 because Jesus said greater works that than I have done here think about it now I've read through Matthew Mark Luke John in the book of Acts and there's some great stuff in there but he said greater God's not limited to what's recorded in the Bible they couldn't even record all the things that Jesus did John 14 12 very truly I tell you whoever believes in me will do the works I have been doing and they will do even greater things than these this is a promise that God made us that you will do the things that I did and greater cause I did more work than the Son of God I think ever since I was a little boy maybe ever since that you guys were a little also everybody's always wanted to be something special or another way of putting it something greater than what you really are right when you were when you were little you looked up to somebody that was bigger because he was greater than you or she was greater than you when you were in fourth grade you might have looked up to the fifth graders or the sixth graders when you're in junior high you look up to the high school is when you were freshmen you might have looked up to the seniors because that was something that was greater in your mind right it's always been that way now when we look at this passage and we're gonna look at the passage that they derived this idea from where some will take it that you could do or be I say do do greater works than Jesus did just the sound of it does does the sound of it sound even right does it does it sound right to say that we'll be able to do greater things than Jesus not just what he does not just the things that Jesus has done but greater now I can say no that didn't sound right that doesn't even seem plausible makes no sense but then there's a passage that says greater he says that these things you do that I do you'll do and then greater and that just right it just it just kind of it it kind of boggles the mind and I think there's a certain class of preacher that would also say the same thing and my thing is even before we get to the to the to the greater what what about just the regular things that Jesus did not we're talking about doing not what not just what he did but greater than what he did so he's saying not only do you gonna are you gonna do what I do but you're gonna do greater well I just right now I just settled for what he did well if I do that because I saw where he stopped the storm I saw when he cursed a tree and it dried up within 24 hours I saw where he made the blind to see the lame to walk I saw where he even took a man who had been dead four days and his body decomposing and brought him back to life now this this is the one that says I'm supposed to do that too so we're gonna look at some of the things that Jesus did we kind of have to but I want you all to think about this just in your mind think about the people that you will that you have seen and then even take note going forward the people that the people that will say this who would say yeah we can do the things that Jesus there's a reason why they're saying this though but I want you take a note in your mind of who all you can you can remember and if you can't remember notice the people who will say so in the future that say that we can do the things that Jesus has done we're commanded to those things that we have the Spirit of God in us and so not only can we do the things that he's done we will do those things and even greater now sometimes they're gonna put a little caveat on them they're gonna say well it's all dependent upon your level of faith and so forth but okay now we're looking the past and see if if any caveat was put on that if there's anything that was added to that to make sure that hey this is the way that you'll be able to do greater things is by this this and this we're gonna see that in a second but the problem is most of these people no I take that back I take that back I'm gonna say something that and I don't mean it I really don't mean it to be mean spirit or to sound mean or to sound derogative derogative or anything like that but I don't think that the people that believe that you can do better things than Jesus did I don't think that they would ever be confused as stalwarts of theology that these were the the greatest matter of fact have you ever noticed that some of these people that we kind of talk about sometimes and sometimes laugh at sometimes like our head it sometimes just kind of shake our fist and just get irate about some of things they're teaching have you ever noticed that that you really don't see them kind of breaking down the Bible you really don't see them cutting through the scriptures right rightly dividing it as a matter of fact when those who those of us who try to rightly divide it and try to break it down they'll say that we're guilty of being too theological spending too much time studying not relying on the power of the Holy Spirit when again the power of the Holy Spirit gave us the book gave us these words for us to rightly divide but if we do it that way then we're not using the the the spirit but they're using the spirit and it's almost this kind of hocus pocus kind of mystical way it almost borders voodoo sometimes right some sort of black magic or or or a cult it and so it is no surprise that the people that you see that tout this belief that we can do greater things and this belief in signs and wonders and miracles to that degree that these really aren't the deepest when it comes to studying the scriptures and these are the folks that don't want to have a discussion with other people about where they might be right or might be wrong they don't want to have that discussion but if we're smart and you all are because this is where the smart Christians come the smart Christians channel hey smart Christians how are you that's you guys because not that we have gotten to a level of understanding that we can never be wrong no smart is just being able to realize that I might be wrong about something and trying to find out where being open to the possibility of being wrong because I know that when I'm wrong guess what if I discovered I'm wrong it's not a bad thing it's a good thing because I just learned something new and so we're not afraid of taking scriptures and comparing it with other whatever whatever one else would say it's a no core you're wrong on this part okay show me how no Mary you're wrong on this part okay show me how that's what smart Christians do it's not that I'm the smart Christian you're the smart Christian system we're trying to be smart as Christians and so you don't see them doing that same thing they don't open themselves up for back and forth conversation and if you do disagree with them well then how dare you but when they look at this particular passage they break this passage down all wrong and so I want to go ahead and let you listen to one of the Star Wars of theology one of the great mystical theologians out there let him break down chapter 12 I'm chapter 14 of John 14 for John 14 12 preached wrong so many times I've heard so many people on YouTube and Bible teachers and guys that get on here and they try to undermine say deliverance isn't for today miracles aren't for today they say that this scripture doesn't mean what Jesus said it means so let's look at John 14 12 this is Jesus speaking so these words are in red he says I tell you the truth I'm not lying he says I tell you the truth anyone who believes in me will do the same works I have done and even greater works because I am going to the father now I want you to notice he does not say the disciples will do the same works I've done come on chat are you guys awake tonight he does not say the apostles are going to do the same works that I've done now I will grant him this the past that he's referring to is not speaking of just the just the apostles or just the disciples and so I'll give him I'll give him that but that's about that's about it he does not say this will happen until I die on the cross and then once I die on the cross we don't need the casting out of demons he doesn't say that he doesn't say after the book of Acts we don't need it any longer there's no end to this verse the prereq by the way I think that that whole statement that about this stopping or whatever after the cross or whatever I really think I really feel like he got that from me because that's one of the things that I've levitated at them before is that this whole issue of casting out of demons and so forth you don't see it after the founding of the church you don't see anyone commanded to go and cast out demons matter of fact the last time you see it is Paul doing so I think it was Paul but after that the founding of the church that wants the Jews the Samaritan Gentiles have received it and then once once John's Apostles I mean disciples received it the Holy Spirit and the founding of the church you don't see a command do so in any time that someone is struggling with something even if it's something that's demonic you never see them saying hey cast the demons out so I kind of think that maybe he got that whole point to say right there for me I don't know maybe not maybe maybe I'm just leaping but anyway back was it is any believer in me anyone who believes in me will do the the same works and that means actually identical works we don't even have to say the even greater even though Jesus said it but he says they're gonna do the same works and even greater so let's look at the passage and let's see is that what he's talking about so let's go ahead and put on the screen John 14 12 truly truly I say to you whoever believes in me and so the whoever this word here the ones that are believing is the high-pistol ones the believing ones in me and so that does so he's correct it's not just focusing on just disciples and or apostles so it's all the believing ones in him again I give him credit for that but that's it then it says whoever the ones who are believing in me will also do the works that I do and greater works than these he will do because I'm going to the father now he puts in something that kind of lets us know what the key is this one right here because Hati tells us why we'll be able to do these greater works the purpose of these works he says because we go I go to the father we'll come to that in just a second but let's go back to it this word right here for the word greater let's put up on the screen for greater works this word right here if you look in the bottom left hand corner it's the word mexona it is derived from the Greek word megas okay I don't know if you all see that bottom left hand corner megas megas means great and it could it could mean great big or large um numerically now what jesus is speaking of he's not speaking of better he's speaking of in terms of volume how do I know let's go back to the screen again the word make mexona is from the word megas let me give you another passage where this word this word megas was also used this word was also used coincidentally when jesus is getting ready to cast out these demons and in mark 511 there's now a great herd of pigs was feeding there on the hillside this word great there it is right here the word mega layers from the word megas okay now question do you all think that this was some awesome herd of pigs this was the best best herd of pigs in the history of mankind this this herd of pigs these were some these were some tough these were some tough pigs right no excuse me this was a large herd of pigs this was a large herd let's put it back on the screen this was a large herd of pigs and it says he says send us to these to these pigs let us enter them and he gave them permission now we know it's talking about a large herd of pigs because look at the bottom it says numbering two thousand so clearly he's speaking about the number of pigs now coming back to this the issue is this guys if you don't exegete a text properly if you don't exegete a text properly you'll come to the conclusion he has to and really what happens is we want a text to say what we wanted to say so we can get to the conclusion that we want to get to the conclusion someone like he would have or any of those people that i that i've talked about that i brought up um the geno genes of the world not as much to him but still some to some degree him as well uh the kenneth coltons of the world the catherine cricks of the world the marcus riders of the world all of these people these folks that are that are casting out demons left and right and so forth you have to come to this conclusion you have to come to this conclusion in order to say that i can do all the in order for you in order for you to believe that i have the power in order for you to believe that i can cast out demons in order for you to believe that i can lay my hands on you and cause folks to fall out in order for you to believe that i can prophesy and and call those things at night as they work in order for you to believe that about me you have to believe that this text is talking about me and then possibly possibly you now i want you to believe that it applies to you but more so me because I'm the one that's doing it and the reason why you're not doing it because you don't have the faith quite yet but I'm all the faith that you need right now just believe in me and the powers that I'm doing and eventually you'll get there but I need you to believe this passage is saying I can do what Jesus did but not just what he did but greater than what he did now by the way this is a new this is a new they didn't come up with this they didn't figure this out on their own okay this is a old tactic this is a old strategy from who who do you all think invented this well I just want to mark his old snake back mountain well speaking of a snake this is where it comes from going to Genesis 3 verse 1 now the serpent this snake was more crafty than any other beast of the field and look what he says did God actually say you shall not eat of any tree of the garden and the woman said the serpent we may eat of the fruit of the trees in the garden but God said you shall not eat of the fruit of the tree in the midst of the garden neither shall you touch it lest you die but the serpent the snake said to the woman you will not truly die and look what he says here it is for God knows that when you eat of it your eyes will be open and you will be like God knowing good need but the but the focus is to be like God to be like God well that's the issue that's the thing I want to be like God I don't want to be like anybody I want to be like God being like the rest of you y'all I don't y'all get over there I want to be like God remember I said there's there's two things that heretics do two things that heretics do one of two they won't do the same thing but one of two they will either bring God down to our level and fashion God into a God like me in other words if I am let's say if I'm an LGBTQ plus ABC one two three kind of person well then that's what kind of God he will be I'll bring him down to look like me and we can look eye to eye the way I think is the way God thinks or the second way is if I don't bring God down to my level then what I'll do I'll go up to God's level and I'll be like him exhibiting the same kind of power and so forth and thinking the same way and moving the same way when forgetting the mere fact that I'm a clump of dirt with some with some breath with some breath in it that's it I am a I'm a clump of worthless dirt that had the life the air the breath of God breathed in me that's it but notice what they do now this group tends to make themselves out to be more like God in other words going up to God and saying they have the same powers of God well they don't but that's what Satan wants us to do remember he says to her you will be like God now it's this kind of verbal gymnastics that he's playing and so you will be like God you won't be God but you'll be like God and so now one of the things that you also have to think about sometimes is when God or when Jesus has commissioned his disciples to do something is it him commissioning everyone or just them now earlier Jesus commissions the disciples and specifically just the disciples to go out and do some signs and ones let's pull this up too because sometimes they mix the two up let's go to Matthew chapter 10 and then we see Matthew 10 he says these 12 Jesus sent out so who did Jesus send out he sent out the 12 instructing them go nowhere go nowhere among the Gentiles and enter no town of the Samaritans but go rather to the lost people the house of Israel and to proclaim as you go saying the kingdom of heaven in hand now look what he says in verse eight he's telling them to heal the sick to raise the dead to cleanse the lepers cast out demons right now again he's he's explaining to them what to do he's not explaining to us and he's and and if we're going to follow this to a team we can only we can only go to the Jews we can only cast out the demons of the Jews heal the Jew the sick Jews right cleanse the leperous Jews that's all we could do and then receive no money in return well that last part the receiving money in return that's going to be a hard part for them but it's clear to see that who Jesus speaking to here he's speaking clearly to the 12 to the to the to his disciples but what they'll do is they will conflate the two they'll add the two together and so when Jesus sent them out to do those same things then when it's talking about go and either cast demons out or do greater works well then that's for us as well now granted chapter 14 verse 12 of John is not just for the 12 it's for all of us but he's not saying greater in terms of better he's speaking in terms of volume before we get to the volume part though let's just stop and think about it for a second if he actually did mean in terms of better now we can couch out on in terms of what's good we can say even if even if just like Bill Winston said I would like to just do what he just did not even doing greater well can y'all think of some things that Jesus did that was pretty great just some did it for Jesus just run on the mill stuff right let's think about this because someone says that we are to continue the ministry of Jesus well no you're not no who took who told you that who told you that you were supposed to continue the ministry of Jesus no you've been given another ministry according to 2nd Corinthians Paul says that we have been given the ministry of reconciliation that's the ministry that we all that we have that's the ministry that we had okay it's not not for anyone else thank you Percy astronaut status it's not for anyone else to be like Jesus we have our own ministry are you with me but because if our ministry was to be like Jesus let's just cover some of the things that Jesus did if we're going to be like Jesus and following Jesus footsteps we gotta and I'll and I'll you know what go ahead and let me see some in the chat as well if I because it's going to be hard for me to come up with remember all the things that Jesus did but let's just let's just rattle off a few things that we have to do also just even be like Jesus not better but just like Jesus how about feeding 5000 oh I'm sorry also 4000 he fed 4000 on one occasion and 5000 and the 5000 was just me how about calming the wind and the waves how about that how about okay if you want to be like Jesus continue this ministry you better show some power like how about walking on the water not just calming the wind away walking on the water how about walking through a closed door water turning water into wine how about when they're after you vanishing in the midst of the people hey Isaiah try that on do that oh I would love to see you uh Mr. Gino Jennings who's yeah I've done greater works in the Son of Man how about how about this how about transfiguration how about do that how about we just see you do that I would love to see wow that's a trick how about raising the dead not just once not just twice but several times how about doing that how about restoring sight to the blind any blind folks ever come to see you lately how about healing someone of leprosy not just once not just twice again turning turning water into wine that's pretty easy surely surely you guys surely Ms. Catherine Crick surely you can turn water into wine that'd be easy but we're talking about greater when I know let's just do what what what we know Jesus did before we're talking about doing something greater than what Jesus did let's see if we can do what Jesus did how about bearing our sins Catherine Gino Bill Isaiah Marcus any of you people can you bear my sins I don't think you can but I don't try you can't even bury on sin but that's what Jesus did oh what about forgiving sins yeah what about that or how about just do the whole thing just die on the cross how about dying on the cross can you do that yeah he did he pulled money out of a fish now you guys have a different way of getting money you don't pull money out of a fish you just pull out by uh guilting someone into giving money to you so I so y'all probably have Jesus beat that way Jesus the way you guys raise money compared to Jesus you all might have him beat right there you all might have been but other than that I would love to see you all bear sins like he did I would love to see that I don't think I matter of fact I caution you not to try now since you guys except for Marcus believe well you know I don't know what you guys believe let's take that back if you guys believe that Jesus is God I know some of you all don't believe that some of you all are oneness some of you all are Trinitarians I don't know but since if you believe that Jesus is God then you also have to not just start with what Jesus did in the New Testament but what Jesus did in the Old Testament right how about part in the Red Sea how about appearing as a burning bush or what about creating mankind creating the world that's just the easy stuff that Jesus did creating light if you really thought that that's what he meant just think about it for a second just just think about it for a second we can't even make ourselves act right and we want to act like we're going to do more than what Jesus did come on just use your brain I would say X XG the text excuse me but you're not gonna do that that would be a miracle in and of itself right there is to get you guys to XG the text properly because all you have to do we will let listen in case you all are watching let's do it on the screen for for the for these people for the Isiahs for the Genos of the world for the Catherine critics of the world let's XG the text again he says whoever believes in me the ones that are believing in me will also do the works that I do and greater in the word just just text for this part right here may guys make so nice it simply means greater in terms of volume well in terms of volume we'll get to what that means in just a second because it tells us how we get there because this word right here because Hati I am going to the father so the reason why we will be able to do greater works in terms of volume is because he's going to the father well what's that what's he got to do anything well because he goes to the father then what happens we receive the Holy Spirit and so since Jesus was really relegated about what 40 50 miles or whatever space that he walked between and never never ever leaving Palestine now the Holy Spirit is in not just one person in one location but all over the place now we've got people sharing the gospel all over the world and that's what he meant that's the ministry that Jesus he came to give us life and so we in turn take that gospel that life giving gospel and give it to other people I want you all to know who this Jesus is that we're talking about remember if you want to do I've been drinking all kind of stuff for the last few days trying to save my poor little voice and it ain't working it ain't working could y'all imagine by the way could you all imagine if I'd have got really really sick if I would have become deathly ill could you have imagined by the way I'm feeling a lot better it's just my throat just wants to take its time but could you imagine if I'd have gotten like sick or something real bad could you imagine the videos made about the people who dared to speak against these people and how God is rebuking me how God is knocking me down for speaking against the prophets of God the people of God but that ain't it though um even with a bad throat uh Isaiah Marcus Gino I'm still on you I'm still coming so yeah I probably I need to do something I didn't just rest my voice after this I'm gonna go back and watch some TV and I didn't I didn't not even plan on um doing this video live I didn't I'd gotten busy I was going to record it I could have taken my time taken about an hour to do this thing I let my voice rest but I got so busy I couldn't and I'd already put the thing up so I had to go ahead and do it I said you know what I'll just labor through this why because greater works than this I'm kidding if we had that ability my throat would be fine I would never be sick they would never be sick but think about this though if we're going to be greater than Jesus y'all do realize or maybe they don't realize it excuse me maybe they don't realize this who this Jesus is this is the one this Jesus is the one who all power and authority was given in his hand so if we are going to do the same thing if the same thing is going to happen to him it's going to happen with us then guess what wouldn't that mean the same authority and power be given to us in our hands no that would be blasphemous and he is now who is this who is this Jesus who is this Lord that we're talking about can I just put on the screen who it is y'all y'all recall this passage right here right this is Ephesians 3 20 says now unto him who is able to do far more abundantly than all that we can ask or think according to the power and work within us to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations forever and ever amen that's the person whose power you're trying to usurp that's the person whose power you're trying to make yourself equal with Jesus did not consider it robbery to be equal with God why do you all think that you but you think that it's not robbery to be equal with Jesus something's wrong with you people something is really really wrong with you people yeah it doesn't think that you can do what he can do put it back on the screen that's who that's who you're trying to that's who you're trying to usurp can I tell you the problem that we have the problem that we have as Christians is that we really can't let Jesus just be Jesus meaning we can't let him be enough we want to kind of hog in and get some of his his power for ourselves if somebody says that my definition of usurp is wrong no it's not it's the absolute correct definition you're trying to you and maybe you're in that category maybe you serve ma'am or in that category but anytime that you want to make yourself equal co-equals or what have you with Jesus you are a lie you are wrong and we've seen people who try to be that way and I get it I get it I get it some folks just hey I don't like your your what you stated on this and so I'm not gonna like anything that you say that's fine that's fine uh yeah the the word that I use was to usurp and it was the correct word you don't like that word find another word but that's what they're trying to do to usurp his authority to be equal with him because even to make yourself in any way shape and fashion some way in some light close to what he is that's blasphemous not blasphemous the Holy Spirit am I saying that but it's a lie and I don't know why you don't just think that him being your savior is enough why him all the power and dominion are going to him no you're like Simon let me hog in let me just hog some of the light from you you can say no all you want to you can say no all you want to find tell me what word what's the better word to use then you you can't and and I'm wondering I'm wondering sir ma'am do you agree do you agree with these people because I know for a fact there's nothing that Jesus did that I could do do you know who had the right let me just put this up on screen for you let me just let me just do this let me just do this for you because I don't I I wish that people would get this um or my 20 here we go let's just say what John said this is whom I said after me comes a man who ranks before me because he was before me now y'all recall what John also said John spoke highly of Jesus says I'm not even worthy to unloose his sandal straps that's who we're talking about I'm not even worthy to unloose his sandals Jesus let me just tie your shoes up I'm not even worthy to do that I'm not even worthy to do that and you guys want to act like not you guys in the chat maybe one of you two two of you guys intense I don't know but these other folks want to act as though you are in some way different fashion have what he has uh oh I see someone and so yeah if you think that you can do what he can do or better than you are trying to use sir as least to put up take a position or power of importance illegally or by force and to do so you are either intentionally or unintentionally deceiving yourselves and others excuse me my voice is just just about to go away it's actually getting better it's actually getting better okay thank you now was the right definition thank you listen this is the smart christians channel you're the smart christians channel that means I'll tell you what I'm gonna do about that I'm good for another 30 seconds for my voice accent it's killing me it's killing me but anyway this is how I roll though right here can I put my one of my favorite passages though let me pull up one of my favorite passages it says I have been crucified with christ it is no longer I who live but christ who lives in me and the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the son of god who loved me and gave himself for me now I've not given myself for anybody he said I should be resting I should I should you know what again I thought I was gonna be better for this and I wasn't and I said dawg I gotta go I'm committed I'm committed but I've got my kids uh making dinner I think my wife just got home I'm not sure I'm about to go home I mean go back in the room and get baby to pampered and that'll be that but in the meantime I gotta set some things straight any of these folks listen if anyone ever tells you if anyone ever tells you that they can do what Jesus can do call them alive I think the problem is that we have gotten to the point that we don't want to offend anyone and so that when someone says something outrageous and stupid let's just call it what it is it's stupid it's stupid it's evil um the lord is telling me that I need some bitcoin I see all these bitcoin bots popping up but the lord but if anyone tells you I'm just waiting to see if anyone of these bitcoin bots are gonna pop up if it ain't if it ain't something I guess it's better uh than the x-rated stuff popping up the bitcoin stuff thank god for the bitcoin rather than the x-rated stuff and I better stop because what's gonna happen next the x-rated stuff's gonna pop up in a second I don't know YouTube needs to fix that fix that matter of fact I tell you what Marcus and Isaiah you guys why don't y'all stop that lay hands on YouTube and stop that there's a sign from god so when y'all see this is the point I'm going somewhere over the next few weeks I want us to be brave and to fight against this stuff because there there literally are people that are being hurt I said this before at the end of every heresy is a soul at the end of every heresy is a soul and someone who doesn't know the scriptures well is reading into this and it makes sense like yeah yeah you're right we can call those things that matter though they were and and no you can't and then when it doesn't happen well it's not with god and it's not with his word the problem's gotta be with me and what's wrong with me and something pray for my faith guys and well you have a an unfaithful demon you have an impressive demon on you let us cast that out let us mentor you let us let us work with you just so into this ministry yeah so you're gonna feel defeated emotionally spiritually mentally and we're gonna drain your pocket book because we're gonna need you to keep listening to us this stuff is harmful to the body it is and so uh someone just gave me a thumbs down which is fine give me some more thumbs down if you think what I just said is wrong then you're wrong nothing I said I can confidently say this that everything I said so far in this broadcast has been biblical you cannot do more than God can do you just can't you can't do close to what he can do you have a hard time Jesus said I've told you earthly things and you don't understand those things have been kind of you heavenly things which means you don't even have the ability to think like Jesus you can't even comprehend what Jesus can comprehend okay camera you actually did that tell me what I need you to do I need you to go create four more counts and sign in and give me the give me the thumbs up no I'm just kidding I did see a chance it went from four to three thank you sir that does happen though you actually hit the uh the thumbs down and you need to hit the thumbs up by the way get the likes up people so um now my grandson wants to come in now my grandson wants to come here I thought he was leaving he is something else um open the door three my my grandson's name is three so hold on one second three in oh I I thought I thought I thought I hit the mute button and I didn't so anyway but while I wrap this up guys and before I get to go lay down um I want to make sure that at any time that I get opportunity to see when someone says something like this as just so off um we'll use these as an opportunity as a as an opportunity to go over the scriptures and see what it actually says because some folks not on their side really do think that huh what does that mean he says greater and it does mean greater it just means that I will do you we will do more because he goes to the father of the Holy Spirit and what is because now remember this in the same thought that Jesus having in John 14 it's kind of a continual thought that he's having in John 14 15 16 he's speaking about he's getting them ready for when he gets ready to leave so Jesus is on his way out the door so to speak he's on his way to be crucified um but what he says is and this this is kind of really the beginning of that thought in chapter 14 but in 15 what's going to happen when he goes to the father the Holy Spirit comes and when the Holy Spirit comes what happens he comes in them to testify and because he comes in them to testify or to witness of him that's what we're going to do so from now on as long as you have the Holy Spirit in you you are going to witness to testify of the goodness of Christ either on the street corner either at work either as you just write and thank you letter to someone if you just give it someone a hug god bless your sister whatever who knows how you're going to do it but in some way super fashion because it's more of us in different locales than Jesus was because remember in his earthly ministry Jesus voluntarily emptied himself of some of his godly prerogatives which was to mean which was him not being everywhere at the same time so in his earthly ministry he was only located in one place god the father was in heaven the spirit was everywhere but but god the son was wherever he was okay and so now that living in us yeah i'm struggling i'm struggling just chat uh that living in us it's us all over all over but the thing is now we can all testify of Christ to our neighbors to our co-workers wherever online um in our writings what have you so and everybody's giving me um giving me solutions to do uh gargle with salt water honey y'all know much honey i've drink i've drink drinking drink drunk what's the right word drink how much honey have i have i've i've drank a bunch of honey i've taken in a bunch of honey i'm saying the wrong way you know much honey i've had he's a couple thousand with blue star i do have by the way honey and lemon i drank okay she said you know how much honey i've drank okay all right don't go any now you all confuse me it's one of the two i'm drinking i'm drunking i drank i'll be drinking i mean okay there it is he said i need to pray in tongues i ate praying tongues of drank how much how much you know how much honey i've drank yeah that's how we're gonna do it listen be wrong be wrong as best you can be as wrong as you can be so let's just say you know how much honey i've drank you know there come the bitcoins again and so i've taken all these different remedies and so forth uh why would you say i don't believe in healing who when have i ever said i don't believe in here i do believe in healing as a matter of fact when someone is sick you know what i do i pray i pray for my lord would you please heal them but you need to know something about me though i recognize i see you look drunk okay uh i recognize where healing comes from i recognize that it doesn't come from my power or by anyone else's hands it comes from him and it's his prerogative to do so not mine that you know what that might be right too Sheila that might be right because uh when i was a little boy in the winter up north they would give us little teaspoons or tablespoons of alcohol to kind of war i don't have any alcohol in house so but i brought up the other day about using in the wrong way isaac 53 by his stripes we have been healed that mean that we pray that and that you know what yep i say that prayer and i'm healed no no that's not what i mean that's not what it means um well it healed me then get listen get to get to healing touch you you want me to lean my head on the screen is that what you want to get to healing get to healing and i listen i take it if i get healed now as long as you know if i get healed i don't i'm not giving you the credit i don't think that's what you're asking for but uh i if i believe in god's healing power no i don't i got hennessey no i didn't know no uh by the way i've never i've never drank hennessey i've never drank it i've never drank any of that stuff before although i did it one time one time my junior year junior year in high school i got high and drunk at the same time yeah was not a good experience and so i don't drink or get high ever since then yeah so um but um i believe in i believe in healing i believe in um the power of god i also believe in the prerogative of god which means he can do what he wants to how he wants to and if he doesn't it's okay with me um i can't i can't there's some things i want to tell you about that what god has done recently and when he did it like yeah god i expected that i i had this relationship to where where what he does i expected if he don't i still expect it i expect him to do what he's supposed to do i expect that's my faith i expect god to do what he's supposed to do um and that doesn't mean that i get what i want sometimes i don't even get what i think i need but i trust him i can't tell you how much i trust him and then one thing i'll even share with with um with my wife something that she doesn't even know i'll share with her later but i trust see that's what it means to be to be a true christian to lean on not his power i mean on our power but on his power that's what a that's what a real christian is guys newsflash i don't think you in case you haven't been told a real christian leans on his power not mine yeah he said a real christian leans on his power not not my power so anyone walking around here thinking that you got the power what's that what's that group back in the 90s i got the power no you don't no you don't and so um i've had i've had night quill i've had day quill i've had um so i've had this has been a drill kind of stuff i've had that i've had pseudofed um can i tell you guys what the biggest problem has been and my wife has told me that she said it she said it's your your own fault you big idiot she didn't call me big idiot but i felt like that's what she was trying to say and i am the biggest problem with me is getting enough rest i naturally wake up early in the morning i just naturally do i since i was a little boy waking up at five in the morning cnc music factory i love i love my uh i love the smart christians it's like if i say one thing everybody's on it but um but there was another group also that that didn't wasn't there another group that made that same song there was a time going on where you had groups making the same song a similar similar song back in that time but anyway um i just don't don't get enough rest i'll i'll if i go to sleep at 12 i'm getting up at five and then something to happen tell you about this cat right that we got if if this cat that we have he's not satanic he's really not he's really a cool cat but he's a cat yeah i've got him if um he'll come the other night he came and sat on the little red thing beside the bed and just sat with his face to my face and just started meowing and meowing and meowing i was like oh lord what is wrong with this devil cat right here i just like you can't i don't care who you are you can't sleep like that so i got to see what he wanted he didn't want anything he didn't want he didn't want anything i gave him some food made sure he can get to this kitty litter he could he just wanted me out as soon as i let him go coconut comes lays her head right by my face and starts wagging her tail she wants to go out and use the bathroom now it's four o'clock in the morning if it's four in the morning if it's four in the morning and i get up at five why am i going to sleep i try to but that's my problem i'm gonna eat and that's that's the biggest problem um and it dawned on me since what year since 95 yeah about 95 95 96 nothing about allergic to him it's not them i'm not allergic to dogs or cats not them since 95 the cat was prophesied since about 95 96 i have spoken for a living i've talked for a living right either as a as a financial advisor as a run my own firm or in ministry and so and i've never really had a problem my voice going out it's just i've got to get rest especially when you get old that's when you get older that's just me you sound like the person you must have a lot of hair you must have a lot of hair but that's right you know it's funny though it doesn't take a whole lot to come to this conclusion but that's what jesus was talking about that you'll do more it doesn't take a whole lot to come to that conclusion but anyway um lastly guys though and let me just reiterate again if you think you can do more than jesus you are sadly mistaken if you think that you can do more than him you are sadly mistaken and so the whole point of this is to correct an error that's out there um that um so you're kind of ready to say some blasphemes i'll ignore him i'll ignore what he just said but if you think you can do more than jesus or you can do anything equivalent to jesus you are mistaken very as as brianna says very very mistaken there is no god like him and you ain't close to him you need him you rely on him if you don't if you think that if you don't rely on him and you think what you can do is equivalent to him then you have demonstrated that you really need him because you're not safe you have put yourself in his place which means you have not submitted yourself to him so guys i want to thank you so much for bearing with me uh i'm gonna go back in that's what it is in it that's you know what nate that's that that really is what it is that really is envy and pride which is coupled together that's a bad thing how could yeah how can you do more than the one that saved you like but like nate said envy and pride and what comes before pride no what comes after pride as a backwards destruction so guys i look forward to uh seeing you i don't know when i see you get live uh it would definitely won't be tomorrow i say that and then watch watch me be on live tomorrow definitely and i was supposed to be on live with someone else today but i had to cancel because i knew i was gonna be bad today um but i will see you all again uh either live sunday or monday who knows maybe next week depending on if i get enough rest in the meantime guys you all be blessed
