WEBVTT 00:00:16.240 --> 00:00:26.440 Please, if by any chance, times and times in 00:00:26.440 --> 00:00:31.579 your life, you still question God's calling upon 00:00:31.579 --> 00:00:33.340 your life. Please speak to any of the pastors. 00:00:34.079 --> 00:00:36.579 If sometimes you feel you are not called, if 00:00:36.579 --> 00:00:39.200 any of such thoughts comes to you, please speak 00:00:39.200 --> 00:00:41.780 to any of the pastors. They will guide you in 00:00:41.780 --> 00:00:46.320 divine understanding. They will guide you in 00:00:46.320 --> 00:00:54.159 divine understanding. If by any chance as well 00:00:54.159 --> 00:00:57.939 you have been trusting God to walk in the gifts 00:00:57.939 --> 00:01:03.420 of the Spirit, and doubts are arising or you 00:01:03.420 --> 00:01:08.099 are exercising and it looks like it's not functioning, 00:01:08.219 --> 00:01:11.540 please also talk to any of the pastors. I believe 00:01:11.540 --> 00:01:13.439 that there will be laying of hands for impactation 00:01:13.439 --> 00:01:16.939 much more so that we can be able to work in these 00:01:16.939 --> 00:01:23.540 things in abundance. Hallelujah. All right, so 00:01:23.540 --> 00:01:26.159 let's continue from where we stopped. Let's continue 00:01:26.159 --> 00:01:28.640 from where we stopped. Thank you, Jesus. Thank 00:01:28.640 --> 00:01:31.519 you, Holy Ghost. Thank you, Holy Ghost. Thank 00:01:31.519 --> 00:01:38.439 you, Holy Ghost. All right. John chapter 16, 00:01:38.819 --> 00:01:49.760 where we were before we started. John chapter 00:01:49.760 --> 00:02:02.689 16. I said that there are things we have accredited 00:02:02.689 --> 00:02:07.390 to the Holy Ghost, but it's not what the Holy 00:02:07.390 --> 00:02:15.050 Ghost do. Because we did not quite pay sufficient 00:02:15.050 --> 00:02:19.969 attention, right? We did not pay sufficient attention 00:02:19.969 --> 00:02:24.849 to what? To scriptures, right? We didn't pay 00:02:24.849 --> 00:02:27.659 sufficient attention to it. So now that we are 00:02:27.659 --> 00:02:30.560 paying sufficient attention, what does the scripture 00:02:30.560 --> 00:02:34.740 say about convicting the world of sin? Does the 00:02:34.740 --> 00:02:38.400 Holy Ghost convict? So that word convict is actually 00:02:38.400 --> 00:02:44.020 electro. Electro, actually. I'll spell it. E 00:02:44.020 --> 00:02:58.830 -L -E E -L -E G Eleg E -L -E -G C -H -O E -L 00:02:58.830 --> 00:03:05.830 -E -C -H -O. Thank you, Holy Ghost. Thank you, 00:03:05.870 --> 00:03:12.610 Jesus. E -L -E -C -H -O. And I've given us the 00:03:12.610 --> 00:03:16.889 different variations, right? That it means to 00:03:16.889 --> 00:03:23.770 shame. It means to find fault. It means to reproach. 00:03:24.879 --> 00:03:28.240 It means to make people feel sorry for themselves 00:03:28.240 --> 00:03:32.939 or feel sorry of themselves. I start again. Electro 00:03:32.939 --> 00:03:37.620 have variations of meaning, right? Electro have 00:03:37.620 --> 00:03:41.860 variations of meaning. And one is to feel ashamed 00:03:41.860 --> 00:03:47.419 of themselves, to find faults, to reproach, to 00:03:47.419 --> 00:03:50.759 make them feel sorry for themselves, right? So 00:03:50.759 --> 00:03:57.840 this is the meaning. Do you have this translation? 00:03:59.379 --> 00:04:02.960 Literal emphatic translation. Do you by any chance 00:04:02.960 --> 00:04:07.900 can pop that up? And contemporary English version. 00:04:08.099 --> 00:04:13.599 I want to see how these two versions give expression 00:04:13.599 --> 00:04:20.839 to or explain this verse. Maybe because it became 00:04:20.839 --> 00:04:24.459 very difficult actually. to find uh in type uh 00:04:24.459 --> 00:04:28.839 what you call translations that actually render 00:04:28.839 --> 00:04:33.399 it in a way that aligns with the communication 00:04:33.399 --> 00:04:37.660 of that verse so it's a literal emphatic translation 00:04:37.660 --> 00:04:40.980 means makes emphasis on the literal right a contemporary 00:04:40.980 --> 00:04:45.120 english version contemporary english we want 00:04:45.120 --> 00:04:47.660 to see if it pops that up so while you're looking 00:04:47.660 --> 00:04:53.819 for that i've given the meaning so It means the 00:04:53.819 --> 00:04:56.060 world, if we take this meaning, it means that 00:04:56.060 --> 00:04:59.879 the Holy Ghost will be making the world ashamed. 00:05:00.180 --> 00:05:02.860 The Holy Ghost will be showing the world its 00:05:02.860 --> 00:05:05.699 faults. The Holy Ghost will be making them feel 00:05:05.699 --> 00:05:12.620 sorry, which is incorrect on two bases, right? 00:05:12.699 --> 00:05:15.540 I want to show us two bases by which such interpretation 00:05:15.540 --> 00:05:21.149 would be incorrect. we head into what the correct 00:05:21.149 --> 00:05:25.810 interpretation is. So there are two bases upon 00:05:25.810 --> 00:05:30.069 which this is incorrect to say that the Holy 00:05:30.069 --> 00:05:33.970 Ghost will shame the world. So first, the first 00:05:33.970 --> 00:05:37.730 basis is just to look at the text like that first. 00:05:39.290 --> 00:05:44.029 Okay? Please, if you find that contemporary English 00:05:44.029 --> 00:05:47.509 version or literal emphatic translation, let 00:05:47.509 --> 00:05:49.560 me know if you find it. You couldn't find it? 00:05:49.939 --> 00:05:52.439 Okay, it's fine. It's okay. They are the ones 00:05:52.439 --> 00:05:54.759 that actually gave something very close, quite 00:05:54.759 --> 00:05:59.160 close to it. Right? So, yes, thank you for staying 00:05:59.160 --> 00:06:03.139 on this verse. And when he comes, he will convict 00:06:03.139 --> 00:06:06.019 the word of sin. So let's start. Of righteousness 00:06:06.019 --> 00:06:11.259 and judgment. Stop there. Just this is a contradiction 00:06:11.259 --> 00:06:15.480 in the sense that you can be convict of sin. 00:06:16.870 --> 00:06:19.490 Now, can you also be punished and shamed for 00:06:19.490 --> 00:06:23.649 righteousness? You cannot be shamed and punished 00:06:23.649 --> 00:06:27.089 for righteousness. It means two things. Something 00:06:27.089 --> 00:06:28.870 is happening there. They're punishing you for 00:06:28.870 --> 00:06:30.089 sin. You did the right thing. They're punishing 00:06:30.089 --> 00:06:33.129 you. You don't know what to do. Right? Of judgments. 00:06:36.410 --> 00:06:38.990 So you cannot be convicted of sin. And at the 00:06:38.990 --> 00:06:40.589 same time, you are convicted of righteousness. 00:06:41.769 --> 00:06:44.670 Right? So something must have to be explained. 00:06:44.769 --> 00:06:47.110 And of judgment. Now, go further. Let's see what 00:06:47.110 --> 00:06:49.550 I say. Concerning sin because they do not believe. 00:06:49.670 --> 00:06:53.550 Okay? Right? So, no, stay on that one. Concerning 00:06:53.550 --> 00:06:55.009 sin that they do not believe. Okay, if someone 00:06:55.009 --> 00:06:57.649 does not believe, we can take that. Now, go to 00:06:57.649 --> 00:06:59.730 the next one. Maybe because of unbelief, they 00:06:59.730 --> 00:07:01.649 will be shamed. Concerning righteousness because 00:07:01.649 --> 00:07:05.009 I go to the Father and you will see me no longer. 00:07:05.949 --> 00:07:09.670 To convict the word of righteousness. Right? 00:07:09.730 --> 00:07:11.329 To punish them because of righteousness because 00:07:11.329 --> 00:07:13.769 Jesus is going to the Father. He does not align. 00:07:14.970 --> 00:07:17.990 Right? So to punish them because of righteousness. 00:07:18.470 --> 00:07:20.110 In fact, the world does not have this information. 00:07:20.629 --> 00:07:22.569 You have to give this information to them because 00:07:22.569 --> 00:07:26.350 this was told to the disciples. Right? So it 00:07:26.350 --> 00:07:28.009 means that there's something more. The last one 00:07:28.009 --> 00:07:30.769 that talks about judgment. Okay. Concerning judgment 00:07:30.769 --> 00:07:33.769 because the ruler of the world is judged. Right? 00:07:35.250 --> 00:07:38.129 So it seems that there's a little bit of contradiction 00:07:38.129 --> 00:07:40.709 here. So on the first basis is that the statement 00:07:40.709 --> 00:07:44.430 itself does not align. to use shaming, the Holy 00:07:44.430 --> 00:07:46.629 Ghost shaming, or to use shame, or to use punish, 00:07:46.889 --> 00:07:50.009 right? To punish people because another person 00:07:50.009 --> 00:07:52.069 is punished, right? So concerning judgment, you 00:07:52.069 --> 00:07:54.170 want to punish them because it's like you want 00:07:54.170 --> 00:07:56.310 to punish the world because the God of the world 00:07:56.310 --> 00:07:58.990 is punished. So you want to punish the world 00:07:58.990 --> 00:08:01.629 alone. You want to shame the world. So it's not 00:08:01.629 --> 00:08:04.509 something that aligns. Now, that's on the first 00:08:04.509 --> 00:08:08.350 basis. Now, the second basis is that it contradicts 00:08:08.350 --> 00:08:13.759 the character of the Spirit. From Genesis to 00:08:13.759 --> 00:08:18.339 Revelation, this statement contradicts the character 00:08:18.339 --> 00:08:23.600 of the Spirit. And there has been no other part 00:08:23.600 --> 00:08:27.500 of the Scripture that gives such a pattern that 00:08:27.500 --> 00:08:33.799 the Holy Spirit punishes. Okay? So it contradicts 00:08:33.799 --> 00:08:37.279 the character of God. Contradicts the character 00:08:37.279 --> 00:08:44.100 of God. So where do we see The character of God. 00:08:44.860 --> 00:08:49.279 John 3, 16 and 17. Let's see. Especially 17. 00:08:52.379 --> 00:08:55.500 For God so loved the world that he gave his only 00:08:55.500 --> 00:08:58.860 begotten son, his only son, that whosoever believes 00:08:58.860 --> 00:09:02.980 in him should not perish, but have what? Eternal 00:09:02.980 --> 00:09:07.399 life. Right? Verse 17. What did he say? Everybody, 00:09:07.500 --> 00:09:19.840 can we read together? So God did not send his 00:09:19.840 --> 00:09:24.980 son to earth to condemn the world. So can we 00:09:24.980 --> 00:09:28.379 say shaming is condemnation? Yes. Convicting 00:09:28.379 --> 00:09:31.460 someone is condemnation? Yes. Can we say that? 00:09:31.539 --> 00:09:34.620 Yes. Finding reproach, making them feel sorry 00:09:34.620 --> 00:09:37.639 for themselves is condemnation? Yes. So here, 00:09:37.759 --> 00:09:45.279 foundationally, it does not align. James 1 verse 00:09:45.279 --> 00:09:50.340 5. James 1 verse 5. I think we probably read 00:09:50.340 --> 00:09:52.879 that. James 1 verse 5. Quickly, please. If anyone 00:09:52.879 --> 00:09:57.279 of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God. Who gives 00:09:57.279 --> 00:10:01.120 generously to all without what? Reproach. That's 00:10:01.120 --> 00:10:05.919 another word for that convict. Reproach. And 00:10:05.919 --> 00:10:08.299 it will be given to him. Say, God gives generously 00:10:08.299 --> 00:10:12.919 to all without reproach. Right? Finding faults. 00:10:13.519 --> 00:10:15.580 Pastor told us in most of our teachings, you 00:10:15.580 --> 00:10:18.539 find fault is not something, God does not find 00:10:18.539 --> 00:10:24.899 fault in man. He doesn't find fault. Right? All 00:10:24.899 --> 00:10:32.779 right. That's all for that. John 5, 45. John 00:10:32.779 --> 00:10:41.539 5, 45. I said, do you think? that I will accuse 00:10:41.539 --> 00:10:44.059 you to the father. Do not think rather, do not 00:10:44.059 --> 00:10:46.899 think that I will accuse you to the father. There 00:10:46.899 --> 00:10:50.320 is one who accuses, even Moses, on whom you've 00:10:50.320 --> 00:10:54.360 set your hope. Next. For if you believe Moses, 00:10:54.500 --> 00:11:00.700 you believe me. For he wrote of me, right? He 00:11:00.700 --> 00:11:03.940 wrote of me. So he's saying that I do not, Christ 00:11:03.940 --> 00:11:07.820 is saying, I'm not coming to accuse you. Right? 00:11:07.840 --> 00:11:11.059 I'm not coming to accuse. Accusation is found 00:11:11.059 --> 00:11:14.399 when a man holds the law and does not see Christ. 00:11:15.519 --> 00:11:20.659 That is when a man is accused. So it's in their 00:11:20.659 --> 00:11:29.299 unbelief. But God does not accuse men. Also, 00:11:29.320 --> 00:11:34.559 again, if you read John 15. From that verse 18, 00:11:34.720 --> 00:11:37.419 and you read it until where it says convicts 00:11:37.419 --> 00:11:42.840 the world, right? You will see that it looks 00:11:42.840 --> 00:11:47.720 like a revenge. Oh, so when the world has dealt 00:11:47.720 --> 00:11:50.740 with the believers, then the Holy Spirit will 00:11:50.740 --> 00:11:54.539 now punish them, shame them, right? Since the 00:11:54.539 --> 00:11:58.840 believer cannot do anything, hands over the world 00:11:58.840 --> 00:12:02.549 to the Holy Spirit. Revenge is not a character 00:12:02.549 --> 00:12:05.370 of God, if that's another thing you want to check. 00:12:05.629 --> 00:12:09.929 It's not a character of God, right? But God takes 00:12:09.929 --> 00:12:13.730 care, right? For example, we've seen that scripture 00:12:13.730 --> 00:12:18.110 that says that he visits the sins of the fathers, 00:12:18.169 --> 00:12:21.070 right? From one generation to another. And visiting 00:12:21.070 --> 00:12:23.929 the sins, we said is that God is taking care 00:12:23.929 --> 00:12:28.870 of the issue of sin. Hold on to that one, right? 00:12:29.399 --> 00:12:31.080 Because that's the foundation that we should 00:12:31.080 --> 00:12:34.639 have. So it means that God does not visit generation 00:12:34.639 --> 00:12:38.080 to generation of sin, but rather from one generation 00:12:38.080 --> 00:12:41.919 to another, forgiveness is made available. That's 00:12:41.919 --> 00:12:47.320 what God does. If you use that and bring it here, 00:12:47.700 --> 00:12:51.100 you will get it, the right interpretation. So 00:12:51.100 --> 00:12:53.700 let's bring it. Let's bring this foundation and 00:12:53.700 --> 00:12:57.009 just use it. on that basis to just check. So 00:12:57.009 --> 00:13:00.289 he said he would convict the world of sin. First 00:13:00.289 --> 00:13:05.570 of all, we have to change the word convict. I'm 00:13:05.570 --> 00:13:07.429 going to show you why. I'm going to show you 00:13:07.429 --> 00:13:11.490 why. It's because convict is elegatio, right? 00:13:11.909 --> 00:13:16.549 There is a correct use or the right use of the 00:13:16.549 --> 00:13:18.629 word or the right translation of the word in 00:13:18.629 --> 00:13:26.330 2 Timothy 3 .16. 2 Timothy 3 .16. So 2 Timothy 00:13:26.330 --> 00:13:28.990 3 .16. He said, all scriptures is breathed out 00:13:28.990 --> 00:13:32.269 by God and profitable for words. It's profitable 00:13:32.269 --> 00:13:38.750 for words and for reproof, right? Reproof is 00:13:38.750 --> 00:13:42.490 elegachos. You just add S. That's the difference. 00:13:43.549 --> 00:13:48.289 So the one that says convict is elegacho. This 00:13:48.289 --> 00:13:51.000 one is S. How can the difference be two? And 00:13:51.000 --> 00:13:55.120 this one means to provide sufficient evidence 00:13:55.120 --> 00:14:00.620 pertaining a matter. It is not to shame. So the 00:14:00.620 --> 00:14:05.240 doctrine is not for shaming people. Right? So 00:14:05.240 --> 00:14:07.799 reproof here is to provide sufficient evidence. 00:14:07.980 --> 00:14:12.279 So it means that the choice of words of the translators 00:14:12.279 --> 00:14:14.879 must have been influenced by probably, you know, 00:14:14.879 --> 00:14:16.299 like I said, they read the context and they gave 00:14:16.299 --> 00:14:18.370 an interpretation to the context. themselves. 00:14:18.610 --> 00:14:22.110 So, elegatio and elegatios, what is the difference? 00:14:22.230 --> 00:14:24.409 It's the same word, right? The same word. So, 00:14:24.509 --> 00:14:27.389 here, it says to give evidence. So, from here 00:14:27.389 --> 00:14:29.710 now, we now know that that elegatio means to 00:14:29.710 --> 00:14:33.690 give sufficient evidence of something. Right? 00:14:34.690 --> 00:14:37.450 Can we carry this reproof and put it there and 00:14:37.450 --> 00:14:41.129 say, reproof the word of sin, elegatios? Yes. 00:14:41.429 --> 00:14:46.029 Right? So, what would that mean? What would that 00:14:46.029 --> 00:14:49.450 mean? What would to reprove the word? Now we've 00:14:49.450 --> 00:14:52.570 adjusted it to reprove, right? Some scriptures 00:14:52.570 --> 00:14:57.669 use convince. Does anybody's version use convince 00:14:57.669 --> 00:15:01.250 here instead of convict, right? Some people use 00:15:01.250 --> 00:15:04.509 convince. So we can bring in convince too. We 00:15:04.509 --> 00:15:07.990 can bring in reprove too, right? Because both 00:15:07.990 --> 00:15:11.029 of them would reflect to give sufficient evidence 00:15:11.029 --> 00:15:15.049 about the matter. Okay? So to give sufficient 00:15:15.049 --> 00:15:17.590 evidence about a matter. So you should write 00:15:17.590 --> 00:15:19.769 it down. Provide sufficient evidence regarding 00:15:19.769 --> 00:15:26.529 a matter. To give enormous evidence of the core 00:15:26.529 --> 00:15:33.509 of the matter. To give enormous evidence of the 00:15:33.509 --> 00:15:35.610 core of the matter. Another one to add to it 00:15:35.610 --> 00:15:39.730 is by that to establish the truth of the matter. 00:15:44.459 --> 00:15:51.039 To establish the truth of the matter. So let's 00:15:51.039 --> 00:15:54.980 go back to John 16. In this John 16, now we'll 00:15:54.980 --> 00:15:58.519 now see. Let's now start beginning to work on 00:15:58.519 --> 00:16:00.580 it. So nevertheless, I tell you the truth. It's 00:16:00.580 --> 00:16:02.340 the advantage that I go. If I do not go, the 00:16:02.340 --> 00:16:04.980 helper will not come. But I will send you. But 00:16:04.980 --> 00:16:07.899 if I go, I will send him to you. Verse 8. And 00:16:07.899 --> 00:16:11.720 when he comes, he will reprove the world concerning 00:16:11.720 --> 00:16:16.870 sin. It will reprove. It will convince the world 00:16:16.870 --> 00:16:21.730 concerning sin. Now, when an evidence is given, 00:16:21.870 --> 00:16:25.809 right? When a doctrine is taught, let me give 00:16:25.809 --> 00:16:27.809 you an example. When we come here and we sit 00:16:27.809 --> 00:16:30.070 down, we teach doctrine, we explain the scripture. 00:16:30.629 --> 00:16:35.330 What is the essence of it? It's for you to believe, 00:16:35.549 --> 00:16:39.519 right? is for you to believe. When a doctrine 00:16:39.519 --> 00:16:42.019 is taught and explained and explained. For example, 00:16:42.019 --> 00:16:43.240 we're going to teach on speaking in tongues. 00:16:43.340 --> 00:16:45.179 It's for you to believe it so that you don't 00:16:45.179 --> 00:16:47.100 doubt it. Right? When we talk about the things 00:16:47.100 --> 00:16:49.080 of the spirit, we teach it, teach it. So, it's 00:16:49.080 --> 00:16:50.600 for you to believe it so that you don't doubt 00:16:50.600 --> 00:16:55.419 it. Good. So, now, we can say that to give evidence 00:16:55.419 --> 00:16:59.700 concerning sin. So, the point is, does it mean 00:16:59.700 --> 00:17:05.500 that it would explain sin to them? No. That's 00:17:05.500 --> 00:17:08.099 not what it means. to give evidence concerning 00:17:08.099 --> 00:17:12.539 sin. The question is, what will be the truth 00:17:12.539 --> 00:17:17.339 about sin when Jesus Christ resurrects? What 00:17:17.339 --> 00:17:19.420 will be the truth about the sin when Jesus Christ 00:17:19.420 --> 00:17:24.980 resurrects? That is, has been dealt with. Do 00:17:24.980 --> 00:17:29.059 you get? So, the truth about sin when Jesus is 00:17:29.059 --> 00:17:33.119 raised will be that sin has been dealt with. 00:17:33.160 --> 00:17:34.880 That is the established matter at resurrection. 00:17:36.680 --> 00:17:40.240 Right? So the established matter that the Holy 00:17:40.240 --> 00:17:44.680 Spirit will give sufficient evidence to the world 00:17:44.680 --> 00:17:51.539 about is that he will show them that sin has 00:17:51.539 --> 00:17:57.480 been dealt with on the basis of Christ's death. 00:17:58.000 --> 00:17:59.740 and resurrection. Don't forget the saying, I 00:17:59.740 --> 00:18:02.940 will go, I will go, I will go. You must add that 00:18:02.940 --> 00:18:05.380 I will go to the explanation of this thing that 00:18:05.380 --> 00:18:09.460 is happening. So when I go and I come to you, 00:18:09.480 --> 00:18:13.299 means I'm raised, right? The world will know 00:18:13.299 --> 00:18:19.279 that I have given them victory over sin. They 00:18:19.279 --> 00:18:23.559 just need to believe. Right? So the established 00:18:23.559 --> 00:18:27.299 truth about sin at the resurrection is that It's 00:18:27.299 --> 00:18:32.039 solved. It's solved. Right? And give them evidence 00:18:32.039 --> 00:18:35.599 concerning righteousness that they can receive 00:18:35.599 --> 00:18:39.799 it. So the Holy Spirit does not convict the world 00:18:39.799 --> 00:18:44.000 of sin, convict, but convince them of what Christ 00:18:44.000 --> 00:18:47.920 has done to sin. So the Holy Spirit will give 00:18:47.920 --> 00:18:50.759 evidence, sufficient evidence pertaining all 00:18:50.759 --> 00:18:55.349 Christ has done to sin. How he has made righteousness 00:18:55.349 --> 00:18:59.289 available so that they can believe. Therefore, 00:18:59.349 --> 00:19:01.829 the convincing of the word, the convince of the 00:19:01.829 --> 00:19:05.130 word of what Jesus did to sin, right? Is the 00:19:05.130 --> 00:19:12.630 appropriate explanation of the space. So the 00:19:12.630 --> 00:19:14.750 Holy Spirit convinced them, explains to them. 00:19:15.029 --> 00:19:17.710 What does he explain? He explains, what would 00:19:17.710 --> 00:19:19.109 the Holy Spirit explain? So you need to write 00:19:19.109 --> 00:19:21.410 this, add this to it. That the Holy Spirit will 00:19:21.410 --> 00:19:24.079 explain the suffering. and the glory of Christ. 00:19:24.180 --> 00:19:25.920 Please write it, right? The Holy Spirit will 00:19:25.920 --> 00:19:28.839 explain the suffering and the glory of Christ. 00:19:29.000 --> 00:19:33.720 The suffering and the glory of Christ. The Holy 00:19:33.720 --> 00:19:36.420 Spirit will explain the suffering and the glory. 00:19:36.519 --> 00:19:39.759 You know why? Because the world could not comprehend 00:19:39.759 --> 00:19:45.339 that as a path to salvation. They couldn't imagine 00:19:45.339 --> 00:19:48.680 that it is the death and resurrection of Christ. 00:19:49.700 --> 00:19:52.839 that will bring eternal life. At that point, 00:19:52.900 --> 00:19:55.640 it's only the Spirit that reveals these things, 00:19:55.920 --> 00:19:58.400 right? The Holy Spirit will reveal it, will explain 00:19:58.400 --> 00:20:02.799 it to them. Good. So, he said, I go to my father 00:20:02.799 --> 00:20:06.980 concerning all of this. Now, how does the Holy 00:20:06.980 --> 00:20:10.299 Spirit do this? How does the Holy Spirit do this? 00:20:10.400 --> 00:20:14.500 Right? To an unbeliever, how does the Holy Spirit 00:20:14.500 --> 00:20:18.519 convince them of what Christ has done? The Holy 00:20:18.519 --> 00:20:22.349 Spirit, Convince the world through the preaching 00:20:22.349 --> 00:20:27.589 of the believer. Don't forget chapter 15, verse 00:20:27.589 --> 00:20:34.210 26 and 27. You will witness after the Spirit 00:20:34.210 --> 00:20:37.710 has witnessed unto you. So it means that the 00:20:37.710 --> 00:20:39.049 Spirit witnesses to the apostle, the apostle 00:20:39.049 --> 00:20:43.529 witnesses to others, right? That is how the Spirit 00:20:43.529 --> 00:20:46.349 witnesses to others. So the Spirit witnesses 00:20:46.349 --> 00:20:51.230 to others through... Our witnessing, right? The 00:20:51.230 --> 00:20:52.829 spirit witnesses to others through our witness. 00:20:52.910 --> 00:20:56.430 So it conveys the word of sin, right? Regarding 00:20:56.430 --> 00:21:04.369 sin by our preaching, by our preaching. Glory 00:21:04.369 --> 00:21:07.130 to God. So the witnessing of Christ is actually 00:21:07.130 --> 00:21:11.009 what the spirit would do. The witnessing of Christ 00:21:11.009 --> 00:21:15.259 is what the spirit would do. Hallelujah. So we 00:21:15.259 --> 00:21:18.660 have been able to go through that and all of 00:21:18.660 --> 00:21:23.480 that. Now, how do we see this in the entire picture 00:21:23.480 --> 00:21:27.200 of the Bible? Is that from Genesis as we check 00:21:27.200 --> 00:21:31.240 across, right? From Genesis as we check across, 00:21:31.299 --> 00:21:35.680 we see that it has been about passing this message 00:21:35.680 --> 00:21:38.099 from generation to generation until the fulfillment 00:21:38.099 --> 00:21:41.400 of it. And now that is fulfilled, we would carry 00:21:41.400 --> 00:21:44.829 on. So what is God doing on earth today? What 00:21:44.829 --> 00:21:47.730 is God doing on earth today? He's changing men 00:21:47.730 --> 00:21:52.009 through me and you. The Spirit is changing lives 00:21:52.009 --> 00:21:54.109 through myself and you. When we go to preach, 00:21:54.250 --> 00:21:57.250 when we go to witness, right? And it's not just, 00:21:57.309 --> 00:22:01.009 he said, signs and wonders will follow our witnessing. 00:22:01.819 --> 00:22:04.660 So all of that is what the Spirit is doing on 00:22:04.660 --> 00:22:07.039 it, walking through us. Hallelujah. All right, 00:22:07.039 --> 00:22:10.039 let's go to 1 Corinthians now, teaching 1 Corinthians 00:22:10.039 --> 00:22:14.619 12, to go into the gift of the Spirit, right? 00:22:14.880 --> 00:22:28.220 The gift of the Spirit, much more. Just to highlight 00:22:28.220 --> 00:22:30.359 something, because I know someone is thinking, 00:22:31.339 --> 00:22:35.640 What about when I sin and something is telling 00:22:35.640 --> 00:22:40.900 me that what I've done is bad. I've done something 00:22:40.900 --> 00:22:45.660 very terrible. I don't feel good about it. What 00:22:45.660 --> 00:22:49.299 is speaking? Is that not the Holy Spirit? Right? 00:22:49.700 --> 00:22:53.359 Is that a question in someone's mind? Is that 00:22:53.359 --> 00:22:55.599 a question? Do you feel that way when maybe you 00:22:55.599 --> 00:22:57.660 do something wrong? Do you feel like, and you 00:22:57.660 --> 00:23:04.039 feel very remorse? Right? I'm looking for Paul's 00:23:04.039 --> 00:23:10.359 writing. What works and what functions in that 00:23:10.359 --> 00:23:15.859 time, right, is your conscience. Paul will say, 00:23:15.900 --> 00:23:18.900 if our conscience judges, he said, God is what 00:23:18.900 --> 00:23:23.220 is greater than our conscience, right? It means 00:23:23.220 --> 00:23:26.650 the Spirit is greater. Than your conscience. 00:23:27.009 --> 00:23:30.049 So. When you are judged by your conscience. You 00:23:30.049 --> 00:23:31.849 should go back to the spirit. To know what is 00:23:31.849 --> 00:23:34.869 yours. In Christ. I just feel like you address 00:23:34.869 --> 00:23:39.170 that. Okay. You will say. Paul will say. If our 00:23:39.170 --> 00:23:41.910 conscience judges. Right. God is greater than 00:23:41.910 --> 00:23:44.789 our conscience. Right. So when you feel. When 00:23:44.789 --> 00:23:46.650 you feel sorry. Right. By your conscience. By 00:23:46.650 --> 00:23:49.089 your morality. By everything. Your knowledge 00:23:49.089 --> 00:23:50.690 is functioning. To tell you what you have done 00:23:50.690 --> 00:23:55.150 is bad. When you come to the spirit. Do you know 00:23:55.150 --> 00:23:57.349 what is yours in spirit? Forgiveness, redemption 00:23:57.349 --> 00:24:04.509 by his blood, right? Grace to walk in righteousness. 00:24:05.930 --> 00:24:09.150 So it's not, you know, it's not like the Holy 00:24:09.150 --> 00:24:10.710 Spirit is the one convincing you. It's because 00:24:10.710 --> 00:24:13.150 all the body of knowledge you have settled in 00:24:13.150 --> 00:24:15.430 your mind tells you you have done something wrong. 00:24:15.869 --> 00:24:18.410 You judge it. And when you come to the Spirit, 00:24:18.470 --> 00:24:20.890 God is greater than all. You have to go in God, 00:24:20.990 --> 00:24:24.980 in the Spirit, and you grow. Otherwise, that's 00:24:24.980 --> 00:24:26.700 why, you know why people find it hard to forgive 00:24:26.700 --> 00:24:29.140 themselves? You know, they do something very 00:24:29.140 --> 00:24:30.480 terrible and they're like, I can't forgive myself. 00:24:31.599 --> 00:24:35.160 I'm like, hey, does forgiveness even come from 00:24:35.160 --> 00:24:38.700 me in the first place? You know, people do that 00:24:38.700 --> 00:24:41.259 and you tell them, forget, you are angry. They 00:24:41.259 --> 00:24:44.660 just feel down. It's because they don't know 00:24:44.660 --> 00:24:46.819 the place of God. They don't know the place of 00:24:46.819 --> 00:24:50.240 the Spirit. Because it's in the Spirit. Romans 00:24:50.240 --> 00:24:54.349 8, there is what? There is now no condemnation 00:24:54.349 --> 00:24:57.990 to them who are in what? Christ. There is now 00:24:57.990 --> 00:25:02.750 no condemnation. You are in Christ. So that is 00:25:02.750 --> 00:25:05.690 what you have to tell yourself. Come back to 00:25:05.690 --> 00:25:10.269 what the Spirit says about you. Then your consciousness 00:25:10.269 --> 00:25:14.890 would be healed. Did I say that? Yes. Your consciousness 00:25:14.890 --> 00:25:17.509 would be healed. Your conscience would be healed. 00:25:18.910 --> 00:25:21.839 Right? your conscience will be healed. There 00:25:21.839 --> 00:25:27.440 is healing. There is healing. Alright, so 1 Corinthians 00:25:27.440 --> 00:25:32.289 12, I think that's where we are going. 1 Corinthians 00:25:32.289 --> 00:25:35.210 12. So to introduce, right, the things of the 00:25:35.210 --> 00:25:37.390 Spirit. Now concerning spirituals, brothers, 00:25:37.490 --> 00:25:40.490 I do not want you to be uninformed. You know 00:25:40.490 --> 00:25:43.309 that when you were pagans, we were led astray 00:25:43.309 --> 00:25:46.230 to mute idols. However, you were led. Therefore, 00:25:46.329 --> 00:25:49.549 I want you to understand. So can you shout, I 00:25:49.549 --> 00:25:53.470 want you to understand. I want you to understand. 00:25:54.450 --> 00:25:58.069 Say, I receive understanding. I receive understanding. 00:25:59.069 --> 00:26:01.349 So Paul wants us to understand things concerning 00:26:01.349 --> 00:26:04.069 spirituals. He doesn't want us to be ignorant. 00:26:04.289 --> 00:26:07.750 So we have to check one after the other. So again, 00:26:07.890 --> 00:26:12.230 the word spirituals is nomaticos, right? Nomaticos, 00:26:12.230 --> 00:26:15.289 and we had that before. And we can divide it. 00:26:17.130 --> 00:26:21.690 We can divide it into two, right? We can divide 00:26:21.690 --> 00:26:25.230 it into two. The pneuma there means spirits. 00:26:25.950 --> 00:26:29.730 And the tiko there means the things. Means things. 00:26:30.609 --> 00:26:35.349 Right? Means things. Concerning spiritual. So, 00:26:35.369 --> 00:26:39.349 pneuma means spirit. The tiko there implies the 00:26:39.349 --> 00:26:43.309 things. And it reflects in different ways. Okay? 00:26:43.410 --> 00:26:48.009 So, first, things of the spirit. Right? The things 00:26:48.009 --> 00:26:52.569 of the spirit. Right? The things of the spirit. 00:26:53.009 --> 00:26:58.210 Things in the spirit. of the Spirit, things in 00:26:58.210 --> 00:27:05.589 the Spirit, and things by the Spirit. Right? 00:27:07.269 --> 00:27:15.029 Things by the Spirit. So, demonstration is by 00:27:15.029 --> 00:27:17.569 the Spirit. I come to you not in the eloquence 00:27:17.569 --> 00:27:20.970 of war, that is by the Spirit. Right? What we 00:27:20.970 --> 00:27:23.930 are doing here, we are doing it in the Spirit. 00:27:24.029 --> 00:27:28.500 This conference is In the spirit. Right? We are 00:27:28.500 --> 00:27:31.839 in the spirit of God. The scriptures are of the 00:27:31.839 --> 00:27:34.400 spirit of God. That is why the law is spiritual. 00:27:34.640 --> 00:27:37.640 It's of the spirit. It is not away from the, 00:27:37.700 --> 00:27:40.440 it's not something anti -spirit. The law is of 00:27:40.440 --> 00:27:42.740 the spirit. It's given by the spirit. Scriptures 00:27:42.740 --> 00:27:44.839 is of the spirit. Right? They are inspired by 00:27:44.839 --> 00:27:47.819 the spirit of God. Right? So, those are the, 00:27:47.880 --> 00:27:50.039 he's talking about the things of the spirit, 00:27:50.140 --> 00:27:54.490 in the spirit and by the spirit. Right? Things 00:27:54.490 --> 00:27:58.470 in the spirit and by the spirit. So those are 00:27:58.470 --> 00:28:00.589 the things we're going to discuss. Now let's 00:28:00.589 --> 00:28:04.329 go to a little bit to backtrack. Acts chapter 00:28:04.329 --> 00:28:11.309 2 verse 38. Acts chapter 2 verse 38. Acts chapter 00:28:11.309 --> 00:28:15.329 2 verse 38. And Peter said to them, repent and 00:28:15.329 --> 00:28:19.049 what? Be baptized. Every one of you in the name 00:28:19.049 --> 00:28:21.309 of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins 00:28:21.309 --> 00:28:27.279 and you will receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. 00:28:27.440 --> 00:28:31.140 You receive what? The gift of the Holy Ghost. 00:28:31.359 --> 00:28:35.839 Now, in this place, it's not talking about gift 00:28:35.839 --> 00:28:38.420 of the Spirit. Okay? So be careful when you see 00:28:38.420 --> 00:28:40.799 gifts, gifts here and there, gifts, you know, 00:28:40.819 --> 00:28:44.819 you have to read it very well. Right? Gift here 00:28:44.819 --> 00:28:51.509 means that the Holy Spirit Right? It refers to 00:28:51.509 --> 00:28:54.230 the Holy Spirit, the gift cells, the nature of 00:28:54.230 --> 00:28:59.009 the gift, which is to give freely. Like freely 00:28:59.009 --> 00:29:02.470 given. Let me put it that way. It refers to the 00:29:02.470 --> 00:29:06.549 Spirit is freely given. So, receive the gift, 00:29:06.750 --> 00:29:12.049 the Holy Spirit. So, remove off. Right? Maybe 00:29:12.049 --> 00:29:14.730 some of the off, off, off are causing so many 00:29:14.730 --> 00:29:17.049 challenges. Actually, the off is not there. You 00:29:17.049 --> 00:29:19.960 can remove the off. So receive the gift, the 00:29:19.960 --> 00:29:26.180 what? The Holy Spirit. So the Holy Spirit is 00:29:26.180 --> 00:29:28.480 given, is nature of it, right? Is given freely. 00:29:29.200 --> 00:29:32.940 The gift there, right, is the word doron, D -O 00:29:32.940 --> 00:29:38.319 -R, right? Doron. Which means to be offered freely, 00:29:38.519 --> 00:29:41.259 to be given freely. The gift there is doron, 00:29:41.339 --> 00:29:44.059 which means to be offered freely, to be given 00:29:44.059 --> 00:29:49.130 freely. So the Holy Spirit is the gift. The gift 00:29:49.130 --> 00:29:51.670 is the Holy Spirit, right? The Holy Spirit is 00:29:51.670 --> 00:30:00.490 the gift and the gift is the Holy Spirit. All 00:30:00.490 --> 00:30:03.630 right. Still under scripture, still under scripture. 00:30:08.549 --> 00:30:11.369 So the giving of the Holy Spirit here is salvation 00:30:11.369 --> 00:30:13.710 to them. So Peter just finished preaching and 00:30:13.710 --> 00:30:15.380 they were... They were in unbelief. I said, okay, 00:30:15.400 --> 00:30:17.299 what can we do to be saved? He said, believe, 00:30:17.579 --> 00:30:19.619 right? And you will receive the Holy Spirit. 00:30:19.619 --> 00:30:22.299 So, it's not believe and receive. It's actually, 00:30:22.400 --> 00:30:24.140 you will receive the Holy Spirit if you believe 00:30:24.140 --> 00:30:26.119 what I've said. And that's salvation for them. 00:30:26.519 --> 00:30:29.779 Now, the word receive there, the word receive 00:30:29.779 --> 00:30:33.740 is the Greek word, is the Greek word lambano. 00:30:33.819 --> 00:30:45.160 L -A -M -B -A -N -O. Lambano. Lambano, which 00:30:45.160 --> 00:30:48.740 means to take hold of what is provided. So something 00:30:48.740 --> 00:30:54.980 is provided freely to take hold of it is lambano. 00:31:06.319 --> 00:31:11.109 Right, you will see it used in Acts. Luke 24, 00:31:11.349 --> 00:31:16.910 47, right? Luke 24, 47. I think that should be 00:31:16.910 --> 00:31:22.150 it. We can confirm that. All right. So Peter 00:31:22.150 --> 00:31:25.190 is teaching them, right? That the promise of 00:31:25.190 --> 00:31:28.890 the father has been given. Therefore, they need 00:31:28.890 --> 00:31:31.390 to receive it. They need to take hold of it by 00:31:31.390 --> 00:31:34.589 believing, right? They need to take hold of it 00:31:34.589 --> 00:31:37.470 by believing. And it's free. So they needed not 00:31:37.470 --> 00:31:42.509 to do. anything than to receive because it's 00:31:42.509 --> 00:31:46.690 free, right? It's a free gift. They needed not 00:31:46.690 --> 00:31:53.609 to do anything than to receive. So let's go back 00:31:53.609 --> 00:31:55.630 to 1 Corinthians 2 and continue on the journey. 00:31:55.710 --> 00:31:57.789 Just wanted to clarify that and we'll proceed. 00:31:58.470 --> 00:32:01.210 1 Corinthians 2. Now the next word we should 00:32:01.210 --> 00:32:07.670 examine is actually the word ignorant. Right? 00:32:07.730 --> 00:32:10.750 It's the word ignorant. It's the word ignorant. 00:32:12.529 --> 00:32:15.069 Why we are examining it is because we need to 00:32:15.069 --> 00:32:19.730 know you can identify your state as we are proceeding. 00:32:20.210 --> 00:32:22.950 Right? You can identify where you are about your 00:32:22.950 --> 00:32:25.069 belief, about the things of the spirit. Okay? 00:32:25.130 --> 00:32:26.950 That's what this session, this particular session 00:32:26.950 --> 00:32:30.410 is about. I want you as I proceed in explaining 00:32:30.410 --> 00:32:33.710 step by step the things, identify where you are 00:32:33.710 --> 00:32:36.089 and when the word of God comes to correct it, 00:32:36.460 --> 00:32:39.079 You receive what? The correction, right? You 00:32:39.079 --> 00:32:41.960 receive the understanding. You receive the evidence, 00:32:42.299 --> 00:32:46.019 right? You receive the evidence. So this one 00:32:46.019 --> 00:32:49.559 says ignorance. The word is A -G -N -O -E -O. 00:32:50.259 --> 00:32:54.039 A -G -N -O -E -O. Which is to be ignorant means, 00:32:54.359 --> 00:32:59.500 right? Ignorant means to refuse to recognize 00:32:59.500 --> 00:33:07.380 actually. To see, but refuse to recognize. So, 00:33:07.420 --> 00:33:10.059 to refuse to recognize things pertaining to the 00:33:10.059 --> 00:33:12.039 things of the Spirit. So, a believer can be saved 00:33:12.039 --> 00:33:16.880 and refuse to recognize the things pertaining 00:33:16.880 --> 00:33:22.579 to the Spirit. My scripture is uninformed there, 00:33:22.579 --> 00:33:26.619 but I think ignorance stays. So, you can be a 00:33:26.619 --> 00:33:28.559 believer and you are ignorant. You don't know 00:33:28.559 --> 00:33:34.119 it. You even see it. But you say, no, it does 00:33:34.119 --> 00:33:37.759 not exist. Right? You say, no, these things don't 00:33:37.759 --> 00:33:39.519 exist. So that is ignorance. So he's telling 00:33:39.519 --> 00:33:42.539 them, don't be ignorant about these things. Of 00:33:42.539 --> 00:33:46.019 course, this church, their issue is not even 00:33:46.019 --> 00:33:49.140 not knowing because they came out superb in all 00:33:49.140 --> 00:33:51.779 gifts, right? But they had a problem with regards 00:33:51.779 --> 00:33:54.640 to how the conduct of the Spirit. So the word 00:33:54.640 --> 00:33:56.799 is to be ignorant. So a believer can be. So you 00:33:56.799 --> 00:33:59.859 need to be cautious to take yourself away from 00:33:59.859 --> 00:34:03.380 that. A believer endured by the Spirit should 00:34:03.380 --> 00:34:05.359 not be ignorant of the things of the Spirit. 00:34:05.849 --> 00:34:08.550 Right? A believer indwelled by the Spirit should 00:34:08.550 --> 00:34:11.889 not be ignorant on the things of the Spirit. 00:34:13.010 --> 00:34:15.429 Should not be ignorant on the things of the Spirit. 00:34:15.650 --> 00:34:17.469 And that's what we are going through this teaching. 00:34:17.590 --> 00:34:21.090 Now, it's a therefore, verse 3. Therefore, I 00:34:21.090 --> 00:34:23.269 want you to understand that no one speaking in 00:34:23.269 --> 00:34:25.889 the Spirit of God says Jesus is our cause and 00:34:25.889 --> 00:34:29.530 no one says Jesus is Lord except in the Spirit. 00:34:29.809 --> 00:34:32.010 Right? In the Holy Spirit. So here is laying 00:34:32.010 --> 00:34:38.349 a foundation that first, Know that when somebody 00:34:38.349 --> 00:34:41.949 says Christ Jesus is the Lord, it means the person 00:34:41.949 --> 00:34:45.869 has believed. So believing comes. Then the gifts. 00:34:46.489 --> 00:34:49.329 Believing. So just establish believing. Jesus 00:34:49.329 --> 00:34:52.329 is Lord. You can add the scriptures here. Romans 00:34:52.329 --> 00:34:56.510 10. I don't know if I'm moving too fast. Romans 00:34:56.510 --> 00:35:02.110 10. You can add Romans 10 to that. Romans 10. 00:35:04.429 --> 00:35:08.530 Let's see. Romans 10 from verse 9 and 10. You 00:35:08.530 --> 00:35:11.469 can add Romans 10 verse 9 and 10 there. You can 00:35:11.469 --> 00:35:16.750 put Philippians 2. Of course, in many cross references, 00:35:16.889 --> 00:35:20.610 you will not find Philippians 2. Romans 10 verse 00:35:20.610 --> 00:35:27.289 9 and 10. Philippians 2 verse 9 and 10 as well. 00:35:28.329 --> 00:35:32.349 Philippians 2 verse 9 and 10. It's talking about 00:35:32.349 --> 00:35:37.250 people who, say, who profess their faith in Christ. 00:35:37.829 --> 00:35:40.190 People who believe and profess their faith. Because 00:35:40.190 --> 00:35:42.570 if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is 00:35:42.570 --> 00:35:44.010 the Lord and believe in your heart that God raised 00:35:44.010 --> 00:35:46.849 him from the dead, you will be saved. Next. For 00:35:46.849 --> 00:35:48.369 with your heart one believes and is justified 00:35:48.369 --> 00:35:50.550 and with the mouth one confesses and is saved. 00:35:50.829 --> 00:35:54.510 Philippians 2. Therefore God has highly exalted 00:35:54.510 --> 00:35:57.329 him and bestowed on him the name that is above 00:35:57.329 --> 00:36:02.269 every name so that at the name so that at the 00:36:02.269 --> 00:36:05.260 name Of Jesus, every knee should bow in heaven 00:36:05.260 --> 00:36:08.199 and on earth and under the heads and every tongue 00:36:08.199 --> 00:36:12.059 confess that Jesus Christ is the Lord to the 00:36:12.059 --> 00:36:15.519 glory of the Father, right? The whole context 00:36:15.519 --> 00:36:19.039 of that is believers coming to give glory to 00:36:19.039 --> 00:36:22.619 God by coming into faith, right? They come into 00:36:22.619 --> 00:36:26.159 faith. Good. So back to Philippians, back to 00:36:26.159 --> 00:36:29.659 our key scripture 12. So ignorance, we've passed 00:36:29.659 --> 00:36:31.809 that. Now we are in... Believing. So being born 00:36:31.809 --> 00:36:34.630 again comes. So the moment someone is born again, 00:36:34.809 --> 00:36:37.210 he can walk in the things of the spirit and should 00:36:37.210 --> 00:36:43.309 not be ignorant. Should not be ignorant. So four, 00:36:43.449 --> 00:36:46.150 verse four. He said, now there are varieties 00:36:46.150 --> 00:36:51.789 of gifts. Yes. Now this is where gifts is. This 00:36:51.789 --> 00:36:55.269 gift here is not the same thing as Doron. The 00:36:55.269 --> 00:36:59.769 gift here is charisma. Okay. The gift here is 00:36:59.769 --> 00:37:02.869 charisma. It means something that can be expressed. 00:37:04.289 --> 00:37:09.710 Right? The gift here is the word charisma. It's 00:37:09.710 --> 00:37:12.130 a diversity of gifts, diversity of charisma. 00:37:12.429 --> 00:37:15.989 Something that can be expressed. So you start 00:37:15.989 --> 00:37:18.349 with something that can be expressed. Charisma. 00:37:19.670 --> 00:37:25.489 A supernatural endowment. You need to get this 00:37:25.489 --> 00:37:29.940 one so that you would not... that the gift of 00:37:29.940 --> 00:37:33.159 the Spirit is something that will be added into 00:37:33.159 --> 00:37:36.360 you. No. As you have believed and you have received 00:37:36.360 --> 00:37:39.800 the Spirit, as you are born again, right? Born 00:37:39.800 --> 00:37:42.880 into the supernatural, it's inside. You get it. 00:37:42.920 --> 00:37:44.519 It's inside the supernatural. It's inside the 00:37:44.519 --> 00:37:48.480 Spirit. So, the gift here is supernatural endowments. 00:37:50.880 --> 00:37:54.199 Ability given to someone because of where they 00:37:54.199 --> 00:37:56.099 are, because of who they are, rather. Because 00:37:56.099 --> 00:37:59.119 of who they are. Ability given to someone because 00:37:59.119 --> 00:38:00.960 of who they are. So it means it is part of that 00:38:00.960 --> 00:38:04.420 person. It's like your talent. It's part of you. 00:38:06.219 --> 00:38:09.679 It's like your inherent ability. So the things 00:38:09.679 --> 00:38:12.139 that we'll be listing are not things that are 00:38:12.139 --> 00:38:14.000 strange to you. Are not things that you should 00:38:14.000 --> 00:38:16.340 be looking for outside. They are things that 00:38:16.340 --> 00:38:19.639 are within you and would be made available to 00:38:19.639 --> 00:38:24.179 people through you. Do we get it? Right? So they 00:38:24.179 --> 00:38:28.619 are ability inherent in persons. Two key things. 00:38:28.780 --> 00:38:32.480 It is not applied for and it is not learned. 00:38:33.099 --> 00:38:35.659 This will help you in praying in tongues. This 00:38:35.659 --> 00:38:37.980 is what I'm saying now. That it is not applied 00:38:37.980 --> 00:38:41.920 for, right? You apply to be trained, right? Or 00:38:41.920 --> 00:38:51.179 learned. No. It is exercised because it's inside 00:38:51.179 --> 00:38:54.199 of you. It's like someone, let me use very, let 00:38:54.199 --> 00:38:56.829 me go into the natural a little bit. Physical 00:38:56.829 --> 00:38:59.849 and useful. Someone that has big stomach, right? 00:38:59.909 --> 00:39:04.230 Are they going to import packs and fill the place 00:39:04.230 --> 00:39:07.110 up? No. The packs is there. It's just underneath. 00:39:07.789 --> 00:39:10.289 So if you have big stomach issue, you have hopes. 00:39:10.869 --> 00:39:13.329 You have some hopes if you got big stomach. It's 00:39:13.329 --> 00:39:14.889 just underneath. You just need to work it out. 00:39:15.429 --> 00:39:18.590 Right? So nobody's going to import it. No, it's 00:39:18.590 --> 00:39:21.269 there. You just need to. So the things of the 00:39:21.269 --> 00:39:23.809 Spirit, the gift of the Spirit is inherent in 00:39:23.809 --> 00:39:27.679 you. It is there. You don't need to apply for 00:39:27.679 --> 00:39:31.599 it. You don't need to learn it. You only exercise 00:39:31.599 --> 00:39:35.360 it. It is in the exercising of it that you see 00:39:35.360 --> 00:39:39.559 the great demonstration of it. It is exercising 00:39:39.559 --> 00:39:42.659 of it that you see the great demonstration of 00:39:42.659 --> 00:39:51.000 it. 2 Timothy 1, 6 -7. 2 Timothy 1, 6 -7. 2 Timothy 00:39:51.000 --> 00:39:57.199 1, 6 -7. For this reason, I remind you to do 00:39:57.199 --> 00:40:02.940 what? To fan into flame the gifts of God, which 00:40:02.940 --> 00:40:06.619 is what? In you through the lane of hands, right? 00:40:07.139 --> 00:40:12.059 So fan into flame, fan into flame, right? Fan 00:40:12.059 --> 00:40:14.900 into flame that gift of God, which is inside 00:40:14.900 --> 00:40:19.639 of you. Fan into flame. So it's inside of you. 00:40:19.800 --> 00:40:24.199 So it's inside of me. It's inside of me. And 00:40:24.199 --> 00:40:28.539 I give expression to it. Okay. So the Holy Spirit 00:40:28.539 --> 00:40:32.059 is freely given. Therefore, the abilities, therefore 00:40:32.059 --> 00:40:34.400 the gifts and the abilities in the Holy Ghost 00:40:34.400 --> 00:40:38.039 is freely given. Right? The Holy Spirit is freely 00:40:38.039 --> 00:40:39.880 given. Therefore, the gift and the abilities 00:40:39.880 --> 00:40:43.900 in the Holy Spirit is freely given. It's freely 00:40:43.900 --> 00:40:54.320 given. It is available. To all believers. It's 00:40:54.320 --> 00:40:56.940 freely given and it is available to all believers. 00:40:57.400 --> 00:41:00.820 So you have the spirit. Then you have the abilities 00:41:00.820 --> 00:41:04.000 of the spirit, the gift of the spirit. Then you 00:41:04.000 --> 00:41:08.159 can exercise it. You can exercise it. Nothing 00:41:08.159 --> 00:41:11.519 is to come upon you before you give expression 00:41:11.519 --> 00:41:15.659 to that which is inside of you. Now the next 00:41:15.659 --> 00:41:19.619 word we need to check is diversities. Diversities, 00:41:19.659 --> 00:41:26.599 right? Diversities. Diversities is the word diuresis. 00:41:27.900 --> 00:41:31.019 Diuresis. I think this was the word that was 00:41:31.019 --> 00:41:35.340 used in Acts chapter 2. Thank you. So diuresis. 00:41:39.980 --> 00:41:44.440 It implies varieties and different forms. Varieties 00:41:44.440 --> 00:41:48.280 and different forms. Numerous. More than one. 00:41:48.500 --> 00:41:53.960 So diuresis. D -I -A -I -R -E -S -I -S. D -I 00:41:53.960 --> 00:42:01.260 -A -I -R -E -S -I -S. D -I -A -I -R -E -S -I 00:42:01.260 --> 00:42:03.679 -S. I mean, the word dia is already there telling 00:42:03.679 --> 00:42:06.579 you it's multiple, right? It's multiple. It's 00:42:06.579 --> 00:42:10.320 in versions. It's in versions, yes. So it implies 00:42:10.320 --> 00:42:14.719 varieties, different, numerous. Therefore, the 00:42:14.719 --> 00:42:19.659 gift of the Spirit are varieties, right? And 00:42:19.659 --> 00:42:22.039 that is why it was the listing that followed, 00:42:22.179 --> 00:42:25.400 right? After that verse, the gift of the spirit 00:42:25.400 --> 00:42:28.960 are varieties. The spirit is one has varieties 00:42:28.960 --> 00:42:31.340 of gifts. You will see that it said there are 00:42:31.340 --> 00:42:34.980 varieties of gift, but the same spirits, the 00:42:34.980 --> 00:42:39.940 same spirits, the same spirits. So can you pray 00:42:39.940 --> 00:42:42.429 in tongues? Yes. Because you have the same spirit 00:42:42.429 --> 00:42:45.289 in you. Can you function in the miraculous? Yes. 00:42:45.369 --> 00:42:47.110 Because you have the spirit in you. Can you heal? 00:42:47.190 --> 00:42:51.570 Yes. Because it is of the same spirit. That same 00:42:51.570 --> 00:42:54.670 spirit. So, variety means it's not one. So, it 00:42:54.670 --> 00:42:57.369 means that a believer can flow in tongues. Right? 00:42:57.670 --> 00:43:00.730 A believer can give what? Interpretation of tongues. 00:43:00.929 --> 00:43:06.369 Right? A believer can prophesy. Right? Yes. A 00:43:06.369 --> 00:43:08.769 believer can give expression to supernatural 00:43:08.769 --> 00:43:13.380 faith. You know? I think, I don't know. Someone 00:43:13.380 --> 00:43:16.559 was telling me recently that there's somebody 00:43:16.559 --> 00:43:18.260 that, I think it was Mariah, that someone has 00:43:18.260 --> 00:43:21.059 a particular kind of faith. Like their faith 00:43:21.059 --> 00:43:24.739 is so strong. I'm like, you know, it's by the 00:43:24.739 --> 00:43:26.900 Spirit that is in them. We all have it. We give 00:43:26.900 --> 00:43:29.199 expression. And I asked the person, I said, what 00:43:29.199 --> 00:43:31.539 does the person do? He said, the person always 00:43:31.539 --> 00:43:35.059 believe whatever comes by the Spirit. Just believe. 00:43:35.280 --> 00:43:37.940 Whatever sees that. He wants the Spirit to take 00:43:37.940 --> 00:43:40.949 over in a situation. He believes that, like, 00:43:40.969 --> 00:43:44.670 just, the person goes beyond all the natural 00:43:44.670 --> 00:43:46.510 and the physical things that happen and say, 00:43:46.530 --> 00:43:48.429 no, this is how this thing will be. And the person 00:43:48.429 --> 00:43:51.789 doesn't doubt. That's an expression. That's an 00:43:51.789 --> 00:43:55.190 expression that allows it regularly, you know, 00:43:55.210 --> 00:43:57.250 and people will not be saying, ah, this guy said 00:43:57.250 --> 00:43:59.070 this thing, he believed it and it happened. Oh, 00:43:59.090 --> 00:44:00.610 this person said, because they are giving expression 00:44:00.610 --> 00:44:03.349 to it. So they are divested. So you can walk 00:44:03.349 --> 00:44:07.090 in any of it, any of these gifts, right? The 00:44:07.090 --> 00:44:11.820 walkings of miracles, The faith, discernment 00:44:11.820 --> 00:44:14.880 of spirits, right? We can walk in these gifts. 00:44:15.739 --> 00:44:22.840 So, the next one that we need to see is the same 00:44:22.840 --> 00:44:26.960 spirit. The same spirit. The same spirit, right? 00:44:27.099 --> 00:44:29.139 The same spirit. Don't forget this same spirit. 00:44:29.219 --> 00:44:33.079 Where did we start tracing the spirit from? Genesis. 00:44:33.699 --> 00:44:36.559 The same spirit. The same spirit. Now we come 00:44:36.559 --> 00:44:38.360 to the gift of the same spirit is giving us. 00:44:38.960 --> 00:44:43.820 Right? The same spirit. So he said, the same 00:44:43.820 --> 00:44:46.719 spirit, right? The same spirit, the same pneuma, 00:44:46.840 --> 00:44:52.239 right? The same pneuma, which is, of course, 00:44:52.300 --> 00:44:58.659 the same spirit in John 14. So let's write, 1 00:44:58.659 --> 00:45:01.440 Corinthians 2 .12, to emphasize the same spirit, 00:45:01.639 --> 00:45:04.280 it reflects the spirit of God at work in us. 00:45:04.679 --> 00:45:08.599 1 Corinthians 2 .12. We see that as the same 00:45:08.599 --> 00:45:17.199 Spirit of God. 1 Corinthians 3 .16 It says, Now 00:45:17.199 --> 00:45:18.780 we have not received the Spirit of the world, 00:45:18.860 --> 00:45:21.460 but the Spirit who is from God. I like this, 00:45:21.559 --> 00:45:24.920 right? The Spirit who is from God. The Spirit 00:45:24.920 --> 00:45:27.559 who is from God. That we might understand the 00:45:27.559 --> 00:45:31.000 things that are what? Freely given to us by God. 00:45:32.119 --> 00:45:34.880 This is what we are doing today. We are understanding 00:45:34.880 --> 00:45:37.780 the things that are freely given to us. By God. 00:45:39.300 --> 00:45:42.519 Because we have what? We have received the Spirit 00:45:42.519 --> 00:45:45.500 of God. Only the Spirit understands the things 00:45:45.500 --> 00:45:47.179 of the Spirit. And it's the one that explains 00:45:47.179 --> 00:45:50.460 it. So we have seen this. Now that's 1 Corinthians 00:45:50.460 --> 00:45:53.719 3 .16. Quickly. 1 Corinthians 3 .16. Do you not 00:45:53.719 --> 00:45:57.039 know that you are the temple and that God's Spirit 00:45:57.039 --> 00:46:00.980 dwells in you? So the Spirit that is in the believer. 00:46:01.039 --> 00:46:05.239 So not other spirits. Not something else. Nothing 00:46:05.239 --> 00:46:08.500 external. So something from within. So when I 00:46:08.500 --> 00:46:10.800 want to function in tongues, it's from what? 00:46:10.980 --> 00:46:14.179 It's from within. When I want to function in 00:46:14.179 --> 00:46:18.900 tongues, it's from within. I don't wait or sing 00:46:18.900 --> 00:46:21.480 some song, sing some song, sing some song, wait, 00:46:21.659 --> 00:46:25.019 sing some song, drum, drum, drum, drum, wait. 00:46:26.320 --> 00:46:28.679 Then all of a sudden, I go unconscious. Ah, no, 00:46:28.820 --> 00:46:31.559 it doesn't work like that. Right? It's from within. 00:46:31.780 --> 00:46:35.440 From the abundance. of the indwelling, then you 00:46:35.440 --> 00:46:38.659 begin to prophesy, you begin to speak in tongues, 00:46:38.739 --> 00:46:42.559 you begin to do all that is found in that same 00:46:42.559 --> 00:46:46.360 spirit. All right, 1 Corinthians 6, 17, the spirit 00:46:46.360 --> 00:46:49.619 that brought us into union with Christ. 1 Corinthians 00:46:49.619 --> 00:46:56.820 6, 17 to 20, actually. 17 to 20. But he who is 00:46:56.820 --> 00:46:59.179 joined to the Lord become one spirit with him. 00:47:00.139 --> 00:47:02.179 flee from sexual immorality. Every sin and person 00:47:02.179 --> 00:47:04.000 commits outside the body, but the sexual immorality 00:47:04.000 --> 00:47:07.539 person sins again in his own body. Or do you 00:47:07.539 --> 00:47:10.099 not know that your body is a temple of the Holy 00:47:10.099 --> 00:47:14.219 Spirit within you, whom you have from God? So 00:47:14.219 --> 00:47:16.119 that same spirit is from God. You are not your 00:47:16.119 --> 00:47:19.199 own. 20. For you were bought with a price and 00:47:19.199 --> 00:47:21.539 glorified God in your body. So that same spirit 00:47:21.539 --> 00:47:25.599 that is ours from God. 1 Corinthians 2 of 3. 00:47:26.280 --> 00:47:32.219 1 Corinthians 2 of 3. The same spirit that we 00:47:32.219 --> 00:47:33.920 receive from salvation, right? Therefore, I want 00:47:33.920 --> 00:47:35.840 you to understand that no one speaking, right? 00:47:35.900 --> 00:47:39.239 This is one of God ever says Jesus is a cause, 00:47:39.400 --> 00:47:41.940 right? No one can say Jesus is Lord. It means 00:47:41.940 --> 00:47:44.659 that someone who is saying, who is believing 00:47:44.659 --> 00:47:49.340 Christ, believe Christ through the spirit, right? 00:47:49.420 --> 00:47:52.440 They believe Christ through the spirit. So the 00:47:52.440 --> 00:47:55.199 word spirit, the word same day is actually autos, 00:47:55.300 --> 00:47:57.480 right? A -U, normal autos that you know, A -U 00:47:57.480 --> 00:48:01.730 -T -O -S, right? It's autos. And it reflects 00:48:01.730 --> 00:48:04.090 the same over and over again. You can just put 00:48:04.090 --> 00:48:07.889 this scripture, Acts 2 .36. It's using also the 00:48:07.889 --> 00:48:11.269 reflection of the same man, Jesus, the same person, 00:48:11.349 --> 00:48:17.949 Jesus, that same Christ, right? So if all gifts 00:48:17.949 --> 00:48:22.489 are from the same spirits and all believers have 00:48:22.489 --> 00:48:24.710 the same spirits, all believers can function 00:48:24.710 --> 00:48:31.289 in all the gifts. If all... If, sorry, if all 00:48:31.289 --> 00:48:34.550 gifts, yes, are from the same spirit, right? 00:48:34.650 --> 00:48:38.309 And all, if all gifts are from the same spirit 00:48:38.309 --> 00:48:41.230 and all believers have the same spirit, then 00:48:41.230 --> 00:48:44.289 all believers can function in all gifts. If all 00:48:44.289 --> 00:48:49.090 gifts are from the same spirit, then all believers 00:48:49.090 --> 00:48:52.869 that have the same spirit can function in all 00:48:52.869 --> 00:48:57.710 the gifts. See this? It's one that will clear 00:48:57.710 --> 00:49:12.730 us in many ways. All right. Let's see. So go 00:49:12.730 --> 00:49:15.829 to 1 Corinthians. Go to just that same chapter, 00:49:16.090 --> 00:49:20.630 verse 11. 1 Corinthians 2 of 11. 1 Corinthians 00:49:20.630 --> 00:49:24.710 2 of 11. It says, but all these, okay, all these 00:49:24.710 --> 00:49:28.449 are empowered by one and the same Spirit who 00:49:28.449 --> 00:49:34.630 apportions to, each one individually as he wills. 00:49:34.630 --> 00:49:37.530 We'll come to as he wills, right? It means that 00:49:37.530 --> 00:49:41.650 this same spirit helps every believer to function 00:49:41.650 --> 00:49:46.809 as they desire to function. Okay? So here we 00:49:46.809 --> 00:49:48.789 always say that when people read it, they say, 00:49:48.869 --> 00:49:51.670 oh, the spirit is the one that wills and decides, 00:49:52.010 --> 00:49:55.690 right? So the spirit decides what it will give 00:49:55.690 --> 00:50:00.280 you. Right? The spirit will decide. But this 00:50:00.280 --> 00:50:02.900 is actually talking about the believer, that 00:50:02.900 --> 00:50:06.639 the believer, right, is empowered by the same 00:50:06.639 --> 00:50:09.880 spirit as a desire. So you can desire to speak 00:50:09.880 --> 00:50:11.820 in tongues. You can desire to prophesy. You can 00:50:11.820 --> 00:50:14.099 desire to walk in healing. You can desire to 00:50:14.099 --> 00:50:17.500 walk in the miraculous. You can desire to prophesy, 00:50:17.500 --> 00:50:22.340 to speak, to do all of these, right? You can 00:50:22.340 --> 00:50:24.559 desire to walk in word of wisdom, word of knowledge, 00:50:24.780 --> 00:50:30.719 discernment, as you will. Ask your will because 00:50:30.719 --> 00:50:37.920 the Spirit is inside of you. So all this is being 00:50:37.920 --> 00:50:42.219 worked in on. Now this next one is what we should 00:50:42.219 --> 00:50:46.179 check. It said varieties of service, right? Varieties 00:50:46.179 --> 00:50:49.179 of service. Varieties of service. Of course, 00:50:49.199 --> 00:50:51.360 we already know what variety is, which is diuresis. 00:50:51.559 --> 00:50:54.460 So it's talking about varieties of service. It 00:50:54.460 --> 00:50:58.190 means that these gifts are given They are administered 00:50:58.190 --> 00:51:03.849 in diverse ways, right? Varieties of service 00:51:03.849 --> 00:51:05.869 means these give are administered in diverse 00:51:05.869 --> 00:51:11.550 ways, right? Healing, word of wisdom, word of 00:51:11.550 --> 00:51:14.769 knowledge, right? So if you are healing someone, 00:51:14.989 --> 00:51:17.670 that is, of course, most of them, some of the 00:51:17.670 --> 00:51:20.130 time they go together, but when you are healing 00:51:20.130 --> 00:51:22.170 someone, right? There's a way you administer 00:51:22.170 --> 00:51:25.409 healing. You pray in tongues, right? You prophesy. 00:51:25.929 --> 00:51:28.949 So there are ways by which these gifts are administered. 00:51:31.409 --> 00:51:33.949 Because the administration is the word diakonia, 00:51:34.010 --> 00:51:36.349 which we know is ministering to people. It's 00:51:36.349 --> 00:51:39.409 service to people. It's ministering to someone. 00:51:39.670 --> 00:51:42.570 So you need to know how all these gifts are administered. 00:51:43.650 --> 00:51:45.730 Now that you know that you have them in you, 00:51:45.869 --> 00:51:48.570 you need to understand how they are administered. 00:51:49.630 --> 00:51:55.079 You need to know how they are administered. You 00:51:55.079 --> 00:51:57.019 need to know how they are administered. Another 00:51:57.019 --> 00:52:02.260 word is the Lord, the same Lord, right? The same 00:52:02.260 --> 00:52:05.360 Lord, we should check that as well. We've seen 00:52:05.360 --> 00:52:08.199 administration, which I just touched upon briefly, 00:52:08.420 --> 00:52:12.400 is diakonia. Diakonia means different ways of 00:52:12.400 --> 00:52:14.800 ministering to people, right? Different ways 00:52:14.800 --> 00:52:17.500 of ministering to people, right? Ministries. 00:52:18.900 --> 00:52:20.699 So let's take the word, the same Lord. It's the 00:52:20.699 --> 00:52:24.059 same varieties of services, but the same Lord. 00:52:24.489 --> 00:52:28.949 The same Lord simply means, right? Same Lord 00:52:28.949 --> 00:52:33.230 simply refer to the fact that we are in the same 00:52:33.230 --> 00:52:39.150 family. We are under the same authority. We are 00:52:39.150 --> 00:52:42.010 in the body of Christ. We are in the same family. 00:52:42.110 --> 00:52:44.130 We are under the same authority. We are in the 00:52:44.130 --> 00:52:51.650 body of Christ. You know, the same Lord, under 00:52:51.650 --> 00:52:55.010 the authority in the same family, we are in the 00:52:55.010 --> 00:52:56.449 body of Christ. So it's referring to the body 00:52:56.449 --> 00:52:59.510 of Christ, right? It's referring to the body 00:52:59.510 --> 00:53:06.570 of Christ. So, it's referring to the body of 00:53:06.570 --> 00:53:13.849 Christ. If you read, how do we know? If you read 00:53:13.849 --> 00:53:17.869 verse 12 of that chapter 12, It says, for just 00:53:17.869 --> 00:53:21.809 as the body is one and has many words, members, 00:53:21.989 --> 00:53:25.869 and all members of the body, though many, one 00:53:25.869 --> 00:53:32.469 is it with Christ. Same Lord, same Christ, same 00:53:32.469 --> 00:53:38.989 spirit. Verse 12 of chapter, body in the body 00:53:38.989 --> 00:53:41.860 of Christ. So under the same authority, under 00:53:41.860 --> 00:53:44.260 the same Christ, right? That is what's reflected. 00:53:44.599 --> 00:53:49.099 So it means that nobody prophesying should prophesy 00:53:49.099 --> 00:53:53.099 anything that is outside Christ. Right? It means 00:53:53.099 --> 00:53:54.880 that anybody prophesying, anybody walking in 00:53:54.880 --> 00:53:58.000 the things of spirit can only function within 00:53:58.000 --> 00:54:02.519 that that is available in Christ. Right? You 00:54:02.519 --> 00:54:05.280 function within that. So what you say, what you 00:54:05.280 --> 00:54:09.530 prophesy, what you administer to people. is what 00:54:09.530 --> 00:54:13.090 is found in Christ, right? Is what is found in 00:54:13.090 --> 00:54:17.369 Christ. So varieties of administration, but one 00:54:17.369 --> 00:54:22.250 Lord. One Lord means we all function in Christ, 00:54:22.349 --> 00:54:25.769 not outside Christ, not outside the authority 00:54:25.769 --> 00:54:29.989 of what Christ has done. The next one is the 00:54:29.989 --> 00:54:33.070 varieties of activities, which is the word operations 00:54:33.070 --> 00:54:37.469 in some books, right? Varieties of activities. 00:54:39.860 --> 00:54:44.500 excuse me, varieties of activities, which is 00:54:44.500 --> 00:54:49.059 operations. That word operation is important 00:54:49.059 --> 00:54:52.380 because we are going to explain, right, the three 00:54:52.380 --> 00:54:55.000 operations of the things of the spirit. We're 00:54:55.000 --> 00:54:56.280 going to explain the three operations of things 00:54:56.280 --> 00:54:57.800 of the spirit. We're going to see them, how they 00:54:57.800 --> 00:55:02.380 function. It's actually enajima, right, enajima, 00:55:02.380 --> 00:55:05.800 which comes from enagio, operation, E -N -E -R. 00:55:06.920 --> 00:55:09.960 The varieties of activities, right? In other 00:55:09.960 --> 00:55:14.579 things, it gives operation. So, E -N -E -R -G 00:55:14.579 --> 00:55:22.860 -E -M -A. E -N -E -R -G -E -M -A. E -N -E -R 00:55:22.860 --> 00:55:25.980 -G -E -M -A. Which refers to the active working 00:55:25.980 --> 00:55:30.659 out of these gifts. Right? The active working 00:55:30.659 --> 00:55:33.820 out of these gifts. How do you... How do you 00:55:33.820 --> 00:55:35.880 function in tongues? What do you do when you 00:55:35.880 --> 00:55:42.380 function in tongues? We do what? We speak. Exactly. 00:55:43.679 --> 00:55:47.420 We speak. So you can also, you are murmuring 00:55:47.420 --> 00:55:50.820 in tongues. You are still groaning. You have 00:55:50.820 --> 00:55:54.360 not entered. You have not entered tongues. You 00:55:54.360 --> 00:55:56.739 are still somewhere. You know, you are groaning. 00:55:57.159 --> 00:56:00.400 Tongues, you must say. So that is how that operates. 00:56:00.539 --> 00:56:04.670 That's how that functions. So how is tongue active? 00:56:04.989 --> 00:56:09.110 It's active in such matters. It's energy. We 00:56:09.110 --> 00:56:14.369 see that in that. So let's see. Varieties of 00:56:14.369 --> 00:56:18.809 everybody. The same Lord empowers them all. Empowers 00:56:18.809 --> 00:56:23.690 them all. It means everybody. It means everybody, 00:56:24.030 --> 00:56:30.630 everybody is empowered. But before we go to this, 00:56:32.500 --> 00:56:36.199 before I go to empower them all, let's talk about 00:56:36.199 --> 00:56:38.880 the operations, actually. The operations is very 00:56:38.880 --> 00:56:41.159 important. So let's write it down. How do we 00:56:41.159 --> 00:56:45.760 function? How are we active? How do we work in 00:56:45.760 --> 00:56:48.539 these things? How do we make them... So you will 00:56:48.539 --> 00:56:51.440 not say that you want... How do you know you're 00:56:51.440 --> 00:56:53.579 working in it? Maybe that's another way to put 00:56:53.579 --> 00:56:55.480 it. How do you know you're working in it? How 00:56:55.480 --> 00:56:58.579 to work in it? How are they active? How are they 00:56:58.579 --> 00:57:04.090 effective? Right? So first, Tongues. Write it 00:57:04.090 --> 00:57:07.809 down. Tongues, interpretation of tongues and 00:57:07.809 --> 00:57:11.429 prophecy. Put them together. Tongues, interpretation 00:57:11.429 --> 00:57:17.989 of tongues and prophecy. Tongues, interpretation 00:57:17.989 --> 00:57:24.309 of tongues and prophecy. Are activated through 00:57:24.309 --> 00:57:27.909 all trances. All trance. So we call them the 00:57:27.909 --> 00:57:32.039 all trance gifts. So they are effective. By all 00:57:32.039 --> 00:57:33.960 trans. You've never seen, you'll never see a 00:57:33.960 --> 00:57:36.760 prophet that is keeping quiet. So you cannot 00:57:36.760 --> 00:57:38.199 say you are prophesying and you're keeping quiet. 00:57:38.440 --> 00:57:39.639 You'll never say, you'll not say you are praying 00:57:39.639 --> 00:57:41.320 in tongues and you're keeping quiet. You'll not 00:57:41.320 --> 00:57:45.599 say you are, you are interpreting tongues and 00:57:45.599 --> 00:57:49.239 you're not saying anything. Right? So it's by 00:57:49.239 --> 00:57:52.980 all trans. It's all trans. This is how we operate 00:57:52.980 --> 00:57:56.219 in this thing. Right? So this is how we operate. 00:57:56.340 --> 00:57:59.500 Now the next one is, Word of knowledge, word 00:57:59.500 --> 00:58:02.840 of wisdom, and discernment of spirits, which 00:58:02.840 --> 00:58:04.880 you have seen. You will see that those listings 00:58:04.880 --> 00:58:09.260 started from eight. Word of wisdom, word of knowledge, 00:58:09.519 --> 00:58:14.340 discernment of spirits. And scriptures will say, 00:58:14.519 --> 00:58:20.400 test every spirit. You discern your discernment 00:58:20.400 --> 00:58:25.000 of spirits. Word of knowledge, word of wisdom. 00:58:26.059 --> 00:58:28.019 The assignment of spirit. We're going to teach 00:58:28.019 --> 00:58:31.320 them in detail. We take them gradually. These 00:58:31.320 --> 00:58:34.719 ones are called revelational gifts. They operate 00:58:34.719 --> 00:58:39.039 by revelation. So there's a revelation granted 00:58:39.039 --> 00:58:42.400 unto you to give a word of wisdom to a brother. 00:58:42.480 --> 00:58:46.039 Then you give the word of wisdom. There's a revelation. 00:58:46.059 --> 00:58:50.500 By the spirit, you receive a revelation. By the 00:58:50.500 --> 00:58:52.260 spirit, you can tell which spirit is of God, 00:58:52.300 --> 00:58:54.500 which spirit is not of God. By revelation, you 00:58:54.500 --> 00:59:00.170 know. Word of knowledge, right? Things happening, 00:59:00.429 --> 00:59:04.829 things taking place, circumstances around, you 00:59:04.829 --> 00:59:07.429 know by the Spirit. You have not been there, 00:59:07.530 --> 00:59:09.650 you have not been, but by the Spirit you know, 00:59:09.690 --> 00:59:12.369 you have this knowledge, right? You have this 00:59:12.369 --> 00:59:18.349 knowledge. It is supernatural. It is supernatural. 00:59:18.429 --> 00:59:20.510 You can be somebody, that's why when we minister 00:59:20.510 --> 00:59:22.849 to each other, what we do sometimes, we give 00:59:22.849 --> 00:59:25.190 word, after we pray in tongues, right? We give 00:59:25.190 --> 00:59:27.650 interpretation. Then we give word of knowledge. 00:59:27.710 --> 00:59:30.449 Sometimes we perceive, right, people having problems 00:59:30.449 --> 00:59:32.989 in different areas of their life and we share 00:59:32.989 --> 00:59:34.429 with you. That's where you say you're having 00:59:34.429 --> 00:59:36.889 this problem, right? And we give you the comfort 00:59:36.889 --> 00:59:40.510 of the spirits. Sometimes it comes as, it comes 00:59:40.510 --> 00:59:44.429 as word of wisdom, right? Word of wisdom, yes. 00:59:44.690 --> 00:59:46.889 It comes at that. So we tell you what to do. 00:59:46.909 --> 00:59:48.550 Okay, this is the circumstances and you tell 00:59:48.550 --> 00:59:50.469 us, okay, sir, this is the situation I find myself 00:59:50.469 --> 00:59:53.590 and that's true. Then do the simple word that 00:59:53.590 --> 00:59:57.699 helps you out of that. Because all the gifts 00:59:57.699 --> 01:00:00.340 of the Spirit are supposed to help you out of 01:00:00.340 --> 01:00:02.360 trouble. They're supposed to edify you. We're 01:00:02.360 --> 01:00:04.940 going to come to that. It is the word to profit 01:00:04.940 --> 01:00:10.500 with all. Right? So, all these gifts is for profiting 01:00:10.500 --> 01:00:15.340 of the recipient. Right? It's for the profit. 01:00:15.380 --> 01:00:19.099 So, the word of knowledge and the sign of Spirit, 01:00:19.199 --> 01:00:21.159 they are revelation. You see something. You know 01:00:21.159 --> 01:00:24.809 something. It comes to your mind. you function 01:00:24.809 --> 01:00:27.070 in it. The third one, the third one, which we 01:00:27.070 --> 01:00:29.670 call the power gifts, the third one, which we 01:00:29.670 --> 01:00:33.789 call the power gifts, they are actually workings 01:00:33.789 --> 01:00:38.909 of miracles, workings of miracles, gifts of healing, 01:00:39.130 --> 01:00:43.090 and gifts of faith. Workings of miracles, gifts 01:00:43.090 --> 01:00:46.010 of healing, and gifts of faith. They are power 01:00:46.010 --> 01:00:50.969 gifts, right? They are power gifts. They are 01:00:50.969 --> 01:00:55.150 power gifts. So this is how they function. So 01:00:55.150 --> 01:00:58.309 in this ones, right, of course you can, it's 01:00:58.309 --> 01:01:00.409 sometimes, most of the time they walk with altruism, 01:01:00.489 --> 01:01:02.530 but you're healing someone, you're laying hands 01:01:02.530 --> 01:01:05.929 on someone and the person is healed. You find 01:01:05.929 --> 01:01:07.750 someone in trouble and you're believing and having 01:01:07.750 --> 01:01:10.349 faith alongside, holding their hands that they 01:01:10.349 --> 01:01:12.750 will come out of this in faith in God, walkings 01:01:12.750 --> 01:01:15.449 of miracles. So this is how they function. These 01:01:15.449 --> 01:01:17.690 are the operations of it. So we have the three 01:01:17.690 --> 01:01:20.630 different operations of the things, of the gifts 01:01:20.630 --> 01:01:25.719 of the spirits. It's given to every man. Every 01:01:25.719 --> 01:01:29.039 man. It means that every man has it. Every man 01:01:29.039 --> 01:01:32.139 does what? Has it. Every man has this in them. 01:01:32.820 --> 01:01:37.039 Every man has this. Let's go back to the scriptures. 01:01:37.239 --> 01:01:40.699 Verse 7. It said, To each is given the manifestation 01:01:40.699 --> 01:01:45.659 of the Spirit for common good. Right? So, because 01:01:45.659 --> 01:01:51.880 of the way it follows the listing. Right? Because 01:01:51.880 --> 01:01:54.860 that verse, It's followed by the listing of the 01:01:54.860 --> 01:01:58.280 gifts. We assume it's actually demonstration, 01:01:58.460 --> 01:02:01.480 but it's not demonstration, right? It's not demonstration. 01:02:01.539 --> 01:02:06.519 It's phanerosis, right? Which is another word 01:02:06.519 --> 01:02:10.619 to explain the indwelling. It's phanerosis. It 01:02:10.619 --> 01:02:14.780 means to open up, to lay bare, right? To make 01:02:14.780 --> 01:02:19.750 available. It's another phrase that expresses 01:02:19.750 --> 01:02:22.250 the man. So, and you will see that it is manifestation, 01:02:22.289 --> 01:02:26.590 not manifestations, right? It's not a plural. 01:02:26.809 --> 01:02:28.789 Anyway, you see, at least within this context, 01:02:28.889 --> 01:02:32.750 it keeps it as the manifestation of the Spirit 01:02:32.750 --> 01:02:37.469 in a man is given for another man to profit. 01:02:38.769 --> 01:02:42.389 It means for the benefit of another man. Why? 01:02:42.530 --> 01:02:45.829 Because you yourself have received the benefit 01:02:45.829 --> 01:02:49.070 of the Spirit. Therefore, All that will benefit 01:02:49.070 --> 01:02:52.809 from you. Right? He said, for each is given the 01:02:52.809 --> 01:02:56.289 manifestation of the Spirit. The revelation of 01:02:56.289 --> 01:03:01.190 the Spirit that is in them for common good. Right? 01:03:01.210 --> 01:03:05.989 It's given for common good. It's the same thing 01:03:05.989 --> 01:03:09.449 as Ezekiel 36, 26. It's the same thing as John 01:03:09.449 --> 01:03:13.030 14. So, it's only explaining that now that you 01:03:13.030 --> 01:03:16.690 have the Spirit working these things. Right? 01:03:17.500 --> 01:03:20.460 Hence, it is when you receive the Holy Spirit, 01:03:20.539 --> 01:03:24.460 you walk in these things that I'm listing. And 01:03:24.460 --> 01:03:27.420 it's saying that this list is for those that 01:03:27.420 --> 01:03:30.800 will receive it. It's for those that will receive 01:03:30.800 --> 01:03:35.760 it. So, is the manifestation right? Is it demonstration? 01:03:36.000 --> 01:03:37.940 No, it's not demonstration. Let's go to demonstration 01:03:37.940 --> 01:03:45.559 1 Corinthians 2 and see. 1 Corinthians 2. 1 Corinthians 01:03:45.559 --> 01:03:48.559 2 from verse 1. He said, and when I came to you, 01:03:48.619 --> 01:03:51.699 brothers, did not come proclaiming to you the 01:03:51.699 --> 01:03:54.360 testimony of God with lofty speech or wisdom, 01:03:54.519 --> 01:03:56.920 right? For I decided to know nothing among you 01:03:56.920 --> 01:04:00.320 except Jesus Christ and Him crucified. And I 01:04:00.320 --> 01:04:02.260 was with you in weakness and in fear and more 01:04:02.260 --> 01:04:05.480 trembling. And with my speech, my message, were 01:04:05.480 --> 01:04:09.300 not implausible words of wisdom, but the demonstration 01:04:09.300 --> 01:04:14.219 of the Spirit, which is power, so that your faith 01:04:14.219 --> 01:04:18.239 might not rest. in the wisdom of men, but in 01:04:18.239 --> 01:04:23.420 the power of God. My not resting words, in the 01:04:23.420 --> 01:04:27.400 wisdom of men, but in the power of God. So Paul 01:04:27.400 --> 01:04:31.059 is saying that, you know, as I preach the gospel, 01:04:31.280 --> 01:04:34.079 right? In my speech, I do not come in just the 01:04:34.079 --> 01:04:35.400 preaching of the gospel, but the preaching of 01:04:35.400 --> 01:04:38.619 the gospel is followed by the demonstration of 01:04:38.619 --> 01:04:41.039 the things of the spirits, which is powerful. 01:04:48.909 --> 01:04:52.809 So here is actually demonstration. Over here 01:04:52.809 --> 01:04:56.789 is demonstration. Paul is demonstrating. As he 01:04:56.789 --> 01:04:59.050 is preaching the gospel, as he is explaining 01:04:59.050 --> 01:05:02.150 to them, he is demonstrating the abundance of 01:05:02.150 --> 01:05:04.809 the power of God. So is there demonstration? 01:05:05.050 --> 01:05:09.210 Yes, there is demonstration. The reason why we 01:05:09.210 --> 01:05:11.530 explain scripture like this is that we want to 01:05:11.530 --> 01:05:14.070 use the right scripture to explain the right 01:05:14.070 --> 01:05:18.420 practice. Do we get it? We try to use the right 01:05:18.420 --> 01:05:22.340 scripture to explain the right practice, right? 01:05:22.400 --> 01:05:23.920 So there's demonstration of things of spirit, 01:05:24.119 --> 01:05:27.679 right? Demonstration of the things of the spirit. 01:05:28.420 --> 01:05:32.460 Praise God. So it's given to every man, to prophets. 01:05:33.360 --> 01:05:37.940 Now, this one is the one that's, I think we have 01:05:37.940 --> 01:05:40.099 been talking about it for a while, but we need 01:05:40.099 --> 01:05:43.460 to talk about it now. When you receive, when 01:05:43.460 --> 01:05:47.219 you are functioning in the gifts, Right? When 01:05:47.219 --> 01:05:50.599 you're functioning in any of the gifts, when 01:05:50.599 --> 01:05:52.380 you're functioning in any of the gifts, you are 01:05:52.380 --> 01:05:56.079 not ministering to yourself. Okay? You are not 01:05:56.079 --> 01:05:58.599 ministering to yourself. You are ministering 01:05:58.599 --> 01:06:02.480 to somebody. The recipient is the person that 01:06:02.480 --> 01:06:07.000 will receive. Then somebody else will now come 01:06:07.000 --> 01:06:11.420 and what? Minister unto you. That is why in chapter 01:06:11.420 --> 01:06:17.800 14, it says, verse 26, When them brethren, when 01:06:17.800 --> 01:06:20.360 you come together, each of you has something 01:06:20.360 --> 01:06:25.579 to give. Do you get it? So everybody come because 01:06:25.579 --> 01:06:29.000 we have something to give, right? This is not, 01:06:29.039 --> 01:06:31.440 you know, they say we have come to a generation 01:06:31.440 --> 01:06:33.760 where everybody comes to church to just receive, 01:06:33.980 --> 01:06:37.440 right? You receive from your pastor. You receive 01:06:37.440 --> 01:06:40.300 both financially and spiritually and economically 01:06:40.300 --> 01:06:43.800 and politically and in all forms, educationally. 01:06:44.269 --> 01:06:46.969 You just want to receive. Now minister to your 01:06:46.969 --> 01:06:48.949 pastor, spiritually too. You still want to be 01:06:48.949 --> 01:06:52.070 laid out on you. Ah, no, no. It doesn't work 01:06:52.070 --> 01:06:55.289 like that. We all, when we come together, we 01:06:55.289 --> 01:06:58.250 do what? We have something to give. He said, 01:06:58.269 --> 01:07:00.130 each of you has a hymn, a lesson, a revelation, 01:07:00.250 --> 01:07:03.130 a tongue, an interpretation. Let all things be 01:07:03.130 --> 01:07:04.750 done for building up. We are building each other 01:07:04.750 --> 01:07:09.230 up. Right? So it is to give. So I cannot say, 01:07:09.309 --> 01:07:11.010 I want to minister to myself. Right? That's not 01:07:11.010 --> 01:07:14.590 a practice we see there. Okay. So the recipient 01:07:14.590 --> 01:07:20.630 is the one, right? That's will receive. The recipient 01:07:20.630 --> 01:07:23.309 is the one, right? So the word profit with all 01:07:23.309 --> 01:07:30.130 is some Pharaoh, right? Some Pharaoh. Some Pharaoh 01:07:30.130 --> 01:07:36.489 is the word S U M P H E R O. S U M P H E R O. 01:07:37.570 --> 01:07:42.980 S U M P H E R O. So when we begin to receive 01:07:42.980 --> 01:07:46.420 teachings in this direction, we should know that 01:07:46.420 --> 01:07:51.679 we want to some Pharaoh, right? We want to do 01:07:51.679 --> 01:07:56.099 it. Give something to each other, common advantage. 01:07:57.380 --> 01:07:59.949 So you must be prepared to give. Regularly when 01:07:59.949 --> 01:08:02.730 you say the believers meeting, you must set your 01:08:02.730 --> 01:08:04.809 heart. I'm going to pray in tongues. I'm going 01:08:04.809 --> 01:08:07.230 to give an interpretation. I'm going to prophesy. 01:08:07.449 --> 01:08:09.949 I'm going to walk in healing. I'm going to walk 01:08:09.949 --> 01:08:12.650 in faith for my brother. I have the word of wisdom 01:08:12.650 --> 01:08:15.550 regarding my sister. I have the word of all. 01:08:15.670 --> 01:08:18.750 I have the signing of spirit. I discern for them. 01:08:18.770 --> 01:08:21.569 I walk in the things of the spirit. This is how 01:08:21.569 --> 01:08:25.029 you come. You don't just come. You have to prepare 01:08:25.029 --> 01:08:28.149 your mind. You have to prepare your hearts. that 01:08:28.149 --> 01:08:30.130 this is what you want to do. That is why he says, 01:08:30.210 --> 01:08:34.229 as you will. He giveth every man as the man wills. 01:08:34.229 --> 01:08:36.649 So the Spirit allows you to function in those 01:08:36.649 --> 01:08:38.829 things because you have willed. You have set 01:08:38.829 --> 01:08:41.750 your heart to function in interpretation of tongues. 01:08:41.850 --> 01:08:43.829 You have set your heart to prophesy to someone 01:08:43.829 --> 01:08:52.210 as you will. So, it is for the common good. The 01:08:52.210 --> 01:08:56.050 common good there is used because you give me 01:08:56.050 --> 01:08:59.069 and I give you. Right? That's why we hold each 01:08:59.069 --> 01:09:01.069 other to. This is where the practice is, right? 01:09:01.170 --> 01:09:03.470 We hold each other to. Minister to somebody that 01:09:03.470 --> 01:09:05.649 the person must minister to you back. That is 01:09:05.649 --> 01:09:11.609 the common good. That is the common good. Every 01:09:11.609 --> 01:09:16.909 man that has believed the gospel can give the 01:09:16.909 --> 01:09:19.289 things of the Spirit, can minister the things 01:09:19.289 --> 01:09:35.899 of the Spirit. So, let's see. Other scriptures 01:09:35.899 --> 01:09:38.560 that use the word the prophet without. Other 01:09:38.560 --> 01:09:39.920 scriptures that use the word the prophet without. 01:09:40.000 --> 01:09:42.579 We'll just write it down. We'll just write it 01:09:42.579 --> 01:09:46.079 down. We'll just write it down. We'll do a few 01:09:46.079 --> 01:09:49.779 little bit of practice before we go for break. 01:09:49.939 --> 01:09:53.279 We'll do practice now. We have thoughts and therefore 01:09:53.279 --> 01:09:56.369 let it be. There's more teaching coming. This 01:09:56.369 --> 01:09:58.449 is just introduction to the gift of the Spirit. 01:09:58.649 --> 01:10:01.449 So, Mediatim is introduction one and two. All 01:10:01.449 --> 01:10:02.770 these things that I've been saying since morning. 01:10:03.210 --> 01:10:06.710 It's just introduction. So, when Pastor Kirsten 01:10:06.710 --> 01:10:11.810 comes, we'll take it up again. Alright, so. And 01:10:11.810 --> 01:10:13.810 other scriptures that we can find some fair. 01:10:13.890 --> 01:10:17.350 1 Corinthians 6, 12. Right? Everything is loveful 01:10:17.350 --> 01:10:20.130 to me, but not everything is expedient. 1 Corinthians 01:10:20.130 --> 01:10:27.439 6, 12. Right? 1 Corinthians 7 .35. 1 Corinthians 01:10:27.439 --> 01:10:39.039 7 .35. 1 Corinthians 10 .23. 1 Corinthians 10 01:10:39.039 --> 01:10:57.739 .23. All right, good. So this is actually, now 01:10:57.739 --> 01:11:00.359 for demonstration of the spirit, can you write 01:11:00.359 --> 01:11:03.020 this down? The demonstration of the spirit. Can 01:11:03.020 --> 01:11:09.119 you write it down? Can I write the Greek quote 01:11:09.119 --> 01:11:12.739 down? Then we find where it's used. Apodexis, 01:11:13.020 --> 01:11:16.000 A -P -O, right? That word demonstration, which 01:11:16.000 --> 01:11:19.260 is different from manifestation. A -P -O -D -E 01:11:19.260 --> 01:11:35.970 -I -X -I -S. A -P -O -D -E -I -X -I -S. So this 01:11:35.970 --> 01:11:38.250 is demonstration of the power of God. It means 01:11:38.250 --> 01:11:41.170 that Paul was doing something that is visible. 01:11:42.109 --> 01:11:44.750 Okay? Something that is visible. Something that 01:11:44.750 --> 01:11:48.409 is observable. Something that can be seen in 01:11:48.409 --> 01:11:53.510 the physical. Right? Something that can be acknowledged 01:11:53.510 --> 01:11:56.539 in the physical. That's the demonstration of 01:11:56.539 --> 01:11:59.319 the Spirit, right? Something that can be acknowledged 01:11:59.319 --> 01:12:09.819 in the physical. So now we can see, right? We 01:12:09.819 --> 01:12:13.880 can see after this introduction that the same 01:12:13.880 --> 01:12:17.300 Spirit from Genesis dwells in us, right? The 01:12:17.300 --> 01:12:19.659 same Spirit from Genesis dwells in us. We all 01:12:19.659 --> 01:12:22.979 have the same Spirit and this Spirit functions 01:12:22.979 --> 01:12:26.600 through every one of us. We can walk in all the 01:12:26.600 --> 01:12:29.659 gifts, right? We can walk with, do we agree on 01:12:29.659 --> 01:12:32.279 that? We saw that from the scripture. We are 01:12:32.279 --> 01:12:35.979 under the same authority of Christ to function 01:12:35.979 --> 01:12:38.739 and minister what is in Christ to each other. 01:12:38.880 --> 01:12:42.079 Are we together? Yes, we can minister what is 01:12:42.079 --> 01:12:46.020 in Christ to each other. We can minister. As 01:12:46.020 --> 01:12:48.680 I minister, I minister to my brother for his 01:12:48.680 --> 01:12:51.239 edification and somebody minister to me for my 01:12:51.239 --> 01:12:54.810 what? Edification. Glory to God. Can we be on 01:12:54.810 --> 01:12:57.609 our feet? Let's do this now. A little bit of 01:12:57.609 --> 01:13:00.390 practice. A little bit of practice. Let's just 01:13:00.390 --> 01:13:03.949 hold each other. Let's hold. Just pick one person. 01:13:04.050 --> 01:13:06.930 Pick one person. Quickly, quickly, quickly. Let's 01:13:06.930 --> 01:13:09.489 minister to one another. Now, I've told you the 01:13:09.489 --> 01:13:12.170 gifts. I've told you the gifts. As you desire, 01:13:12.310 --> 01:13:15.470 I want you to desire. I want you to desire. Just 01:13:15.470 --> 01:13:20.109 hold one person. Hold one person. Desire this 01:13:20.109 --> 01:13:22.430 gift. As you desire, the Spirit will give you 01:13:23.039 --> 01:13:26.680 To function in these things, right? Let's hold 01:13:26.680 --> 01:13:31.180 each other quickly. As we desire. As we desire. 01:13:32.680 --> 01:13:36.739 As we desire. So we start. How do we do it? We 01:13:36.739 --> 01:13:39.000 start by praying in tongues, right? We start 01:13:39.000 --> 01:13:41.239 by praying in tongues, right? Ultrons. The ultrons 01:13:41.239 --> 01:13:44.060 of tongues is supernatural, right? It guides 01:13:44.060 --> 01:13:47.640 us to flow in what? In the gift of the Spirit, 01:13:47.819 --> 01:13:50.720 okay? It guides us to flow in the gift. So when 01:13:50.720 --> 01:13:52.439 you see that, when the message is preached, one 01:13:52.439 --> 01:13:55.539 of the first signs is what? Tongues. It just 01:13:55.539 --> 01:13:58.899 flows, right? It's the space of the believer, 01:13:59.039 --> 01:14:01.619 right? So we will pray in tongues now and we 01:14:01.619 --> 01:14:03.319 will minister to each other. So you know the 01:14:03.319 --> 01:14:04.899 gifts, right? You know them in your mind. You 01:14:04.899 --> 01:14:09.359 have the power gift, which is healing faith, 01:14:09.659 --> 01:14:12.340 right? You have walking of miracles. You can 01:14:12.340 --> 01:14:14.699 desire that and you can walk in it. We have the 01:14:14.699 --> 01:14:17.140 Ultron's gift. You have tongues. You have interpretation 01:14:17.140 --> 01:14:20.460 of tongues and we have prophecy in there. You 01:14:20.460 --> 01:14:22.159 can desire that. We have revelation, word of 01:14:22.159 --> 01:14:24.279 wisdom, word of knowledge, right? And the sermon. 01:14:24.340 --> 01:14:26.979 You can have that. You have it in you. Rather, 01:14:27.060 --> 01:14:30.479 you can walk in that. You can flow in that. Can 01:14:30.479 --> 01:14:35.460 we begin to pray in tongues?
