2018 Orlando Victory Campaign: The Fundamentals of Faith (7:00 p.m.)

we'll be talking about the fundamentals of faith before before I even begin tonight the question comes up so many times what is faith well you know we know from the book of Hebrews that now faith is the substance of things hoped for the evidence of things are not seen let me give you a working definition of faith faith is a spiritual force generated in the reborn human spirit released through the mouth with words faith filled words dominate the laws of sin and death let me give it to you again faith is a spiritual force generated in the reborn human spirit released through the mouth with words faith filled words dominate the laws of sin and death Jesus said in mark 11:22 Jesus answering saith unto them have faith in God the cross-reference says have the faith of God that is very very accurate because we're born again not of corruptible seed but incorruptible by the Word of God which liveth and abideth for ever faith cometh by hearing and hearing by the Word of God that our faith when we got born again we got born again by faith the faith God's faith is in the seed of his word I'm already happy glory to God so the moment you got born again and that moment you receive Jesus as your Lord and Savior I mean you got saved with that faith it didn't go anywhere and people say for brother Copeland I just don't have faith well get saved you have faith have faith in God for verily I say unto you that whosoever so this will work for anybody right whosoever shall say unto this mountain be thou removed be thou cast into the sea and shall not doubt in his heart shall not doubt in the inner man but shall believe that those things those words which he saith shall come to pass he shall have what so ever he said therefore I say unto you what things soever you desire when you pray believe that you receive them and you shall have them and when you stand praying forgive if you have aught against any that your father also which is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses now then fundamental fundamentals fundamental of faith fundamental number one I heard my grandson say this and it just oh man Jeremy and I've learned learned a lot from you you can learn a lot from somebody that that you know surrendered to preach when he's three and never has done anything else he was bridging that there at the church in my seat Oh some months ago and he he said I when I was he said when I was little he said I thought we lived in the household of faith he says all we ever heard oh my love it's all I ever heard and he said you notice that that children raised in in faith that they have a different vocabulary than other children and Annie said one of Justice my oldest grandson he said when justice was had a little friend and he and his and his family were on him on a road trip and they had a potty emergency so they pulled over into a rest area and they walked in there and and his little boy said daddy it smells like the curse of the law in here [Applause] [Laughter] what here's what I heard from Jeremy what are you watching when you watch the World Series what are you watching when you watch the Super Bowl what are you watching when you're watching women's of World Cup US Open Masters of the fundamentals it's not some secret play the game is the game what are you watching when you're watching the Little League World Series masters of the fundamentals at that age how do you get that way how does an Olympic champion become an Olympic champion but staying with it never quitting don't ever quit I said don't ever quit don't ever turn illusio faith don't ever change your confession I mean you put the Word of God in your heart in your mouth and don't ever say anything else I don't care what the pain is do it I've been there I've been there I know what it's like I'm telling you glory to God don't quit don't just get your good I've done I'm not moving what I see or not move about what I feel I've moved only about what I believe and I have a amen hey hallelu thank you Jesus glory be to God so fundamental number one believe it in your heart then say it with your mouth let's we read mark 11:23 let's go to 2nd Corinthians 4:13 oh I love it 2nd Corinthians chapter 4 and the 13th verse we having the same spirit of faith according as it is written I believed and therefore have I spoken we also believe and therefore speak now let's go to Romans 10:10 now in the tenth chapter of Romans in the 8th verse what saith if the word is nigh thee even in thy mouth and in her heart that is the Word of Faith which we preach that's where that phrase comes from this word this Bible this book is the word of faith the what faith is not a movement glory to God it's not some kind of you know that no no no no no no no now Romans 10:10 for with the heart man believeth unto righteousness and with the mouth confession is made on to salvation Luke chapter 6 and we'll begin reading with the 43rd verse Luke 643 for a good tree bringeth not forth corrupt fruit neither doth a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit every tree is known by his own fruit for of thorns been to not gather figs nor of bramble bush do they gather grapes a good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth that which is good an evil man now stop there just a moment he's not talking about a good man and a murderer the word evil in the King James translation at least it kind of leaves that but you remember also in the book of Hebrews it calls unbelieving heart an evil heart a wicked heart because so you see what Jesus is talking about he could be talking about two Christians this is what he's referring to so they're not bad people but one's putting one thing in his heart another than putting in something else so I look at it that way and look at it again a good man out of the good deposit of his heart bringeth forth that which is good and an evil or an unbelieving man out of the evil deposit of his heart bringeth forth that which is evil so whatever you put in there is what you're going to get amen what-whatever you listening to wherever your eyes are going you know the computer world junk in junk out you can't change that that is a spiritual law you cannot keep sewing and saying the same thing and someday expect to get different results now look at this very carefully now and take it to heart take this to heart a good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth that which is good an evil man of the evil treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is evil for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaks there it is go through your New Testament look at the times that Jesus used his words as a tool I say unto you arise I say unto you remember he said that to J Iris's don't I say unto you arise used his word take up your bed and walk words faith filled words words never were and still are not primarily for communication words primarily or power release yeah Oh glory to God thank you Jesus we live goat 11 chapter the book of Hebrews we live in a word created faith created universe now faith is the substance of things hoped for the evidence of things the evidence of things not seen evidence of things you can't see say can't see faces and faith is an invisible force it cannot be felt with the flesh now you can feel the results of it sometimes but it's a spiritual force you can't feel spiritual forces it's like the wind you can't see the wind but you can feel the effective you still can't see it well faith spiritual things are like that by it the elders obtained a good report through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the Word of God so that things may material things God created all matter there was a time there was nothing material all matter was created by faith filled words a men who go in a cop think about it now so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear this all matter was not created out of nothing it was created out of something you can't see your field it was created by faith no reason now let's go back to mark 11:23 have faith in God for barely I say unto you whosoever shall say whosoever shall say whosoever shall say now see we are created spirit beings Adam was exactly like God exactly like he was exactly like God the way Jesus is exactly like God is a man exactly like him we are spirit being you are a spirit you have a soul which is the intellectual part of you and you live in a physical body right I remember the first time I ever heard that I thought whoa boy that opened a book up to me I thought what a certainly go pretty god amen I am a spirit and in my spirit there is a soul and my spirit my soul live in my body now let me give you something else here because I I don't I don't want to miss this I don't want you to miss this you've heard the phrase someone's losing his mind you can't lose your mind it's your brain that's sick dementia Alzheimer's any form of dementia you're not losing your mind if you know someone that's suffering for this Hey don't you dare get into shame and said something you're gonna think I'm losing my mind you're not losing your mind is something wrong with your brain your brain is a physical thing it's just a physical organ start your confession going praise god I've not been given a spirit of fear but of power and love and a sound mind and it takes a sound brain to have a sound I can prove it to you from the Gospel of Luke when Jesus said about the rich man and Lazarus the Angels carried Lazarus to Abraham's bosom the rich man went into hell he looked up and saw father Abraham Abraham said son remember his brain is upstairs with his body his memory is in his spirit [Music] hahaha mr. devil boy we did we just tore him up didn't we shame it's a killer Jesus boy you're saying don't be being afraid when somebody's going to think about you or what somebody's going to find out about you Jesus already knows everything about you and that's all that counts just get rid of the shame praise God you've never been so free in your life you come to that place where I don't care what they think I don't care what they say I fouled up messed up bummed up tore it up tore it down who cares I don't get all upset cause your hair don't look right I'm out Cheers have a wonderful Sunday morning to praising God out on the deck and a beautiful Sunday morning and just praising the Lord and foul it all up because he heard me haha take you undone Oh Lord my dad and the the first job he hid the job that he got when I was six weeks old so I'd say it's pretty well on my lot and it was it was working for a drones business college back in those days and he was he was traveling registrar for them and during the war and after the war and the way thing went the the school would send out cards to seniors in high school and then the ones that came back my dad would take those cards and he would go to the principal of the high school and present his credentials and so forth so that people know who was and then he would go see the the student and the family at night what do you know back in those days you you either put all on your hair well my dad didn't like oily hair so he he put this stuff on there called by hours and buddy you can still get fight Ellison yeah I don't know but I'm perspective stinks as much as it did and you know you just do this and you do your hair up like that you comb it pretty good and so he Lord he went back to that to his hotel room and and and you know to go out later he had appointments at night and he got he know he fixed his hair and everything and he [Laughter] he look like a 1943 rock star thank you lord shame is a killer Jesus more you shames all of them shames you bore them off may I remind you of the little woman at the well hold stringer husbands let me remind you of one better than that Rahab the harlot remember her did you ever notice how explicit the word is all the way through the scripture even in the 11th chapter of the book of Hebrews I mean a hall-of-fame if they make sure you understand she's Rahab the harlot now the Bible can call her that you can't I can't because he's Jesus great-great-great-grandmother come on come on Jesus can handle the harlot it's religion he can't handle it [Applause] hallelujah praise God thank you Lord Jesus I learned a lot of that from my daughter Kelly praise God my kids are smarter than me and they ought to be they should be well certainly hallelujah now where will thank you Lord Jesus go back to mark 11:23 there it is again whosoever shall say unto this mountain be thou removed and be thou cast into the sea and shall not doubt in his heart but believe that those things which he says have come to pass he shall have whatsoever said now go over to the 12th chapter of the book of Romans Romans chapter 12 verse 3 for I say through the grace given unto me to every man that is among you not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think but to think soberly according as God has dealt to every man the measure of faith now he has not dealt to every man alive the measure of faith now every man every human being alive has faith it's part of the human spirit but it's not the faith of God you have to have human faith I mean you got to believe something you get run over in the street if you know you know you don't believe that thing of kill you that's human faith that's natural human thing but Adams faith was twisted 180 degrees here's babe turned to fear fear is faith fear is faith in something's ability to hurt you fear is faith that a storm can kill you and begins to believe that it will it's faith it's twisted 180 degrees so you remember faith cometh by hearing hearing by the Word of God what happened after Adam fell what happened when he heard God he ran instead of coming just around the other way he ran instead of coming to him he was afraid of him because he's no longer connected to it alright so I say unto every man to think soberly according as God hath dealt to every man every man among you every born-again man v measure of faith every born-again believer every person that ever accepted Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior every person has that made the same measure of faith in them exactly the same you've got exactly the same measure of faith that I did and I got the same measure of a that you did God would be unjust if he gave somebody a grade being Lord and somebody else a little dad no no no and it's the faith of God it is the faith of God yes in a pendulum what you do with your major huh some people do nothing oh you've little faith oh he of no faith I've not seen such great faith in all of Israel yeah whom did he say that the man that needed no other evidence but the world none none you remember the noblemen in Cana oh my the more I read about this man immoral loved him there's a nobleman and he's in Cana remember what happened in Cana water turned to wine yes he's in Cana comes up to Jesus come heal my son Jesus said unless you see signs an American the signs you won't believe now think through that a little bit because the man took his correction he didn't him answer that he just took his correction but Jesus read his heart he's in Cana and you heard what happened here a few days ago you keep you ain't gonna believe this what's the ball said it was the best party rejoice also it also it also it is all over that whole countryside nobody had ever heard of him before first miracle he ever did this guy's hearing all this and he's thinking if that guy can do that he helped my son Peter I wish I could see something like that I'd believe that too I believe that too Jesus read his heart he hears anything Menten he just said sir come ere my son die jesus said go your way our son liveth and he believed what he said and left him went home here believe what he said just took him any word what happened after that well I mean he's hustling home and he got home the next day and he inquired and and said that son liveth he said what happened when did he begin to amend they said at the seventh hour that's one o'clock in the afternoon we know we had a fever we know it's one o'clock in the afternoon now I can't prove this and you can't prove it didn't I am convinced I am completely convinced bill that that boss said whoa I'm hungry it's one o'clock not twelve o'clock one o'clock in the afternoon the fever broke and he said yeah I'll get me something another to eat they said [Applause] when did it happen the moment Jesus City now why did he just say it instead of going with him that's good he'd have died before they got there that's reason Jesus said it right then if Jesus had gone with him like he went to jrss house see the boy the board had died before they got theirs jesus knew that so he just said going on so the board got healed right then that Jesus could have raised him from the dead well why didn't he do that I don't know I ain't running this I just got this I just got this a few days ago I mean don't push me but I Love You Man go your way your son yes sir I'm going I'm going my boys live yeah follow me netball going fishing tomorrow thank you Jesus Gloria Peter God Alleluia say this I have a measure of the same faith that put the stars in the heavens and created all these that'll get you through tough stuff that's reading we preach Thank You G believe it see it believe what the word say what the word the Word of God faith begins where the will of God is known the Word of God is the will of God now wouldn't it be well it is just unthinkable that God would promise you or me something that was not his will for you to have that's the answer to the question how dumb can you get what you think as Betty it thank you lord yeah well unjust Oh God didn't create any new unworthy creatures well a nuclear new creature any man that is in Christ any person that is in Christ is a new creature old things passed away all things became new and all things were of God but they're so unworthy we have a saying in Texas for that you can get the Lord in this place you do try okay [Laughter] the second for the second fundamental of faith is to act on your faith or act on the word now let's go over to James chapter 1 James chapter 1 we'll look at verse 22 now remember James is the oldest book in the New Testament James Jesus half brother same mother different fathers and look 22nd verse chapter 1b he doors of the word and not hearers only deceiving your own self for if any be a hearer of the word and not a doer he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass for he behold of himself with his way straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was men elegant 25 whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty oh the perfect law of liberty you shall know the truth and the truth will make making everything perfect thank you Lord Jesus now he be holds himself and goes his way and forgets what manner of man he was and I've said this many many many times but the Lord gave it to me and it's the best illustration of it that I know or at least I know at this time everybody in this room looked in the mirror today everybody so tell me how long your nose is how long are your ears how wide are you want eyes you don't know unless you've measured it some of you're gonna go home tonight and maybe mine's just over two inches long about doing two and 1/8 something like that I thought I better major because I go out say this all the time now here's the reason his reason you don't know you didn't decide to know yes and then this is what he's talking about when you go to the word reading it without having made the decision I'm gonna act on this you lay your Bible down you know you remember what it says you go to church and boho I'll tell you my spiritual father olá Roberts whoo if you walked up to Clyde if I walk up to him and I said brother Road and I did this man don't once I said brother I said she was he said what was good about what you hear [Laughter] the word of the Lord came last Monday morning last Monday 8 o'clock was the first class of Kenneth Copeland Bible College and and that morning my daughter Terry the the Lord moved on her and she spoke forth a powerful word and everybody there was just and I walked up there to them just moments later you know and and and I said it was wasn't that word wonderful yes I said what did she say I said now go go get that and write it down this is the word that brother Hagin spoke over me in the summer July the 30th of 1977 the day he's that the day this that the Lord Jesus separated me to the office of the Prophet hey I need to hear this but of course I'm blessed to have it on the phone now because and this was this was this was miraculous the way it happened someone gave a very close friend of mine a whole library or brother Hagins messages their own personal library well I agree and it of course I'm looking for I'm looking for camp-meeting 19 70 70 everyone oh yeah oh yeah but you see the importance oh what it wonderful what do you say I don't know why you didn't intend to find out he just sat there and said oh and on oh good and a few goosebumps and that's about the end of it that's not good enough because faith cometh by hearing and hearing by the Word of God then you can feed on these things just feed your spirit and feature your laugh and feed your mind you you take do you take the CDs of this message tonight and you live with it and live with it and live with it and live with it and live with it and live with it I'm speaking to you tonight out of almost 52 years of preaching this same message I learn to listen I the more I learned the more I would find out I don't know I don't know much yet but I know a little something about this mark 11:23 and I'm hungry for more no no no no no I am not hungry I am hungry I am hungry hungry greasy now James chapter 2 please James chapter 2 verse 14 what does it profit my brethren though a man say he hath faith and hath not works now substitute the word works with corresponding action see acting on the word it's dead if you don't act on it so we believe it in our heart we say it with our mouth but you're not done yet act as though the Word of God is true acted I remember when I was a student there or you brother Roberts in and preaching healing he would say do something you couldn't do if you can't do anything but move your little finger you start moving it we were in the invalid room that was the room where there were people and particularly ambulatory people and so forth you know there are times when really really sick people it wasn't that they had something to hide really really sick people crowds make them nervous man and then you get you can be as sick as some of the people that I'm so in there and it just you don't even want to move him this little girl I tell you she's she's in mine of course she's probably 60 years old now but I still see her as a 8 or 9 year old and oh my she wasn't much older than Emily here and she was they her family had brought her in there you know we own a hall in a wheelchair they had a tuba 12 board kind of baling wire tied tied to that that wheelchair and had her strapped to it she was completely paralyzed she couldn't move anything but her eyes yeah he had breached that message and when we hooked over there to her and now before he would come in there I I sat in the room while he was preaching the message and outlined the message then I had him 5 or 10 minutes there that I could go over it before he got there and I can go over this and I I made a big deal out of that you know move whatever you couldn't move your little finger in the still phone song get up on the inside if he can't get up on the outside and and I'm just reap reached that sermons face that good and we walked over there to her and laid hands on her and she just started rolling her eyes she said mama mama mama get me out of this they undid the belts on her she just bolted off that thing wow man like Oh rocket what's she doing she's acting acting on it acting on acting acne corresponding action now thank you Lord if a brother or a sister be naked and destitute of daily food and one of you say unto them depart in peace be he warmed and filled notwithstanding you give them those things which are needful to the body what does it profit even so faith if it hath not corresponding action is dead being alone faith without action is dead being alone now let me give you two stories two testimonies from brother Hagins ministry now this will help you well let me just tell you the story in your life Stan a young woman that was born with very very crossed eyes they tied glasses around with string on her head when she was six months old just horribly crossed eyes and she had to wear very very even thick glasses to control it now her parents and the Hagins were very good friends because they had preached in her dad's Church and then she and her husband were in the minister so they were all knew one another quite well well brother Hagin laid hands on her in the healing line so she's acting she's putting corresponding action to her faith so she took her glasses off and she can't see she tried to drive well now in the first place is he illegal because she can't drive a car legally without her glasses on and so based later they were having dinner with the Hagins and she said she's his own brother Hagin said you'd look at her one minute and get her eyes on the cross and you'd look back at and what I'm going one way he said he said you'd hardly look at her said it just just hard her looks so badly and he said adjust her she said brother Hagin what am I gonna do she said I just liable to run up on the curb or anything driving my children to school he said put your glasses back on now listen listen you listen he said in the morning we'll see when she'd wake up first thing she'd do put her closer or she got up the middle of the night she put her glasses on he said in the morning before you put your glasses on I believe I receive my healing for my eyes mark 11:24 put your glasses on as you drive the children to school I believe I received my healing for my eyes he said every time you think about it I believe I receive my healing for my eyes when you get home at night make it the last thing you do I believe I receive my healing for my well so a couple of years or so later they were in their neighborhood so they went by to see him and they noticed she did not have on her glasses and they said what happened well she said I practiced what you told me religiously for six months and if there was any difference in my eyes I couldn't do it that's where most people would have quit well what's the difference I'm doing all right with these glasses fundamentals practice practice don't ever give up if you're willing to stay there forever you won't be there very long so she said I just kept on I just kept on and she said after three months I began to see some difference they begin to change she said at the end of three more months nine months she said I had 20/20 vision in both eyes she said I went to the I went to the doctor and had my driver's license changed perfectly with now the second one I wanted to tell you about was a very good friend of his at pastored and Assembly of God Church there in Fort Worth now now brother Braun had sugar diabetes they noticed it and when some were in his 30s 35 on thank you and brother brother Hagin you know and and Kenneth Hagin back in those days wouldn't accept the meaning less than three weeks long you couldn't not teaching faith when we start and he went he'd go three four five six weeks sometimes what the longest no thanks something like nine weeks to services a day and and when we started out on our own we had to go three weeks it took two weeks to get rid of the unbelief and then you could have a pretty decent week's meeting all the miracles and everything and breakout then because this is strange strange the strange ears were the Pentecostal ears tradition because of tradition you know and so emboss some I'm getting mad at you get mad and leave and come back get mad I was I was preaching down Beaumont and what would happen the Baptist and the method is predicted Baptist coming and more they hit it like a dog on a bone road you know it thrilled him and the Pentecostals wildfire why I'm fine yeah anyway forgive me Lord and I was preaching our little church wasn't any bigger in this center section here and a fella that had been sitting right down on the front row boys Baptists guy and I'm telling you he was Oh he was absolutely chewing it down and chewing it up and swallowing it oh he was in and I said someone here well you know when you can see everybody in there in the face we got any more people than that anyway he didn't come after it and so our number two and I noticed in the morning service he came in he come right through the door said I'm not on the interview for this and all of a sudden he went mom not Jed regna lacked fell out of his Pew the services in can I talk to you and although yeah please do I said what happened to you well he said you said something that made me mad and he said I told the Lord I ain't going back down there I'm not hearing him or that and he said I just refused to come back and he said the Lord said no I want you to go by now I'm not going down him I won't listen to that that doesn't do that and I'm not going back down there yeah yeah he said and he said you know he said took him three days to get me to come back he said I said I'm going back down there and I'm gonna listen one more time he says anything like gotta get him leaving I'm not coming back and he said I sitting back there he said Oh God open my eyes he said Kenneth the biggest fella I have ever seen was standing right next to you said lucky do you he said you know that mr. clean you say he looked just like mr. clean look at watch them white britches on that white shirt on it he said look just like mr. clean I don't know where bald hit her not but anyway said look just like mr. clean and since you'd kind of wine down said he'd lean over and say something your ear and he said oh you just take off now there's been there's been others that have seen him I never have seen him but he's right here right now ministering spirits you have an angel works with you every human being has one and born again human beings and the the stronger your ministry gets it'll come to the place where you have to have help and he'll call in other Angelics to work with you thank you well you should have shouted right are they not all ministering spirits sent forth to minister for them that are heirs of salvation amen and so he said I saw him just go like brace God yeah so faith without corresponding action is a dead issue you put faith and action and words now you've got angelic support now you have angelic support I'll tell you another boy I just keep thinking well they said that the Lord appeared to him and he said this angel was with him he said he's absolutely huge and he said I'd look over that debt felon he starts to say something not turn around and look back at Jesus and he does he said I'd look over there and he'd start to say something I'm looking him he'd he'd hush I'd look at Jesus he does and so then fine he said well I thought the Holy Ghost was gonna lead me and he went through the scriptures and told him you know how angels had how they work or so for that I'm going to all that but he turned around and to him and he said say ohm well the angel said to him now you will have the amount of money that you need talking about his ministry into the tape ministry and so forth back then then you will have the amount of money that you need for this and don't go in with these men that have offered you this wonderful deal they have ulterior motives don't do it and he turned around and looked at Jesus and Jesus said now you have it and there's dispute let's see why do you or me or anybody else not have any more faith than we have concerning angels because you're not spending any time studying them now we don't worship angels you go the rest of your life I'm not seeing you angel and having much to do with him and you'd still be in and don't be asking to see one the angel of light will come to you only it won't be the angel of light it'll be the devil transforming himself or into an angel appearing to be an angel he's alive you kidding well if I could just see an angel oh no no no no no I'd have faith no you wouldn't faith cometh by hearing and hearing by the Word of God seeing something and feeling something doesn't bring faith never has never will amen and you keep asking God for that begging God for that and the devil take you up on it I'm telling you did you hear what I said [Applause] amen all right now then faith without corresponding action is dead now I want to close this tonight in the fifth chapter of mark mark chapter 5 the woman that was healed of the issue of blood a certain woman which had an issue of blood twelve years had suffered many things of many physicians spent all that she had with nothing better but rather grew worse when she had heard of Jesus came in the press behind and touched his garment for she said for she said for she said to get that for she said if I may touch but his clothes I shall be whole straightway the fountain of her blood was dried up and she felt in her body she was healed she didn't feel it she believed it and then she believed it received it and then fed Jesus immediately knowing in himself that virtue or power had gone out of him turned him about in the press and said who touched my clothes his disciples said unto Him thou seest the multitude thronging and didn't say a thousand tons me he looked around about see her that had done this thing but the woman fearing and trembling knowing what was done in her came and fell down before him and told him all the truth and he said unto her daughter thy faith hath made thee whole go in peace and behold of a plague now she heard what did she hear had to be the word because faith game had to be the word faith K faith game she heard she said now I oh thank God for BVO being oh my goodness Todd I'm telling you like I said like I said well ago I've been preaching this same message for 50 years and I just flipped on video being on Sunday and there was Martin Trina hankins preaching on mark 11:23 God man and he brought up the fact that now there's two different Greek words translated say and the one she said is translated leggo she kept saying
