Reconciliation on the Cross Unites Us With God. Man-Made Religion Divides Us / Jesus Is the Way
Transcript
who’s wrecked in the Holy Spirit
you cannot come into an encounter with
the supernatural ever-living God
and walk away different than when you
first got here
oh my gosh
you know I received a message from a
friend of mine he was a law enforcement
officer like myself and we recently
retired and
and so he sends this message and and it
reads and I don’t know if they have the
uh the clip up there but it says uh
great news
the Archdiocese gave us a dispensation
because St Patrick’s fell on a Friday in
Lent
we can eat meat today
and we don’t go to hell for it
I’m cooking bacon right now and about to
have a meat lover’s omelette
#life is good
I wish I could say that was a joke
but it’s not
we’re going to talk about as we continue
through the book of Ephesians about
man-made Doctrine and the way that it
the way that it unravels the
reconciliation of Christ at the cross
for crucifixion
but I wanted to share this not to make
fun of my friend
but to show that a lot of the world that
claims or believes that they’re
Christians are still locked in to
man-made doctrines
to religious rituals of man
and it’s not knocking down one
denomination over the other I just want
to share that when we go back to Ephesus
as we walk through the second chapter of
Ephesians that we don’t get too Pious
like hashtag oversave what I was back
then
no it’s also today
so if I can pray over this word and
father God hallelujah halleluia thank
you thank you thank you thank you for
last night for our prophetic night thank
you for the the the the the Symmetry and
the seamlessness of ministering in the
Holy Spirit last night Lord thank you
for today Father God we are we honor you
we praise you and every word spoken
every prayer offered always only to
honor you in Jesus name amen
so what is the one thing the one thing
the Lord put on my heart this week and
he knows I’m a simple man because he’s
like don’t do a traditional three-point
sermon like you’re a simple man and
we’re going to keep it to one and I’m
like thank you Jesus for that one point
but reconciliation on the cross unites
us with God
religion of man divides us from God and
from each other
and why is that important to you
because Jesus was crucified to reconcile
you into Unity
and you can’t have peace if your life’s
in pieces
and it’s the one thing that keeps us
together the one thing that brings us
into the hope of unity and that is the
word of the Lord
I love you I respect your feelings
but I I cling to the word of the Lord
and it’s an honor of the word of the
Lord that I ask that we stand together
as the body and let’s read our anchor
scripture from the word of the Lord and
it comes from Ephesians we’re continuing
to walk through books of the Bible where
in Ephesians second chapter uh this is
17 19 and I wanted to use the Amplified
uh Bible version so if we can read as
the family and we’ll begin and he came
and preached the good news of peace to
you Gentiles who were far away and peace
to those Jews who were near for it is
through him that we both have a direct
way of approach in one Spirit to the
father
so then you are no longer strangers and
Aliens Outsiders without rights of
citizenship but you are fellow citizens
with the Saints God’s people and are
members of God’s household
amen thank you Jesus
you know we keep talking about that one
Spirit the one Spirit the one Spirit The
Same Spirit that hovered over the
Darkness at the beginning of Creation
The Same Spirit that fell Upon Jesus
when he rose from the water after water
baptism and was baptized with the power
of the Holy Spirit the same holy spirit
that you received when you receive Jesus
Christ the same 100 righteousness of God
that lives in you right now the same
holy spirit that Ephesians 1 tells you
when you’ve received the Holy Spirit you
were sealed by the Holy Spirit you don’t
leak the god in you does it leak you’re
not like an old radiator on a favorite
jeep that Terry’s trying to reconstruct
it doesn’t leak the Holy Spirit has you
sealed and your righteousness comes of
the righteousness of God the 100
righteousness of God and and because of
that righteousness We Are One
Jews Gentile my friends denomination and
our relational Body of Christ one Spirit
but that only comes through
reconciliation you see reconciliation
signaled the end of estrangement that
was caused by the original sin in the
garden
like you think about it when Adam and
Eve they were just rocking and rolling
enjoying life the way it was designed
designed to be to be lived but sin
corrupted that
and it was because of that sin that God
had to send his son Jesus Christ to be
to be crucified to be brutally murdered
now there’s been a lot of people
murdered for sin
but Jesus the only one that that died
for your sin and returned to give you
life Everlasting
that’s reconciliation reconciliation
brings God and Humanity back into unity
and Harmony and agreement
and as we sit here and we’re like oh
that’s good I like unity and agreement
and harmony
but I want to ask you
like are we really in unity Harmony in
agreement with each other
and I’m not saying there’s some great
schism at five Stones Church that all we
need to do some stitching some sutrin
I’m talking about in the body of Christ
do we really treat each other
do we really treat this body
as the body to become the bride do we
treat one another with respect and honor
and love
it doesn’t mean you have to agree with
what everybody says we heard last week a
group of us men went up to Karis Bible
College Andrew Wommack in Colorado and
the speaker said
um cowards avoid conflict
cowards avoid conflict and I think we
see that a lot in the world in the woke
world today it doesn’t mean we’ve got to
be like Don Quixote running chasing
windmills but when the Lord gives you a
word and says stand firm the Lord wants
you to stand firm he wants you to stand
firm for the word of the Lord he doesn’t
want you to stay and firm for your
personal opinion he wants you to stand
for him for the uh for the word
and it’s because of reconciliation that
we can stand firm reconciliation it
brings it brings to um reconciliation
between humanity and God it also when
when Paul’s teaching at the church in
Ephesus he’s speaking specifically to
the Gentiles and he’s saying that
reconciliation the crucifixion of Jesus
brings reconciliation between the Jews
and the Gentiles
and it’s like well they should be
reconciled but you see it’s not always
that easy because when you’re taking
pride in getting the dispensation from
the Archdiocese because St Patrick’s Day
falls on a Friday and you get to cook
bacon and it’s a good day then you
realize that the Schism between the Jews
and the Gentiles or this group in that
group has not really been reconciled
to Unity agreement
you know Ephesians 2 14 16 tells us
for Christ himself has brought peace to
us
he United Jews and Gentiles into one
people when in his own body on the cross
he broke down the wall of hostility that
separated us
he did this by ending the system of law
with its Commandments and regulations
he made peace between the Jews and the
Gentiles by creating in himself one new
people from two groups
together as one body Christ reconciled
both groups to God
by means of his death on the cross
and our hostility towards each other was
put to death you know this almost sounds
like an Easter Sunday sermon
but let me tell you every Sunday message
should be an Easter Sunday sermon
you don’t slot you don’t save you don’t
Reserve you don’t dedicate you don’t
dictate the gospel message to one Sunday
a year
yeah
reconciliation is God’s gift
it’s a gift
you’ve got to receive that gift
you don’t receive reconciliation through
the cross because of your family’s name
because the amount of money in your bank
account because of your attendance in a
local church because of the likes you
get on Facebook this is a gift that
you’ve got to receive
and nobody can force you to do it
nobody can force you to do it so I want
to encourage you and we’re going to take
care of this if you’ve not received
Jesus Christ as your savior and Lord
we’re going to take care of this at the
end of this service we have learned to
place a demand on the Holy Spirit we are
placing a demand and expectation on this
altar at the end of service when we
alter call
we are placing a demand we know that the
holy spirit is moving he’s ready to move
he’s anxious to move he’s willing to
move he’s been starting to move since
the Earth was even before the
foundations of the earth he has been in
a slow simmer waiting to boil and I’m
telling you right now when we finish
this service regardless of how I
delivered God’s word this is gonna this
is gonna boil over
I want you to set your hearts with an
expectation for a true transformational
encounter with the Holy Spirit
listen
unless you’ve received Jesus as your
savior and Lord
there’s no other way
like my friend thinks because he gets to
eat meat today or Friday and he’s not
going to hell that he’s going to heaven
it’s not an inverse relationship well I
don’t do this so that means I do get
that that ain’t it there’s one way to
heaven there’s one way to the father
Jesus tells us in John 14 6 Jesus told
like Jesus told them this isn’t Scott’s
opinion this isn’t our teacher Byron’s
lesson this is Jesus talking
I am the way I am the truth I am the
life no one can come to the father
except through me
let me ask you a question and be honest
do you believe the word of the Lord is
true
do you believe the word of the Lord is
reflected in the Bible
so you’re going to say that you believe
from the very beginning to the very end
of every word in between in the Bible
I want you to understand that the
Bible’s not a salad bar it’s not
something that you can pick and choose
what you feel like chewing on that day
and spitting out what you don’t so when
Jesus Christ says in John 14 I am the
only way
he’s not playing games with y’all
he loves us so much he makes it simple
when Leah started buying furniture when
we first got married from Ikea and like
we’re gonna save a little money we’re
gonna go to Ikea and I’m looking at the
instructions I’m like there’s got to be
another way
and there was nails and super glue and
those gorilla hang hooks but this ain’t
Kevin
there’s one way
there’s one way
and you know Paul continues in Ephesians
and he’s encouraging the church in
Ephesus to remember the Gentiles like
y’all
my boys and all and I want you to
remember I want you to remember what
life was like before Jesus I want you to
remember what it was like before the
reconciliation
in Ephesians 2 11 12 he tells them
therefore remember that previously you
the Gentiles In the Flesh who were
called uncircumcision by the so-called I
love that air quotes Paul circumcision
which is performed in the flesh by human
hands remember that you were at that
time separate from Christ excluded from
the people of Israel strangers to the
covenants of the promise having no hope
and without God in the world
I mean like that’s serious when we’re
talking about the covenants you know
he’s talking about the Mosaic Covenant
you go to Deuteronomy 28 and you read
about the blessings
and the curses and you know then when
they’re under the law which is Paul’s
trying to tell them you’ve been freed
from the law like my friend in Houston
you can have bacon any time you want
if your cholesterol says that it can’t
but you’re not bound to the law you’re
not bound to the law and this is what
Jesus is trying to encourage them
if you go and you read Deuteronomy 28
it’s like oh I can dig be in the head
never the tail I love being on top and
never the boss like this is good I can
dig some of this
but you go up a little bit and you see
what the conditions are
if you follow
every command
every word
everything
if anybody’s ever been placed in
captivity
spiritual physical captivity bondage
imprisoned and chained you know the only
way to get through that situation is you
do every single thing somebody else has
told you to do
there’s no freedom of the body and
physical captivity
there’s freedom in the spirit because of
the reconciliation of Jesus Christ so
Paul is encouraging the Ephesians hey
y’all the Gentiles remember
what life was like not to harp on it but
you can never really know the value of
what you’ve gained unless you know the
despair of when you were lost
you know it’s amazing you know who helps
you remember
like how many wives are just like
seriously I have told you 10 times what
to do
why can’t you remember simple
instructions
I’m like well girl say it another 10 and
maybe it’ll sink in
so then Leah goes she goes you ever
heard of John 14 26.
I’m like well let me look it up in my
Bible out
well guess who helps us to remember but
the helper the Holy Spirit whom the
father will send in my name will teach
you all things and bring you to remember
it’s all things that I said to you yes
the holy spirit that is within you that
is sealed within you that will never
ever leave you you’ve got your body I
can see your body you’ve got your your
soul which is your emotions your
personality your memories
I can see by the Expressions on faces
where your soul and your memories and
your feelings are
it
spirit
is the spirit of God
like I don’t care how jacked up you are
I don’t care how out of shape you are I
don’t care how broke you are I don’t
care how sleepy you are
one-third of you
one third of you is 100 percent
perfection
because it’s the Holy Spirit living
inside of you the second you receive
Jesus Christ as your savior you receive
the indwelling of the Holy Spirit
and we’ve been showing this in healing
and signs and wonders that that your
spirit don’t have to get no more holy
because Jesus is perfect holy spirit is
100 righteous holy
if you’ve received Jesus as your savior
I want you to walk in that confidence
that you are 100 righteous the
righteousness of God
you know
I put a note here and said if we have
time and the only time is God’s time and
what he’s telling me is if you’ve
received the Holy Spirit
and you had this euphoric feeling when
you came to Christ and since then it’s
like well I don’t feel I don’t feel good
anymore be honest with you it kind of
stinks right now so what’s all this God
stuff about I want to let you know
you’re relying on your soul you’re
relying on your feelings I want to let
you know that if you receive Jesus
Christ as your savior and Lord that Holy
Spirit don’t leak
that’s what Ephesians 1 tells us you’re
sealed by the Holy Spirit I want to
encourage you to start listening and
that when we have an altar call this is
part of the expectation the demand that
we’re placing on the holy spirit is if
you’ve not heard from the holy spirit in
a long time if you’ve been in a dry
season or you said you know I’ve
received God lord as my savior Jesus
says my savior but I don’t know how to
hear the voice I don’t know if it’s me
or the world or just my imagination I
want you to come up here when we when we
finish this message and we’re going to
pray for you and if you’ve received the
Holy Spirit and you’ve not been baptized
in the Holy Spirit we’re going to take
care of that too
we’re going to take care of that too
because it’s one thing to be
Spirit-filled
it’s another thing to be Spirit fueled
like it’s cool to have a Lamborghini in
your driveway
but if you ain’t got no gas you ain’t
going nowhere
the baptism of the holy spirit is what
ignites that vehicle and makes it run
and make it go Paul continues and he’s
talking about labels labels that divide
and labels that Define and Ephesians 2
11.
remember that your previously the
Gentiles In the Flesh who were called
uncircumcision by the so-called
circumcision which is performed by the
flesh what Paul’s doing he’s like look I
know the Jews were calling y’all
uncircumcised
like he’s they’re placing labels on
y’all they felt the fact that they had
been circumcised because of the Mosaic
Covenant they felt that they were better
but after Jesus came in the
reconciliation of the Cross everybody
was brought into one
like when you think about like back then
these dudes are fighting over foreskin
like how crazy is that you want to
battle for land or money or whatever but
they fighting over foreskin and Leah’s
like I don’t want you to say that this
morning because it’s too close to
breakfast and it’s right before lunch
but this is the word of the Lord and
this is what they’re fighting over these
are the doctrines of man
and so what’s happening is they’re
putting labels on each other you got
Jews you got Gentiles they were by
diabolically opposed to one another but
because of the crucifixion and the
reconciliation through the cross Jesus
died to bring them together Jesus didn’t
die so they could continue making
levitical laws and and traditions
but did we find
we find they’re still making labels
I want to tell you guys physical
circumcision doesn’t save you laws of
man doesn’t save you
special dispensations because St
Patrick’s Day fell on a Friday doesn’t
save you
too much bacon might kill you
only spiritual circumcision leads to
leads to Salvation
and look we’re talking about labels
don’t label yourself
don’t label yourself this woke World
Loves putting labels on people they
throw labels out there like like woke
and lgbtq and transgender and and you’re
dumb and you’re fat and you’re slow and
you’re short and you’re old and you’re
this and then that but let me tell you
something those labels they’re nothing
you think about a little sticker on the
backup seat of a of a car bumper that’s
all it is
you know when this when the dragon when
the dragons seduced Eve in the garden
what did he say it was just a label
did God really say
like where’s the power in that it’s a
weak woke suggestion but what do we do
oh like like if you got a Ford outside
and I put a bumper sticker it says
Lamborghini listen you might chuckle you
might be mad because I put a sticker on
your bumper but you know that don’t make
that Florida Lamborghini because the
woke world is throwing labels at you it
don’t mean you are what you are unless
you receive that label as what you are I
want you to stop giving yourself false
labels I want you to start walking and
the power and the Dominion and the
authority that God’s giving you and what
else I want you to stop doing stop
saying I’m a sinner I’m a sinner because
I’m going to tell you what that’s what
the woke World wants you to do
you were a sinner and you’ve received
Jesus Christ you’re no longer a sinner
but let me tell you put that out on
Facebook this afternoon I’m not a sinner
let me tell you what you better be ready
for some some harsh comments
listen for me to say for you to say I’m
a sinner that’s like saying I’m an
honest Thief
I’m a Faithfully married Bachelor I’m a
sober drunk
I’m a lively corpse
do you see how stupid that is
but we let the woke world even the
religious world
the religious the ones we want to ah
braid a rope and flip tables we let them
back us down well maybe I am a sinner I
mean I do sin yeah but you got the 100
righteous of the Holy Spirit living
inside of you when you’ve receive Jesus
Christ you sin you’re forgiven
stop putting those labels on yourself
stop calling yourself I’m an addict I’m
a victim I’m going to hell like you fill
in the blank what labels are you
affixing to yourself I am this
I am that
you know what you are man if I could
give y’all some bumper stickers my
favorite would be like honk for Jesus
that’d be number one but listen your
bumper sticker your Supernatural
spiritual bumper sticker that should be
affixed on your on yourself is I am
forgiven
I am saved
I am redeemed I am a child of God
listen
the woke world all they got all the
devil God
is suggestion
and I don’t even say the power of
suggestion because the only Power in
that suggestion is the power you allow
that power to have over your life
is the power you allowed over your life
I mean when you think about God God
created everything with the spoken word
then God gave us dominion and said be
fruitful and multiply
and God gives us the power of the spoken
word
you see the woke world the religious
world
oh that’s that name and a claim it stab
it and grab it you know this and that
it’s like listen y’all go and fight over
your foreskin
we’re going to celebrate the Victory and
the freedom and the authority and the
Dominion and the power and the identity
and the purpose and the function and
everything that comes with the gift of
Salvation remember when Jesus died for
you on the cross it’s not a get out of
hell free card
it’s not only a get out of hell free
card but God gives you the the power of
Salvation through the gift of Salvation
it’s a package the atonement package is
a package but what we do is we take that
one thing well when I die I’m not going
to hell and we stick in our pocket and
we walk around defeated through life
like Byron says we’re just we’re just
beating ourselves on the back oh what
was me oh woe was me I’m a sinner woe is
me
and you beat yourself with this cat of
Nine Tails only hit yourself 39 times
because the religious World said what 40
will kill you
stop letting the woke world stop letting
the religious the religiosity
institutionalize religion dictate who
you are in Christ
we’ve got so much freedom I always think
about that the elephant the circus
elephant with the little rope on his on
his ankle what if it’s an ankle that
guy’s got so much power and authority
but if you only recognized his identity
if he only knew what it meant
to be free it’s just a swipe foot of a I
think it’s called a a foot I don’t know
but that’s what we do y’all we tether
ourselves with alfredo broken rope to a
napio rusted peg in the ground and we
just stand there
next to sinner next to Loser next to
nothing next to attic next to criminal
next to convict next to you know what
your criminal record says you know what
the world says do you know what your
credit score is
and you got the nerve to walk into the
house of God
yeah I do
yes I do because I have the abundance of
my father had the authority of my father
my slate has been wiped clean thank you
to the father
listen don’t let nobody put false bumper
stickers on your car on your spiritual
vehicle
it’s yours God gave it to you God Gave
You Freedom don’t get locked in on these
on these man-made rules don’t get locked
in on doctrines of man
stick to the word of the Lord stick to
the word of the Lord
listen the one thing the only thing that
matters is reconciliation
the crucifixion of Jesus Christ provides
the reconciliation
it wasn’t circumcision it wasn’t the 16
and 13 613 levitical laws
it wasn’t any of that stuff
it was Jesus Christ
and you’ve got power and you’ve got
Authority and you’ve got identity
because of that reconciliation
like God’s good like you all God like
which of us that are parents like when
our kids running and they’re in a race
and you like trip them
laughs
maybe some of y’all because I know some
of y’all in your kids but look that
ain’t God
that’s not God God’s Our Father
and if you believe the word of the Lord
and you believe that the Bible reflects
the the word of the Lord then you read
that word of the Lord and what does it
tell you
God loves you
God loves you what it tells you is that
you’ve got identity you’ve got Authority
in Jesus Christ don’t let nobody tell
you who you are go to the word and find
out who you are
