Good morning.0:21Okay, see how many people we can0:23mobilize today. It's so cool. It's cool0:26to see a lot of people join in the0:28morning time. Are you guys crazy? Is0:30that why? That's so funny. Is it because0:33you guys are psycho? I'm just kidding.0:36Just kidding. Imagine. Yes. Is wild.0:39Good morning. All righty, guys. Let's0:41ask our questions. I'm ready for it. I'm0:44ready for all of your questions, guys.0:46I'm ready. But make sure okay that when0:50you're asking your questions you guys0:51are are ready to also be listening0:54because I may answer another person's0:56question by0:59you know answering your question right1:02can you explain the difference in why1:05people get confused with growing in1:06faith and sanctification being a process1:09yes because most of the time people look1:11at themselves as the spiritual markers1:13for their growth. What I mean by that is1:17they look to themselves. Oh, I'm1:20sanctified or being sanctified because I1:22don't watch as much porn. Oh, I'm being1:25sanctified because I don't once struggle1:27as much as I used to. So, they judge1:29based off of that. But that in itself is1:31a deception. You're never supposed to1:34look at yourself and your spiritual1:35growth and measure it by your own eyes1:38and your own standard or your own1:40feelings or your own thoughts. Do you1:42guys understand what I'm saying? If you1:44sit here and you think you're a good1:47person and you're growing because you1:49feel better and you think you're doing1:51good, that's like a person who's saying1:53I'm healthy and not going to the doctor1:56to make sure that they're healthy. They1:58may have cancer. Sometimes you don't1:59even feel it, right? So why do people2:03get confused in their growth and their2:05spiritual walk is because they are2:08literally judging it by themselves. They2:11put on the stethoscope. They put on the,2:14you know, heart monitor and they go,2:17"Hey, I feel fine. I my heart sounds2:21good." And then they diagnose2:22themselves. Spirituality is never2:25diagnosed by a person. It's diagnosed by2:27the Bible, right? Which is the word of2:31God, which is the Holy Spirit, which is2:32Jesus. It's never a feeling. But again,2:36because people trust their feelings un2:39unbeknownst to them, they think that2:42their feelings is the standard. Every2:44one of us in here is guilty of this.2:46Respectfully,2:47we all think, "Well, I'm doing pretty2:49well today. Oh, wow. I notice I'm not2:51even getting as frustrated. Oh, wow. I'm2:53not gossiping that much anymore. Oh,2:55wow. I'm not Then we start to think, oh2:57yeah, see, I'm growing." So, what are2:59you measuring your growth in? The word3:02that says that your your growth is in3:04his hands. that he will finish the work3:06that he started or are you measuring3:08based off of your eyes and what you see?3:10And if so, are we supposed to be walking3:12by faith or by sight? Which one?3:15Probably by faith. So even when you3:17don't see any growth, you're supposed to3:19say, "Yes, I'm grown because God already3:21said so." Understand guys? So that's the3:25reason why people get misconstrued and3:27things get convoluted as we say is3:30because they're like, "Oh, I think I'm3:32doing good. Amen. and I'm doing good. I3:35don't think I'm doing good, then I'm not3:36doing good. Okay, but where's Jesus and3:39what he said about all of this? It3:40sounds like it's Mises. Amen. Right.3:43Good morning, pastor. What Paul mean3:45with Romans 2:4 that the goodness of God3:47leadth thee to repentance? True3:49repentance is not this self-righteous3:53morality. True repentance is, you know,3:57God is actually putting us back and4:01reestablishing us to the word of God,4:05right? So, metaninoia means to not only4:08change your mind, but to transcend your4:10mind. That is what repentance is, right?4:13It's not a guilt trip or emotional4:15breakdown. It's a shift in who you trust4:18and what you trust. So, you go from4:20trusting yourself to trusting God.4:23That's what God's love does for us. The4:26goodness of God is this, right? True4:29repentance is not crying over your sins.4:32It's changing your mind about what sin4:35is and where that sin was placed onto4:38even when you've committed it. [snorts]4:40Right? So Paul's not saying you should4:42be, you know, you should feel bad4:44because God is kind, right? And you4:46messed up with him. No, he's saying if4:49you really understood his kindness, you4:51would trust his kindness. You would stop4:54trusting your kindness, your your good.4:57If you really understood his good, you4:59would stop trusting that you're good5:01altogether. Right? Understand? The5:04kindness of God, the goodness of God5:07doesn't lead you to fear. It leads you5:09to faith. Right? And so, you have to5:12surrender. Right? So yes, fear can5:15temporarily restrain your behavior and5:17stop you from doing certain things.5:19Sure, I agree. But that's temporary.5:21Only grace can transform the heart5:23though, right? So yeah, this verse is5:27specifically I would say to destroy the5:31prideful and the performative, meaning5:33the people who are, you know,5:35conditionally faith, conditionally works5:38based, conditional faith, as we say,5:40right? Hey pastor, I'm I've been dealing5:42with thoughts of being pathetic to be in5:46the situation I'm in. How can I5:49biblically get out of that by believing5:51what's biblically said about you? Are5:54you guys pathetic or are you guys5:56prophetic? Right? Meaning prophets, you6:00know, priests, high priest, right? The6:03Bible says that in Hebrews that we are a6:05royal priesthood is a royal person6:08pathetic. No. So to people who have that6:11heart posture, they need to believe the6:14word of God. And what does the word of6:16God say? It says that you're not6:18pathetic. You're literally a6:23preacher of God, a follower of God, a6:26child of God. Right? Again, you'll only6:28feel pathetic if you trust yourself.6:31Because God's not saying you're6:32pathetic. God, yes, knew you were6:34pathetic. Knew you were evil, but then6:36sent Jesus, right? You have to believe6:38in that. But to people who think they're6:40all that, you have to believe you're6:42pathetic. [laughter]6:43Understand? It's all heart posture, by6:45the way. Right? It's all heart posture.6:48Okay, guys? So, to some people, you6:51break them down. To some people, you6:52build them up. How do you know? Heart6:54posture. Heart posture. Okay. Do we have6:58Bible class today? We do not have Bible6:59class today. I have to go and take my7:01mom to I have to take her actually at7:0412:45 to to go and to get her blood7:08drawn. So yeah, let's keep pushing here.7:10Is it biblical when people always say,7:12"What would Jesus do?" Technically, yes.7:15Yes. Yes. How to step out of performance7:18mode just by believing that you're7:22not obtaining salvation through7:25performance. That you're not good. And7:28that your good can never equate to God's7:30good. Right? Why do other teachers say7:32KJV isn't accurate? I don't know. I7:35don't know what's in the mind of other7:36people to be honest with you guys. I'm7:38not trying to be snarky or sly or7:40whatever. I just don't know why. I I I I7:43have a hunch and I think it's because7:45they don't actually do their research.7:47And researching is not just going on7:49Google by the way. I don't think they7:51actually look at the original maseretic7:53text and the Texas receptus. And I don't7:57even think they do. I think their mind7:59is already well NIV is really nice. I8:02searched in Google that ESV is most8:04accurate. So, I'm going to spin every8:06narrative to match that and I'm going to8:10mold everything to match that. Right?8:13It's it's it's kind of like like the8:16girl who's like infatuated by a gang8:18member and everybody around them is8:20telling them, "Yo, this dude is8:22literally using you." And the girl, some8:24of you guys were this, you know, is8:26like, "No, he's not. He loves me. He's8:28different with me. You guys don't know.8:30He's different." Like your mind is8:31already set on like I want that, right?8:34So how are you going to sway anything?8:37Like that one guy who came in the other8:39day, right? He was like he was like,8:41"Convince me that you're not all about8:43the money. I mean, you already made your8:44mind up." To him, I literally said, "I8:46can't. I literally can't. If your mind8:49is made up that Johnny Chang is a8:51heretic and he's arrogant and he's8:52stupid, he doesn't know what the hell8:53he's talking about, what the hell am I8:55going to do to change your mind?" Shine8:57the light. How How often has that worked8:59out? Honestly, guys, right, you guys can9:02clearly see. I mean, anybody with half a9:04brain can see I'm studied. I'll back9:07everything up with scripture, quote it9:08right off the top, and definitely more9:10studied than people who challenge me,9:12right? Clearly, but they don't care.9:16That doesn't matter to them. It's the9:18same with the Pharisees. They sit there9:21and they saw Jesus do miracles like walk9:24on water. They saw him heal people in9:27front of them and they still made an9:29excuse. No, no, no, no, no, no. That's9:31witchcraft. He is He's using the power9:33of Beaslebub. He's a demon, guys. It9:36he's right there in your face showing9:40you everything. Do you understand?9:41Right? Make sense? Understand? Right.9:45Hey, if you guys are new, please watch9:47and read the main stage rules. It's on9:50the side here, right? Because it's it's9:53really important to really go through9:54that, guys. Right. I mean, if you're9:57just if you're just doing this, you9:59know, 247, right? Right. Right. Guys, I10:02mean, it's like you're not even trying10:05to listen to what we're actually10:06answering from the core. Right.10:08Understand what I'm saying? Right.10:10Respectfully, right? So, so let's let's10:12at least listen to what a person has to10:15say. Amen. Is that is that too much? Am10:18I being mean, guys? Is that too much to10:21ask? That potentially what I'm doing is10:24actually answering your question10:25already. Right? [clears throat] Make10:27sense? Right? So, first and foremost,10:30guys, let's think about this for a10:31second. Okay? Do you think I was talking10:33to someone yesterday, a sister, right?10:36And she was saying that when she was10:37sleeping that around a certain time,10:40she'll have a nightmare and she'll wake10:42up and she'll be half asleep awake10:45awake, right? Semi awake. And around the10:49foot of her bed and even to the side of10:51her bed is filled with small gremlin10:54demons. And what they keep whispering to10:56her is don't go back to sleep. Don't go11:00back to sleep. Don't go back to sleep.11:02This is what this lady was expl11:04expressing to me, right? She says every11:07night. And because of this, she gets11:09only about 1 to 3 hours of sleep a11:12night. Pretty pretty scary, right? Would11:14you guys agree? But what I told her was11:16if you think about it deeply, right?11:19Think about this deeply. Do you guys11:21think that demons would just do that to11:25you? Let's think about that for a11:27second. You think a demon would go,11:30"Hey, let's just say, don't go to sleep.11:33Don't go to sleep. Don't go to sleep."11:35Yeah. Let's stop her from sleeping. No,11:39I think demons would be like, "Let's11:40make her sleep forever and kill her."11:42Don't you think? I mean, honestly, don't11:45you guys think you think they would just11:46stand right there and and these are11:49lustful demons, hateful demons,11:51murderous demons? You think they're11:53going to sit there and go, "I'll let you11:55slide tonight." Think about it. It's a11:58It's a It's a simple like taking a12:01little bit of thinking to realize,12:02right? Think about it, right? You think12:05that they're just going to sit here and12:06play with you? Honestly, sure they will.12:09I'm sure they will. But what do you12:11think they ultimately want to do? They12:12want to kill you. Why aren't they12:14killing you? I'm just I'm just I'm just12:16wondering. Why won't they kill you right12:18then and there if they could? Do you12:20know why? Cuz they can't understand.12:23They can't. You think they're going to12:25sit there and just move things around in12:26your house? Move stuff around or even12:30snarl at you, which they will. I know12:33you guys have seen that. Damn it. Yeah,12:35I know some of you guys experienced12:37that. I've even experienced that. Right.12:39You think that's all they're going to do12:41in Serio? You think that's it, right?12:43You think they're going to make a12:44conjuring type of visit to you guys? You12:47think they're just going to possess12:49Annabelle the doll? They'll kill you.12:51Are you kidding me? Do you know who12:53Satan is, guys? Satan has the power of12:56death. He wants to kill you. Think about12:59that for a second. Before you sit there13:01and start crying and getting scared, do13:04you know what the real power of a demon13:05is? It's not death. Their real power is13:09making you think that they have real13:10power. That's their real power. The real13:13power of Satan and any demon and his13:16minions is that they make you think that13:19they have power over you. So what do you13:21do? I'm demonically oppressed right now.13:24Yes, got them. Distraction is deception.13:28Understand? Distraction is deception.13:31Rebuke them all they all you want. But13:33how do you rebuke them though? In Jesus'13:36name, I rebuke you. Sure, it might work13:38and they'll go away. Sure. But how do13:40you make them fully go away? How do you13:42become delivered by Colossians 1:13?13:46I'll show you. I'll show you right now.13:48Are you guys under demonic oppression13:50and depression and possession? Let's13:53see. Or are you under what the Bible13:55says? Let's see. Who hath delivered past13:58tense us from the power of darkness? Hm14:04interesting.14:07So he has already delivered us from14:10what? The power of the darkness. Well,14:12we know it's not God. It's the unholy14:14spirit. Satan has translated meaning14:17transferred us into the kingdom of his14:21dear son. Interesting. Are you guys14:24delivered or do you need deliverance?14:26Does it? Oh, ye of little faith. You14:29scary children. I'm sorry. So scared for14:33what? It really frustrates me. Why?14:36Because the enemy is at large scaring14:39everybody. Scaring all of you guys. Do14:41you guys not know that fear is not from14:43God? That God has not given us a spirit14:46of fear. So when you feel fear, what do14:48you think that is? Let's think about14:50that for a second. I'm sorry. We need to14:52be chastised sometimes. Where do you14:54think that's coming from? It's literally14:56called a spirit of fear. And notice how14:59he doesn't say given us fear. Fear is15:02from the evil spirit, guys. That's what15:05it means. Understand? Not a feeling of15:08fear. It's a spiritual warfare. When you15:12feel fear, where do you think it's15:14wrong? I'm not saying it's wrong to feel15:15fear. Okay? You have to know one thing.15:18Oh, I'm under attack right now. And15:21those big brain people who have no15:22lexiconical knowledge, but what does15:25fear the Lord mean? I know guys, it's15:28coming. Don't worry. I'm going to answer15:29that too. Right. I'm going to answer15:32that too. Don't worry. Okay. But what15:33does fear of the Lord mean then? This15:35guy said, "Don't have fear." Right?15:37Understand? Don't worry. It's coming. I15:39will I will I will I will do it for you15:41guys. Okay? Right? Make sense? The word15:43for fear, right? Is not what you think15:46it is, right? Make sense? The word for15:49fear is yare, which means to revere, not15:53fear. Do you guys know reverence is?15:55Here we go. Heavenly Blaze acting up15:57again. Here we go. Here we go. Here we16:00go. Here we go. Heavenly. Here we go.16:02All righty. Right. So, what I'm saying16:05is, guys, it means to respect.16:07Understand, guys? Right. Obadiah in16:11first kings, y feared the Lord greatly.16:14What? He's scared of him? No. He feared16:17him by revering him. had a sense of awe,16:20a respect, an honor towards the true16:24figure of authority. Understand, right?16:27Make sense, right? Make sense? Yeah.16:30Hey, you can Cherry City, you can spam16:33all you want. See, see how I answered16:35your question and it's still basically16:38Right. Right. It's still my own thoughts16:40and my own experiences.16:47Hey, if you're enjoying this episode, I16:49have a whole other video episode on all16:51platforms, YouTube, Spotify, Instagram,16:54all that every single Monday.

I hope you guys can tune in.17:13And we made this for you guys. So,17:15please enjoy.17:17[music]17:22Are you delivered or not? The Bible is17:25very clear. Let's read it one more time.17:27Ella says, "Please post it." Colossians17:301:13. Let's see. So, aside from all the17:32other stuff, right? Aside from all the17:35other stuff, let's just read what17:38scripture says. Stop reading. Oh, the17:40the my pain comes from my eyebrows down17:42to my back and let's just let's just17:44read the scripture. Let's read the17:47scripture. Right. Right. No, they're not17:49here to distract. I I can see that they17:51genuinely want to learn. So, don't make17:53those claims, guys. Be cautious. Okay.17:56We We can't be like that. And every one17:58of us is like this too at one point.18:00Answer my question. Answer my question.18:02Answer my question. So, let's read the18:03scripture. Okay. Ella posted it. Who has18:06delivered? I'm delivered. Delivered past18:10tense from the power of darkness. Guys,18:14stop trusting your thoughts. Listen18:16carefully to me. What does the word say?18:18Are you delivered or not? Or is God a18:20freaking liar? If he is, rip up your18:22Bibles and burn it. There's no reason18:24to. There's no reason to believe him if18:27he's lying. So, let me ask you one more18:29time. Let's fight with the thoughts18:31today. Did he deliver us or not? Or is18:34he a lying old man? Crusty old man in18:38heaven. A sky daddy as we say. Is sky18:41daddy lying? Is he a liar? Is he stupid?18:45Honestly, why would he say you have been18:48delivered and not deliver you? He's a18:51liar then. No, he's a liar. No, no, no.18:54That's what you guys are saying. So own18:56it then. Say it with your mouth right18:58now. God is a liar, is he? Then why are19:00you saying that then? I know. I know.19:03But I'm still feeling it in my eyebrows.19:06I'm still feeling these things. I'm19:08still seeing the demons every day. I19:10feel it. Okay. And that's not a lie. So,19:12it's funny how fear is faith in reverse.19:16Fear is faith in reverse. You're19:20trusting the unholy thing. You know, if19:22you use the same amount that you trusted19:25those freaking demons that are lying to19:27you and redirected it and pivoted it19:30towards God, do you know how powerful19:32you would be? Do you know how powerful19:34you would be? No, but instead we are19:37fear faith in [snorts] reverse. We don't19:40we reverse our faith. And when you don't19:42trust in God and you trust the person19:44who brings darkness and fear, well,19:46guess what? Of course, you're going to19:49be fearful. Understand?

Doesn't matter23:05what the faith I said in front of it.23:07Does it matter that all of you guys23:08supported me, all of you guys donated,23:12all of you guys listen? No. As my23:16Australian people say, ner. Okay. No, it23:21doesn't. Right. Because the butt negates23:25everything in front of it. So, stop23:26telling me your butts. Unless it's but23:31God. When God uses but it's such a23:35beautiful thing. Ellis says, "Pull up 123:38Corinthians 6 9 and 10." Only 9 and 10.23:41Poor poor favor. Hola hablas hespanol.23:46No, I'm just kidding. Pull up 123:49Corinthians 6 verse 9 and 10. Now we're23:52coming to Sydney. Yeah, we're coming to23:55Sydney and Bris in Melbourne. We're23:58coming. Just kidding. All right, let's24:01look here. Okay, let's read it24:02carefully. Okay, watch, watch, read this24:04carefully with me. Know ye not that the24:06unrighteous shall not inherit the24:08kingdom of God? Oh, be not deceived,24:11neither fornicators. You guys having24:13sex? Guess what? You're not going to24:14heaven. That's what it says, right? Nor24:16idolattors, people who idol worship. You24:18don't think you idol worship? You put24:19money above God. You put children above24:21above God. You put your honey above God.24:24Okay? Nor adulterers, people who have24:27slept with other women, right? Okay. And24:30other men. Nor affeminate, right? By24:32homosexual. Nor abusers of themselves24:35with mankind, homosexual, but also, you24:38know, masturbation and things like that.24:4010. Nor thieves. Everybody stole24:42something. You either stole somebody's24:44happiness, you stole somebody's joy, or24:46you stole something physically. Nor24:47covetous people have been jealous about24:49other people. Nor drunkers. Everybody,24:51every one of us, most of us have been24:53drunk at least once. Nor abusers of24:56themsel, I'm sorry, nor revilers, nor24:58extortioners, right? Shall inherit the25:00kingdom of God. right there. People25:03close the Bible and they say, "See,25:05Johnny, if you continue to do those25:07things, you will not inherit the kingdom25:12of God." And then I go, "Cume, my25:15English not so good, but can you read25:17the next chap, the next verse, please? I25:20know my not so good, but can you read25:24next verse, please?" And so, when you25:26read the next verse, right, what does it25:29say? It says it right here, right? 125:30Corinthians 16 6:11. Remember how we say25:33but God, right? Okay, this is how God25:35uses but single T. Okay, not double T,25:38single T. And such were some of you.25:42Some of you were like this. Yes, but ye25:47are washed. Washed is in past tense,25:49already clean. But ye are sanctified25:56as Pastor Kim says in my Koreans.25:59Sanctified.26:01Okay, sanctified.26:03Past tense, not a process, not26:05progressive. Dunzo phenito figurative26:09facts. But you are justified.26:13already just in the name of the Lord26:16Jesus Yeshua and by the spirit of our26:19God doublefold. Got it? Understand? Peer26:24ent.26:26So what do we do though? I know God is26:29good, Johnny. I know God loves me, but26:33I feel bad. I know God cares about me. I26:37know God is going to help me, but we26:39negate him. Feelings. God, then my26:42feelings. God, no. It's Yes, I did this,26:45this, this, and that. But God, though,26:48God did this, this, and that. I'm26:50single. I'm so empty. I know God has26:53prepared someone for me, but I'm so26:55single. I'm so empty. I feel so bad. I26:59feel so bad. Why the hell are you27:02budding God instead of but God? But God27:06did. But God said, but God will do. But27:10God has already done. That's why we27:12deserve to burn. Me too. Understand what27:15I'm saying? Right? Understand? Right?27:17Understand? Make sense? If we weren't27:19born in a Christian household, and isn't27:21it that we have our minds blinded, so27:23coming to God becomes a very lengthy27:24process. I wasn't born in a Christian27:27household. I literally became a27:29Christian 9 years ago. I was Buddhist27:31and I was Muslim. So, I had Buddhism27:34rooted in me and Islam. Alhamdulillah.27:38Inshallah. Right? I had that rooted in27:40me. So what does what does that talk?27:42What are we doing here? What are we27:44doing here then? I'm over here leading27:46you guys. How you see but God? Why do we27:52but God? We but God in in our thoughts.27:55That's all our thought speaking. Apostle27:58Paul who was Saul of Ters28:01literally persecuted Christians. You28:04know how long it took him to come to28:05God? I'll give you an example. 24 hours.28:09One day, not even one day. It took him28:13literally a conversation.28:15Who art thou that persecutest? Why do28:18you kick against the pricks? Who art28:21thou that I'm hearing? It is your God28:24whom thou persecutest, Jesus Christ.28:27Jesus. Oh my Lord, how long did that28:30take? A whole very lengthy process. Come28:33on, y'all. Stop playing. Amen. But what28:36do we keep thinking? What did I just28:38say? People who think sanctification,28:40purification, justification is a28:42process. It's because you don't know.28:45You trust your your your filter. Again,28:48you see, still trusting your filter28:51every single day. Come in here, spit28:53bars, and still trust your filter every28:56single day. Make sense, guys? Why you28:59trust your filter? Guys, listen29:01carefully here. If you did so good in29:05your life, why are you not leading29:07people? Why do you question your29:09salvation? Why did you let men use you?29:13Why did you let women use you? Why do29:15you struggle with something as small as29:17depression and loneliness and anger?29:21That's small to God. Why do you struggle29:24with that? Why do you struggle with29:26lust? Seriously, if you're so smart, be29:31honest with yourself. Be smart about29:32that. Don't be dumb. Don't be like, "Oh,29:35I'm so smart. I know about this and I29:37know about that." But the one thing, I'm29:39not going to answer that cuz I feel bad.29:40No, let's keep it real. Can you guys29:42lead your lives well? And if so, I'm29:44going to test you. How has it been going29:46now? How has it been going? Honestly,29:50how right? I'm answering it now. And I'm29:53asking I'm I'm answering it now. You29:56don't have to pray. You have to believe.29:58You have to believe. Understand that30:02wife who filed for a divorce is not your30:04wife. That's God's daughter. Who do you30:08think can lead her better? You or God?30:10You understand? Yes, you can pray for30:12her. Absolutely. Absolutely. However,30:15what I'm saying is more than praying,30:17why not believe?30:19But God, right? Like I've been30:21answering. So if you sit here for30:23example and you said what you said, add30:26but God after that. Hey Johnny, my wife30:29has filed for a unbiblical divorce from30:32me, but God30:34instead of yes, I know God is good and30:37he brought me my wife, but my wife is30:39filing for unbiblical30:42divorce. You see the difference? It's a30:43switching of things. And we all struggle30:45with it. We all struggle with it. Amen.30:48So that's I've been answering it from30:50the jump here. Understand? Not30:52everything is a spiritual attack, right?30:55Cheer city, Cherry City. You've already30:58been snatched away by the enemy. Bars,31:01let me explain the answer. You have31:03already answered. You said for but now31:05if I'm trying to recall it and I'm31:07unable to. Is that the enemy snatching31:10away the answer? No. We've already been31:13snatched away. Do you know when? When31:15you were born. But why did I give you31:18Colossians 1:13? Because you've been31:20delivered. As my Southern Baptists say,31:24I've been delivered with a T. You've31:27been delivered. Understand? Hallelujah.31:30Salah. Amen. But the issue is no. I31:33don't believe that this whole thing I'm31:36speaking about goes over our heads. Why?31:40You've been delivered. But I can't tell31:42everybody that. I can only tell you guys31:45cuz you guys are family, right? I can31:47sit there and talk to certain people.31:49Sure. But then they'll just only talk31:51about their thoughts. 99% of people that31:54I meet only talk about their thoughts to31:56me. I'll tell them, "Hey, you know,31:58we're righteous. We're Yeah, I know, but32:00but they butt God every single day." And32:03they don't even realize they're butdding32:04God. Understand? They butt God every but32:07God said this. I know he said that. But32:11I'm still doing that though. But what32:13happens when I actually still feel that32:15way though? But what happens when I32:17don't feel peace? But what they're32:19literally butdding everything. And you32:21know what's the funny thing? They don't32:23know that they're doing that. They don't32:25know, right? Every single time the32:27people who listen, when I speak to them,32:29they cry. Do you know why? Because the32:32word enters so deeply that it flips32:36their whole foundation upside down.32:37Right? But for people who aren't32:39listening, do you know what they hear32:41the most? But that's what they hear the32:43most. But hey guys, we're righteous.32:45We're holy. We're sanctified. But isn't32:48sanctification a process? They don't go,32:50"Oh my gosh, I'm holy and I'm32:52righteous." No way. Amen. Let's go. What32:57do they do? But isn't sanctification,32:59justification, isn't that like a33:00lifelong process? You're not listening.33:03I am listening. Actually, I'm just33:04asking a question. Crazy, right? Think33:07about it, though. Somebody came here and33:10told you that you're perfected. Gave you33:12scripture. Hebrews 10:14, gave you33:13scripture. Colossians 1:13, that you're33:16delivered. A person who's seeking33:18deliverance. so badly. So badly. But33:22they can't hear it. Why? Why can't they33:24hear it? Why? Because it's the enemy.33:27Sure, you can say that. That's a copout.33:30Respectfully,33:31it's because they think they're good.33:34Exactly. You can't hear another person.33:38They think they're too good. I'm better33:40than this Johnny clown. Bro, I'm better33:42than him. This guy's a clown. Yeah, he33:45knows some things. I'm over here. I'm33:46just trying to little literally33:48stockpile my my theology.33:51Johnny Chang is good, but also, you33:54know, Bryce Crawford, too. Oh, he says33:56some bars. Let me weave that together.33:58Oh, even Nick Cannon. Nick Cannon kind34:00of says some crazy stuff on that one34:02thing when he was talking to John. Okay,34:03Nick Cannon, too. Okay, him too. Ooh, 5034:06Cent says something crazy.34:0850 says something crazy, right? Oh,34:11Biggie Small said more money, more34:15problems. Sheesh. I'mma put that in my34:17thing, too. You put everything in34:19rotation. Literally,34:22I'm telling you, people do that. They34:24sit there. You think I'm playing? You34:26guys did that. Stop playing. Oh, I'm34:29going to follow Johnny Chang, and I'm34:30going to follow this guy and I'm going34:32to follow them. Wow, they're so amazing.34:34And let me put it all together cuz I'm34:35so bigrained and smart. And yet, you34:38question your salvation every day. I say34:41one thing, they say another thing. Now34:43there's confusion. Now you're living34:45happy, sad, sin, repent, up and down, up34:47and down, up and down, up and down, up34:49and down. Now you're like, wait, which34:51who is it to believe? Is it this person?34:54Is it No, but dang, Johnny does make34:55sense cuz he said that, but then this34:57guy also makes him, but I don't I don't34:58know what to do, man. And all the while,35:01you don't realize you're at the center35:03of it. Playing your own god, being your35:05own judge, judging what Johnny says,35:08what that brother says, what that sister35:10says. You are God. Good job. You played35:14yourself. Good job. Understand? Do you35:17understand? You played yourself only. On35:19only yourself. But my pastor spits bars.35:22And Johnny spits bars. Yeah, this guy35:24didn't really I'll take this part. I'll35:26take this. Yeah, Johnny's biblically35:27good. He can literally pull up35:28scripture. So, that's pretty good. And35:29he's pretty good with his analogy, so35:31I'm going to jack his analogies, but And35:32oh, I get it. Okay, I'm I'm going to35:34formulate my own religion. And you know35:36what's funny? We don't even feel any35:38anything about that. We don't even feel35:40bad about that. Amen. There's a35:42difference between struggling, right?35:45Amen. And there's a difference between35:48I'm going to choose to do that.35:51[music]35:55Daily devotions are back and they're in35:57your email.

Make a decision respectfully.36:34Understand? Because when you have that36:36one mentor like the 12 disciples had one36:40Jesus understand right this I'm going to36:43learn from him and him and him. Of36:45course you can learn from people. I'm36:46not saying you shouldn't. But when it36:48comes to biblical knowledge it has to36:49come from one source respectfully. My36:52pastor the same one who saved me is the36:53same pastor that I learn from. I may36:56help in learning Coney Greek and find36:59someone who's a rabbitic Jew or if I37:01learn from somebody who's a, you know,37:03I'm sorry, a Messianic Jew or a rabbitic37:05Jew where I learn the Hebrew Aramaic and37:07the deep undertones and the lexicon and37:10I pay them, sure, $1,500 $2,000 a month37:13to learn these things. But from one37:16teacher, I don't never let them spin the37:18narrative. You understand what I'm37:19saying? of who I'm getting my fruit and37:22my my feeding from, my food from. It's37:25from him and he has one too. That's37:28Pastor Park. Understand? But what do we37:31what do we think? We have what we call37:34spiritual analysis. Analysis paralysis.37:38Do you know what analysis paral? You37:40know what paralysis is? Like sleep37:41paralysis? You can't move. You sit there37:43and you're just You guys are ET. You37:45guys know ET the alien. ET phone home.37:48You guys are Stewie from Family Guy. Big37:51old dome piece, little body. Meaning you37:54don't move by faith. You just know all37:55about it. Big old head, small little37:58bodies. Understand what I'm saying? See,38:00look at Heavenly Blaze. Look at him,38:02bro. Heavenly, you're just you're better38:04than me, bro. You're just better than38:06me, brother. You're better than me, bro.38:07It's okay. You know First Peter chapter38:091:13, which you just Googled. Amen. Good38:12stuff, brother. You're so smart, man.38:14Man can't ask questions. No, you can't38:16when I'm literally answering your38:17questions. Lol. Understand? Lol. I could38:20do it too, right? I can do it too. I can38:23play too and act like, "Oh, it ain't38:25nothing." And hide behind, you know,38:26this stuff too and my pride, too.38:29Understand? Make sense? It's funny cuz38:31I'm answering the questions. I gave you38:33scripture for that, too. But you don't38:35want to listen. I'm checking the deep38:37heart posture, but you don't want to38:39listen. Understand what I'm saying? No,38:40it's not. What was I saying? Uh-oh. See,38:43all you want is attention, bro. You have38:46a lot of pick me main character energy.38:48You got to close your mouth and open38:50your ears and open your heart, right?38:52Understand? Make sense? Can we have you38:54as our mentor and someone from our38:56churches? Well, of course. Of course.38:57But how do you know we're preaching the38:59same message? Honestly, how do how do we39:02how do you know? Right. How do we know?39:04Make sense? Amen. Hebrews 4:12. Of39:06course. Right. Like I said, I'm trying39:08to explain to a friend, but he keeps39:10saying there's two, right? So, like I39:11said, right? You guys see like this39:13brother here, he's here learning all the39:15knowledge. You can't compete with a39:18person's thoughts. Where in the Bible39:20does it say there's two sanctifications?39:22Understand? Where does it say that? Show39:24me the scripture and I'll believe it. I39:26can show you one thing where he39:28literally says one sanctification once39:31for all. That's in Hebrews 10:10. But39:33see, people trust their thoughts. And39:36KK, do you know why? Because they're39:37better than you. Do you understand what39:39I'm saying? They're better than you.39:42So you now have to plate to their39:44thoughts, their feelings. Make sense? I39:48literally showed the scripture. 139:49Corinthians 6:11 literally says, "You39:53are sanctified." I'm showing another39:56scripture. But look at what the brother39:58wants. Then let sanctification be a40:00process. Do you know why? Cuz he doesn't40:01want to feel guilty when he messes up.40:04That's what goes on in the heart of40:05people. They think we can't see it. Do40:07you know why people believe40:09sanctification is a process? cuz they40:11don't want to feel bad. Oh, I messed up.40:13Oh, hey, it's a process. That's what40:15they're doing because they're good. If40:17they realize, oh my gosh, I'm a piece of40:19garbage. Understand? I'll never be good.40:22Then they won't worry about falling. A40:25sinner who falls into sin, is that a40:27problem? No. It's only a problem when a40:29person thinks they're good and they fall40:30into sin, then they beat themselves up40:32for it. [laughter]40:34Understand? Right. A dog barking and40:36panting, you think he's like, "Oh my40:37gosh, I can't stop wagging my tail."40:39Roof roof. Guys, I can't. Oh my gosh, I40:42can't. Roof roof. When we look at them,40:43we're like, it's okay. You're a dog.40:45It's cool. Be the dog. It's when a40:48freaking cat starts going r meow meow.40:52What the hell? Yo, this dog got rabies.40:54It's got identity issues. It's got40:56species issues. This goes a whole40:58different species. Meow. Right. Trying41:01to slap, you know, claw you and Right.41:03Then you got to take it to the vet.41:05That's an issue. Understand? In the same41:08way, you're a dirty evil sinner. That's41:11why Jesus, you can never sanctify41:12yourself. Jesus has to sanctify you.41:15Paul himself literally had a thorn on41:19his side. So he So sanctification is a41:21process. Well, then he's not sanctified.41:23Sorry. He never got rid of that thorn in41:25his side. Sorry. He never got a thorn41:27got rid of it. So even though he wrote41:2914 epistles, yes, Hebrews, Titus, all41:31that, he went to hell. Anyone willing to41:34argue that? How stupid are we? I'm sorry41:36to say. How dumb are we to think that?41:39But that's what we think because we41:42trust what we think and feel.41:44Understand? We sit there and then we big41:46brain. What does the thorn mean? No. Are41:48we missing it? You see what I'm saying?41:49We're missing the whole message here.41:51What [laughter] is that? What does that41:53matter? The important thing is we are41:56sanctified. You should be jumping for41:58hallelujah.42:00You should be, wow, I'm righteous. I'm42:03sanctified. Understand? I'm sanctified.42:06I'm holy. Oh my gosh. I'm righteous.42:11Wow. What a fool. I was thinking the42:13whole time, you're right, Johnny. No42:14wonder you said don't trust your42:16thoughts. No wonder you said don't42:17follow your feelings. Wow. Cuz my42:20freaking body keeps telling me that it's42:22a process. But the word of God literally42:24says I'm righteous. I'm holy. What the42:28faith are you talking about? Amen. I'm42:30holy. I don't care what my thoughts say.42:32I don't care what my feelings feel. is42:34right there in the word. Understand?42:37Right. Right. So, we have to realize42:39that, guys. Amen. Right. But what do we42:43care about? God has raised Jesus from42:44the dead. And also, it says the spirit42:46of God raised him from the dead. And42:47also says God is a spirit. So, so how do42:49you believe God raised Jesus from the42:51dead? You see, that's what we care42:52about. No, I'm holy. I'm righteous. I'm42:55going to heaven. Yeah. Anyways, so how42:58is he a spirit? And how does he raise43:00himself from the dead? And can God die?43:02Huh? No, he can't. So, if you're right,43:04go to hell then. Got it. It's that43:07simple. So, you're telling me that we're43:09not sinners, Johnny. We're perfect. No,43:12we're not perfect, dude. And it's a43:14process. Okay, then go to hell then. Cuz43:15what? Where do sinners go? They go to43:17hell. You want to You want me to tell43:19everybody that they're sinners? Hey43:20guys, every one of you guys are sinners.43:22Yes, Jesus died, but you better do well43:24and keep all the commandments. Cuz if43:25you don't, you lose your salvation.43:26You're going to burn. I think 99 maybe43:28100% of us in here is going to go to43:30hell then. I'll see you guys in hell.43:32That's what they want. That's what they43:33don't even realize they're trying to43:34perpetuate. That's what they want.43:36Straight up. That's what they want. It's43:39a process. And if you never ever get to43:41it, you're going to hell. Sorry. That's43:43what the Bible says. It's biblical. Then43:46make sure you live by that and you go to43:47hell. Make sure when God is burning, you43:50go, "It's biblical. Amen. It was a43:52process and I failed." Make sure you do43:54that. Okay. Okay. Make sense? Make sure43:56you do that. Keep that same energy.43:58Don't sit there and be like, "Oh, yeah,44:00guys. You know, I was just asking a44:02question, guy." No. Question God. Make44:04sense, guys? Make sense? Okay. I got44:06lost on what the point is here. Okay,44:09I'm listening. Then you're not44:10listening. Respectfully. So, when we44:13look at Hebrews 10:10, right? Let's44:15focus here. Hebrews 10:10. Let's read it44:18carefully here. Positionally, we are44:20sanctified. Amen. You can say it's a44:22process of distrusting your thoughts and44:23following the word of God. Sure. But to44:26say that you think your behavioral44:28modification is sanctification.44:29Incorrect. And that's what they're44:31saying. Understand? They think, "Oh, I44:33have to stop doing this." Okay. But Paul44:35didn't stop doing what he was doing. He44:36even wrote about it. For the things that44:38I hate that I do. I keep on doing. He44:41says, he says it. Have you guys not read44:43Romans chapter 7? He He never stopped44:46doing certain things. Understand? Right.44:49Make sense? Exactly. Okay. So Hebrews44:5310:10, by the which will we are44:56sanctified44:58through the offering of the body of44:59Jesus Christ once for all. What does45:02that mean? One time for all eternity.45:06One time forever. Understand? But people45:10want to say, "No, no, no, no, no. That's45:12not what it is." Cuz those who endure45:15and overcome, which they don't even know45:17what that means. You know, Johnny, one45:19will be taken and one will be dropped45:20and the clothes will be there. That's45:22not about the rapture. That's about45:23Roman soldiers coming to kidnap those45:25people because they don't like45:27Christianity. But that's okay. You don't45:29know the context. Understand? Hebrews45:3110:10 is very clear, right? Right.45:34Sanctified means agiato in ki Greek. Do45:38you know what that means, guys? It's in45:40an aortis subjunctive tense meaning45:44one-time event, right? It means hagato45:48means to make holy to set apart to45:51consecrate as sacred45:54already sacred already holy already set45:58apart [snorts] it's in perfect right46:00aortis subjunctive tense it's a46:03completed action with ongoing effects.46:07Do you understand what that means guys?46:08It happened one time and you are forever46:11sanctified. Your sanctification never46:13runs out. That's what it says. It's not46:15being sanctified having been sanctified.46:19It says, understand? You're not becoming46:21holy. You're already holy. Understand?46:24That's what it says. Colossians 2:10.46:27Shall we keep going? Colossians 2:10.46:29But again, none of this is going to46:31matter for people. Do you know why?46:32Because what they're going to do is46:33they're going to have their filter and46:34go, "Okay, that makes sense. All right,46:36I can trust that." Again, who's their46:38filter? Who's their filter? Themselves.46:41Watch this. And you are complete in him.46:44Wait a minute. What does it say?46:46Spiritually you are complete in him46:48which is the head of all principality46:51and power. So remember how it said we46:53struggle with principalities and then it46:55says this after but you're complete in46:57him. So do you struggle? You do not.47:00Right. Right. John 17:e 19. Let's look47:03at that. And then Jude 1:1 as well. And47:06mind you Jude is before even Jesus and47:10everything else. Right? Okay let's look47:12at it. John 17:1 19 and for their sakes47:16I sanctify myself that they might also47:20be sanctified past tense through the47:23truth. So if you believe the truth, are47:25you sanctified? I think so. Jude chapter47:271 verse one. Jude the servant of Jesus47:30Christ, brother of James, to them that47:33are sanctified47:35past tense by God. Wait a minute. If47:37process is a sanctification,47:38sanctification is a process. He has to47:40say to them that are being made47:42sanctified, not are sanctified by God.47:45So he's a liar, then Judah is a liar.47:47John is a liar, right? Paul preaching to47:50Colossians and Galatians is they're all47:52liars then Mr. Heavenly is true then.47:55Make sense? You guys understand? Wild.47:58Wild for us to even try. Make sense? I48:00read the Bible x amount of times. I48:02know. No, you do not. Sorry to say. We48:05know nothing. Make sense? I get it. You48:07don't want to feel bad. I get it, guys.48:10People who don't have sanctification and48:11believe in this is because they don't48:12want to feel bad. They want to justify48:15that when they mess up that it's okay48:17because it's a process. No, rather than48:21do that feelings of feeling bad and48:24guilt and shame is not from God. Romans48:268:1 is pretty clear. Understand? That's48:29the truth. And they think we as48:31spiritual guides, people who have the48:33Holy Spirit, can't tell this heart. This48:35is for everybody here. Not just for that48:37this brother, this sister. It's for48:39everybody here, right? Do not weave the48:42word, guys, to make you feel better.48:44That's not what it's about. Rather,48:46believe the word so that you can feel48:48better. Do you understand? Don't weave48:50the word. Believe the word. What that48:52means is don't weave it so you can feel48:54good. Believe it so that you can feel48:56good and that you can you are good48:58because of it. You're trying to weave49:00it. Well, Johnny, it says here, it49:01doesn't say cannabis. So, specifically,49:04it never said cannabis. And every herb49:06yielding seed that's fruit is meat for49:09us to eat. So technically, if I don't49:11smoke it, that's why if I just eat49:13edibles, hey, it's not sinful. You see,49:16that's what people do even with49:18sanctification.49:19They justify themselves cuz they want to49:22feel good. You're going to burn for49:24that. Listen to me carefully, guys. I'm49:27not preaching fire and brimstone. I'm49:28keeping it real. You will burn for49:30twisting his doctrine to your heart49:32posture. And if you don't feel it,49:34you're going to feel it when you die.49:37I'm telling you, you will. Mark my49:39words. So, we either learn today, break49:42our hearts, and go, "Dang, I don't49:43really know nothing." Or hold on to your49:45pride and make sure you hold on that49:46pride cuz God God will burn that in hell49:48for you. Don't worry. Amen. Right? See49:50how people don't even listen. Like I49:53said, does that get you off your rocker?49:56Johnny never talks about hell because49:57he's trying to prevent you to go there.49:59But if you hold on to it, you will burn50:01for it. Understand? I'm telling you50:04guys, if you hold on to your pride, if50:07you hold on to your ego, if you hold on50:09to it, you will burn for it. I'm I'm50:11He's going to have to purify you one50:12way. There's three types of baptisms.50:14There's the fire baptism, the water50:16baptism, and the spiritual one. He's50:18going to cleanse you somehow. And I hope50:20it's not through fire. Understand?50:23Pretty pretty pretty biblical here,50:25right? But what do we want to do, man?50:26I'm right, bro. Shut up. You50:28disrespected me. That's Satan.50:30Understand? Can't ask a question. That's50:33Satan. Amen. Right. Especially when it's50:36getting answered, guys,50:39right? Amen. That's a good question.50:41What's the difference between pride and50:42self-respect? Self-respect is confirming50:45self in the eyes of God. Pride is50:48self-respect. Meaning, you don't confirm50:50yourself with God. You confirm yourself50:52with self. So, pride is anything that50:55pulls you away from God and puts all the50:57glory onto you. Self-respect is anything51:00that you're pushing towards God and51:02putting onto him. All the glory goes to51:04him. All humility goes to him. All51:06knowledge goes to him. This is how you51:08differentiate between self-respect and51:09pride. Understand? It's the same thing51:12with religion. It's the same thing with51:14relationship. It's the same thing with,51:16you know, how do I know a woman is sent51:17from God or a man is sent from God? Very51:19simple. Are they pu pushing you closer51:21to God or pulling you away from God?51:23That's how you know. It's a very simple51:25test. Understand? Right? It's that51:28simple. Easy, right? Good. Right. I was51:31asking because I was I struggle with51:32what he just said. So, I asked for51:34clarif I asked God to tell me if I need51:36to put it away. I'm asking I'm making51:38sure he just he just answered through51:40Johnny. I'm at work and can only focus51:42so much on what he's teaching. Amen. No51:43worries. So, the clarification is not51:46whether you do this or whether you do51:48that. Pickle, do you have to think about51:50God? Do you think God wants you to be51:52high out of your mind? Don't justify it,51:54right? Oh, but it helps me to sleep. And51:57don't justify any of that. Who can give51:59you sleep better? Marijuana, right? Or52:02Jesus, right? Marijuana or Mary's52:04father, right? Mary's Mary's dad, right?52:07Jesus. God, right? Understand? God,52:09right? So, God can give it to you. Then52:12you have to sit there and think about52:14that. What are you doing that's going to52:16benefit those things, right? Right. What52:19do you think? I will trash my stash52:21today. You don't have to, but rather you52:24should give it up to God. Father God, I52:28genuinely don't think that this is52:29right. You can try to stash it and trash52:32it, but don't have expectations that you52:34won't be rumaging through it or buy52:35another thing. Okay? You can be open52:37with yourself, but you have to be honest52:39with God. Father God, I'm giving it up52:41to you and I'm giving this for you. But52:43Lord, if you please, you need to help me52:45because I'm going to have, you know,52:46these these these temptations, but52:49that's why you have to be here. Dealing52:51with that retroactive jealousy. Sheesh.52:53In my relationship has pushed me towards52:55God. Yet, I still trust the thoughts52:57from time to time. It makes sense,52:58Johnny. Let me tell you something, okay?53:00Let me tell you something. Okay, Mr.53:01Johnny, since your name is Johnny, too.53:03Ain't that ironic? You're smart man. No,53:05I'm just kidding. Whoever named you a53:07smart woman and a smart man. JK News.53:10The truth is this, right? Retroactive53:12jealousy is obviously from the enemy.53:16And you're going to feel a certain type53:18of way. Do you know why? Because the53:21flesh is true in that it's dece it's53:25deceitful. What does that mean? It's53:27true in that it deceives you with the53:29truth. How? How? How? Let's think about53:33it. Ladies in the chat, I want to ask53:35you an honest question. Have you guys53:37ever had a one night stand? Be honest53:39here. Or slept with someone as a friends53:42with benefits. Of [snorts] course, a lot53:45of you guys have. Be honest here. When53:48you're doing it, does it feel good? Yes.53:51Right. Okay. But afterwards, it doesn't53:54feel good. Would you agree? That is what53:56the flesh does. Why don't it doesn't it53:59feel good? Is it because the flesh54:01doesn't feel good? No. It's because the54:03heart doesn't feel good. So, I'm sorry54:06to say the flesh will always feel good54:09because the flesh wants what it wants.54:10The heart, however, doesn't want that.54:13The spirit was is where the heart is54:15does not want it. Understand? So,54:17brother, if you're struggling with did54:20she like it? I'm going to be honest with54:22you. Yes, she did. That's what has to54:24help you get over it. Do you understand?54:27All of us are this way. Yes, our flesh54:30liked it. You'd be lying. You're a liar.54:33I don't care what you say because even54:36you don't know that your flesh will54:38deceive you into thinking that you liked54:40it. Understand? Otherwise, why would you54:43do it? Why would you do it? Understand?54:46You do stuff you don't like. Stop it.54:48Stop playing. Understand? So, you have54:51to realize that. But you don't have to54:53dig into her for that. You have to take54:55that to God. It's a difficult thing.54:58Yes. Most men I know Johnny struggle55:01with this even now. No man, we're55:04territorial wants any woman to know how55:07many how many you know the things she's55:09done with you that to then did with55:11other people even if they tell you no55:13I've never done that that's all BS55:15respectfully that's just a god honest55:17truth however you have to make that55:19decision right there understand you have55:21to make that decision right make sense55:25am I going to get over this myself which55:27you probably will never get over I'm55:29being honest here or am I going to give55:31it over amen being burrito here You're55:33either going to get over it or you're55:35going to give it over. Damn. Amen.55:37That's acceptance, right? Exactly. You55:39either accept them or you don't. And you55:40know what? Even if you don't accept55:42them, it's okay because at that very55:45least, that's not your assignment. Then55:46it's the same thing with single parent55:48households, right? People try to be55:51good. I want to but then even the55:53children will give them retroactive55:54jealousy. Man, you were with a man and55:56this is a constant reminder. And yes,55:58it's immature, but some of us are56:00spiritually immature. Make sense? That's56:03what you have to lean on God about. Some56:05of you guys, man, I hate the kids. I56:07don't even want to talk to your kids.56:08Blah blah blah, right? Some you guys56:09know this, right? Some of you guys have56:11done this, too. Some of you guys have56:13your own kids and don't like other56:14people's kids. You combine two families,56:16don't like their kids. You can be honest56:17about these things. It's cool. It's a56:19safe space. Okay? However, you have to56:22understand something. That is all from56:23the enemy. You only love your kids. You56:25think your kids are so good. Moms in56:27here, I'm sorry. You're completely56:28oblivious. You're completely oblivious56:30to your children. Your children can only56:32manipulate you. Everybody knows that56:34your children is manipulative except for56:35you. Understand? Seriously, you only56:39know 10% of their manipulation. Do you56:42know why? Because you bear them. You56:45bore them in your belly for 9 months.56:47You I love them. It's always this. It's56:49called a motherly heart. We see it even56:51with the sonyims in church, right? The56:53chastise Linda sim a lot of times56:56because she loves Isaiah when I try to56:58correct. Oh, it's okay. It's okay. What57:01you're teaching them is they can run to57:03you and they can be messed up and57:05they're going to be 30, 40 years old in57:07your house. It's okay. As long as he57:09does drugs in my house, I can at least57:10watch him. That's what that's what57:12you're creating. I'm dead serious. I'm57:15not even kidding. It ain't even funny.57:17As long as he's drinking, I can at least57:18protect him. Oh, you're the protector.57:20Yes, I am. Oh, God's not. Oh, well. Uh,57:24I don't like you, Johnny. Don't say57:25don't say that to me. You don't know57:26Mikey. You don't know what they've been57:28through. You don't know what I put them57:29through. You don't know. It's like57:32actually I do. I live through that.57:35Understand? Make sense? That's how we57:38all are. Amen. So to the one with the57:40retroactive jealousy, it's okay. It's57:43okay. You know, you have to realize57:45though that is the enemy 1,000%. And I57:49know that it's okay because you don't57:51want to be like that. Trust me, you57:53don't even want to be like that. You57:55guys who have jealousy, you want to be57:57jealous. Let's be honest here. You know57:58what I'm going to do today? I'm just58:00going to let this thing attack my mind58:02about maybe 16 hours out of the day.58:05Every little song I hear is about them.58:07Every, you know, image of them having58:09sex with somebody else is about them. Oh58:10my gosh, they did that to me, so they58:12must have did that to 10 other people.58:13Yeah, you know, that's what I'm going to58:14do. That's what I'm going to do today.58:17Yeah, I need that. A a triple shot of58:20jealousy today, please. Thank you. On58:21the rocks. Of course not. Right. I wish58:24I could live free from it, Johnny. I58:25know. That's why. Ladies, listen58:27carefully. The ones who are young in58:29here specifically, please choose58:31carefully. If you focus on the gospel,58:34don't put your men and your women too,58:37men in the chat, through torture, man.58:40You're literally competing with58:41something that you can't self soo from,58:43right? It's something that's very58:45difficult. And there's a reason why a58:47lot of single moms stay single mom,58:49sadly, is because the men can't handle58:51that. For some reason, a lot of men, I'm58:54telling you, even godly men cannot58:56handle it because Satan is powerful59:00about that. Amen. Of course, you guys59:02make decisions, but learn from the59:03people in here who made these decisions.59:05Young women, especially 18year-olds, 1959:08year olds in here, save yourselves59:10because there's no hope for relationship59:12anymore. I see it. Everything is much59:15better. You go to Instagram, you could59:16see boobs, butt everywhere, right, for59:19men, right? But one thing that you can't59:21find is a woman who's going to stay59:23celibate, who's going to have59:25self-control.59:27That's that's hot to men. Understand59:30what I'm saying? Wow. This girl got59:32standards. Sheesh, right? But even then,59:37here's the curveball. Satan will also59:40work too. Understand? Satan can also59:43flip. This is how cunning Satan is.59:45Watch. I'll show you guys. Say you save59:47yourself right for a man. The man can59:50sit there and think too, right? Right.59:53The man can sit there and think, "Well,59:54you've never been with anybody." So, you59:57might want to cheat, too. See, he works59:59in so many ways, too. You guys got that?1:00:02So, that's why it all comes down to1:00:05what, guys? Jesus. Understand? It all1:00:08comes down to the gospel, right? Satan1:00:11will twist either which way. You either1:00:13have it this way or you have it that1:00:15way. So, what am I teaching here?1:00:16Acceptance. But still moving boldly,1:00:20you'll make a stronger case. I'm telling1:00:22you, to your man who's getting attacked,1:00:24who doesn't want to be like that? Most1:00:26men who are retroactively jealous. I1:00:28know, trust me, I've dealt with it as1:00:30well. Romans 7:15 is their heart. Can we1:00:33pull it up? Right. Romans 7:15. For that1:00:36which I do, I allow not. For what I1:00:39would, that do I not, but what I hate,1:00:42that do I. Ladies, there are men in your1:00:45life who are dealing with retroactive1:00:47jealousy, right? And trust me, this word1:00:50says they do not want to be like that.1:00:52They don't. Right? Thank you for1:00:54exposing me. I wouldn't have thought1:00:55about this that way. No worries, sister.1:00:58A lot of people have that.

I was like cracking up.1:02:58>> That's crazy. Yeah. Well, anyways guys,1:03:00merch is out. Link in the description.1:03:02>> Love you guys. Thank you guys for1:03:04supporting. Appreciate you guys. And1:03:06we'll have more merch on the way. We'll1:03:08have so many other things. We're1:03:09constantly leveling up the platform. So,1:03:11just want to appreciate you guys for1:03:13supporting. Whether you're day one1:03:14supporter, whether you just started1:03:16supporting, genuinely, genuinely,1:03:18genuinely, from the bottom of our1:03:19hearts, we appreciate you guys. Love you1:03:21guys. Peace.1:03:24[music]1:03:29So people don't want to be that way.1:03:32Nine times out of 10, I've noticed that1:03:34they're frustrated that they're1:03:36frustrated. Angry that they're angry.1:03:39You guys see it too, right ladies? You1:03:40ever seen that where your guys are just1:03:42like, "Man, I know I shouldn't be saying1:03:44that, man, but like I'm sorry, but and1:03:46then next minute like you're a freaking1:03:48hoe and blah blah blah, you know, right?1:03:51How could you do that?" And you're just1:03:53like, "I'm sorry." And then sorry again.1:03:55and and then boom, right? It's like this1:03:57roller coaster up and down. That's how1:03:59scary it is, right? Men deal with these1:04:01things, right? I [clears throat] go1:04:02through it every day. I understand. I1:04:04understand. So, and and what does it1:04:07make you women feel? Helpless,1:04:10right? Women, ladies, helpless, right?1:04:13Cuz you feel condemned and then you1:04:15don't feel condemned and then you Right?1:04:17You see it as abuse. It is abuse1:04:19obviously. But from who though? From the1:04:21enemy. Trust me, they don't want to be1:04:24that way. Right? Is acceptance the first1:04:26step to overcoming this, pastor? At1:04:28times it feels like I can't ever get1:04:29past it. I know. I know that's a1:04:31constant thing, too. This feeling of I'm1:04:34never going to get over it, right? What1:04:35I genuinely believe, Johnny, through the1:04:37through the scripture is that there1:04:40needs to be God [snorts] who will uh1:04:44submit you to it, right? He will submit1:04:47you to getting over. He will submit. You1:04:50know, it takes us reminding ourselves1:04:53that we don't deserve anything. Make1:04:55sense? Then you kind of start to kind of1:04:58accept things, right? When you realize,1:05:00yeah, I don't deserve anything, right?1:05:02Then that's when you kind of appreciate1:05:04everything, but it it's hard to get1:05:06there sometimes. I get it because you1:05:10naturally have this inclination to feel1:05:12like, but I do deserve things. Make1:05:14sense? There are a lot of people here1:05:15who have that heart, too. I deserve1:05:18this. I deserve that. like I'm reading1:05:19the Bible, I'm saved, I'm righteous, and1:05:21then they go through it, right? So, if1:05:24you realize you don't really deserve1:05:25anything, then you know, you'll kind of1:05:28be like appreciative, you know, not of1:05:30her past, obviously, right, Johnny? But1:05:33you will you will at least be like,1:05:34"Okay, well, like, hey, you know, the1:05:36good times are the good times." So, just1:05:38have reverence and and respect for the1:05:40good times. And in the bad times, go to1:05:42God about it. You know, it can bring you1:05:45closer to God, like you say, Johnny.1:05:46Right. Right. Amen. Amen. You are1:05:50exposing things I'm not even explicitly1:05:52saying but feeling every day. Yes, of1:05:53course. Of course. I know. I know your1:05:55guys' hearts, guys. Trust me. Not only1:05:57have I been through it, but the Bible1:05:59literally says, it tells me your guys'1:06:02hearts. Understand? That's how you know1:06:04someone has studied this because they1:06:05can read your heart really easily1:06:07because not only are they going through1:06:09it, right? I don't have to go through1:06:11this to understand it because of the1:06:13Bible. You guys got that? Make sense?1:06:15Right. So, the Bible is pretty clear. It1:06:17literally tells you what you're going1:06:19through. It tells me what you're going1:06:20through. Tells me what I'm going1:06:21through, right? Tells me everything. So,1:06:24none of you guys want to be that way,1:06:26right? But there has to be a decision. I1:06:29think you have to draw the line, Johnny,1:06:32as well. Have a sit down and ask your1:06:35girl, "Hey, if I never get over this,1:06:39are you okay with it?" I think that's1:06:40important too because you don't want to1:06:43give them false hope too that one day1:06:46you'll get over it. What if that is your1:06:48thorn on the side? Honestly, I know1:06:50people who are retroactively jealous1:06:52done had four, five kids with somebody1:06:54and still gets jealous, right? I've seen1:06:57it a lot in in in specifically men,1:07:00right, Daniel? Octo dad. Octo dad can1:07:02keep it real, right, Danny? Don't you1:07:04feel like that sometimes, right? You got1:07:06to have multiple kids in multiple BMs.1:07:09I'm sorry, bro. I I love you. You know,1:07:11but we can keep it real here. You1:07:12multiple BMs in Serio, but still feel1:07:15like, man, what if she was with this1:07:16fool? Why was why was she with him,1:07:18though? Right. That's I know we all go1:07:21through that. It is immaturity at the1:07:24end of the day. And that's something we1:07:25have to accept. Yes, sir. I honestly was1:07:28like that. See? Right. Amen. It's1:07:30difficult, too, because a lot of you1:07:32guys are saved and you're still going1:07:34through it. That's even harder, I would1:07:36say, because the the the condemnation1:07:39comes harder. It's trickier. You're1:07:41saved, but why are you still feeling1:07:42like that? So then Satan will use that,1:07:45right? Satan will go, "You see, you're1:07:48saved. What kind of person are you?1:07:49You're evil. You're a fraud. You're1:07:51this. You're that. How can you be like1:07:53this?" Like, and it's worse. Versus if1:07:55you were just like retroactively1:07:56jealous, if you notice before you're1:07:58saved, right? It's not that bad. It's1:08:01like, "Yeah, I'm retroact." And then you1:08:03just keep like, you know, justifying it.1:08:06But because you have the Holy Spirit1:08:07now, you can't justify it no more. Do1:08:08you understand? You literally have to be1:08:10like, "Oh, damn. I know I'm supposed to1:08:12be forgiving. I know, you know, Johnny1:08:14said forget the past, and I know that1:08:16God forgave my past, but why the hell1:08:18can I not freaking forgive this person's1:08:20past, this guy's past, this girl's1:08:21past?" You understand? So that that1:08:23people don't don't even know that. And1:08:25the Bible talks about that, too. Yeah.1:08:27That's so true, right? So So Paul speaks1:08:30about this. Paul was already saved,1:08:32guys. Romans 7:15, he's already saved1:08:36and he's [clears throat] still saying,1:08:37"I do the stuff I don't want to do."1:08:39Man, I freaking hate it. Why am I keep1:08:42Why do I keep doing this? Pull up the1:08:44scripture about his thorn on the side.1:08:45Right. Second Corinthians,1:08:48he went to God and he had a a thorn on1:08:50his side. Ellis, let's see if you can1:08:52remember. If you can, it's okay. You can1:08:53Google it. Sometimes I want you to be1:08:54able to pull it up these two, right?1:08:57Thank you. Wow. She's she's smow1:09:00man. Good yab. Good yab. Don't get1:09:02higharted. Okay. 2 Corinthians 12 verse1:09:0689 and 10. Okay. And let's continue1:09:08here. Okay. All right. For this thing I1:09:11besought the Lord thrice three times1:09:13that it might depart from me. Nine. And1:09:15he said unto me, my grace is sufficient1:09:16for thee, for my strength is made1:09:19perfect in weakness. Most gladly,1:09:21therefore, will I rather glory in my1:09:23infirmities that the power of Christ may1:09:25rest upon me. Right. Therefore, I take1:09:29pleasure in infirmities, in my1:09:30reproaches. Put verse six and seven up.1:09:34For though I would desire to glory, I1:09:36shall not be a fool. For I will say the1:09:38truth, but now I forbear, lest any man1:09:40should think of me above that which he1:09:42had which he seeth me to be or that he1:09:46heareth of me. Seven. And lest I should1:09:49be exalted above measure through the1:09:51abundance of the revelations. He had a1:09:53lot of revelations. There was given to1:09:55me a thorn in the flesh. the messenger1:09:57of Satan to buffet me. Okay, those of1:10:00you guys who learn from me, do not1:10:02answer. I want to see what was Paul's1:10:06thorn on his side. Pride, lust, sin. Oh1:10:09man, you guys don't read the Bible. It1:10:11doesn't matter. [laughter] It doesn't1:10:13matter. It does. She hit me with the1:10:16rock. It doesn't matter what you what1:10:18his thorn was. That's hilarious. Hard1:10:20times. I don't know. Hate. Wow. You guys1:10:23trust your thoughts. Extra extra. Read1:10:26all about it. Unbelief. BBLs. No, there1:10:29was no BBLs back then. Big Bible lovers.1:10:32Sure. His flesh. No. Read. Read. Put it1:10:36up again. Sis Ellis. Verse 7. Thinking1:10:39he's good. Doesn't say. It does say.1:10:41Read. Amen.1:10:45Amen. V. Read it carefully. And lest I1:10:48should be exalted above measure through1:10:50the abundance of the revelations, there1:10:52was given to me a thorn in the flesh.1:10:54Pause. The messenger of Satan to buffet1:10:59me.1:11:00Wow. Food. Oh my lord. This guy, man.1:11:04I'm done, dude. What was given to him?1:11:07What was his thorn on his side? Satan.1:11:11Do you not see that? Read it. The1:11:13messenger of Satan. Read it. Right. One1:11:16more time. There was given to me a thorn1:11:19in the flesh. So, there's a thorn in his1:11:21flesh. What was pricking his flesh? the1:11:24messenger of Satan to buffet me. So who1:11:27who is Paul talking about himself? What1:11:29else is he talking about? The words of1:11:32Satan. Amen. Thoughts, right? Amen.1:11:36That's what it is. People try to figure1:11:38things out, but you don't read it.1:11:41Understand? So every day, what is he1:11:44actually struggling with? Thoughts, his1:11:46flesh. Amen. Wild, right? Satan has done1:11:50that to me, too. And guess who else? to1:11:52you too, right? Make sense? That's how1:11:55he attacks us. Pain in the backside.1:11:58Look at the scripture though. Don't take1:12:00what Johnny says. Read it carefully. Now1:12:03you'll know. No one knows what his thorn1:12:05on the side was. If you read a little1:12:07bit, you'll find out what he's a son. I1:12:11honestly have not been reading as often1:12:13as I used to. Sakorosis, I'm sorry to1:12:15say that's an excuse because we1:12:18literally It doesn't take you to read it1:12:19often. You just have to read it right1:12:21there.1:12:23I know. Oh. Uh oh. You You don't know.1:12:26But but otherwise, you wouldn't say1:12:28that, but but that's okay. Uh anyway, so1:12:31as I was saying, right, for sure. Thank1:12:35you. Thank you. So, don't feel bad about1:12:39not reading the Bible. Feel bad that1:12:41when we're executing the Bible, we're1:12:43still not catching it. Okay. Amen.1:12:45Right. It's not the heart of I can read1:12:48it and then I'll get it. like, you know,1:12:50that's not the heart of God. Oh, if I1:12:53just open it up, I'll get it. No, you1:12:54need servants to show you. Being wrong1:12:56is not an issue. So, stop trying to1:12:59protect that I'm wrong. I didn't read. I1:13:01feel bad. Oh, and seeing thinking that1:13:03we can't see it. We can see it. Amen.1:13:06That's literally Satan telling you,1:13:08guys, what's wrong with not reading your1:13:10Bible? You didn't read your Bible for 21:13:11months. Okay. And you can read it today.1:13:14And if you don't, we'll read it today.1:13:15Make sense? Hallelujah. That's what it1:13:17is. Amen. So, yeah. Do you guys know why1:13:21you don't read your Bibles? Because1:13:22you're good. That's why. Honestly.1:13:24Honestly. That's why. Cuz you're good,1:13:27right? Amen. Yeah. Being burrito. That's1:13:30not what it's talking about. It's the1:13:31context is found in 8 to 10. Faith1:13:34without love, right? Obviously, it's1:13:36Jesus Christ. He is love and he is1:13:38faith. The author and the finisher of1:13:39faith. It's talking about Jesus. You1:13:41You'll find it in 8 9 and 10 the1:13:43context. Okay. So, right. What if she's1:13:46doing little stuff like seeking1:13:47attention or just stuff she knows she1:13:49shouldn't be? Who are you talking about?1:13:51Your girl, you have a conversation with1:13:52her, right? Have a conversation with1:13:55her. Thank you for exposing my heart.1:13:56That hurt, but it was helpful. I1:13:58understand. I know it's painful. Trust1:14:00me. Of all people, I know it's1:14:04difficult. It's difficult, right? And I1:14:07did in case. So then talk to her again.1:14:09The good thing about conversation1:14:11is that it's free, right? [snorts] sit1:14:14down and say, "Babe, I'm telling you,1:14:16okay, let's think. Let's get closer to1:14:18God, then. Let's grow with God. What can1:14:19we do?" Because clearly, like, you're1:14:21following your flesh. I I get it. You1:14:23want validation. You know, women, as1:14:25much as they say they don't, they want1:14:26val to be validated by somebody, by1:14:28someone. Amen. Right. Men, too. You1:14:31don't think so? Come on, guys. Stop1:14:33playing. Men, too. Keep it real. Don't1:14:36you want to sit there and be like, "Oh,1:14:38it'd be nice if I, you know, hit the gym1:14:39and, you know, somebody like like, you1:14:43know, complimented me on, you know, my1:14:44muscles or whatever." It don't even have1:14:46to be a girl. It could be like a a dude.1:14:48You know, it's funny. Gym guys, gym bros1:14:51compliment more gym bros than girls do,1:14:53right? Like, damn, bro. You getting1:14:54swole, homie. Like, yeah, that's right.1:14:56Hey, thank you, man. I've been hitting1:14:57this new program. Woo woo wah wah.1:14:59Right. So, it's I'm not talking about1:15:01just men are seeking val. Everyone seeks1:15:03validation from everybody. That's what1:15:05it is. But again, you have to really1:15:07believe. I'm not saying go out there and1:15:09look bunny. You guys got to look nice,1:15:10ladies. Do your makeup, etc., etc. Good.1:15:13But remember one thing though. You have1:15:14to at least know your heart posture. Oh,1:15:16I'm a person who only cares about1:15:18validation, but I'm validated by God. As1:15:21long as you remind her that, right? You1:15:23can express that to to to, you know, to1:15:26that person. Hey babe, I know that you1:15:28like this. It's okay. You don't have to1:15:30lie and act like you're, you know, but1:15:33you're validated by God, you know, and1:15:36let's let's try to at least at the very1:15:38least live for him. Don't live for me. I1:15:41know you want attention and all that.1:15:42Whatever's happened inside of your life1:15:44to make you be like that, I'm here for1:15:46it. Okay? But I want you to understand1:15:48like that's not something that's okay.1:15:50Like it hurts my feelings because I love1:15:51you. I'm not just being possessive over1:15:53you. Do you want me to do those things1:15:55to you? Right. Yeah. It always turns to1:15:56a fight because you're not giving her1:15:58the mindset and the heart to be safe1:16:01when you attack. When you speak like1:16:03that to her, she's going to feel1:16:04attacked. And of course, they're going1:16:06to fight. She's being exposed. Saul,1:16:09right? She's being exposed. You have to1:16:11be gentle with the exposure, especially1:16:14in a relational thing. Now, when it's1:16:15spiritual, it's cool, you know, but when1:16:17it's like in a relational fleshly thing,1:16:20she's already going to not want to feel1:16:22bad. People don't want to feel guilty.1:16:24Amen. You got anyone here want to feel1:16:26guilty? Want to feel bad? Yeah, right.1:16:28Stop playing. Nobody wants to feel like1:16:30that. So, you're already putting her on1:16:32the chopping block right there. You have1:16:35to kind of be cautious about that1:16:36because everything is going to feel like1:16:38a dart to her. Like you're shooting1:16:39darts at her like shooting shooting at1:16:42her. So, you have to be smart about how1:16:44and meticulous and intentional about how1:16:45you move. Right. Right. Right. Right.1:16:48When I speak to her good and gentle, she1:16:49doesn't accept it. See? Right. That's1:16:51because you don't have faith. Make1:16:52sense? I'm sorry to say I'm being honest1:16:55with you because you're not listening to1:16:57what I'm saying. If you go and you do it1:16:59again based off of the words of the1:17:02servant, it'll hit different. I1:17:04guarantee you. Watch. So, this is what1:17:06you do. Okay? No, you don't give her1:17:08space. Don't listen to other people.1:17:09Listen to me carefully. You take her out1:17:11to a nice dinner, right? If you guys got1:17:14a beach, a lake, somewhere, take her1:17:16somewhere nice. Be good to her, right?1:17:19Get a couple's massage, whatever it is1:17:21that you got to do to make her realize,1:17:23"I love you." Okay? And then you talk to1:17:26her. Make sense? Don't give her space.1:17:28Be the space for her. Be the space that1:17:30she can be. Right? Understand, bro.1:17:34You're joking over here. I'm being1:17:35serious here. I'm not I'm not teaching1:17:36to r her up, bro. You don't have to r up1:17:38somebody who's with you. You crazy. I1:17:40know you're kidding, but just come on.1:17:42Let's have the right heart posture here.1:17:44Okay? I'm trying to help you for real.1:17:47Thank you. Okay. So sit there, talk to1:17:50her, take her out. I'm serious. Take her1:17:52to her favorite restaurant. Treat her1:17:54nice and sit her down and then talk to1:17:56her. You know, look, I did all of this1:17:58cuz I don't want to fight with you. And1:18:00I know a lot of the times we fight, but1:18:03babe, I seriously need to talk to you1:18:05about something right now. Yes, I'm I'm1:18:07angry and I may come off angry. Just be1:18:09honest. And I don't want to be this way,1:18:12but like, have you ever thought why I'm1:18:14telling you not to do those little1:18:15things to people? Yeah, because you're1:18:17jealous. Okay, but why am I jealous1:18:20though? Am I jealous because I don't1:18:22like you? Right? Like, if I didn't care1:18:24about you, I wouldn't care how you1:18:25dressed cuz I'm using you anyways. Who1:18:28cares, right? You have to be honest with1:18:30her. I care and I'm struggling because I1:18:33love you. That's why I want you. That's1:18:36why I don't want you to be this way. And1:18:38women, they'll see that. If she's cool,1:18:42she'll see that. But if she doesn't1:18:44respect you, you'll see that. You'll see1:18:46that. Yeah, babe. But you know, I do1:18:48like it though. Okay, but why you got to1:18:49wear booty shorts around? I just do. Why1:18:51you got to like guys with Dorito bodies1:18:53on Instagram right there? That's a clear1:18:55sign. You get what I'm saying? That's a1:18:57clear sign. You know, you have to tell1:18:59her, "Babe, your job is not to make me1:19:03jealous of other men. Your job is to1:19:05make other men jealous of me. All the1:19:08dead homies." Understand? That's what1:19:10you have to say. That's what you have to1:19:12do. Okay, mister. And if she doesn't1:19:14listen, just keep it real and keep it1:19:15pushing. Right. Right.1:19:17And if it really bothers you, just be1:19:19honest, right?
