of behavior, what are the
(40:15):
norms of Christian behavior, and youcan pass it by as a quickie to
go from finishing number one. Hesays there are some needs of the standards
of our behavior and they say itin verse three, chapter three, verse
united says, remind believers who submitto the government and its officials must be
(40:36):
obedient, always willing to do whatis good. They must not slander anyone
and have to avoid lawsuits. Instead, they should be kind and show true
humility in dealings with all. Thebehavior of a Christian that the word is
required is that we respect the government, as they say in verse or one
chapter three. And the second isthat we respect everyone. Either he likes
(41:02):
us or he doesn' t likeus. God says he respects everyone.
Even if they mock you respect themthe government honors them and respect them.
Look what you' re asking for. Then look, look as he says.
(41:22):
I want you to have these rulesof behavior and I' m going
to tell you why? And soverse three to eight of the same chapter
three, number one says what itis because in our life, in the
world look what verse three says inanother time we were also fools and disobedient.
How long before they were disobedient fools? There are some of you who
(41:43):
are still foolish and disobedient, butmost of us were foolish and disobedient before.
True to say, in other timeswe were also fools of obedient ones.
We were deceived and became slaves toall kinds of passion and pleasures.
Listen to me well, there arepeople out there who are slaves of passions
(42:04):
and pleasures, and there are peoplewho, being slaves of passions and pleasures,
are fools because they do not recognizethat they are being slaves. They
have repetitive behavior. They' reacting like everything' s okay. I
give you the coolest example there is, well, or the most realistic example
(42:25):
there is is the one who smokescigarettes. The one who smokes cigarettes says
I' m gonna have a littlebriquette. You need silly mental health here.
If you' re killing with acigarette, you don' t know
that slave to this. The bodyevery fifteen minutes, every half hour asks
him to put in another cigarette sothat he will paralently go killing himself.
(42:49):
They think this is a pleasure,but they' re actually being slaves to
this. Then the word says Listenwell we before we were like that,
we are already like that. Ourlife was full of evil and envy Look,
listen to me. When I actuallytalk about what this person is who
wants nothing with God and tells meno, pastors, it' s all
(43:13):
going well with me. I'm a good person, pastor, and
I' m good at everything.Listen to me carefully. The word says
here if you are not in theways, Lord, you have a life
full of evil and envy, andnot only that. I also hate to
see that it' s the word. Our life was filled with evil and
envy and we hated each other.Such were the people before Christ' s
(43:39):
feet came. That is, friendshipsthat do not know Christ are people who
still envy each other, hate eachother, are slaves, but you,
you, are not so look atwhat Christ does the life of one verse
four and five says, But whenour Savior made known his goodness and love,
(44:02):
he saved us not by the righteousactions that we had done, but
by his mercy. Understand this,You are not saved by being a good
person. You are saved by theblood of the lamb, but the blood
of the lamb makes you a goodperson. I mean, your actions aren
(44:22):
' t going to help you fromhere to the corner, but you'
re related to God, he's going to take you here to heaven.
They understand that he says by hislove and kindness. He did not
look at all the actions that youhave done, but said to him out
of mercy. I want you tobe saved look at what you say,
for he washed us by taking awayour sins and gave us a new birth
(44:45):
and new life through the holy spirit. We' re a new creature.
Our behavior must change. When hecame to eat is the lord we changed
completely in everything. So how dowe see, how do we see this
behavior because we get something you don' t. You can' t be
(45:07):
a Christian when you' re emptywith nothing. The word says you get
something that causes your behavior to bea different one. Look what verse six
says, he poured out his spiritupon us in abundance through Jesus Christ,
our Savior. That is, thatman and woman are filled with the Holy
Spru, because the holy spruce wasnot deposited in you. The word he
(45:30):
used was that it' s fromer ramó. If you' ve trained
him your life. Christ, youare poured out of the holy scru in
your life and that is where wethen come to what it is to have
a pleasant conduct, for how Ibegan. I said that behavior can be
(45:52):
marked by the psychological or physical upbringingthat we had when we came to Christ
' s feet. My physiological behaviorlook. I remember my dad beating me
on a leash at about seven,but that guy really, really took his
last name seriously. It hit mehard And now, as I am,
(46:15):
it doesn' t create me inChrist. I' m not hurt anymore
by that pain. I love myold man. When you saw the pi
of Christ, everyone who hurt you, forgive me, I forgive you because
I am a new creature. Mybehavior has already changed. We see how
that is what we get from Christand how we in all this are exalted
(46:40):
to know this behavior. Verse eightof the same chapter says this statement is
trustworthy and I want you to insiston this teaching so that all who trust
in God dedicate themselves to making good. These teachings are good and beneficial for
(47:00):
all. There are people who listento me well, when we' re
doing the operation Felipe, there's going to be people who are going
to pull out the best cloth forpo, the best tablecloth to set the
table. People are going to sayno that Oscar and Stefano and they visited
me not if they see how Godpulled him out of the bars? See
how a young wife gave him?Look at the chamos that have eyes on
(47:23):
cardios of mine that was unfeitable,but already said it did Lindo, already
beautiful. I want Oscar to visitme, because Oscar is God' s
things. It' s nice.You' re understanding that people are going
to be anxious to receive you athome for the behavior you' re carrying,
(47:45):
for the testimony you' re bearing. Then it' s worth it,
as the Vesicle says, to shareall this. That' s why
it' s important that you recognizethe weight of your behavior. Listen well,
your behavior greatly affects your identity.I repeat, your behavior greatly affects
(48:13):
your identity. I was studying something, this is a graph that I made,
but that' s a graph Iwant to share with you. Put
the rust, please, this graphhas to do with what identity is.
And it' s three corners.Then look at this. How do you
think, is it how you act? And how do you act? Is
(48:37):
it how you feel? And howdo you feel? It' s like
you think? I repeat it againto be captured. How do you think,
is it how you act? Andhow do you act? Is that
how you feel? And how doyou feel? Is it how you think?
(49:00):
That' s how your identity,behavior is part of your identity.
That' s why I don't call you sinners here. Therefore,
here, in the Church, Ido not say that you are sinners.
When you accept Christ, you ceasedto be sinners because you were washed by
(49:27):
blood, the lamb. The wordsays that you are already children of God.
Now you understand this look at thedifference in this if I come and
constantly if we' re sinners,and that' s why we need God
how you' re going to behavelike a sinner, because I' m
(49:52):
constantly making you think like a whatlike a sinner. But if I tell
you you are a son of Godwho occasionally fails, and who does not,
who has the first stone, whohas not failed. But by you
failing that doesn' t make youa sinner, but it makes you recognize
that you have failed and then yougo and ask God for forgiveness because he
(50:16):
looks interesting the sinner sins and doesn' t care who the sinner sins and
says what I care, because eatingcake is not important to me, I
don' t care that he hurtyou, I don' t care that
you feel bad. Is that whoI am? So, is it me?
And I don' t care howyou feel. That is the sinner,
(50:39):
but the son of God, whenhe knows that he did an offense,
when he knows that he hurt someone, when he knows that he offended
the father, the son of Godcomes running at Christ' s feet to
ask forgiveness again because he has ason' s identity and not a sinner
' s. The sinner doesn't care when the son sins if he
(51:06):
knows he failed, who sinned tohimself says Lord forgive me, forgive me
for flouting his identity then. Athird is based on how you behave.
There are many people who their behavioris being stopped, that their behavior stops
(51:37):
what maturity is. There are peoplewho, in fact, their behavior prevents
them from being mature in things thatthey should have been there by now.
Some people don' t come tonew seasons because of their behavior. I
' m sorry to say this.But I' m going to give Manolo
(51:58):
' s example. Manolo, whenI met him, Manolo drank every weekend,
every day should marlo and Manolo gottired of God. I can'
(52:24):
t go on like this anymore.This behavior has me without a wife,
without children, without a job.Listen to me, there were people who
even in the drunkenness of Mano toldManolo, you have the potential to have
your own company and you know Manolodidn' t care. He kept drinking.
(52:49):
Manuel was seeing a life of whichit was us out there, until
one day he said I got tiredof this behavior. I know there'
s something better for me. Yesor no listen well, no and I
say I' m confident. Ididn' t even believe in the Holy
Spirit. I didn' t wantanything with Lilicia Mar I didn' t
(53:10):
even believe in marriage. Thank youfor the woman who had this one so
you know, that one, that' s extroverted. That' s the
way it is, and it's been and it' s been and
it' s been and it's been and it hasn' t been
(53:36):
two years, two years in theLord' s stuff The truth is it
' s no reason to applaud you. I will say because the reason to
applaud, the reason to applaud isthat God has changed his life, because
from Gemas I do not leave him. Manolot was married to drink, he
has his own company. Plus,he doesn' t have a baby on
his way, he' s gothis house. In two years, Manolo
changed his behavior, which brought hima different entity. He doesn' t
(54:05):
know that he' s not asinner He knows he' s a son
And if you water him, thenhe knows where to go, he knows
where to go? How many ofour children have made no mistakes and they
come and say Dad' s forgiveness. Then there are people who, unfortunately,
behavior prevents them from Maturen. Thereare people who, unfortunately, behave
(54:28):
as they come to new seasons.There are people who, unfortunately, their
behavior prevents them from evangelizing. Becausethere are people at work who say you
' re going to tell me aboutChrist. Guys is the first one to
insta writing is you' re evenmore with plane burnt oil. I am
going to anoint you because as yougo he speaks to me of Christ.
(54:50):
Oh, yeah, quick. Lastweek I heard some Jokes there a menm
song and now watch Talk to meabout Christ. No, no, no,
he' s already written changed myyes, but people say a change.
So people, for the spiritual,don' t understand. People don
' t understand God to make sucha quick change. But you hurt yourself
to be what it is to sharea sinful life pleasures of the world.
(55:14):
And then I wanted to talk aboutsaying leave that,' cause that'
s not for you. It's the day you leave it. I
' m leaving him. Your behavior. It may be preventing your Evangeli from
saying your behavior. It can keepyou from teaching. It is not a
question of being a good person withoutChrist, it is that Christ makes you
(55:39):
a good person. Praise please,one question. How you see yourselves are
seen as sinners or as children ofGod. Don' t honestly don'
t answer me. I want youto meditate well on that as you look
(56:04):
because the children of God receive inheritance. Sinners stay outside waiting for breadcrumbs.
What your behavior is like, howyou' re behaving, how the bastard
you' ve been told in theworld, or you want to dress like
the prodigal son who came back tothe father' s house. How you
(56:28):
want your behavior to change everything,but it doesn' t value your behavior.
How do you expect people to believethat God has made a change in
your life and see you being takenfrom a cella in the car listening to
music. How do you look likea son or a sinner because today is
(56:55):
the day? Today is the dayI can say you know I don'
t anymore, I don' twant to behave like that. There are
people who have tried everything in theworld. There are people here, in
this place, who are different partsof the world, but still have a
(57:16):
misery within them, because they areliving a behavior that they know is not
giving them. Fruit. My jobas a preacher is to expose the word
of God to you to reflect onhow you are behaving. Yes, Christ
(57:38):
brings eternal life. Christ forgives othersins, but if you are waiting for
your family to be well, thatyour marriage will not have any more trouble
giving up your life, Christ,you are wrong, because the moment you
change your behavior is the moment youare going to begin to see the clockwork

move in your favor. There arepeople who, in reality, need to
change their behavior right now, becauseGod' s behavior for you is one
of weight, it' s onethat you' re actually going to see
(58:21):
that you' re going to openthe doors much further by having what you
think is valuable. Here up tothe ticket, eat it, eat the
moth, eat the material, eatthe money, but they' ll never
be able to eat your salvation.It doesn' t matter what you have
(58:46):
materially It' s your behavior that' s really worth it, and your
behavior isn' t going to changeunless you say it. Christ changes my
way of being. Today I alsospeak to the introvert, which is that

to share and it is what Godhas done within him our whole Community.
