"Some Sermonettes"

Play again this time about the different kinds of preaching that people do and I gave you a few examples and I like to quickly one more time and and talk about it quickly. We're people they take the scripture and they if you will expose what the scripture is saying the what the meaning is of what you just read many times did bringing the Greek and sometimes the Hebrew if if that's appropriate and what is the scripture saying another group? Some groups are expository and that's it. If you go to the church, I appreciate other wise like topical or something. They don't even accept it. That's not really preaching. That is not true. Okay. Now you have another kid that goes first by verse? If You Don't Preach verse-by-verse, you're not really preaching you're not me and sharing the truth if you don't want to hear from you very much so that is another group we went to a conference and there's nothing wrong with the conference and Conference and

Make photo. Don't play that that's just their way of thinking but that's not the only way of preaching. Then either expository or goodbye verse you can add to that application so that when you explain to the people that you're preaching to what the verse means that now you try to apply it to the lives because it doesn't make a lot of sense for the people to know. What a skip to means if they don't know how to apply to the life. You know husbands love your wife as Christ loved the church. But how did you do that? Well, we need to apply. So then you find a ways of making application topical that is to say that somebody has a topic that they want to talk about. Let us say forgiveness and then it goes to the scriptures to find out what the scriptures have to say about forgiveness rarely. Do they have enough time in one sermon to cover all that is skip this ass about a given topic so that you are honest with your audience and just tell them that this is what you're going to share this morning. There's a whole lot more to to share about the subject. So and then you have a combination. I'm not married to any of these systems are these ways of doing it? I just do what I feel like the Lord wants me to do if it's topical. I don't know if it's expository. That's what I do. Sometimes we go through a book and gift application. So people can apply the truth of what God is saying they can apply to their lives which is usually important usually important. So today we'll go sort of topical and I will do a number of sermonettes. That's a new one for you.

Maybe there is some some reputation as always this it's hard to talk about Jesus and not talk about that is the Lord no matter how often you talk about Jesus, you know these things seem to come up because that's who he is. And I told there is other Arenas are areas that they need to come up often and it should come up often because we should know those things and apply them to our lives because it's my experience that when somebody hits a message one time.

pretty much that forgot it unless you give them some homework to do. An assignment husbands love your wife as Christ loved the church. This is how you do that go do it. Okay, if they do it all week long if they don't do it they may not Remember to Samoa Samoa last week.

I'm outside a medical.

it is a wonderful subject that Messianic medical because it helps you understand what is going on in that it really

in a real way doesn't add a lot of spiritual maturity to you. It just helps to understand what was going on as your typically I I Don't Preach that weigh typically even though I want to understand the text but technically I'm more of a an application server a guy so so today I'd like to talk about a few things and don't know grief so obviously we don't have time to cover the whole the whole thing but just talked about it briefly because I want to accentuate it one more time because I think this and these are not the only ones but some of these things are very important for a Victorious Christian Life and where I'm coming from as a pastor. It is with me about you having a Victorious Life. That you can live a Christian Life that matters for the kingdom That Matters to Jesus that matters when you have difficulty that matters even in death. So that is what I want my life to be like that. It matters. It makes a difference in difficulty and I've had plenty of them look up at the some of the other people in other parts of the world or in death. I want my desk to come for the kingdom.

We'll talk a little bit about.

Talking you've talked about that talking about stewardship worship place in God also the beauty that God values and for forgiveness not necessarily in that order. I'll just pick and choose as I go. I have already picked and chosen, but I may not even stick to my picking and choosing the first thing that I like for us to talk about. It's about talking. how To use or not to use the term our mouths the scriptures have a ton to say about that. A ton you don't stop and think about it because maybe don't stop and think about it. But what time does the Book of James divorce pretty much the third chapter 2 all of the church concerning the tongue the mouth how to talk Paul writes a lot about talking.

We have learned about Ephesians 4:29 that says let no corrupt communication proceed on remote with that which is good to the use of edifying grace to the people The Book of Proverbs have to say about the Old Testament about witness the way you are going to I'm going to win this about what he did. I'm using my mouth to speak about what he did or didn't do. What is the weather in a court of law or whether it's just in the way of her testimony? AutoZone on so there's a lot to be said about that and I want to just bought out a couple of things and it's that we don't have time to do expository and detail too much. How do I say I want to hear James the third chapter 1 through can you put one also?

I despise this for we all stumble in many things. Is James Wright I think James is right. This is James. Yes. She know, you know when somebody has an ouchie. I like to put her out to them but nothing and judgmental way. I like to put it out to them so we can get them out of it and we can start doing better. So the same way when I'm teaching the scriptures the scriptures are pretty much. You know at a very high bar. Yes, and you say are you don't say it but maybe someone would say I don't know the holy spirit with without any more gymnastics. If you're just yield to the Holy Spirit, he will take you there, but I don't want you to get discouraged because you're here and you're in the scriptures about here. No, I want to be and I want to encourage you because God wants you here and you think you hear if you just submit yourself and you to the power of God who will get you there. And this is not difficult for God.

so we all stomach if anyone does not stumble and word of your mouth if you don't stumble and using your mouth. He is a perfect the word perfect resume Ferguson send this profession that were perfect usually means mature body is booked in the Lord when they use their mouth for the edification of other people and to be grace to the hearers. So if it doesn't stumble and miles is a mature man able also to Bridle the whole body. Thought you might not have thought about this. dead by be mature and the way you use your mouth. You can tell your buddy. You can have control over what your body is going to do.

They do not do it in the same text. Is that what it says?

So that is so much to me because so few people that I know. control their body

no condemnation

What am I home country? the food that I like

Oh my goodness. It is so good and at home didn't want you to just go one time. They like to go to Times just to show that is good.

I was going to tell you story but I don't I don't take too much time. And then you have the different juices the fruits that they make drinks out of.

So you eating your drinking and you don't have a lot of exercise because your ministering so you go pee somewhere and then they say that again. So so it is difficult animation, but he says that if you can control your mouth you can control your body.

Ain't just to make sure that we don't misunderstand it. He gets his examples. he goes on to say any reported deaths in horse's mouth that they may or bears and return their whole body is giving is making a point. We put a small bit in a horse's mouth.

With that bed. I got to control his whole body that horse if he wanted to he could just kick me off of himself. I mean, I mean but just a bid I control him I go there he goes there I go there he goes that I go down. He stops.

grab it I got to control his whole body. James is making the point that if we can control this thing this tongue. Then we get to control the whole body as well. That's the parties making with the bid on a horse. Example verse for although they are so large and are driven by Fierce winds. They are turned by a very small Rudder wherever the Pilot's desires. So you have a ship.

You go like this or you go like this with it and the captain by little Rudder. He controls the whole ship and he gets to tell me what it's going. Right. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah the captain it's going and the ship goes that he is making the point that if you control your mouth you can tell you what it's going to go.

I know. I think about what James to say over here. You think he's thinking about okay. It's all about the tongue which it effects. then he goes on to say was sorry.

The third one is the first five.

my control in your mouth you actually even got to control your body, but it is more than that when you speak rightly with your mouth. You will be a blessing to many many many people wrongly with your mouth.

I don't want to say it. Ugly name or whatever. I just say. You're not a blessing. I just look at my notes and see what else we have over there concerning concerning talkin.

The second point is the beauty that God values and will be in 1st Peter the beauty to get that card values. I told you before that growing up.

My father love classical music, I love classical music. You can help grow up with that seem to get that you got to love it and Hit the quad. That classical music was the only music that was music that ass was nice.

So that was

that was his what he thought was beautiful. But other people like other kinds of music anything that is beautiful people like different kinds of music. I think there's a lot of beautiful music grateful. Somebody loves somebody else knows. They don't think it's beautiful. So you'll be holding you for your beautiful.

Rivers waterfalls and valleys You name it all kinds of the car? So beautiful so good. People app but what I think is beautiful

Is not as important as what God thinks is beautiful.

And when God decides that something is beautiful. That's what I want to do. Because I bring pleasure to my father. Just like I want to bring pleasure to my father and listen with him to classical music for hours. Mozart Beethoven and up Corral you name it?

listen

some of it I like someone like really well. But I can take a leave, but just to please my father my walk with Christ that I might. Please the father. for the beauty of my walk What does it look like the third chapter? And we looking at for Speed of the church? I'm looking at versus Sonny with this what we not going to spend a lot of time at the first one, but I just want to get there the wind up the wind have to go to the lady versus Christmas. I'm not going to go that although I'd like to but because it has to be clarified wife submitting to submitting to the weather be like that without a word maybe one by the conduct of their wife the Pointe at Peters making over here. Hey why you don't always have to do a lot of talking. About Jesus if your husband is an unbeliever.

Why don't you show him what you read? Is so much better than telling him over there to talk like that to me stuff. So much is accomplished as he resist you even more. Finishing over here better without too much talk. He might be one to Jesus because when you see it. You can tonight. Right in front of you. It's right in front of you. He goes on to say that.

When they observe your Chase conduct a company by observing. They see it. It's visible is recognizable. They see it with their own eyes in front of them. What more do you need? Jesus like I said, we don't have a lot of time I like you know.

the middle sermons do not let your adornment be merely outward arranging the hair wearing gold or putting on fine apparel. Can you give me a phone and I go back to 3 if it ain't got a beauty of a gentle and quiet Spirit, which is very precious in the sight of God. Got to go back to verse 3, please.

be merely outward

this is one of those abused misused verses in the scriptures. Because some people use this and saying that a woman should not have makeup. AR jewelry

Can you going to take a shower? Is that okay?

This is my voice.

I wanted to say can you imagine that when a woman becomes a Christian? No, she's just look like whatever she got to take care of herself anymore. And I think don't you? Christian woman you want to be president? If I'm going to have to go overboard, what's up, you want to be presentable?

You got to have any rings to get have a ending in Gold make it to have nice stuff through over here as he is saying Christian women. This is what about young people I want I want to know about is also. B racing this is a word that gives it away. The letter word that merely Euro you can have Albert Beauty. Yes. would love to just be mad dogs would like

because people say that is the beauty that God values that Edward Beauty and by the way, my dear brothers and sisters before I forget it's okay. Let's talk about women over here, but the same thing is true about that not about the makeup.

What about your inner beauty and strength is also valuable to God?

so

he is saying over here that

as a Christian woman

if all your beauty is all good. You're missing the boat.

You're a real Beauty.

Auburn Beauty Istanbul it fades away

I know that for a fact. I don't call myself beautiful, but I was with my handsome when I was 18 or 19 years old.

Chucky movies

My wife would be a note. Let me let me see if I can get my car someplace.

A few years ago. It was my birthday and she says it is.

amazing that

at such a situation can be still so handsome.

I really appreciate it at but what it sounded a little bit better if she would have said. I thank God that you had such an he still amazingly handsome.

I know what you meant. Why you know someone's hard they can say thanks for the mouth that don't mean I mean otherwise, but because you know

I know exactly what you're saying. So that's so Raymond. If all your beauty is on the outside you missed the boat. You got half Beauty, but not merely out with you did not just out of beauty because to God the inner beauty is what counts I'll talk to you about some practical things that the ultra beauty is temporal its face. You have to work at it.

Buck Allen

And that's what I'm saying.

So because God looks on the inside let your real Beauty Beyond the inside gentleman Brothers, let your restraint and attraction be on the inside to God. Because girl you are beautiful face you in with beauty becomes more and more beautiful as you get more mature in the Lord and learn to yield to him for him to make you in the image of Jesus.

That special Beauty means so much to the father. The beauty that God values where do we go from here?

Amen. Hey, that's pretty good.

Survivalist over your outer beauty you can buy it and we're Beauty money can't buy it outer beauty. You have to work at it with beauty. God makes it happen that you yield Ultra Beauty Fades away and what beauty gets more beautiful from glory to glory beauty is unpredictable. And what beauty is steady. I got us to impress ever Beauty great price to God. God values it. okay, let me see if I'm

Okay, I have a little note to worship worship.

I changed my mind. Let's let's talk about stewardship. Stewardship. Wow

Last week I told you that.

when I

ask the church for money. I don't usually ask for money for our church. It is maybe a shortcoming on my part. I'm pretty sure it's a short coming apart because the church has a reputation of money money money. So but I I don't want to talk to you about a lot of money to give us to the to the church. Although it's the right thing to do and you should be generous and giving to the church where you get fed. Will you have to pay bills and electricity insurance and things.

It's not that I am looking for more money for us for the church. I'm looking for more money for you.

I'm trying to find ways and that's why we had faith and finances. Berlin sister Dorothy Champions, and we had some students and we appreciate it so much because we are teaching people how to be good stewards of what God has given them.

Have you ever read it? All some Churches have the description of their committees and many churches that just that I came from had a stewardship committee.

pretty impressive name what is stewardship committee from I was looking from they had the job of separating the members from their money.

I saw cinnamon more mean that I meant it because you got so quiet. They had the idea of inspiring the people in the church to get more to the church, but that is not the only stewardship.

That's a stewardship that says hey what God has given you take care of it.

Be wise with it. God has given you a car be wise what I thought and three years because you didn't do the oil changes and all these type of things that go with a car. squandered money you guys lost a pool store.

So I want to teach people Christian folks to be good stewards to not be in debt.

Thank you. I was just a little bit.

Because I've been in debt is not a bad Christian. I'm not doing that whatsoever. I'm just trying to encourage you to get out of that. If you're at all can because while you are in debt, you are a servant of the serpent that the borrower is servant. I'm sorry, right? So you are always accompany money. You are there servants, you might say it while I'm not there because so many hours in a month.

to pay that bill do I need to pay bills? Okay, so a certain amount of hours you are working for that company that you owe money to.

And if you don't do it.

Try not to do it to the IRS and see what happens.

so but why you didn't that you are working so many hours. Let us say your monthly bills are $2,000. Is that possible the house of the Lord is more than that. so you are in that for $2,000 a month that means when you when you make all the money to make it for a month $2,000 off of that $2,000 to go like like

where did it go?

But if you don't even understand that you don't have that problem any longer.

I told you what time I send that over million dollars and we didn't even have $1 today. We're out of that and

I am so joyful being out of that. and I think

I probably am maxed out on my joyfulness. Be out of debt in 2 months. I'm even more sorry. It's a pure joy and and and freedom.

At the money that you were paid to do dares. Goes down in your pocket. Now when Don Batman comes in the ocean. recipes with whoever

and all my brothers and sisters

the work of the kingdom of God should that be financed by the people of the Kingdom or by the people from another kingdom?

Should the work of the Kingdom be financed by unbelievers. Should we go to end Believers to bag them for money? Because the kingdom needs their money.

God has designed it that his people will take care of it. Nothing. Just got a check. He could use one of us up there or something, but it's human baby, but he can do it. Anyway, he wants to. Matter of fact when I was in that as I told you I went to deposit to the mailbox in front of my house every day to look for a check.

Is this a good day for God to send me a check in the mail?

If it does write me a check, I want to find it another way of doing it.

No, Jack, I wasn't even disappointed because because I told me already that he was going to take care of us. Okay, so now let me let me just let me just say one more thing about this.

I was going to ask you in the beginning. off today's preaching

if you would allow me. To be a little bit tough on you. So I'm just being a little bit tough not very tough, but the other stuff on my athletes and I'm on YouTube. Maybe that's not good. I feel like

that in many places. We are raising softy Christians.

When the enemy comes and goes boo.

But the armor of God has nothing in the back, so don't run away.

I want to stunt don't do that with whoever wants to rub your home at your business and your children. You're going to spend another time line. If you know, I'm calling on Jesus right now.

I'm calling my big brother on you.

Good.

so I hope I don't freak out with this, but I'm afraid I might be.

most of the time in in churches people teach about tithing I thought he was good.

tithing is not really taught in the New Testament. Why the New Testament talks about tithing it is primarily referring back to the Old Testament and therefore predictably when it talks about tithing in the New Testament in the book of Hebrews.

So what time you think of the idea and I'm fine with what you talkin bout Willis?

with I think it was the idea that when people died they think dabbing, very generous Murray brothers and sisters that's what they did under the law.

And I think that under grace God looks at it differently.

That's where I'm looking from diving is like the man am I freaking you out typing what I'm looking from if not generous.

I bought a boss podcast in for

God do I have money on me.

Hey, Google. I got your dip.

15% 15% is 15%

The smile every once in awhile just lost his mind.

So what I'm looking from I'm saying Christians Auto you don't have to agree with me. I know from descriptive what I'm looking from that not only should people tithe and then some but then some more.

Because you are not now Tigers any longer you are no Stewart of the money that God has given you of all that God has given you your wife your children your car your house everything including the money.

It's his and you understood up it. and if God needs more

do we agree? It's just money.

So let me tell you what I'm looking from.

I don't talk about these things very often because I'm afraid of people. But I'm in the shower with you. I'm your past you may as well know my heart and I'm not pondering these things.

but let me see if you agree with the statement all that I have is God's Yes.

let's just say I'm managing your money. So whose money is that? Your money I'm managing your money. It's your money. I just got to manage it. So but now I decide. I want to give you a gift. And I use your money.

You know how it works if I will ever going to give you a gift with your money. I first have to steal it from you before I can give it to you. 1042 B mine All you have to give it to me, but it's your money. So I just got to do with your money what you tell me to do. What is that? Is that is that fair 2001?

Sorry, I got excited. I'm a I'm an old coach. I just got excited, you know, so.

worship should I go to worship or should we go to?

I'll make it children worship. If we can go to Ephesians 5:18 and 2018 through 2000 season 5 18 through 20.

full time. Upset I just got excited about what God is saying his word.

I had a real soon. I Just Have Your Side Story require looking at the script you had a little student is a ten-year-old. He's been here before and the summertime because he's a 10 year old and is very disciplined. He gets up here and some Island 1/2 happy morning, then then he had some breakfast then he studies piano for a half an hour 45 minutes, then he works on math for a while and so on and so I brought him here. We stood right over there and ask him to interview them because I want it all young people to know. It's so disciplined. And that while he's going places. Is a math whiz and I asked him a few math problems and he just popped a molly just like that. I think I asked him. How is how how much is 65 squared?

4225

How do you know that? Well, let's tell the people. Okay, there's a trick with a number ends in 5 in the square and then there's a certain trick.

So he's a very very good time student. I teach him things that I don't even speak 16 year olds. He's 10 years old. He can do every shot in the book not like a pro not like a sixteen-year-old can but he has the technique and the understanding of how to execute so many different things that six year olds that are not his level. Can I do? And so on Monday he came and he just hang out.

His name is Cam Cameron. I love Cameron. Unlock camera on plain and simple you love working with people like that. But he didn't put out the day. and he says I just want to ask him I said, are you tired? Yeah. I said, Don, let me ask you this.

Have you ever seen me as your pro? Just chill or do I bring it every time every lesson I bring energy. Yes coach you bring it every time. So, let me ask you a question. Do you think I get tired sometimes?

I suppose go shopping you got there because I had an hour with you. But I've already been 5 hours on the phone. Oh, yes. I got that but you would never know it because even though I'm tired I can still let me ask you a question. Even though you're tired. Can you still move your feet?

And why you're tired, you can just tell me coach. I'm a little bit tired give me some consideration. Then I'll give you more breaks that day and the hour but while you're on the tennis court.

Start a timer little bit.

Understand because he thought he had disappointed me. Cameron you have not disappointed me. I'm your coach. So I have to go to in every area of the game every area of the game. And if you want to be good like a college scholarship or whatever like that bring it we just dreaming Mighty brothers and sisters I'm thinking that offer discussions with dreaming

we don't bring it. We don't bring it like we want it all the time when she is a little bit. It's such a nice man and such a great God and blah blah blah blah blah.

Cameron if you want to be really good you going to bring it all the time.

Where was I?

I'm going to be short with wine in which that is the special access, but be filled with the spirit. Okay. This is a lot of scripture has been abused a little bit. It doesn't say that you're going to drink alcohol instead of you. Kind of just be done. Just going to be drunk with it. I'm not promoting alcohol. I lost my business because of alcohol, but I have to be true.

So but they failed with a spirit.

Okay, 19 says speaking to one another in Psalms and hymns and spiritual songs singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord speaking and giving the Ephesians instructions that they should be filled with the spirit the very next verse he goes to worship.

What shape is a? a sign of the feeling of the spirit some people think about all kinds of other things and some other things. I don't know what that means. It's a sign that you talk about that today I want to do.

but he talks about worship and this is

an area that really needs to be talked about in the church. because

basket bunch of questions. Can I ask you a few questions?

Who worships?

Okay. Do you are you supposed to worship? OK every single believe what it's supposed to Worship in this scenario is the one who? If our sure or she is a worshipper.

When you look at the American Church. I'm 30 when I look at American church. I see a tendency. That where the people's worship depends on the people on stage.

Have you ever worship by yourself? Yes, I know. Yes to your phone of you. Worship myself I worship by myself all the time.

Sebastian music music So if you guys worship by yourself. Then let me ask you this is beautiful music worship.

A candy, but not necessarily so the more beautiful the music worship.

Beautiful music. Yeah, it's facilitates worship.

Bunch of the songs that you love and you just you listen to the lyrics. I just give them to God and God I feel like so it's all about you. I love you. Big hugs. Actually what I feel exactly what I'm thinking exactly what I want to express to you. But just because his beautiful music doesn't mean it is Watership. Just like if the music is not all that good that it does not worship. We got just watch it without music.

So it sure worship dependent on something on the outside not for the most beautiful music.

episode

Don't you hear me would you?

Make up your mind that you go to worship.

So in other words if the band is not any good you go to church on the banister any good or not that good not any good because typically, you know, they don't put them on the station. Decent. Then what most people do they make up their mind not to worship?

Over here the music you can worship brothers and sisters and not complain about music.

Never complain and I have always appreciated you as the church. Batman the young people first start playing music

They started pretty much exactly what I say key. Jackie pretty much as a beginner. Nicolas Ramos as a beginner But you supported them Angel a great pianist come to the piano with me. Would you? Okay pastor? Okay, I will never using in advance and if you can just cord prong, okay prom prom prom prom prom prom prom prom prom.

Can you do Jacob? Yes sense of humor? The week before we had some of the drums. And me on the guitar and me saying that is a joke.

Oh my God, if that's what you want. I'm available. Okay. You know that some people say hey, that's pretty good. Just shows that God is still in business. What leaves my mouth and word reaches your ears?

So we just got to make up our mind versus don't fall in the Trap when you go somewhere else that people are saying how the music is not so good, but I support them. Oh, I love the lyrics and I just worship God even though the music.

Sorry, I woke up at 4 today.

Okay, where are we?

by the way

there's different kinds of worship music s

some people have problems with repetition.

Because some of the courses they repaid and transferred. Well if it is a little bit charismatic. Well, I want a question for you. Have you ever heard of a guy named handle? Handel he was a contemporary of guys like and those type of guys go to Ellie lots of music and Handle, he rolled he wrote the piece called the Messiah. Have you ever heard of that? Do you know the chorus from the Messiah? I'm thinking Hendon was a charismatic. Hallelujah, hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah, hallelujah.

Haven't had no problem with it saying to the Lord Praise You praise you praise you praise you how do you get tired of that when God has done so much for you?

I got to save a few times.

About time to stop so I'm going to stop to stop maybe next week. We'll have a real talk about Christmas and and the birth of Jesus Christ and so on and so forth and then the week after will pick up. on forgiveness and love and grace and then maybe I can extended a little bit a little bit longer and I'm pleasing God of pleasing self will will will will will will go there. three brothers and sisters

if I got a little bit too excited whenever you forgive me, okay?

I can also go like this if you want me to.

I did brothers and sisters. Dial on the most precious Church. and all

I can do that, too. that you wouldn't like
