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. In the name of Jesus. Glory to Jesus.
Can we say I have revelational knowledge? I have
revelational knowledge. An understanding of the
name of Jesus. Can we say I have revelational
knowledge? An understanding of the name of Jesus.
Say the name of Jesus works for me always. The
name of Jesus works for me always. Because I
live and move in the name of Jesus. I operate
always in the name of Jesus. Say I know I am
a victorious believer. I know. The power that
is at work in me, that same power that raises
Jesus from the dead, is the same power that is
at work in me today. Say, with this power, I
preach the gospel. With this power, I cast out
devils. With this power, I heal the sick. And
with this power, I live victoriously always.
Glory to Jesus. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. You know,
sometimes, not sometimes, always, right? When
you listen to messages, as we have been taught
and trained, one of the things you should look
out for is that from the teaching, you should
look out for a consistent confession. Do you
know what I just said? You should look out for
a what? A consistent confession as a result of
your understanding of that teaching. Amen? and
then stay with it for a while. Glory to Jesus.
Look out for a what? A consistent confession
from a particular teaching you have been receiving
and stay with it for a what? For a while and
keep declaring it. That's faith that we are receiving
from the message. Amen? So having heard a particular
teaching, having heard a particular sermon, Amen?
For example, we've received a teaching on the
things of the Spirit. Amen? One of the things
I always, you know, I've learned from this meeting,
the signs, wonders, and miracles are happening
regularly in my life and through my life. I will
never forget this reality. No matter how discouraged
I am, signs, wonders, miracles are happening
what? Regularly in my life and through my life.
Glory to Jesus. Hallelujah. One of the things
I'm learning from this teaching is that the name
of Jesus works for me always. The name of Jesus
works for me always. This is a consistent confession
for me. Glory to Jesus. I am in the name. I am
not planning to be in the name. I am not thinking
to be in the name. Glory to Jesus. The name works
for me what? Always. I've never seen anywhere
Peter and the other apostles. Right? When they
are encountered with a particular situation,
they have to sit down and think it or pray it
out or fast it out or reason it out or fear it
out. If there's anyone, let me put this sentence,
or anxiety it out. Before they know, you know,
they think whether the name is going to work
or the name is not going to work. No. Hallelujah.
So the name of Jesus for the believer ought to
be a reality. Hallelujah. A daily reality. A
daily what? Reality. A daily reality. A daily
consistent reality. Glory to Jesus. So always
I have revelational knowledge and understanding
of the name of who? Of the name of Jesus. Glory
to Jesus. Hallelujah. So now, from all that we've
been learning, what we just had on Sunday was
just... Very short, short, short, brief introduction.
Amen. And one of the things that we learned,
we started by saying Jesus. The word Jesus means
what? Jesus in Hebrew, in Greek means what? God's
salvation, right? Which is the same with Joshua.
Amen. Hallelujah. And which is the same in the
Old Testament for Yehoshua. Amen. Or Jehoshua,
which is the same as Jehovah. Or Yehoah. Amen.
Good. So, and we said that word Jehovah, we mean
what? The self -existing one or the eternal one.
So when we say God's salvation, what we are talking
about is the eternal one's salvation. Amen. The
self -existing one's what? Salvation. Is that
clear so far? Is there any confusion so far?
Good. And we also established that before Jesus
the Christ, amen, Before the humanity of Jesus,
we have had people that bore the name Jesus.
And then we looked at Joshua. We looked at Joshua
the priest, amen? We looked at Jesus the justice,
right? Who is also justice, amen? And we have
Joshua also there, amen? Yes, Joshua there is
raising hands. Another Joshua, two of them are
not here, amen? Yes, so before the humanity of
Jesus, there has been the name... Jesus in existence.
After the humanity of Jesus, there has been what?
A name, the use of the name Jesus in existence.
Hallelujah. So, but we said that now, the scripture
will not be talking about the humanity of Jesus
only. You see, I'm using the word what? Only.
Amen. Hallelujah. So, which means that the scripture
will not be talking about the biological name
of who? Of Jesus. Why? Because we read in Matthew
chapter 1, When the angel came, right, he came
and said, his name shall be called Jesus, but
he didn't stop there. Amen? He gave the reason
why his name shall be called what? Jesus. He
said, his name shall be called Jesus, for he
shall save his people from what? From, yeah,
see, so we now see God's salvation there. Glory
to Jesus. Amen? So we also say that now, That
that name Jesus now, from the beginning, Onoma.
You remember we said Onoma can be literal, can
be figurative. Amen? And figurative now talks
about the person's authority, person's office,
person's function, person's position, person's
accomplishment. We remember Onoma, right? Good.
So now, from there now, what did we learn again?
We now spoke about, okay, good. We stop at Matthew
chapter 1. Now, everybody, let's go. Matthew
chapter 1. Matthew chapter 1. So far, so good.
Everybody, we're on the same page, right? Good.
So, Matthew chapter 1 now. Matthew chapter 1,
verse 21. And she shall bring forth a son, and
thou shalt call his name Jesus, for he shall
save his people from their what? Sins. 22. Now,
everybody, see 22. Now, all this was done. What
was done? What was done? Tell me now, what was
done? From verse 21, what was done? Please, can
you stop projecting this? Let everybody look
at this Bible. Maybe we'll see what's just of
this thing. Good. God bless you. I love you.
Yeah, so what was done? Let's look at verse 22.
Now, all this was done that it might be fulfilled
which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet,
saying, Behold, a virgin shall be with a child,
and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call
his name Immanuel. which being interpreted is
God with us. So, 22, now all this was done. What
was done? Okay, she will bear a son. So that
the birth of Jesus, right? So now, the appearing
of the angel and then to speak forth to Mary
regarding what the prophet has what? They have
spoken. So this now is already in fulfillment.
So I remembered on Sunday where we saw the appearing
of the angel to Mary and declaring all that the
prophet has spoken is the fulfillment of the
what? The scriptures. Do we understand? Do we
understand? So which means that if Mary didn't
get an announcement from the angel, right? And
there was no event as relating to the birth of
Jesus. Right? It means that what the prophets
have spoken has not yet been what? Fulfilled.
Are we all here? Good. So, I remember on Sunday,
carefully, we stopped there. You know why? Because
the angel appearing to Joseph, right, was to
fulfill the prophecy by Isaiah. You know, he
said that which was done to fulfill the things
that prophets have spoken. Right? So, we see
Isaiah and other prophets had what? Had spoken.
Amen? And this... is about between 700 and 750
years before Christ came. Amen? So we see a prophetic
saying that has lasted for 750 years. Glory to
Jesus. Glory to Jesus. So now from this, we now
realize that it's not the time in humanity that
will bind or stop no matter how long it takes.
As long as the word has been what? Spoken, it
will have a fulfillment. I just got a word now
in my heart. If you have received an instruction,
our brother said something. We have received
instructions from the believers meeting. Amen.
We have even received instructions from all the
subsequent services that we've had. He says,
so when is it going to get fulfilled? Is it in
the next one week? Is it in the next two weeks?
Is it in the next three weeks? Let me announce
to you. There are certain words that you have
received. You will see their manifestation. In
the natural, in the next 10 years. Glory to Jesus.
So does it mean that if I have not seen it today,
God has lied? No. Habakkuk will say that, Do
what? Wait for it. Hallelujah. He said, For it
is for what? For an appointed time. It shall
speak. Glory to Jesus. We will see the manifestation.
So if you're here, you're doubting, oh, I got
a word. I got, you know, last three covetous
months, I got a word. There are certain words
that we got last 14 years. It's now we are receiving
the reality of those words in the natural. That
does not mean that we have not received them
last 14 years. The fact that you are receiving
the word now and you rejoice, it means that you
have already received the what? The manifestation.
The act of rejoicing validates the receiver of
that word that it has happened in my life. When?
Now. You see, that is what will now sustain your
faith, even in the natural, when things are not
happening or they are not going the way they
should. Hallelujah. That word now that I just
gave now is for somebody. Amen. So even when
you see things in the natural are not going as
the words you have received, still stay. Stay
in faith. Stay consistent in your confession
and stay patient and stay running with the words.
Glory to Jesus. Hallelujah. So that it might
be fulfilled. We said that it's the fulfillment
of the prophecy concerning what? Christ in the
scripture. Isaiah 7, 14. Isaiah 7, 14. Isaiah
7, verse 14. Even though this happened in the
days of King Ahaz, right? But when Isaiah was
giving the words to King Ahaz, amen? He was speaking
forth a prophetic saying regarding the event
that is ahead, that is coming. Hallelujah. So
now, verse 14. Are we there? Let's start reading
from verse 1, very fast. Thou and Shia -Jashub,
thy son, at the end of the conduit of the upper
pool in the highway of the fullest fields, and
say unto him, Take heed and be quiet, fear not,
neither be faint -hearted, for the two tales
of these smoking firebrands, for the fierce anger
of Rezin with Syria and of the son of Ramaliah,
because Syria, Ephraim and the son of Ramaliah,
have taken evil counsel against thee, saying,
Let us go up against Judah and vex it, and let
us make a breach therein. 8. For the head of
Syria is Damascus, and the head of Damascus is
Rezin, and within three scores and five years
shall Ephraim be broken, and it be not a people.
And the head of Ephraim is Samaria, and the head
of Samaria is Malachi. If your son will not believe,
surely ye shall not be established. Moreover,
the Lord spake again unto Ahaz, saying, Ask thee
a what? Ask thee a sign of the Lord thy God.
Ask it either in the death or in the what? Hide
above. But Ahaz said what? I will not ask, neither
will I what? Tell the Lord. See now, verse 13.
And he said, Hear ye now, O house of David, is
it a small thing for you to weary men, but it
will ye weary my God also? See what Isaiah will
say now. Therefore, the Lord himself shall give
you a what? A sign. Amen. And what will happen?
Behold, a virgin shall what? Conceive and bear
a son and shall call his name what? Emmanuel.
Both her and honey shall he eat that he may know
to refuse the evil and chose the good for before
the child shall know to refuse the evil and choose
the good. The land that thou abhorrest shall
be forsaken of both her what? kings, the Lord
shall bring upon thee and upon thy people and
upon thy father's house days that have not come
from the day that Ephraim departed from Judah,
even the king of Assyria. And keep reading and
then you see what prophet Isaiah spoke to king
Ahaz. Amen? This happened in the days of what?
Ahaz. Glory to God. So, but Matthew now will
now write about these prophetic sayings, right?
The fulfillment of Jesus' coming through the
angel. He will write it and quote what? Isaiah.
So that he can be able to now explain the event
that is happening in the present day. Regarding
the prophetic words. Amen. Hallelujah. So Isaiah
spoke this. It happened in their days. Amen.
But when Matthew now will now come. Right. To
speak about Christ's coming. Right. Definitely
he will not write that from his head. Glory to
Jesus. But rather he will speak from where? From
the scriptures. And it will. And this is done.
That it might be what? Fulfilled. Of that which
was spoken by what? By the prophets. Glory to
Jesus. So now. And we now see the word Emmanuel.
Emmanuel means. God with what? God with us. When
you check the Greek. The Hebrew word. You will
see what? God with us. And that means that. God
has become man. To save man. Hallelujah. We say,
and his name shall be called Jesus, for he shall
save his people from their what? Sins. And we
now see, he said that he spoke about what the
prophets have spoken. And in what the prophets
have spoken, we see another word called what?
Emmanuel. Glory to Jesus. And we now realize
that the name of Emmanuel is God with us. So
when we add God with us, and then... He shall
save his people from their sins. We now see what?
God becoming man to save men from their sins.
Is that clear? Does that look like fulfillment
of the prophecy? Glory to Jesus. Good now. So
what are we learning from here now? Right? So
hence we see the name what? Jesus, which means
God's salvation. So when we say God's salvation,
so when we are saying Jesus, God's salvation,
what we are saying is Emmanuel. God becoming
man to save what? To save man. Is that clear?
Is it clear, everybody? Is it clear, Dr. Is it
clear? You are still absorbing it. Is it clear?
Good. Perfect. Good. So now, Luke chapter 1,
everybody. So what we are saying in essence now
is that what? Jesus is God in man to save man.
That's what we are saying. So how are we arriving
at this? We are connecting Matthew, what the
prophets have spoken. And we are connecting,
we are seeing one example from what the prophets
have spoken. Amen? So we are seeing Emmanuel,
we are seeing Jesus. Amen? 750 years back and
then now, the reality of now. Glory to Jesus.
So we are understanding that. Amen? So, and we
have learned here in biblical interpretation
that we don't understand the Old Testament from
New Testament. But we understand the New Testament
from what? From the Old Testament. Glory to Jesus.
I think Pastor Victor talked about that. I think
Pastor Emmanuel also mentioned that. Amen? I
think Pastor Ferraz also mentioned that with
an illustration about movie. I don't know one
of them talked about you want to watch a movie,
part one and part two. Right? Yeah, so you don't
go to Legend of the Seeker, season seven, episode
one, two, three, four. I think it's up to episode
eight or twelve. I cannot remember. I don't know
how you watch it well. And then you now go and
then you now watch season seven. You're not a
legend. You know? Yes. Legends. They will start
from season one. Sit down there and finish it
to seven. That's what we did in first year. And
the school gave us that, guys, you are fools.
You know, finish season one. We locked it. I
still remember we locked it. Everywhere was dark.
Cinema move. You know? Watch 24 hours. Finish
all. When they posted the result on the wall,
it finished us. Asika, remember. I landed from
home. They said they've posted, I know Faculty
of Medicine is the last result that is always
posted. They said they've posted the result.
Ah, everybody. You see, you don't know the way
they posted. Everybody will carry over. They
are on one list. Everybody that pass without
carry over, they are on one list. Just your prayers.
Your prayers is no longer CGPA. Let me be on
the pass list. Because you know, one course will
give you another one year. It's not yet that
you're doing make up, make down. graduation receipts,
graduation, all those things. Yes, I coughed.
They would cough everything. Cough you, cough
you, cough you. No. No 90, you're out. I was
praying. I landed there. I went to the faculty.
As I just checked the pass lists, I saw U08AN1013.
That's my number. You know? And I saw my name.
I said, thank you, Jesus. Thank you, Jesus. I
didn't bother. You know, that's the most important
thing in our whole set. Only 15 of us were on
the past list. You know why I saw that? Then
I now checked CGPA. I saw 2 .89. Then one, prideful
anger came. How now? How? How? Yeah, you understand.
So you can't watch season 7 and understand season
1. So you have to start from what? Season 1 to
understand what? Season 7. Hallelujah. Glory
to Jesus. So now, we've learned that now in this
place. So Luke chapter 1 now, 27 to 33. Everybody,
let's go. So we understand how Emmanuel is and
then Jesus, right? Good, perfect now. So Luke.
Luke chapter 1, everybody. Luke chapter 1 verse
27. See what the scripture says. To a virgin
espoused to a man, let's say it's 26. And in
the six months, the angel Gabriel was sent from
God unto a city Galilee named Nazareth to a virgin
espoused to a man. whose name was Joseph of the
house of David, and the virgin's name was Mary.
And the angel came in unto her and said, Hail
thou that art highly favored. The Lord is with
thee. Blessed art thou among what? Women. And
when she saw him, she was troubled at his saying
and cast in her mind what manner of salutation
this should be. And the angel said unto her,
Fear not. Amen. Mary, for thou hast found favor
with God. And behold, thou shalt conceive in
thy womb and bring forth a son, and they shall
call his name what? Jesus, that is, he shall
be great. Hallelujah. You see, we are reading
from Matthew chapter 1, what the prophets have
spoken in the scriptures, and we see him quoting
a sign from Isaiah. Amen. So we now see Luke
also will read, he will also quote one of the
prophets that have spoken. Amen. We have learned
in this church, when we say the scriptures, what
do we mean? Good, perfect. So he shall be great
and shall be called the son of the highest. And
the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of
his father, what? David. And he shall reign over
the house of Jacob forever. And of his kingdom
there shall be no, what? There shall be no end.
So, we now see Luke now. He's talking about this
event. We're also quoting from what the prophet
has spoken from Isaiah chapter 9. Isaiah chapter
9. We understand how we are moving from New Testament
to Old Testament, right? Good. So, Isaiah chapter
9. Now, everybody verse 6 to 7. For unto us a
child is born, unto us a child is given, and
the government shall be upon his shoulder, and
his name shall be called Wonderful Counselor,
the Mighty God, the Everlasting Father, Prince
of Peace. Of the increase of his government,
does it look like what Luke just said now? Of
the increase of his government and peace, there
shall be no end. Now you see, upon the throne
of David and upon his kingdom, to order it and
to establish it with judgment and with justice
from henceforth even forever, the zeal of the
Lord of hosts will do what? Will perform. this
and it has been performed already. Glory to Jesus.
Hallelujah. Then we now see that same Isaiah
16 verse 5 because he was not only quoting from
one place that the prophets have spoken. And
in mercy shall the throne be established and
he shall sit upon it in truth in the tabernacle
of David. Does it look like where we're coming
from? Amen. Judging and seeking judgment and
hasting what? Righteousness. Hallelujah. Psalms
132 verse 11. Psalms 132 verse 11. Psalms 132
verse 11. The Lord has sworn in truth to David.
He will not turn away from it. I will set upon
your throne the fruit of your what? Of your body.
Jeremiah 23 verse 5. Jeremiah 23 verse 5. Jeremiah
23 verse 5. Behold the days are coming, says
the Lord, that I will raise to David a branch
of righteousness. A king shall reign. and prosper
and execute judgment and righteousness, what?
In the earth. So we see where Luke is also speaking
from what the prophets have what? Have spoken.
Glory to Jesus. So what are we saying in essence
now? Having looked at that so far, we are saying
that the name of Jesus, right? The name of Jesus
will not be in the biological mentioning of the
name. The name of Jesus will not be in the biological
mentioning of his name, but in the accomplishment
of a task. It will not be in the biological mentioning
of his name, but in the accomplishment of what?
Of a task. What task? He will save what? His
people from their what? From their sin. Accomplishment
of a task, which is to save man from... His sin.
Glory to Jesus. Hallelujah. So, Luke 24 now.
The name of Jesus will not be what? Just in the
biological mentioning of the name, but it's in
the what? The accomplishment of a task. Amen.
And what is the task? That he will save his what?
Yes, from their sin. We've seen that now what
the angels have spoken. Amen. And at the same
time also we see the fulfillment. from the prophets,
what they have spoken. Look 24 now, everybody.
Look 24. Look 24. So question is now, accomplishment
of a what? Of a task. Big question will ask,
what task? Amen? So look 24 now. Look 24 verse
25. If you have been here, you know that this
is one of our key anchor scriptures. Then he
said unto them, Where fools and slow of heart
to believe, All that the prophets have what?
Spoken. Ought not Christ to have what? Suffered
these things. Mind you, I said that the prophets
didn't speak about the humanity of Christ only.
Amen. You see, I'm using the word only. Amen.
They didn't speak about the humanity of Christ
only. Right? Because that would not be the point
of emphasis. Glory to Jesus. So it's not the
humanity of Jesus. That they are speaking about
that is the point of emphasis. But rather, the
salvation of man. Glory to Jesus. So now, he
now said, prophets have spoken, 26. What have
they spoken? Ought not Christ to have suffered
these things and to enter into his what? Into
his glory. So let the prophets were speaking
about the center of their message is not that
Christ will be given birth to, right? By a virgin.
Well, rather the center of their message is that
what? Of not Christ to have what? Suffer these
things and to enter into his what? Into his glory.
So that is the summary of all that the prophets
have what? Spoken about Jesus. Glory to Jesus.
Amen. Good. So now we see that also, right? When
we keep reading verse 27, I'm beginning at Moses
and all the prophets. He expounded onto them
in how many scriptures? in all the scriptures,
the things concerning his what? Himself. So which
means, not only about his giving birth, his humanity,
but he spoke primarily about his death, burial,
and what? Resurrection. His suffering. So Jesus
didn't come to make emphasis on his birth. He
said, you know, when Mary gave birth, I was just
conceived in my mom's womb. I was just moving.
I was moving. I remember I had one prophet, you
know, probably you have seen the video. Pastor
Tiki will know the person I'm talking about.
You know? He said when he was in his mother's
womb, he was communicating with her. You know
the man. Before he was given, I said, way, way
before he knew that he was going to come out
as a prophet. He knew this was the things he
was going to be doing. You know? May the Lord
give you understanding. So Jesus is a legend.
So Jesus did come to know his soul. I was just
waiting. I was ticking. At six months, I was
ticking. I was just waiting so that I would just
show them. Jesus expounded to them about himself.
The center of his exposition is, ought not Christ
to have suffered these things and to enter into
his what? into his glory. That's the center of
his exposition to them. Amen? Good now. what
are you saying? 24, 45. Now, then open here their
understanding. 45, 24, 45. Then open here their
understanding that they might understand the
what? The scriptures. And said unto them, thus
it is written, and thus he proved Christ to suffer.
Can you see? And thus it is written. He would
have asked. He would have said, and thus my mother
Mary conceived me. And thus the angel came and
prophesied. Or thus the angel appeared to get
fulfilled the things that the prophet had spoken.
No. But the focus of his message is what? Thus
it is what? Written. So what Isaiah was speaking
about is that thus it is what? Written. Thus
it behoove Christ to suffer and to rise from
the dead the what? Third day. Hallelujah. What
we are seeing Jeremiah is speaking about is that
thus it is written. Amen. What Psalmist David
was talking about is that, thus it is what? Written,
right? And it behoove Christ to suffer and to
rise from the dead, the what? The third day.
Glory to Jesus. Hallelujah. So now, if you observe
carefully, 26 now, verse 26. You see, what Jesus
will say is that, ought not Christ. He didn't
say, ought not what? Jesus. to have suffered
these things and to enter into his word? He said,
ought not what? Christ. 46. He still told them,
thus it is written, and thus it behooved Christ.
But all the places that we read, did we see any
word Christ there? Ask me now. Let's go, let's
go. My time is really moving fast. I don't know
why. Right? Did we see Christ? No. But we see
Christ. Now talking about that it is written
from where? The scriptures. Amen? Glory to Jesus.
So the word Christ, now everybody, let's write
this now. So you know, at these scriptures now,
from where we read that, Luke chapter 24, verse
45, at Isaiah 53. Ah, we need to look at it.
We need to look at it. He said, because I just,
I mentioned that, so we need to look at it. Isaiah
53. You know, Jesus said, it behooves Christ
to have suffered what? These things. And he said,
the prophets spoke about it. So now, 53. What
believer I report, and to whom is the arm of
the Lord revealed? For he shall grow up before
him as a tender plant and as root out of dry
ground. He had no form, no comeliness. And when
we shall see him, there is no beauty that we
should desire him. He is despised and rejected
of men, a man of sorrow. Can you see? A man of
sorrow and acquainted with grief. And we heed
it as it were our faces from him. He was despised
and he was esteemed. And we esteem him not. Surely
he had borne our griefs, suffering, and carried
our sorrows. Yet we did esteem him, stricken,
smitten of God and what? But was it God smitten
him? But he was wounded for our transgressions,
who was grieved for our euclidies. The cessation
of our peace was upon him, and with his stripes
we are healed. And you keep reading until the
end of that chapter. So add another reference
there, 50 verse 6. Isaiah 53, 1 to end. Isaiah
50 verse 6, Psalms 22. Psalms 22. You won't see
Christ there, but Christ is there. Glory to Jesus.
So what is the word Christ? The word Christ,
when you check the Greek word, is Christos. The
word Christ is what? Christos. The word Christ
is what? Christos. And what does Christos mean?
Christos means the chosen one. The anointed one.
The word Christ means what? Christos. The chosen
one. The what? The anointed one. See Matthew
chapter 1 verse 16. Matthew chapter 1 verse 16
says, And Jacob begat Joseph, the husband of
Mary, of whom was born Jesus, who is called what?
Christ, Christos, the chosen one, the anointed
one. Glory to Jesus. Are we there? Christos is
C -H -R -I -S -T -O -S, Christos. And every time
the word Christos is used, or the anointed one
is used, is used in relation to a task. I think
we've learned here in this church, anointing,
anointed, anoint. Amen? Yes, we've learned it.
So when we say anointed, we mean what? You are
separated. You are chosen. You are called out
for a task, for a function. Amen? So Christos,
which means the chosen one, the anointed one,
in Greek now, right? Yes. So we see it now, we
have that now. And when we say Jesus Christ,
every time we shout Jesus Christ, what we are
saying is what? Jesus, the chosen one. Jesus,
the anointed one. To do what? To do a task. And
we are now looking at Jesus talking about the
task in Luke 24 of not Christos, right? To have
suffered these things and to enter into his glory.
that it behooves Christ to suffer, to die, be
buried, and to be what? Raised the third day.
So when we say Jesus Christ or Jesus Christos,
right? What we are saying is that what? Jesus,
the anointed one, who has suffered these things
and have entered into his glory. Is it clear
what I just did now? Is it clear? Or we are saying
Jesus Christos, Jesus Christ, the one. When the
scriptures have spoken about that he will suffer,
right? He will die, be buried and be what? Resurrected
on the what? On the third day. Do we understand
the task? Do we understand? Jesus' assignment
on the earth was specific. Glory to Jesus. And
his assignment, the specification of his assignment
is that he will save men from their what? From
their sin. So every time you shout Jesus Christ,
what you are saying is that what? Jesus, the
anointed one, who has what? Who has been raised
from the dead. Glory to Jesus. Hallelujah. Good
now. So now, how are we coming here? In Hebrew,
you know we just read, we read Isaiah, right?
Isaiah 53, Isaiah 56, and then Psalm 22. And
we didn't see Christos there. Amen? So now, let's
connect it everybody. So in Hebrew, in Hebrew,
that word Christos is the same with Messiah.
Messiah. M -A -S -I -A -H. That word Christos
in Hebrew is the same with the word Messiah.
M -A -S -I -A -H. Which you can also call it
as what? Messiah. Amen? Messiah. Same word. Glory
to Jesus. Are we there? So now, Psalms 2 verse
2, everybody. Psalms 2 verse 2. Psalms 2 verse
2. The kings of the earth set themselves and
the rulers take counsel together against the
Lord and against his what? And against his anointed
Messiah. Same word. When we read, we connect
it to Acts chapter 4. Hold this. Please, if it's
your Bible, put your hand in that place and connect
it to Acts chapter 4, verse 25 to 28. Acts chapter
4, verse 25 to 28. Acts chapter 4, verse 25.
Both Herod and the Pontius Pilate with the Gentiles
and the people of Israel were gathered what?
Together. Can we see? Can we see the connection?
Good. Perfect. Now, so let's look at 2 Samuel
7. 2 Samuel 7 verse 12 to 16. 2 Samuel 7. 2 Samuel
7 verse 12. Am I correct? Yes. And when thy days
be fulfilled, and thou shalt sleep with thy fathers.
I will set up thy seat after thee, which shall
proceed out of thy bowels, and I will establish
his kingdom. He shall build a house for my name,
and I will establish the throne of his kingdom,
what? Forever. Are we all there together? Are
we reading it? Good. Now, let's keep reading.
I will be his father, and he shall be my son.
If he come in, he will be there. I will trust
in him with the word of men, and with the strength
of children of men. But my mercy shall not depart
away from him as I to you from Saul. whom I put
away before thee, and thy house and thy kingdom
shall be established forever before thee. Thy
throne shall be established, how many? Forever.
Then let's look at Luke chapter, okay, we have
read it. Luke chapter 1, verse 32 to 33. He said,
thy kingdom shall be established, what? Forever.
Luke chapter 1, verse 32. You see? And he will
reign over the house of, he will be great, I
shall be called the son of the highest, and the
Lord shall give him the throne of his father,
what? David, same. Now we are reading from 2
Samuel 33. And he will reign for the house of
Jacob. How many? Forever. Forever. He will reign
forever. And of his kingdom there will be what?
There will be no end. Anointed one. Amen? So
now, write this please. Add this everybody. Add
this. Psalms 45 verse 6 to 7. Psalms 45 verse
6 to 7. Psalms 45 verse 6 to 7. And then put,
let me put it the way I wrote it in my notes.
connected with Hebrews chapter 1, verse 8 to
9. Psalms 45, verse 6 to 7, connected with Hebrews
chapter 1, verse 8 to 9. So when I read Hebrews
chapter 1, verse 8 to 9, what I will see is that
I will see what? I will see Psalms what? 45,
6, verse 7 to 8. And then Psalm 16, verse 10.
Psalm 16, verse 10. Psalm 16, verse 10, connected
with Acts chapter 2, verse 25 to 32. Psalm 16,
verse 10. Acts chapter 2, verse 25 to what? 32.
So why are we giving all these extra references?
Don't forget, what are we considering in all
this? We're looking at Christos. And we say in
the Old Testament, right? It's the same, the
anointed one. Let me, right? The anointed one,
Messiah. Who is what? Messiah. Amen? Okay, probably
somebody is waiting to see where they wrote Messiah.
Help us open to Psalms 45, verse 6 to 7. Psalms
45, verse 6 to 7. 7. Okay, this is talking about
the anointed one. Help us check Psalms 16, verse
10. Psalms 16, verse 10. Okay, see, talking about
the holy one, the anointed one. Amen? Okay, good.
So, it's okay. He said now, say, and the Jews.
So, let's know this now. When we say Messiah,
the chosen one, the Jews don't know Jesus, right,
as Jesus. Amen. The Jews, you and I know Jesus
as who? Jesus, the chosen one, right? Whom the
scriptures have spoken about. And he has suffered,
died, raised on the third day, right? Glory to
Jesus. The Jews know that someone has been prophesied
in the scriptures, but they don't know him as
what? Jesus that you know as Jesus the Christ.
They know that somebody that is chosen, a prophet,
right, has been prophesied to our forefathers,
right? And we are waiting for him because who
is the one that will bring deliverance to us?
Amen? So they are waiting for Christ. No, let
me not use the word Christ. They are waiting
for a Messiah because they use it as a Messiah.
They are waiting for a Messiah, right, that will
come and do what? And bring deliverance to them.
So they know the scriptures about Christ. Glory
to Jesus. Glory to Jesus. So, why did I say that
now? I'm saying that because it's important.
Because the idea of Jesus the Christ is the idea
of the chosen one. The anointed one. The Messiah.
The prophet. Because that is what has been written
in the scriptures. When we go to the Old Testament,
you will see Jesus the Christ. You will see Christos
there. Where we keep seeing is the Messiah. We
keep seeing Isaiah will just speak and just speak
plainly about him. You see, when they read Isaiah,
they are reading what has been received from
the old. Glory to Jesus. Hallelujah. Good. So,
John chapter 1 verse 41. Now, let's quickly look
at that. John chapter 1 verse 41. So that we
can put a balance to it. John chapter 1 verse
what? Verse 41. See the conversation there everybody.
Then he found his own brother Simon. Amen. And
said unto him, we have found the who? We have
found the who? This word, he is using this word
from the Old Testament. Amen. We have found the
Messiah who is being interpreted to be the what?
The Christ, the chosen one, the anointed one.
And he brought him to Jesus. And when Jesus beheld
him, he said, Thou art Simon, the son of Jonah.
Thou shalt be called Cephas, which is by interpretation
a what? A stone. John 4 .25. John 4 .25. The
woman said unto him, I know that the Messiah
wrought comets. This knowledge is from where?
The scriptures. So the Jews know about the Messiah
coming. From where? From the scriptures. So they
are not ignorant of the scriptures. Amen? He
said, who is called Christ? The same from where
we read now. Right? Chosen one. When he is come,
he will do what? He will tell us what? All things.
So they know that the Messiah is coming. And
when he comes, he is going to do something. Glory
to Jesus. So when he comes, there is a task he's
going to what? He's going to accomplish. Glory
to Jesus. Good. So are we there? So now, so far
so good. We now know when we say Christos, Jesus
the Christ, what we mean is that what it represents
is function, is assignment. Glory to Jesus. His
function is what? His assignment. Hallelujah.
So now, John chapter 1, verse 19 to 31. Let's
quickly now see also an additional evidence from
there. John chapter 1 verse 19. See everybody
now. Everybody, let's do it. And this is the
record of John. When the Jews, you remember I
said the Jews know about these prophetic saints,
right? When the Jews sent priests and Levites
from Jerusalem to ask him, who are thou? And
he confessed and denied not. But confess. What
did he say? I am not the what? The Christ. You
see, they are not coming with an ignorant information.
They are coming with an information from the
scriptures. He said, and they ask him, what then?
Adow Elijah. They already know about Elijah.
Amen. Adow Elijah. And he said, I am not. Because
they know that somebody ought to come. Right?
That he will be in the spirit of Elijah. This
question is a scriptural question they were asking.
Amen? Are thou Elijah? And he said, I am not.
Are thou that prophet? And he answered what?
No. Amen? Then they said unto him, Who art thou?
That we may give an answer to them that send
us. What sayest thou of thyself? He said, I am
the voice of the one crying in the wilderness.
So they expect that also when that Christ comes,
one of the things he'll be doing is that what?
He'll be, yeah, good. So you're with me. Nor
Elijah, neither that what? Prophets. 26, everybody.
John answered them saying, I baptize with water,
but there standeth one among you whom ye know
not. He, it is him, who coming after me is preferred
before me, whose shoes latched I am not worthy
to unloose. These things were done in Batebarad,
beyond Jordan, where John was baptizing. The
next day John said, Jesus coming unto him, said,
Behold the Lamb of God, who taketh away the sin
of the world. This is he whom I said, after me
cometh a man who is preferred before me. for
he was before me. Hallelujah. So these speaking
are not speaking only of the scriptures, but
they are also speaking of revelation now. John
the Baptist is not only speaking about what?
The scriptures. He is also speaking from what?
Revelation. 31. I knew him not, but that he should
be made manifest to Israel, therefore I am come
baptizing with what? With water. And John bear
record saying, I saw the spirit descending from
heaven like a dove, and it abode upon him. And
I knew him not. See now, everybody, that's why
I told you from Revelation. But he that sent
me to baptize him with water, the same said unto
me, upon whom thou shalt see the Spirit, what?
Descending and remaining on him, the same is
he who baptize with what? With the Holy Ghost.
The priests are looking for a Christ that baptize
with water. John is talking about this Christ
baptize with what? With the Holy Ghost. So he
wasn't speaking from scriptures only, right?
Because you saw his deliberation. Are you Elijah?
He said no. So he has an understanding of who
Elijah was. Are you the prophet? That prophet?
He said, I am not what? That prophet. But there
is one. He stands among you and you know him
not. But the one that has sent me said, when
you see the spirit descend upon him, you will
know him. Because he is the one that baptized
with what? With the Holy Ghost. So, upon... the
tax Jesus will fulfill on the earth, there will
be a releasing of what? Of the Holy Ghost. So
what we are saying is that, thank you, Holy Spirit.
What we are saying is that the giving of the
Holy Ghost is also the benefit, right, of the
name of Jesus. So right is somewhere. Right is
somewhere. Right is somewhere. Whoops. Are we
all here, everybody? So where did that place?
They asked him, are you that prophet? Amen? Are
we all here? They asked him, are you that prophet?
Right? So, Deuteronomy chapter 18, verse 18 to
19. I think we have had that discussion in this
church, I think in the cell meeting. Deuteronomy
chapter 18. Deuteronomy chapter 18, verse 18
to 19. I will raise them up a what? Prophet from
among their brethren, like unto thee, and will
put my words in his mouth, and he shall speak
unto them. all that I shall command him, and
it shall come to pass that whosoever will not
hearken unto my words, which he shall speak in
my name, I will require it, what? This is the
prophet they are waiting for. The prophet that
will be raised from where? From among them. So,
how are we corroborating this? Acts chapter 3
verse 22. You can put your hands in that Deuteronomy
and open to Acts chapter what? Acts chapter 3
verse 22. So far, so good. Is there clarity?
Good. Acts chapter 3, everybody. Verse 22. See,
for Moses truly said to the fathers, the Lord
your God will raise up for you a prophet like
me from your brethren. Him shall you what? Hear
in how many things? In all things, whatever he
says to you. Continue, continue. And it shall
be that every soul who will not hear the prophet
shall be utterly destroyed from among them. Same
astronomy, right? Good. Next verse. Yes, and
all the prophets from Samuel and to those who
follow as many as have spoken have also foretold
which day is the days of Jesus. Amen? So which
means this saying was about who? Christ. Next
verse. You are the sons of the prophets and of
the covenant which God made with our fathers,
saying to Abraham, And in your seed all the families
of the earth shall be what? Shall be blessed.
To you first, God, having raised up his what?
Servant Jesus. So where is the prophet from Deuteronomy
that Moses spoke about? Good. So now, send him
to bless you in turning away every one of you
from their what? From their iniquities. He shall
save his people from their sins. He came to turn
away every one of them from their what? From
their iniquities. The same assignment. Glory
to Jesus. Acts chapter 7, verse 37. Acts chapter
7, verse 37. See, same. This is that Moses who
said to the children of Israel, the Lord your
God will raise up for you a prophet like me from
your brethren, him you shall what? Here, just
give us that 8 and we'll stop there. This is
he who was in the congregation in the wilderness
with the angel who spoke to him on Mount Sinai.
Can you see? And with our fathers, the one who
received the living oracles, what? And I've given
it. to us. Glory to Jesus. So we understand where
we're coming from, right? Is that clear so far?
Yeah, so the same thing now, we now see Luke
chapter 4 verse 17. You can add that as an extra
scriptures now. Luke chapter 4 verse 17. And
probably we might just stop here. Luke chapter
4 verse 17. Ah, this thing is going very slow.
Slow and steady. Are we on the same page, everybody?
You'd so. You know, Let me use one word that
one of the people I follow say. I don't want
to be taken up like a tornado, you know, and
just be moving at 240 kilometers per hour. You
know, and then we leave this place more convinced
than we came. May the Lord give us understanding.
Luke 4, 17. And there was delivered unto him
the book of the prophet Isaiah. And when he had
opened the book, he found a place where it was
written. Can you see? He found a place where
it was what? The spirit of the Lord is upon me
because he had anointed me to what? To preach
the gospel to the poor. He has sent me to heal
the brokenhearted, to preach the deliverance
to the captive and the recovering of sight to
the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised.
Pastor Ferrer taught us explicitly on this now.
To preach the acceptable year of the Lord and
he closed the book and he gave it to, again to
the minister and sat down. And the eyes of all
of them, That we are in the synagogue. We are
fasting on him. And he began and said unto them.
This day. This scripture. Is fulfilled in your
what? In your ears. And all bear him witness.
And wonder at the gracious words. Which proceeded
out of his mouth. And they said. It's not this
Joseph's son. And he said. Surely. Say unto me
this proverb. Physician, heal thyself. Whosoever
we have heard done, whatever you have heard done
in Capernaum, do also here in this country. However,
after all these things, this thing put Jesus
in trouble. Amen? Hallelujah. Good. So, I say,
I tell you, many widows were in Israel this day,
Elijah, when the heaven was shut up three days
and six months, when gravedown was throughout
all the land, but unto none of them was Elijah
sent unto what? Serapta, a city of Sidon, unto
a woman. That was a what? Widow. And many lepers
were in the usual time. And all day in the synagogue
when they had these things, they were filled
with what? With wrath. Like, come on, Joseph's
son. How can you say this scripture is fulfilled
and you are the one? This scripture is fulfilled
on you. You know, you see, Jesus didn't read
that scripture as though he was reading Isaiah.
He read it as this is the reality. Do you know
what it means? Maybe. If you read it like he
said, and the scripture is fulfilling your ears,
it will look as though he was just saying a very
light word. Do you know what they are understanding
from that statement, the scripture is fulfilling
your ears? What he said that, the fulfillment
of that scripture from Isaiah. And that is why
they were filled with what? With rot. And they
want to accord him with his biological origin.
Is he not Joseph's son? So why would Joseph's
son say that the spirit of the Lord, is upon
him. And he has anointed him to preach Christos.
He has anointed him to preach who he sees. Do
you understand where Jesus is coming from? You
understand? So that is why you see they are filled
with Joseph's son. Come on, you must kill him.
Yes, blasphemy. They sent him out of the synagogue.
Jesus too was smart sometimes, you know. See,
he would just go in between them and even though
his ministry would be cut short. You know, one
of my friends told me they went out to do evangelism
in Turkey, you know, and then some group of Muslims
just blocked them, you know, and told them that
they should deny Christ. They were trying to
argue first. They slapped him. He said he denied
it. Life story. They know him. He denied though.
At least so that they will allow him to go. Most
souls are waiting. Oh my God. Hallelujah. So,
let's stop here now. Please write this and then
we'll stop here. So, so far so good. We say Christos,
right? So far so good. Yes, we are having a good
anchor on all that we are doing. Amen. So, what
we are saying now is that Christ, Christ is the
promised one spoken of in the scripture. You
know, we just read Luke chapter 4, right? And
he established that I am the one, the anointed
one, right? So, what we are saying now is Christ
is the promised one spoken of in the scripture.
And when we say spoken of in the scripture, we
mean prophesied by, by the prophets in the what?
In the scriptures. What we are saying is that
Jesus is the one spoken of in the scripture who
was to come. Hallelujah. Glory to Jesus. So we
now see we cannot just be referring to his biological
name. Amen. This man wanted to accord Jesus from
his biological origin. So yet they didn't know
what he was speaking about. Amen. Hallelujah.
So, Luke 24, 44. Luke 24, 44. We are still talking
about the name of who? The name of Jesus. So
far so good. Is there clarity? 44. And he said
unto them, These are the words which I speak
unto you while I was yet with you, that all these
things must be what? Fulfilled. Which were written
in the law of Moses, and in the prophets, and
in the Psalms, concerning who? Concerning me.
So which were the things? What are the things
that were fulfilled? The things that were fulfilled
in 46, right? Christ has suffered. Christ has
died. Christ was buried. And then Christ is resurrected
from the dead. The what? The third day. All these
things ought to be what? Fulfilled. And these
are the things that have been fulfilled concerning
who? You remember I said that Christ is teaching
them all these things from resurrection. Glory
to Jesus. It's after he has been raised from
the dead that all these expositions. are coming
to them hallelujah good now so why are we reading
this place now because i want us to write a big
topic now the resurrection of jesus but you see
this is where now we are getting much more into
the depth of the name of jesus the resurrection
of who the resurrection of jesus and don't forget
if he says or not these things and he said the
scripture i've spoken about it which means that
the scripture i've spoken about his resurrection
right So we're going to see resurrection from
where? From the Old Testament. Amen. So now that
will make more sense to us when we now connect
to his resurrection, the fulfillment of the resurrection
in the New Testament. Because out of that resurrection,
we now see the manifestation of the power in
the name. Hallelujah. Then from there, we now
get more understanding. Amen. Yeah. So when we
come by God's grace. We are going to start carefully
from Exodus chapter 6 verse 3. Exodus chapter
6 verse what? Verse 3 and then Genesis chapter
12 verse 1. These two places, Exodus chapter
6 verse 3 and Genesis chapter 12 verse what?
Verse 1. So we know what Jesus is. We know. Give
us that Genesis. Exodus 6 verse 3. Exodus 6 verse
3. Give us that Exodus 6 verse 3. Exodus 6 verse
3. And I appeared unto Abraham, unto Isaac, and
unto Jacob by the name God Almighty. But my name,
what? Yehoah. What is Yehoah? Joshua, which is
the same as Jesus. But by my name, Yehoah, was
I not known, what? To them. Hallelujah. So when
we come, we'll catch it up from here. Build on
Genesis 12, 1. Amen. And then... We see how the
Holy Spirit will continue to help us. Can we
just appreciate God, everybody? Can we thank
God? Can we just thank God, everybody? We appreciate
you being here today. We hope you carry this
word with you throughout your week. Don't forget
