00:04 Would you be tempted to stare down
00:06 the barrel of a loaded 12 gauge shot gun, 00:08 set to go off some time in the next 100 years? 00:12 In 1982, people lined up 00:14 for what have been called an art exhibit 00:16 to do just that. 00:25 It's time to join your guide, Jim Ayer, 00:28 for an exciting 12 episode journey 00:30 into "Remodeling Your Life." 00:33 You're going to discover that 00:34 God's transforming power is real 00:37 and is ready to provide that power to you. 00:40 Now here is your guide Jim Ayer 00:42 to take you on the journey of a lifetime 00:45 in amazing and dynamic experience with God. 00:51 Staring down the barrel of a loaded gun 00:53 is not my idea of fun 00:55 but it seems that many people disagree with me. 00:58 Why are people tempted to gamble with their lives. 01:01 The human race is drawn to temptation 01:03 like a moth is to flame. 01:05 The actual gun in the art exhibit was loaded 01:08 and set to fire a fatal blast sometime within 100 years 01:12 when the clock was set. 01:14 I'll bet you that not a single person 01:15 sitting in front of that deadly barrel 01:17 thought the gun with fire, while they were in a chair. 01:21 But who can rest assure that when you're toy would danger 01:24 that devil will always pull the trigger. 01:27 When we mess around the temptation, 01:29 we will get hurt. 01:30 But the good news is you and I don't need to get hurt 01:33 by temptation any longer. 01:42 Ideal country saying goes 01:43 I was knee-high to a grasshopper when I start fishing. 01:47 We're going up fishing serve two purposes actually 01:49 we put, food on the table 01:51 and was just loads of fun the fish would dead. 01:54 Well, I have the opportunity to fish from 01:56 Central America to Alaska 01:58 which brings up other country saying, 02:00 "the worst day of fishing is better than 02:02 the best day of working." 02:05 Fishing is one of the oldest professions 02:07 in past times of the human race. 02:09 The paralegal fishing can be as easy as 02:12 having a stick some line 02:13 and hook with the worm at the end of it. 02:15 Well, in some countries they don't even use the stick. 02:19 If it's a commercial venture, 02:21 it could cost millions to stock of boats 02:23 and prepare for a day in the ocean. 02:26 One key ingredient is the bait. 02:28 I've used flies, layers, eggs, 02:31 well, different kinds of bait and the list actually goes on. 02:34 You see, fishing is a real art and if you fly fishing, 02:38 you catch what bugs were out and you select to fly 02:41 that looks just like the bug 02:43 that are near the water on that day. 02:45 Then after studying the stream, 02:47 you determine the location where the fish will be 02:49 and your place where fly in that perfect spot 02:52 to just guide it right past of nose that unsuspecting fish. 02:57 No matter what type of bait or setup the fish it may use 03:00 they're all designed to do one thing, 03:03 tempt the fish to bite on a concealed hook. 03:08 This exactly what the devil is doing 03:10 when he dangles temptation in front of you. 03:12 He is trying to lure you, to a trap to just seduce you 03:16 to bite on a hidden hook and make no mistake. 03:20 They're always hidden hooks 03:22 ready to slice deep into your flesh. 03:25 But just like the fish in the stream, 03:27 you don't need to bite regardless of 03:29 how tempting the meal is flowing past you maybe. 03:34 Because of the devil's alarming success rate at fishing for sin, 03:38 we've been doped into the belief 03:39 that simply seen or wiggling worm must be sin. 03:43 In other words, 03:44 many Christians believe the temptation itself is sin. 03:48 Do you think that's true? 03:50 Well, even if you don't believe it, 03:52 I would venture to say 03:53 that you probably act like you do anyway. 03:57 I'm convinced that if the devil can 03:59 keep only one truth from you, this would be it. 04:02 Temptation is not sin 04:05 and God has the power to keep you 04:06 from surrendering to it from biting on it. 04:09 It is a complete lie 04:11 that you must accept His biblical fact 04:13 that falling for every temptation is unavoidable. 04:16 You and I have been held captive 04:18 to this lie far too long. 04:21 Hebrews 4:15 says, "When Jesus lived on earth, 04:26 He was very tempted in every way. 04:28 He was tempted in the same ways 04:30 we are tempted but never sinned." 04:33 Our Lord came to show us how to walk the rock 04:36 and provide all the power to do so. 04:40 There is no pressure to sin 04:41 that is greater than the power of almighty God 04:44 to deliver you from it. 04:45 Just to make it very clear one last time, 04:47 fishing is called fishing and not catching 04:50 because it depends on whether 04:51 the fish decide to bite the bait. 04:53 As a fisherman, I don't stand in the water grabbing fish 04:56 and manually hooking them up. 04:59 It is the same with the devil and you. 05:01 He can dangle all the tempting bait 05:03 he wants in front of you but you don't need to bite. 05:07 According to Ellen White, 05:09 "Through belief in Satan's misrepresentations of God, 05:12 man's character and destiny were changed, 05:15 but if men will believe in the word of God, 05:18 they will be transformed in mind and character, 05:21 and fitted for eternal life." 05:29 God's word said the Lord knows 05:30 how to deliver the godly out of temptation. 05:34 By way of example I want to address 05:36 a temptation that is so sensitive 05:37 that most people don't even want to discuss it. 05:41 Biting on this temptation 05:42 is destroyed multitudes of marriages 05:44 and has wrecked entire families. 05:46 It is infiltrated every level of our society 05:48 including the church because of devil make sure 05:51 that it rarely stops with just a look. 05:54 In some cases, it is led to the most terrible of crimes. 05:58 What is the temptation? 05:59 It's pornography. 06:01 The devil dangled sex in front of us at every opportunity. 06:05 At the super market checkout counter 06:07 portrayed by scantily cloud woman on magazine covers. 06:11 On Television, on our computers, 06:13 even in public today, sometimes even in the church 06:16 exhibit in the way men and women dress. 06:19 The devil is dangling his bait at every corner. 06:23 I want you to meet Larry. 06:25 Larry is not his real name and he has requested that 06:28 we do not show his face nor reveal his true voice 06:31 due to the sensitive nature of his past addiction. 06:36 Hi, Jim, as to what the affects with pornography 06:40 was in my life and my family or others around me. 06:46 I guess the biggest thing 06:47 it was talk about younger age first was it 06:51 I drafted my younger siblings into it. 06:58 I really haven't talk much about it I tried to-- 07:01 I was just pointing your life I guess we need younger 15, 16 07:06 we get you separate ways 07:07 and try to pretend those things didn't happen at younger life. 07:12 I've only approached one of our siblings to it, 07:15 to really discuss it 07:16 and basically asked for forgiveness, 07:19 since I led him into this. 07:22 The other one doesn't want talk about it as to them 07:26 and don't want to in discuss with 07:27 so like that we left doing that. 07:29 But at least in the teens early 20 years and those years 07:35 it definitely made a rift in our family 07:37 and at least as far as my siblings are concerned. 07:40 I realized more and more how much 07:44 this was affecting my relationship with God. 07:47 Not that I didn't realize that before 07:49 but the cycle had interested 07:52 imposed with my life and enough is enough. 07:55 And I was at a low point probably about a year, 07:58 year and half within a year whatever. 08:00 And Lord has a way of reaching people in their low points. 08:04 In fact, I-- I will say sincere believer that 08:07 He pushes us side of sometimes allow things to happen 08:11 that what we focus in our lives. 08:13 And about that time, 08:15 I received a manuscript from a good friend, 08:18 that manuscript turned out to be the 08:23 what was now or what was now knows as 08:25 the book of transformation. 08:27 And it did transform 08:28 and I'm a big push of behind Jim 08:31 trying to get this thing out. 08:33 It changed my life. 08:34 It-- it brought me into a much deeper relationship 08:39 with God and Bible. 08:41 My daily worship schedule was 08:44 if he to say at least my prayer time was there 08:49 but my prayers never went further than 08:51 the introduction of chapter or book 08:53 where he talks about payers now going through the ceiling. 08:55 That's all I felt. 08:57 They never made it through the ceiling. 08:59 I was sure God love me I've never had any claims 09:02 all my life in that area. 09:03 It was just my relationship with God was their fault 09:07 and I didn't know how to get it back on track. 09:10 I think Benjamin Franklin 09:12 put his finger on the problem with temptation 09:13 when he said, 09:14 what makes resisting temptation difficult for many people, 09:18 is it they don't want to discourage you completely. 09:22 Could that be what happens with you and me? 09:24 Many times we will make the conscious choice 09:26 to open the door of temptation, just a tiny bit. 09:29 We're scared to close the door completely 09:32 even though leaving the door open 09:33 will result in our destruction. 09:37 Satan's soul focus is to destroy 09:39 every hint of Christ in you 09:41 which is why he's in the business of tempting you. 09:44 But when you're faced to what seems like an 09:46 overwhelming errs to sin, you have an out. 09:49 "God dwelling in you, therefore submit yourselves to God 09:53 resist the devil," the Bible says 09:54 and he will flee from you. 09:56 You see God can do anything He wants to do 10:00 because after all He's God, and when He's living in you 10:03 while He wants to keep you from sinning. 10:06 Remember the angel told Mary to call his name Jesus 10:09 for He shall save his people from their sins. 10:13 Here's the key, your prayers and mine 10:15 will be far more effective in the battle with evil 10:18 if we start by surrendering all to God, not just 99% but all. 10:24 We need to completely close the door to temptation 10:27 and lock it, the devil does not own bold cutters. 10:31 And contrary to what Satan was like us to believe 10:34 temptation is not sin, don't miss this. 10:38 The first look is not sin, but we must turn away 10:41 from the second look. 10:43 This is critical, at the moment of recognition, 10:46 call out to God and He will give you the power 10:48 to turn away to keep you from sinning. 10:52 This is not just wishful thanking, its Bible truth. 10:56 Just as falling out of the tree resulting gravity 10:59 pulling you down to the ground. 11:01 Well, then resisting the devil 11:03 will resulted him bolting from the scene 11:05 when we appeal to our best friend Jesus Christ in prayer. 11:09 At that moment it becomes God's battle. 11:12 And, well, when you appear to, to be overwhelmed. 11:17 You're fighting against all odds, 11:19 those things will soon evaporate 11:21 and leave an empty battlefield 11:23 when you call upon Jesus Christ. 11:33 Ever wonder why your life doesn't reflect 11:36 the powerful change that supposed to be 11:38 part of every Christian experience. 11:40 The temptations way on you and leave you saying, 11:43 maybe I'm not trying hard enough for wondering 11:45 if God's holding up His end of the deal. 11:48 Could there be some secret everyone but you knows. 11:51 Well, there is a well kept secret 11:53 and few Christians know about it 11:55 or talk about it until now. 11:57 Transformation maybe the most exciting 12:00 and life changing book you'll ever read. 12:03 It's not only up beaten easy to read 12:05 but powerful in its message, the message of transformation. 12:10 Jim Ayer exposes plans that have successfully 12:12 kept the truth from Christians for decades. 12:15 Truth that will allow you 12:16 to become the happiest Christian imaginable. 12:19 Don't miss out, order Transformation today. 12:22 Now here's the information you need. 12:23 Call us or visit us online. 12:33 This is perhaps one of the greatest books 12:35 ever written on the Biblical teachings of Christ. 12:38 Jesus used parables to open the vistas of heaven 12:41 to the people and to expand their thinking 12:43 as no other book has ever done. 12:45 Ellen White unwraps the parables 12:47 allowing us to see Christ our salvation 12:50 revealing all of His beauty and splendor 12:52 throughout each and every page. 12:54 Order your copy today, 12:56 now here's the information you need. 12:57 Call us or visit us online. 13:05 Even better than resisting temptation 13:07 once you're confirmed with it, 13:09 is to do all you can to avoid it. 13:11 And if you're once a smoker and alcoholic 13:13 you certainly will not choose 13:14 to hangout at the bars or the liquor store. 13:18 And if you're a drug dealer like I was 13:19 you wouldn't hangout around the pot shops 13:21 that sell the stuff. 13:23 Temptations were always there. 13:27 In fact, I share with Jim that 13:29 it's been about a year and I felt a few weeks back 13:33 it was, it was not a joyous experience. 13:37 When the Lord's up on that we feel again, 13:39 but I can honestly say that I haven't since my teen years 13:42 I have not gone a year without indulging 13:47 in these addictions. 13:50 Well, I be tempted, probably rest of my life. 13:54 Satan knows everybody's weaknesses 13:56 and he learned this weakness on-- long time ago. 13:58 He will probably continue to tell me. 14:00 I know now that and I did know 14:02 before I just didn't want to accept 14:04 I went to acknowledge it. 14:06 I know that with God's help I can beat this addiction. 14:12 When I feel an urged with-- 14:14 hey, I need something to fill an addiction 14:18 I turn the other way. 14:20 I used to stay stare at ladies, 14:27 did I found attractive. 14:29 I don't do that anymore, so I'd like that my own wife 14:31 I don't know another wife where to look at. 14:33 Where are you looking for anyway? 14:35 I know there's a higher power of responsible 14:37 to this higher power baby creatively 14:41 and gave me a will to make choices to accept Him 14:44 and to be a friend of His. 14:46 First thing I would say is acknowledge 14:49 that you have an addiction. 14:53 That's far first thing than any step to recovery 14:56 is to acknowledge there is a problem. 14:58 The second is to seek obviously God's help. 15:02 Confess your sin to the Lord, 15:03 let Him know that you're sorry 15:05 and you want to make a change. 15:07 And I think He's for people here 15:09 on earth to help us on these things, 15:12 seek out of friends somebody you can be accountable 15:15 for and make that friend accountable 15:16 ask you questions to check in on you. 15:21 And it's got to be somebody of your trust 15:23 and we will hold your confidentiality. 15:26 But to make yourself accountable, 15:28 to a spouse to your friend 15:31 there is nothing like that for feel pressure 15:34 if you want to use the word 15:36 it somebody tangible right here 15:38 not those every God is intangible. 15:40 But God has a small voice. 15:41 So friend can be pretty pesky right in front of you 15:44 and it's hard to tell him to their face 15:46 that you done something to leave 15:48 they've been encouraging you for a while not to do. 15:50 I'm a firm believer 15:52 that you can't just throw something out. 15:56 The Bible is pretty clear 15:58 that when we speak a room and clean in our mind, 16:00 and if we don't focus something else, 16:02 the devil is gonna move right in. 16:04 And I've been down that room many times 16:05 before I don't know how many times 16:08 I had given up this addiction. 16:11 And that would last about two weeks at the most 16:17 and we're back to and it's worse than the time before. 16:22 It's-- the sorry state of sin. 16:26 You know, if you think you got to cleaned up 16:28 and the next time around is worse 16:29 and worse and worse. 16:31 Now this time we got to felt with something. 16:34 The Book of James says, "Therefore submit to God, 16:37 resist the devil he will flee from you." 16:40 Moses had all the richest of Egypt at his disposal. 16:43 He was inline to become pharaoh 16:45 but he decided to turn away from all of it 16:47 because he realized that it would cost him 16:50 his eternal position of royalty in the courts above. 16:53 The same royal court 16:54 you and I are destined to live in 16:56 and reign for eternity. 17:04 You know, we tend to exercise 17:05 our physical bodies so we can build muscle. 17:08 We tend go to the gym jump, 17:09 the track all these places to exercise those muscles. 17:13 But what do we do about our spiritual muscles?

Lewis, once wrote and quote 19:43 "Indeed the safest road to Hell is the gradual one, 19:46 the gentle slope, soft underfoot, 19:48 without sudden turnings, 19:50 without milestones, without signposts." 19:54 We must understand and when speaking of temptation 19:57 a Christian cannot use the excuse that, 19:59 that devil made me do it. 20:02 God has given every human free choice. 20:04 That's why we're here 20:05 in this messed up world in the first place 20:08 because our first parents Adam and Eve 20:10 bit on to the devil temptation. 20:12 That's why Jesus came to provide an alternative 20:14 to continually falling for every temptation 20:17 that comes our way. 20:19 As soon as He was baptized 20:20 the Holy Spirit led Him to the desert 20:22 to do battle with same and show us the way. 20:25 But don't miss this, the first item of preparation 20:28 for battle was to spend 40 days in prayer. 20:37 Perhaps it was the touch of a supernatural being 20:39 that brought Him out of His 20:40 40 days of communion with the Father. 20:43 When He looked up there it was this dazzling being 20:45 who said "I come to warn you about one. 20:47 Well, a matter of fact, you look like the one. 20:51 If you're really who you say 20:52 you're the savior of the world-- here 20:54 take this stone and turn it to bread." 20:58 Well, for Jesus it was a temptation, 20:59 He was the God of the universe incarnated in human form. 21:03 He looked at that one and He said no, no, no 21:05 "Man shall not live by bread alone 21:06 but by every word that proceeds 21:08 from the mouth of God." 21:11 Now temptation number two, 21:13 the devil takes Him up to a high temple, 21:15 he says if you're really the Son of God cast yourself down. 21:18 And Jesus quotes scripture, 21:21 now the devil pulls His mask away 21:23 takes Him up to the highest mountain top, 21:25 shows Him all of the glories of planet earth he says 21:27 I got it from Adam it's mine, I claim it as mine. 21:30 But if you bow down and worship me as your lord 21:33 I'll give it all to you all the riches of planet earth. 21:37 And Jesus says Satan get behind me now, it's full blown. 21:40 He says no, no, no. 21:41 I want none of your temptations. 21:44 My friends, temptation does not have 21:47 to be something that we abide on. 21:50 Jesus provided the way to get his past temptation. 21:53 We know longer have to succumb to temptation. 21:58 So let's bring these temptations of Jesus down to our day. 22:01 The first was lust of the flesh. 22:03 That's food and drugs and alcohol fit in this category 22:06 along with many other consumable items. 22:10 It's evident in our world that 22:11 this is a major area of temptation. 22:14 It was part of the temptation of thief. 22:16 Abuse of the natural appetite was also the first temptation 22:19 that the devil tried to hook Jesus with when he said, 22:22 turn these stones to bread. 22:25 The lust of the eyes is actually number two after Eve fell, 22:28 she ran to Adam as the devil's temptress. 22:31 Adam saw what she had done and knew 22:34 that the penalty for her disobedience was death. 22:37 He looked upon her beauty 22:38 and he desired the woman more than he desired God. 22:41 So he took out the fruit and he ate it. 22:45 In the final when is the pride of life. 22:48 So many things fit into this category 22:49 but they'll focus on the power the fame and the wealth. 22:54 None of these things are sins ended themselves 22:56 but power, fame and wealth are easily abused by those 23:00 who are humbled before God 23:02 and they can become idols to those 23:04 who seek after them before they seek after God. 23:08 Satan tempted evil with his power 23:10 and she desired to have it, 23:12 her pride of life went out over her love for God. 23:17 Jesus gained the victory just as we must gain. 23:21 He laid aside every bit of Himself and instead relied 23:24 upon the Father's power to overcome. 23:27 He defeated the devil on every level of temptation 23:30 and He did it for you and for me in the same way 23:33 that we must do it by relying upon the power 23:36 of the indwelling Holy Spirit 23:38 that third person of the Godhead. 23:41 In order for us to be victorious Christians 23:43 avoiding falling for temptation, 23:45 we must choose to tapping into that mighty power 23:48 that Jesus offers you and me today. 23:53 You know Jesus had asked the disciples 23:55 to get in the boat and go to the other side 23:57 that someway somehow He would meet them there. 24:00 Well, as they're rowing in the middle of night 24:02 the waves are getting bigger 24:03 and bigger and they're quite huge 24:05 and the disciples are getting little nervous about this 24:07 and all of a sudden they see this foam, 24:09 walking across the water. 24:11 And they think who is this, is this is the bad omen, 24:13 is this an omen that we're going to die. 24:16 And then all of a sudden they finally see that, 24:18 that maybe it's Jesus 24:19 and Peter said Lord, is that you? 24:21 Tell me to get out the boat. 24:23 Oh, tell me to get out the boat 24:25 and the Lord said sure come on Peter, 24:27 come on get out the boat. 24:28 So Peter steps out, 24:29 he and gets one of the top of the water 24:31 while he is walking just like it cement. 24:33 He walks across towards Jesus 24:34 but then he does an interesting thing 24:36 he turns back to look at the rest of the disciples 24:38 kind of like hey, check me out, look what I'm doing. 24:42 And about that time, the bigger wave comes up 24:44 between Jesus and Peter and Peter turns back 24:47 and looks he can't see Christ and he sinks like a rock. 24:50 Man and he is gone his eyes were off of Jesus 24:53 don't miss this part. 24:54 His eyes were off of Jesus began sinking like a rock 24:56 and immediately Peter cries out 24:58 Lord, save me, and Jesus says right there. 25:01 Picks him up by the hand 25:02 and the next thing they're in the boat 25:04 and they're all their way to shore. 25:07 It's amazing the power of God. 25:09 You know I made-- I'd always giving 25:11 Peter a bad time about his failures 25:13 until one day I thought, forget the storm, 25:16 but I've even gotten on the boat even in calm conditions. 25:20 Well it's truly Peter received a mildly rebuke from the Lord 25:23 but it wasn't because he didn't trust Jesus 25:25 when he got out of the boat. 25:27 When he got out of the boat 25:28 he had faith that Jesus could take him a distance, 25:31 he was only on the way 25:32 that Peter began to having a troubles. 25:34 You know the Lord says, interesting thing 25:36 and the Lord says, go and sin no more. 25:39 Are you really going to get out of the boat of sin 25:42 because you know you believe Jesus, 25:45 you believe in Him or you gonna stay in the boat 25:47 with the rest the crowd 25:48 and never test His mighty power to save you from sin. 25:53 I think it's interesting that the Bible doesn't tell us, 25:56 how Peter got back in the boat. 25:58 Already I think you know 26:00 did he walk back what really happen. 26:03 I like the think that the Lord when He picked him up 26:06 they walked arm and arm all away back to the boat 26:08 with the power and strength of Jesus, 26:11 he became a waterlog. 26:13 You know we think about this central 26:16 wonder about these things 26:17 and we try and deal with these stones 26:19 in our lives for things that are happening. 26:21 But with God along side of his, 26:23 we become water walkers were 26:25 we can learn how to become water walkers with Christ. 26:28 You know this is where, 26:29 this is where I shrink from temptation 26:32 originally-- remember it's firm temptation. 26:34 That's what all originates is in Him. 26:36 What He wants to do in and through you to, 26:38 to make you an over-comer. 26:41 Its mind boggling but in order to walk on the water 26:44 you need to choose to get out to the boat. 26:46 It's basically that simple. 26:47 As you go arm and arm with Jesus, 26:49 you can walk anywhere God wants you to walk. 26:53 When He told the pretty lady 26:54 and the prostitute to sin no more He was saying, 26:56 hey don't loose sight of me, 26:58 don't let go in my arm and I will lead you to victor. 27:02 That's what He was telling. 27:04 Remember as you cooperate with the will of God, 27:07 it becomes omnipotent. 27:11 If you want to walk on water, 27:12 you need to trust Jesus 27:13 and actually get out of the boat. 27:18 He will be trusted as the creator God of universe 27:20 He is able to keep you above the waves 27:21 you use your life or you don't. 27:23 If you don't trust Him, you will loose out 27:25 on an unbelievable experience walking on water. 27:29 The reality of the situation is that there is no need to sink 27:32 beneath the ways of temptation 27:33 that bid against every moment and every day. 27:37 Call out to God right now, 27:39 ask Him to turn you from the temptations 27:41 that are plugging you at this very moment. 27:43 Pledge for a His strength, look into His loving eyes 27:46 and He will take you by the hand, 27:47 lift you up in arm and arm with God, 27:50 you will become a water walker. |
