Every believer
has a voice. And it's the Voice
of Victory. ♪ ♪ My God has made a way for me Now I keep using that great
song by Stuart Hamblen. ♪ God is a good God Now you can't copyright a
title, but you can lyrics. There's another one. ♪ God is a good God, yes he is Uh-huh. Yeah, when I'm white,
when I'm black. And the pastor and the
choir, you can YouTube it. I don't remember his name. But I tell you, get
that and watch that. Listen to that choir. God is a good God, yes he is. Oh yes. Amen. Glory to God. And we're going to
go to first John. Remember this now, class. And I'm talking to the radio
and television audience. Remember this. Peter, James and John. Peter, and the two
sons of Zebedee. This speaks very
highly of Mr. Zebedee. Those three. I mean, they were
in on everything. Now, John the apostle of love. He was the only one they
were unable to kill. - That's right. - And the practice was, you
had this big boiling oil pot, and they'd take Christians with
a grappling hook and just dump them down in there and just
pull a skeleton out of there. They did that to John and they
pulled him out and he had ... - God threw him away. - They threw him out their
own out of Patmos just to get rid of him. Well, you know what happened out
there, he wrote the revelation. Now this apostle of love. He's the only one that
lived out his life. He's the one to whom Jesus
infested his mother. - That's right. - Man, your mother,
mother your son. He took care of her. - That's right. - Now, let's go to first
John in the fourth chapter, look at the fourth, first. Now we're talking
about the love of God. And this is the apostle of
love and the goodness of God. Love is good and everything good
created was God and everything God created was good. Now notice you are of God little
children and have overcome them then want them devils. Because greater is he that's in
you than he that's in the world. Now come over here. Right in the midst
of all of this. Verse 10, here in his love. "Not that we love God, but that
he loved us and sent his son to be the propitiation or
sacrifice for our sins. Beloved. If God so loved us, we ought
to also love one another." Now come on down here
to the 15th verse, whosoever shall confess that
Jesus is the son of God, God dwelleth in
him and he in God. And we have known, look, we have
known and believed the love because he is so good. Believe the love. I learned that what I
talked about yesterday, that God loved me as
much as he loves Jesus. And it changed my
entire existence. He loves me. He cares for me, more
than I can understand. But look at this, here in us and we have believed
that God loved us. God is love. And he that dwelleth in
love, dwelleth in God, here in is our love made perfect
that we may have boldness in the day of judgment because as he is so are
we in this world, there is no fear in
love shall fear David. And he was afraid of him
because he saw things in him he wished he was. - Right. - And used to be. - Right. - He was once like
this young man. Now, there is no fear in love,
but perfect or growing mature love casts out fear. You cannot cast out
fear with faith alone. It's the power of love
that the power of God, faith field words dominate
the laws of sin and death. Now, Greg this is so huge. There is no fear in love. Perfected love-
- Cast out fear. - Cast out fear, because
fear has torment. He that fears is not
made material in love. We love him because
he first loved us." Now you just follow
this, follow all this. This is a good God and the
man that the devil just couldn't kill. - That's right. - He just couldn't handle him. Glory to God- - I will always referred to
himself as the disciple whom the Lord loves. - Yes, that was his confession-
- Confession over himself. - He said that he
wouldn't call himself. He said, "I'm the one that God
loves." Well now he was there when Jesus said, "If you believe
what you say will come to pass you will
have what to say. So he put that into operation. So now you come on down here and
then you come down, verse four, a fifth chapter,
"Whatsoever is born of God, overcome the world and
this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith, who is he that
overcome with the world but he that believed that
Jesus is the son of love." Jesus is the son of love. - Son of goodness. - Yes. The son of God is good. Glad you brought that up. Let's go to the book of
Colossians real quick. Glory to God. Here it is, right here in this
first chapter of Colossians. Mm-hmm. Dear Lord I love this book. But let's come down here. I write this one on
my Partner Letter. "For this cause we also
since the day we heard it do not cease to pray for you." I do not cease to pray
this for my partners. "And desire that you might be
filled with the knowledge of his will and all wisdom and
spiritual understanding that you might walk worthy of
the Lord and all pleasing." How do you please
him with faith? "Being fruitful in
every good work, increasing in the
knowledge of God, strengthened with all might
or all Dunamis, all power. According to his glorious
power unto all patience and long suffering with
joyfulness. Giving thanks unto the father
which made us meet or able to be partakers of the
inheritance of the saints in light who had delivered us. Who has already delivered us
from the authority of darkness and has translated
us into the kingdom." The Agape kingdom of God. - By the blood. - The kingdom of love. - Yes. Kingdom of love,
kingdom of goodness, light kingdom of faith,
kingdom of light - brightness. - Yes. Amen. Now you started this
in first John four. You are of God little children. There's a theme
here all week long. - Yes. - The maturity, understanding
knowledge of good and evil requires... - We've got that out of the
book of Hebrews, - Hebrews chapter five-
- And how do you do that? - You stay in the Word and you
believe it and you meditate it. You can't just read it. What happened to Joshua? Moses has gone and now he got to
go into combat and he knows it. And the last time
he was over there, there was some
really big people. - That's right. - But now, no Joshua
and Caleb said, "no, no. We can do it 40 years ago
when you still do it now." But what did his
instructions ...?
Let's look at it. Joshua and the eighth
chapter or excuse me, the first chapter. He said to him in
the fifth verse, "Thou shall not any man be
able to stand before thee all the days of their life, as I was with Moses show I
will be with thee, I will not fail thee
nor forsake thee. - God with us. - Yes. With him. - Now you be strong and of good
courage for under this people shall you divide for an
inheritance so forth. Only be thou strong
and very courageous. Now he's thinking
about all this. He's got to face these people. He really doesn't know
what's over there. And he's been a long time
out there in that desert. And he's an old man now. And he's got a job in front
of him and he's the combat commander now. But he's got a good army. All the old ones are gone. The 70 and 80 year
olds are gone. I've got a bunch of young
men, 20 years and older. But he's thinking
about all this. You be strong now. Look verse eight. "This book of the law shall
not depart out of your mouth, but you shall meditate there in
day and night that thou mayest observe to do according to
all that's written there in. For then you will make your way
prosperous and then you will have good success." Now here's what he said. Now you've been in combat. - Yes sir. - You know what it's like. I didn't have the honor and
privilege of doing that. I was between wars. But it's on your mind. Particularly the first time
you had to get over there. What's he going to be like? Am I going to hold up? I'm trained. My trainings worked and I
know I'm willing to do this. I've been through all that
training and all that, but what's it going to be like? What are the people like
that I'm going to be up against over here? And how am I going to die today? And Josh was thinking
about all that. So notice what he said. You meditate on my
word day and night. You get your mind on me. You think about me. I'm the one you thinking about. Not those people over there. I'm God. They're just people. But you work for me. You're well-equipped, I've
already taught you that there's an angel with you. And he's still there. You go back to Exodus 23, 25
and you don't start in the 25th verse. You go back up the 20th verse. And he said I'm putting an angel
with you because Moses said, "We can't go by ourselves. No he said, "I'm putting
an angel with you and he'll bless you. Your bread and water. Now I'll take sickness from
the midst of it." So he said, "You think about me. You get your mind on me. I'm good, they're bad. You win." - That's what David did. David had his mind
on God instead of... Everybody else had
their mind on Goliath. - Yes. - And he had his mind on God. He knew he was not alone. You were with me
when I slid a bear. You're with me when
a slew a lion. For the couple of, in
the year 2020 last year, we had a whole lot of believers
get their mind on a virus, rather than I have a covenant. I've had an angel. He blessed my bread and
water, takes sickness from the midst of me. That's what our mind
should have been stayed on. - Yes. Instead of the
television. We turned it off. And you can get to where you
knew what it was going to say. And because all
eight people died. Oh there's a whole lot
of people died today. The regular flu is still killing
people because they still eat the same stupid way that they
ate before they got that. This is the regular flu. There's a whole lot of people
getting over the regular flu without any vaccine. And I tell you class. Gosh, riding motorcycle
with a mask on her face. Mask that do any good outside. It's the magic virus that
can only go six feet. - And more and more truth
is coming out about that. You mentioned combat. There was a sergeant that I was
with that he was a Vietnam vet. He was in the guard now. And he'd been around a while. And I picked him out
real quickly and I said, "I'm hanging around
that right there. Because he knows some things. And all the stripes
are on his shoulders. - Oh yeah. - And we went into a one
deal and that thought. And he could recognize
the look for everybody. And I remember him saying,
"We're not dying today." And that's what he said,
that's all he said. We're not dying today. We're going to do this mission. We're going to go back. We're going to
sleep in our bunks. We're going to have
dinner tonight. What's he doing? He's changing the way all
of us were doing this. - Because he had been there and
been there and been there and been there and we're
not dying today, - Right. He'd come
from the army. He had a combat infantry badge. And he was allowed to
wear it, thank God on his Air Force uniform. And that's when I realized
I'm just hanging around that guy right there. - Sure. - And he would talk
to you like that. We're going to do our job. We're going to get these
guys that are wounded out. We're going to get them
back to the hospital. We're going to have
dinner tonight together. I mean, that's the way he
talked to you to get that fear out of you. Absolutely right. Because none of us, we hadn't
been in a school yard fight. That's about all we'd been now. - Here's my concern. And I'm saying this to the
radio and television audience. This prove to me that you could
so motivate an entire nation of people with fear
of a flu virus. That there are people now, I'm
not condemning the people, do you understand? I'm condemning the
devil and I'm in love, scolding Christian people that
allowed this to happen to you. There are people that are
receiving their vaccine so that they can fly on
the airlines. I can understand
your need to fly. I'm not knocking that. But listen, if he can persuade a
people to be vaccinated so that you can do business, also
you can brand their hand in their Ford with a
mark of the beast. I saw it. I saw how easy it is to do. And it just ran
cold chills over me. - And persecute the ones
that wouldn't do it. - Are you kidding me while
you're putting your little child in danger because you
won't receive the vaccine. - You can't come in... - And I have medical doctors
that just cringe when they think about that little baby
had been taken a vaccine. That it is unknown thing. It has not been tested. And there's no need for that
little baby to have that vaccine in the first place. And when you get down to the
bottom line, what is it? The love of money. The love of political power. - That's right. - The fear of the Lord is
the beginning of wisdom. - Yes it is. - And that's the
principle thing. And that's what
we've got to be done. And all of this children,
I truly believe what did he tempt him with? God's withholding
something from you. And in the day that
you eat of this, you will know what he knows. You'll be like God. Well, they already were. I believe based on type and
shadow that they had been in the garden for about
33 years. 33, 34, 35 years, because
Jesus is a second Adam. I truly believe over
and over and over. We see children, children,
children, maturity. They're going to
learn how to judge. I believe their father
would have taught them. - Well, no question about it- - Without having to
eat of the tree. - No question about that because
Jesus knew the difference between good and evil and
he got it out of the Word. - Right. - Well, we know the first
murder was over the tithe. - That's right. - So that fruit actually
was their tithe. It belonged to God. Don't eat this. Don't spend your tithe. They were explicitly
commanded not to eat that, but they did it anyway. Greg, I'm totally
convinced of this. Had they waited, picked it. It obviously was green. It hadn't ripened. It was not the time. Had they waited and
brought that fruit to him. It was their job to tend
all of that garden. - Right. - And to bring him what
belonged to him then because of what we know about the tithe. He would have sat them
down and said all right. Let me teach you something. - That's right. That's what he had done. - The Hebrew word for being
tender's of the garden. Don't think of
somebody mowing grass. - No, no. - The actual Hebrew word likens
them to a priest of the garden. And he's anointed us to
be kings and priests- - And to guard it. Protect it. - Absolutely right. - Because there were
nothing bad in there. - No. - No. The weeds and stuff
didn't come to later. - And they were supposed to make
the rest of the planet like that place. - It should have, you got a bunch of barren
planets out there. Had they continued
to carry this on, had families and grow with
this until the earth was what it should have been. Then this strong desire
in man to get into space, he should have been
there to start with. - Right. - It would have been time then
to start populating other planets, which had
been there a long time. We know that before
they ever got here. Because there had already been a
flood when that first generation was wiped out. God didn't create this
planet full of water. - Right. - Come on. Then he flooded it
again and he said, "I'll never do that
again." - That's right. He created us to have a
relationship- - This should have been the
garden spot of the universe right here. And God never changes his plans. - No. - It's coming, a new heaven- - It's coming, a new heaven
and a new earth- - And a new earth. No, no, no. Now it's going to
be this same place. - The whole
earth creation growneth for this thing to be done. - And this thing I said,
"Okay, now come out here and just come on out
here with me. And we would just get rid of all
this." Now, let's start over. You have to understand
that heaven is a planet. It has a north and south
and the east and west. It has to be round. It's not flat and not over
the edge there'd be dragons. - No. - No. He said accomplish. Now it'll still be that way. And the manifestation
of heaven itself will all be one
powerful creation. He'll start over again. And we will have a part in the
creation of the new universe - and it'll come through one
man and Philippians Paul will write in Philippians
chapter two, verse eight. And being when did I get older? - Yes, sir. - I want to put it
in my eyes, yes. - Well, let's go. Philippians chapter
two, go to verse six. "Who being in the form of God,
thought it not be robbery to be equal with God, but made
himself of no reputation took upon him the
form of a servant, was made in the likeness of men and being found in the fashion
as a man, he humbled himself into become obedient onto death. Even the death of the cross. Wherefore God also
hath highly exalted him, given him a name
above every name." This is the man that
will redo everything- - Yes it is- - And we're in him
and he's in us. We're one, as they are one. - There are coming to that time
and we will have to hold him up. We will have to stand. When he says depart from
me I never knew that, - the day he dreads... - and we're out of time. Come on Jeremy glory

the book of Galatians chapter six, verse six says,
"Let him who is taught the Word, sharing all good things
with him who teaches. Do not be deceived. God is not mocked for
whatever a man sows, that he will also reap."
Don't you like that? Don't be deceived. I like to say it like this,
quit kidding yourself. You're kidding yourself if you
think you can reap something that you haven't sown. Or you're kidding yourself if
you think you can sow something and reap something else. This scripture is clear to us. When you sow into the Spirit
you reap from the Spirit. And that's what offering
day on this broadcast is an opportunity to do,
to respond to the Word
