Welcome to NECF sermons. Each message here is
designed to uplift and strengthen you in your
walk with God. Don't miss out. Stay with us until
the end for a rewarding experience. Let's dive
right in. Hebrews chapter 10. Look at verse 26.
Now we have been for a long time looking at a
crucial issue, which has been for some time a
matter of controversy, but it's not. And we'll
be looking at issues around women's liberty.
Now the theme of the year, greater works and
one important thing I want to note about greater
works is that it cannot or let me say it should
not or it won't be done in isolation. Amen? God
is not calling us to do His work in isolation,
individually. Hallelujah. That's why we saw in
that text, John chapter 14, verse 12, those who
believe in Him, He's speaking to not an individual,
He's speaking to a group. Hallelujah. He's speaking
to a group. If you is not talking about one person,
so the you is not a single person. Are we together?
You believe you will do greater works. Are we
together? And so ministry, works of God, greater
works, is never done in isolation. And you will
do yourself a favor if your reading of scripture
is adjusted from I to we. Are we together? From
I to we. So even if you hear it says you, then
just automatically, Think he's talking to an
individual. Even when he says, you are the temple
of God, or you are the temple of the Holy Spirit.
He's not talking just as an individual. Yes,
we are united with him. Yes, individually in
the son, we are also, we are hosting God. Yes,
means that we are his house. Very importantly,
it's a community in a sense. It's a family. The
house is a family. So when you said, Christ in
you, the hope of glory, is not talking about
an individual. He's also talking about a collective
or a group of people, a community of believers.
And if you check the entirety of the plan of
God, It's only an individual. It's a family.
It's a family. That's his intent. That's his
blueprint from the foundation of the wall. So
Christ's work came to bring many sons to glory.
So even as we discuss the issue of issues about
or around women's liberty, don't think because
we said women, so it doesn't concern you as a
man. No, because this family is male and female.
And as we noted in most of our texts, in all
our teachings, that the plan of God for creating
a man is the same plan for creating a woman.
Because the family he created is not physical
family. It's a spiritual one. That's why in him,
there is no male or female. So we try to look
at a lot of issues. In the spirit, male and females
are called sons. Sons of God is not male. Sons
of God is a spiritual breed, a new creation.
So we can differ in our biological... or sex,
or body, but in Christ, we are one. And that's
the focus. So that you know that you need your
sister in this ministry. You know that you need
your brother in this ministry. To do greater
works, you need your sister, you need your brother.
And that's what we've been trying to communicate.
And we move on, move on, move on, up until now,
we are in where we wanted to explain something.
We arrive, on issues regarding dressing in the
sun. And we started by looking at a scripture
which we explore in Deuteronomy concerning a
woman not wearing the things of a man or the
man not wearing the things of a woman. Although
it didn't say whichever it is, but we have already
classified things. And that has been an issue
of controversy. But then we said what we will
do is to study in the first place What is the
audience of Moses when he was writing them that
text Who was he addressing it to And we look
at it we saw that he was addressing it to the
generation which are about to enter canon The
latter generation that survived knows those ones
that left Egypt. And we look at again, what was
the identity of these people? We saw that their
identity, they were unbelievers. We said, okay.
And then we looked at these. And we said, okay,
was that a law of the spirit of a law of Moses?
Are we together? Remember, we looked at a lot
of things concerning the difference between the
Ten Commandments and the Law of Moses. And we
make a striking distinction that if you check
in the Law of Moses, we see all kinds of things.
It's focused on performance. It's about death.
It's about evil. It's about diseases. You do
this. You don't do this. You are killed. The
question is that, where did that emanate? And
we looked at that the law of Moses came later,
430 years after the promise was given to Hebra.
And we started studying, trying to detail, okay,
how was the law given in the first place? Where
did we find killing and the rest coming into?
Are we together? Are you with me? I'm trying
to bring some of us that have not been with us.
because it's a long journey we had. This is part
25, I think. And we're still moving. So the point
is that now we're trying to study how the law
was given. And the intent is for us at the end
of the day to understand how many of the things
that now has been accorded to God, you understand,
arrive into the text we have. Hallelujah. And
then by the time we arrive at the destination,
you probably must have now understood how to
read what we call the Old Testament and also
how to know, to assess truth. How do we assess
truth? Amen. Are we together? There are many
things written in this text, especially in the
Old Testament. How do we assess which one is
God, which one is not God? Because even his prophet,
his people said something that is not God. How
do you know? Because the person is standing on
the state of God and he said it. We see killing
done by prophet of God. You understand? Are you
with me? So we see even a lot of things if you
have been following us in the Canonica You must
have read we are Moses in the Sun and the Bible
said and what said to Moses in the Sun one carry
demand I see kill him stone him. Have you have
you been following us? The question is that How
do you know that instruction came from God? in
the Sun How do you assess the truth? Who is?
the standard of truths i don't know whether you
understand what i'm trying to say we are not
saying and then what makes a prophet of god who
understand the things of god yet spoke in that
way because it's not just only to say that it
is not god that instructed that it's another
thing to explain how did he you understand say
such a thing amen are we together and i want
you to understand something very important And
that's why you have to follow very carefully
and gradually. Because the point needs to be
explained clearly. So we're still looking at
the giving of the law. Amen. Hebrews chapter
10, I said, right? Look at verse 26. For if we,
sin willfully, after we have received the knowledge
of God, the knowledge of truth, There is no longer
remained a sacrifice for sin, but a certain fearful
expectation of judgment and fiery indignation
which will devour the adversary. Look at verse
28. That is where I want you to see. Anyone who
has rejected what? Moses' law. Do what? How?
Without mercy. on the testimony of two or three
witnesses. So what can we say about the law?
In the law, there is no mercy. What did I say?
In the law, there is not. What? There is no mercy.
Psalms 103. Psalms 103 verse seven. What someone
said, he made known his ways to Moses, his act
to the children of Israel. The Lord is merciful
and gracious, slow to anger and abounding in
mercy. He will not always strive with us, nor
will he keep his anger forever. He has not dealt
with us according to our sins. nor punish us
according to our iniquities. For as the heavens
are high above the earth, so great is his mercy
toward those who fear him. As far as the east
is from the west, so far has he removed our transgressions
from us." Look at verse 7. I want you to pay
attention, please. We have already noted in our
previous teaching that the law came through who?
Through Moses. We have already seen that there
is no mess in the law. But look at the ways of
the law, also already revealed to Moses. So when
Moses wrote the law, he is already aware of the
ways of God. Because we have said that the revelation
of God is a gift. So it is the law that made
his ways known. Moses didn't do anything to end
it. Are we together with him? Are you together
with him? So he said he made known his ways to
Moses. He made known his ways to Moses. And his
act to the children, of course, he has to only
make his act to the children because they don't
want to know the ways. Remember we have known
that they... For 40 years they refused to believe.
Are we together? So definitely there is no how
you can make your ways to a non -believer. Because
he does not want to even understand. So he made
his ways known to Moses. And look at, he now
describes what actually is about that ways of
God. Look at verse 8. He said the Lord is what?
Merciful and what? And gracious. But then how
come that the law had no mercy? If the same man
who had known that the Lord is what? Is merciful
and gracious. How comes the law is not without
mercy? Once you see you do what? Is that why
we say today? They acquire you. Are we together?
So follow me gradually. You now said that It's
what? It's slow to anger and abounding in mercy.
You see that word? Slow to anger. If you don't
read it correctly, you will think that the Lord
gets angry, but He gets it slowly. Do you understand
what I'm trying to say? That's what it means
by what? Slow to anger. Amen. Now look at that
word, slow. The word slow is translated from
the word arrack. that is a -r -e -k a -r -e -k
it means long actually it means long something
long you know it could be long wind so it is
used like you can say long wind or long suffering
so you can you understand what I'm trying to
say it's actually the word long you know so that's
why I say slow to anger And the word to anger,
that word to anger, is one word. To anger is
one word in Hebrew. It means AP, just AP. And
it's pronounced F. But it's a word AP. But it's
pronounced F. It's actually used literally, truly.
It means nose. You understand what I'm saying?
Nose. It means nose. And if you look at Erek,
it also means, literally, it's long. It means
long. So if you are going to add the two, literally,
it will mean what? Long nose. You understand
what I'm saying? And actually, you're laughing.
And actually in Hebrew, you understand, that's
actually what it means, literally. Long nose.
Amen. So you see, that word long nose is an idiomatic
expression. It's an idiomatic expression which
translates, and most times when translators were
using it, they now say slow to anger because
in some other places you can translate it as
slow to anger. But it actually means long suffering.
That is, you suffer long. Amen. It's what? You
suffer what? Long. Long suffering. Long suffering.
It means forbearing, that is patience. Long suffering.
Long suffering. That's what it means. So most
times when it is used in regards to God, is a
description of God's patience. Of God's patience.
Is a description of God's patience. So next time
you see Slow to anger. It does not mean You understand
that he gets angry but slowly What he's saying
that he is patient is what long suffering? Let
me show you where that same words appear in some
of the things Exodus 34 Look at the exercise.
This is all let us look at some places Exhaust
34 verse 6 Exodus 34 verse 6. He said, and the
Lord passed before him and what? Proclaim. The
Lord, the Lord God, merciful and gracious. That
what long suffering is that same word. You understand?
I read. long suffering, and abounding in goodness
and truth. And abounding in goodness and truth.
Numbers chapter 14, verse 18. Numbers 14, 18.
The Lord is long -suffering, that's the same
word, and abundant in mercy, forgiving iniquity,
and transgression, but he by no means cleared
the guilty. Visiting the iniquity of the fathers
on the children to the third and the fourth generation.
We have done this study again in this church.
We say that word visiting does not mean that
God keep malice. If your father does something,
he keeps it and wait for the children. When they
come, he punish them. That's not what that means
visiting. We said that what visiting is perquired
which means to what to take care of something
So he's saying I will take care of your iniquity
means that God does not just say That's why he
said he by no means keep clear the guilty me.
You will not just say you go Yeah, yeah forgiveness
means there is a penalty for it But what he does
is to clear or to carry the penalty himself.
That is means by taking care of. Did you understand
what I'm trying to say? Yes. It doesn't mean
that you will keep malice, your father did something
and he will follow you, follow you, follow you
to the other generation and punish your children
for what the fathers did. No. In fact, look at
in the same text what he said to understand that
that's not what it means. Look at verse 31. Look
at verse 31. He said, but your little ones, whom
you set will be victims. So who are the people
who are saying that their little ones will be
victims of what they did? The people themselves,
that is the Israelites, they say our children
will be victims of it. In fact, they have carved
what we call a prover. He said the father will
eat the grapes and the children will what? Did
you understand what I'm saying? So they have
already carved that kind of things. We have done
this study, so I don't want us to go over it
now. But look at it. He said what? that but your
little ones whom you set will be victims eh I
will bring in and they shall know the hand which
you have despised but as for you your carcasses
shall fall in the wilderness that means you are
the one that did the nonsense you are the one
to bear it your children they didn't they didn't
do anything you are the one that said they will
be victims they will not I will take them to
that promised land which you despise. So in the
same text as already clear that one, it's not
saying God will keep malice and visit the children
with the trouble. No. That's why when you read
it, you will now understand in that same context.
That means the Lord is long -suffering. He's
abundant in mercy. He is forgiving. You understand?
Forgiving the iniquity. You understand? And the
transgression. In fact, if you read it, how can
he forgive the iniquity? And then also carry
and follow the iniquity again. In the same verse
can be contradictory if you don't read it correctly.
Are we together? So the point is that no, that
is the Lord is long suffering or slow to anger.
But I would prefer to use the word long suffering.
I mean, maybe the choice of I mean, the translators,
the choice of what they use in the sun is not
actually clear. It would be proper if they use
always long suffering instead of slow to anger.
Amen. Are we together? Nehemiah chapter 9 verse
17. Nehemiah chapter 9. Look at verse 17. He
said, look at it. He said they refused to obey.
Please note that. They refused, talking about
the Israelites, they refused to obey. And there
we are not mindful of your wonders that you did
among them. But they hardened their neck and
in their rebellion they appointed a leader to
return to bondage. That's Numbers. Again, those
are words that have been following us. You understand?
In Numbers chapter 14, you saw after they did
all this nonsense, you understand? They now appointed,
say this man Moses, we don't know where, you
know, let's appoint a leader and return back
to Egypt, you understand? But what did God do?
Did He kill them? You understand? And then the
Bible says, but you are God, ready to do all,
to pardon, gracious and mercy. Slow to anger.
That word again, slow to anger. It means long
suffering. You understand? Abundant in kindness
and did not forsake them. And did not forsake
them. This is the attitude of the Lord that was
revealed to Moses. You understand? And the Lord
made his ways known to Moses. Hallelujah! Yes!
So, I want you to get note of that thing. Even
though the people have rejected God, in fact,
you can imagine, that time they were about to
enter Egypt. Yes, sorry. They are about to enter
Canaan in Numbers 14. You understand? When those
10 people confused them, Those ten spies came
and confused them. Are we together? And say there
are giant in the what? In the promised land and
they cry they say we are going back We can't
die here. You understand? Are we together? That
is a kind of people. God said But you are God
you are merciful. That's the kind of people They
are rebellious people For 30 years remember they
have been rejecting you in the sun. Look at Psalms
86. Psalms 86 verse 15. But you, O Lord, are
God. This one say I God. Full of what? Compassion
and what? Long -suffering. That what again is
the same word, long -suffering. And abundant
in mercy and truth. Go to 1 .45, Psalms 1 .45
verse eight. Psalms 1 .45 verse eight. 145 verse
8. The Lord is gracious, full of compassion,
slow to anger, and great in mercy. Now what again?
Slow to anger is long suffering. Joel chapter
2 verse 13. Joel chapter 2 verse what? Verse
13. So rent your heart and not your garment.
wrong to the Lord your God for he is gracious
and merciful slow to anger and of great kindness
and he relents from doing harm again the word
slow to anger means long suffering let's read
this last text Jonah chapter 4 verse 2 Jonah
chapter 4 verse 2 Let me even read from verse
one. He said, but it displaced Jonah accidentally
and he became angry. Why? He says, so he prayed
to God, to the Lord and said, Oh Lord, was not
this what I said when I was still in my country?
Therefore I fled previously to Tashish. For I
know that you are what? You are gracious and
you are merciful. God Slow to anger that what
again Abundant and long in loving kindness one
who relents from doing harm you see The same
thing to go and preach because he already knew
he knew that are we together? He knew that this
God He will not kill this people, you know, sir.
He knew it That was why I say I will not go because
he think it's a waste of time You know, that's
why some of us were angry that your father is
a loving God. So many believers are angry that
why will God not be harsh, not be a terrible
person? That's how some of us are. That when
you hear he loves even his enemies, he gives
you rain, you understand? You don't like it.
When they say, no, praying fire, let my enemies
die is not a Christ -like prayer. He said, no,
no, no, no. Even David said it. You see the problem?
That's why we say, you see, you do not have a
way of assessing what is true. David is a prophet,
but you are in the reality of what David was
looking for. You are in a standing that the David
of before, you understand, was looking for. That's
why you don't appreciate what you have to do.
You want to go back to the old system, that old
system. of no mercy. Don't we I do you. Why won't
you be listening to these songs? You will definitely
be listening to those songs. God no go versed.
You see that kind of a thing? Amen. Jonah knew
it. And he confirmed it, even when he went grudgingly.
And God did it. He said, you see, I said it.
That is the reason why I wanted to run away because
I know what he will do. We have more better standing
than Jonah. Hallelujah! We go to preach not because
we want to see people suffer. You know some of
us go to preach so that they will not say they
didn't preach. Don't believe you are going to
hell. Hell straight! The way I'm looking at you,
you're going to hell. See the scan of it. Your
message is not the gospel. Go back to that psalm.
Psalm 103. So next time you read the lost soul
in the son to anger. Noda is talking about his
long -suffering. Are we together? He's talking
about what? His long -suffering. Look at verse
9 of that Psalms 103 verse 9. He said he will
not always strike in the son. Now what we ask
is it lies, which means it was just added. It's
not in the original. You will see also his anger
for, that what his anger is also not in the original.
So you could see that he will not always strive,
nor will he keep forever. Are we together? Amen.
Yes. I think we've studied the issue of, okay,
that's in training center. God not striving forever
with man. Are we together? Genesis chapter 6,
right? Yes. We talked about that. Of course,
He keeps calling you, keep calling you. If He
insists on where you want to go, He can't push
you back. Amen. We saw that with Noah, through
Noah, the Spirit of God, keep on what? He was
reaching out to them. for about 120 years preaching
to them. They never repented. There's nothing
they can do. Verse 10, He has not dealt with
us according to our sins, nor punished us according
to our iniquities. Verse 11, as the heavens are
high above the earth, so great is His mercy toward
those who fear Him. As far as the east is from
the east, west. So has He removed our transgressions
from us. And you keep reading. That is a waste
of God revealed to Moses. And Jesus told us clearly
that Moses knew the waste of God. He presented
it to them. They rejected it. That's why Jesus
told the Jews then. John chapter 5. He said,
if you have believed Moses, you would have what?
Believe me, because Moses did what? He wrote
of me. But again, before then, he told them,
I'm not going to accuse you. Moses have done
so. Moses, whom you trust, has accused you. He
has brought a chart that you are a stiff -necked
people. You are a rebellious people. You are
a people who have no faiths. Understand? And
by so he treated you. He treated you as unbelievers.
Why then? Matthew 19. Did Moses offer us access
to give a certificate of divorce? He said, because
of the hardness of your heart. That means there
were things that were introduced because of the
kind of the people. Are we together? We read
last time when we were discussing about the law
of Moses, that the Moses law was given to guard
a people that are terribly rebellious. You know,
the only person, are we together? If you have
a hardened criminal that refused to believe,
I mean, refused to believe the law of the land
and don't want to follow it. He is a hardened
criminal, killing everybody. What do you think
they do to him? They carry him and put him in
a confined place. There are prisoners there.
They don't combine them. They circulate. I mean,
they give them a demication. That's how you do
to a rebellious people. Moses knew that the only
way to guard these people is to bring all kinds
of stiff laws to the guardrails. Sometimes you
are amazed. How did Moses go detail? This is
how you should do. Don't do this. This is how
you should do. Don't do this. He knew the people
he was dealing with. So the law was given to
rebellious people. Me, I said divorce is a way
to protect the rights of the other women. Moses
knew that if he didn't do that, these rebellious
people are terrible. They will destroy the order.
The only way, sir, is to say, okay, you don't
want her, you have her problem with her. just
give us a together a great JJ JJ right JJ let
her go you know sir that's a way he has put certain
things to us but Jesus said in the beginning
it was not so it was introduced because of this
hardness of your heart but Moses knew the ways
of the law he kept telling them look at Hebrews
chapter 11 come with me quickly Hebrews chapter
11 Look at verse 24. In verse 24, he said, by
faith, Moses, when he became of it, he refused
to be called the sons of Pharaoh's daughter,
choosing rather to suffer affliction with the
people of God than to enjoy the passing pleasure
of sin. Look at 26. He said, esteeming. esteeming
the reproach of Christ greater riches than the
treasure in Egypt for he looked to the reward
he looked to the reward esteeming the reproach
of Christ Moses knew God Moses knew the Lord
he left the house of Pharaoh because of what
he knew He really knew the ways of God. He knew
he saw Jesus. So the question is that since Moses
knew these things about God, he knew the ways
of God. The question is that when he wrote and
gave them the law. Who was dealing with these
people? Who was killing the people? He knew the
Lord is merciful. But in the law, there is no
mercy. Who was killing the Israelites? Who disobeyed
the law? We say they die with that mercy. Since
Moses knew the law, that is merciful and gracious.
Abandoning mercy. Who was getting angry? When
they say, and the Lord, and it kindled the anger
of God. Did you understand what I'm saying? Eh?
Oh, you have not been reading. And the anger
of the Lord had been kindled. Who was killing
the people? Who was getting angry? But then,
they are called it that it is God. I don't want
you to forget what we have already said. That
it came, the law came through the instrumentality
of what? Of angels. Are we together? Through
the instrumentality of angels. Quickly, let's
see something before we come. These are questions
I'm answering as we go gradually in the sun.
Who was killing? Who was getting angry? Why did
they write it that way? That it was God that
was angry While he was not the one angry the
son He revealed himself To them you know his
wish He knows that the Lord does not get angry
that is slow in what in mercy he knows Genesis
19 Genesis 19 verse 13. Look at 13. Are you 13?
For we will destroy this place because the outcry
against them has grown great. before the face
of the Lord and the Lord has sent us to destroy
it. This is the angels saying, so who destroys
Sodom and Gomorrah? Oh, are you with me? Are
you with me? Who destroys Sodom and Gomorrah?
Eh? The angels said they were saying to Lord,
get out, quick, quick, quick, quick, quick. We're
going to destroy this place. We're going to destroy
this place because there's an outcry that has
grown great before the face of the Lord. As if
they have seen his face before. What do you say
is his face? The face is a presence, the person
of God. Are we together? No one has seen God
at any time. We have done that and we are coming.
They said we are sent by the Lord. Listen, I
want you to follow me closely That's why I said
you have to because this is trying to address
a lot of things. So that means in the Bible There
are many things prophets said There are many
things angels said There are many things even
angels of God I don't mean evil angels who like
the devil who deliberately is the focus is to
twist the Bible That's not what I'm saying. I
mean the angels of God understand There are many
things liars said. There are many things the
devil said. You understand? So there are a lot
of things that have been said. The question is
that how do you assess which one is true, which
one is not true? If I come like a pastor today,
and that's why we're teaching you something.
If I come like a pastor today and I tell you
something, how do you assess that what I'm saying
is not true? Or is true? How? This is what we
are teaching you. That your faith we risked in
the power of God That is why Paul will see because
he knew that the truth is independent of the
one who speaks the truth That's why he said even
if we come and tell you another gospel He said
consider was who a cost not even he said even
the angels that means he's saying The angels
are not the standard of truth. We ourselves that
teach the truth are not the standard of truth.
Truth is independent of who spoke it. If you
don't understand this, you will get confused
in reading Bible. And many of the mistakes, we
are not saying they are deliberate. Are you together
with me? Even in your life, even though you are
born again, most of the truth you have learned
in life, when you were growing up, the mistake
you have done, It's not that some of the mistakes
are not deliberate. You did it in ignorance.
Now that you have grown you understand. But there
are ones that you know the stubbornness was deliberate.
You knew it. So what we are saying is that there
is a type of lack of understanding that even
the engine of God can say it. Are we together?
Not because it's malicious, but because it's
coming out of ignorance. Are we together? is
coming out of ignorance. So you must have a way
of reading the Bible carefully and assessing
the truth. Are we together? We must have a way
of assessing the truth and thank God we have.
and thank God we have. The days of confusion
of who say what and what say what has passed.
Sometimes the lack, the inability to communicate
or to say the truth. Listen, I've said this often
that the fact that you are accurate does not
mean that you are saying the truth. Did you understand
what I'm saying? And I try always for you to
understand that if you see something written
by angels or by even the prophet, like when you
read the Psalms, we're coming to read the Psalms,
you see all kinds of things and you're wondering,
is it that same prophet that prophesied about
Jesus? That said this, this, this, and this,
and now he's saying this. Listen, David is the
one who seen who he has committed all kinds of
atrocities. And when he's praying for himself,
he said, Lord, you should have mercy on me. Lord,
you should have mercy on me." But now when he's
praying against his enemy, he said, Lord, don't
allow them to die a natural death. Do you understand
what I'm trying to say? The same person, that
means his view of God is somehow, there is no
perfection in his view of God. Understand? That's
why, but if you have a perfection in the view
of God, you know that, that he has no variation.
He has no shadow of turning. You understand?
When he say he love, he doesn't have great love,
small love. Are we together? So if he says he
love the world, his love for the believer is
not different from a non -believer. Because he
does not love small and love great there. Do
you understand what I'm saying? Amen. So that
you will know when you are praying, Lord, I am
the apple of your eyes. You understand? And feel
that the people that are not apple, Yeah, what?
I don't know. And incidentally, because of this
kind of understanding, even us, even in the church,
we have created classes. Do you understand what
I'm saying? Because of this kind of imperfection
of the knowledge we are carrying, we have created
all kinds of cadre and classes in the sun. There
are ones we call, even though we interpret the
wrong way. there are ones we call the anointed
of God there are ones that are not anointed in
the same place oh so that if you are the pastor
see you're joking with me ha ha ha thoughts not
that anointed and do his prophet know how joke
amen our God is a loving God Don't be angry with
your father that he is loving. Are we together?
Don't be angry with your father that is what?
He is loving, he is kind, he is merciful. That
is who he is. He is long -suffering. Are we together?
He is always that. He is always that. Don't be
angry in the son. Be happy because you have a
father that is consistent. Are we together? You
have a father that is consistent. Imagine you
know your dad is unpredictable in your house.
Sometimes when you arrive, you say daddy, he
will give you blow. Or sometimes when you enter,
say daddy, there my daughter, my daughter come.
How do you think you approach your father? You
don't know whether he's mood. That means once
he wakes up from the bed, whatever mood he is,
if you appear and you don't know when you have
the other mood, there is a swinging pendulum.
How do you expect to trust you? There can't be
trust without reliability. Why we say we trust
God is because of his consistency, because his
predictability. We know from start to finish
what we will obtain from him. That's what means
by trust. Even here, once you begin to see somebody
has double tongue, what happened before you?
The trust about that person do or drop. But the
more the person show consistency he become a
friend that means you can trust it you can predict
his actions You can say no, I know him. That's
what means by trust and your relationship becomes
stronger and better Because you know the person
is consistent when we come on When is he we will
continue to see some things that are very important
Even the text we've over read We'll read it and
then assess. What are we going to see? We're
going to see that the perfect standard of truth
is God himself. And he has come in the flesh
that no longer anyone be confused about who he
is. Are we together? I will end with this. Give
me John 5 19. As you go, you know. He said, then
Jesus answered and said to them, most assuredly,
assuredly I say to you, the what? The son can
do nothing of himself. But what he sees the father
do, for whatever he does, the son also, do what?
Does in like manner. Jesus is a standard of truth.
Whatever Jesus did was what God did. Whatever
you did not see Jesus, you understand, God never
did it. Are you with me? Whoever said it, angels,
whoever, whatever Jesus did not do, God never
did it. So I want you to hold this, that hold
Jesus. Who is the light? Move to the territory
of darkness. You are confused about texts of
scripture. Who did it? Who did the Lord do it?
Just hold Jesus. Already He's in you. Walk with
Him through the texts. He is the control. You
know, most of us in science, when you want to
do some tests, we have what we call control.
by which every parameter is tested and every
parameter is interpreted by the control that's
why if you don't have control they will reject
it yes sir right because we have reviewers here
you know sir immediately your walk doesn't have
control once they see they say this is why they
look at you Jesus is the control everything said
about God everything told about God is actually
assessed to him. Thank you Jesus. Share this
message with someone you care about. Until next
time, stay blessed.
