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.

These are nine gifts of the Holy Spirit. Now what has happened is when I first came to the Lord and God has arrested me and I’m trying to, you know, just very grateful to Jesus Christ.
01:44 Grateful, grateful for peace, joy. So I go. So there will be preachers coming from all over the world and then they will be preaching about designing the gifts of the Holy Spirit and they will be stirring up the gifts, which is all true.
01:59 True. Even Apostle Paul told them, stir up the gifts. That means nobody using the gifts stir up the gifts that you have.
02:06 Stir now. But of course what they fail is they begin to desire this. Now then people are going around there, what gift shall I have? What? What the gifts you have.
02:16 What gifts the other person has. This became a big issue, you know, so I’m wondering in the spirit, in my spirit, although I’m just a few weeks old in Christ, there’s a serious check in my spirit. Why are these people chasing these gifts? And then after that, then when I ask somebody, yes, you’re supposed to desire the gifts towards the gifts.
02:35 But why was my spirit distressed? Is I’m sure it was the spirit of God was distressing my spirit. Because there are other things which you have to do first we have to have the Gifts of the Holy Spirit we can desire, we must desire, we can cover. The only place to cover churches is this other worldly covetousness is terrible sin and will destroy us.
02:57 And God’s word says cover the gifts. You want the gifts. But what God’s word is not the whole counsel of God.
03:06 That’s why when people take counsel one scripture here and start chasing and then which goes to the flesh, why they are chasing here and there. It’s not spirit led. It was carnal led, it was worldly led.
03:18 I want a gift. I want a gift. I will do the gift.
03:21 I’ll do great exploits for God. I will work for God. Then they’ll say, your fire for God.
03:27 All this must put aside. First rule of life in Christ is humbleness. Humbleness.
03:33 But more importantly. Now let’s look at, you know, the other thing. There are fruits of the Spirit.
03:38 There are fruits of the Spirit. Now the fruits of the Spirit is love. It is in Galatians 5, 22, 23.
03:48 Love, joy, peace. It starts off like this. Now, by contrast, I am reading from the Catholic edition.
03:55 By contrast, the fruit of the Spirit. That’s from the contrast from the world on all the sinful things. The fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, peace, patience, kindness, generosity, faithfulness, gentleness and self control.
04:08 There’s no law against such. I mean, we have to practice this. Nobody is going to stop this now.
04:13 Brothers and sisters, what is happening here is we need to get the fruits of the Spirit first. Coveting the gifts of the Holy Spirit that goes around. It even goes around now.
04:26 They feed this so much into people. People want to do great things for God. I’ll do a great work for God.
04:32 When the fundamental is not done, first you have the fruit of the Spirit must bear in you. It must come out. People see that you have love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, generosity, faithfulness, gentleness and self control.
04:48 That is why there will be people who are chasing of these gifts of the Holy Spirit and even trying to apply the gifts of the Holy Spirit. And then they will try. God gave me a word for you.
04:56 God gave me a word for you. And they go around, but they completely ignore the fundamental. The fundamental is first of all, when you are in Christ, the fruit of the Spirit must come out, must bear fruit.
05:11 You are bearing fruit by the fruit of the. When you say you bear much fruit, first of all is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, generosity, faithfulness, gentleness and self control. This gentleness is a new modern English.
05:25 Don’t mistake for this. It is humbleness to the word of God. Humbleness to God.
05:29 Now can you imagine? Jesus went and turned all the tables in the temple and started whipping all kinds of things made of whip and went around whipping and chasing everybody out obviously. So that cannot be gentleness, isn’t it? That gentleness that we understand is gentleness. We understand gentleness like a weak man, you know, hello brother, how are you? False humility and trying to pretend to be husband.
05:53 Hello brother, how are you? That’s not the general address nonsense. Jesus Christ was tough. Was a man.
06:01 Man, man, man. What? He was unheard as a man. He was tough what is right, what is wrong.
06:07 But when he sees somebody suffering, his heart will melt. When he sees somebody calling out for mercy, his heart will be compassionate. When he saw this Lazarus and around people, all around the grave are weeping, his heart broke.
06:22 And the word of God says in that two words, Jesus wept. In that phrase, there’s only two words, Jesus wept. Can you imagine a whole phrase in the Bible, just two words, Jesus wept.
06:35 Why compassionate? You’re talking about that you’re not talking about. Hello, how are you, brother? You know all this false humility and pretend to be. Now you know, with all these things happening in the world today, men are becoming like women.
06:48 Like. Isn’t it because of the petroleum fumes and all that are disturbing? That can’t help it. The things are going around so bad.
06:54 So depict them physically. The God of this world, Satan is releasing all these poisons through the petroleum and mimicking all the estrogen. And young girls way before 6, 7, all having puberty already.
07:08 Why? Because of fumes. So the whole world being destroyed by Satan now. So here, priority one first is seek the fruits of the Holy Spirit.
07:22 The fruit. You say fruit, not fruit, sorry, fruit of the Holy Spirit. The fruit of the Holy Spirit is all that love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, generosity, faithfulness, gentleness and self control.
07:32 I’ve narrated a section before. Please search it in the Power of Christ daily from the from the site graceoflife.com and you’ll see you can find one. Ask the moderators explaining.
07:47 It’s a fruit. One fruit. Having all these things inside there now.
07:51 Brothers and sisters, 2nd Corinthians 11:2. I feel a divine jealousy for you. I’m reading the category here.
08:00 For I promised you in marriage to one husband to present you as a chaste virgin to Christ. Holy. Chaste virgin describes this holy without blemish, without spot.
08:10 These things come first before you start running to cover the gifts of the Holy Spirit. These things come first Bear the fruit of the Holy Spirit first and again to remember that our body is a temple of God. For instance, Romans 12:1 2.
08:25 I appeal to you, therefore. Catholic edition. I appeal to you, therefore, brothers and sisters, by the mercies of God, by to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship.
08:38 Do not be conformed to the world, but be transformed by the renewing of your minds so that you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable, perfect will of God for you. Now, brothers and sisters, we must understand the fundamentals. First.
08:53 When Jesus bought us with his own blood, bought me with his own blood, he expects me to present my body as a living sacrifice. How? As a chaste virgin unto Christ, without blemish, holy, spotless. He has put me in the presence.
09:10 Why? That’s why Apostle Paul is saying he wishes to present earth as a living sacrifice. He wants to present us by the mercies of God. Now he said, appeal to you, therefore, brothers and sisters, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice.
09:27 We are supposed to present our bodies as living sacrifice. Now, can you imagine having all kinds of sins? We don’t overcome that. Because by the blood of Jesus Christ, by the name of Jesus Christ, by the power of Jesus Christ, we can overcome.
09:39 That’s why he bought and gave us the power. We don’t want to do any of that. I want the gifts of God.
09:42 I want the gifts of the Holy Spirit. I want the gifts of the Holy Spirit. I want a word of wisdom.
09:46 I want a working of miracles. I want a wonder, working faith. I want extraordinary gifts of healing.
09:52 Wrong. Absolutely wrong. Go and desire first to present your bodies as a chaste version to Christ, as living sacrifice, which is your spiritual worship.
10:03 That’s the first act of worship. Because God said, what? I am in spirit. I am a spirit.
10:08 I am spirit. Worship means spirit and in truth. So what we should do, we should have spiritual worship.
10:15 What is a spiritual worship? Clearly. Romans 12:1 2 is saying, present your bodies as a living sacrifice, which is holy and acceptable to God. Only.
10:24 Then. And he said, do not be conformed with this world. Do not be changed by the world.
10:29 Do not follow the world, do not be overtaken by the world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind so that you may discern what is the will of God. You want to know the will of God? First you must be not conformed to this world. And then you must be transformed by the renewing of your minds and how do you transform? By the renewing of your minds, by meditating on the word of God.
10:51 For that particular issue, let us say it’s anger or whatever you are having. You have to take the scriptures against anger, the consequences of anger. Anger.
11:00 If you’re angry at the brother without cause, you are a murderer. God said, now do not let the anger go. Don’t let the sun go down on anger.
11:08 Before you go to sleep, get rid of the anger. Why? Anger is the spirit. While your body is sleeping, the spirit of anger is whacking your spirit man.
11:15 Whole night long. Diseases will come, morning, you’re not rested. You’ve got all kinds of issues.
11:20 Now remember this. So therefore, first act is to present our bodies as a chaste virgin to Christ. In this case, as a living sacrifice.
11:31 Holy and acceptable living sacrifice. Spiritual worship. We have to do that first, focus on that, and then at the same time.
11:39 How do we get that? To get the fruit of the Holy Spirit, which is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, generosity, faithfulness, gentleness and self control. All this is Galatians 5, 22, 23. Now we have to desire this verse, desire this verse.
11:55 And then we begin to present this. We want to make Jesus pleased. We want to bless the Lord Jesus.
11:57 We want to make him joyful because of the sacrifice. Such a terrible suffering he went through. Now we say, lord Jesus, I want to make you joyful.
12:12 My spiritual worship is this keeping my temple of God holy. Therefore another scripture will say, do you not know that you are the temple of God? And anyone defiling the temple of God will be destroyed. God says, the temple of God is our body.
12:28 He said, I will not live in a building made of hands, but I will live in the only. That means I live in the building not made of hands. The only thing not made of hands, as a building, as a home, is our bodies.
12:41 He wants to live in our bodies. He’s not going to live in a building. So sometimes they say, I’m building a big building for God to live in this building.
12:49 Not through. Not through. He will live only in our building.
12:53 That’s our body that he made. Now we can make a big building. He’s not going to be there, first of all, until your temple of God.
13:00 He’s going to live only in the temple of God. If everybody who is following Christ comes to the building, then of course he comes. Two or three are gathered in his name.
13:09 But the Holy Spirit, Jesus Christ, through the Holy Spirit, is in us, in our bodies. So we must present our bodies as a living sacrifice. Which is a spiritual worship.
13:20 But when you present our body as a living sacrifice, of course you must have the fruit of the spirit. Love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, generosity, faithfulness, gentleness and self control. We have to desire this.
13:33 We begin to desire this. Therefore, always the problem is very easy for our flesh to get into the act when somebody comes and preaches. Desire covered the gifts of the Holy Spirit.
13:45 Everybody running around, but they completely forget they have seen. They will be arguing, there will be quarreling, unforgiveness will be there, there’ll be no peace really. But all this.
13:55 But they’re all chasing and all chasing every day. And everybody, oh, no peace, no oneness, no one accord. Quarreling in the church and then kama doing repeatedly sins.
14:10 Those who are practicing sin, Jesus Christ’s word is clear. You’re not born of God, you’re born of the devil. They’re practicing sin on and on.
14:17 And they’re desiring the gifts of the Holy Spirit instead of desiring the fruit of the spirit. Brothers and sisters, today let’s take this as a warning. We must desire the fruit of the spirit.
14:28 Now further, having said that and remember, our body is the temple of God and anyone defiling the temple will be destroyed. The word is clear now. When we come to the Lord Jesus Christ, we are required to present our bodies as a living sacrifice.
14:42 And that is a spiritual worship. And that is done by not being conformed to this world, but being transformed by the renewing of your minds so that you may discern what is the will of God. If you do not be renewed in the spirit of your mind, you will not know the will of God for you.
15:00 So therefore, brothers and sisters, today start seeking scriptures. In fact, I think there are almost 250. I think it’s 250.
15:08 I think 250 recordings of this daily morning recording so many. I’m actually shocked and amazed at the same time. And I’m so grateful to Jesus Christ to make me do this.
15:21 Because when I get up, I may not have a message. I don’t know what it is. But then it comes and I have to go and search for the scriptures and plug it sometimes, sometimes I get it in the night, the scriptures.
15:31 Then I can make the email first so it makes easier. But sometimes, like today, yesterday was a long day and difficult day. So we are tired.
15:42 So then I couldn’t do it in the night. So I came this morning asking Jesus what. So he told me this.
15:47 So I had to. So today I got to find something by mercy of Jesus Christ. Can still do this.
15:52 And then I got all this. Ready? Now I’m recording. Thank Jesus Christ of Nazareth.
15:57 Brothers and sisters, now there’s another thing that I need to conclude. As the Lord lives, but earnestly desire and strive for the greater gift, Acquiring them is going to be a goal. Okay? So he’s saying that desire for the greater gift, the gifts of the Spirit.
16:22 And yet he says, Apostle Paul says in Corinthians 1, 1231. And yet he said, literally, he covered the gifts of the Holy Spirit. And yet I will show you a still more excellent way.
16:36 This is very important, brothers and sisters. Remember the First Corinthians 12:31, Apostle Paul telling us, yes, after presenting ourselves as a chaste virgin to Christ in spiritual worship, in living sacrifice, and acquiring the fruit of the Spirit, of desiring the fruit of the Spirit, he’s now telling us, yes, now desire the gifts of the Spirit. But yet I’ll show you a more excellent way, which is love.
17:04 Without love, I am nothing. He said, in Jesus name I pray, amen.
Listen to this audio recording, based on the Word of GOD, now!

00:00 Praise Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Brothers and sisters, today the power of Christ Daily 2 February 2016. The Holy Spirit, titled the Holy Spirit, brothers and sisters, especially for new Christians that we very much confused about the Holy Spirit because they do not understand, because they do not know yet. And my people perish for lack of wisdom, for lack of knowledge.
00:27 God’s word is clear. So we must gather as much knowledge and wisdom as one, but from the Scriptures, not what the world is teaching us. That knowledge, all of us gathered, whether willingly, unwillingly, unwittingly, without realizing the thing, has been bombarded on us through the television, through the advertisement, through the Hollywood, Bollywood, all the new cinemas and, and video games or what have you over the years of people talking, parents talking, teachers saying this and that.
00:58 All that has gone into us over the years, and many of it, most of it in fact, will be worldly because they themselves are lost. So now that you’ve come and Jesus Christ has opened your spiritual eyes of understanding and you know he is the King of kings and Lord of Lords. He is the one who went to suffer on the cross.
01:18 Before the cross, he suffered, he suffered on the cross, died and he went to hell. Then he went three days into Hades and then to rise again for you, for me. Then now you realize that the Spirit man will begin to understand the things of the Spirit.
01:34 Because the Holy Spirit, born of the Spirit will understand the things of the Spirit. If you are still carnal, you are not born of the Spirit. Even what I am saying here, you may not understand.
01:43 So if you don’t understand, please start talking to Jesus Christ, asking for forgiveness, admitting that we are sinners. We all have sinned. Small sin, big sin, plenty of sin.
01:54 I had plenty of sin. Likewise, everyone sinned. Jesus word is clear.
01:59 All have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God. Ask for forgiveness, ask for mercy with a broken heart. That means you must want a broken heart to know that.
02:08 And contrite spirit, you are wrong. You have sinned against God, you have sinned against people, you have sinned against yourself. Now therefore, please ask for forgiveness and ask Jesus Christ to take control of your life and dedicate your life to Jesus Christ and say he will be the Lord and master and Savior for you from today.
02:26 And that you command your heart and mind in the name of Jesus Christ, to obey Jesus Christ in everything. And the word of God is Jesus, the word of God is Jesus Christ. So you obey the Word.
02:39 Willing to obey the Word. I’m not telling you to obey me. I’m not because I myself have a problem obeying.
02:46 Obeying even the Word of God. My heart may not want to obey. This is a normal thing.
02:51 Our hearts are like this. They are made of three parts, Spirit, soul and body. Our hearts are tragically wicked.
02:57 The Word of God says so. It’s been changed from glory to glory by Jesus Christ. How? First, we must be renewed in the Spirit of our mind.
03:06 By taking the Word of God and meditating on the Word of God. And the Spirit of God through the Word of God is saying us, saying to us, when we look at the Word of God and meditate as if in a mirror. So when we go away, also keep thinking of the Word of God.
03:21 If we go away and don’t remember the Word of God, it’s like a man who looks himself in the mirror. As soon as he turns away, he forgets what it looks like. Please keep meditating on the Word of God.
03:31 Take a few words of God and meditate on that daily. And another word of God later, when this is settled. And you will be changed from glory to glory.
03:39 Because when the Spirit of our mind changes, the heart changes. Brothers and sisters, today let’s look at Isaiah 11:2 from Amplified. And the Spirit of Lord will rest on him.
03:49 This is Jesus Christ. The Spirit of God will rest on him. The Spirit of wisdom and understanding, the Spirit of counsel and strength, the Spirit of knowledge and of fear of God.
03:59 Fear of God is reverential obedience. That is what the provider explained. Now remember, many times people will think the Holy Spirit, is it like a power? Is it some power? They start using the technical term dunamis.
04:13 You know, all this. No need. Take simple.
04:16 Try and understand simple words. Some people are so wanting to show that they know the technical terms, these Latin terms or the Greek terms, or these Hebrew terms or whatever. They’ll begin to use that, you know, dunamis and this and that.
04:31 Just. You see, a power is. Is the Spirit of God.
04:34 Is it a power? Is it current? You know, because the Spirit of God hovered around the earth. Father God says in the beginning, you know, in Genesis itself. So now we will come to read from Scripture to find out what is the Holy Spirit.
04:49 And we’ll get from there the Holy Spirit. John 15:26, amplified. But when the helper, comforter, advocate, intercessor, counselor, strengthener, stand by.
05:02 Who stands by to help you? When the helper in bracket, the amplified saying is comforter, is advocate, intercessor into the forest. Counselor, strength, comforter and counselor, advocate, intercessor, strengthener and standby comes when the helper comes. John 15:26 means Jesus is speaking, comes.
05:23 Whom I will send to you? Jesus is saying, whom I will send to you from the Father, that is the Spirit of truth. So the Holy Spirit. There are different names and giving you different characteristics.
05:37 Different characteristics of the Holy Spirit, the Spirit of truth who comes from the Father. He will testify and bear witness about me. The Holy Spirit will testify and bear witness about me.
05:49 Now the word used is he who. The Holy Spirit is a person. The Holy Spirit is a person.
05:57 It’s clear from scripture a number of places you will find he, the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is a person. That is Father God, Jesus Christ, the Word of God, the Holy Spirit, the Spirit of God.
06:09 The three are one. That’s why they decided to use the word Trinity. All these also we need not have used.
06:14 But anyway, people have introduced the word Trinity to say that there are three of them, but same time they are separate. So how is it these are three of them? Father God, Word of God, and that is Jesus Christ, who is Jesus Christ and the Spirit of God, who is the Holy Spirit. How can three be separate and one? So one example that was given is like water.
06:36 You take a cup of water and you divide that into three and then make one into steam. You heat it until it becomes steam. The other one you make into ice.
06:43 The other one is just plain water sitting there at room temperature. Now you can imagine from the same glass of water you divided that in three, you have different characteristics. One is steam, one is ice and one is water at room temperature.
07:01 This will clearly show you that it’s possible to have the same thing in three different ways at the same time. And that is a mystery. Because whatever our worldly mind, our carnal mind, our natural mind cannot understand is because the Spirit of God only can teach us.
07:20 Now therefore, please accept it when you don’t understand what Jesus says. When you do not understand, you do not understand because you do not accept what I am saying. So first of all, when the Word of God is spoken, accept it.
07:36 When your heart is confused, there mind is confused. This is a very important key. You command your heart and mind to accept the word of God in the name of Jesus Christ.
07:44 I command my heart and mind to to accept what the Word of God is saying. God is saying the Spirit of truth will come from Father God. The Spirit of truth is the Holy Spirit.
07:54 So the Holy Spirit is in me. He will speak the truth. He will convict me of the truth.
07:57 He will convict me when I am going to sin or Sin already. He will guide me. And then you get stressed.
08:05 He will testify and bear witness about me. Jesus said, he means he is a person. So we better reverence the Holy Spirit, because he is a person.
08:14 But three of them are one. Father, God, Jesus Christ, the Word and the Holy Spirit are one. So even when you speak to Jesus Christ, it will still be done.
08:23 Because the Holy Spirit will only do what Jesus Christ, our Father God has told us to do. He will not do more outside that parameter. For instance, when we look at John 16, 7, 11.
08:39 But I tell you the truth. Jesus is saying, it is to your advantage that I go away. Jesus Christ is saying I must go away.
08:46 For if I do not go away, the helper, comforter, advocate, intercessor, counselor, strengthener and stand by. This person who stands by to help you will not come to you. But if I go, I will send him.
09:02 Praise Jesus Christ. Brothers and sisters, the lingering fluid. I was send him the Holy Spirit to you to be in close fellowship with you.
09:11 And he to be in close fellowship with you. He will be in close fellowship with you. It’s really, you know, sometimes we struggle.
09:19 I want to speak to the Holy Spirit. I want to speak to. Relax, relax, Father.
09:24 God is in complete control. Jesus Christ is complete control. Everything has been put under the feet of Jesus Christ is in control.
09:30 He loves you. He will move the circumstances and he’ll get things done. In close fellowship with you.
09:36 Means whatever Jesus said will come to you. And he, when he comes, that is the Holy Spirit. He again when he comes, will convict the world about sin, the guilt of sin.
09:46 Sin is your guilt of sin means it’s condemning you. You’re dying of sin. I was dying in sin.
09:54 And the need for a savior about righteousness, about go about judgment. This the Holy Spirit is doing nothing for us to do. 9.
10:02 About sin and the true nature of it. Because they do not believe in me and my message. 10 about righteousness.
10:09 That’s personal integrity and godly character. Because I’m going to my Father and you will no longer see me. He’s telling his disciples, I’m going to my Father.
10:17 You’ll no longer see me, but I have to send the Holy Spirit. If I don’t go, the Holy Spirit cannot come about judgment, the certainty of it. The Holy Spirit convicts the world because the ruler of this world is Satan has been judged and condemned.
10:30 He see he is in judgment, condemned. But he has not been executed yet. Power has been taken out of Satan, but Satan has not been executed.
10:38 He will finally be thrown into first into the bottomless pit and held there for thousand years. Then he’ll be thrown into the lake of fire. Now, until then, he’s the ruler of the world.
10:51 He’s still the ruler of the world. But Jesus will come take control of the world. Before Jesus left, he said, what? My kingdom is not of this world.
10:58 Because right now he’s not bothered about the world and the kingdom of the world. He’s bothered about getting his disciples, getting his followers. Therefore, each of us now must be disciples.
11:10 Remember yesterday or day previously, it is in Antioch that the disciples were first called Christians. So if you are a Christian, you have to be a disciple. We do not want to fool ourselves.
11:23 We want to live in the truth now. Ephesians 1, 13, 14. In him you also, when you heard the word of truth and the good news of salvation, you believed in him.
11:37 That is Jesus Christ was stamped. And the seal of promise. The Holy Spirit as owned and protected by God.
11:44 The promise of Christ. The seal of promise. What? The seal of the promised Holy Spirit.
11:50 The Holy Spirit comes as a seal over us. The Holy Spirit comes and puts a seal that we are being promised for salvation. We are the spirit is a guarantee.
12:00 14. The spirit is the guarantee. The first installment, a pledge.
12:04 The foretaste of our inheritance. Until the redemption of God’s own possession. To the praise of his glory.
12:11 This what simply says is that the Spirit of Holy Spirit when he comes, he puts a seal. He’s a seal for us. When he comes, he becomes a seal for us.
12:21 As a pledge, as a first installment of our inheritance. This for us to know. Jesus Christ, Father, God has given the Holy Spirit.
12:29 Jesus has gone and sent the Holy Spirit. And it’s a seal for us. It’s a promise.
12:33 It’s an installment. It’s a pledge of our inheritance. Until the full redemption of God’s own possession.
12:40 Until we completely redeemed. That happens when Jesus Christ comes and takes control of the earth. And we are with him now, brothers and sisters, so it’s important.
12:49 But Jesus. You speak to Jesus. You speak to Jesus.
12:54 Because the Holy spirit now John 16:13. A sorry, John 16:13. But when he, the Spirit of truth comes, he will guide you into all the truth, full and complete truth.
13:07 For he will not speak on his own initiative, but he will speak whatever he hears from the Father. The message regarding the Son. And he will disclose to you what is to come in the future.
13:19 He will begin to lead you. He will begin to guide you. He will begin to comfort you.
13:23 He is a comforter. But he will do only what the Father has determined through the message of His Son. He will only do what the message of Jesus Christ is.
13:33 1 Corinthians 2:14. But the natural unbelieving man does not accept the things of the Spirit of God. You see, if you’re not born of the Spirit, you will not accept what the Spirit of God is telling, for they are foolishness, absurd and illogical to him.
13:54 Amplified, the natural unbelieving man does not accept the things of the Spirit of God for their foolishness, absurd and illogical tweets, and is incapable of understanding them because they are spiritually discerned and appreciated. And he is unqualified to judge spiritual matters. That’s why when you are not born again, you cannot understand when people say, okay, don’t rush, brother, don’t rush, sister, don’t rush.
14:19 And do this, wait, Jesus will do something for you. If you rush, you’ll end up making mistakes. Because when you say, two jobs offered, and we know one job can maybe more money, but maybe more trouble, so we say, wait on the Lord, wait on the Lord Jesus, waiting for the Holy Spirit to guide us.
14:35 But sometimes they rise because if they’re not spiritually discerning in that area where their heart is caught in that, their heart wants that. So you cannot be spiritually discerning in an area. You can be born again in the Spirit, but in many areas, our hearts have not been converted and the heart has blocked us from knowing the spiritual discernment for that issue.
14:56 So they will end up getting in trouble. So therefore God says, if you are not, if you keep on believing the worldly way, you will not accept the things of the Spirit of God, because the things of the Spirit of God will be opposite to what the world says. So now, brothers and sisters, this is critical.
15:17 So let us now first of all begin to understand. We now want to wait on the Lord Jesus Christ, who through the Holy Spirit will guide us. The Holy Spirit intercedes for us.
15:28 Jesus Christ intercedes for us. He says all things work for the good of those who love God and are the called according to his purpose. So even when trouble comes, there’s segments, several, four or five segments about why Jesus allows trials, why Jesus allows trials for many reasons, for our good.
15:47 Finally, so that we will train in the Spirit. We will not just follow what we sow, we will reap. That also will happen.
15:54 And Jesus doesn’t cause trouble, doesn’t create trouble for us. It doesn’t tempt people. God cannot be tempted.
16:00 He will not tempt anyone. But he will not block some trouble for us. He will allow the trouble.
16:05 Because through the trouble we are trained. We are trained. Our spirit man is trained.
16:05 Because through the trouble we have to cry out to Jesus Christ because we will know we cannot do when the trouble comes, other things we can do. I can do this, I can do that. You cannot.
16:20 You can do nothing without me. Jesus Christ said, you can do nothing without me. Jesus Christ said, so what the untrained carnal mind will say, natural mind.
16:30 So I do nothing? I do nothing? People ask. No, you wait on the Lord. You start worshiping Jesus Christ.
16:36 You start examining yourself to see where you have given a foothold to the devil. You start casting out the evil spirits and all that. Casting out prayers and receiving prayers.
16:46 Receive the good spirit. You begin to do all that. You just don’t sit down there like a dodo, do nothing.
16:51 But you deal in the spirit. The battle is in the spiritual plane. In Jesus name I pray all understand today.

00:01 Praise Jesus Christ of Nazareth, brothers and sisters, today, the power of Christ Daily 1st February 2016 who is a Christian? Who is a Christian? The question can also be what is a Christian, brothers and sisters? This for instance, if you look at the Webster dictionary, they say a Christian is defined as someone who believes in the teachings of Christ, someone who believes in the teachings of Christ. And these kind of worldly definitions go. And this also of course crept in into the church. Now of course there are people going to church coming, including the ministry I minister in the church that God has given me to minister over his church Jesus Christ has given me to minister over.
00:32 Now of course they go and come and they listen, they may even listen to counsel. But only Jesus Christ can determine whether you are a Christian or not. And he has defined it.
00:59 He has defined it. So there’s no confusion really. Now the word Christian has become so loosely used that so long as anybody goes to church and come goes to church and come Sundays they say, oh, you’re a Christian.
01:12 Or somebody says praise the Lord, then they think it’s a Christian. It’s all that is form necessary. Praise Jesus Christ of Nazareth.
01:21 You will say better praise the Lord. Praise the Lord. We don’t know which Lord we’re talking about.
01:25 And of course they do not know. Many do not know. The devil came to steal, kill and destroy.
01:30 And, and it’s still around. And the apostles spoke about it years onwards after that, after Jesus left for years they speak about it and said, do not give the devil a foothold, one foothold only, no need to give many footholds, one foothold. And devil will take full advantage and make our life a mess.
01:46 And his strategy to make us believe that God has done something to you. Never ever complain about God. Never ever complain about Jesus Christ.
01:50 Never ever complain about God Almighty. Never ever. That’s the beginning of a complete destruction.
02:00 Because the devil will take complete advantage of you. Jesus will still be merciful to you, but the devil will begin to hammer you. And there’s nothing Jesus can do because your will, he allows you your will and your will doesn’t want to submit to his will.
02:14 So when that goes on, how you tell me if you do not submit to the will of Jesus Christ, the power, the blessing, the promises that have already been completed on the cross are sitting down there. They cannot flow into you. They cannot flow into you.
02:28 Why? Your will is blocking his will from operating in your life. So this is one of the biggest problems we all face, including me. Now brothers and sisters, now let’s look at this.
02:40 In the book of Acts 11:26, book of Acts 11:26. I’m reading from the Catholic edition. And when he had found him, they brought him to Antioch.
02:51 So it was for an entire year they met with the Church and taught a great many people. This Apostle Paul taught a great many people. And what is Antioch that the disciples were first called Christians? I’m sorry, I’m not too sure whether it’s Apostle Paul here.
03:05 Now, the Church taught a great many people, and it was in Antioch that the disciples were first called Christians. Now, in the New Testament, of course, in the Christian, the word Christian is mentioned three times. Three times the word Christian.
03:20 Some new translation may even take that out. Now, it was in Antioch that the disciples were first called Christians. Who were called Christians? Disciples, not simply believers.
03:31 Now, this has again taken root in these churches where people begin to believe. You believe, and it’s one level of Christianity, and you are a Christian already. And then discipleship is a higher level of something.
03:44 And they’ll say, okay, you first believe and then slowly, slowly you become a disciple. No, that’s not true. Because if you’re going to be called a Christian, you have to be a disciple.
03:54 And only disciples were first called Christians. Disciples mean people not only just believe in the teaching, they do the teaching. They disciplined in obeying the word of God, obeying any disciple, any disciple, by any training.
04:08 They obey and do what has been told by the master of that discipline. In this case, Jesus Christ of Nazareth is our master, our Lord, our Savior. We do so only doer of the Word.
04:20 Finally, the doer of the word, that word of God is a disciple. Now, that is why in 1 Peter 4:16. Yet if any of you suffers as a Christian or a Christian, actually the right word is Christian.
04:37 Do not consider it a disgrace, but glorify God. Because you bear this name. What name? The name of Christ.
04:45 So if somebody condemns you for following Christ, oh, rejoice, rejoice. Somebody follows you, condemns you following Christ, they begin to poke you for following Christ, Rejoice. But if somebody condemns you because you’re doing wrong, you better be remorseful, better be sorry, better change.
05:09 You know, it’s very sad. What happens is there are people who do not change. And then there are people outside in the world will tell you, hey, you have not changed.
05:16 You say you are a Christian. In fact, once you say you are a Christian already, the people outside the world waiting to see whether you change or not. If you do not change, you are doing the Same old, same old sin, anger, frustration, pride, stubbornness, selfish, self seeking all that we are doing.
05:37 Then the person outside person, not non Christian will slowly say you are not changed. And in those who don’t tell also they know, they think these false are false liars only they say they’re Christians but actually don’t obey. Now belief, the word belief, belief has got to trust in, adhere to, cling to cling on.
05:58 You know the Hebrew word, the English word, suddenly replace it with belief because it’s the only word they can find. But actually it means a lot of things in the Hebrew text. In the Hebrew language it’s an Asian language, just like Chinese and Tamil, the Asian languages.
06:13 And so if they give one word in the Asian language, it will take many words in the English language to explain that particular word in that Asian language, it will take many English words to actually properly translate and reflect the actual meaning of that particular Asian word. That is a problem that the translation began like this. Just believe and everybody.
06:38 And over as the years go by break. Do you believe that so and so is the prime minister of your country? Yes, because it’s not news every day for couple of years already you heard maybe elected last election six months ago. Now you are listening, listening, listen.
06:51 Now of course you know the promise says that, but do you that’s not what the belief that the Hebrew text is talking about. Belief means whatever this person is telling you, believe and do be a doer of the word. So do you really believe Jesus Christ? There were the other things I’ll say is if anyone.
07:10 Now I’m going to refer the Jewish Bible 1st Peter 4:16, which I read just now. If any of you suffers from the Catholic edition I read if any of you suffers as a Christian, do not consider it a disgrace, but glorify God because you bears his name. The name of Christ.
07:26 1st Peter 4:16. Again complete Jewish Bible. But if anyone suffers for being messianic, let him not be ashamed, but let him bring glory to God by the way he bears the name.
07:39 So when you’re suffering also by the way you bear the name. By the way you bear the suffering. Messianic means disciple in the Jewish Bible.
07:49 Disciple, Disciple. Messianic. Now Messiah.
07:53 Messiah is the Christ the Savior. Messianic means you follow you, you obey, you do everything he tells you, you submit. Now what then happens? John 1:12 but to as many as did receive him.
08:06 It’s a Jewish Bible I’m reading to those who put their trust in this person and power. They are not just believer. Those who put their trust in his person and power.
08:14 Those who put their trust, their trust. I must put my trust in Jesus person as a person of Jesus Christ and the power of Jesus Christ. He gave the right to become children of God.
08:29 He gave a right. Now we have to begin to exercise the right. We must become doers of the Word.
08:34 As we become doer of the Word, then we become disciplined in Jesus command. Then as we become disciplined in Jesus command, we are being disciples. But disciples we can start from the beginning and say, I want to be a disciple.
08:45 I declare, I proclaim, I command my heart and mind that from today I will be disciplined in Christ. And everything Christ tells me to do, I will do. I will reject the world and follow Christ.
08:57 Come, follow me, he said. Now, can you imagine that particular thing if you read the context? How Jesus told Peter, come, follow me. When Peter’s boat was full of fish, that’s when.
09:08 Because they were not bearing anything, any fish. And Jesus was there to preach. He wanted the boat.
09:14 He wanted to sit on the top of the boat and preach. So he did that. They asked Peter.
09:18 Peter said, yes, my Lord. So he preached after preaching. I think he went and said, have you caught anything? No.
09:25 Then he said, go ahead, do this. So when they went and did that, first of all, Peter was thinking, we tried the whole night long, no fish and all that. Then go and do this.
09:33 Went and did that. Full of fish. But you know, after catching the full of fish, when the boat is full of fish, in fact it is struggling to.
09:42 It is sinking a bit inside, you know, he’s not sinking. It is going down, weighted by the weight. It’s gone a bit down.
09:51 Then Jesus said, come, follow me. You know what Peter did? Just followed him. Just followed him.
09:57 Why? Peter didn’t say, what about the fish? Peter didn’t say, what about my boat? Boat is valuable. Big boats. These are not simple ones running a small trumpet, small dinghies, you know.
10:09 Then Matthew, you know what was Matthew. Matthew sitting down there. He’s the text collector.
10:14 He says his table is full of money under, inside the trousers and all that. And some will bring out some money, I suppose. I do not know.
10:20 Now, when Jesus passing by, he didn’t stop. As he passed by, he told Matthew, come, follow me. That’s all, Matthew, come, follow me.
10:31 So Matthew stopped, left the money and just followed. What about the problem? Because the problem is he’s collecting on behalf of the government. So what will happen to the government and the authorities? But he just followed.
10:44 Why he followed because he believed Jesus Christ. And you know what? Nothing happened in Matthew with the government and the authority. Because we follow Jesus Christ, he will do something.
10:53 The authority’s mind, the authority’s mind and heart are all settled. Jesus will settle them if you truly follow. But if you half heart follow and expect Jesus Christ to settle the minds of those who are angry with you or whatever, it’s not going to work.
11:07 Because people may be angry with you or me because of what we did, not because we did as a Christian. So if we are suffering as a Christian, we glorify his name and we bear his name and give glory. By the way we bear his name, we accept.
11:21 Suppose we say, I cannot do this. The boss tells you to fill the books so that you can get a better loan for the company. I cannot do this, boss.
11:29 I took a covenant. I took a covenant with Jesus Christ that anything I do, I will not do. I will do according to his word.
11:36 And his word says I cannot do this. I’m sorry. Now, of course if frightened double can attack you.
11:41 But this is the Christian who humbles himself and tells why he cannot. I got a vow. If I put that vow aside, I’ll be condemned.
11:49 I’ll have problems, I’ll be cursed. And anyone making me do that also will cover the curse. Because God doesn’t want anyone making me do wrong things that against him what I covenanted, what I vowed.
12:01 So, so sorry, boy. Then you see what happens. And even if they attack you, God will give you another job.
12:06 But there’s only one job in the entire world, in the entire town. Praise Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Today, brothers and sisters.
12:11 Now let’s look at this now. John. So when did they call them Christians, the disciples? They only called disciples first in Antioch they were called Christians.
12:22 When they were disciples disciplined in Christ, they determined to follow Christ. They determined, they decided. So as the day you decide, I will follow Jesus Christ.
12:32 Lord, make me follow you completely in every aspect of your word and everything you want me to do. That’s the day you become a disciple. Yes.
12:39 Then there’s a walk as a disciple. There will be challenges as a disciple. There will be issues as a disciple.
12:46 But you begin to do. You begin to do now. John 8:31.
12:51 So Jesus was saying to the Jews who had believed him, so people have believed him that he was only preaching to the Jews at that time. Now, if you abide in my word, abide in my word. It simply says, if you abide my word, you are truly my disciples.
13:07 This I am reading my amplified. So in bracket Amplified is explaining what his abide is. If you abide in my word, continually obeying my teachings and living in accordance with them, then you are truly my disciples.
13:21 So abide in my word means continually obeying my teachings, Jesus Christ teachings, and living in accordance with them, then you are truly my disciples. See, to be truly disciples, it’s not simply say I obey, I obey. No, continually obeying his teachings and living in accordance with that word, then you are truly my disciples.
13:43 These are words of Jesus Christ. Some will get angry with me for quoting this because they off and on they lapse, they go and do something, they get addicted to something or whatever. And then today for one, two days or one week, two weeks, they don’t smoke and then suddenly end up smoking again and all that.
13:58 And then they get angry with me when I quote this. Praise Jesus Christ of Nazareth, brothers and sisters, this is the good news. No need to get angry because Jesus says he gives you power.
14:07 You can by the blood of Jesus, blood of Jesus. Run away from the shop where you’re buying the cigarette. Run away.
14:13 Don’t go to the friends who are supposed to be friends and they share the cigarette with you. There are certain steps, there are things how to overcome. There are many segments.
14:22 By God’s mercy, by Jesus Christ mercy have recorded, you must always overcome. Only overcome worlds will enter heaven. Now if you abide in my word, continually obeying my teachings, living in accordance with them, then you are truly my disciples.
14:35 And now that is John 8:31. Now I am reading John 8:32 by reading from Catholic edition. And you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.
14:44 Only disciples will know the truth and the truth will set them free. Those who are just a believer level at it, just a believer level. And then the Bible classes teach them this.
14:57 You come to Bible class to become a disciple. So when you believe, you’re not going to be a disciple. When you believe, you’re just a believer.
15:06 But the Bible doesn’t, the Scriptures don’t differentiate this. They don’t differentiate between believer and disciple because they simply believe they’re really not a Christian. To be a Christian, you need to be a disciple.
15:18 You need to be disciplined. Now 8:32 again, I’m reading, repeat again. John 8:32.
15:25 You will know the truth and you will know the truth and the truth will make you free. If I read 831 and 32 together, it’ll be like this. If you abide in my word, continually obeying my teachings and living in accordance with them, then you are truly my disciples.
15:40 And you will know the truth. And the truth will make you free. Now what happens now? Everywhere, advertising and all the truth will make you free.
15:47 The truth will make you free. But you will not know the truth of Christ. You will not know the truth of the living God.
15:51 You will not know the truth of the spiritual world. You will not know the truth of how the devil comes and attacks people and keeps them captive and all that. You will not know all the truth until you are a disciple.
16:05 You swore yourself. You vow. You take a commitment.
16:07 I will be a disciple of Jesus Christ. So today, brothers and sisters, I plead with you. Those who are saying, I believe, I believe, I believe.
16:16 It’s not good enough. You’ll continue suffering because only the disciples will know the truth. And you cast out the demonic forces.
16:22 You have power. Jesus Christ give you power. He gave you power to be children of God.
16:26 And you use the power. The power, first of all is to cast out the evil in Jesus name. The power in the name of Jesus Christ.
16:32 Command your heart and mind to obey, continually obeying the teachings of Jesus Christ. Today, brothers and sisters, is a wonderful day. If you keep listening to this and you begin to apply.
16:41 You see your life change. You see a life change. There will be righteousness, peace and joy.
16:45 There will be hope. Peace, brothers and sisters, today do this, do this. Search the scriptures yourself.
16:53 Meditate on them yourself. In Jesus name I pray. Amen.
