Ephesians 4:17-32New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition (NRSVCE)
17 Now this I affirm and insist on in the Lord: you must no longer live as the Gentiles live, in the futility of their minds. 18 They are darkened in their understanding, alienated from the life of God because of their ignorance and hardness of heart.
19 They have lost all sensitivity and have abandoned themselves to licentiousness, greedy to practice every kind of impurity.
20 That is not the way you learned Christ!
21 For surely you have heard about him and were taught in him, as truth is in Jesus.
22 You were taught to put away your former way of life, your old self, corrupt and deluded by its lusts,
23 and to be renewed in the spirit of your minds,
24 and to clothe yourselves with the new self, created according to the likeness of God in true righteousness and holiness.
25 So then, putting away falsehood, let all of us speak the truth to our neighbors, for we are members of one another.
26 Be angry but do not sin; do not let the sun go down on your anger,
27 and do not make room for the devil.
28 Thieves must give up stealing; rather let them labor and work honestly with their own hands, so as to have something to share with the needy.
29 Let no evil talk come out of your mouths, but only what is useful for building up, as there is need, so that your words may give grace to those who hear.
30 And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, with which you were marked with a seal for the day of redemption.
31 Put away from you all bitterness and wrath and anger and wrangling and slander, together with all malice,
32 and be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ has forgiven you.
Galatians 5:19-24Amplified Bible (AMP)
19 Now the practices of the sinful nature are clearly evident: they are sexual immorality, impurity, sensuality (total irresponsibility, lack of self-control), 20 idolatry, sorcery, hostility, strife, jealousy, fits of anger, disputes, dissensions, factions [that promote heresies],
21 envy, drunkenness, riotous behavior, and other things like these. I warn you beforehand, just as I did previously, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.
22 But the fruit of the Spirit [the result of His presence within us] is love [unselfish concern for others], joy, [inner] peace, patience [not the ability to wait, but how we act while waiting], kindness, goodness, faithfulness,
23 gentleness, self-control. Against such things there is no law.
24 And those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the sinful nature together with its passions and appetites.

5 Examine and test and evaluate your own selves to see whether you are holding to your faith and showing the proper fruits of it. Test and prove yourselves

00:00 Praise Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Brothers and sisters, today the power of Christ Daily 15 February 2016 titled do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God. Do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God. Brothers and sisters, this is a very alarming statement.
00:18 Do not grieve. This is a command. Do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God.
00:22 The Spirit of God, you know, can you imagine that? But many do not even know such a scripture exists. And some do know that scripture exists, do not understand what it means. And some, they’re talking about people who call themselves Christians or Christians.
00:37 They do not know the seriousness of this. Some do not care what to do. Because let’s remember Father God through the Word of God, Jesus Christ, already written down to say, those who continuing to practice sin are born of the devil.
00:53 I mean, you sin and sin and you don’t care. You continue doing they. Father God says clearly the Spirit of God, the Word of God says they are born of the devil.
01:02 Those who are born of the Spirit of God will not want to sin. Yes, we can fall into sin, but the intention is not to fall into, not to do sin. But if you fall into sin under circumstances like fear and suddenly you lied or something, the boss told something and then you feared and lied.
01:18 I’ve dealt with this in many segments. Then in such a fear, then immediately there will be conviction. There will be a disturbance in your spirit.
01:25 Why the Holy Spirit will be disturbing you. See, you have sinned. You have sinned.
01:30 Now the only way to get sin out is confess. Confess with a humble heart. Confess to Jesus Christ.
01:36 Confess to Lord. I’m sorry, Lord. And then also confess to one another.
01:41 He says the Scriptures are very clear. Confess to one another. Go and settle with each other.
01:46 Who the brothers and sisters in Christ. Now for the others, if you done something, go and ask for forgiveness. If you’ve done something, willing to take the consequences.
01:58 Why we do not want to sin anymore. We concern ourselves with eternity. Therefore, if we keep on looking at earthly things only or worldly things all the time and refusing to look at the heavenly things, the things where your citizenship is, your citizenship is from heaven.
02:16 We keep forgetting to look there. Don’t bother to look there. And keep on looking at earthly things and worldly things.
02:22 Yesterday. The message is clear. Message is clear.
02:26 You say so now how? The message is that you will not enter the kingdom of God. You keep on doing the worldly things, will not inherit the kingdom of God. Brothers and sisters, today.
02:38 And that is called being the enemies of the cross of Christ yesterday that dealt with it. If everybody, the person who keeps on looking at the worldly things and the only worldly things, only worldly things, only earthly matters. Only earthly matters, never heavenly matters.
02:52 That means you have become an enemy of the cross of Christ. Let us not be enemies. There is hope and there is solution here.
02:59 When Jesus Christ and the word of God tells us this, this, the Word of God tells us all this. There is a solution. He is not telling us.
03:07 That’s why the word of God says rebuking from the word of God, the word of God rebukes us is actually encouragement. Why there is hope. There is a direction.
03:17 There’s eternity. Now today I’m reading from the Catholic addition. Ephesians 4:17.
03:24 Ephesians 4:17 is now this I affirm and assist before that. Ephesians 4 and I’ll jump across the weather. Do not grieve the Holy Spirit verse is there.
03:41 And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God with with which you are masked. And a seal for the day of redemption. We have been marked.
03:49 Can you imagine how powerful that is? Just think of it, meditate on it. Jesus Christ has sent the Holy Spirit. Father God has sent the Holy Spirit because Jesus Christ had to go back.
03:59 And then Father God who sent the Holy Spirit, the Holy Spirit came. And then when we are born in the Spirit, born of the Spirit, not born of flesh and blood, then we have been marked. Marked for redemption, for the day of redemption with the seal.
04:15 And the Word says, do not grieve the Spirit of God. Do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God. Now Ephesians 4:17 onwards, I will read this.
04:23 So what does it mean? Do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God. How do we do this? We should know by doing these things. We are grieving.
04:31 So we stop doing that. How? By the power of Jesus Christ, by the blood of Jesus Christ, by the name of Jesus Christ. We begin to meditate on the Scriptures.
04:40 And we begin to meditate on the Scriptures. We will change. Our heart and mind will change because we are spirit being born of the Spirit of God.
04:48 But our heart and mind is still this mess up. So we have to deal with these fellows. So now Ephesians 4:17.
04:55 Now this I affirm and insist on in the Lord. You must no longer live as the Gentiles live in the futility of their minds. First command.
05:05 No longer live as the unbelievers live in the futility of their minds. They think this way. No need to go about those unbelievers.
05:13 Now I go back to myself. I used to live in the futility of my mind. Can do this, can do that.
05:20 I will then do this. Okay, some problem came. Okay, we’ll do this way, we’ll do that way.
05:24 We’ll solve this. We’ll go and see so and so. All that will go on the mind.
05:29 Completely ignoring one big elephant in the room, which I do not know. I did not see the time. The elephant room is Satan.
05:36 The devil came to steal, kill and destroy two our own heart and mind. Our heart is treacherously wicked. Another elephant in the room.
05:44 Our elephant in the room is English word. They use that to say there’s a big thing there nobody wants to see. Everybody ignore, ignore them and look as if that doesn’t exist.
05:53 Our heart is treacherously wicked. Most Christians do not know or even do not know it exists, or do not want to know it exists or refuse to believe because they have a false belief whereby they say, once I’m born again, my heart all changed already. It’s not true.
06:09 If our heart has changed, all of us will be perfect from the day one after being born again, after accepting Jesus Christ into our hearts. That’s what you say. You can’t accept Jesus Christ in the heart first, it’s in the Spirit.
06:21 Accept Jesus Christ in the Spirit. We are willing to submit ourselves so our spirit is washed by the blood of Jesus Christ. By accepting Jesus Christ, our spirit, man has been given life because it was dead in sin before.
06:35 Now, brothers and sisters, now here it says, no longer live as the unbelievers do in the futility of their minds. So when you begin to live according to what your mind is telling, we are going to get a lot of mess. That means we are not being led by the Spirit of God.
06:51 We are being led by our own minds. And furthermore, our own minds have not been renewed in the Spirit. That’s why there is a command somewhere, be renewed in the Spirit and to be renewed in the spirit of your minds.
07:03 Now next verse 18. They are darkened in their understanding, alienated from the life of God because of the ignorance and hardness of heart. There are two elements.
07:12 Why we were all like that, why I was like that. I’m darkened in my understanding. So the way God says, Father, God says through the word of God.
07:20 No longer live as unbelievers do in the futility of their minds, because they have been darkened in their understanding. So I have been darkened in my understanding, before I came to Lord Jesus Christ, before he brought me, before he drew me and arrested me and settled me, despite my own nonsense, in spite of myself. Alienate from the life of God because of the ignorance and hardness of heart.
07:41 Why ignorance? One has hardness of heart. Don’t want to listen. I’ve seen this.
07:47 When we are showing scripture to people, they don’t listen. Some of them terrible. And then we say, look, it’s not me saying this is the word of God saying, no, no, no, there’s another interpretation or something.
07:58 Then read for yourself. Nothing. We can sue.
08:01 Read several interpretations to get the right one. What they are doing? They’re looking for interpretation that suits them. Suits their darkened understanding.
08:10 They want or their way. I want my way. So I look for interpretation that I want.
08:15 Now, just like a child, you know, ask a mother something. Cannot get. Go to the father, go and ask everybody until they get something.
08:19 Go to the aunties, go to the uncles. Because they want their way. So Brothers, this is today.
08:30 19. They have lost all sensitivity and have abandoned themselves to licentiousness. Greedy to practice every kind of impurity.
08:40 Now this is what happens when you are darkened in the understanding and then alienated from the life of God. And ignorant. Hardness of greed comes greed comes greed comes more and more and more.
08:51 Practice more and more of the same evil things. Practicing more and more. It was happening to me.
08:56 It happened to me. Became more and more drunk. I started one beer years ago.
09:00 After that became more and more and more and more and more and more and more and all kinds of drinks drunk. It comes worse and worse because they darken the understanding. One thing, okay, next thing.
09:11 This is not the way you learned Christ. This is 2020. The Scriptures are telling.
09:15 That is not the way you learned Christ. For surely you have heard about him and were taught in him. As truth is in Christ.
09:22 In Jesus. As truth is in Jesus. 22.
09:25 You are taught to put away your former way of life. Your old self corrupt and deluded by its lust. So our old self was corrupted and deluded by its lust.
09:35 Deluded means conflict. Delusion. Deceived by the lust.
09:39 The lust of our old self. Our old self, the heart and mind. No, they want the old thing.
09:43 We are told to put away that. So put on the new man. Isn’t it now? And to be renewed in the spirit of your mind.
09:50 In the spirit one spirit. Spirit of your mind. 24.
09:53 And to clothe yourself with a new self created according to the likeness of God in true righteousness and holiness. And to clothe yourself. I have to clothe myself with the new self created according to the likeness of God in true righteousness and holiness.
10:12 Now my spirit man has been created in true righteousness holiness. Now this true righteousness holiness must transfer to my mind and my heart. Therefore it must be renewed in the spirit of my mind.
10:23 So in this one it’s now. 24 so then, putting away falsehood, let all speak the truth to our neighbors, for we are members of one another, members in these neighbors. I am brothers and sisters in Christ, speaking the truth to our neighbors, to one another, speaking to one another.
10:44 We are members of one another. 26 Be angry and do not sin and do not let the sun go down on your anger. This I have spoken in length another place, because anger is spiritual.
10:55 You go to sleep, do not let the sun go down. Anger means do not go to sleep. Finally, with the anger in you, evening itself, you should have already dealt with it.
11:05 If not, the spirit of anger will be waxing and hammering your spirit man all night long your body is sleeping and you get up with all kinds of problems unrested. And of course sickness also will come now. That is why God said, do not let the sun go down on your anger.
11:21 Be angry and do not sin. Sometimes people may provoke you and your natural anger may come up. But if you begin to sin and all that and the spirit of anger will take over, and the spirit of anger is a demon, you can’t deal with it unless in the name of Jesus Christ commanded you to go.
11:37 27 do not make room for the devil. Do not give the devil a foothold. Be angry and do not sin.
11:43 Do not let the sun go down on your anger. Next word is, do not make room for the devil. Do not give the devil a foothold because you are angry and go to sleep evening you don’t deal with it, you will settle it.
11:53 You are going to give the devil a foothold and he is going to take control. The only way is the name of Jesus Christ. You cast him out and then you forgive and all that.
12:03 These thieves must give up stealing. Rather let them work and labor honestly with their own hands so as to have something to share with the needy. 29 Let no evil talk come out of your mouths, but only what is useful for building up as there is need no evil talk, no gossiping, no slander, no murmuring, and do not grieve the Holy Spirit with which you are marked with a seal for the day of redemption.
12:31 31 put away from you all bitterness and wrath and anger and wrangling and slander together with all malice. And be kind to one another, kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ has forgiven you. Now brothers and sisters, all that the Word of God says from 17, say, say, say.
12:52 And then in 30 he says, do not give the Holy Spirit. That means now the main issue here is to put away our old self and not to live like the unbelievers in the futility of your minds. So when your mind begins to kick in, you better begin to go to the Word of God and check whether your mind is thinking right or is your mind thinking as the world is thinking.
13:16 Now, if you only go to the Word of God, you will see that the Word of God is very clear. In that instance, if you don’t know how to search that particular scripture for yourself, call the Moderator. Somebody will search it for you.
13:28 Go to the graceoflife.com www.graceoflife.com and there is a list of people that you can ask help. They will find the Scriptures for you and give to you.
13:38 And you meditate on the Scriptures. They will counsel you even. They will pray with you even.
13:43 Because we want every soul to be presented as a chaste virgin to Christ. And they do all this happily, willingly, joyfully unto Christ. Unto Christ.
13:53 Now, brothers and sisters, this is very clear. If we do not put our old selves away and put on the new self that is in Christ, given by Spirit of Christ, the righteousness, holiness, then we are grieving the Holy Spirit. When you grieve the Holy Spirit.
14:08 Now understand this. Let’s just say one person grieves the Holy Spirit all day long, all the time, and then suddenly you got trouble already. Oh, let me pray.
14:17 Pray for me. Pray for me. It’s not going to work.
14:19 First, why? Because. Pray for me. For me.
14:23 You have to accept Jesus Christ. You have to accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior. Because we’re going to call on Jesus Christ, heal you.
14:32 But then if you do not accept Jesus Christ, you do not accept His Word. I mean, you do not accept Jesus Christ means you do not accept the Word of God, which is Jesus Christ. Now, we do not accept the Word of God and then you want everybody to pray.
14:44 It may not work. That’s why I said we have to teach people. We are teaching people to pray.
14:50 Take the I will pray and begin to pray every day. Do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God. Do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God by doing all this nonsense.
14:59 Now we are changed. We are Bought by blood, precious blood. He bought.
15:03 He suffered like that to still precious blood. And with the blood just say blood of Jesus. Blood of Jesus also can.
15:10 What more we need? Even you don’t know scripture, immediately got trouble. Blood of Jesus, blood of Jesus. Blood of Jesus.
15:16 And the things will go away. Forgive all you see. You have to forgive without forgiveness.
15:21 Jesus Christ already said, father God will not forgive you. If you do not forgive, Father God will not forgive you. And there are some teachings which are false.
15:29 We say, no, no. Once you accept it as being a Christian, if you didn’t forgive also, it’s okay. Not true.
15:34 They are sending you to damnation. Better remember wolves and sheep clothing are lying to you. They’re giving you a feel good factor.
15:41 Feel good factor is not going to get you to heaven. The truth is going to get you to heaven. And his name is Jesus Christ.
15:46 Brothers and sisters, today, let’s understand this. Please meditate on this. Ephesians 4, 1732 in any translation of Bible.
15:55 You got any Bible? Take and read that. Meditate on it. Because you do not want to grieve the Holy Spirit.
16:01 And you keep grieving the Holy Spirit also. Remember when you got problems, first repent. Don’t run away.
16:07 Don’t say, oh, I’ve been grieving the Holy Spirit. So now I cannot, I cannot ask. I’m in trouble.
16:11 I cannot pray. I cannot ask him. He will not do anything for me.
16:14 Not true. You come to him, ask for forgiveness first. But you don’t come to him.
16:18 Come to Father God or Jesus Christ and say, I, I want this, I want that. Help me healing or whatever. First repent.
16:26 Say, I’m sorry, I’ve sinned. I don’t want to sin anymore. I’ve sinned against you as God, Jesus Christ has sinned against you.
16:32 Forgive me. Wash my sins. First deal with the sin issue.
16:35 Because 80% of illnesses come from sin issue. I’ve dealt with that again in some treatment. Brothers and sisters, today, remember when you have done all these things, when you have a problem and you’re running to God, don’t run away.
16:47 Run to Jesus Christ and ask for forgiveness. First deal with the sin. Not straight with the issue.
16:52 Oh, pray for me, settle me. Won’t work because the devil is only going to hammer you. In Jesus Christ’s name, I pray you will do this.

Philippians 3:17-21Amplified Bible (AMP)
17 Brothers and sisters, together follow my example and observe those who live by the pattern we gave you. 18 For there are many, of whom I have often told you, and now tell you even with tears, who live as enemies of the cross of Christ [rejecting and opposing His way of salvation], 19 whose fate is destruction, whose god is their belly [their worldly appetite, their sensuality, their vanity], and whose glory is in their shame— who focus their mind on earthly and temporal things.
20 But [we are different, because] our citizenship is in heaven. And from there we eagerly await [the coming of] the Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ;
21 who, by exerting that power which enables Him even to subject everything to Himself, will [not only] transform [but completely refashion] our earthly bodies so that they will be like His glorious resurrected body.

00:00 Praise Jesus Christ of Nazareth Brothers and sisters, today the power of Christ Daily 14 February 2016 A Sunday Enemies of the cross of Christ Enemies of the cross of Christ Brothers and sisters, yesterday when I listening back after posting the recording then I found that I cleared the blew my nose so loudly a sister has given a formula, you know, to take at night to clear the phlegm but by the time afternoon comes, even after this one hour or so I won’t have all this and fantastic, very well, so I forget. So then the morning this thing comes and bothers me. So we will know that the enemy Jesus, the enemy our enemy Satan. Of course we’ll try to stop all these recordings and all that but thank Jesus Christ has given me the strength to get up in the morning and do this daily, daily brothers and sisters, thank Jesus Christ because by God committing me to do this, it also gives me direction.
01:10 Every day studying something, thinking of people you know, it’s a blessing for me. Thank Jesus Christ of Nazareth. So please excuse me for this, this sudden loud blowing of the nose.
01:15 Thank Jesus Christ now praise Jesus Christ. Today brothers and sisters, many are going to church. Sunday many are going to church, but many are enemies of the cross of Christ.
01:30 That’s what the Bible says. Many are enemies of the cross of Christ. Now what is these enemies of cross of Christ? Let’s look at the scripture first.
01:38 Before that let’s look at this. There are certain fundamental scriptures we always quote in the emails. It will always be there.
01:45 One is examining ourselves. Two is doer of the Word. We have to be doer of the Word, otherwise it’s not going to work for us.
01:52 So those who are not doers of the Word, please become doers of the Word. How Looking at the Word particular, particular Word of God for that particular issue or circumstance or character building or whatever and then begin to meditate against your conduct. And then after that telling Jesus Christ lord, I do not want this, I want dead that one you want me to become.
02:11 And then when you think like that, then the Word of God will change you. It will remind you. The Spirit of God will remind you.
02:18 When you’re going about to do that, let us say it again, anger or impatience. Because when you focus on patience and finally you begin to abort being patient, the Spirit of God reminds you, no, no, hold, stand, don’t rush or something. And you will know in your spirit, the impression in your heart will be there and you will stop and it will be changed and you will say hey, after a few months of this After a few weeks of this, you will find that you are changing from glory to glory.
02:47 Now the other scriptures that I remind myself for myself is if anyone thinks himself to be something, when he is nothing, he deceives himself. So I better remind myself every day. I am nothing.
02:57 I am nothing without Christ in Christ. I can do all things through Christ Jesus, but without Christ, I am nothing. I deceive myself.
03:05 Then the other one is those who think they know something do not know anything yet that they ought to know. I remind that myself. Why, after knowing this and knowing that, the heart will begin to get prideful.
03:18 This is normal, the normal attack. The heart is treacherously wicked. Treacherously wicked means treason.
03:25 Treason means, you know, it actually means the right governance. Who supposed to govern me? The Spirit. My spirit supposed to govern my body, my heart and mind.
03:36 But my heart wants to govern me. My heart wants to govern my spirit, which has become life in Christ. Life by the Spirit, given life by the Spirit of Christ.
03:45 Because of the blood of Jesus washed my sins. My spirit man was dead in sin. Now it must be dead in Christ.
03:52 That means it must be alive in Christ, but dead. It must be dead to sin. Now that I am in Christ, my spirit man must be dead to sin.
04:02 It was dead by sin earlier. Sin caused it to die. My spirit man was dead because of sin.
04:08 Now I must be dead towards sin. I should not be able to be affected by sin. That is the thing.
04:16 So now how do we do this? By looking at the word of God and changing. Earlier the sin caused my spirit man to be dead. Now the blood of Jesus given me life.
04:25 Now my spirit man must be ha. I must not be tempted by these things. Won’t be because why? The spirit man is the spirit of God who has given his life.
04:35 But now the heart is not going to let me go. My heart is treacherously wicked. Want to control me.
04:40 Want to control me and follow the ways of the world. So he will talk to me. He will do this.
04:45 And I must recognize it and tell my heart to shut up in the name of Jesus Christ. You will not do this. You will obey the word of God and begin to talk to my heart in the still of the night in the bed.
04:55 That’s what the Command is. Psalm 44. Some translation very clearly will say, in the still of the night, in the bed, be still and begin to meditate.
05:04 That’s how. And talk to your heart. He says, talk to your heart.
05:06 You know the particular scripture, the particular translation. So when you begin to do this, before going to Sleep. Your life will change because the word of God will change you.
05:15 Now today we are talking about enemies of the cross of Christ. Philippians 3:17 Although people are going to church and all that they may be enemies of the now let’s check ourselves whether we ourselves have become enemies of the cross of Christ in some areas or not. Now let’s look at that.
05:30 Philippians 3:17 Brothers and sisters, this is Apostle Paul writing together. Follow my example and observe those who live by the pattern we gave you. Who gave us the apostles gave us.
05:42 Follow my example. Follow the example of the apostle. Now Apostle Paul also writes somewhere else.
05:48 He says, follow me as I follow Christ. Follow me as I follow Christ. That means don’t you say, don’t follow me if I’m not following Christ.
05:52 Follow me as I follow Christ. Follow his example as he follows Christ and the example that they set for us to observe, but the pattern they gave us, the apostles gave us. For there are many of whom I’ve often told you and now tell you, even with tears, now he’s crying who live as enemies of the cross of Christ, rejecting and opposing his way of salvation his way of salvation rejecting and opposing his way of salvation.
06:24 19 whose faith is destruction, whose God is their belly, their worldly appetite, their sensuality, their vanity sensuality, vanity, worldly appetite things of the world they are craving for that whose glory is in their shame. They do all kinds of things and they think that it’s glory. They’re feeling fantastic, they’re doing fantastic.
06:44 They’re making people, impressing upon people and all, but to their shame, he says, who focus their mind on earthly and temporal things. So but 20 but we are different because we means apostles are different because our citizenship is in heaven. Now that applies to us.
07:02 Our citizenship is in heaven. And from there we eagerly await the coming of the Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ, who by exerting that power which enables him even to subject everything to Himself, will not only transform but completely refashion our earthly bodies so that they will be like a glorious resurrected body. Now this is a great answer here.
07:27 Our bodies will not become like angels, but our bodies will become like Jesus Christ. Glorious resurrected body Glorious resurrected body like Christ. Now how does he do that? By the power which enabled him even to subject everything to Himself, he brought everything under his control, right? Will not only transform, but completely refashion our earthly bodies so that they will be like his glorious resurrected body.
07:54 Brothers and sisters, brothers and sisters, listen again. He is going to change each of our bodies to his glorious body Like Christ. That is, if you are willing to follow him.
08:05 Willing, no, because we can’t do ourselves. When you are willing means, you take the Word of God, meditate on the Word of God, and then the Word of God will change us, will change us from glory to glory. But we must be only willing.
08:18 Willing means. Then we say, lord Jesus, I’m willing. Make me change, Lord.
08:22 Make me obey your commandments. Make me obey. Because we love him, we keep his commandments.
08:26 He says, if you love me, keep my commandments. Make me, Lord Jesus. Make me, Lord Jesus.
08:31 In the name of Jesus Christ, I ask the Holy Spirit to make me obey the commandments of Jesus Christ. Because I want to love him. I want to love him as he wants me to love him.
08:37 I want to love Jesus Christ as the way he once has commanded me to love him by keeping his commandments. Make me do that. In Jesus Christ’s name, I ask your Holy Spirit.
08:49 I. I beg you, Holy Spirit, what will happen when you keep doing this? You will end up going and doing the right thing. Remove that so now. Because the word of God will change you.
08:58 But these enemies of the cross. Look at this. Ridiculous.
09:03 You know, because they say they’re Christians. What is Apostle Paul saying? Enemies of the cross. They say they are Christians, but actually they are enemies of the cross.
09:10 Now. Enemies of the cross. What did the cross resemble? There is crucifixion.
09:16 Everything was crucified there. Sin was crucified there. Curses were crucified there.
09:22 Our useless thing, everything that we do, all crucified there. And that’s why Jesus said, if you follow me, pick up your cross and follow me. Crucify your flesh.
09:37 Our flesh was supposed to have crucified there on the cross. Now we are supposed to crucify here. But here he is not expecting us to crucify our flesh by ourselves.
09:45 He is not expecting that. He knows we can’t do this. But Jesus said, now listen to my word.
09:52 And then the apostles said, follow the example now. When to follow? The body will reject, the heart will reject. But then we have power.
10:00 In the name of Jesus Christ, you command all temptation to get out. You command every spirit, every spirit of lust of the world. Lust of the eyes to things of the spirit of the world.
10:09 Anger, allies, deceit, adultery, fornication, sexual immortality. All the spirits you cast out first in the name of Jesus Christ. Anything your heart is being tempted means you better understand your enemy.
10:20 Jesus Christ says, your enemy, the devil, walks about as a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour, whom he may Swallow. So he is my enemy and your enemy. So that’s why I am tempting my heart.
10:32 So I must first command every wicked, unknown speed to get out in the name of Jesus Christ. Every unclean spirit. Then if I know the temptation, I bind and break the hold of the spirit in the name of Jesus Christ.
10:40 I bind and break the hold of sexual immorality in my heart. Get out in the name of Jesus Christ. Every wicked, unclean spirit of sexual immorality.
10:48 Get out in the name of Jesus Christ. And not to return. I burn you by the blood of Jesus Christ.
10:58 You focus on that particular thing, on that particular sin. If it is anger, if it is now we come to that soon the list, the fruit of the spirit. Because we want the fruit of the spirit.
11:10 Fruit of the Holy Spirit. Now then, what is it you command? Your heart. Heart.
11:15 You love Jesus Christ in the name of Jesus Christ. I command my heart to love Jesus Christ. And when you begin to talk this and then you begin to talk on certain scriptures where you want yourself to be changed like that.
11:26 You want to be changed from glory to glory. There is some particular work to do. Work out your own salvation means believe in Jesus Christ and he will do for you.
11:36 By believing in Jesus Christ means Jesus says you adhere to him. You cling to him, you hold on to him and then hold on to him is how. Hold on to the Scriptures because it’s the word of God.
11:47 You can’t hold on to Jesus Christ in the physical, so you hold on to Jesus Christ of the world, the word of Jesus Christ. You hold on as you keep on thinking and meditating and holding on to the word of Jesus Christ. You’re holding on to Jesus Christ.
12:00 The Holy Spirit will take and put it in our hearts and will come. Now, for instance, next thing you see the practices of sin. Galatians 5, 1924.
12:13 Now the practices of the sinful nature are clearly evident. God is saying. The word of God is saying.
12:13 Now the practices of the sinful nature are clearly evident. I’m reading amplified. They are sexual immorality, impurity, sensuality.
12:29 Sensuality means things you’re craving in the senses, all the bodily senses, not just sexual immorality senses you sense, you sense. You please your tongue, you please your mouth. The taste, the smell, the feeling on the flesh.
12:45 You want the clothes you wear. Maybe silk, only you want to wear. Since all the time you want to wear something to.
12:51 To satisfy the body, the carnal self, to taste of the food. Fantastic. More food, more food.
12:56 Expensive food, fusion food. You’re Craving for these kind of things. Total irresponsibility, lack of self control.
13:03 Now sensual, now idolatry, sorcery, hostility, anger, fight, fright, strife, jealousy, fits of anger, disputes, dissensions, factions, promoting groups, you know, small groups in the church, people begin to. I’m a gang. This is a gang.
13:20 Oh, I’m a gang. So it’s promoting heresies. That means false logic, false doctrine, having small sections in the only two, three people.
13:28 You misfit the others. All you want to misfit all. This is, God says, terrible sin, envy, drunkenness, righteous behavior.
13:37 Oh, revelry, you know, the football game nowadays, all kinds of things. The way it catches you, you go there, it’ll catch you also. Because rioters, behavior and all so, and other things like this.
13:50 I warn you beforehand, just as I did previously, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God. Will not inherit the kingdom of God. Apostle Paul is warning, but the fruit of the Spirit.
14:02 The result of his presence within us is love. Unselfish concern for others. Love is what? Unselfish concern for others.
14:10 Inner peace. Patience. Patience is not the ability to wait.
14:15 But. But how we act while waiting. Patience is not the ability to wait, is defined by the amplified which is taken from the Hebrew and other meanings of Buddha.
14:24 Patience, not the ability to wait, but how we act while waiting. That means I used to be impatient. Cutting the road, you know, cutting this way, cutting that weight.
14:33 Now if I jam now I have to wait. And how I wait calmly, I have to wait. And how God makes me calm.
14:39 I call blood of Jesus. Blood of Jesus. Kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, Self control.
14:46 Now it starts with love, the fruit of the Spirit. One fruit, the various shades of the fruit. One fruit of the Spirit starts with love, ends with self control.
14:55 So when people don’t have self control, they surely don’t have the fruit of the Spirit. Those who belong to Christ Jesus 24 have crucified the sinful nature together with his passions and appetite. Those who who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the sinful nature together with its passions and appetites.
15:15 So those who have not done this are enemies of the cross. Enemies of the cross. Now here, can you go back and see the citizenship of heaven.
15:24 Ours right now, here. We must remember those defined here also those who keep their mind on earthly things. Enemies of the cross, he says in 19 Philippians 3:19, who focus their mind on earthly things.
15:41 Earthly and temporal things. The enemies of the cross. So if you are today going to church, yes, but if you are focusing on earthly things, man.
15:49 All the worldly lust, all the worldly how the world do iPhone 5, iPhone 25, iPhone 35, 55, 100. All that focusing on all this, it will catch you. And you are only focusing this because these are tools.
16:01 If you have the money, buy it and use it. These are tools only. But if you focus, I got a better phone, I got a better phone than them.
16:08 All kinds of things goes on because God calls them enemies of the cross of Christ. Enemies. You’re not an enemy of Christ because you cannot.
16:17 What can anyone do to Christ? But you are enemy of the cross because the cross calls for crucifixion of our sinful nature. The cross demands crucifixion of our sinful nature. But if you don’t crucify sinful nature, you are an enemy of the cross of Christ and you are thinking of only earthly things, worldly things.
16:41 Brothers and sisters, today let’s change. Go to Philippians 3, 17, 21 and meditate. Go to Galatians 5, 19, 24 and meditate in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.

00:01 Praise Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Brothers and sisters, today the power of Christ Daily 7 February 2016, a Sunday, Jesus said, but only one thing is necessary. Part 2. Only one thing is necessary.
00:14 If Jesus Christ said, and yesterday we had the part one. Now brothers and sisters, today let’s recap some of the things. This was a event whereby Martha welcomed Jesus Jesus into her home in Bethany.
00:29 And Mary, the sister was just sitting at Jesus feet and continually listening to his teaching while Martha had to run here and then serving Jesus Christ. And you know, Jesus has come with her 12 disciples, of course. So this is going on and Martha was so busy and distracted by all the servant responsibilities that she approached Jesus and said, lord, is it not of concern to you? Don’t you care, Jesus, that my sister has asked me to do the serving alone? How, Lord? So there are many women now will be going and okay, talking to the Lord.
01:00 They’ll be talking to Jesus, their followers and the Lord, you know, this is like this and this is like that and daily cares and wares and worries, they talk about it. And then when they’re talking about it, Lord, I’m facing this thing, I’ve got to cook so many things. A big function is coming.
01:18 Today happened to be the eve of Chinese New Year. So in Malaysia a lot of families going back and they’re having this annual dinner, reunion dinner with their families. So a lot of cares and Christian Chinese will be going back and they’ll be having a lot of cares and troubles and running around and this is a good time for them to listen to this, whereby the woman will say, I’ve got to prepare so many things.
01:40 My son is coming back, my children are coming back. And men also run around and do things or whatever, of course, if they are good husbands. Otherwise there’s just a lepa there or lazy there and the woman has to do all kinds of things now.
01:54 But when we are talking, and you may be talking to Jesus because it’s Christian women, you know, they told his Lord, I got so many things to do, this and that and all and what and this exactly what Martha was saying. Don’t you care, Lord? You know, I have no concern to you, Father, Lord, that my sister left me to do all these things alone. Now he said, martha, Martha, you are worried and bothered and anxious for so many things, but, but only one thing is necessary.
02:18 And Mary had chosen the good part. That one thing which is to her advantage, which will not be taken away from her. And that one thing is seek the kingdom of God and his Righteousness first.
02:29 And all these things will be added. Now, necessarily, there’s a lot of explanation for that. Now remember this, the kingdom of God.
02:38 Seek the kingdom of God first and his righteousness. All these things together. So if some body, if you’re not renewed in the spirit, you cannot understand these kind of things.
02:47 And people cannot understand Jesus Christ verse until they accept first. That’s why the faith in the spirit world, faith is the currency, they will say. Faith is the item that you exchange for getting things in the spiritual world, in the spirit plane, it is.
03:06 Faith in the worldly way is money. You give, money you get. Buy a thing, you give money, you go and get an etiquette.
03:12 You get, money you give, you have. So you have to work and get some money. And then you take the money and you go and do this or do business, get some money.
03:19 So money is the exchanging instrument. In the spiritual plane, faith is the exchanging instrument. Faith.
03:27 Faith in Christ will never fail. Hope in Christ will never fail. So remember, in the spiritual world, you want to deal.
03:33 In the spiritual world, you want to deal with the spirit. To get whatever Jesus has promised us, you have to use faith. You can’t use physical work.
03:44 I will fast for five days and Jesus, God’s hand will move. Some people are teaching this, they are wrong. And then many people following this, they find that nothing really has helped them.
03:55 Because in Jesus, words itself is faith. The faith, the size of the grain of a mustard seed is enough to move mountains. Brothers and sisters, it is very important for you to understand.
04:06 That is why in the spiritual plane, Jesus has said, you do not understand my words written down Scripture, because you do not accept it. So only when you accept his words, if he says the words, you have to seek the kingdom of God, righteousness first. You accept it first.
04:27 Only then you begin to understand it. If you don’t accept the statement like that, you won’t understand it. For instance, one statement, let the dead bury the dead.
04:36 That is, he is saying, let the spiritually dead bury the dead. If you don’t accept the statement, for anyone, loving father, mother, brother, sister, husband, child, more than me, is not worthy of me, you don’t accept the statement. You will not understand it.
04:50 In fact, you will get angry with it because you don’t understand it. Therefore, the people who do not accept the word of Jesus Christ Jesus said they cannot understand it. And this went further on.
04:59 The apostle John wrote that they left people left, left this congregation, left the church because he said they are not offers in the first place. If they Were offers in the first place, they would not have left. Now next, John went on to say, they did not hear us, they do not hear us, they do not want to hear us.
05:21 So therefore they are not of us. And they’re not of God because they do not want to hear us, they’re not of God. If they of God, they would have heard us.
05:30 They would have listened to the words that we are telling them. And now the apostles are of course telling the words from God because they are moved by the Spirit to write commandments and write in the epistles, letters. You see, the gospels are what about Jesus? The apostles wrote about Jesus.
05:45 And then the epistles are what? The letters are written to the churches. Paul wrote a lot of letters. John, Jude, James and all that, right, Peter.
05:54 Now so they are saying the apostle John, Apostle John saying they do not listen to us because they are not of us. If they are of us, they will listen to us. So therefore what now the same letters are.
06:08 Now we are reading the same letters to the churches that John wrote, Paul wrote, Peter wrote, Jude wrote, James wrote, all these people we are now reading. Now in this reading we will take these words of God and release it to the word of God. Although written by the apostles through the unction of the Holy Spirit.
06:27 And you release it to people and they don’t accept it means then they won’t listen to it and they will leave and nothing anybody can do. We are not jail wardens or dictators or whatever. We will say, no, if you want to follow, you have to follow like this.
06:41 Now you don’t want to follow, then nothing else we can do because we will continue following. And then another thing, they get upset. That really baffles me.
06:49 They get upset. But when they don’t want to follow, I say, look, don’t follow, it’s okay, you don’t have a part of this. But they get upset.
06:57 You know why that mean literally they want me to follow what they are saying. Can you imagine that? They get upset. Why? Why must follow this word like that? Hey, this is how we follow.
07:07 Don’t we have a freedom and a right to follow what we are believing in? What is written in the scripture? If you don’t follow it, it’s okay. But then that is your issue with God. But you do not force us to follow what you believe because that’s what people want.
07:23 When they want to their own way. They will try to condemn what we are believing and I am believing by showing the scriptures repeatedly to people. And they don’t want to believe that, that means they don’t want to believe the apostles.
07:36 When they do not want to hear the apostles, they are not part of the apostles group. This is a group that has come down. The words have come down.
07:44 Brothers and sisters. Today important now. So if you do not, if a person is not renewed in the spirit of the mind, if you say how then just listen to Jesus.
07:53 Because the Bible says continually listening, continually listening to his teaching. See that the feet. Mary sat at the feet of Jesus Christ.
08:01 Continually listening to Jesus. Now what has happened is Jesus has made it simple. Because now the spirit of Jesus now is inside us through the spirit of, through the Holy Spirit.
08:12 And we are inside him through the Holy Spirit also. And he is seated at the right hand side of Father God. And everything is under his feet.
08:19 This is why I’m quoting the scripture. Everything is under his feet. But why Father God put everything under his feet.
08:24 And now when Father God put everything under his feet, everything is also under our spiritual feet. We can take control. We can command.
08:31 In the name of Jesus Christ. In the name of Jesus Christ. That is why there’s one verse he’s saying here.
08:38 Luke 17:21. Sorry, Matthew 12:28. Matthew 12:28.
08:44 But if it is by the spirit of God that I cast out demons, then the kingdom of God has come to you. Now what is the commandment he gave us? Spread the gospel and then good news. And then those who believe these signs will follow.
08:58 They’ll cast out evil spirit in my name. Now anger is the evil spirit. Don’t wait for big time deliverance.
09:04 Somebody is now frothing the mouth or something. Somebody losing the mind or something. Deliverance has a ton on earth because we have all kinds of evil spirits attacking us.
09:15 Some will, many will already be with us. When we came to the Lord Jesus Christ. And then we begin to change and we see one anger.
09:21 Oh, all the time. Every time I’m getting anger, that means I have a spirit of anger. Start casting out in the name of Jesus Christ.
09:28 That is why. And he says what here? Matthew 12:28. The Spirit.
09:32 If I. Jesus said, if it is by the spirit of God that I cast out demons, then the kingdom of God has come to you. So when you go around casting out evil spirits in the name of Jesus Christ, the kingdom of God, you’re bringing the kingdom of God to them. What is the kingdom of God? Yesterday we dealt with that.
09:48 It is the condition of your soul. It’s the condition of your heart. It’s a condition where righteousness, peace and Joy.
09:56 See that one is in Romans 14:17. This is a very important definition Romans. Because for a couple of years I didn’t know he was after coming.
10:04 When I asked people, yes, sister, I want to do the kingdom of God. I want to seek the kingdom of God. First they couldn’t tell me how they giving wishy washy answers.
10:13 Finally, by God, Jesus Christ, mercy. He showed me this through. Somebody was preaching on a.
10:19 I can’t remember who. So suddenly it struck me, hey, this is the kingdom of God. It’s not a place, it’s not a thing.
10:25 It is the condition of your soul. It’s a condition of your soul. So you must be in the kingdom of God.
10:31 Righteousness, peace and joy. That’s the one thing you must seek first to have righteousness, peace and joy. And this can come only from Jesus Christ.
10:39 Why? My righteousness is like filthy rags. Jesus already said in his word, all our righteousness, I mean, whatever we try to do right is filthy rags. He cannot accept it.
10:50 His righteousness comes because of his blood, washes away my sins. And I have righteousness of Christ in me now. And then what happens when I understand that and in faith I believe it, Then peace and joy will come.
11:03 When I begin to worship. Worship, sing songs, talk about him, think about him. Think in the.
11:10 Meditate on the Word of God. Meditate on the things that have gone wrong. Because we are listening to him.
11:15 As Mary was continually listening to teaching. His teaching will also be examined yourselves when you continually listen to his teaching. His teaching will be examine yourself, Examine yourself and see where you are wrong.
11:27 And then ask for forgiveness from people. Ask for forgiveness from Christ and also forgive people. Because unforgiveness will never get righteousness, peace and joy.
11:36 If you have any unforgiveness in you, you will never have righteousness, peace and joy. Now, righteousness, peace and joy is a continual thing. Now Mary had to sit at the feet of Jesus Christ, continually listening to him.
11:48 We are continually conditioned to Jesus Christ because He is in us through the Holy Spirit. And so whenever you are doing anything, you can still talk to him. And he will prompt you.
11:58 The Holy Spirit will convict you when you are going towards sin. He will talk to you. The Holy Spirit will talk to you.
12:04 It is a wonderful thing. But to do that, what we need to do, we need to spend time listening to the Word of God, meditating on the Word of God, checking against our conduct, the Word of God, whether we are completed. And then be a doer of the Word.
12:21 If you don’t be A doer of the Word. The book of James says, you are like a man or a woman who looks in the mirror. And then when you turn away, you forgot what you look like.
12:33 Hopeless. So praise Jesus Christ, brothers and sisters, today become a doer of the Word. Now seek the kingdom of God, righteousness first.
12:41 So an unconverted mind will say, then what? Just go, listen to God, Listen to God. I got problem. I just stand there and listen to God, listen to God, listen to God.
12:49 That is why they do not know he will do something for you. Because when you keep listening to God, listen to the word of God, listen to Jesus Christ, on and on inside. Suddenly the Holy Spirit will tell you a direction to do.
13:01 When he gives you a direction to do, that’s the right direction to go. And you go and there will be peace when you are going for it. There will be righteousness, peace and joy in you.
13:09 When you’re going for the decision, however difficult the issue, there’ll be righteousness, peace and joy. Because you waited on the Lord, you talk to him, talk to him. Finally, there’s a settlement.
13:18 Even sometimes in very difficult cases, where somebody is loved, one is seriously in hospital, joy may not come, but there will be peace. The peace of Christ, which surpasses all understanding, will be with you and in you. So the kingdom of God is a condition of your soul in the spiritual world.
13:37 That condition of your soul is the governance, the governing body of your governing authority of you. Righteousness, peace and joy must rule over you. The peace of God must rule over you.
13:50 Now that’s why he says, and some of you do what? You start casting out evil spirits. Because then the kingdom of God has come upon you and come upon others when you begin to do it for others. Now that’s why in Luke 17:21, Jesus says, Nor will they say, see here, see there.
14:06 For indeed, the kingdom of God is within you. The kingdom of God is where? Within you. This you can understand.
14:09 The kingdom of God is within you. As the kingdom of God within you means righteousness, peace and joy is within you. That is how you know the kingdom of God is within you now.
14:21 So I do nothing. No, you have to do. But you have to wait on the Lord Jesus Christ for pray.
14:27 Pray for our own sake. It’s not praying to move God. You’re praying.
14:31 So when you’re praying the promises of God into you or yourself, the spirit man will get faith on the promise, your faith will rise on the promise, and that faith will then take you through. Because first of all, the Righteousness of peace and joy will come because the kingdom of God within you is being risen. And then the spirit of God will begin to move your steps.
14:53 If you allow him. If you still want your own will, then nothing anybody can do. Because even when you want your own way, your own will, Jesus Christ will not intervene.
15:01 Jesus Christ will not intervene. Why? Because he has given you a will. Even after you have said Jesus Christ is my lord and master and you still want to do your own way.
15:12 And you will. He will allow you because he is a good God. He is a just God.
15:16 He will not force us. But what will happen? Trouble will come. What I used to say dungeons will come, the demons will come.
15:25 Because why? They know you are doing your own will and you have no power over demons. You are doing the word of God’s will, Jesus Christ’s will. You have power over demons because you’ll be casting them out.
15:36 They are afraid of you. But if you don’t do that, you want your own will, then the demons will come. I call them unhings will come and they will begin to bite you because the devil came to steal, kill and destroy.
15:46 And then you begin to have little problems, starting with little problem here and little problem there. And you will begin to brush off. Many people brush off small problems and take it.
15:54 Then there is enough. And there is an analogy. Analogy is an example to make things clearer.
16:00 Like a frog was caught in a pond by a boy and put in a pot. Very unsettling. Suddenly I’m in a pot and finally you carry the thing is shaking, shaking, quite comfortable.
16:10 Falls asleep, goes there and puts on a stove. The frog doesn’t know and he lights the fire. And the fire begins to.
16:16 Slowly water begins to heat up. Oh, very nice. Comfortable.
16:20 The frog finally wakes up dead because boiling water. That’s why when small trouble, small trouble you begin to ignore. You begin to check, am I going away from Christ? If the undeniability come.
16:32 Has Satan come to steal and destroy? There’s an examining to do not ever. Stop blaming people. There are people.
16:38 Whenever trouble come, blame everybody else, but never themselves. So brothers and sisters, today you know the kingdom of God is within you. Now exercise.
16:47 Do the right thing. In Jesus Christ’s name I pray. Amen.

00:00 Praise Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Brothers and sisters, today the power of Christ Daily 6 February 2016 Saturday titled Jesus said but only one thing is necessary. These are taken from this verse in the Bible. A phrase from a verse in the Bible where Jesus says Jesus said, but only one thing is necessary.
00:24 Now brothers and sisters, this is a very key statement Jesus has made. But only one thing is necessary. So what is the thing and how do we do? What do we do to get it? Brothers and sisters, go to Luke 10:38,42 this is an event where Jesus has come to Bethany.
00:42 Bethany is a small village, a town. Not a small village, small town, a village. And Luke 10:38, 42 this history of whereby the story of Martha and Mary, then many of you will know the story.
00:55 But let’s look at some of these issues there that Jesus is highlighting to us the spirit of God. Highlighting to me and now I’m highlighting to you. That is extremely important.
01:04 Now while they were on their way. This is 38 First Luke 10:38. I’m reading from amplified now.
01:11 While they were on their way, Jesus entered a village called Bethany and a woman named Martha welcomed him into a home. 39 he had a sister named Mary who seated herself at the Lord’s feet and was continually listening to his teaching. But Martha was very busy and distracted with all of her servant responsibilities and she approached him and said, lord, is it of no concern to you that my sister has left me to do the serving alone? Tell her to help me and do her part.
01:44 But the Lord replied to her, martha, Martha, you are worried and bothered and anxious about so many things, but only one thing is necessary. Only one thing is necessary. This is in Luke 10:42, Jesus saying, But only one thing is necessary.
02:01 For Mary has chosen the good part, that which is to her advantage, which will not be taken away from her. Oh, thank Jesus. Which will not be taken away from her.
02:11 Now let’s look at this again, verse by verse and see where each of us can learn and and we can change today if we can. Remember, if Jesus says, it’s only one thing that is necessary. Only one thing is necessary.
02:23 What is this thing? If only one thing is necessary and that she has chosen that good path. If only one thing is necessary. Fantastic.
02:32 If they can find out the one thing that’s necessary and then we choose that part and hang on to that and continue in that, then obviously our line will be fantastic, isn’t it? Now only one thing is necessary. Now again we’ll go back. Remember in 38 Luke 10:38 it was Martha welcomed him, not Mary.
02:54 Yet it was Martha. When Jesus went into the village called Bethany, a woman named Martha came and welcomed him into her own home. Into her home.
03:03 39 her sister named Mary, who seated. Now there’s a confusion here. There’s a discussion between theologians whether this is the same Mary Magdalene or St. Mary who poured the alabaster water and all this.
03:16 So we are not here to discuss that thing today. There’s a sister named Mary who seated. I believe it is the same Mary that is Mary Magdalene.
03:25 But let’s see some astrologers and some of the understanding. But now mine, who seated herself at the Lord’s feet, was continually listening to his teaching. Not just listen and drop listen and go do something else listen and went off listen and mind went off somewhere continually listening to his teaching.
03:43 Continually listening to his teaching. But Martha was very busy and distracted with all her responsibilities. And she approached him and said, lord, is it not no concern to you that my sister had left me to do that serving alone? Can you imagine how much work you’ll have? The Lord Jesus Christ has come and now he comes.
04:01 He comes with 12 disciples. So remember this, you’re not alone there. And when you invite the Lord Jesus Christ, of course the disciples are followed.
04:10 Now if not Jesus, Jesus only simple thing, very quickly he can do one person and he doesn’t care about food and all some more so just Jesus, these disciples, all we have to serve now. He’s serving, he’s preparing, serving and all that. Isn’t it a necessary thing to do? Yes, but Jesus Christ saying, but only one thing is necessary.
04:28 But we will think this is a necessary thing. Let’s feed the Lord, let’s feed his troops, let’s feed his entourage and all that. Then tell her to help me and do her part.
04:39 The Lord says, no. You are worried, bothered and anxious of so many things. How many Marthas are today listening to me? How many Martha men Marthas are listening to me? Are you worried, bothered and anxious about so many things today? There’s a segment that Jesus made me do.
04:58 It’s called kill anxiety before anxiety kills you. Kill anxiety before anxiety kills you. Here Jesus is saying, worried, bothered and anxious about so many things.
05:09 Now how many Martha sisters and brothers here today listening or anytime listening later in years? I don’t know when they will be listening. This I might be by Jesus mercy gone home to the Lord. Others may be still listening to this.
05:22 Who knows how the whole thing goes. Only Jesus knows how many. Martha, if you are A martyr.
05:27 If you are a Martha man or a master, sister or master brother here you might be a brother in Christ, but you might be doing a Mar today. You’re worried, bothered and anxious. Are you worried, bothered and anxious? Then you are doing a Martha today.
05:42 So I think I’m now telling my instruction to the congregation high minister, anytime before a word Martha bothered, anxious, just tell the sister or church, tell the brother you are doing a Martha, you’re doing a Martha. So why Martha? The spirit that Martha has allowed to capture her will destroy her. We cannot Worried, bothered, anxious.
06:04 Cast all your cares and worries upon the Lord Jesus Christ, for he cares for you. There’s a commander cast all your cares. And how do we cast all our cares? By worshipping him and all that and then praying, talking to him.
06:22 Praying is what? Talking to Jesus Christ, the husband of your soul and telling him this issue is going on and saying, Lord Jesus, I do not want to be bothered and anxious and worried like Martha did. But I am now. I am doing a Martha.
06:35 Lord, I do not want to do this. Take it away from me. Lord Jesus, start casting out.
06:39 Now we have power. Jesus died and rose again and he gave us power. And he said the last thing he said before he left earth is those who share the gospel and those who believe they will have this signs following them.
06:50 They will cast out evil spirits in my name. You cast out the spirit of anxiousness. You cast out the spirit of bothered, being bothered.
06:56 Cast out the spirit of being worried and receive the spirit of being calm and trust in the Lord. You receive so many. That’s why there’s an I will prayer in the I think finally I’ve changed it to I am because some of it I will is a future thing.
07:09 So I decided to change into I am. And some the sisters in Christ typed it out and all that story. Now you go to the graceoflife.com and get these prayers and you begin to pray.
07:20 This casting out, all this nonsense cast out brothers and sisters, you cast out from ourselves first. This is a big mistaken thing. You know, when casting out people think there must be a huge demonized person.
07:33 And you know with all this matters hair black with earth and mud and all that under humans and deliverance. No, you must say deliverance. Being you are captive.
07:46 If you’re worried, bothered and anxious, you already captive. If you’re worried, bothered and anxious, you’re captive. You better cast it out.
07:52 You have to cast it out. You have to cast it out because the order from Jesus Christ, otherwise you’re a Captive. He came to set the captive free.
08:00 So why am I allowing myself to be captive again with some of these ridiculous spirits which are going to destroy me? Jesus Christ also said, you allow one demon to come back, then it will go bring seven more. So these worried, positive, anxious, will only get worse and worse and worse, worse and worse, and then will destroy our life. And once you are in this condition, in the worried, bothered and anxious business, seven more demons will begin to enter you.
08:24 Seven more you may be, you will begin to lie and other lying spirit may come. Because now your boss is anxious and you tell your boss something. You’re bothered, anxious about what the boss is saying.
08:34 And then you now may end up lying to him. You end up maybe stealing or maybe cheating or something. The other spirit will come.
08:41 And then you, my brother, who is a spirit being, has become a captive. And these demons are watching you. And when you have the power Jesus Christ has given you with this, so much of sacrifice, so much of pain and torture and hanging there with the flesh like ribbons.
09:00 Because they whipped and whipped. I became like ripple, the skin was become like ribbons. The Bible says he had no more form.
09:05 This was predicted or prophesied thousands of years before in the psalms. He was hanging there with no form. They torn his face and that’s because they tore his ears.
09:15 The face was torn and he had to go through this to give you the power to cast out every evil spirit and not be a captive again. And if you do not use this, you are just wasting it. Brothers, sisters, you’re wasting it.
09:32 Do this. Give the prayer. Start casting out in the name of Jesus Christ and receive the spirit of calmness.
09:40 Receive the spirit of boldness. Receive the spirit of sound mind. Receive the spirit of overcoming in Jesus Christ’s name.
09:49 In the name of Jesus Christ. I receive the spirit of overcoming in the name of Jesus Christ. I, risen spirit of boldness and sound mind, kindness and compassion.
09:51 I receive the spirit of love. For even the person who is bullying me, maybe my boss, I receive a spirit of love and I will love him. I will love this man in Jesus name and I will do the best.
10:11 Whether he recognizes I am doing the best or not, not important here. I want to do it unto the Lord Jesus Christ. And he, my Jesus Christ, the husband of my soul, will do something now starting it.
10:23 When you are in this condition, sometimes you may not be able to pray. So you start it by saying, blood of Jesus, Blood of Jesus, Blood of Jesus. Now where do you do faith? Under your breath.
10:33 Softly, but must be audible. The Demon has to hear this. Now in addition to it, I’ve told the congregation before, I’ve been doing this for 15 years.
10:43 I have discarded 18 years. And this kind of blood of Jesus, I tell everybody, do blood of Jesus, say blood of Jesus, blood of Jesus. Now what you do is the blood of Jesus is so powerful, it’s complete power.
10:54 What we do now, I call this the toilet break. If any meeting going on and you got distressed and all this worried and bothered, anxious, they’re trying to do something to you, you immediately what you do, you excuse yourself. I need to go to the gems, I need to go to the ladies.
11:10 Excuse yourself straight away before the demonic forces move and and self only demons begin to catch you. You better straight away excuse yourself out of the meeting, out of the group, out of the group of so called friends, out of the group of so called worldly friends. Out of the group of people who are doing this thing and causing all this anxiousness, worries and arguments and gossiping and murmuring and grumbling.
11:32 Anything that they are doing that’s not of Christ, ask yourself to be excused. And I call that solar break. So congregation will know.
11:40 Why didn’t you take a toilet break, sister? Why did you take a toilet break, brother? They’ll know what I’m talking about. Take a toilet break. Go there in the toilet.
11:50 Audibly task first. Blood of Jesus. Blood of Jesus.
11:54 Blood of Jesus, Blood of Jesus, blood of Jesus, blood of Jesus. Blood of Jesus. Blood of Jesus Christ of Nazareth.
11:57 Blood of Jesus Christ. Mercy on me, Lord. Mercy, Lord.
12:03 And then quickly examine yourself. Did you cause any of these things now? Sorry Lord, you cannot know. Also sorry Jesus.
12:08 Forgive me Lord, if I do things unknowingly. Forgive me Lord, if I do things stupidly. Forgive me Lord.
12:13 My mercy on me, Lord. Lift me apart against Jesus and I tell Satan, Satan. Every wicked, unfilling spirit of worry and bother and anxious and lies and deceit and gossip and whatever is going on there.
12:24 Name the fools. Name the things that are going on there. Because those things are the names of the spirits that are attacking.
12:31 Anxiety. Spirit of anxiousness. Worry.
12:35 Spirit of worry. And you begin to cast out in Jesus Christ name. And you begin to do the breath of God.
12:41 You begin to breathe the breath. Because Lord Jesus, I’m going to breathe not air. Now in faith, I’m receiving your breath.
12:48 The breath you gave Adam and Eve. Life. Give me new life, new life.
12:51 And you begin to breathe in the name of Jesus Christ. Hey brother and sister, look, this a wonderful thing I’m telling you. Go and do it.
13:00 You may be in a hospital and somebody may be inside the hospital. And anxiety and worry has come because can you imagine hospitals, a lot of spirits will be moving around. Spirit of suicides will be moving around.
13:10 Spirit of worry, bother, anxious life, deceit, money. Some of these, can you imagine oncologists and all. Many times they have been given permissions to do this chemical therapy so that without conscience they will begin to push the chemotherapy on people because they are allowed to get commissions in many places.
13:28 So that, that’s called. It’s a conflict, but they don’t care. The world order, the world pharmacy order, pharmacy wants to do this.
13:37 So you must understand when they’re recommending something, it may be recommending for their own sake. Nothing to do with how you so all these worries, all the greed, all cast out. Cast out.
13:47 You got power today. You got power now we continue. There’s only one thing for but only one thing necessary.
13:54 Mary has chosen. So why are we doing all this tossing out and all to get to the one thing? Because you don’t have all things. You won’t have the one thing.
14:02 You have worry, bother and anxious. Now many people tell you I forget about worry. Many churches will tell you, oh, overcome your worry.
14:09 But how you cannot. Many times they begin to say worship and all that. Worship and all that.
14:15 Yes, you have to worship. Might take a long time before you settle down because there’s a spirit hanging around you. They do not.
14:22 Many 99% do not know you can cast out in the name of Jesus Christ these things. Brothers and sisters, I’m begging you, please try, use it. Because many times people are using theological statements say, okay, you cannot be bothered.
14:35 You don’t be bothered about bothered and worried. Like Mary, Martha, don’t be bothered, Martha, you can now, but you cannot. You try, but you cast out and take the breath of God and you see how it works.
14:49 Miracle will happen in your life. Now what is this one thing? Many scholars of Bible have agreed that one thing is this, seek first the kingdom of God. And I also believe that.
15:00 Now why seek ye first the kingdom of God? Isn’t it so now Matthew 6:33. But the first and most importantly, seek his kingdom and his righteousness amplified. So seek ye the kingdom of God first and his righteousness, right? So I’m reading amplified the explanation there.
15:17 But first and foremost seek the aim at strife after his kingdom and his righteousness, his way of doing and being right, the attitude and character of God. All these things will be given to you also. Now when you seek the kingdom of God.
15:31 He was talking earlier. This one I have to deal in. I’ve dealt in extent before.
15:36 But I’ll deal with another day when Lord leaves. When you seek the kingdom of God, righteousness, peace and joy. What is the kingdom of God? Okay, they told me Jesus is the kingdom of God.
15:45 And I said I want, I want. But they couldn’t tell me what is it. And now the seed.
15:48 Romans 14:17 says, for the kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking what one writes, but of righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit. The kingdom of God is actually a spiritual condition of your soul. Righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.
16:05 How do you first cast out all the evil spirits and begin to now pray and worship? Pray in tongues or even to pray and worship and you have the righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit. When you have righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit, in your soul, in your being, you are in the kingdom of God. It’s a spiritual condition of your soul.
16:25 So seek ye first the kingdom of God. Jesus Christ says, there’s only one thing that you need. This is it.
16:32 Righteousness, peace and joy. How do you get it there? Jesus said continually listening to his teaching earlier. Continually listen, listening to his teaching.
16:40 So righteousness and then you begin to put the doer of the Word isn’t his teaching. You become a doer of the Word. You cast out, you do the breath of God and you begin to worship him and begin to look for his word.
16:50 And Jesus will settle you. Brothers and sisters, the one thing is seek the kingdom of God. In Jesus name I pray.

00:00 Praise Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Brothers and sisters, today the power of Christ Daily 5 February 2016. Be devoted to one another. Be devoted to one another, brothers and sisters.
00:13 These are scriptures that many don’t understand or don’t even know. And this causes a lot of trouble for themselves because then the devil came to steal, kill and destroy. And he is also walking about as a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour.
00:30 Will then be given a foothold, a big foothold. And it begins to destroy lives, destroy careers, destroy the life wonders. No peace, no joy, no righteousness.
00:42 The quarrels in the churches, all this. So this has to be understood clearly. And this can only be done for those who want to obey Jesus Christ, those who don’t want to obey Jesus Christ, there’s nothing you can do then.
00:56 But they don’t obey Jesus Christ. They are not even disciples, they are not even Christians. They just want to do their own thing.
01:03 Then they should not be in that congregation. Because if they came wanting to follow Jesus Christ, yes, then they are struggling. Yes, we guide them, they help them and all.
01:13 But they clearly do not want to follow Jesus Christ means wrong place. That is why I used to have a statement from beginning after observing this one, two years after I came to the Lord. Then I realized this is the problem.
01:25 Everyone calls themselves Christian when actually the church is full of non Christians. Unbelievers were actually coming there because somebody told them that Jesus Christ will settle your money matters or whatever. They came for that purpose.
01:38 And then they’re not willing to follow the other concepts and precepts of Christ. That is why the disciples made it clear. Remember the scriptures, they said they do not listen because they’re not one of them.
01:53 They’re not one of them. So brothers and sisters, today the Scriptures are very clear. You have to understand this.
01:59 Yesterday we dealt with this. We dealt with this whereby the apostles are saying they will not listen to us. Apostles are saying they will not listen to us, that is not listen to the apostles.
02:11 Now in the apostles, of course, 2,000 years ago they have passed away. Now how are they now new persons, new so called Christians? If they’re not listening to the word of God written by the apostles, then they’re not one of the one of us. He’s not one of us.
02:30 Because they’re not wanting to listen to what the apostles have written in the scriptures, in the epistles, in the letters. And so they’re not one of us. So then you must understand if they’re not one of us, nothing you can do.
02:43 Then I used to say, you cannot play football in a golf club. You cannot play football golf club, the golf club won’t allow you because the golf club lawn is so expensive. Or even you cannot play football in a tennis lawn club.
02:59 The lawns are so expensive to maintain. The golf clubs are millions of dollars. And people come and kick the football and their football boots will tear off the skin of the grass there.
03:10 How to play golf after that, that is the same thing. When people come wanting to change, wanting to obey, wanting one thing, you know, they’re not changed yet. Yes, we accept them, we teach them, we guide them, we put people together, put counselors together, we watch one another, we care for them.
03:26 With enough money, we have to provide for them, we know food, we have to provide for them. All that. Yes, but if you see clearly they don’t want to even accept the written word of God, then over then you know they are not Christians.
03:38 Because only disciples were first called Christians in the city of Antioch. Brother sister, this looks very hard. No, this is what the word of God is.
03:48 So if we don’t want to listen to the word of God, if I don’t want to follow that word of God, then I myself in doubt question, isn’t it whether I am actually a disciple or not. When Jesus clearly said in 1 John 4, I am quoting 6, 7, 8, 11, 12, 6, we are of God. He who knows God hears us.
04:06 He who is not of God does not hear us. This is John saying, he who is of God hears us. He who is not of God does not hear us.
04:18 Beloved, let us love one another. For love is of God. And everyone who loves is born of God and knows God.
04:26 Everyone who loves is born of God and knows God. He who does not love does not know God. For God is love.
04:28 He who does not love does not know God. For God is love. Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another.
04:42 We also ought to love one another. We have to, we must. Ought means we must.
04:47 We have to. If God so loved us, we also ought to love one another. How? How we loved us.
04:54 We’ll come to the scripture. You know this new commandment I give you. Jesus said before he left, he told the disciples now, 121 John 12, 4, 12.
05:03 No one has seen God anytime. If we love one another, God abides in us. And his love has been perfected in us.
05:11 His love has been perfected in us. So how do you know his love? God’s love is perfected in me. Is when I love one another that the Disciples.
05:19 I’m going to love the disciples as he has loved me, so as he has loved me. Now, if the disciples under my care in the congregation, they do not love one or two don’t love each other as Jesus has loved them. They then I have to sit and deal with this.
05:35 You have to call them and then they may get upset with you. But that is the job of a pastor, of an elder, of a disciple who’s caring for others. That’s your job.
05:45 Watchmen. Old Testament, they had watchmen. These are disciples who watch each other.
05:50 The New Testament disciples watch each other. Now, when we go to the first John 13:34,35, John 13:34,35, Apostle John saying, written through Apostle John, I am giving you a new commandment. Jesus saying, you know and you love one another, that you love one another.
06:09 A new commandment I giving you. Just as I have loved you, so you too are to love one another. You two are to love one another.
06:18 I am reading from amplified. This is Jesus Christ himself said, telling me, telling you just as I have loved you, so you too are to love one another. 35 by this everyone will know that you are my disciples, that you are my disciples.
06:37 Now, if you have love and unselfish concern for one another, that is, everyone will know that you are my disciples if you have love and unselfish concern for one another. Now, this love, Jesus Christ telling is selfless love, completely love one another, selfless. And then Romans 12:10, Apostle Paul saying, be devoted to one another with authentic brotherly affection or sisterly affection in this case, if you are sister, as many as members of one family give preference to one another in honour.
07:12 In honour. Now be devoted to one another. This is a commander.
07:16 This is not a please. Maybe you can be devoted. No, no, devoted.
07:19 Now, what is devoted? Devoted in the dictionary will be like loyal, faithful, true, staunch, steadfast, constant. Steadfast, constant, committed, dedicated, dedicated, affectionate, caring, attentive. In fact, they also say admiring.
07:40 Oh, this is my sister. This is my brother. I thank Jesus.
07:43 They are following. They are following Jesus. I thank Jesus.
07:45 You are admiring them for the following of Jesus Christ. But you know what happens? In reality this happens because people don’t know the scriptures. In reality this happens.
07:53 Oh, why did they say that about me? Oh, what is the sister? Let’s say devil. Anywhere the devil can come bring along and our wicked heart. You are also wicked heart.
08:02 Our wicked heart. Not you. Your spirit man is you.
08:05 You are a spirit being. Your wicked heart. My wicked heart will come.
08:09 Oh, why did they say like that. And then supposing somebody is not serving properly, let’s say they are supposed to bring certain kind of food and didn’t bring enough. Because the fellowship enough people, each of them bring their home cooked food and we share.
08:22 So oh, they didn’t bring enough. Why these women don’t bring enough? Now then you got a problem with Jesus Christ himself. Why? Because you are not loving one another, you are not devoted to one another, you are not putting them above you.
08:40 Think more highly of them. Another scripture says, but pastor, what happens if it is true? If it is true, then you first of all have to think like this. First of all start thinking, maybe you don’t have money, maybe something went wrong today.
08:54 Maybe now the repeating itself means then you have to go by what Jesus says, what is God’s word When this kind of happens, you go and speak to them. And normally this kind of congregation, they’ll have a few people in charge of committee like thing to do the food, isn’t it? Who the cooks, what and all that group of people, two or three sisters must sit to this extent first not start by saying, hey, you didn’t bring any food, you know, you didn’t bring enough food, you know. Start by giving thinking more highly of her.
09:26 Start by thinking, sister, is something problem in the house or is there enough funds with you? Is there some problems, some difficulty? Start thinking whether they got some problems. Start asking whether they got an issue. Then if they don’t open up or they say no, no, no, then you have to tell them, sister, this is not enough, you have to bring more.
09:45 Are you able to bring more? If you’re not able to bring more, say so. Then we will adjust among ourselves. That is being devoted to one another.
09:53 Not straight away, why these women don’t bring enough? Why this? And then he sits with that, Sister, you’re not bringing enough food. That is a stupid disciple to say like this. First of all the command is if you do not love one another as I have loved you, then God is not in you.
10:10 Now you see the problem here. Can you imagine the problem? God is saying, how do you know God abides in you? God abides in you. If you love one another as he has loved us.
10:23 No one has seen God at any time. If we love one another, God abides in us and love is perfected in us. If you do not love one another as Jesus Christ commanded the disciples, then Jesus is not inside us.
10:37 Now the devil now knows, hey, I take advantage of you. Now I take advantage of you. Now he’s going to whack you.
10:44 And then when he whacks you, you cannot. Your mind becomes so clouded, you cannot connect the problem. You cannot connect the dot.
10:50 You cannot connect and say, I think, why is it happening to me? Because you’re already not loving one another as he has loved us. You are looking at him. Why? Why? You won’t realize this is the cause.
11:04 This is the cause because you’re not devoted to one another. You’re not loving one another as Jesus Christ has commanded. Now the devil taking advantage and stealing something else.
11:13 Maybe he gives you financial problem, maybe he gives you health problem. Maybe he gives you children problem. Maybe he give your neighbor’s problem a number of ways.
11:21 He can give the problem, maybe no peace. Maybe some rashes are coming, we don’t know. Because he got many ways to attack you and me.
11:29 That is why now you love one another as he has loved it. This is the second highest commandment. The, the third highest commandment is loving your neighbor as yourself.
11:38 And of course even the fourth one is love even your enemies if you want to be sons of the most High God. So when you’re on difficulties, when you examine yourself from difficulties, start checking step by step. First, did you love God with all your heart, mind, soul and strength? They will always say yes, that is already you are not loving God.
11:56 Why? How do you know whether you are loving God with all your strength and all your heart, mind, soul and strength? You examining yourself. Get somebody else to examine. Is there anything I’m doing wrong? Two, love one another as I loved you.
12:12 Second examination, Third examination. Love your neighbor as yourself. Fourth examination.
12:16 Love your enemies. Now the second commandment, the I guess highest commandment is loving them as Jesus love you by willing to give. You know, give.
12:25 Think highly of them, think more highly of them. But the third commandment, loving your neighbor self means now don’t always care for them. But if the neighbor can be a nuisance also, then you start praying or whatever.
12:37 If you can’t move out of the place because you want to, don’t want to get in trouble, don’t trouble everybody. You want to move out, cannot move out, Then you start praying, commanding all the wicked unclean priests. Because the neighbor is not a problem.
12:49 The battle is not between human beings, not between flesh and blood. The battle is against the spiritual forces, host of wickedness in high places, in heavenly places. It’s a demonic thing.
13:01 So you start binding all the wicked unclean spirits in the neighborhood in your neighbor and then asking mercy for them, thinking loving Them then you pray. You start praying with anger. Then the prayer is not going to work.
13:13 It’s only a prayer with love, heartfelt love will go through. And then you begin to care for them. You understand? We were all also like that.
13:23 Just because you are changed now the other thing you know, when people come to new souls come, then somebody may say, sister, brother, you got to. You know, you can overcome this way, that way. Right now God already take each to his level of faith.
13:38 Now that faith, the new person has come. The faith is small. They’re not exercising yet.
13:42 They don’t even know many words of God. But then you would have taken some time to come there. But you still have overcome.
13:49 Now you overcome, sister. You all come, brother, not taking for a moment to think how long you took to overcome. You better when they came.
13:56 They want to be disciples. Stand up. Look, you want to be Christian.
13:59 Must be wanting to be a disciple, not just believer. This is another story I have addressed this other time. It’s not just I want to be a believer.
14:07 Only disciples were first called Christians. If you just want to be a believer, not a disciple, which is also a falsehood, then you’re not a Christian. According to Bible definition, in the city of Antioch, disciples were first called Christians.
14:23 Now you better understand. You better start by ministering, by saying, sister, I also suffered like this. I also struggled, you know.
14:29 But now you listen to my experience. Then how God settled me. So I did this.
14:35 When maybe we can try doing this, Start doing this now. That’s another matter. Because you already Saint Joseph struggled.
14:40 So they understand, they took a home. But you say, I’ve overcome already. Now this is.
14:44 You go and do what will happen to the other person, new soul. Oh, they all overcomery. They are special.
14:49 They are special people. And then you go out and then you finish. God will hold the soul on your hands and the blood of the soul on your hands.
14:57 Now this is a serious God. It’s a loving God, but it’s a just God. He’s a faithful God.
15:03 He’s just for everybody. He is also just to make sure that when you are wrong, you are dealt with. That’s what justice is.
15:10 Justice is not just. I overlook. They sin and sin and sin and sin and sin and sin.
15:16 The one God said, those who continue to sin, practicing sins, they are born of the devil. Why? Because they do not know Christ. If they know Christ from inside will be changing.
15:25 You want to please him. You want to please him. You want to be a chaste virgin unto Christ.
15:31 So even when you Are not thinking more highly, not devoted to one another. Your temple of God has already got a blemish. Your chaste virgin bride is now getting a blemish.
15:44 Spot is coming. Why you’re not thinking more highly of others? Think more highly. Humble ourselves and just teach them.
15:51 Practice. Help them. Now, if they do not want or they’re doing repeatedly something, then you after telling them also, then bring it up to the elders.
15:59 Bring up the elders and two or three will counsel. And after counseling two or three counseling them they don’t want to listen to. Then the council will decide what to do with that soul.
16:08 Whether to ask the soul to leave or soul to do something else. Go fast and pray or whatever. But there are steps Jesus Christ has put now.
16:17 So you think highly. You deal with it. You start off with a problem.
16:20 Any issue. Can we help? Can we settle this? What is the issue? They don’t open up. Then you have to tell them the problem.
16:26 Then after that they don’t. They have. Then you have to take it up to the counselor.
16:32 Why? That’s how Jesus Christ has put. If you are a disciple, you will follow this system. Follow this step.
16:37 At the same time you will be devout to be devoted to each other. Devoted to each other. Devoted to each other.
16:44 Because by this others will know that we are disciples of Jesus Christ. So love one another as he has loved us. Otherwise Jesus the God.
16:52 God is not abiding in us. There’s a clear scripture. In Jesus name I pray.
16:57 Change today, brothers and sisters. There is hope. We have power.
