I Won't Conform

I will not for conformity is what the world is calling for conformity I want that to sink in conformity the left the media Hollywood the entertainment industry the sports industry and many mainline denominations and non-denominational churches all conforming to this world conformity Bible says be not conformed to this world that is to be outwardly shaped a molded conformity the word world here in our text literally means age the word is Eon referring to the present sinful age the world system that is now dominated by Satan you know Satan is the god of this world the Bible says in Romans and second Corinthians excuse me chapter 4 in verse 4 and whom the god of this world has blinded the minds of them which believe not lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ who is the image of God should shine unto them the god of this world is the devil a man the world is the age this present sinful age let me give you a good working definition of the word world world he'll represents the son of the demonic human philosophy of life the some of the demonic human philosophy of life of this life is the world the world is a floating mass of thoughts opinions Maxim's speculations hopes impulses aims and aspirations at any time current in the world it is a floating mass I want to repeat that of thoughts/opinions Maxim's speculations hopes impulses aims aspirations at any time current in the world and see the world changes and one of the reasons the work the world how such a problem has such a problem with Christianity is that to be a Christian Christians resists change it depends on what the change is all about are you with me see this is why we're told in no uncertain terms to love not this floating mass of thoughts impulses Maksim speculations aspirations it hopes that our current at anytime in the world second first John chapter 2 verse 15 says love not the world neither the things that are in the world If any man love the world the love of the father is not in him love of world precludes love of the father you can't love both to love this world is to not love God the Father to love God the Father is to not love the world and the Bible tells us for all that is in the world is the lust of the flesh someone says someone says there's nothing in this world saying there's nothing to offer it's not true the world has everything to offer that your flesh craves it can't offer you anything for your soul that'll make you born again but the yearnings and the cravings of fallen human nature is in the world why do you think so many about athletes and entertainers and people who came up in church but as soon as they made it be why do you think they've forgotten Christ and turn their back on the church and begin to talk a language that you know that they weren't raised to speak they fell in love with the world all that is in the world is the lust of the flesh that is what the flesh longs for that's in the world want to be a movie star I want to be rich I want to be famous I wanna wanna be want to be on Good Morning America I want to be on The Today Show I want I want I want I want I want I want I want to win the Superbowl and I want to make the team all that is in the world anything that your fresh cream the world says a habit flee all that is in the world is the lust of the flesh and the lust of the eye the sinful things every sinful thing that is appealing to you peeling to your eyes is in the world they can't pass enough laws to stop pornography they can't pass you can't put enough things in place to block the things to keep us from doing things in the world that look good to us because the world appears appeals to you lust of the eyes and the pride of life that is the accomplishments in life that that we draw from the make us feel that we are someone in and of ourselves I have a degree I am somebody i built a shopping center I am somebody I work for a fortune 500 company I am somebody I own a fortune 500 company that makes me somebody the world human accomplishment so the lust of the flesh the lust of the eyes the pride of life the Bible says these things pride of life says these things are not of the Father but they are of the world but here's the kicker here and the world passeth away and the lust thereof but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever the world has a powerful Lord it has the ability to draw people Paul tells us in second Timothy chapter 10 section 2nd Timothy chapter 4 excuse me and in verse 10 it says for DeMuth has forsaken me why did Dimas desert the Apostle the Apostle says having loved this present world he loved the world he felt that what the world had to offer was more appealing to his eyes to his flesh and to his pride than the sufferings that Paul was going through at the time and he decided to forsake Paul if you read Colossians chapter 4 verse 14 Philemon verse 24 you will see where this demon was one of the honorable mentions of the Apostle Paul he was one of the men that that Paul would mention and say along with Aristarchus and others who Dimas salutes you mighty man of God this man of faith and power for soup the Apostle because he loved the world love of world is something that you have to pray against love of world is something that you have to resist because the devil is a master at luring people from the church to the world to this floating mass of thoughts opinions and Maxim's and speculations and hopes and impulses aims and aspirations that are current in the world I'm always I keep talking about it because it seems to come up every 30 days in the black community I'm always moved by these little speculations and demonic human philosophies that come up that seem to get the attention of our youth I still marvel why is it that it's so easy why is it easy to get you to disbelieve the Bible what is it about you why do things that go against the teachings of Christ what are these things appeal to you what makes these things interesting it's the world be careful of the world now we see a social political non-religious unholy alliance taking shape we see this happening it is the world and it's happening in the world we see homosexuals transgenders alternative lifestyle people many unsuspecting minorities Muslims and left-leaning black folk Hispanics and American Indians coming together to form a new majority if possible we're in the age of we're in the midst of a grievance society everybody has a grievance now this group is marching and they're striking and this group is marching and everybody everybody now is a victim and and and we're striking and and we're demanding things I still marvel that we live in a nation where you can be here illegally and March and demand certain things while waving the flag of the country that you illegally came for to come into this country and then they I'm very good seaman then we're crazy enough to goddamn March would that's the world in the world now wickedness is called a strength I'll never forget how President Obama and first lady Michelle applauded the young man basketball player is 7 feet tall engaged to a young lady for breaking off the engagement they he was applauded and called strength because he came out as a homosexual oh you get a call from the White House because you come out you drafted in the NFL didn't make the team couldn't couldn't play prays alone but we treated that lifestyle as a virtue that's the world want to help open your eyes here hey man these progressives tend to see themselves as people who believe in reform follow me now in changing society for what they call is better than keep in mind that definition of better leave the God of the Bible out there reforms aren't reforms toward scripture it's with their reforms away from Scripture there are socially liberal most of them favoring more the rights of women and homosexuals and minorities they believe in modernization and technological progress and this modernization or a better word is modernity this movement is is the theology in theology it is to accommodate traditional religious teachings to contemporary thought and especially to devalue supernatural elements that is to take what we've once always believed and make it fit or change it to go along with the contemporary Lauri's of society other words what was wrong yesterday is no longer wrong today that's what that's the one changing everything God of the Bible said that marriage is a union between a man and a law the left is said no everybody will for will to will for marital rights everybody any combination male and male or male and a female or female should be accommodated that is taking that's modernity they take they took what God's sake and turned it on its head that's the world I can't get a Amen in here a man and then they devalue supernatural elements you know you don't want a leading supernatural elements that the world tries to devalue that is the change that takes place when you get born again praise the Lord they devalue God's healing power devalue baptism in the Holy Ghost speaking in other tongues the supernatural elements of what we believe see for the Saints to be supernatural is natural amen amen and is natural to be supernatural we know that the Lord is a healer we know that God is a way makeup we know that God the Father raised Jesus Christ from the dead we believe that Jesus was born of a virgin these are the supernatural elements of our faith we can't let go of those things praising all your you are trying to kill the supernatural or something or these sad songs we sing songs that have no power by the time you get up to preach that God the house is dead because we've allowed you to sleep because songs have no roots you don't like me but I know but you see you got to remember me but one watchman on this wall [Applause] and I don't share that I know what I'm talking you'll see it it all come out I've never been wrong on these things it all come out after a while and I'm gonna have a whole line of you lined up to say I want to apologize to the pet I'm gonna give you the mic this is a trick of Satan when the prizefighter gets ready to fight he listens or something to fire him up when the football team gets ready to play ball they listen to something to fire them up when the basketball team goes out to play these are your Chicago Bulls they go out listen to some that fires arm up now when we get ready [Music] this modernity it is a self conscious break with the pass and and it is a search for new forms of expression it's not the way we do it anymore people aren't doing it like this in a more passive now they don't do it like that anymore anymore a self-conscious way an intentional break with the past the new bad word is the word tradition all traditions now have been placed at the category of called old school which is a polite way of dismissing them oh yeah barber tells us that we're to move not the old landmarks Jeremiah says since Isis for the good old way see if you could find someone who will walk therein and the sad thing was in Jeremiah they couldn't find anybody who would walk in the good old way I'm gonna preach in just a moment but we see this new form of expression as we see dark churches new form of expression we've broken with the pass and and churches that are devoid of the cross or if they are if there is a cross you can't tell it's a call it's sorry sorry it's so enshrined in some design you got to look at it like you're looking at a Picasso or what was that art call that's right you gotta stand there all day oh I see it now something's wrong with that something's wrong with that we've taken the church on the cross out and and we're in the Laodicean age full expression because we've lost the spirit of apathy has taken over and that explains the new casual approach to God the new casual approach it's a pathetic because see when people are doing something that's important alone they don't approach it casually we this new casual laid-back approach to God we come to the house of God looking like we're on our way to the beach we're not hungry for the Lord we're not hungry for a move we're not hungry for delivers not a hunger for a breakthrough the Bible says in the Laodicean age men will say because I am rich and increased with Goods and here it is have need of nothing apathy Laidback oh man no sense of urgency I'm look I'm cool every they laid back that's what we're seeing this is this is the modern move of the church and and for people to be on fire for the things of God it's almost now passe and a thing of the past one of our guests who were with us I think it was Wednesday Thursday night the preacher said to me as demand of God preached and and God was moving on to alter and young people were getting saved and filled with the Holy Ghost and the Lord was breaking through the preacher said to me I haven't seen this in a long time I want you to come to our church it's rare nowadays to see a move of God and in many times saying the move of God that we experience we assume that you can find a move of God any and everywhere but people are now outlawing moves of God there there are churches who say that all that calling on Jesus and clapping your hands and getting excited they will not just say this is not a part of our culture we do not allow that here this is not the way we do oh my oh my but God's been too good to me for me to not to clap my hands he's brought me from too far for me not to get excited about it he's healed me he's lifted me he's kept me he's never left me if I'm gonna lift my voice I'm gonna lift my voice for him oh I will lift my voice not at all if I'm gonna clap my hands I'm clapping my hands for him oh I won't clap my hands at all if I'm gonna dress up I'm gonna dress for him oh I will dress not at all for he is my God he's my king and he's my lord somebody shout I won't conform hmm in our churches and some cases well-meaning but in most cases misguided pastors in an attempt to remain relevant have just become plain old worldly trying to be relevant we've become worldly and a bomb a word bomb that has been placed in our lexicon in our nomenclature a word bomb that has shaken us and I'm telling you you more than we even realized is the word that was the ambiguous word that was introduced a call change change is a beautiful word if it's wrapped it has to be in context change from one and change to whom what am I going you see just change without any direction it's not good see the gospel preacher who preaches change now has changed his nomenclature for Jesus didn't call us to preach change Jesus called us to preach deliverance there's a difference between change and delivery now deliverance is a change but it's a certain kind of change see people are dying now because they they are taking drugs that are killing them so you can change from cocaine to help ease your habit you take up smoking that's changed but you go from one vice to another vice you can change from hard drugs to hard liquor you've just gone from one vice to another vice Jesus didn't offer us change from one face to another Bible teaches that that the captives went free and blind eyes came open you see there is a sudden kind of change that the God of the Bible gives us a man when we talked change with our emphasis on from whom to what we are changing we and then we don't we don't talk about who we leave in and who we're going to and that is not good and let me tell you something what is one of the major hallmarks of the God of the Bible I'm almost through preaching but one of his major hallmarks is his unchangeable Ness oh yeah the essence of the God of the Bible is his exist since you remember in Exodus chapter 3 verse 14 Moses warned to know whom shall I say sit Pharaoh who do I tell he says tell him I am that I am that I that is I am he who always is God identified himself by his existence we served the god of necessary existence that means the God of the Bible cannot not exist he exists he is eternal a meaning no term meaning time time has no bearing on him he made time that's why I I often say that God is good I don't say God is good all the time that's to limit God's goodness God was good before he made time and he'll be good when time shall be no more he's just good over an eternity he'll still be good thorry to God when when when when the wind that that long day God will still be good we serve a God who cannot not be a man because if he could disappear and not exist that means he would be limited because to be limited is not to be but we serve a God who has always been and shall always be he can't change praise the Lord any details because everything is wrapped up in his existence the Hebrew writer said in Hebrews 11 and 6 well without faith it is impossible to please him for he that cometh to God must believe number one that God is and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek Him the Bible says this about the unchangeableness of the God of the Bible Psalms 102 verse 25 through 27 they Clause says of old hats thou laid the foundations of the earth and the heavens are the works of their hands they shall perish but thou shall endure he all of them shall wax old like a garment and as a vesture shalt thou change them you would change the foundations of the earth and the works of your hands like people change clothes hallelujah he says and they shall be changed verse 27 of that song they call says but thou art the same the God of the Bible doesn't age the God of the Bible remains that sounds 102 and then the B Clause of verse 27 says and thy years shall have no end also Malachi chapter 3 and verse 6 the Lord says I am THE LORD thy God I change if not then I heard the Hebrew writer said in Hebrews 13 and 8 Jesus Christ the same yesterday today and forever James got in the fray in James 1 and 17 and said every good and every perfect gift is from above and cometh down from the Father of lights in whom there is no variableness neither is there any shadow of turning we serve a God who is changeless hallelujah and we serve a god who saddled our life see the devil want to get you in a constant state of change in a constant state of moving going here going there up up up routing doing this doing that no no no we serve for God he doesn't keep you on the move we serve a God who settles you Bible says in 1st Peter 5 in 10 but thou God of all Greece who have called us into his eternal glory by Christ Jesus after that you have suffered a while make you perfect establish strengthen and settle you see our God brings peace to our life he gets rid of the chaos he gets rid of the God of the Bible doesn't keep you in a state of constant flux in a state of constant change but he saddles you my god I'm like the songwriter who said my hope is built on nothing less than Jesus blood and righteousness I dare not trust the sweetest frame but wholly lean on Jesus their own Christ the solid rock [Music] is sinking saying somebody say Amen oh my god what a mighty God we serve his truth to the preachers here preachers who are listening the truth of the gospel the truth of Christianity the truth of the God of the Bible is a timeless truth Bible says our sons one hundred and verse five for the Lord is good his mercy is everlasting and his truth endureth to all generation it didn't say that his truth changes from generation to generation didn't say that his truth changes based on who's in the White House then say the roost his truth changed just because a man may be Clare that what God said is no longer truth but the truth of God indoors from one generation to another some of you won't say man right there because you conformed to the world but that's God to forgive you that's God now to give you strength to stand your ground God give me power not to give in I think that's what you like down a little bit praise the Lord hey Manny we will praise a lot this truth hallelujah is from one generation to the other when God said that holiness was right is right in my mother's day that is right today Bible said follow peace with all men and holiness without which no man shall see the Lord and I heard Paul say I beseech you therefore brethren what is the word therefore relating to what is therefore therefore well if you go back to Romans chapter 11 when you start with verse 33 the Apostle Paul gives an amazing doxology he says oh the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and the knowledge of God and he says it with an exclamation point he says how unsearchable are his judgments and his ways past finding out he says who have known the mind of the Lord or who has been his counselor oh who had first given to him and it shall not be recompense unto him for in him for of him and through him and to him are all things to whom be glory forever and ever amen since everything is for him and everything is to him and he made everything and nobody counseled him and nobody advised him and whatever we do for him it will be recompense many times over he's wiser than we are he's glorious and you'll never be able to just see him coming them because his ways the way he does things are past finding out have you ever been in a situation and you didn't see how you were gonna how it was gonna work out but somehow the Lord stepped in and made a way for you have you ever been down for the count and didn't know how you were gonna get out of that hallelujah and the Lord came in and blessed you if you know what I'm talking about lift your hands and say we serve a God whose ways is pathfinding up see some of us have limited our deliverance to the mailbox so we go to the mailbox looking for God to bless us we've limited God to our mother so we call mama say mama can you help me out on him we've limited God's hands to friend but Saints I'm here to tell you take the limit off the Lord tell God anyway you bless me I'll be satisfied I'll just wait and just wait on you and when the Lord gets ready he may use the Ravens he may use a dog he may use the mailman but he knows somebody say yeah God who's always finding out thank you Jesus thank you Jesus somebody tell him thank you I beseech you brethren Gentile and Jew all of you look at your neighbors that this includes me by the mercies of God that you present your bodies now your body not just your mind I didn't get a man there but your body where you go how you live what you do with it who you have sex with god almighty what's your dance to what you put in it what you put on it you can set your body not a dead sacrifice not a ram or gold but you present your body a living sacrifice I wish I had a brain surgeon somebody say holy and acceptable unto God I wonder today how many of us are doing what is acceptable that is well pleasing unto God with our bodies holy and acceptable unto God which is your reasonable service it's your logical worship see we think that this is worship we think that sense of slow song all day that's worship we think losing our emotion is worship but sure worship is lifestyle it's how you live this way you go it's how you pay your bills it's how you maintain your give it power to worship you ride say I can't get any help in here today you don't like me but I'm telling you the truth and I heard him he said it's your reasonable worship and here's my clothes here and be not conformed to this world hallelujah don't let the world shape you don't let the world know you y'all please stop trying to sing like Beyonce and brandy and menage in the world oh my lord tear those so-called Christian rappers stop trying to be Snoop Dog's jay-z's and all the rest of them that's just being molded by the world there's a battle model there's a better model at the close favor machine side all the day somebody praise the Lord raisin for the claws raise and boys power raise and boy is unknown and how many know he's good how many know he's good let me see you praise him like the use of reason let me see it happen thank you Jesus but a lot is good the Lord is wonderful [Applause] somebody gonna break the

want to produce pray a fact that a man could pray to get God to forgive Judah God responds in chapter 15 it tells Jeremiah if Moses and Samuel asked me to forgive these people I wouldn't do it you know why God said they went too far I've been I've been trying to tell him I've been trying to they went too far he says and and cast them out of my sight whoa I never read God said God said cast about get him away from me and that's how they said they said to Jeremiah said well where would we go if the Lord says that God said now they're gonna ask you when I tell them cast him out of myself well they're gonna God said tell those who appointed to death go die tell those who appoint to the sword go get cut tell those who appoint it to famine they better get happy being hungry and tell those who are appointed to captivity that they're going into captivity they went too far now after the Lord I've shown you mercy and God I've talked to you and sent the word to you and and and and
