Special Guest: Chris Blackeby

hey everybody this is tommy miller i'm the senior pastor at legacy church we're really excited that you decided to join our podcast this morning our intention is to give you the information and the resources that you need to bring heaven to earth by walking in the fullness of your identity and your destiny enjoy the sermon enjoy your day be blessed and do what jesus did without waiting any longer i told chris that he can say whatever he wants for however long he'd like to and uh and we're gonna get everything out of him he's got to offer so chris blackbear would you join us amen thanks bro hey everyone all right i'm sure you all understand my accent by now you've had several several turns oh that's good what's he saying fantastic all right i'm not sure whether sam is going to go laura any requests you came the furthest okay have a nine hour teaching on on on the first few chap first few chapters of genesis so go go watch it if you've got nine hours free okay um you're here because uh you heard a word and that word is that uh creator god uh sent his son to reveal to us that he's a good father and that you can have access to that good father through that son not just access but he actually makes you a son when you receive that word you get transformed to a son of god by hearing a word that's it i'm believing that word that's it no flesh can boast in that so you weren't a buddhist that became a christian an atheist that became a christian or a nominal baptist that became a on fire whatever christian okay you didn't change belief systems you changed species that's literally what happened you were a human okay and now you are a son of god you're a different class of being and now we need to learn about this class of being what's it like to be a beloved son of god because you've never been a beloved son of god before not like this it's a new thing for us and it's the opposite to everything we ever learnt we grew up in a very we say scarce resource or set resource world only so much time only so much love we use these things well economics is the study of the best use of scarce resource we have economics in our head it's the wisest thing we've come up with okay but we come from a kingdom that has no lack and we have to start thinking like people from that kingdom except you were taught the opposite and then if you learned the opposite and did well in the opposite you were rewarded well done you're very good with scarce resources that's good stewardship that's very wise okay and also we operate out of this there's only so much love to go around only so much forgiveness to go around i need so much generosity the generosity to go around and that's how we were taught but jesus came and showed us how a son of god interacts with this earth so when you read the gospels you're not peter you're not john you're not the centurion you're not doubting thomas you're not the pharisees you're not mary you're not martha you're christ that guy because he's a son of god that class of being son of god doesn't mean male is a type of being human doesn't mean male son of a god doesn't mean male it's just that is the class of being that you are and in creation there's all sorts of classes of beings most we don't even know about the seraphim there's cherubim there's benoit elohim humans other things going around okay as all different beings yeah and you are a son of god and there were sons of god before us genesis 6 talks about them these sons of god did naughty things okay did not end well for them or for us but there's something different about us jesus was the uniquely begotten son of god we used to interpret that scripture the only begotten son of god but now we realize as we learned more about greek that word monogenesis we thought mono means one like monocycle or monocle or whatever we assumed but now we've got more greek reference text we realize that mono means unique the uniquely begotten son of god because there are other sons of god okay and they were created but jesus wasn't created he's unique uniquely begotten and this uniquely begotten son of god the word that always existed word is a seed mary received that seed jesus is incarnated becomes a being on the earth through a person that's unique and that being that jesus is fully man fully god is what we are we are the exact same class of being as jesus christ he walked on this earth and he was uniquely begotten you are you the uniquely begotten sons of god not created okay we're not actually sort of part of creation anymore people argue about this but we are begotten of god human the bible says first adam which all humans are first adam is a living being that second atom is what you are you've transferred from adam 1.0 to adam 2.0 okay you're adam from heaven not adam from the earth no adam from the soil earthly but born of the spirit spiritual okay you're a spirit being first adam is a living being second adam is a life-giving spirit that's what you are you've changed species you are now a life-giving spirit but you've never been a life-giving spirit before so we have to learn we all have to learn what's it like to come from a place with no lack what's it like to come to a place that doesn't recognize death or lack what's it like to come from a place that doesn't recognize delay or disobedience in heaven if god says to do something it's done here we go well i'll think about that i'll weigh it up that's not where we come from we belong to another kingdom and fortunately for us we are the son of god the uniquely begotten son of god who is here who showed us how that works and a uniquely begotten son of god beloved son does what he sees the father doing and we know exactly what the father was doing because jesus did it it's a circular argument okay what was jesus doing jesus was being good to all and the only people he was harsh with and very harsh are people that blocked access to the knowledge of god he was good to naughty people he was good to immoral people he was good to pagan demon worship worshiping people there's only angry one one group class of people people that blocked access to the father so jesus uh has a famous sermon in matthew 5 the sermon on the mount i think it's one of the greatest discourses in all written human history that people like a philosophy student will study all the great discourses of in human record this seminal amount it's changed the fabric of human consciousness and society for christians and non-christians but we know it's a sun describing his father's kingdom if you read the sermon on the mount it's full on jesus not saying hey here's the ten commandments keep this he's saying forget that keep this standard don't even hold anger against someone don't even lust after something and it's impossible to keep and that's okay because that's the point the ten commandments we kept giving it another shot like we'll do it this time yeah every time israel failed they come back no our fathers failed it we we'll keep it we'll do the job this time yeah and that's what we do ah sorry god i messed up but this time i will keep some standard which i made up or maybe satan made up for me you know religion so the same on the mount is impossible to keep and that's the point he says you need to be this righteous more righteous in the pharisees you can't do it bingo you can't do it so you can only be received as a gift you can only be this is my width here okay you can only be here technology wise on the camera can they be here but theologically as well you're going to be here completely wretched in your own strength your flesh which got you kicked out of the garden of eden or christ picks you up and put you here completely righteous forever that's all you can do there's no other places every other position is an invention of satan it's the knowledge of good and evil which is the fathering of satan because we believe and i still believe because my soul has been trained i catch myself all the time you believe that jesus came down you see the holy spirit and jesus got you to maybe here then church attendance gets you here tithing on ten percent of the gross get you here bible study gets you here you know forgiving your mom gets you here and eventually if you get anointed performing enough miracles you can be the super christian here yeah but if you don't perform miracles you saw oh then you yell at your mum and then you watch game of thrones ah and then you think i'm sorry about game of thrones sorry about season eight so you get your back you move you move closer and then you start tithing you think if i can maybe tithe i could just reach i can't do that bit that's for the super christians who are on stage okay or have ministries on tv and like i can just reach out you know and maybe god will give me something okay that is all a wicked invention paul says if anybody preaches that may it be eternally condemned or the words anathema maybe they may be wiped out from existence it says if righteousness could be achieved by your behavior then christ died for nothing yeah so you can only be completely opposed wretched separated from god in your conscience in your understanding okay or in your reality in your being as a human being or you change species and you always live here no matter what because you're a spirit being one spirit of christ in heaven in the beloved you'll be made perfect forever in the beloved says ephesians one raise and seated says ephesians up here there are your two choices so you're a saint or you ain't that's it all this stuff here is an invention okay but this is how our conscience works because it's been trained to do this okay and so you know maybe you think you're here and you do something you don't read your bible study that morning because your church says bible study every morning okay you've broken the law that you invented so you got a step back in your conscience i didn't do a bible study this morning maybe god's not going to talk to me another church doesn't have that rule you don't do a bible study doesn't cross your mind your church has that rule so back you go you know and then you didn't tithe on the gross of 10 percent so you know back you go okay but then you let another week go by you type next week so you think i'm back again okay this is how we this is how we think you say oh i think this is how my this is how we all think and we judge our things okay so if you do something a little bit stupid it's like you don't talk to god for an hour but if you do something deliberately stupid you know you sort of don't talk to god for three days because three days all works it out you know worked out how how god works three days of silence you know things have happened he's watching the world he's forgotten about those things i can come back to him this is all demonic thinking okay this is full on thinking this is the knowledge of the good and evil and your knowledge of good and evil not someone else's okay let's go to a church and i was at church six days a week all right and i wasn't one of those meetings i felt like i'd done something wrong yeah i talked to my catholic friends and they went to church twice on easter and the christmas and they thought god loved them twice a year they went to church four marks tick i want to do i want christmas and easter i can go talk to god i fulfill all my rules i miss prayer meeting you know [Music] maybe next week i'll go to prayer meeting of um war fed for the tsunami of revival coming to adelaide south australia as prophesied by smith booger's worth blah blah blah you know which never happened and and then and then if i i've done that i think i can be here but the trouble is that's bringing the very thing that got us out of god's presence to him to get us back in the knowledge of good and evil my knowledge good and evil what's my knowledge my knowledge of six meetings a week is is my knowledge my catholic friend his knowledge is two meetings a year who's right another right it's all made up there's only salvation that's only been born again the only thing that counts is the new creation that's all that counts either you're not or you are either you're not in heaven or you are in heaven forever one with god and this being that's here is a son of god okay and now we think if i can do it i don't know what the camera's gonna do but bear with me let's do it this way okay so we think we're a human down here on the earth and heaven's up here and you know we get uh baptized and we maybe we start speaking in tongues gold standard christianity and then we start giving money you know doing outreach or something or changing my life i think we're getting closer and closer to heaven let's stop i just do outreach to be on fire doing outreach on the street but don't do it anymore so you know i'm back down here okay this is all made up because you're not on earth praying up to god send something down okay you're in heaven next to your father in christ looking down on the earth old times we're looking down okay i'm not for against spiritual warfare but if you're gonna do it you go down okay you're on earth praying about spiritual warfare like we think these things run the heavens okay oh my goodness every town i go to has the worst witchcraft that's their boast oh chris the freemasonry here oh my goodness oh chris the witchcraft in this area will be fighting against it everyone thinks there's this craziest craziest witchcraft is in their town if it was it doesn't matter jesus okay if the risen christ was the reason christ was there he was like oh no the freemasonry i can't do anything okay but you're that guy when paul walked into ephesus as i said here before did he do like a prayer walk and then contend and apologize for everything they've done in their history and all those things like that he's walked in as a son the son of god he in christ just walks into ephesus and everything has to shift around him because he knows that you're the same i'm the same but i just have to know it and how do i know these things by hearing a word by hearing what you're hearing now this is the gospel the power to salvation you've been born again a new creature by hearing a word how do you mature as a christian and change the christian by hearing a word the foolishness of preaching now believing and acting on that word is your response but when you hear a word the word's a seed that goes into you okay and in that word this seed is everything you need the power to believe everything's provided for you you have to work out belief if you hear a word in that word is in a seed is everything that tree needs to become a huge tree that reproduces after its own kind all right so in a sermon in a word when you hear that word that goes into you even the ability to believe it is in that seat all you have to do is be soil that's all it is it's the foolishness of preaching so that every person the gospel is for every person it doesn't matter your age it doesn't matter your intelligence doesn't make you history it doesn't matter you're trauma it doesn't matter anything you just have to believe a word a scientist a phd scientist nobel prize winning scientist has to believe a word okay uh a an addicted mother of three just has to hear a word okay it's the same because the word is made to make humans into sons of god and god knows you've never been a glorified son of god on the earth before he knows he remembers you're made of dust he remembers these things and the gospel is the complete package for you to walk in the fullness of the statue of christ in your lifetime the fivefold giftings so all these ministry gifts we're talking about that give you this this word or your time with christ or your bible study your worship or revelation or dreams or whoever you hear from god the five-fold ministry are there to build you into the fullness of the stature of christ that means exactly like christ that's what it means the fullness of the statue of christ that's what they're there for not there to build ministries they're not there to impress you not really there to minister to your immediate needs they're there to build you into the fullness of the stature of christ now you imagine how much fasting you'd have to do to be exactly like jesus in the gospels how much bible reading would you have to do you have to read the bible all day and fast all day you know like you can't do it and that's the point it's a gift it's a gift by hearing a word and believing it and that sea will grow into full maturity which seed the seed of a beloved son of god that's what you receive when you receive christ the seed of being the beloved son of god and all it's doing is growing up to its fullness that's all it's doing it's a rest in the work of god you can't do it you can cooperate but you can't do it you can respond you can believe you can change you can pursue diligently but you can't earn it it must come from outside this room and that's what's happened when you believe the word no matter how it was presented to you if you heard a pretty dodgy version of it if you believed that jesus christ like died for your sins and remove and you were born again that's it you just didn't know exactly what you received at that time because the church doesn't know because here's the thing what salvation is for us has been framed up okay and what you get saved into is what you believe it is okay so you get saved into catholicism you will uh believe that it's necessary necessarily necessary to honor the pope and uh maybe fast on fridays depending which one you're worth with and then you want to make sure you confess get the confession you want any sins counting against you if you die you know and then to honor that you might do certain prayers in repetition and you need to go and get communion from only a priest and kneel and stand at certain times you know these are things that you will believe because you love jesus jesus is the son of god he took away my sins and this is how i honor him because you got saved into that system and so it's framed up you're human on earth if you do all these things maybe when you see him he'll count you righteous as part of the catholic church under the one true church under the one true pope and you'll get in maybe yeah they don't they don't know and they're not sure and then you're a catholic all right let's say you're a catholic in the 1500s there's these guys in germany that are saying that you don't need to do any of those things you only need to believe now your connection to the catholic church its buildings its history its structure the pope is a direct descendant from peter you know and all these things and all your behaviors that you're good at because you love jesus so you you really try to do it because you love jesus and you're grateful you can leave all these things and just go to believing i just believe that all these things i'm doing to impress god jesus has done it for me and give that to me as a gift you are risking in your mind eternal damnation to believe a word okay it's a big deal to go from catholicism to being a lutheran in that time it's a big big deal because you're risking awful things in your mind okay and then you might lose your job and your career and your maybe even your life yeah and now you have a child the child is saved into being a lutheran and they know they're saved by faith by grace they're all very happy with this and then you take that child you tell that child who loves jesus very grateful for jesus becomes an adult you take that adult he's been with god now for 25 years he said hang on you need to go to a church building go through all the steps kneel fast onto the pope this person has knows jesus through grace there's no way they're going to go back there and eat fish on fridays to make sure they get to heaven okay it just blows their mind there's no way you go that way okay but going this way is a big decision yep so they've got someone who's a great lutheran and they're on the history of luther and then the revelation he brought that was saved by grace and they're very grateful for that and uh god's exception to his kingdom he's very grateful that someone comes along and says guess what when you read an act how the holy spirit fell on people and gave them gifts and signs and wonders you can do that too you're like what yeah now you can prophesy and heal well i can prophesy do you prophesy yeah you're a prophet like in the bible you can heal people like the apostles can heal people is that that's what you're telling me yeah yeah it's not this that's what christians can do well like paul you're gonna heal someone like paul healed someone is that what you're telling me okay yeah you receive the holy spirit and he gives you the power to be like christ on the earth that's a big thing you know you're six generations lutheran you know your grandfather's a lutheran pastor famous you know and then you have to leave all that tradition to something because these guys think lutherans are demonic the lutherans think that these charismatics are demonic all right you have to leave all that and go this way receive the holy spirit and now start uh operating like a supernatural ministry like a christian like it's in the book of acts and doing the works of jesus by the power of the holy spirit and seeing healings and seeing signs and wonders and miracles and even more crazy cooperating with angels well that's that's crazy okay and then you do that you do that hard task and then some you have a child child grows up in that you know gives words sees things has dreams etc uh these people get healed caesar auntie get healed they grow up uh prophecies caesar all maybe some gold dust fell during a service i don't know sees it all you say that person no no that's not real if they come back to lutheran church and never do any of those things all those healings all that legal hospital all those financial breakthrough miracles all that provision no no you just accept that god saved you by grace and then you wait yeah you're not going to do that or this okay because if you grew up in it it's framed up for you yeah so whatever you grew up in what you're saved into is framed up for you and you won't go backwards but it's very hard to go this way because your friendships are in this that area you may have found out if you've come to this church you may have lost some friendships or lost some connections or you may have come from another church and uh you went to the crazy tommy miller church okay and going this way is difficult but your children grew up in this okay but what we're experiencing now is not it because this is how humans think when you're driving on the freeway the speed you're going on that day in that moment is the correct speed and if you're doing 70 and some idiot is doing 69 you go what's this idiot doing go around him he's gone so slow yep you're driving some person goes past you idiot he's going too fast yeah because you were going the scientifically correct speed for that that road on that conditions in that moment and everyone else is wrong okay that is how we think like i'm a lutheran those catholics are crazy those they're going too slow those charismatics are crazy they've gone into excess yeah so right now the gold standard of christianity is uh maybe a charismatic pentecostalism with beautiful worship that believes in revival and healings yeah but that's not it that's just what's framed up you're born in heaven of god you're in heaven a heavenly being spirit born of spirit spiritual ministering down into the earth in the exact same way that yahweh ministers down into the earth when you pray to jesus and ask jesus to do something because he's this big powerful son of god being that thing you're asking him to do you're the same being he wants you to do that thing in the same way he did it how did jesus do it he would know who he is and speak it out and command it to happen look i'm looking my own life now like i'm not okay i understand but we are becoming this being which being exactly like the risen christ from all love and wisdom for the glory of the father speaks into creation no flesh speaks yeah and from the speaking being he also came down looked after people's souls you also fed them food and washed their feet yep this is who we are spirit soul body because like catholicism for example or all your traditional churches anglican what you call them here episcopal whatever you call them they're body churches okay what you do in your body is very important so you have to go take your body to a physical church you go nil stand up kneel stand up sit down okay and you put your physical body in a physical building at a certain time you're doing the right thing oh and dress physical clothes is very important okay yeah and this is moving into soul we love healing love ministry the worship is very much a connection to god these guys sing about god because he's so far away these guys sing to god is much more both are good okay i'm just saying this is their expression and the soul was very important and doing ministry is very important okay uh the presence of god on earth is very important and they these guys don't believe really in miracles except for sometimes a saint will do something special okay we're all saints we'll perform miracles okay and we all know that god can come down and give us a glory realm we can come down and give us a miracle or he can come down and give us revival yeah these guys don't believe that they're waiting for rapture like rapture it's going to come any moment okay these guys we're not they're going way too slow this is the correct speed praying for revival was the correct speed wanting god to come down but none of these things are a son of god which is what we are in our core nature as a free gift we are sons of god in heaven already everything these guys are hoping for and these guys are hoping for when they physically die when i'm physically dead i'll be in heaven with god i will see the saints and the ecclesia and the cloud witnesses and the angels i'll be pure and holy there'll be no separate preparation no separation between me and god everything they're hoping for when they die is yours already because they think and this is where it gets evil they think the death of their physical body death is their gateway into heaven that's the curse jesus death the death of his physical body and resurrection put you here so i've got good news for you you've all died and gone to heaven and that can't be changed we're in the beloved ephesians one this is what he predestined before the foundation of the of the world to make you holy and blameless in his sight forever he's done it by giving you the righteousness of his own son second corinthians 5 says he became sin that we may become the righteousness of god you are the righteousness of god you're allowed to be here in fact you are here you're always here this is the being that you are so i don't know what got framed up for you i started catholic they went evangelical they went charismatic they went pentecostal they went this weird mixture of heaven faith thing okay and every time because i knew jesus existed i wanted to be good for him and i thought this is it good catholic education then i found evangelical churches that oh this is that this is it and it didn't satisfy it didn't work and then i found charismatic christianity i thought oh this is it i can pray through my generations i can pray for breakthrough revival is going to come to earth etc you know and then that didn't work i'm still very sick i was actually still very depressed and i didn't think god liked me still and i took that in into better and better versions of but they're all made up i'm moving from one box to another box a bigger box that's all i'm still outside heaven needing god to do something for me but god's taking me through that curtain through that veil raised me up one with christ seated in the beloved in christ in heavenly places with him and everything i'm desiring i already have because i believed once because i believed once i changed species and i was a human being and now i am a son of god and son of god means i have that dna because i have that dna all this is my inheritance i don't earn it inheritance is something you get because of someone else's work you didn't earn your inheritance that's the point of it this is all wages kneeling whatever spiritual warfare whatever wages this is inheritance from my dna and i have it because my dna is the righteousness of christ my actions didn't qualify me for this so my actions don't disqualify me my attitude didn't qualify me my attitude doesn't disqualify me this is given to me because of my new dna i'm allowed to be in heaven right now because i'm a heavenly being i'm born again from above this is my home this is where i belong this is not where i belong i'm a stranger in this world an alien in this world this is my home i'm a heavenly being i bring this kingdom down and i speak like this kingdom speaks i think like this kingdom thinks now we weren't trained in this way so we need to be transformed by renewing of our mind yeah because we are everything you want to be you are already that because what was given to you is the nature of the risen glorified glorified christ romans 6 says don't you know you're baptized into christ you're baptized into his death the same that rose him from the dead rose you from the dead so you can partake in the same resurrection life that he has not jesus of nazareth walking around performing miracles jesus the risen glorified christ after the cross that guy that's what's given to you holy and righteous forever you know even jesus people if i told people you're in the bible you're not peter or paul you're jesus like walking around that freaks him out that's too much but no that's too little you're not that guy he was a c3 or jewish guy all right you're not that someone maybe okay i don't but we're not that he was under the law well not that he had an undefeated enemy but not that he completed the law the food the enemy and put us back into heaven where that the thing that jesus earned he earns it okay is given to us the finished work of what he earns is given to us complete righteousness forever in the sight of god we are always this here now your soul might feel it's here and your body may feel it's here you might do something stupid you might think it moves you to here and do another thing stupid and i think it might might move you to here and then you do something good you might move it here and something good might move to here okay that's all nonsense it is the doctrine of demons it's religion it's the tree of the knowledge of good and evil using that as your source to get back into heaven it's only one source in heaven it's the person of the tree of life jesus christ and he has done it you are righteous forever okay so use this one you're not moving up and down you know in your holiness someone's been a minister for 60 years and love god and the person has been saved today are still addicted to drugs and still hates their mum they're both here because they're both christ if i put it in a metaphor let's say you're here completely you've had the worst most horrible life and now you're a very horrible bitter person angry destructive person okay and or that you're here and now uh you are had a great life you have loving parents and now you partake in society and gives the poor okay okay that puts you here your actions are irrelevant it's your new nature okay so you read especially the writings of paul his books start with this is who you are you'll be raised and seated in heavenly places you're a new creation you're born again okay you're all these amazing things you're in heaven you're one spirit with jesus christ you're one spirit with him forever he says seeing that your one spirit with christ and you've never done this before this is how you should behave you've never done it before it starts framing it up for you okay people the ones who are christ don't kill animals or drink blood or sleep with their mother-in-law okay this is how this is what he's dealing with you've got to stop these things he says because of who you are this is how you behave okay the church teaches if you do these things if you behave you'll be like christ the bible says you are like christ since you're like christ this is how you behave this is how a son of god operates on the earth you've never done it before but it's not a long process paul's like you should all be teachers by now or the right hebrews whoever that is you shall be teachers by now the five-fold gifting is build you to the fullness of the statue of christ in your lifetime and that's what that early church was doing you had their gospel right you're born again one john so john the beloved is talking to his writing a letter to his church he's saying hey don't worry about that day when you see the god don't worry about that day have confidence on that day because as he is so you're now on the earth look at your lives you're walking in the force of the statue of christ your love look at you your love and that's what the church used to do because the gospel is the power of salvation nothing else not spiritual warfare not soul healing not counseling not miracles not the baptism in the spirit not good theology and they're all good things they're all good things sometimes very appropriate but they're not the power to salvation salvation is bringing this reality into the earth it's bringing kingdom heaven to earth so when you receive christ your spirit done your spirit if a man be in christ one corinthians 6 he is one spirit of the lord you're one spirit okay you and christ are one it's done you know what's going to happen to your spirit man when you die if you die nothing nothing's gonna happen it's maxed out it's 100 righteous you are at peak righteousness there's nothing more you can do you can't add to it you can't take from it this is your situation forever because christ has made this made you this now so so you bring salvation your spirit's good when your soul to be good and your body to be good what you're doing is bringing this reality into your soul and how do you do that by hearing a word like now you're hearing a word you believe it this truth comes in okay i'm here my church has taught taught me there's no such thing as healing now i hear somebody preach he shows me from the scriptures that healing's for today it's just words blah blah blah blah blah blah because it comes from god the seed seed goes in has all the capacity and power to believe in it and grow to maturity in that word in that area so healing it goes into me but some miracle it changes the structure that i am it changes my beliefs i didn't believe it i heard something now i do believe it okay so before because god overrides your free will so here's healing trying to get in like just trying to trying to get him you can't get in because this is healing this beautiful sound ah angels and he's like god wouldn't do that for me man two different sounds can't can't get in okay i can't go through here and then you hear a word god does heal he has healed and then all the stuff which is here just comes in that's in your soul you've got two-thirds majority okay if we soul it goes into your body yeah by believing believing this thing that you already are everything you need for life and godliness being like god has past tense being given the past tense to you that's the gospel when you receive christ okay if christ if everything's made through him before him and by him okay and he's glorified and you receive that being in you you become one with that you have everything you need you don't need more whatever you need on the earth you've got the guy that made the earth okay you've got this is all may have logos or have you believe that you've got logos you've got the word he's in you okay i went down here asking god god give me logos give me a manifestation of your word into this creation that god's saying no you do it how by receiving a word receiving a word that you haven't already and what we're doing is moving from this church to this church to this church to the church of heaven the cloud witnesses the ecclesia the razor seed and how many places church and you're already part of it you have to die to become part of that church you died with christ his death is accredited to you and raises you again here forever if your body stopped now you'll realize you're always part of this church if you want anyone tell me this is the gospel i'm not talking about advanced christianity you know the advanced diploma course of christianity this is day one this is your salvation and it's what needs to be framed up for you not this or this or this this is framed up for you you're born again in heaven you are in heaven right now seated in that chair and some pastors say you have a need the answer is sitting in your chair because the kingdom is in you he has given you everything you need for life and godliness he has blessed you with every spiritual blessing there's no more blessing he can actually give you what you're asking for is giving it to you and surrendering to that fact so you can grow up and start taking responsibility for the earth responsibility for creation the highest heaven is given to god but the earth is given to man we know this we all believe that first adam god said here go govern the earth we believe that we can't believe it for ourselves we believe it for him we know we're from him we're now we're now born again better version of him you won't believe the very basic thing he was told to do go and govern the earth make it as you want it adam named the animals that was his job god didn't name the animals in naming something you give it its character so you see a a giraffe you think wow what a crazy animal well done god well yes and well done adam why is a giraffe giraffey why does it giraffe because adam giraffed it he spoke it because he knew who he was yeah we've lost that and we regained that identity jesus death has qualified us for this and all we're doing is knowing and remembering or believing what jesus has done for us is beyond our god saying i'm gonna do something new for you if i told you wouldn't believe it okay we still don't believe it and it's expressed for us we're born again life-giving spirits and we give life so back to the sermon on the mount jesus is saying things like if you do these things you'll be like your father in heaven who sends rain on the good and the evil the just and the unjust that's what your father is like that's your kingdom is like which things is he saying or blessing your enemies praying for those who persecute you wow that's a big standard to live up to when will i ever become that person i've got good news you are that person your core nature is to forgive your enemies your core nature is to bless those who persecute you your core nature your true nature sitting there at rest already is the desire to send rain on good people and evil evil people to bless unjust people and just people that's what your father does you look like him you received his nature forgiveness is your nature you're a forgiving machine that's what you do the new testament calls god the god that justifies the wicked that's what you do at the cost of your life your time your money your expenses your emotions your reputation you lay it down to give people the opportunity to receive a good word that's what the father did free choice there's two trees in the forest free choice his salvation free will choice but god at great cost to himself his name his time his reputation a great pain to himself made a way to give you the ability to make a free choice to accept he's a good father that's what we do okay we're not doormats we're not jesus wasn't a doormat he had no ability he had no concerns about expressing himself he was very good at selling boundaries okay he's quite you've crossed the boundary there uh he was very good at starting fights it was no fight he started the fight like he's very good in confrontation okay don't have a wrong idea of jesus but he was allowed to do these things he laid his life down for these people he loved them he loved these people because he loved them because he was because he can die for them then he could govern them and speak very directly to them yeah if we love this people we love this planet we love this earth if we can lay our life down for it if we call out their goodness because the righteousness which is theirs before the foundation of the world then we can govern it because we don't do that we're not living from here and it puts our consciousness outside there because we know if we go into here we have to forgive everyone we have to bless those who curse us okay and so we live out here and then all our worship and our sounds and our prayer and our theology becomes an outside the curtain worship thing okay i don't want to um walk people i don't want to become like christ and walk people into that maturity so i pray for revival god do something sovereign we're outside the curtain heaven come down heaven come down that's being down here that's like heaven come down we're not here because you're praying for a bible which makes you spiritual so you're probably here we're still saying heaven come down heaven come down send the miracle do something and god's saying i have given you everything you need for life and godliness lord bless me bless this bless that i've already given you every spiritual blessing it's yours to administer because only the minister of the kingdom and the son of the kingdom administers the kingdom and that is to be good to the evil people okay so if you look at the facebook threads of christians and churches for the last 12 months in the usa just think about that do you think we're sending reign on the good and the evil that just the unjust will we a church that justifies the ungodly we laying down our lives to give people the opportunity to choose a good father or are we calling out people's sins holding their sins against them when jesus our model came to earth not holding men's sins against them is that uh um obscure verse john 3 16. might want to look it up not holding men since against them yeah good news to all men so the question is why can't we use all this cool stuff because i'm not using it in the same way heaven would use it we're ambassadors okay ambassadors for god if you're the ambassador for the usa to haiti okay if you go to haiti and the power goes out in haiti does your power go out at the u.s embassy no you're you're set if the haiti economy crashes does your economy crash no you're set if you that you need a car for your job who pays for the car you now the u.s pays for the car you want to put on a party for 20 000 people for the u.s you didn't pay for it u.s pays for it okay but you have to say what the us is saying you're the ambassador for the us so if you have a different opinion what the us has and you express that different opinion you're no longer the ambassador yeah and you can't use the embassy's stuff we're not being an ambassador for heaven we're using the knowledge of good and evil okay we see ourselves as here and we see the democrats here and we see chuck schumer here and this is what we see and we think wow look at us going the right speed but that's the difference between you've got to use a good knowledge of good and evil seriously being here and here i think hey look at us look at those terrible people back here we're from a different world a different kingdom and we're bringing the same salvation we received the ungodly was justified the wicked was justified that's what we now do the same salvation we receive we give away we've got forgiven the big debt okay we can't hold small debts against people once you come to this kingdom when we ambassador for this kingdom we operate from here and we do what this embassy is doing because it holds things in its heart it loves and is patient and loved and patient and then finally if the people are unrepentant and it's hurting generations then judgment can come but we want judgment straight up like james and john god jesus they didn't receive the word shall we cool down fire from heaven and jesus says you don't know what spirit you're of a they knew they could that's impressive b they were doing the work of satan that's what we want to do look what these guys did the cross is such a powerful wisdom and work that it fixes up and solves the problems of the victim and the perpetrator does both these people being hurt by these people the cross saves them both it's good news to both of them it's good news to the victim your life's been destroyed by the actions of people the cross can make up for all of that in your lifetime and you did that to that person the cross can make you clean it's overpayment for both because you know victim and perpetrator i guess irrelevant both have become new creations we have this understanding that you know this guy served god his whole life and then at the last minute in his 70s he felt immorality but the devil got one of our best we have his understanding oh the devil got one of our best at the very end this famous preacher yeah we have this concept in our mind we think well a victory for the devil but we won't take when the devil's best we think oh look at this person instead of satan in their whole life now they're dead they're going to get it we don't think how about that person who got saved have we saved one of the devil's best isn't that a victory for us but we know we want to hold their sins against them and to hold their sins against him you can't go to that thinking without doing it to yourself it's a look as a law court okay so i look at this politician and they're doing good and evil and i look at their evil i want to hold that against him and i'm like i go to that courtroom i say hey politician a is doing bad bad bad god asks you that you would judge judge judge and then i'm in this court of knowledge of good and evil they go ah okay we can look into that but chris sing that you're here um oh in the knowledge of good and evil you also have some evil against you we've also done some bad things i put myself here under this law if you are doing a trade with china and there's a contract failure and some money goes missing okay and you're an american it happened in america you can hold that company to account with your american contract in america with the american banks go to the court and say they didn't fulfill their part of the bargain the american court can prosecute them okay you say that you're american with american court but then you go have your own free will no no i'm going to fly to china go to a chinese court with a contract in chinese where the judge is the mayor's son who is the nephew of the person i'm doing business with and i go there and i get my money and it doesn't go well for you even though you you deserve that money well you chose to go to that court if you want to live free from the conscience of sin you need to operate from that place for other people you can remove their sin from all time good news i've been forgiven the big debt well i have i give to you forgive yourself for the old man has gone something new has come you're a new creation never existed before no longer humanly more completely clean new creation the righteousness of christ and that is for every other person we say i wish joe could get saved he'd make a great christian why oh he looks after the poor and he treats his wife well his kids are great he'll make a great christian woody christian is someone who throws their righteousness completely on the finished work of christ and nothing else but we look at his behavior let's say you make a great christian it shows we have no idea what christianity is isn't their words would be great that person make an amazing christian would they they'd accept maybe they're working really hard like that because they don't accept righteousness we don't know who make a good christian only the person who throws the weight of all their righteousness on a promise that god will do that for you has done that for you jesus when he died could not resurrect himself he didn't have the power to do it he had to believe the word of god he had to die believing that god would raise him up he threw everything on the promise okay that's what we've done putting everything on the promise on the nature of another and because that we freely received it it doesn't matter if we are the greatest person on earth or the worst person on earth and there's nothing in here don't be fooled you're here or you're there and the greatest person best behaved person the worst behaved person needs salvation and the best behaved person the worst behavior person when they're saved are the same the righteousness of christ and that's what we bring to these people so i'm going to read this second corinthians 5. i'm going to read from the nasb just because that's the one that came up on google no other reason i'll read from verse 14 here this is a well-known verse a well-known passage this is paul talking to a very naughty church for the love of christ controls us having concluded this that one died for all therefore all died and he died for all was that those who live would no longer live for themselves but for him who died and rose on their behalf okay you've been given everything you need you don't need to lift yourself anymore a good father good kingdom is taking care of you you're an ambassador for another place they're going to pay for everything therefore from now on we recognize no one by the flesh meaning not by any of these things are they a good person are they a bad person we don't recognize anyone by this okay they're either righteous or a target for righteousness therefore from now on we recognize no one by the flesh even though we have known christ by the flesh or as a human being yet now we we know him in this way no longer okay we used to know jesus of nazareth and now we've got jesus the risen glorified christ that's how we know him and that's how we are to know each other risen glorified christ one being not by the flesh not by the presentation not where they're at we're going to call out the righteousness and the glory that i had for the foundation of the world that's what god wants therefore if anyone is in christ this is you anyone anyone this person is a new creation the old things have passed away behold new things have come or all things are made new once you accept christ you're a new creation you're not adam creature you're a spirit creature of heaven when they think like the spirit creature that's accepted and loved as we get every spiritual blessing and happiness for them and heaven wants them to grow up and be exactly like their father same as the way jesus grew up become exactly like his father some translations say what exists now has never existed before because something completely new this new thing is the righteousness of christ now all these things are from god who reconciled us to himself through christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation that's all we're doing reconciling anyone to god good people bad people the person to make a great christian the person who wouldn't make a good christian in our minds any person the people we want punished no no we're reconciling them to god the great victory is that jesus takes their punishment that's the great victory as he did for us now all these things are from god who reconciled us to himself through christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation namely god was in christ reconciling the world to himself not counting their wrongdoings against them oh that's what god was doing god in jesus as he's been whipped tortured having his blood ripped open nailed and laughed at he was not counting their sins against them in fact he was actively asking their sins will be counted against them forgive them lord they know not what they do this is what we are that's the ministry of reconciliation lord forgive them though no no no what they do not lord send the earthquake and put california in the ocean yeah not lord take out that that political party his father they know not what they do they are me and i was saved do not hold their sins against them that's the victory the victory is not they'll get put in orange jumpsuits and get taken to guatana bay that's not the victory we're after the victories are get new heavenly suits live in heaven and their sins are wiped out forever that's the victory for them and their victims that's the victory not counting their wrong doings against them and he has committed to us the word of reconciliation that's what we're doing therefore we are ambassadors for christ so your ambassador for christ you do what he does you say what he says this is difficult i know it's difficult he didn't recognize lack he didn't recognize death it was good to everyone in need that's not the kingdom here's the kingdom i've been caught in adultery here's forgiveness didn't ask why didn't ask how oh you've got a kid that's possessed by a thousand demons didn't ask why didn't ask how just fixed it up now this excess of abundance of resource that you had just fix it up okay if they'll tell people to go sin no more we didn't hold their past sins against them let's fix things up therefore we are ambassadors for christ as though god were making an appeal through us that's it jesus is gone he's not here it's better that i leave but we think it's not better that you leave it's better that you stay if you were here we would win win the cultural war if you were here if we hear we could touch you and you could heal us would make an idol of his presence his gifting but god wants us to become like him so he has to go so we grow up and become him and we do the things we're asking him to do as if god were making an appeal through us we beg you on behalf of christ to be reconciled to god he made him who knew no sin to be sin in our behalf that we might become the righteousness of god in him you're not a christian you're well-behaved you're not lutheran you're not anything else you are the righteous of christ or the righteousness of christ you can walk in and out of the presence of heaven any time you want you're the same frequency is here okay you're the same sound the same light the same shape the same clothes that's where you belong you don't have to get your life right okay if you think your life's right that gets you into there that's the true knowledge of good and evil forget it you just go in on christ alone had a great week and pray for a thousand people had a terrible week and robbed a thousand people both are relevant judgments okay you can walk in you're the righteousness of christ and it's this revelation that changes your behavior the change of behavior for this access is this access that changes your behavior you are the righteous righteous of christ forever forever become one with christ forever it's an amazing free gift and it happened to a person that didn't deserve it you and that's our only message as if god was making the same appeal through us that's what we're telling people to come and join this not coming in enjoying this okay otherwise you make them twice the sons of hell you are because this is demonic thinking this is hellish thinking okay either there or you're here by receiving a word that everything reproduces after its own kind so if you're doing this christianity here that's what you'll make of other people but hey i've left kathleen behind i'm a looter and now i'm going the right speed i'm not lutheran i'm a charismatic now i'm going the right speed it's all nonsense you're not a christian because jesus wasn't a christian jesus wasn't a christian pagans called us christians it's a good name i like it i'm a christian yeah as far as the world is concerned yeah i'm a good i'm a christian okay but i didn't become a christian i changed species my son of god i am what jesus is because christians some christians do this you know and some christians do this and some christians do this okay but all sons of god are good to the good and the evil the just and the unjust all sons of god bring righteousness and what we do what jesus do we stoop down we make people great what jesus did for us all right so we're going to just remember the fact we're in heaven you can just stay seated where you are or stand up do whatever you want and we're going to close our eyes and just know we're the righteousness of christ okay so jesus you are the door the true and living way you stooped down and made us great and we just sit here righteous at rest with no recognition of our good behavior or bad behavior but only the behavior of christ jesus gave us the big debt you're good to all you're good to all we want to be like you we want to be good to all release this judgment lord this yoke this burden of holy judgments against ourselves and others we just take it off our neck this big yoke just take it off be handed to you you can make a good judgment on that we are going to be ambassadors as if god was making his appeal through us as if you were here good news to all men joy to the world we no longer judge what we see or hear we hold things in our heart speak well of them call out their greatness pull out the righteousness that god intended for them before the foundation of the world holy and blames inside forever every person and lord right now we just take the person that we're most angry and frustrated with over the last 12 months whether it's personal or political or something else although we say father forgive us for holding their trespasses against them although what we say is that you have wiped out our sins they'll never be known they're hidden forever and we've go off for free because the word for christ and lord even we're not willing now we're willing to become willing willing to become like you return that person and say lord i was forgiven we ask this person now whether the person we know or a political figure or a media figure whatever made you angry i said lord forgive them lord they know what they do we ask you take this person release the charges against them may they receive a word and believe it and may it be holy and blameless in your sight forever and may we be family forever for millions and billions in eternal years and that's the great victory and for all the victims of the decision making i ask that they too would not become bitter and find salvation in you dad will be exactly like you jesus mature son son whom he's well pleased will be exactly like you receive that nature at rest we hear a word our soul changes we bring it to the earth thank you heaven thank you jesus amen all right amen good [Music] [Music] you
