I INVITE YOU TO BOW YOUR HEADS 07:52 WITH ME AS WE GO TO THE LORD IN PRAYER. 07:57 HEAVENLY FATHER, THIS IS AN OPPORTUNITY, LORD, FOR YOUR HOLY 08:02 SPIRIT TO WORK IN US AND THROUGH US. 08:05 I COMMIT MYSELF TO YOU NOW, LORD, TO TAKE THIS TIME AND 08:09 GLORIFY YOUR NAME IN JESUS' NAME I PRAY, AMEN. 08:14 THE MESSAGE IS SIMPLY ENTITLED "EROSION." 08:19 EROSION. PSALM 11:3 IS THE VERSE OF 08:26 CONSIDERATION. A POWERFUL VERSE, RELEVANT TO 08:30 THE TIMES IN WHICH WE LIFE. THE PSALMIST DAVID WRITES IF THE 08:36 FOUNDATIONS ARE DESTROYED, WHAT CAN THE RIGHTEOUS DO? 08:42 ON MARCH 12th, 1928 AT 11:56 P.M., THE RESIDENTS OF A 08:48 DOWNSTREAM TOWN HAD NO IDEA THAT IN JUST ONE MORE MINUTE, THE 08:53 ENTIRE TOWN WOULD BE SWEPT INTO ETERNITY. 08:57 AT 11:57 P.M., A 205-FOOT WALL OF THE St. FRANCIS DAM 09:05 EXPLODED, SENDING MILLIONS OF GALLONS OF WATER ON A VICIOUS 09:10 TEN-MILE DEATH MARCH. IT DESTROYED THE TOWN LOCATED 09:17 WHERE PRESENTLY SANTA CLARITA, CALIFORNIA, NOW EXISTS. 09:21 WHEN THE TRAGEDY WAS INVESTIGATED, THE BUILDER, 09:24 WILLIAM MULHOLLAND ADMITTED THAT HE SAW CRACKS DEVELOPING IN THE 09:29 WALL. HE SAW THE CRACKS DEVELOPING IN 09:30 THE WALL OF THE St. FRANCIS DAM. 09:33 AND HE SAID, AND I QUOTE, I SAW WATER SEEPING THROUGH THE WALLS. 09:40 THE ARTICLE SAYS MULHOLLAND ALONG WITH HIS ASSISTANT CHIEF 09:45 ENGINEER AND GENERAL MANAGER HARVEY VAN NORMAN EXPECTED THE 09:48 CRACKS AND LEAKS AND HE JUDGED THEM TO BE WITHIN EXPECTATIONS 09:53 FOR A CONCRETE DAM THE SIZE OF St. FRANCIS. 09:58 IT TOOK LESS THAN TWO YEARS FOR THE WALLS OF THE St. FRANCIS 10:02 DAM TO FAIL. IT TOOK LESS THAN TWO YEARS FOR 10:08 EROSION TO CLAIM 431 LIVES. BUT THE QUESTION IS, IF THE 10:14 RESIDENTS DOWNSTREAM HAD KNOWN, WHAT WOULD THEY HAVE DONE? 10:20 THEY DID NOT KNOW THAT THEY HAD LESS THAN TWO YEARS TO LIVE 10:25 AFTER THE St. FRANCIS DAM WAS BUILT. 10:28 MY BROTHERS AND SISTERS, THOSE LISTENING, WE LIVE IN A 10:32 DOWNSTREAM SOCIETY. THE WALLS THAT WERE BUILT FOR 10:35 OUR SECURITY HAVE DEVELOPED CRACKS. 10:38 THE INFRASTRUCTURE DESIGNED FOR OUR SAFETY HAS BEEN ERODED. 10:44 THE DICTIONARY DEFINES EROSION AS FOLLOWS. 10:47 WHEN ENVIRONMENTAL FORCES EAT AWAY AT THE FOUNDATION THAT WAS 10:53 DESIGNED TO SUSTAIN IT, THINK ABOUT THAT FOR A MOMENT. 10:58 NEVER BEFORE HAVE THE EFFECTS OF EROSION BEEN EVIDENT ON SO MANY 11:03 LEVELS. THE APOSTLE PAUL DESCRIBES 11:08 SCENES THAT APPLY WITH PARTICULAR FORCE TO THE LAST 11:11 DAYS, THESE CONDITIONS HAVE RELEVANCE ONLY TO THE LAST DAYS. 11:19 IN 2 TIMOTHY 3:1-5 I READ THE FOLLOWING WORDS: KNOW THAT, THAT 11:26 IN THE LAST DAYS, WHAT DAYS, THE LAST DAYS, PERILOUS TIMES WILL 11:30 COME. FOR MEN WILL BE LOVERS OF 11:33 THEMSELVES, THE BIBLE SAYS, LOVERS OF MONEY, BOASTERS, 11:45 PROUD, BLAST IF MOUSE, DISOBEDIENT TO PARENTS, 11:50 UNLOVING, UNFORGIVING, THE LAST DAYS, SLANDERERS WITHOUT 11:54 SELF-CONTROL, BRUTAL, DESPISERS OF THOSE THAT ARE GOOD, 11:59 TRAITORS, PETTY, HAUGHTY, LOVERS OF PLEASURE RATHER THAN LOVERS 12:04 OF GOD. HAVING A FORM OF GODLINESS, THE 12:07 BIBLE SAYS, BUT DENYING THE POWER THEREOF, AND FROM SUCH WE 12:11 ARE TOLD TURN AWAY. THE EFFECTS OF EROSION TAKE TIME 12:17 TO BECOME OBVIOUS. THE APOSTLE PAUL WAS GIVEN A 12:21 GLIMPSE OF THE EROSIVE CONDITIONS THAT NEEDED AN 12:27 EXTENDED PERIOD OF TIME TO TO BECOME CLEAR. 12:30 YOU KNOW, THERE ARE THINGS WE BEGIN TO UNDERSTAND TODAY THAT 12:33 WE COULD NOT UNDERSTAND EVEN TEN YEARS AGO. 12:36 AM I TELLING THE TRUTH? THERE ARE THINGS WE'RE SEEING 12:39 BOTH ECONOMICALLY, SOCIALLY, POLITICALLY, FINANCIALLY, 12:42 MORALLY, SOCIETALLY, THAT DID NOT MAKE SENSE UNTIL JUST A YEAR 12:47 OR TWO AGO OR THREE YEARS AGO OR FIVE YEARS AGO. 12:51 INVENTIONS ARE COMING TO THE FOREFRONT THAT WE ARE BEGINNING 12:54 TO UNDERSTAND EVEN THE DEVELOPERS OF SOCIAL MEDIA ARE 12:59 BEGINNING TO REGRESS THE EROSIVE EFFECTS OF PLATFORMS LIKE 13:04 FACEBOOK. I LISTENED TO AN INTERVIEW OF A 13:07 YOUNG INDIAN MAN THAT BECAME A MULTIMILLIONAIRE THROUGH THE 13:10 DEVELOPMENT OF FACEBOOK AND HE SAID WITH TEARS, I DON'T GIVE 13:14 CELLPHONES TO MY CHILDREN. I REGRET BEING INVOLVED IN 13:22 SOMETHING THAT HAS BEEN A DESTRUCTION TO OUR SOCIETY BUT 13:25 IT TAKES TIME FOR EROSION TO BECOME OBVIOUS. 13:28 THE CRUMBLING SOCIETY THAT SURROUNDS US WAS PRODUCED BY 13:32 EROSION. BUT THE PROBLEM WITH EROSION IS 13:37 THIS. AFTER THE FACT, EVERYBODY KNOWS 13:39 WHAT THEY SHOULD HAVE DONE DIFFERENTLY BEFORE THE FACT. 13:43 A GREEK POET BY THE NAME OF HOMER SAID THIS, POWERFUL 13:50 STATEMENT. HE SAID AFTER THE EVENT EVEN A 13:52 POOL IS WISE -- EVEN A FOOL IS WISE. 13:55 CONSIDER THE AVENUES OF EROSION. EROSION NUMBER ONE, DISTORTED 14:00 PSYCHOLOGY, HAS RESULTED IN THE EROSION OF PARENTAL AUTHORITY. 14:03 LET ME SPEAK WITH THE PARENTS FOR A MOMENT. 14:05 WHEN A CHILD CAN THREAT AN PARENT, WITHOUT ANY FEAR OF 14:09 DISCIPLINARY REPERCUSSIONS AND HAVE THE SUPPORT OF A LEGAL 14:13 SYSTEM, EROSION HAS TAKEN PLACE. WHEN I WAS A CHILD, I GREW UP ON 14:20 A DIFFERENT WORLD. COME ON, SOMEBODY. 14:22 WHEN I GREW UP, THE PHRASE THE BOTTOM LINE MEANT SOMETHING 14:28 QUITE DIFFERENT. I WAS TAUGHT CERTAIN BIBLE 14:30 VERSES AT CERTAIN MEMORABLE OCCASIONS. 14:34 WHEN THE BIBLE SAYS FOOLISHNESS IS BOUND IN THE HEART OF A CHILD 14:37 BUT THE ROD OF CORRECTION WILL DRIVE IT FAR FROM HIM, I 14:40 UNDERSTOOD WHAT THAT MEANT. ANYBODY ELSE? 14:43 WE LIVE IN A DOWNSTREAM SOCIETY. A DIFFERENT WORLD. 14:48 NOT ONLY DISTORTED PSYCHOLOGY BUT EVIDENCE OF EROSION NUMBER 14:54 TWO, MORAL DECLINE. CAN I SPEND A TWO-YEAR PERIOD ON 15:00 THAT. MORAL DECLINE IS THE EVIL THAT 15:01 HAS LED TO THE EROTATION OF FAMILY VALUES. 15:04 EROSION. THE BIBLICAL FAMILY REVOLVES 15:07 AROUND THE HUSBAND AND THE WIFE. GOD FIRST, HUSBAND AND WIFE 15:11 SECOND, CHILD LAST. HAVING CHILDREN USED TO BE 15:15 RESULT OF GETTING MARRIED FIRST. IF I HAD MORE TIME, I WOULD BE 15:24 SILENT LONGER. BUT THE MODERN FAMILY REVOLVES 15:27 AROUND THE CHILD. LOOK AT THIS. 15:30 CHILDREN FIRST, LOOK AT THEM IN WALMART. 15:32 LOOK AT THEM IN THE MALL. CHILDREN FIRST. 15:35 HUSBAND AND WIFE SECOND. GOD LAST. 15:39 CHILDREN ARE WORSHIPED IN PLACE OF GOD BUT A CHILD THAT DOES NOT 15:44 ACKNOWLEDGE GOD IS OFTEN SURROUNDED BY LITTLE GODS. 15:47 THEIR CELLPHONES, THEIR COMPUTERS. 15:49 THEY IDOLIZE THEMSELVES. WE LIVE IN A GENERATION WHERE 15:51 PEOPLE CANNOT WALK PAST A MIRROR. 15:55 WITHOUT STOPPING FOR A BRIEF WORSHIP SESSION OF THEMSELVES. 16:00 CHILDREN THAT DO NOT KNOW GOD WILL NOT RESPECT THEIR PARENTS. 16:03 CAN I GET AN AMEN. THAT'S WHY THE WISEMAN SAID 16:07 TRAIN UP A CHILD IN THE WAY HE SHOULD GO. 16:11 WHEN I WAS GROWING UP, I DIDN'T GET OPTIONS WHEN SABBATH CAME. 16:14 YOU WANT TO STAY HOME, I NEVER GOT THAT QUESTION. 16:17 IF I WAS ALIVE AND MY LEGS WERE MOVING I WAS IN CHURCH. 16:20 ANYBODY ELSE, CAN YOU SAY AMEN. DO YOU WANT TO GO TO CHURCH. 16:24 STAY HOME, WE GIVE CHILDREN CHECKBOXES NOWADAYS. 16:27 WHEN I WAS GROWING UP IT WAS EITHER ONE WAY OR THE OTHER. 16:32 IT WAS THEIR WAY OR THE HIGHWAY. CAN I GET AN AMEN. 16:35 TRAIN UP A CHILD IN THE WAY HE SHOULD GO AND WHEN HE IS OLD, HE 16:38 WILL NOT DEPART FROM IT. THANK GOD AS I GOT OLDER, I 16:42 REMEMBER WHAT HAPPENED WHEN I WAS A CHILD. 16:45 NOT ONLY THAT, CORRUPTION ON THE LEVEL OF ENTERTAINMENT, CORRUPT 16:50 ENTERTAINMENT HAS LED TO THE EROSION OF ETHICAL VALUES. 16:56 EROSION OCCURS WHEN WE EXPOSE OUR CHILDREN TO ENTERTAINMENT 16:59 THAT SUPPORT PRACTICES THAT CONFLICT WITH THE SCRIPTURES. 17:03 THINK ABOUT IT. THE TELEVISION SHOWS NOWADAYS. 17:08 THE MODERN FAMILY IS ATTACKING THE BIBLICAL FAMILY. 17:14 PROMISCUITY IS UNRAVELING MODESTY. 17:20 LITTLE GIRLS DON'T LOOK LIKE LITTLE GIRLS ANYMORE. 17:23 WHO DO WE BLAME? I BLAME THE PARENTS BUYING THE 17:27 CLOTHES. INNOCENCE IS BEING DESIGNED 17:29 AWAY. EROSION. 17:29 NOT ONLY THAT, SEXUAL IMMORALITY IS ERODING SOCIETAL VALUES. 17:36 FAMILY VALUES. MARITAL VALUES. 17:39 THE MARRIAGE IS UNDER ATTACK BECAUSE OF SEXUAL IMMORALITY. 17:48 IT'S TIME TO GIVE BACK THE VALUES BETWEEN GOD AND OUR 17:51 SPOUSES. AMEN. 17:52 HOMOSEXUALITY IS LAUGHING ITS WAY INTO THE HEARTS OF OUR 17:55 CHILDREN AND I DON'T CARE WHETHER OR NOT IT IS LEGAL. 18:02 GENDER OUT. I SAW A SIGN THAT SAID GENDER IS 18:05 OUT. AS OF 2018, THERE ARE 112 18:08 GENDERS. I'M SO GLAD I'M NOT MIXED UP IN 18:14 THAT CATEGORY. AMEN, AMEN. 18:17 THAT'S A DOUBLE AMEN. AND I PRAISE THE LORD AT THE END 18:20 OF THAT. WHAT'S THE PROBLEM? 18:23 PAUL DESCRIBES IN ROMANS 1:28, HE SAID THEY DID NOT LIKE TO 18:27 RETAIN GOD IN THEIR KNOWLEDGE. GOD GAVE THEM OVER TO A DEBASED 18:33 MIND TO DO THINGS WHICH ARE NOT FITTING OUR SOCIETY IN OUR 18:37 SOCIETY TODAY, PEOPLE DO THINGS THAT DOGS WON'T DO. 18:43 EROSION. IT TAKES TIME FOR MEN'S MINDS TO 18:46 BECOME DEBASED TO THE POINT WHERE THEY NO LONGER FEEL EVEN 18:50 THE NEED TO THINK MORALITY. BUT IT GOES ON. 18:54 CATEGORY NUMBER FOUR. UNQUENCHABLE THIRST FOR 18:58 TECHNOLOGY HAS RESULTED IN THE EROSION OF PRIVACY. 19:01 MILLENNIALS ARE SOCIALLY SATURATED AND RELATIONALLY 19:05 DISCONNECTED. THINK ABOUT IT. 19:07 THEY DON'T KNOW HOW TO HAVE A BASIC CONVERSATION ANYMORE. 19:10 YOU MEET A YOUNG PERSON NOWADAYS, IT'S LIKE THEY SAW 19:13 THEMSELVES IN THE MIRROR. THEY DON'T KNOW WHETHER TO SAY 19:15 HELLO OR DROP DEAD. THEY HAVE NOT BEEN TAUGHT HOW TO 19:20 STICK THEIR HAND OUT AND SAY GOOD AFTERNOON, MA'AM, GOOD 19:22 AFTERNOON, SIR, ANYBODY KNOW WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT? 19:26 WIFI HAS FINALLY ACCOMPLISHED ITS PURPOSE. 19:28 LISTEN CAREFULLY. WE ARE NO LONGER CONNECTED. 19:33 NOW, YOU GET THAT ON MONDAY. WIFI NO LONGER CONNECTED, ARE 19:40 YOU GETTING IT? RECEIVING A TEXT USED TO MEAN 19:45 SOMEBODY GAVE YOU A BIBLE VERSE. BUT NOWADAYS WE LIVE IN MYSPACE, 19:49 FACEBOOK, TWITTER, SNAPCHAT, THAT'S ALWAYS IN OUR FACE. 19:54 ADD ALL THE OTHERS TO IT, INSTAGRAM. 19:58 THAT'S RIGHT. BETTER BEING ERODED, SOCIALLY, 20:01 MORALLY, ECONOMICALLY, BUT IT KEEPS GOING ON. 20:02 I WISH I COULD STOP BUT THE CATEGORIES KEEP MOUNTING. 20:06 WHAT ABOUT ECONOMIC INSTABILITY THAT HAS GIVEN BIRTH TO EROSION 20:10 OF FINANCIAL SECURITY. RIGHT NOW WE ARE GLORIFYING THE 20:14 FACT THAT THE STOCK MARKET IS UP BUT YOU BETTER HOLD YOUR BREATH. 20:17 AND SECONDLY YOU BETTER GET ON YOUR KNEES. 20:20 COME ON, SOMEBODY. BECAUSE WE HAVE NEVER LIVED IN A 20:23 WORLD WHERE THE STOCK MARKET HAS NOT COME DOWN AND OUR FUTURE CAN 20:26 ONLY BE SECURE IN THE HAND OF THE LORD WHO HAS MADE THE 20:31 PROMISE AND MY GOD SHALL SUPPLY ALL OF YOUR NEEDS ACCORDING TO 20:36 WHAT, HIS RICHES AND GLORY. I LOVE BY PHILIPPIANS 4:19. 20:40 I DON'T LIVE BY PARTY. I DON'T LIVE BY REPUBLICAN OR 20:43 DEMOCRAT. I LIVE BY DIVINITY. 20:45 COME ON, SOMEBODY. THE APOSTLE PAUL WROTE THAT 20:48 EROSION WOULD EVEN CREATE LOVERS OF MONEY. 20:50 YOU KNOW HOW YOU CAN TELL THAT EROSION HAS CREATED LOVERS OF 20:55 MONEY, EROSION OCCURS WHEN MONEY BECOMES MORE IMPORTANT THAN 21:00 MORALITY. DON'T THINK ABOUT THAT TOO LONG, 21:04 YOU MIGHT WAKE UP. OUR WORLD WHERE TRADING A STABLE 21:10 ECONOMY FOR AN UNSTABLE SOCIETY, DON'T LET ME START TALKING ABOUT 21:16 HOW IT AFFECTS THE CHURCH. HELP ME, LORD. 21:23 UNJUST JUDICIAL VERDICTS HAVE GIVEN WAY TO THE EROSION OF 21:26 HUMAN RIGHTS. ETHNIC INTOLERANCE HAS GIVEN 21:31 BIRTH TO THE EROTATION OF RESPECT REGARDLESS OF 21:34 NATIONALITY. NO AMEN NECESSARY. 21:48 EROSION OCCURS WHEN RACIAL INJUSTICE FINDS ITS WAY INTO THE 21:50 CHURCH. NO AMENS NECESSARY. 21:52 THE EROSION IS WHEN THE AGENDA OF A FEW ARE MORE IMPORTANT THAN 21:56 THE RIGHTS OF MANY. CALL IT WHAT THEY MAY, WE HAVE 22:01 ARRIVED AT A TIME WHERE WE CANNOT IDENTITY CHRISTIANITY BY 22:04 WHAT THEY PROFESS, WE HAVE TO EXAMINE THEIR FRUITS BECAUSE 22:08 ANYBODY CAN SAY ANYTHING. ANYBODY CAN CARRY A LABEL, BUT 22:12 READ THE CONTENT. COME ON, SOMEBODY. 22:16 BIBLE SAYS YOU WILL KNOW THEM BY THEIR FRUITS, MATTHEW 7:16. 22:20 DO MEN GATHER GRAPES FROM THORN BUSHES? 22:23 WHAT'S THE ANSWER, NO. OR FIGS FROM THISTLES. 22:25 I READ THIS QUOTATION IN THE GREAT CONTROVERSY, PAGE 602. 22:33 POWERFUL AS IT RELATES TO THE LAST DAYS. 22:34 I WANT YOU TO LISTEN CAREFULLY. WHEN THE TESTING TIME SHALL 22:38 COME. BUT WHAT KIND OF TIME. 22:39 IT'S COMING. PASTOR KENNY WAS TELLING YOU 22:42 ABOUT IT. WHEN THE TESTING TIME SHALL 22:44 COME. THOSE WHO HAVE MADE GOD'S WORDS 22:47 THEIR RULE OF LIFE REVEALED AND THERE IS NO NOTICEABLE 22:53 DIFFERENCE BETWEEN EVERGREEN AND OTHER TREES. 22:55 BUT WHEN THE BLAST OF WINTER COMES, THE EVERGREEN REMAINS 23:00 UNCHANGED WHILE THE OTHER TREES ARE STRIPPED OF THEIR FOLIAGE, 23:03 LORD HAVE MERCY, SOME OF US ARE GOING TO BE STRIPPED OF OUR 23:08 FOLIAGE BECAUSE WE HAVE NOT BUILT ON A FOUNDATION THAT 23:11 CANNOT BE ERODED BY TIME AND SOCIETY. 23:13 SHE GOES ON TO SAY SO THE PROFESSOR MAY NOT NOW BE 23:24 DISTINGUISHED FROM THE REAL CRANE -- CHRISTIAN BUT THE TIME 23:28 IS UPON US, WHEN PERSECUTION BE KINDLED, AND THE HALFHEARTED AND 23:39 HYPOCRITICAL WILL WAVER AND YIELD THEIR FAITH BUT THE TRUE 23:44 CHRISTIAN WILL STAND FIRM AS A ROCK. 23:46 HIS FAITH STRONGER, HIS HOPE BRIGHTER THAN IN DAYS OF 23:52 PROSPERITY. WHAT THE SERVANT OF GOD IS 23:54 SAYING SIT TAKES DIFFICULT TIMES FOR REAL CHRISTIANS TO BE CLEAR. 23:58 IT TAKES TOUGH TIMES, TIMES OF EXAMINATION, TIMES OF 24:02 PERSECUTION, GOD KNOWS WHAT HE'S DOING WHEN HE BRINGS 24:05 PERSECUTION. CAN YOU TELL THE TRUTH? 24:06 IT IS IN THOSE DIFFICULT TIMES THAT OUR BIBLE BECOMES A BOOK OF 24:10 MEANING. IT'S NOT IN TIMES OF PROSPERITY 24:12 THAT WE ENJOY THE VALIDITY OF OUR RELIGIOUS WALK. 24:15 IT'S WHEN DIFFICULTY COMES THAT ALL OF A SUDDEN VERSES THAT WE 24:19 SCANNED OVER BECOME VERSES THAT WE NOW DIGEST. 24:23 BUT IT GETS EVEN DEEPER THAN THAT. 24:26 EROSION HAS AFFECTED ANOTHER LEVEL. 24:29 IT HAS TAKEN AMERICA 243 YEARS TO GET TO WHERE IT IS TODAY AND 24:32 SATAN HAS BEEN WORKING ON THE EROSION OF AMERICA SINCE IT 24:37 BECAME A NATION. GOD ESTABLISHED AMERICA TO BE A 24:42 NATION BASED ON THE CHRISTIAN PRINCIPLES OF THE BIBLE. 24:47 HEAR ME CAREFULLY BECAUSE I CAN'T STOP THERE. 24:49 GOD DID NOT CREATE A NATION WITH RELIGIOUS INTOLERANCE TO BE AT 24:53 ITS FOUNDATION. GOD DID NOT CREATE THIS NATION 24:56 TO BE A PLACE WHERE WE CAN TELL OTHERS WHAT AND HOW THEY CAN AND 24:59 CANNOT WORSHIP. GOD CREATED AMERICA SO THAT 25:03 RELIGIOUS INTOLERANCE WILL NOT BE A PART OF ITS FABRIC. 25:06 ARE YOU HEARING ME TODAY? WE ARE BECOMING A NATION WHETHER 25:08 EVEN IN THE RELIGIOUS CIRCLES, RELIGION IS BECOMING A LITMUS 25:12 TEST FOR OFFICE. I DON'T NEED MY PRESIDENT TO BE 25:15 A CHRISTIAN. I NEED TO FOLLOW CHRIST. 25:20 WHAT YOU BELIEVE HAS NO FOUNDATION IN MY WALK WITH JESUS 25:23 ON A DAILY BASIS. HOW YOU EAT DOES NOT AFFECT HOW 25:26 I EAT. HOW YOU DRESS DOES NOT AFFECT 25:28 HOW I DRESS. CAN I BE CLEAR TO YOU TODAY? 25:31 WE ARE SAYING IS HE CHRISTIAN. IT DOESN'T MATTER WHETHER HE'S 25:35 CHRISTIAN. CHRIST IS OUR FOCUS. 25:38 IT DOESN'T MATTER WHAT THE WHITE HOUSE DOES, IT'S WHAT THE RIGHT 25:44 HOUSE HAS ALWAYS DONE, IT'S THE FOUNDATION THERE. 25:47 HOLD ME BACK, HOLY GHOST. DON'T FORGET WHAT WE OVERLOOK AS 25:53 INNOCUOUS EVENTUALLY REVEALS ITSELF AS DANGEROUS. 25:55 WHAT WE DISMISS AS IRRELEVANT WILL PROVE TO BE CONSEQUENTIAL 26:00 BUT THE MORE SOBERING FOCUS ON THIS MESSAGE IS NOT THE EROSION 26:07 OF THE WORLD BUT THE EROSION OF GOD'S REMNANT CHURCH. 26:13 EROSION BEGINS EVER SO SLIGHTLY THAT IT LEADS US TO IGNORE ITS 26:19 EXISTENCE. I CAN GO BACK TO WHAT IT WAS 26:21 LIKE TO BE A YOUNG SEVENTH DAY ADVENTIST CHRISTIAN. 26:25 I REMEMBER THE DAYS WHEN I WAS JUST HOLDING ON BY A THREAD. 26:30 WHEN I JUST GOT BACK INTO THE CHURCH. 26:32 I JUST TRIED TO FIND A WAY TO BE SAVED AND NOT LIVE BY THE TRUTH. 26:36 THE LORD SAYS THAT'S NOT THE WAY IT'S GOING TO BE. 26:38 HE SENT A YOUNG LADY WHO IS NOW MY WIFE TO BRING ME BACK TO A 26:41 FOUNDATION BUILT ON THE TRUTH OF GOD'S WORD. 26:43 I'M AMAZED HOW TODAY IN MANY OF OUR CIRCLES, IN MANY OF OUR OWN 26:49 RELIGIOUS CIRCLES THE VERY THING THAT THE FOUNDATION OF OUR 26:52 GROWTH AS CHRISTIANS ARE BEGINNING TO BE QUESTIONED EVEN 26:57 AMONGST US. EROSION IS WORKING BENEATH THE 27:05 SURFACE, UNRELENTING FORCE THAT CONTINUES TO CHIP AWAY AT THE 27:07 FOUNDATION. IF WE DON'T STOP ITS CHIPPING 27:10 AWAY, BEFORE LONG, THE VERY THINGS WE THOUGHT WERE FIRM 27:12 UNDER OUR FEET WILL BEGIN TO FALL AWAY. 27:15 WE'VE GOT TO PRAY AND HERE'S MY RECOMMENDATION. 27:18 I CAN'T SAY MY EDICT BUT MY RECOMMENDATION. 27:21 YOU HAVE TO HAVE A WALK WITH CHRIST YOURSELF. 27:23 GROOVE -- YOU'VE GOT TO KNOW WHAT YOU BELIEVE YOURSELF. 27:26 YOU CAN'T ASK PRIESTS NOR PASTOR NOR CLERGY NOR EVANGELIST. 27:32 YOU HAVE TO KNOW GOD'S WORD YOURSELF. 27:36 AMEN. YOU CAN'T MISS THE WORLD SO 27:38 TURBULENTLY BORN, YOU CAN'T EVEN LET THE PERIOD OF DIGESTION LULL 27:42 YOU TO SLEEP. YOU HAVE TO STAY AWAKE ALL THE 27:44 TIME BECAUSE THE DEVIL NEVER FALLS ASLEEP EVEN AFTER A MEAL. 27:50 YOU THINK YOU'RE HUNGRY. HE'S WALKING ABOUT LIKE A 27:55 ROARING LION SEEKING WHOM HE MAY DEVOUR. 27:59 HE'S DIGESTING YOU. EROSION IS AS DESTABILIZING THE 28:05 FOUNDATION OF OUR EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM. 28:07 I COULD SPEND A WHOLE LOT OF TIME ON THAT ONE. 28:10 BUT I JUST WANT TO PULL YOUR COATTAILS. 28:13 EROSION IS DESTABILIZING BIBLICAL TRUTHS. 28:16 I'M AMAZED WHEN I MEET OTHER SEVEN-DAY ADVENTIST CHRISTIANS 28:20 AND I SAY THIS AS ONE WHO IS ON THE INSIDE, I'M A PASTOR IN THE 28:24 SEVEN-DAY ADVENTIST CHURCH, I'M AN ORDAINED MINISTER. 28:31 I'VE BEEN IN THIS WORK SINCE 1987 AS A PASTOR. 28:37 PASTOR DOUG BROUGHT ME IN AS HIS ASSISTANT EVANGELIST. 28:40 BUT I'VE BEEN AROUND LONG ENOUGH TO UNDERSTAND THAT THERE ARE 28:44 CERTAIN THINGS THAT WILL CLEAR 70 YEARS AGO THAT DON'T NEED TO 28:49 BE REVISITED. I MEAN, WHEN DID THE SABBATH 29:00 BECOME IRRELEVANT? WHEN DID THE SPIRIT OF PROPHECY 29:06 LOSE ITS VALUE IN OUR CHURCH? EROSION IS DESTABILIZING THE 29:10 FOUNDATION, IT'S DESTABILIZING BIBLICAL TRUTHS. 29:14 TODAY WE HAD PEOPLE QUESTIONING THE ROLE OF DIVINITY AND THE 29:17 HOLY SPIRIT IS NO LONGER RELEVANT IN THE GODHEAD, SOME 29:20 PEOPLE SAY BUT I WANT TO TELL YOU, YOU MESS WITH THAT, YOU 29:23 BLESS THE HOLY SPIRIT, YOUR CARCASS WILL BE ON THE OUTSIDE 29:28 OF NE NEW JERUSALEM BECAUSE GRIEVE NOT THE HOLY SPIRIT, WHEREBY WE ARE SEALED THE DAY OF 29:38 REDEMPTION. I PREFER TO BELIEVE THAT HE, NOT 29:42 IT, HE IS THE THIRD PERSON OF THE GODHEAD. 29:48 EROSION IS YESSI YES -- QUESTIONING THE RELEVANCE OF THE SANCTUARY. 29:52 I'M GOING TO TELL YOU WHAT A CATHOLIC PRIEST SAID. 29:56 A CATHOLIC PRIEST IN CHICAGO IN A SIM PODIUM WITH MANY 30:02 DENOMINATIONAL LEADERS, A CATHOLIC PRIEST SAID THE SEVENTH 30:05 DAY ADVENTIST CHURCH HAS GIFTED THE PROTESTANT WORLD THE PROPER 30:09 UNDERSTANDING OF THE SANCTUARY AND HERE WE HAVE ON OUR OWN 30:13 MIDST FOLKS BEGINNING TO QUESTION THAT. 30:15 THE PREACHING OF THE THREE ANGELS MESSAGES IS VANISHING. 30:19 THAT'S WHY THE LORD IMPRESSED ME TO PUT TOGETHER A BOOKLET ON THE 30:22 THREE ANGELS MESSAGES IN SUMMARY. 30:23 YOU WANT TO GET BUSY, GET THAT INTO THE HANDS OF YOUR 30:27 NEIGHBORS, YOUR FRIENDS. IT IS TIME TO GET BACK TO THE 30:30 FOUNDATION OF OUR MESSAGE. SOMEBODY OUGHT TO SAY AMEN. 30:33 THE SANCTITY OF THE SABBATH IS BEING DISMISSED WITH IMMUNITY. 30:38 PEOPLE -- IMPUNITY. PEOPLE THAT LIVE AT HOME IN 30:40 THEIR OWN COMMUNITY RATHER THAN GETTING LUNCH READY TO GO HOME 30:45 AND EAT THEY'RE GOING TO RESTAURANTS ON THE SABBATH. 30:48 IT'S NOT LIKE THEY'RE NOT HOME. FOLKS THAT KNOW THEIR BODY IS 30:55 THE TEMPLE OF GOD ARE BEGINNING TO DRINK WINE AND THE EXCUSE IS 30:59 IN IT'S SMALL, MODERATE PORTIONS LIKE THE WEARING OF TINY 31:05 JEWELRY. THE BIBLE SPEAKS OF 31:08 ABSINCENANCE, NOT MODESTY WHEN IT COMES TO OUR ADORNING OF OUR 31:12 BODIES. IT IS THE TEMPLE OF GOD ON THE 31:13 INSIDE AND OUTSIDE AND I KNOW THIS IS NOT A POPULAR MESSAGE 31:16 BUT I GAVE UP POPULARITY A LONG TIME AGO. 31:21 LIKE A SILENT PREDATOR, EROSION IS PATIENT AND STEALTHY. 31:26 EROSION'S FOOTSTEPS ARE MUTED BUT ITS RESULTS ARE 31:30 CATASTROPHIC. WHILE METHODS VARY WITH TIME, 31:32 METHODS SHOULD NOT REPLACE THE TRUTH BUT EROSION SEEKS TO 31:35 REPLACE TRUTH WITH THE WORSHIP EXPERIENCE. 31:39 I HEAR A LOT OF PEOPLE TALKING ABOUT GOSPEL EXPLOSIONS. 31:45 GOSPEL EEXPLOSIONS, THAT SHOULD BE OUR EVANGELISTIC THRUST. 31:48 WE'RE HAVING A GOSPEL EXPLOSION. EMPLOY UP NEIGHBORHOODS WITH 31:53 THE GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST. AMEN. 31:57 THAT'S THE ONLY PLACE WHERE WE SHOULD BE EXPLODING IS GETTING 32:03 THE GOSPEL INTO THE COMMUNITY. EVER SINCE WHEN THAT WORSHIP 32:10 EXPERIENCE IS AN EXCUSE FOR ABANDONING TUTH, PEOPLE ASK HOW 32:13 DID YOU FEEL WHEN YOU HEARD THE SERMON. 32:16 IT'S NOT HOW YOU FELT, IT'S WHAT DID IT DO TO YOUR LIFE. 32:18 HOW DID IT GUIDE YOU, NOT HOW YOU FELT. 32:22 JESUS DIDN'T DIE BECAUSE OF HOW HE FELT. 32:24 HE DIED ON A FOUNDATION OF IMMOVEABLE PRINCIPLES. 32:28 BUT THE DEVASTATING IMPACT OF EROSION ONLY BECOMES OBVIOUS IN 32:35 HINDSIGHT. MAKE NO DOUBT ABOUT IT, SATAN IS 32:36 THE ORCHESTRA OR THE OF EROSION. IT'S TAKEN 6,000 YEARS TO REVEAL 32:43 THE EROSIVE EFFECTS THAT BEGAN AS A BATTLE IN HEAVEN. 32:46 BUT THE MOST IMPORTANT QUESTION IS HOW DID THE CHURCH GET TO 32:49 WHERE IT IS TODAY. CAN I TELL YOU? 32:54 GENESIS 2:3, LOOK AT THAT VERY QUICKLY WITH ME. 32:57 A VERY POWERFUL PASSAGE. A VERY POWERFUL PASSAGE. 33:01 EROSION STARTED IN A CONVERSATION, A BASIC 33:05 CONVERSATION BETWEEN A LIAR AND A WOMAN THAT WENT IN THE WRONG 33:10 DIRECTION. WHEN THE CHURCH GOES IN THE 33:11 WRONG DIRECTION, THEY HAVE CONVERSATIONS WITH A LIAR. 33:17 YOU WILL GET THAT ON TUESDAY. THE WOMAN SAID TO THE SERPENT 33:26 VERSE 2 AND 3, WE MAY EAT OF THE FRUIT OF THE TREE OF THE GARDEN, 33:32 BUT OF THE FRUIT OF THE TREE, 2 AND 3, THE WOMAN SAYS WE MAY EAT 33:38 THE FRUIT OF THE TREES OF THE GUAGARDEN BUT THE FRUIT OF THE TREE 33:42 IN THE MIDST OF THE GARDEN GOD HAS SAID YOU SHALL NOT EAT IT 33:47 NOR SHALL YOU TOUCH IT LEST YOU DIE. 33:50 SHE LIED. GOD NEVER SAID DON'T TOUCH SO IT 33:54 THE SERPENT SEIZED THE FRUIT AND PUT IT IN HER HAND AND SINCE SHE 33:59 DID NOT DIE HE SAID YOU WILL NOT SURELY DIE. 34:02 THE WOMAN CHOSE THE WORD OF THE ADVERSARY OVER THE WORD OF GOD. 34:07 THIS IS GOING TO GET DEEP. PUTT ON YOUR SCUBA DIVING GEAR. 34:14 THE WOMAN REPRESENTS THE CHURCH. ANYTIME THE CHURCH IGNORES THE 34:18 WORD OF GOD AND CHOOSES SATAN'S WORD ABOVE THE WORD OF GOD, 34:24 EROSION BEGINS. GOD IS EVEN DEEPER, LISTEN TO 34:31 ADAM TELL ON HIMSELF. GENESIS 3. 34:33 WHEN THE LORD CAME LOOKING FOR CONFESSION, ADAM CAME OUT AND 34:37 BLAMED HIS WIFE. LADIES, YOU CAN HOLD IT TOGETHER 34:41 FOR A MOMENT. HE SAID THE WOMAN YOU GAVE TO BE 34:46 WITH ME, SHE GAVE ME OF THE TREE AND I ATE. 34:51 ADAM TOLD ON HIMSELF. HE DID NOT HAVE TO EAT. 34:55 BUT THOSE THREE WORDS, MY BROTHERS AND SISTERS, PLUNGED US 34:59 INTO THE CONDITIONS THAT WE ARE IN TODAY. 35:01 DO YOU THINK THAT SIN IS INNOCUOUS? 35:07 AND I ATE. THREE WORDS. 35:09 SIN HAS ONLY THREE LETTERS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE WORD SIN IS 35:14 THE LETTER "I." I GOT TO TAKE IT EVEN DEEPER. 35:18 WHEN PASTORS SEIZE THE FRUIT FROM THE HANDS OF A DECEIVED 35:24 WOMAN, A CHURCH GOING IN THE WRONG DIRECTION AND DIGESTS IT, 35:28 ARE YOU LISTENING, THEY ARE OPENING THE DOOR TO SPIRITUAL 35:34 EROSION, IT IS NO SURPRISE THAT IT'S HARD TO FIND THE TRUTH 35:37 TODAY IN THE CHRISTIAN WORLD. THE CHRISTIAN WORLD IS LOSING 35:41 ITS WAY, IT'S BUILDING ITS FOUNDATION ON MUSIC AND 35:45 ENTERTAINMENT AND LIFE AND CAMERA AND ACTION AND THERE'S 35:49 NOTHING WRONG WITH MUSIC AND LIGHT AND CAMERAS AND ACTION, 35:52 AMEN. BUT WHEN IT IS PREFERRED ABOVE 35:56 THE TRUTH OF GOD'S WORD, WHEN THE TRUTH OF GOD'S WORD IS 36:00 PROCLAIMED AND THE VOICE OF THE PERSON RECEIVING IT SAYS I KNOW 36:03 WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS BUT YOU CAN TELL THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A 36:06 GOAT AND A SHEEP, A GOAT ALWAYS SAYS BUT. 36:12 YOU'LL GET THAT ON WEDNESDAY. THERE ARE CERTAIN THINGS THAT 36:15 TAKE TIME TO SINK IN. IT'S STRANGE TODAY TO SAY TO 36:20 SOMEBODY IF YOU LOVE ME, KEEP MY COMMANDMENTS AND THEY SAY THAT'S 36:24 YOUR INTERPRETATION. HIVE PASTORS THAT HAVE ARGUED 36:31 WITH ME ABOUT THE VALIDITY OF GOD'S WORD. 36:33 I HAVE PASTORS TAKING GOD'S WORD AND BENDING IT FOR THEIR 36:36 FINANCIAL PROFITS. FOR THEIR FINANCIAL BENEFITS. 36:40 BUT I RECENTLY BECAME A LITTLE BIT MORE ENCOURAGED WHEN BENNY 36:45 HINN CONFESSED ALL THE YEARS HE HAD BEEN LYING TO PEOPLE AND 36:48 TAKING THEIR MONEY FALSELY. ANYBODY SAW WHAT I'M TALKING 36:51 ABOUT? LOOK IT UP ON YOUTUBE. 36:53 BENNY HINN CONFESSED. HE SAID I'VE BEEN USING GOD'S 36:56 WORD FOR THE WRONG PURPOSES AND THE HOLY SPIRIT HAS CONVICTED ME 37:02 AND REBUKED ME. HE SAID I WILL NO LONGER ASK FOR 37:04 MONEY. AND THEY WILL NO LONGER INVITE 37:09 ME TO THOSE BEGATHONS BECAUSE I REFUSE TO BEG PEOPLE FOR MONEY 37:13 ANY LONGER. HE SAID WE ARE GRIEVING THE HOLY 37:15 SPIRIT OF GOD WHEN WE USE THE GOSPEL FOR PERSONAL PROSPERITY. 37:19 SOMEBODY OUGHT TO SAY AMEN AND OTHER PEOPLE ARE FOLLOWING IN 37:22 THE SAME LINES. I BELIEVE NO MATTER HOW WRONG A 37:24 MAN CAN GO, AS LONG AS HE'S ALIVE, GOD CAN GET HIS 37:27 ATTENTION. CAN YOU SAY AMEN? 37:30 THE CHURCHES TODAY ARE CRUMBLING BECAUSE THE MINISTERS HAVE BEEN 37:33 PREACHING MESSAGES THAT SUPPORT THE EROSION OF TRUTH RATHER THAN 37:37 THE EVICTION OF SIN. WE ARE TEACHING TOLERANCE OF 37:42 SIN. RATHER THAN DELIVERANCE FROM 37:47 SIN. BUT ADAM SAID IN THE GARDEN OF 37:50 EDEN THAT COMPROMISED LEADERS HAVE BEEN FOLLOWING EVER SINCE. 37:54 I TOLD YOU TO PUT ON YOUR SCUBA GEAR. 37:58 NOW IT'S TIME TO GET TO INTO A SUBMARINE, WE'RE GOING DEEPER. 38:02 WHAT ADAM DID IN THE GARDEN OF EDEL -- EDEN HAS BECOME A 38:08 PATTERN AMONG LEADERS THAT GOD CHOSE. 38:10 THINK ABOUT IT. THINK ABOUT IT. 38:16 ADAM CHOSE EVE OVER GOD. HE PREFERRED WHAT SHE OFFERED 38:21 RATHER THAN WHAT GOD SAID. I COULD GO DOWN THE LINE TO 38:26 ABRAHAM. I COULD GO TO DAVID. 38:28 I COULD GO TO SOLOMON. HE HAS SERIOUS ISSUES. 38:33 I COULD GO ON THROUGH ALL THE LEADERS. 38:35 IF YOU LOOKED AT THE BIBLE, IT CAME WHEN WOMEN THAT WERE CHOSEN 38:38 BY THE ENEMY CAME AMONGST MEN CHOSEN BY GOD AND LED THEM DOWN 38:44 THE WRONG PATH BUT LET'S GET DEEP HERE. 38:46 ARE YOU READY FOR IT? AHAB CHOSE A PROSTITUTE, NOT 38:51 BECAUSE OF WHO SHE WAS BUT BECAUSE OF WHO HE WAS. 38:55 SHE CAPTURED HIS ADMIRATION NOT BECAUSE OF HOW SHE WALKED BUT 38:58 BECAUSE OF HOW HE REFUSED TO WALK. 39:01 ARE YOU LISTENING? ISRAEL'S WORSHIP WAS 39:07 SYNCHRONIZED TO THE TEMPO OF A JEZEBEL, A TEMPO SET BY JEZEBEL. 39:12 AHAB'S LIFE BECAME AN ORCHESTRATED MARCH OF EVENTUAL 39:17 COLLAPSE. HE ALIGNED HIMSELF WITH A WOMAN 39:18 THAT DID NOT ALIGN HERSELF WITH GOD. 39:22 WHEN JEZEBEL MINCED AND AHAB'S MIND HE COULD HEAR THE SONG 39:27 "WALK THIS WAY." IT WAS NOT THE SCENT OF AHAB'S 39:33 COLOGNE THAT ATTRACTED JEZEBEL TO HIM BUT THE STENCH OF HIS SIN 39:37 THAT ATTRACTED HIM TO HER. AHAB DESERTED HIS GOD FOR A 39:43 WOMAN THAT WAS DEDICATED TO HER GOD. 39:46 SHE WAS MORE ENTHUSIASTIC ABOUT HER GOD THAN AHAB WAS ABOUT HIS 39:51 GOD. I'M TALKING ABOUT WHAT'S 39:56 HAPPENING IN AMERICA. GOD DID NOT CALL JEZEBEL. 40:00 GOD CALLED AHAB. BUT LET ME REVEAL TO YOU THE 40:05 PRINCIPLE AS TO HOW HE GOT WHERE HE WAS. 40:09 OUR FEET WILL NEVER TAKE US WHERE OUR MINDS HAVE NOT LED US. 40:17 WHEN WE LOSE OUR ENTHUSIASM FOR GOD, WE WILL BECOME ENTHUSIASTIC 40:22 FOR THE WRONG GOD. YOU FOLLOW THAT THROUGH. 40:25 MY WIFE AND I SAT DOWN, WE'RE READING THE BIBLE, WE'RE IN THE 40:28 BOOK OF NEHEMIAH. YOU WANT TO READ A CHAPTER 40:31 THAT'S POWERFUL ABOUT THE REDEMPTIVE LOVE OF GOD, READ 40:35 CHAPTER, I -- CHAPTER 9, IT WILL REVOLUTIONIZE YOUR JOY AND 40:42 APPRECIATION OF THE GOD WHO LOVES US REGARDLESS OF WHO WE 40:45 ARE AND WHAT WE HAVE DONE. GOD HAS THIS -- I CAN'T EVEN 40:53 CALL IT A CHARACTERISTIC BECAUSE IT'S WHO HE IS. 40:57 GOD REFUSES TO ALLOW ANY OF US TO PARISH WHEN ISRAEL TIME AFTER 41:03 TIME FELL INTO REBELLION INTO APOSTASY. 41:12 THEY EVEN SAID TO GOD WE DON'T CARE BUT WHEN THEY GOT INTO 41:16 TROUBLE AND THEY CRIED OUT TO GOD THE BIBLE SAYS IN THE MIDST 41:19 OF THEIR TROUBLE HE CRIED TO GOD AND HE HEARD THEM AND DELIVERED 41:23 THEM. AREN'T YOU GLAD FOR THAT KIND OF 41:26 GOD? WE'VE ALL BEEN THERE. 41:28 BUT WE HAVE TO REMAIN ENTHUSIASTIC ABOUT OUR GOD. 41:31 WE HAVE TO REMAIN ENTHUSIASTIC ABOUT THE MESSAGE GOD HAS GIVEN 41:35 TO US. WE MUST REMAIN ENTHUSIAST IRK 41:38 ABOUT THE FUNDAMENTALS OF OUR FAITH BUT NEVER GET IT MIXED 41:43 UP. IT IS NOT THE FUNDAMENTALS OF 41:45 OUR FAITH ON WHICH OUR SALVATION IS BUILT. 41:47 OUR SALVATION IS BUILT ON THE NONEROSIVE FOUNDATION CALLED 41:52 CHRIST JESUS. BUT NOTHING GETS WHERE IT IS 41:58 IMMEDIATELY. AHAB'S APOSTASY WAS NOT SUDDEN. 42:03 EROSION TAKES TIME. THE AVALANCHE THAT CRIPPLED 42:07 ISRAEL BEGAN AS A TRICKLE AND IT WAS IGNORED. 42:10 THAT'S WHY MY BROTHERS AND SISTERS, WE HAVE TO PAY 42:11 ATTENTION TO THE TRICKLES IN OUR OWN LIVES. 42:14 AM I TELLING THE TRUTH? IT'S EASY TO LOOK AT THE TRICKLE 42:16 IN EVERYBODY ELSE'S LIFE. PEOPLE COME TO CHURCH AND THIS 42:20 IS SO-AND-SO'S TRICKLING AND BROTHER SO-AND-SO IS TRICKLING. 42:24 YOU BETTER LISTEN TO THE TRICKLE IN YOUR OWN LIVES BUT WE COULD 42:28 EASILY EXAMINE OTHER FOLK. IT'S SAD WHEN MEMBERS GET 42:30 TOGETHER TO DIGEST OTHER MEMBERS. 42:33 OR EVEN THE PASTOR FOR THAT MATTER. 42:37 SOMETIMES I'M AT HOME AND I CAN FEEL THE MEMBERS CHEWING AT MY 42:40 BACK. I SAID HONEY, WHAT WAS THAT. 42:43 SHE SAID I DIDN'T DO ANYTHING. I THINK OH, IT MUST HAVE BEEN 42:46 THE MEMBERS. [ Laughter ] 42:50 THAT IS THE WORK OF THE DEVIL. WE'VE GOT TO PUSH FOR UNITY LIKE 42:53 THEY DID ON THE DAY OF PENTECOST. 42:55 WHEN THE PEOPLE OF GOD ARE UNIFIED, GOD CAN WORK THROUGH A 42:58 PEOPLE THAT ARE UNIFIED, NOT ONLY TO AN UNCOMMON GOD BUT TO A 43:03 DIVINE PURPOSE. WHAT YOU DO SAY? 43:05 WHEN WE ARE UNIFIED ONLY THEN CAN WE EXPERIENCE THE OUTPOURING 43:10 OF THE SPIRIT OF GOD ON A PEOPLE THAT ONLY THEN WILL BE ABLE TO 43:14 ACCOMPLISH WHAT WE CANNOT ACCOMPLISH WHILE WE ARE DIVIDED 43:18 AND JUST IN CASE YOU THINK IT'S MY RESPONSIBILITY TO GET YOU TO 43:21 UNIFY WITH SOMEBODY ELSE, THE BIBLE SAYS AS MUCH AS IT IS 43:25 POSSIBLE WITH YOU, BE AT PEACE WITH ALL MEN. 43:29 IT IS A PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY. I CAN'T TELL YOU ANYTHING IF 43:33 YOUR HEART IS NOT RIGHT. BUT WHEN YOU LOOK AT WHAT 43:36 HAPPENED TO ISRAEL, LOOK AT WHAT'S HAPPENING TODAY. 43:37 THAT'S WHY I'M AMAZED; I'M SADDENED WHEN I BEGIN TO SEE OUR 43:43 CHURCHES CHANGING THEIR NAMES FOR POPULAR NAMES IN 43:45 CHRISTIANITY SO LET ME DIVE A LITTLE DEEPER RIGHT NOW. 43:48 WHEN KING SOL WAS IN APOSTASY HE DISGUISED HIMSELF. 43:51 WHEN AHAS BEEN WAS IN APOSTASY, HE DISGUISED HIMSELF. 43:56 CAN I GET CLEAR TODAY? IT IS TOO LATE FOR THEE ADVENTIST 44:03 CHURCH TO DISGUISE. WE AIN'T NO COMMUNITY THIS. 44:07 THIS IS THE SEVENTH DAY ADVENTIST CHURCH. 44:11 THE NAME SEVENTH DAY ADVENTIST IS THE MESSAGE. 44:14 WE STILL HONOR THE SABBATH OF THE CREATION OF GOD. 44:19 WE STILL BELIEVE WHAT JESUS DID IN THE BEGINNING IS STILL 44:22 RELEVANT TODAY. WE STILL BELIEVE WHEN HE SAID 44:25 REMEMBER THAT WE OUGHT TO REMEMBER. 44:27 COME ON, SOMEBODY. IT IS NOT GROWING OLD WITH TIME. 44:29 IT CANNOT BE TALKED AWAY. IT CANNOT BE DILUTED, DELAYED OR 44:35 ERODED AWAY. WHAT IS TRUTH 5,000 YEARS AGO IS 44:38 TRUTH TODAY. THE BIBLE SAYS THE PATIENCE OF 44:43 THE SAINTS, WHEN PEOPLE TELL ME THE COMMANDMENTS OF GOD CANNOT 44:46 BE KEPT I SAY YOU NEED TO DELETE REVELATION BECAUSE THE DEVIL IS 44:51 ANGRY WITH THOSE WHO BY GOD'S GRACE ARE LIVING THEIR LIVES IN 44:55 HARMONY WITH IT. EROSION. 44:57 I MUST SAY MY BROTHERS AND MY SISTERS, IT IS IN THIS CRITICAL 45:00 HOUR GOD IS CALLING HIS PEOPLE TO STAND STRONG. 45:03 IT IS IN THIS CRISIS HOUR IF YOU DON'T THINK THIS HOUR IS CRISIS, 45:07 LOOK AT WHAT ROME IS DOING. LOOK AT OUR POLITICAL QUAGMIRES. 45:11 GOD HAVE MERCY ON US. WHEN WE TALK MORE ABOUT POLITICS 45:17 THAN ABOUT JESUS. DON'T GET ME STARTED. 45:25 I DON'T CARE WHO IS IN THE WHITE HOUSE. 45:28 I'M ONLY CAMPAIGNING FOR JESUS. I'VE NEVER FOUND JOY AND 45:32 PROVISION IN ANY MAN OR WOMAN FOR THAT MATTER. 45:34 I AIN'T PUSHING NOBODY. I AIN'T CAMPAIGNING FOR DIDDLY 45:41 SQUAT. IF THAT'S WHO IS RUNNING MORE 45:46 OFFICE, DIDDLY SQUAT IS NOT GETTING MY VOTE. 45:49 I'M VOTING FOR JESUS. COME ON, SOMEBODY. 45:53 WE OUGHT TO STOP THE FOOLISHNESS OF THINKING THAT GOD HAS CALLED 45:56 A CHURCH FOR POLITICAL REASONS. REMEMBER WHAT HE SAID TO THE 46:01 DISCIPLES. MY KINGDOM IS NOT OF THIS WORLD. 46:04 LET'S REMEMBER WHAT JESUS SAID TO HIS DISCIPLES. 46:09 THE SEASON BELONGS TO HIM AND GOD TO GOD WHAT BELONGS TO HIM. 46:12 HE SAID IF MY KINGDOM WERE OF THIS WORLD MY DISCIPLES WOULD 46:16 FIGHT. WHY DO YOU THINK WE'RE FIGHTING? 46:18 WHY DO YOU THINK ADVENTISTS CAN'T TALK TO ADVENTISTS? 46:22 BECAUSE WE'RE FIGHTING OVER PARTIES RATHER THAN OVER JESUS. 46:26 WE ARE UPLIFTING ONE AGENDA ABOVE THE OTHER WHEN THE ONLY 46:29 AGENDA THAT MATTERS IS THE AGENDA OF THE CROSS. 46:33 YOU DON'T HAVE TO AGREE WITH ME BUT THEN I DON'T REALLY CARE. 46:37 BECAUSE I'M HERE TO TALK ABOUT THE RELEVANT THINGS OF THE HOUR. 46:41 WHEN THAT PRESIDENT IS NO LONGER THERE, WE'LL ARGUE OVER THE NEXT 46:45 ONE AND THE NEXT ONE LIKE WE'VE BEEN DOING SINCE THE LAST 46:52 PRESIDENT GOT ELECTED. IT'S NOT ABOUT PRESIDENTS, IT'S 46:55 ABOUT JESUS. THERE'S ONLY ONE THRONE, AMEN, 46:57 AND NOBODY CAN VOTE HIM OUT. [ Applause ] 47:07 IT IS IN THIS CRITICAL HOUR GOD IS CALLING TO US TAKE A STAND. 47:10 IN THIS CRISIS HOUR GOD IS CALLING US BACK TO UNADULTERATED 47:15 WORSHIP. IT IS IN THIS CLOSING SCENE OF 47:17 HISTORY THAT GOD IS CALLING US BACK TO THE FOUNDATION OF 47:22 FAITHFULNESS. THAT'S WHY I GAVE YOU ONLY TWO 47:25 RECOMMENDATIONS. ONLY TWO LISTS. 47:30 ONLY TWO THINGS I SUGGEST YOU DO. 47:35 DON'T BUILD ON ANYTHING THAT CAN BE ERODED. 47:39 THE WORDS OF JESUS IN LUKE 6:47 AND 48. 47:43 HE SAID THESE WORDS, WHOEVER COMES TO ME AND HEARS MY THINGS 47:49 AND DOES THEM I WILL SHOW YOU WHOM HE IS LIKE. 47:51 HE IS LIKE A MAN BUILDING A HOUSE WHO DUG DEEP. 47:55 HOW DID HE DIG? IT'S TIME TO GET BACK INTO DEEP 47:59 BIBLE STUDIES, NOT IN THE SABBATH CLASS, IN YOUR HOUSE. 48:08 HUSBANDS GET BACK TO BEING THE PRIEST OF YOUR HOME. 48:11 WIVES SUPPORT YOUR HUSBAND IN THAT AREA. 48:12 IF THEY'RE A LITTLE SLOW, SAY DID YOU FORGET SOMETHING TODAY 48:16 LIKE MY WIFE DOES. I WAKE UP SOMETIMES TO GET BUSY 48:20 ABOUT THE BUSINESS OF THE CHURCH AND SHE SAYS HONEY, LET'S NOT 48:23 FORGET ABOUT OUR OWN DEVOTIONS. GOD KNEW WHO I NEEDED TO STAY 48:28 RIGHT. THANK YOU, HONEY. 48:29 HE GOES ON TO SAY HE DUG DEEP AND LAID A FOUNDATION ON THE 48:32 ROCK AND WHEN THE FLOOD AROSE, THE STREAM BEAT VEHEMENTLY 48:38 AGAINST THAT HOUSE AND IT COULD NOT SHAKE IT FOR IT WAS FOUNDED 48:44 ON THE ROCK. SOMETHING ELSE THAT YOU OUGHT TO 48:46 NOTICE. I DON'T HAVE TIME, I NEED TO 48:49 PLANT THE SEED. STUDY THE FOUNDATIONS OF THE NEW 48:55 JERUSALEM. NOT A SINGLE ONE OF THEM CAN BE 48:58 AFFECTED BY EROSION. YOU'LL GET THAT ON THURSDAY. 49:08 NOT A SINGLE ELEMENT IN THE FOUNDATION OF JERUSALEM CAN BE 49:10 AFFECTED BY EROSION. YOU KNOW WHY? 49:14 BECAUSE NO OTHER FOUNDATION CAN ANY MAN LAY THAN THAT WHICH IS 49:19 LAID WHICH IS CHRIST JESUS. COME ON, SAY AMEN. 49:22 WE HAVE TO BUILD OUR HOUSES ON THE ROCK, THE THREE ANGELS 49:26 MESSAGES IS A ROCK MESSAGE. WHAT KIND OF MESSAGE DID I SAY? 49:30 IT'S A ROCK MESSAGE. IT IS NOT FOR THE FAINT OF 49:34 HEART. STOP TIPTOEING THROUGH THE 49:36 TULIPS. STOP MEANDERING IN MEETIOKTY AND 49:43 NEGOTIATING AT THE TABLE OF THE ENEMY. 49:45 TELL IT LIKE IT IS. THE THREE ANGELS MESSAGE IS NOT 49:48 PREPARING US FOR THE FINAL PICNIC OF THE AGES NOR THE FINAL 49:53 EXCURSION OF THE AGES BUT IT'S GETTING US READY FOR THE FINAL 49:56 BATTLE OF THE AGES AND WHEN THAT BATTLE COMES IF YOUR ARMOR IS 49:59 NOT FROM GOD, IF YOUR ARMOR IS NOT FROM CHRIST, YOU WILL FALL 50:03 DOWN. THE MESSAGE IS TO BE PREACHED 50:07 OVER THE BATTLING CONFUSION OF COMPROMISE. 50:10 LET ME MAKE A POINT. DON'T LIFT UP JESUS INSTEAD OF 50:14 THE DOCTRINE. THAT'S FALSE CHRIST 50:20 CENTEREDNESS. PEOPLE SAY JUST PREACH JESUS, 50:22 JUST PREACH JESUS. THAT'S FALSE CHRIST 50:26 CENTEREDNESS. LIFTED LIFT -- LIFT UP JESUS BY 50:30 THE DOCTRINE. INCLUDE JESUS IN ALL YOUR 50:33 MESSAGES. JESUS IS THE FOUNDATION OF OUR 50:34 FAITH BUT IF THAT'S THE ONLY MESSAGE THAT THERE WAS, HE WOULD 50:38 NOT INCLUDE 66 BOOKS. REVELATIONS SHOULD NO LONGER -- 50:45 I GOT TO REPEAT THAT. REVELATIONS SHOULD NOT BECOME A 50:50 MYSTERY AMONG ADVENTISTS. NO OTHER FOUNDATION CAN ANYONE 50:55 LAY THAN THAT WHICH IS LAID WHICH IS CHRIST JESUS. 50:59 THAT'S MY FIRST RECOMMENDATION. MY SECOND RECOMMENDATION IS EVEN 51:02 TOUGHER THAN THAT. THE FIRST ONE IS DON'T BUILD ON 51:07 ANYTHING THAT ERODES BY MY SECOND ONE IS TOUGHER. 51:09 ARE YOU READY FOR IT? EXAMINE THE CRACKS IN YOUR OWN 51:12 LIVES. GET OUT YOUR OWN MIRRORS. 51:15 IF YOU CAN'T SEE, GET SOME WINDEX OR BUY A BIG ONE FROM 51:20 FLOOR TO CEILING AND SAY LORD, SHOW ME ME. 51:24 LET ME TELL YOU SOMETHING. THE MOST SPIRITSUAL TIMES IN MY 51:30 LIF -- THE MOST SPIRITUAL TIMES OF MY LIFE CAME ON THE HEELS OF GOD SHOWING ME WHO I 51:38 AM. AM I TELLING THE TRUTH? 51:40 IF YOU CAN'T SEE WHO YOU ARE, YOU'RE NOT READY FOR THE 51:45 KINGDOM. BECAUSE NOBODY IS GOING INTO THE 51:48 KINGDOM WITHOUT THE GARMENT OF CHRIST'S RIGHTEOUSNESS. 51:51 IF YOU CAN'T SEE YOUR SIN, YOU ARE IN THE WRONG TRIBE. 51:54 THERE ARE SOME FOLK THAT SPEND ALL THEIR LIVES EXAMINING THE 51:57 CRACKS AND OTHER FOLKS' LIVES, CAN'T SEE THE CRACKS IN THEIR 52:01 OWN LIVES YOU AIN'T GOING ANYWHERE. 52:03 BECAUSE IF YOU CAN'T FOCUS ON YOUR OWN SINS, YOU CAN'T SEE THE 52:05 SIN THAT YOU NEED TO BE SAVED FROM. 52:07 THEREFORE, YOU WILL NOT BE SAVED. 52:09 AND SALVATION DOESN'T HAVE A DATE ON IT. 52:11 LE ISVATION IS A PROGRESS PROCESS. 52:14 HE SAVES FROM US THE PENALTY OF SIN. 52:16 THANK THE LORD I'M NOT ON DEATH ROW. 52:18 SALVATION IS A DAILY WALK CALLED SANCTIFICATION. 52:23 ONE DAY WHEN THERE'S NO LONGER TEMPTATION WE WILL BE SAVED FROM 52:26 THE PRESENCE OF SIN. DON'T WALK AROUND TALKING ABOUT 52:30 YOU SAVED. YOU BETTER HUMBLY LIVE UNDER THE 52:32 GRACE OF CHRIST EVERY DAY. EXAMINE YOURSELF THE APOSTLE 52:35 PAUL SAYS. 2 CORINTHIANS 13, EXAMINE 52:41 YOURSELF, 13:5, EXAMINE YOURSELVES TO SEE WHETHER YOU 52:43 ARE IN THE FAITH. TEST YOURSELF. 52:47 DO YOU NOT KNOW YOURSELVES THAT JESUS CHRIST IS IN YOU UNLESS 52:52 INDEED YOU ARE DISQUALIFIED OR THE KING JAMES VERSION SAYS 52:57 REPROBATE? GET BACK TO THE DISTINCTIVE 52:59 TRUTHS. THEY ARE THE FOUNDATION OF OUR 53:02 FAITH, THE PROPHET ISAIAH SAID SPEAKING ABOUT THE PEOPLE OF GOD 53:08 IN THE LAST DAYS, IT DOES NOT APPLY TO JUST THE SABBATH BUT 53:12 EVERYTHING IN OUR LIVES THAT'S BEEN ERODED. 53:14 THE BIBLE SAYS ABOUT THOSE OF US WHO ARE GOD'S CHOSEN PEOPLE THE 53:17 FINAL GENERATION, HE SAYS THEY THAT SHALL BE OF THEY SHALL 53:21 BUILD UP THE OLD WASTE PLACES. COME ON, SOMEBODY. 53:23 IT'S TIME FOR SOME OLD CHRISTIANITY. 53:27 I'M TALKING ABOUT OLD-FASHIONED BUT OLD. 53:30 THAT MEANS THINGS TRUE 5,000 YEARS AGO OUGHT TO STILL BE TRUE 53:34 TODAY. THEY SHALL BUILD UP THE OLD 53:36 WASTE PLACES. THEY SHALL RAISE UP THE 53:39 FOUNDATIONS OF MANY GENERATIONS, THEY SHALL BE CALLED WHAT? 53:44 REPAIRERS OF THE BREACH. WHEN YOU REPAIR THE BREACH, 53:47 EROSION IS STOPPED. RESTORERS OF PATHS TO DWELL IN. 53:52 IT'S TIME THAT WE RESTORE PROPER WORSHIP. 53:59 NOT LOOKING FOR A FEELING. NOT WAITING FOR SOME TWITCH IN 54:04 ORDER TO LIVE RIGHT. NOT WAITING FOR A CERTAIN 54:09 RHYTHMIC PITCH IN ORDER FOR US TO WAKE UP AND SAY WE HAD A GOOD 54:12 TIME IN CHURCH. YOU WANT TO SEE A GOOD TIME, 54:14 IT'S COMING, IT'S CALL THE TIME OF TROUBLE. 54:16 THEN IF YOU CAN MAKE IT THROUGH THAT, YOU WILL HAVE A GOOD TIME. 54:20 IT'S HIGH TIME TO STAND UP FOR THE TRUTHS OR WE'LL FALL FOR 54:24 TRADITION. IT'S HIGH TIME TO STRAIGHTEN UP 54:26 SO THAT SOMEBODY ELSE CAN WALK RIGHT IN THE PATH GOD HAS 54:32 ESTABLISHED FOR OUR OWN FEET. IT'S HIGH TIME TO SPEAK UP FOR 54:37 THE CAUSE OF CHRIST. WHEN IT'S ALL OVER AND DONE, 54:41 ONLY THEN THERE ARE CERTAIN HYMNS I WANT TO STILL SING WHEN 54:44 I GET TO HEAVEN. THE FIRST ONE IS THE CHURCH HAS 54:48 ONE FOUNDATION. 'TIS JESUS CHRIST THE LORD. 54:51 WE MUST SAY WHEN I GET TO HEAVEN ON CHRIST, THE SOLID ROCK, I 54:56 STAND ALL AT THE GROUND, SINKING SAND. 55:00 YOU KNOW WHY, BECAUSE HE'S MY ROROCK OF AGES. 55:04 TODAY I NEED TO STILL HIDE MYSELF FROM THEE. 55:07 WHAT YOU DO SAY? TO MY BRETHREN, DON'T JUST SING 55:10 IT, LIVE IT. DON'T JUST WALK IT, WALK IT. 55:13 DON'T JUST WAIT FOR THE COMING OF THE LORD, WORK FOR THE COMING 55:16 OF THE LORD. DON'T JUST BE A SEVENTH DAY 55:20 úADVENTIST, BE AN ADVENTIST EVERY DAY. 55:22 DON'T SETTLE FOR BEING IN THE CONGREGATION, DON'T STOP UNTIL 55:25 YOU KNOW YOU ARE IN CHRIST. AMEN, BECAUSE ONE DAY WHEN IT'S 55:28 ALL OVER I WANT TO BE STANDING ON THE SEA OF GLASS. 55:31 I HAVE MADE UP MY MIND, HONEY, TOGETHER, FOREVER, ETERNITY IN 55:36 VIEW. THAT AT THE SAME TIME PLEDGE MY 55:37 WIFE AND I HAVE MADE TO EACH OTHER. 55:39 WE WOULD RATHER FIGHT THAN SOMEBODY. 55:43 COME ON SOMEBODY ELSE. AMEN. 55:46 I'M NOT GOING ANYWHERE AND NEITHER IS SHE. 55:48 WE'RE GOING TO GET OLD TOGETHER. AND WHEN WE ARE DONE GETTING 55:54 OLD, WE'LL GET YOUNG ALL OVER TOGETHER IN HEAVEN. 55:57 AMEN, SOMEBODY. I WANT TO BE THERE WHEN THE 56:00 ROADS BLOOM AGAIN AND THE BRIGHT MORNING STAR RISES AGAIN. 56:03 I WANT TO BE IN THE KINGDOM WHEN THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD SIGNS 56:06 AGAIN AND THE OIL OF GLADNESS FLOWS AGAIN WITHOUT RESTRAINT. 56:10 I WANT TO BE ON THE FIRST HALF OF THE MORNING WHEN THE LION OF 56:14 THE TRIBE OF JUDAH ROAR AGAIN AND THE OATH OF SALVATION 56:18 BECOMES THE FINISH OF MIFF FAITH. 56:20 I DETERMINE TO BE THERE ON THE GREAT AND GLORIOUS DAY WHEN THE 56:22 MIGHTY GOD BECOMES THE EVERLASTING FATHER. 56:25 WHEN THE FIRST ADAM HUGS THE SECOND ADAM, I WANT TO HEAR THE 56:30 THUNDEROUS FEET OF REDEMPTION JOINING TOGETHER IN THE MASSIVE 56:32 HUG OF REDEMPTION. I WANT TO BE THERE WHEN THE 56:34 ALPHA BECOMES THE OMEGA AND I WILL FINALLY SEE HIS FACE. 56:40 BUT MY BROTHERS AND SISTERS, DO NOT FORGET WE ARE LIVING IN THE 56:43 HOUR OF EROSION. WE LIVE IN A DOWNSTREAM WORLD. 56:48 THE CRACKS ARE CLAIMING US. NEVER FORGET, IF THE FOUNDATION 56:55 BE DESTROYED, WHAT CAN THE RIGHTEOUS DO? 57:01 IS THERE SOMEBODY HERE TODAY THAT WANTS TO SAY BY GOD'S GRACE 57:03 I'M GOING TO HOLD ON UNTIL IT'S ALL OVER. 57:08 I'M GOING TO RIDE THE WAVES UNTIL THE SHIP LANDS IN THE NEW 57:13 JERUSALEM. I'M GOING TO BUCKLE MY SEAT BELT 57:15 IN THE TURBULENCE OF THE CHURCH AND I'M NOT GETTING OFF BECAUSE 57:19 YOU DON'T LIKE THE RIDE. I'M STAYING WITH IT UNTIL THE 57:21 DAY IS DONE AND WHEN EROSION IS ALL OVER, WE WILL SEE THE 57:28 UNMOVEABLE, UNDILUTABLE FOUNDATION AND HIS NAME IS 57:29 CHRIST. GOD BLESS YOU. 57:30 [ ♪ ] [ ♪ Piano Playing ♪ ] |
