Men of Israel, sons of God, patient saints, sons of God, hand salute. >> Christ bless. >> Salute down. Faced sisters. And to the honorable daughters of Sarah, we say shalom. Christ bless. Come on. >> We in this building. >> We in this building. In the word of Deacon Lava. All praises to the most high. Give it all honor and glory to the most high God. On this holy Sabbath day, we say shalom to everyone here and shalom to everyone online. Um, we got to see another day, man. Sabbath beach day. You know what I mean? And we're gonna get it in later on. The listening party, Austin, Texas. Let's do it, man.
Um, so the title for the class today is uh, covetous eyes will be put out. You know, in the world say lights out. If you're a covetous person, you working your way to an early grave. I tell you straight up. Because when it comes to money, bad business, and bad dealings in the world, people don't play. And we all repented or repenting. But don't don't push people to the edge. You know what I mean? Cuz everybody come from different walks of life. So when you're in the truth, make sure you're dealing right with your brothers and your sisters. Because you you could be the reason a brother don't get the kingdom because you're doing so many bad dealings. you you know you make the man revert back to the man he used to be. Not that he should but as brothers we're supposed to be what? A brother's keeper, right? So the way to be our brother's keepers is us uh is is by dealing right in everything that we choose to do. You know, you understand? So um let's start with uh Galatian, the book of Galatian. All right. Oh, chapter 5 uh verse uh six 16. Yep. >> Yes, sir. This is the book of Galatians, chapter 5 and verse 16. >> This I say then, walk in the spirit and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh. So the Bible say walk in the spirit and you will not fulfill the lust of the flesh. Oh, Mike, I see you got your hands up. What is the spirit? Don't do this to me, Capan. It's too early. >> Shalom, Moses Christ. >> So, Mosh, >> um, the spirit is Ro um, >> sorry, >> he just forgot it. >> Romans 6 63. >> Who? >> Romans 7:14. Sorry. >> My man nervous. All right, let's see what you got. This is the book of Romans, chapter 7 and verse 14. >> For we know that the law is spiritual. >> Did we play the Did we play the thumbnail? I wasn't paying attention. >> Now, come on. Let Let the people see your artwork, man. >> Because Because uh the thumbnail team, like, you know, they move up to a whole different realm. So, we got to give them their their their flowers. You know what I'm saying? I forgot. I'm so hasty to bring out the class. I forgot about the fire uh thumbnail. Uh, who did this one? Gabriel or Simon? >> Okay. Okay. Okay. All praises. All praises. That's fire right there. Let's Let's give Let's give the team a hand, man. >> Hey, listen, man. It's only going to get better. Only going to get better cuz uh the Lord is with us. Who can be against us? Everything Esau is creating, it's like, "Yo, man, listen. The Lord didn't give you that for yourself. Give me that. All that AI stuff, we're taking it. >> That's right. >> Ain't nothing they can do about it either. We got a lot of young mind. They're very like um what's the word I'm looking for? Devout into doing work for this truth. So they're learning that thing on fire. >> Yeah. Right. King, >> you got that AI unlock? >> Not yet, but he's he's getting there. >> Trying. >> Trying. All right. That's what's up. Hey, listen. Keep trying, man. Consistency beats motivation all day. So, be consistent and you're going to get there and see you're going to have movies. See, Mia saved the best for last. He's the one that's going to come out with the movies. Watch. He's going to be the real King Spielberg. >> All right, let's get back to the scripture. So, we read Galatians 5:16. I say, "Walk in the spirit and you will never do a mess." So, let's uh let's find out what spirit you got to be on for you not to do a miss. Read that. Romans. >> Yes, sir. Romans 7:14. For we know that the law is spiritual. We know what that the law is spiritual. >> We know that the law is spiritual. Go ahead. But I am carnal sold under sin. But we are carnal sold under sin. So if we want to stop being carnal, if we want to stop sinning, what we got to do? Keep the law. Now, the first scripture you wanted, I think was John 6:63. You got your thing all twisted up. You didn't expect me to call upon you. All right. Just be ready next time. >> Yeah. It's like you supposed to be always ready, right? All right. John 663. Let's go. >> John 6 and63. >> It is the spirit that quickenth. >> It is the spirit that quickenth. Only the spirit can change you as a man. Go ahead. The flesh profiteth nothing. The what? The flesh profiteth nothing. The flesh profitth nothing. Go ahead. The words that I speak unto you, they are spirit and they are life. The words that I speak to you, they are spirit and they are life. So go back to Galatians. So when it says walk in the spirit, that means what? Walk in the ordinance, the laws, the statutes, the commandments of the Lord God. If you're doing these things, you never going to do a miss. Read it again. This I this is the book of Galatians chapter 5 and verse 16. >> This I say then walk in the spirit and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh. >> So uh give me revelation 1 and three and then give me baroo 4 and 1. >> The book of revelation chapter 1 and verse three. >> Blessed is he that readeth. Blessed is who? >> Is he that readeth? Blessed is he that readeth. Now we all want blessings in our lives. And the Bible said, "Blessed is he that read it." So the bishop always say, "What? Read four chapters a day. You finish the Bible in a year." Right? >> And of course, if you have more time, by all mean who who in here would not want to be blessed. See, no hands. >> Everybody want blessings. Now, if you want blessings, you should be looking for the formula to be blessed. Correct? Read it again. Blessed is he that readeth. You see a formula right here. So that means what? If you apply what the Bible says, are you going to be cursed or blessed? Now, how is it that if you read, you're going to be blessed? Keep reading. Blessed is he that readeth. And they that hear the words of this prophecy, if you read, you're going to hear the word and apply it in your life. That's how that's how the blessing is going to come. Because what you read, thou shalt not steal. Then guess what? You apply it in your life and you ain't got to worry about nobody calling you a thief. Right. Go ahead. And keep those things which are written therein. >> And you do what now? >> And keep those things which are written therein. >> And keep those things that are written therein. So now what is it that you have to read? Cuz see a lot of people like, "Oh yeah, I read good books. I read a book a week." Okay, that good for you. Cuz there's plenty of books. There's plenty of books you could be reading, but you should be reading this book because this is the book of life. Give me Baroo. >> Yes, sir. Baroo chapter 4 verse one. >> This is the book of the commandments of God. This is what? The book of the commandments of God. This is the book of the commandments of God. So when you want to know what commandments to follow, you just got to read the whole Bible. Go ahead. And the law that endureth forever. For how long? Forever. Forever. So all the Christian churches, you guys are lost in the sauce because you say you ain't you ain't got to keep no laws. But you know simple way we prove that they are all greedy dogs and covetous men because as much as they say the laws is done away, they keep the only law that is actually done away with which is tithing. That means what? They're covetous. All their lights going to get put out. So coming from the Christian church and we see that covetousness is a bad thing. What will we be in the truth and still be covetous? Make no damn sense. Read it again. >> Yes sir. >> This is the book of the commandments of God. >> Uhhuh. >> And the law that endureth forever and the law that endureth forever. Go ahead. All they that keep it shall come to life. All they that keep it shall do what? Shall come to life. shall come to life. So if you want to have life, if you don't want your lights to be put out, you got to do what? You got to keep the commandments. That's how you end up being blessed. Blessed is he that read it. Read it what? The Bible. You you you study the Bible. You read the Bible. You learn all the laws and stats and commandments. And you apply them. And that way you what? You get to keep your life. Your lights don't get put out. Go ahead. But such as leave it shall die. >> Such as do what? Such as leave it shall die. >> Such as leave it shall die. Now you tell me, do you want life or death? The fact that you in this place, the fact that you in IYC, that means what? We know you want life, but are you going to do the things that are necessary to be done for you to have eternal life? Are you going to revert back to that old [ __ ] Or pardon my French, I know it's early. Some people might be like, "Damn, it started already." >> Oh, you're going to revert to that old man, right? And do what? Start behaving the same way you used to behave by giving it into your lust. Go back to Galatian. That was it, right? >> Yes, sir. >> Go back to Galatians. This is the book of Galatians chapter 5 and verse 16. This I say then, walk in the spirit and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh. For the flesh lusteth against the spirit. The flesh lustth against the spirit. So there's a war within you. You got the old men that always want to be around, always in your business. What you doing here? Reading the Bible. Nah, man. You don't need to read the Bible. Let's go rob a rob a house. Let's go steal a car. You remember how I used to boost cars? Let's go make that money. You broke right now. Call your man. H Ask him to give you two birds. You know what I'm saying? Let's go fly some kites. Don't do that. There's a war going on within within you. So, the only way you're going to win this war is what? If you are actually reading your Bible and applying the things that you are reading. >> That's true. >> If you're not reading, you're you're living every day like like vicariously. Nothing. It's like nothing happened. You're just doing your thing. You don't read the Bible. You don't pray. You don't fast. You just come here on the Sabbath just to keep up appearance. You know what I'm saying? You miss all new moons. You miss all feast days. You just show up on the Sabbath just to say, "Well, you know, I'm keeping the Sabbath. You're not you're not you're not going to be able to fight your lust that's within your flesh cuz why? You're not walking in the spirit." So it's it's very easy for you to get tempted and give in into your own lust. Go ahead. For the flesh lusteth against the spirit and the spirit against the flesh and these are contrary the one to the other so that you cannot do the things that you would. So if you if you what if you have the spirit within you, you're going to subdue your own understanding. >> You're going to subdue all the evil that's within you. every time they pop up their head. The Bible is like a secretary. You know, like when you go to um um office building, >> you have um a secretary at the front desk and you cannot see anyone in that building unless the secretary let you in. Some of you got no secretaries. Why does Who should be your secretary? And the the front basically the door to your to your soul is right here. So, the Bible should be here. If the Bible's here, you're gonna be like, I like to say this. You're gonna be just like Poppy on the block. I wouldn't do that, man. That's two to five. Mm- I hear you. That's a good plan. I hear you. But listen, man. That's 10 to 15. Hey, take it easy, my friend. That is life, my friend. You got life for that one. Don't do it, man. That's why the Bible should be in your in your forehead. Yeah. Yeah. I I I see you. I know you like money, but don't do it, man. The Bible say, "Thou shalt not steal." >> You understand? So, uh, somebody corrected me. He said, "Secary or receptionist?" You know, I'm Levi, man. Stop playing with me. >> Same difference. >> Same difference. >> Unless you're a receptionist. >> Yeah. Cuz when you go to the law firm, even if the receptionist let you in to get to the office, the top lawyers, they got secretaries. And if you didn't have no damn appointment, you ain't going in, >> right? >> I appreciate you >> trying to, you know, embarrass me. >> Oh. Oh, what is this? >> They want, hey, Judah, man. Judah want you to use the English, right? It's like, you messing up my master's English. >> Thank you, though. Uh, so receptionist, secretary, whatever it be. So that Bible needs to be that person in your forehead. When you see a beautiful woman and you tempted to just start rubbernecking, you remember Job immediately. I made a covenant with my eyes. Why should I look up on a maid? Lord, please have mercy on me. Like, if you don't have the scriptures readily in your mind, it's going to be impossible for you not to fall into temptation. You follow like you walk in a place somehow somewhere there's a stack of money just sitting there and nobody's around like uh thou shall not steal. The law got to be within you for you to do to not do wrong. But if it's not in you, it's easily for you to keep doing wrong over and over and over because why? You giving into your lust. The blueprint was there. It the Bible tells you exactly what you do to have life. But every day you get up, you choose to do the things that bring death to your door. And you know the funny thing is not that funny, but when we when we teach the Bible, then angels are what? Activated, right? So after you keep hearing the word over and over and over, at one point grace is running out. So if we don't shake up that Christian mind frame thinking like, I'm going to be sitting in here and just do evil over and over. Nobody knows about what the wickedness I'm doing. Most high is going to reveal you. And you can see in many cases, we didn't even go and search your garbage, right? We just sit here chilling, having a drink, going over the scriptures, and then people just start spilling your beans. Brothers go in the world doing works. Meet some random person in the world and they start talking about you. Oh, I see you got friends. Oh, you know so and so. Oh, yeah. Yeah, I know so and so, man. Listen, that man owe me money, man. He's Yo, if I see him, I'm going to punch him in his face. Meanwhile, you with the brother that owed that worldly man money every day. He'd never say nothing about stealing people's money in the world with fringes on. You follow? You have to be very careful cuz we're not small no more. People watch us. People watch us. And when you go places, you'll be surprised. You'll be very surprised. who actually knows you already. I remember um somebody uh um that drive trucks from a whole different state may drop a load in in Boston. My phone rang. A brother here called me like, "Yo, uh one of my boys just called me. He so so and so, so and so so and so." The person would never thought he come all the way some white v somewhere in Massachusetts and then a a person that's not even in the truth recognize him. >> Small world. Now imagine if he was doing wickedness. You see how easy it is for you to get caught. So don't be that guy man. Uh read verse 17 again. >> Yes sir. Verse 17. For the flesh lusteth against the spirit and the spirit against the flesh and these are contrary the one to the other. so that you cannot do the things that you would. So because they're contrary to another, if you want to keep doing the things that you should be doing, all you got to do is stay in this book because the flesh always going to be present. It's what you put in you now that's going to be fighting the flesh. Sarak 7 uh verse Mhm. This is the book of Sarak chapter 7 and verse 36. whatsoever thou takest in hand, remember the end. And thou shalt never do a miss. So you have to have a disciplined heart. You got to think before you act. Cuz naturally the flesh want to do what? Evil in every situation. So remember the end of every aspect of your life. Then guess what? You'll never do a miss. Remember the ultimate end which is what? Fire. Like N say that ether that make your soul burn slow. Remember that end and you you'll never do it miss. Why? If I if I choose to steal, odds are I might get caught. And based on what I steal, I might end up in jail or somebody just might punch me out. Some dudes will go as far as shoot you cuz in this in the street growing up dude will shoot you for a dollar. He like yo why you shooting Ray for a dollar? It's it ain't about the money. It's about the principle man. Nobody got more principle than Judah. It's almost every time a dude get shot it was about the principle. So that means even in the world there's principles. How can you be in the truth and have no principles and you're doing it with fringes on you making people talk evil of the gospel man. So every one of us got to do what? Take inventory of ourselves and recognize the demons that plagues us. Because a lot of time we come in the truth we think just because we here the demons are like gone. Well, here's the thing. The demons are waiting for you right outside the door. As you walk in the body, they look at the building like, you know, like um those um black cats, vampires, they sit a mirror or the sun, they turn into a bat and fly away. And what happen after that? Once the sun goes down, what do they do? They come right back out. So, your demons are never gone. Oh, he's going in the building. All right, I'm going just stay outside and wait for him. Then as soon as you leave here, what do you do? From Sunday to Monday, nonsense. And then Saturday, you holy again. Don't be that guy. Most giving us all chances, but eventually, you know what I'm saying? He be like, "Yo, eventually Mosai might put your light out and he be calling for help, brother. hit you. Hey, I cannot interfere with what Jesus want with your life. Cuz when the Lord want to hit you, sometime the Lord will squeeze the people around you just a little bit to keep them busy in their own personal lives where like they can't really help you. So that way you can get the full blunt of the of the blow that most high want to bestow upon you. So be mindful. So uh read that again then give me 1 Timothy 6 and 10. >> Yes sir. Sarak 6 verse 36, I'm sorry, 7:36. >> Whatsoever thou takest in hand, remember the end. So if you're in business and you doing business, don't short change people. Don't steal their money. Just think the end like, okay, if I steal this dude money, what might he do? And think of the worst possible situation. And if that if if you're not scared of that, then forget men. Think of what the Lord will will do to you for defrauding your brothers for stealing, for being covetous and stealing people's money. Think of what the Most High can do to you. As a man, you got to take inventory of yourself. A lot of us, we think we righteous and we neglect our sins. No, you must acknowledge that you're a sinner. acknowledge the sin, that's the only way to become righteous. Because once you know the sin is there, what you gonna be doing? Working on it, right? >> Just like if you know you got a big big belly and you you acknowledge it, what you going to be doing? You're going to be working on it. But as long as you don't acknowledge it, like, I could carry this fat around. It's it's cool. Are you going to change? So it's like over and over and over you're doing the same thing and Most High giving you a chance to change. People keep you know um pointing you out uh declare all your hidden sins and you just standing like I'm just going to continue as life. No man, there's a way Mosai is putting your business out there. You should know the Lord is trying to help you because nobody should be knowing what you was doing based on how you was doing it, right? And you're doing it for the longest. That means what? The Lord is giving you time for you to change yourself. And if you can't change and you see one by one, everybody that you was doing bad deals with, they keep bringing your name up. I I mean, you got to sit back and analyze yourself, man. like, hey, damn, Most High is really exposing me. I need to fix myself. Give me that. First Timothy 6. >> Yes, sir. 1 Timothy chapter 6 and verse 10. >> Um, start at 8. >> Verse eight. And having >> But start at six. >> Verse six. But godliness with content, contentment is great gain. >> Godliness with contentment is great gain. That little verse will save your life. You know what I'm saying? Be content with the things that the Lord give you. Go ahead. For we brought nothing into this world and it is certain we can carry nothing out. You come in naked. The only thing you get when you're leaving maybe a garment depend depending on where you die, how you die, right? You get a coffin and a garment. That's it. So, you're not taking nothing with you. So, why would you um mess up your eternal life just because of uh um of money, just because of cars, of house, vain things that do not profit. Go ahead. Verse eight. And having food and raignment, let us be there with content. Having food and raignment, let us there be with content. No, but you know what? I got food. I got clothes. But nah, I need I need I need money to have all the new clothes. I'm not happy with the little bit that I have. I want everything. And I want it right now at any expense. Go ahead. But they that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare and into many foolish and hurtful lusts which drown men in destruction and predition. So if if you all you want to do is get paid or you're going to die like 50 say get rich or die trying you're going to die. Go ahead. For the love of money is the root of all evil. The love of what? For the love of money is the root of all evil. The love of money is the root of all evil. If you love money too much, you'll do anything for it. If you robbing and stealing and lying just to get paid, guess what you'll do for it as well? You'll kill for it. And when you defraud your brother, that's hatred. Because I don't know about like listen here uh we don't have a lot of rich people among us. You know what I'm saying? Who we got? Who are the rich ones around here? >> Oh, Aziel. >> Tobias. >> Tobias. Nan. >> Shamuel. We got a couple of rich people among us. >> Mills. >> Oh, Mac Mills. You going to learn today apart from that brothers are broke. So if you have love for your brothers, right, and you're doing work for your brothers, why would you defer your own brother that's broke just like you that's trying to make a living? You know, sometime we bite on more than we can chew. Don't be that guy, man. And just because you know Mac Mills, Nan, Aiel, and Tobias got that money, doesn't mean you go cozy up under them like you know somebody like, "Oh, word. They got money. Oh, I didn't know that. Let me befriend them." Go ahead. Read. For the love of money is the root of all evil. For the love of money is the root of all evil. Go ahead. Which while some covered it after Wh which what? What? While some covered it after, some cover it after. You covetous. You covetous because you see the things that you want and you can't get and you find all other means to get it. We all the scripture say we always going to have the poor with us. Let me tell you, some of us I understand we promote, you know, for us to be entrepreneurs and have businesses and everything. Some of you just need to work for somebody and and just that's it. When it comes to business, you should have nothing to do with business. Just leave it alone. Because when you do business, you got to do what? You got to do it righteously. But when you're a covetous man, you your business will never prosper. And if it prospers, it's going to prosper what? In unrighteousness. Because you're going to be doing bad dealings. And eventually, your life's going to get put out because you're going to do it to the wrong dude. Because you're gonna have that brand brand new person that just came in the truth. You know what I'm saying? That believes like, "Yo, you know what? Help me. Oh, I heard you got this business, that business to do this for me." And then you think it's the same as before. Remember them two uh evil priests from Babylon. They've been doing what they were doing and thinking they could come in Israel and do the same thing. And what? It didn't go well with them with Susanna. They both got put to death. But why they were so comfortable to do it the way they did is because they've always been doing that and they got away with it. So sometime when you get away with things you think you good. But everything comes back to hunt you. Especially in this truth. We have to be men of honor in this truth. Play this video. That's a perfect video. It happened this week. Play it. Play it. Play it. Like my thought is everything has a price. There is not a number that can get you back in that ring. 80 million, 100 million. >> No, because >> what's a steel frame, man? >> Like my thought is everything has a price. There is not a number that can get you back in that ring. 80 million, 100 million. >> No, because now you selling your soul. >> $100 million. You can have my soul. >> That's you. Now we know you're a character. M >> sometimes, you know, you look at people and you be like, "Dang, man. You ain't got no dignity. You ain't got no morals." Like, >> come on, man. Like, what you what you going to stand for if everything is about money. >> So, that's heavy right there. Now, here's the thing. Here's the thing. This other dude, anybody know his name? >> What's his name? >> Yeah. Shannon. His name is Channon. >> Channon. What does he do? He's just a podcast caster liked. >> Oh, retired football player. >> Oh, yeah. Yeah, he was bending over with the football blue 51. Okay, I got you. He he went to Notre Dame. >> Hell no. >> So, he say he will sell his forund $100,000 you can have it sold. The sad part is some people would do it for a dollar. Straight up. Ask a crackhead. He knows man. For those who know, >> they know. >> I got these cheeseburgers, man. I just You know what I mean? For just How much does a rock cost, >> boy? Ain't no way, boy. Five. 510. Let's go with the lowest price for the $5 piece of rock. Cracker will sell his soul. So a cover this man will sell his soul not only for 100 for a cheeseburger but just a happy meal. They just got to have it. Cuz what? If you cons constantly sending to a choir, you're selling your soul. So now that's big money. 100 mil, that's big money. And he said, "Yo, that shows your character." Because your character is what makes you what? Predictable and dependable. And once people know your character, then they know how to deal with you. You're not a man of your word. I can't do business with you. When it comes to money, don't even talk to me. Now, if you as a brother, if you need $5, I could give you $5. You see what I'm saying? But I'm never going to put do business with you because why? You showed your character. You're a covetous man. Read 1 Timothy chapter 6 in verse 10. >> For the love of money is the root of all evil, >> which while some coveted after, they have aired from the faith and pierced themselves through with many sorrows. Pierced themselves through many sorrows. And a a simple one, you got your name, your reputation is everything. Doesn't the scripture says that? >> A good name is rather to be chosen above all riches. >> But here's the thing. If you're messing up your name is because what? You're not reading. If you was reading and you was embodying the things that you're reading, you'd be like, "Damn, you know what? My name is everything in Israel. Now, repetition is everything. I'm not going to mess it up for a dollar. It's not worth it because once your name goes through mud, you got to do a lot of working to get it back up. And even when you get it back up, if you're still in money, ain't nobody going to deal with you. When when it comes to moneym, nobody gonna deal with you. So, be mindful. Give me Exodus 20. The shoe is hot in here. Remember Luke Cage. They don't know about that. Nobody watch Luke Cage. See, if I said a a white character, they'll know it. When it's black superhero, like, nah, we don't watch black superheroes. You know Superman? Yes, you do. Exactly. You know Luke Cage. No, you don't. >> Huh? >> What was his power? >> You see like if I was say what Super Oh, Superman is this Superman. Is that what folks? >> Uh Powerman had like this uh this condition. It's like he was extremely strong. But I don't know I don't know full detail but I know like he had to take like extremely hot showers because because it was something going on with his skin. I don't necessarily know the whole detail. But I know that about skin though >> told you if it's not the white man they know all the white powers. If I said Spider-Man he know all the powers he had. If I said Superman he knows all the powers. That's Luke Cage right here. We need black superheroes like Samson and thing. You know what I mean? I like that little I saw a little clip Simpson giving Superman the business on Facebook. >> That was fire. Like, oh, damn. I never got hit like this before. >> They should ask the jawbone in Simpson. >> Uh yeah. So, get back to the scriptures. >> Yes, sir. >> Um Exodus 20, uh the book of Exodus 20 and verse 15. >> Thou shalt not steal. >> What does the Bible say? >> Thou shalt not steal. So if you tell me you're going to do a job for me, you did you took my money, you didn't do it. Did you steal? Did you lie? Were you covetous? >> You see like how one sin add to another add to another add to another. Jump to 17. >> Verse 17. Thou shalt not coveret thy neighbor's house. Thou shalt not coveret thy neighbor's house. Go ahead. Thou shalt not coveret thy neighbor's wife. nor his men's servant, nor his maid servant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor anything that is thy neighbors. So, if you're a covetous man, how how many uh there's we're just going to focus on the ten commandments, if you covetous, can you is that going to cause you to break every single one of them? How so? Let's use your brain this morning. >> Careful. >> So, um, if you're covetous, all right, uh, then you're your own God because you putting money or whatever it is that you covet before God. All right? You'll break the Sabbath day. Uh, you'll go into idolatry. >> How how would you break the Sabbath? because your coverages >> because you you so want money so bad that now you're going to go to work or >> so you have a job and you start taking side job >> or when the boss ask you to put those extra hours you're like uh the Lord understands. Okay. How would you uh uh let me see which one I want. Oh, how would you be a force witness? How would basically how would you lie? Uh same way like how you just said uh you say you'll do a job for somebody, you take their money and you have no intentions on, >> you know, I give you credit for brain. He used my own example against me. Like, well, you already gave me that one. That's a given. >> Uh that I not kill. >> If you cover just how would that cause you to kill? >> Well, um murder is hatred. Same thing. So, if we're neighbors and you covered in my stuff, then you hate me. Then that's just you're murdering me. >> Okay. How would it literally make you kill? >> Uh to cover yourself to >> stab, shoot, literally murder. >> It would to cover your lies or to stop you. So if you steal something, your coverage is you going to steal something. You don't want to go to jail. There's a witness. You going to have to kill the witness or while robbing a dude. Dude might put up a fight. He just kill him. Adultery. How would covetousness make you commit adultery? Cuz uh the that raging husband or raging wife come in, they might want to kill you and then >> No, I'm talking about you being covetous would cause you to kill. How would I mean uh would cause you to commit adultery? How would covetousness make you commit adultery? >> Uh so if you want somebody's wife so bad, you know, um you'll if you're a king, so to speak, you'll put them on the front line. >> No, regular [ __ ] we don't have kings now. Come on. You going too far. You You're gone too far, Mox. >> We talking about regular Joemo in the body or >> Ray on the block. >> He's coveretous. Come on. See, >> what the hell is this? >> Yeah, he he froze now. >> No, you just you're just a whoreonger and you you cover this. You see a fly sister or whatever. >> You got to Mike Mike's like, "Hell no, I'm lost in the sauce, man." The first time I'm hearing this right there. Come on. >> You got it, King. >> Oh, you being coetous to commit adultery. Just you see a sister and it's like you want to do something. So that's just you taking initiative. So yeah, >> you covered the man's wife's booty. Said don't cover nothing of your neighbors. You don't have you have your own. And then you see his like oh damn. I know that's my brother's wife, but damn, Miss Park, then you commit adultery. So basically, if you covetous, you you got to check your spirit cuz you break every law. Cuz when you covetous, you are your own god. You you only see you. Whatever you want, that's what's going to happen. Um give me Colossians 3 and5. This is the book of Colossians chapter 3 and verse 5. >> Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupisence and covetousness and what? And covetousness. So the Bible said to mortify all your members, but specifically and covetousness, you have to mortify that thing cuz it's going to destroy you. Read it again from the top. Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth, fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupisence, and covetousness, which is idolatry. >> What is covetousness? >> Which is idolatry. When you covetous, you an idoltor cuz the only person you listen to is you. You are your own god. You worship you. Everything that you think that's what it is. It makes sense in your head. You don't seek counsel, right? But the Bible said to mortify your members. So as a man, you must sit back and examine yourself and be like, "Self, let's examine uh yourself. You've done this, you've done this, you've done that. And everything you've done is along the sides of money. And every where there's smoke, there's fire, right? You cannot tell me 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 people got the same story about you and you say, "Nah, everybody lying. You good." Now you're in denial. We're not talking about in Egypt. If you don't examine yourself, what's going to happen to you eventually? Most gonna put your lights out. It's as simple as that. Because he's giving you chances. The fact that people coming forward and then stating your business, things that you're trying to hide, I'm going to show you how much you're not in the spirit. If the the first time the first person denounce you, I mean announce you, which you should have done. You know what? Let me go make things right with those other people's. You know what I'm saying? Make But you wait for this one to come, that one to come, this one to come, that one. I'm like, come on, man. That means after the first one, your heart was still set on hiding all the other ones. After the second one, your heart is set on hiding the rest of them. So, it's like you never really see yourself like that. Means as the people denouncing you, you don't agree with them denouncing you in your head. I did nothing wrong. These people are just talking trash about me. But did you do it? Did you take the money? Yes, I did. Duh. Your name is Mr. Covetous. And covetousness, read that part again.
Let it sink in. And covetousness, which is idolatry.
Covetousness is idolatry. And a lot of time we become covetous because what? We envy what other people have. We want to have all the best of things. Listen, there's an old saying in the world, never hang your hat where you can't reach. Live according to your means. Just because Nan got money doesn't mean you got to covet everything he got. Just because uh Azel is sitting on stacks, that means you got to covet what he got.
The man worked hard. You know what I'm saying? You got M. Oh, Tobias. His beard reminds me of Steve Harvey's hair.
You remember Steve Harvey when he had that toothpaste thing? It was always like looked like he had a fresh cut all day, every day. But that's what happened when we got bread like that. You know what I'm saying? Your beard can be flawless.
Listen, I got that picture patchy beard. You know what I'm saying? I ain't gonna covet. Hey, listen. When the Lord chooses to bless me with a good beard, I get the good beard. Some people are worse than me. So, we stay in your lane. Basically, don't don't try to be covetous and stealing everybody's stuff, man. We all brothers, right?
We all work hard for our money. So, if we entrust you with our money to do things, deliver. Do what you say you're going to do. Um uh you didn't read six yet. Oh, read it. Verse six. For which things' sake the wrath of God cometh on the children of disobedience. Which things' sake the wrath the wrath of God come upon the children of disobedience. When you're covetous, you are disobedient. And eventually the wrath of God is going to come upon you. You're going to watch things that were supposed to be a blessing to you just like vanish away. And you're going to be like, "Damn, I don't understand why this happened." You listen, you may not understand it, but you should know exactly why. Because whatever happened to you happened to you what? Because of your doings. Like it says in the Wisdom of Solomon, pull not death upon you with the errors of your life. That there's things you say, there's things you do that's going to bring death to your door. There's things you say or do that's going to bring curses to your door. So if you want blessings, what must you do? Apply what? The law, statutes, and commandments. Most High told you exactly what you what you should do to get eternal life. Tells you exactly what you do to uh to not get caught up in nonsense. They say, "Walk in the spirit and you will never do amiss." So when you among us and your lust is controlling you, that shows what? You're not studying. You're not reading. That's the way we judge people according to scriptures. Listen, we we sift you through the Bible. And we trust what the Bible is telling us. Cuz if you listen to a negro too much, he might sway you in believing that man, he was the best thing since sliced bread. Now take every word a man is speaking and siphon it through the Bible. And whatever the Bible gives you, that's exactly who that man is. Don't try to make excuses for him. That's exactly what he is. See him for what he is. You look at his actions. Okay. What the B? What does the Bible say about this behavior right here? Uh, according to the Bible, uh, this behavior is idolatry. Oh, you're an idolater, brother. N, I don't care. N nothing. Based on your actions and what the Bible says, that's what you are. You're stealing. Let's see what the Bible says. Does the Bible agree with you stealing? Oh, thou shalt not steal. Oh, you're a thief. No, but you don't understand the Let me explain. Explain what you you you going to you're going to convince me what I read in the Bible is wrong. Nah, I believe in the Bible, not you.
You're going to learn today.
Damn right you are. Go to Matthew 6:24.
This is the book of Matthew chapter 6 and verse 24. No man can serve two masters. No man can do what? Can serve two masters. No man can serve two masters. Read. For either he will hate the one and love the other.
So you can't serve two masters. You either hate one and love the other. Read. Or else he will hold to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon. You cannot serve God and mammon. Mammon is what? Money. You cannot serve God and money. This is why the elite, they don't want to hear nothing about God. Because why? They feel like they're in their they they're in heaven already. This is why a lot of people have been scared of dying. Did you know that? A lot of times the fear of death is not death itself. Real quickly, digress. Um, Sirach 41. I'll come back to that. Sirach 41 real quick.
Sirach chapter 41 and verse one. No. Oh death, how bitter is the remembrance of thee to a man that liveth at rest in his possessions. How read that again. Death. Oh death, how bitter is the remembrance of thee to a man that liveth at rest in his possessions. That man living so good. The moment he thinks of death, oh shoot, I got to leave all this thing behind. That's why in this truth, you can't get attached to things. That's why the Bible says what? Love not their life unto death. Nothing on this planet can hold us back from doing what we're supposed to be doing. And whatever's going to happen to us, that's what's going to happen to us. Like it says in 1 Corinthians 4:9, we he saved the apostles for last, appointed unto death.
But you think a covetous man wants to die after he just finished stealing that that that nice Porsche, bought that nice house?
Hell no. My man's like, "Nah, man. I need to enjoy this thing a little bit more." Cuz it's never enough to a covetous man. Let's finish the verse and then go back.
Yes, sir. Oh, death, how bitter is the remembrance of thee to a man that liveth at rest in his possessions. Because that man, that man, because of his possessions, his mind is on here. He's not thinking about possessions up there. He's not thinking about the Most High, what the Most High has in store for us. That eyes have not seen, ears have not heard. He doesn't think about this thing. He wants the here and now. Go ahead. Unto the man that hath nothing to vex him and that hath prosperity in all things. Yea. Unto him that is yet able to receive meat.
All right, let's drop that. That's just a little digression. Uh, go back to Matthew.
Yes, sir. Matthew chapter 6:24. No man can serve two masters. No man can serve two masters. that for either he will hate the one and love the other or else he will hold to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon. So you cannot serve God and money. I'm going to show you something. Give me Sirach 27 and two.
Sirach chapter 27 and verse two. And that scripture proves like listen, if you're going to do business, man, you better be well-studied. I don't like doing business with brothers in this truth, man. Like then things most of the time they never end up well. True. I got a brother that not even know my social security number, my wife's social because what we did, you know, trying to buy coins and stuff and then guess what? The brother's not even here.
Meanwhile, he got all my information.
The hell is this?
At any time, he could do me real dirty. And that's just me. And I know many other stories of people that went through like, you know, for some reason, business is the truth with brothers never end up well. So be careful. And this verse is going to show you why. Go ahead. Sirach chapter 27 and verse two.
Mhm. As a nail sticketh fast between the joinings of the stones, so doth sin stick close between buying and selling. As a nail sticking fast between the joining of a stone. It's very hard to pull a nail out of a stone. It says so is sin. So does sin stick close between buying and selling. The moment you're talking about doing business, sin is like, "Oh yeah, you're doing business. Well, you you know I can help you make more money, right? Well, they trust you, right? Yeah. All right. Do they have knowledge of what you're doing? Like as far as the No, I got I have all the knowledge. All right. Tell them the wood cost $5,000. Meanwhile, you go to a store, you you got your discount card, you get it for $3,000, and then charge him a little $3,000 to do the job. You see, brother, you come out with $6,000. Oh, yeah. Hey, that's a good idea. No, it's not a good idea because that's the devil playing tricks on you.
You see the money like, damn. Let me milk the brother. Don't beat that guy. Read that part again. As a nail sticketh fast between the joinings of the stones, so doth sin. Start at verse one.
Verse one. Many have sinned for a small matter. Many have sinned for a very small matter. Why? Because they're not walking in the spirit. That little situation should not have caused you to sin. But let's see why you sin. Go ahead. And he that seeketh for abundance. He that seeketh for what? For abundance. He that seeketh for what? For abundance. You just want it all. Go ahead. Will turn his eyes away. Now you turn your eyes away what? To the truth. You know what the Bible says? But that money is green. You in love with Benjamin Grant Jackson. He said the hell with Washington. You just want big bills. You want to be rich like Mills, like Tobias, like Aiel. Who we used to call the general? Yeah.
Oh, and then he lived on General Street.
Oh, yeah. My man bought a house on the hill on General Street. I'm like, what the hell is this? The man got got his got the street named after himself. That man, some people here caking. But read it again. Many have sinned for a small matter, and he that seeketh for abundance will turn his eyes away. So, small matter. Hey, bro, can you do this job? Oh, yeah. Yeah, that's that's nothing. How much? $10,000. All right, cool. When is it going to get done? Two months. Two years later. Yeah, bro. What happened, man? Why you harassing me? I get I get it. But hold up. You got my money. I understand. Come on, man. That's a small matter. You give your word. You must live by your word. You must be a man of your word. So the thing about this truth is this. We all come in the truth and you know, as we learn, we grow. We think we got it uh together. And you always got to watch brothers that never been through nothing in this because time will show your character. And it's when the situation happens how you how you end up dealing with the situation. How you bounce back from it. That's how we're going to know what you really about. You see what I'm saying? Because we like, listen, we all got spirits on us. And many of us, we think we we good until things start happening that's revealing you to you. There spirits you had in you never thought it was there. Some some of us, the spirit we had in the world is the same spirit we end up battling in the truth. Some of us is a spirit we never thought existed that pop up like, "Oh, damn. Where you been all my life?" Incogn. But some people, you check the their track record, they they're doing shady business here. If you go back to the tracker, oh, they did shady business. Like, you know what I'm saying? That's that's always been their demons. That means what? They've been hiding it. But can you hide anything in here?
Now you can't. You can't cuz darkness and light can't dwell together. So the moment you in here, give it time. All your sins will be exposed. And don't see it as a bad thing. It's actually a good thing. You know what I'm saying? Because you want the Lord to show you your sins so you can do what? To repent and fix them. Okay? So now you know for sure, okay, this sin is very prominent in my life. What am I going to do about it? The solution is the first chap verse we read. Walk in the spirit. Start reading the Bible. Start applying the things you're reading and that spirit is not going to destroy you. But if you refuse to acknowledge who you are and the things you battle with, then it's going to destroy you. So accept your trials when they come, not as a bad thing, but as a good thing. Because now you're like, "Okay, I see where I'm at. I need to fix this. I need to change." Thank you, Lord, for revealing me to me and for revealing me to all my brothers that could help me. Because, believe it or not, this is help. This is help. Medicine for the soul. You ain't got a whisper, you got a mic, right? My man Ray Ray sleeping back there. So, this is medicine to the soul. This is to help you fix yourself. And that's for all of us. Like it says in Hebrews 4:12, the word of God is sharper than any two-edged sword. Two-edged, that means it cuts both ways. So we all got something to pick up from this class. And if you sitting at home and said, "Damn, this is a good class. Thank God it's not for me."
Or trust me, it is more for you than anybody else. Cuz we all need Jesus. All of us have coveted something. But the Bible said coveted good gifts. You see the AI thing? Luke is good with it. Yeah, you could covet that good gift and stay over under Luke. Become his understudy.
And learn this thing. Now that's good. That's good coveting.
But don't start hating him because you can't get it and then he got it and start hating because he got all the accolades. Captain is calling for him to travel. You know what I mean? Like all that and that. No, that's that's the wrong spirit to have. You're destroying your own self.
The hell is that?
Don't be that guy. Read that verse again. Yes, sir. Many have sinned for a small matter, and he that seeketh for abundance will turn his eyes away. So, if you're seeking for abundance, you're going to turn your eyes away from what? From the laws of God. You're going to do it once, you're going to do it twice, you're going to do it three times, and before you know it, you're buried. Always put the law first. Never turn your eyes away from the law because of your own lust, because of your own sins. Go ahead. As a nail sticketh fast between the joinings of the stones, so doth sin stick close between buying and selling.
As a nail sticketh fast with stone, so doth sin between buying and selling. You got to be very careful when you do business. The moment you say you want to do business, you're entering a realm where demons are all around you to tempt you to see how righteous you're going to be. Go ahead. Verse three. Unless a man hold himself diligently.
Unless a man hold himself what? Diligently. Can Can I get the meaning of the word diligently? Read. Unless a man hold himself diligently in the fear of the Lord. His house shall soon be overthrown. His house shall soon be overthrown. If you don't hold yourself diligently in the fear of the Lord. Diligently. Go ahead. Diligently. In a way that shows care and conscientiousness in one's work or duties.
I need better than that. Come on, man. Diligent. Don't pull up meaning where you have to go look up for the next word. Come on. Get straight to the point. There you go. Read that one. Whoa. Buddy buddy.
What's going on here? All right. I'll read it from there 'cause they're having problems.
Diligent characterized by steady, earnest, and energetic effort. Painstaking. Characterized by steady, earnest, and energetic effort. Painstakingly, that means you are doing everything you can to do what? To hold yourself in the fear of the Lord. But that shows you if you're not giving it all you got to be in the fear of the Lord, you're done. Don't think, don't be in here by uh, you know, carelessly just aiming around. Yeah, I mean, I keep the Sabbath. I'm here. Okay, you're here. What are what are you doing? Like, always trying to stay busy. When you find yourself just chilling, doing nothing, it's like, oh, damn, that's not good. That means I'm chilling with the devil if I'm not doing nothing. Cuz idleness teaches what?
Evil.
Much evil, right? So that means when you're idle, you're in the devil's back I mean playground. You want to stay busy. You want to hold yourself diligently in the fear of the Lord.
That's right. So number one way to do that is to read this Bible continuously to familiarize yourself with the stories 'cause within the stories of the Bible, you learn the dos and don'ts. You follow? And when you learn the dos and don'ts, you learn how to apply them in your life. Cuz when you find yourself in situations, you're like, "Ah, I remember Joseph. He was in that situation. How did he get away from it? Ran?" Okay. So, my only way out in this one is my feet. Get the hell out of dodge. Otherwise, you're done. So, uh, read that verse again. Verse three. Unless a man hold himself diligently in the fear of the Lord, his house shall be soon overthrown. So your house shall soon be overthrown. So when you say you want to do business, you got to hold yourself diligently because if you don't, you're going to do shady business. And if you do shady business, how long your business will last?
A few moments later.
You thought you was going to be the next uh who's a big-time tycoon real estate developer. We don't want Huh? Who? Grant Cardone. I don't know him. But hey, we're gonna go with what you say. The ones I know, they in politics. They're stealing land and thing over there in Israel. So, let me see. Grant Cardone. Yeah. You thought you was going to be that guy, but guess what? You end up being Grand What's a good name? Grand garbage. And nobody nobody goes to garbage except you a bum. All right. So give me Ma uh Matthew, sorry, uh James 5 and 12.
Let's go. The book of James chapter 5 and verse 12. But above all things, my brethren, swear not, neither by heaven, neither by the earth, neither by any other oath, but let your yea be yea, and your nay nay, lest ye fall into condemnation. Giving the meaning of condemnation. Let your yea be yea, and your nay be nay. When you say yes, I'm going to do it, do it. If you say no, you can't do it, then don't do it. But don't ever say, "Yeah, you can do something." Get paid to do it and then you don't do it. The Bible says you're going to fall into condemnation. Go ahead. Read uh
Condemnation. The expression why you keep pulling. He went back to the same one that gave you just garbage. Brothers don't learn from their first mistakes. Condemnation. The state of being condemned then do condemn. Condemn to declare to be reprehensible wrong or evil, usually after weighing evidence and without reservation. So that means what? The law is going to judge you. He's going to review your your your case like uh what we got on uh today doc uh docket number, I don't know, 75, the state versus so and so. How do you plead? Not guilty, your honor. Bring the witness.
You didn't know that they had the witnesses? How did they know about so and so? Yep. The Lord knows about everything. You see the eyes of the Lord is in every place, beholding the good and the evil. The Bible says curse not the king in thy chamber, lest a little bird come and carry the news. You do evil all the way in a different state with somebody we never even know, never met, don't know that dude, and another brother goes in that state and does a job and meets that same person. What are the odds? You know, that alone should make you like really think about yourself instead of making excuses. Take heed, man. There's a way to look. I remember a a a brother here. He Well, he's not here right now. We just finished spending a beautiful Sabbath together. Maybe it was a feast day because there was a lot of music, a lot of dancing. Like we was we had a ball. Two brothers, Shalom, you and left. They got in the same car and we still in the school chilling and um my phone rang and it's one of the brothers that just left. We just finished having a great time together. I'm like, "Shalom, shalom, shalom." Nothing. But I'm hearing conversation. And so I didn't hang up the phone right away. Them two brothers in the car just talking trash about me, about all the rank men.
And when questioned about him straight, first thing is lie.
Why? Why? Why would you destroy yourself? How can you just finish having fun with brothers and you as soon as you get in your car, the first thing you do? Start talking evil. But the point is, you you should fix yourself when the Lord is revealing you. And that's one thing for people to do an inquiry about you and go search your the things out. But when people are just chilling, minding their business thinking you good and then all your evil starts coming up without them asking one question. It's just people just bringing it up. That that should make you reflect on your life. That means the Lord wants you to get right. Cuz if the Lord is doing it that way, Most High is doing it that way because he wants you to get right. Because he could have let you be that dude and go do it to the wrong person. And but the only way we find out is when you're freaking six feet under. Yo, you heard what happened with so and so. What happened? He got shot. What you mean he got shot? A brother got Yeah, he did some bad dealing, man. Some dude chased him down and put two in his back. Why? Because he stole $100,000. You know what I'm saying? Do you want us to find out that way? Or should you be happy that the Lord exposed you the way he did? Well, if Most High is exposing you, it's because he wants you to change. So now, you could sit at home and hate me, or you could see that the Lord wants to help you. The choice is yours. What you going to do from this day forth, that's entirely up to you. And based on what you do, you're going to get blessings or cursing. So the choice is yours.
Or you going to be that righteous man and be like, you know what, I recognize my mistakes. Let me apologize. Let me make amends. And going forward, I'mma do my very best to make never make sure my name gets mentioned in anything remotely close to this. I'mma walk in the spirit so that way blessings may come my way.
So the choice is yours. Where was that? We finished James, right?
Yes, sir. Give me Matthew 5 um 5:37.
So, it says, "If you keep doing the things you're doing, you're going to fall into condemnation. Most are going to judge you." But let's see why. Cuz Matthew's uh said it in a way that you might get. Matthew chapter 5 and 37. But let your communication be yea yea, nay nay. But whatsoever is more than these cometh of evil. So you're evil when you're lying to your brothers. Let your yea be yea and your nay be nay. Anything other than that is evil. And if you're evil, you're going to get condemned. Not by us, but by the Lord. Because the the eyes of the Lord is in every place beholding the good and what? And the evil. And will reward men according to what? To his deeds. Read it again. Let it sink in. But let your communication be yea yea, nay nay. For whatsoever is more than these cometh of evil.
Give me Colossians 3 and 9.
Colossians 3 and 9. 3 and 9. Lie not one to another.
Do what now?
Lie not one to another.
Lie not one to another. It's forbidden for us to lie one to another. We must be men of character, men of honor. Cuz the world is like what? They must look at us and say, "Surely this is a wise and understanding people."
That's right. So if you're lying, how the hell people in the world going to look at you and say, "You're wise and understanding."
Like this is an evil ass negro. And now the truth is evil spoken of because why? The whole time you was doing that thing, guess what you had on your clothes? So at no time did you look down and see your fringes and be like, "Damn, I can't behave this way. I can't do this to my brother. I can't do this not even to people in the world." You know why? Cuz you're not in the Bible. You're not in the Bible. Because there's no way you're in the Bible and doing evil. It's an oxymoron. The two don't go hand in hand. Picture this. You just finished reading the Bible. Yep. Thou shalt not steal. All right. Word. I love that scripture. All right. Let me get my gun. You go outside. Yo, put your hands up, man. Give me Give me your Come on. It doesn't go that way. You have to be away from the scriptures. It's nowhere near in your head for you to go and do evil. That's why stay in this Bible when you were intimidated said till I come give attendance to reading. Understand the word reading is fundamental. Oh yeah, reading is fundamental. You need to read
Continuously for that word to be in you. Um, give me uh 1 Timothy 3 and 7.
The book of 1 Timothy chapter 3 and verse 7. Moreover, he must have a good report of them which are without. Moreover, he must have a good report with them that are that are without. Nobody in the world should have anything evil to say about you. Now, we know they're going a lot of people in the world going to lie on us, but nothing they say should they be able to back it up. So if you're doing doing business in the world, guess what? You must even be twice as honorable. And you know, if you if you are honorable, you're going to get more jobs because nobody likes a thief. And everybody wants to save a dollar. So when they know that you um they're dealing with a with a person that is righteous, then they ain't got to worry. Every every uh you you find a real estate developer, that man will throw jobs at you left and right because he's in the business of making money, not losing money.
That's right. If you're not robbing him, you're going to get more jobs. So when you when you uh how to say a a penny wise, a pound foolish. Yeah, you could make an extra penny off this job right now, but you just lost a whole pound because sometime people don't say nothing and you wonder why they never call you no more to give you a job. Because the the the stuff you trying to pull over their head, they see it. Y stay in the spirit over there, man. See things flickering. Is somebody getting cut? So they see the the nonsense you did. They're like, "You know what? I take my loss and I I just ain't dealing with you no more." Some Now you living your life. Some sometime people see what you're doing and they call you out on it. Now you're ducking them. You used to go down this street. You don't go down this street no more.
When you come home, you circle the block three times looking at every car that's parked. That's not a way to live 'cause you're afraid somebody might hop out. Look, where's my money, man? You end up looking at that kid in a bunk still that's running
for $20. Yeah. Uh yeah. Uh yo uh put find me um Family Guy.
Good call. That's my favorite Family Guy. Uh uh uh um scene. You know what I'm saying? Cuz guess why? Some dudes are DMX when the funds are low looking for the $1.00 can run that dope. Some dude will pistol whip you. Real talk. Something will stab you up for $20 and they'll be like, "Yeah, nah, man. It's about the principles,
principalities, man. You're not applying yourself, Smokey." Let me know when you get the the the scene. Read that verse again. Yes, sir. The book of 1 Timothy, chapter 3 and verse 7. Moreover, he must have a good report of them which are without, lest he fall into reproach and the snare of the devil. So, lest he fall into reproach and a snare of the devil, the devil got you trapped up because he convinced you it was okay to lie. It was okay to steal. It was okay to be covetous. Then at the end, he just removes himself. You know what I'm saying? And then the people that you owe money show up. Yo, you want that box? May I box you? Just getting snuffed all day. Play the scene.
Come on.
Stewie. Uh, hey.
Hey there. So, uh, it's been 24 hours. Got my money?
Oh, uh, you know what? Just give me till next Friday. I'll have it for you. Oh. Oh, that's funny. I could have sworn I said have it today.
Yeah, I don't have it. Sorry. I ate it. You see how big is my belly?
That's good. OJ.
I'M NOT IN AGREE. OH.
YEAH, THAT HURT. THAT HURT.
WHAT THE HELL?
YEAH. IT FEELS SO GOOD, DOES IT? NO. HUH?
YEAH, THAT'S WHAT HAPPENS, MAN.
OH MY GOD.
YEAH, THAT'S WHAT HAPPENS.
Where's my money?
You going to GIVE ME MY MONEY? WHERE'S MY MONEY, MAN? WHERE'S THE MONEY?
You like that? That feel good? That feel good?
Damn.
Where's my money?
Now that's a whooping.
You got till 5:00. You hear me? Till 5:00.
YOU FREAKING PSYCHOPATH.
CLEAN YOURSELF UP.
Did you just get cancelled? Oh. Oh, I'm looking at the wrong screen. A lot of us, that's what's going to happen. And guess what? After that butt whooping, you still got to get back the money. So why would you even want to go through that? Righteous dealing. Now you walking around with a permanent garage gate in your mouth. The hell is this? You ain't got no money to go see the dentist. You're missing all four. Whistling like you follow. Don't be that guy, man. Read that verse again.
Yes, sir. Moreover, he must have a good report of them which are without. So, you got to have a good report with them that are without. So, if you have to have a good report with them that are without, how much better should your report be with them that are within? 'Cause if you're doing good outside, you ain't going to be doing bad here. The two go hand in hand. Uh, Ephesians 4:28. The book of Ephesians, chapter 4, and verse 28.
Let him that stole steal no more. Let him that stole do what? Let him that stole steal no more. Let him that stole steal no more. Go ahead. But rather let him labor with working with his hands. You see, get a job. Stop stealing. You're not a businessman. You're a thief. Stop stealing. Get a job. Business is not for everybody. Business is for people that have integrity. Get a job. Trust me, you'll do a lot better.
Than him that stole steal no more and do what?
Let him that stole steal no more. But rather let him labor.
Let him labor. Go ahead. Working with his hands.
Working with what?
With his hands. The thing which is good that he may have to give to him that needeth. And one day you might have to give to somebody in the body that's that's in need because the bi the Bible says the poor always going to be with it with you. Message.
So don't be that guy that's robbing the poor brother needing a job done, you know, save his little $2, then you rob him. No, be the guy that's in a position like you work, you got some bread. If a brother needs $5, you could give him $5. You need $10, you could give him $10. You want to be that guy, not the one taking and stealing. You want to be the one that's giving. Uh, go to Wisdom of Solomon. No. Romans uh 13. Romans 13:7 through 10.
Yes, sir. Romans chapter 13 and 7. Render therefore to all their dues. Render therefore to all their dues. Go ahead. Tribute to whom tribute is due. Custom to whom custom. Fair to whom fair. Pay your debt. Pay your taxes. You got dudes that go see the tax man and be lying on their tax just to get an extra dollar. Well, my friend, I'm telling you straight up, one day you get you'll get audited. It'll see everything. Ask me how do I know. One day you get audited. That's what I'm going to say. And you have to pay everything back. Go ahead. Custom to whom? Custom. Fear to whom? Fear. Honor to whom? Honor.
Owe no man anything. Do what? Owe no man anything. Owe no man anything. No man should be able to be like, "Yo, he owes me this much. He owes me that much." How'd that happen? Well, you know, he took my money, never did this. Bro, you don't want that name. Here's the thing. Had you been doing your four chapters a day, applying yourself, you would have remembered scriptures like this. And when the devil is trying to tempt you, guess what? You were like, "No, the Bible says, 'Owe no man anything.'" So, you know what? It's cold outside. I don't feel like getting out of bed, but I did take the man's money and I did say, "I'm going to do this job." Let me get my ass butt my butt over there and go do the job.
Come on.
Because you don't want to owe nobody nothing. You don't want nobody to put come put your name in nothing. That's it. Owe no man anything but to love one another. For he that loveth another hath fulfilled the law. So you got to have love for your brother. If you if you're taking if you're doing deal back dealing with your brother, that shows what? No love. That's hatred. So by being covetous, you're breaking mad laws. You got a legion of demons on you. There needs to be major prayer and fasting happening. Go to um Deuteronomy 25:14. Time is getting on us fast.
Sir. Deuteronomy chapter 25 and verse 14. Thou shalt not have in thine house diverse measures.
That thou shall not have in your house what?
Diverse measures.
Diverse measures. Go ahead. A great and a small. A great and a small. Go ahead. But thou shalt have a perfect and just weight. You shall have a perfect and just weight. The Lord doesn't don't like people that's crooked. Message. If you're going to do business, make sure you have a just balance. Don't tilt it. Go ahead. A perfect and just measure shalt thou have. Uh-huh. That thy days may be lengthened in the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee.
Have you been reading the Bible? Because if you really read this verse and embodied what he was saying, would you be doing unjust dealings? Would you be dealing unjustice in business? Because the Bible already tells you what's going to happen to you if you keep up what you're doing. What's going to happen if you if you keep up an unjust balance, King? What's going to happen according to that verse? Of course, you wasn't paying attention. That's why I call upon you.
Oh yeah, Ed lover. What you got?
What's going to happen to you if you have a just unjust balance? You got nothing. Not paying attention. Okay. What you got? Nobody got Damn. So, nobody was paying attention. Mike. Oh, Lamont.
I got it.
You're a short, bro.
Till your throat. Your
There you go. Your days will be shortened.
You'll be ex You'll be executed. You'll be killed.
All right, read it again because they weren't paying attention.
Yes, sir. Verse 15. But thou shalt have a perfect and just weight. You want to have a perfect and just weight. Do not do nothing. Don't play with the scale and tilt it in your favor. Go ahead. A perfect and just measure shalt thou have that thy days may be lengthened. That thy days may be lengthened. 'Cause one day somebody's going to realize you've been robbing them and they're going to kill you. I'm telling you, for a dollar, you'll be surprised what people do. And the Bible knows that from the very beginning. The Lord already wrote about that. Read it one more time to let it sink in.
Yes, sir. But thou shalt have a perfect and just weight, a perfect and just measure. Shalt thou have that thy days may be lengthened in the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee? Give me Proverbs 16:11. Proverb 16:11. Most High is not a joke, man. He gives you commandments such as what you should do to live. He said, "Therefore, keep them so that you may have life." You're going to learn today.
So, this class is us through the Bible speaking life into all of us that's dealing with those spirits. And if we don't take heed, death is at our door, man. Just waiting for us. Go ahead. Proverbs chapter 16 and verse 11. A just weight and balance are the Lord's. Okay. A just weight and bal and balance is what? Are the Lord's are the Lord. Go ahead. All the weights of the bag are his work. So if you're dealing with a just weight and balance, guess what? You're in the spirit. Most High loves that thing. Give me uh 20:10 Proverb. Chapter 20 and verse 10.
Diverse weights and diverse measures. Both of them are alike abomination to the Lord. Diverse weight and diverse measures, they are both alike. They are an abomination to the Lord your God. So if you ain't doing right dealings in your businesses, the Lord is looking at you like an abomination. Eventually, he's going to like do what? Put your lights out because he already warned you. If you want to have long life, do what? Have just weight. Then that's the thing I'm pleased in. So if you have diverse weight and diverse measures, the Lord ain't pleased with that and your days are going to be short. But dudes will kill you. I'm telling you, dudes will kill you for a dollar. Um, Proverbs 9:17 uh and uh 19.
Yes, sir. Proverbs 9 and 17. Stolen waters are sweet and bread eaten in secret is pleasant. So you feel good when you have you make that extra money. You're stealing stuff. Go ahead. But he knoweth not that the dead are there. He knoweth not what? But he knoweth not that the dead are there. He knoweth not that the dead are there. Go ahead. And that her guests are in the depths of hell. Condemnation. Her guests are in the depths of hell. So don't be a thief. Deal righteously. Deal according to the law, statutes, and commandments. Uh, Proverbs 16 verse 18. Proverbs 16 and verse 18.
Pride goeth before destruction and a haughty spirit before a fall. Pride goeth before destruction and a haughty spirit before a fall because what you are, you're supposed to do what? Let me start 37 um verse uh 10. Come on. No, verse 16. Sirach 37 and verse 16. Come on.
Let reason go before every enterprise and counsel before every action. So everything you supposed you're doing, you're supposed to do what? Seek counsel. And if you seek counsel, are things and you apply it, are things going to go well for you? Yes. But instead of seeking counsel, pride kicks in. But the moment pride kicks in, if you were reading, you would understand. Pride goeth before a fall and a haughty spirit before destruction. So everything you take on to do, you're supposed to do what? Let reason go before every enterprise and counsel before everything that you do. And if you apply the counsel, you're gonna be all right. But when you're like, I'm my own man. I do what I want. So when you do bad, a lot of time you do bad dealing with brothers, both you and the brother were out of the spirit because the the brother you defrauded, he never asked for counsel. Hey, listen, man, I want to do this job with so and so. What do you think about it? They never seek for counsel because a lot of time you see a lot of time people, once they have a little money in their pocket, they feel like they're grown. I'm a grown man. I own my own house. I bought with my own money. I'm doing better than you. Who the hell are you for me to counsel with?
And then months later, years later, when everything falls apart, now they want counsel.
A few moments later.
Well, then the Bible says let counsel go before every enterprise. No, your pride went before every enterprise and then destruction comes with it. And when things are falling apart, then everybody wants counsel now. No, you need counsel before. So this class is for is for all of us to remember the scriptures because the scriptures say blessed is he that readeth. And if we apply the things we're reading, we're going to we we're going to be all right. Go to uh 2 Kings 5.
Come on. Uh uh start that out one.
Second Kings chapter 5 and verse one. Gonna read fast, sir, because I would uh what time is it? Yeah. Read fast. Fast.
Yes, sir. Now Naaman captain of the host of the king of Syria was a great man with his master and honorable because by him the Lord had given deliverance unto Syria.
Come on. He was also a mighty man in valor, but he was a leper. And the Syrian and the Syrians had gone out by companies and had brought away captive out of the land of Israel a little maid. So you have Naaman the leper. Remember that. Go ahead. And she waited on Naaman's wife. And she said unto her mistress, "Would God my lord were with the prophet that is in Samaria, for he would recover him of his leprosy." And one went in and told his lord, saying, "Thus and thus said the maid that is in the land of Israel." And the king of Syria said, "Go to, go, and I will send a letter unto the king of Israel." And he departed and took with him 10 talents of silver and 6,000 pieces of gold and 10 changes of raiment. And he brought the letter to the king of Israel, saying, "Now when this letter is come unto thee, behold, I have therewith sent Naaman my servant to thee, that thou mayest recover him of his leprosy." So her I mean his u um uh mistress says what? There's a prophet in Israel that can heal you. So anybody will give everything for their health. That's what the Bible says in Job. So he gets money, gold and everything, letters. Hey, listen, let's go see that dude. You know what I mean? I need to be cleansed. Go ahead. And it came to pass when the king of Israel had read the letter that he rent his clothes and said, "Am I God to kill and to make alive, that this man to send me to recover a man of his leprosy? Wherefore consider, I pray you, and see how he seeketh to quarrel against me." And it was so. When he listened, the man of God had heard that the king of Israel had rent his clothes, that he sent to the king, saying, "Wherefore hast thou rent thy clothes? Let him come now to me, and he shall know that there is a prophet in Israel." So Elisha said, "Hey, no, man. Don't worry about it. Let him come to me, and I'm going to heal him because there's a God." Go ahead. So Naaman came with his horses and with his chariots and stood at the door of the house of Elisha. And they like, "Yo, I thought we was talking about covetousness. What the hell you talking about naming a leprosy? Let's see. We'll see."
Come on. And Elisha sent a messenger unto him.
saying, "Go and wash in Jordan seven times, and thy flesh shall come again to thee, and thou shalt be clean."
Alicia said, "Go in the Jordan, dip yourself seven times, and you're going to that leprosy is going to be gone." Go ahead.
But Naaman was wroth and went away and said, "Behold, I thought he will surely come out to me and stand and call on the name of the Lord his God and strike his hand over the place and recover the leper."
So you notice something, a lot of time we want God to do things the way we want God to do. No, just shut up and obey. That's a that that's a problem with many of us. We want it done the way we think it should be done. No, it's going to be done the way the Bible say it's going to be done. The prophets say, "Yo, go dip yourself. Go dip yourself seven times. Go ahead. Are not Abana and Pharpar, rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel? May I not wash in them and be clean?"
So he turned and went away in rage, and his servants came near and spake unto him and said, "My father, if the prophet had bid thee to some great thing, wouldest thou not have done it?"
So his pride got got to him. So his pride almost made him not get uh uh healed because he didn't want to do what the prophet says. Like, man, I got better body of water. Maybe the Jordan was murky at the time, 'cause rivers sometimes get murky. Like, I I ain't dipping in that that water. That's pride. When the Lord says do, do do. Stop going against what the the prophets of the Lord is saying. Go ahead. How much rather than when he saith to thee, wash and be clean.
Then when he went down and dipped himself seven times in Jordan, according to the saying of the man of God, what verse you read?
>> 14. Okay, go ahead.
Then when he went down and dipped himself seven times in Jordan, according to the saying of the man of God, and his flesh came again like unto the flesh of a little child. So he did finally do what the prophet says to do, and he was healed. Keep reading.
And he returned unto the man of God, he and all his company, and came and stood before him, and he said, "Behold now, behold now, I know that there is no God in all the earth, but in Israel. Now therefore, I pray thee, take a blessing of thy servant."
So he wanted to bless him because he just got healed. Remember, a man will give everything he possesses for his health. Go ahead.
But he said, "As the Lord liveth, before whom I stand, I will receive none." And he urged him to take it. But he refused. And Naaman said shall >> so the prophet Elisha said no, I don't want nothing from you. Keep all your goods. You're healed. Just just go about your business. Read.
And Naaman said, "Shall there not then, I pray thee, be given to thy servant two mules' burden of earth? For thy ser for thy servant will henceforth offer neither burnt offering nor sacrifice unto other gods, but unto the Lord. And this thing the Lord pardon thy servant that when my master goeth into the house of Rimmon to worship to worship there, and he leaneth on my hand, I bow myself in the house of Rimmon. When I bow down myself in the house of Rimmon, the Lord pardon thy servant in this thing."
And he said unto him, "Go in peace." So he departed from him a little way. So he left. Elisha would not take nothing. He did everything Elisha says. The man went his way. Him and all his gold, all his treasure. Pay attention now. Read.
But Gehazi, the servant of Elisha, the man of God. >> Gehazi was what? The servant of Elisha. So you had a servant. Elisha had a servant. Go ahead.
The man of God said, "Behold, my master hath spared Naaman the Syrian, and not receiving at his hands that WHICH HE BROUGHT. BUT as the Lord liveth, I will run after him and take some what of him."
So he was what? Covetous. 'Cause Naaman came, I mean, he came with some boku boou bucks. And Gehazi is just looking at all that glitter like, "Oh, damn. You really not going to take none of this?" Like, "Yo, the man just want to give it away. Like, yo, what the hell?" Go ahead.
So, Gehazi followed after Naaman. So, he's like, "The hell with that. I'm going to get me some gold." Go ahead.
And when Naaman saw him running after him, he lighted down from the chariot to meet him and said, "Is all well?" And he said, "All is well. My master hath sent me, saying, Behold, even now be come to me from Mount Ephraim two young men of the sons of the prophets. Give them, I pray thee, a talent of silver and two changes of garments."
Stop. Covetousness will make you do what? Lie. Did his master send him? No. But he coveted that gold and silver and the garment, and it's like, "Yo, you know what? I'm going to lie." So he lied. But remember, God sees all. Right. Go ahead.
And Naaman said, "Be content. Take two talents." And he urged them and bound two talents of silver and two bags with two changes of garments and laid them upon two of his servants. And they bare them before him. And when he came to the tower, he took them from their hand and bestowed them in the house and let the men go and they departed.
But when he went in and stood before his master, and Elisha said unto him, "Whence comest thou, Gehazi?" Hey, they said, "Yo, where you been, man? I've been looking for you. I had some work for you to do, and I I didn't see you. Where you been?" Go ahead.
And he said, "Thy servant went no whither." So he did what again?
>> Lie again.
>> So the scripture say what? Um Oh, damn. It just escaped me. Basically, don't add sin unto sin. So he's just adding sin unto sin 'cause he didn't control his covetousness. Then now he has to lie and lie again. Go ahead.
And he said unto him, "Went not mine heart with thee? When a man turned again from his chariot to meet thee, is it a time to receive money and to receive garments in oliveyards and vineyards and sheep and oxen and menservants and maidservants?"
That's when I was like, how did he know?
>> Emotional damage.
>> Little bird man, the spirit of the Lord be revealing. Brothers, you think you're safe, you think you're good. Side note, I remember one time bishop gave a story. Told her brother, asked a brother, yeah, are you are you dealing with drugs? Are you selling drugs? Nah, bishop. Next time you see him, are you you sure you're not dealing with drugs? Nah, bishop. And then the next class, bishop played a video. The dude is on the run 'cause they raided his weed house.
>> He had a whole plantation in a in a separate neighborhood.
>> Damn.
>> You see, when the Lord sends the prophets to talk to you, you better take heed. So if you want to get right, the moment you see the prophet like, you you didn't tell nobody your business and like, yo, are you sure you're not doing this? There's something in you should be like, damn, I am doing it and I I'm very good at hiding it. How would he know? You see what I'm saying? But hey, some people don't want to take heed. Go ahead.
>> Read read 26 again and 27 together.
>> Yes, sir.
>> Verse 26. And he said unto him, "Went not mine heart with thee, when the when the man turned again from his chariot to meet thee? Is it a time to receive money and to receive garments and oliveyards and vineyards and sheep and oxmen and man men's servants and maidservants?"
"The leprosy therefore of Naaman shall cleave unto thee, and unto thy seed forever." And he went out from his presence, a leper as white as snow. So the same sickness that just left off Naaman jumped on him. Why? Because of his covetousness. God does not like covetous people. So he got judged what? Immediately. But many of us because we don't get judged right away, so we think we good. But here's the thing. When the Lord is giving you warnings, classes like this is coming out. Well, you're going to have some people that don't that that's not going to pay attention, that's not going to listen, and they're going to continue in their ways, and that same money they love so much is going to destroy them.
>> Gehazi got destroyed. Let's read Deuteronomy one more time. 14. 'Cause
>> that law is not there for no reason.
>> 24 >> 24:14, sir.
>> The book of Deuteronomy chapter 24:14.
>> Thou shalt not have in thine house diverse measures, a great and a small, but thou shalt have a perfect and just weight, perfect and just measure shalt thou have, that thy days may be lengthened in the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee. You want to deal right because what? You want to live long in the land that the Most High give you. Message.
>> So today we're going to keep the law so we can have eternal life. Give me Proverbs 8:32. Proverbs 8:32.
>> "Now therefore, hearken unto me, O ye children, for blessed are they that keep my ways." Blessed are they that keep my ways. You want to be blessed. You're going to read the Bible. You're going to understand it. And then you're going to keep what it says to do. Go ahead. "Hear instruction and be wise. Hear instruction and be wise. And refuse it not." And do what? "And refuse it not."
>> Refuse it not. Because if you receive I if you refuse the instruction of God, you're choosing what? Death. Three. "Blessed is the man that heareth me, watching daily at my gates, waiting at the posts of my doors." I She's like, we have to you. I mean, things are going too smooth, man. We got to do something. Let me make a phone call. Who y'all was calling? Jesus. He will not answer. That's not how you call the Lord. Sound like a pastor now. Yeah, I got Jesus's phone number on my phone and people still in that church at that. Same. Everybody should have just this crazy. Go ahead. Read.
"Blessed is the man that heareth me, watching daily at my gates." Blessed is the man that do what? "That heareth me." That heareth me. How do you hear God's words? The Bible. Watching daily at my gate. Where's the gate of the Lord? The Bible. So, you should be meditating on these day and night. And if we do, and when you do those things, you ain't going to do a miss. You're going to know how to deal. Money is not going to take your mind. You're going to fight the lust that's within you. You're going to know how to deal with your brothers and sisters righteously. Go ahead. "Waiting at the posts of my doors. For whosoever findeth me findeth life." Who so findeth me findeth what? Findeth life. Whoso findeth me findeth life. Go ahead. "And shall obtain favor of the Lord."
>> Uh-huh.
>> "But he that sinneth against me." And he that sinneth against me. So you get favor from the Lord if you find if you if you uh watch daily at his gate and keep his saying. But if you sin against the Lord, that means that you choose, you read it, you know what it says, and you choose not to apply it and do the opposite of what's written. Go ahead.
"But he that sinneth against me wrongeth his own soul."
>> It's going to be bad for you.
>> Hit the ball.
>> It's going to be bad for you. Now, I know mainly we've been ste we've been dealing with stealing and covetousness, but that didn't come past sin is sin. So we all need to take inventory of ourselves and see, okay, in all my ways, am I going against the Lord? Am I sinning? So the only way to know is only if you read the Bible, then you'll know your attitude, your ways is not conducive to what the Bible says. Read 20 uh 36 again.
>> Yes, sir.
>> "But he that sinneth against me wrongeth his own soul." He that sinneth against me wrongeth his own soul. Go ahead. "All they all they that hate me love death." All they that hate me love what? Love death. Love what? Love death. So how do you show you hate God? You hate God when he say do A. You choose to do B.
>> Follow.
>> Most High say um obey your Lord for sisters. She is like obey my Lord. I am the Lord.
>> I don't obey nobody. You love death. As I said, in every aspect of your life, measure it up to the scriptures. That's how you know whether or not you're living according to the law, statutes, and commandments. Whatever the law says, look at your actions and say, "Okay, what I just say just now, what I'm doing right now, can I back it up with the Lord I said do it, or can I back it up with the Lord? I said don't do it." It's easy to see where you stand, but you It's almost impossible for you to see where you stand except you what?
>> Except let me see who's paying attention. I want something that we just read in this in the same verse. Go ahead, Mike. Except you do what?
>> Except to be in a sin.
>> You're not paying attention. Read verse 34 again for him. Verse 34. "Blessed is the man that heareth me, watching daily at my gates, waiting at the post of my doors." That's it. If you do these things, you're going to be all right. You ain't got nothing nothing to worry about because the word is going to be in you. So whenever life get at you, you're going to be able to do the right thing. Uh real work. Wisdom of Solomon chapter 2. 'Cause life is going to get at you. Believe it or not, this is not a walk in the park.
>> Uh yeah, wisdom of Solomon chapter 2 and verse 17.
>> Start at uh 13.
>> Verse 13.
>> "He professeth to have the knowledge of God."
>> No, start at 12.
>> Verse 12. "Therefore let us lying wait for the righteous." So you say you righteous. Okay. The wicked say, you know what? Oh, you righteous. All right, I'mma lay some traps for you. Go ahead. "Because he is not for our turn and he is clean contrary to our doings." The way we living our life, we're contrary to the world. Go ahead. "He arraided us with our offending the law." We all we teach, we talk against the system, against what's going on out here. Go ahead.
>> "In objective to our infamy, the transgressions of our education."
>> So everything they're doing here is wrong. Go ahead. "He professes to have the knowledge of God." We say we have the knowledge of God. All of us say that, right? Go ahead. "And he calling himself the child of the Lord." We call ourselves the children of the Lord. Go ahead. "He was made to reprove our thoughts." The the wicked know what the righteous was created for. Pay attention. Read.
>> "He is grievous unto us even to behold."
>> They hate the sight of you. Go ahead.
>> "For his life is not like other men's."
>> "His ways are of another fashion."
>> We got fringes. We got beards. You know what I'm saying? We keeping the laws. We're doing all these things. Go ahead. "We are esteemed of him as counterfeits." We say they're fake Jews. They're fake Christians. Go ahead. "He abstained from our ways as from filthiness." We don't do the Halloweens. We don't do the Fourth of July. We don't do the Christmas, the Valentine's Day. We don't do those things. Those are filth. Go ahead. "He pronounceth the end of the just to be blessed and maketh his boast that God is his father."
>> We boasting that we are the sons of the living God. God is our father and we are blessed. We're going to inherit the kingdom and have Esau in chains. Go ahead. "Let us see if his words be true." You see, you talk a good one, but are you doing what you're supposed to be doing? Because you see, as you talking that good one, you're going to get tested. You're going to get tested. You're going to be put in situation where you're going to have to back up those words. Go ahead. "Let us see if his words be true and let us prove what shall happen in the end of him." So now, how would you survive if you're not if you're not for real? How would you survive if it's just a show? What I mean by it's just a show, you love coming here putting your best Sabbath face. Meanwhile, back in the reigns, you don't want to do nothing. The Bible says you're the devil incarnate. You're doing bad dealings. You're running your mouth against your Lord. Like not you're not about these laws. So when your trial comes, how you going to survive? So take heed. Go to our Sarak 21 and 2.
>> Sarak chapter 21 and verse two.
>> "Flee from sin as from the face of a serpent." Flee from sin as from the face of a serpent. Don't play with it. Don't caress it. Don't charm it. When you see sin, you flee from it as from the face of a serpent. Read. "If thou comest too near it, it will bite thee." If you come too close, it's going to bite you. And some of you are playing with sin so so much. You are in what a snake got a what you call a striking distance. Just because you see it coiled in a little section, that doesn't mean because let's say you you you are one feet away from it, his striking distance could be two feet. But because it's all coiled up, you think you're safe until it's too late. By the time you trying to run, he bites you because by the time you take two steps, you get to a feet and a half, he's striking. This is his two feet. You're done. But you play with it. You never read about Joseph, how he put his Nikes on when he was out 'cause he knew how to stay there for one second. The way she was charming him. Remember, he never had nothing before. He never had uh he never slept with a woman. So, what you think uh uh um happened when she take hold of him? Blood start flowing and he like, "Oh, damn. If I don't run, I'm done." But a lot of us like to play with sin. Let me entertain it some more. And you end up in in the deep mid clay. You end up in the dung hill. We got to use the word of the Bible. Like because we're doing radio shows and we send some tapes that like, yo, we n we got to you got to censor those things. So instead of sugar, honey, icy, we're going to have to use the Bible word dung. That we could say it. So uh keep reading. "The teeth thereof are as the teeth of a lion slaying the souls of men." So the teeth thereof is as the teeth as a lion slaying the soul of men. When you read first Peter 5:8, it says what? The devil's out there like a raging lion roaming about seeking whom he may devour. Just looking at everybody just smell you. Damn, everybody smell good today. All right, I'll come back tomorrow. Tomorrow like something different about you today. And then heads off. You're done. Why? Because you entertain your sins. You have to keep yourself in the laws. Finish the verse. "Slaying the souls of men."
>> Uh-huh.
>> All it. Give me second Ezra 16:61.
>> 2 Ezra chapter 16 and verse 61.
>> "He made man and put heart put his heart in the midst of the body and gave him breath, life and understanding." So God is the one that that created us. All for that alone, you should know you can't hide nothing from him. He gave you the mind. He gave you the heart. He gave you the lungs. He gave you everything you got. But why would you trying to hide things from the Lord? You think you're going to get away with it? You stupid. Go ahead. "Yea, in the spirit of Almighty God, which made all things and searcheth out all hidden things in the secrets of the earth." He knows every secret things and the hidden things of this earth. Read your Bible. That might put the fear of the Lord in you. And stop sinning. Go ahead. "Surely he knoweth your invention." No. Maybe. "Surely he knoweth your inventions." He knows everything you're doing. He knows the evil thoughts you had. He knows how you trying to, you know, doing all kinds of evil. He knows everything. Go ahead. "And what you think in your hearts." And what you think in your heart. Men may not know what's in your heart, but the Lord knows.
>> Go ahead.
>> "Even them that sin and would hide their sin." So you sin and you hiding it. You think nobody knows? Well, the Lord knows. You're supposed to fear God, not men. What can men do to you? Why? Put you out the body. The Lord can PUT YOU OUT OF THIS EARTH. You should be scared of that. And if you're scared of that, you ain't got to worry about man putting you out the body. 'Cause if you're keeping the law, nobody's going to judge you. Read. "Therefore had the Lord exactly searched out all your works, and he will put you all to shame." He will do what? Put you all to shame. The Lord always will put you to shame if you keep your sins up. You ain't getting away with nothing. Go ahead.
"And when your sins are brought forth,"
"And when your sins are brought forth," go ahead.
>> "Ye shall be ashamed." You shall be ashamed. Now there's two types of shame. You got shame of this world and you got the righteous shame that's going to bring you to repentance. If your shame is the shame of this world, you dead already. You need to be having the shame that's going to bring you to repentance. Read.
"And when your sins are brought forth, ye shall be ashamed before menhu. And your own sins shall be your accusers in that day."
>> So you see, you can't hate me. You can't hate anybody because your sins come out. It's your own sins that's accusing you on that day. Did you do it? Yes, I did. So, bro, you can't be mad at me. If anything, you should be happy that I find out about your sins because with these scriptures from the L from the scriptures, I mean, with the scriptures from the Lord, we are trying to help you get your mind right. So, don't get sad, get glad. Read.
"What will you do? Or how will you hide your sins before God and his angels? Behold, God himself is the judge. Fear him."
>> Fear him. Go ahead.
>> "Leave off from your sins. Live off from your sin. God himself is the judge."
>> Not me, not anybody. God himself is the judge. He uses us as mouthpieces. But the words that we using is straight from the Lord.
>> That's right.
>> Read. "And forget your iniquities." And forget your iniquity. Leave them alone. Stop doing the evil that you're doing. Take inventory of yourself and develop what you call a conscience and be like, you know what? I'm tired of being that person. I want to change and I want to live my life according to the law, statutes, and commandments. Read to me no more with with them forever.
>> To do what?
>> To me no more with them forever.
>> To me with them no more forever.
>> Go ahead. "So shall God lead you forth and deliver you from all trouble." So that's the only way God is going to lead you forth and deliver you from all trouble.
>> You're going to learn today.
>> But when you sitting down, you're going to have secret sins. That's why you see you're always getting sick. Something is always wrong with you. As much as you steal, you never have money. I mean, if you're stealing, you should be the paid. You look more like the maid.
>> You follow? So we have to be mindful. Read.
>> That was it. Well, that was it. Yes, sir.
>> Um, >> uh, 10:59, uh, one scripture. Um, so Isaiah 5:55, we ended with that. Uh, 6 through 9. Let's go. Let's go. Let's go. Isaiah chapter 55 and verse 6.
Six. "Seek ye the Lord while he may be found." So, seek ye the Lord while he may be found. Like right now, you can't find the Lord because the Lord is looking for you. Otherwise, classes like this wouldn't come out. Go ahead. "Call ye upon him while he is near." Uh-huh. "Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts." And his the unrighteous man his thought because all the trials of men are his own reasoning. You have a way of thinking and you got the Lord's way of thinking. So pick pick the Lord's way. Let go of your own wicked ways. Go ahead. "And let him return unto the Lord." Do what?
>> "Let him return unto the Lord."
>> Return unto the Lord. Go ahead.
>> "And he will have mercy upon him."
>> He will do what?
>> "And he will have mercy upon him."
>> He will have mercy upon you. Go ahead. "And to our God, for he will abundantly pardon." He will do what?
>> "He will abundantly pardon."
>> He will abundantly pardon. Come on, brother.
>> Go ahead.
>> "For my thoughts are not your thoughts."
>> The Lord's thought is not your thought. "Neither are your ways my ways."
>> Neither your ways my uh the Lord's ways,
>> "saith the Lord." Uh-huh. "For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways." So which way should we pick?
>> That's >> the Lord's ways.
>> Right?
