HRMW2104 PST2 THE SPIRITUALSTATE OFCHURCH MEMBERS IS DETERMINED BY THESPIRITUAL STATE OFTHE CHURCH .

0:01 Give thanks to God. Give honor to his name. Worship the Lord. He has brought us to his presence to learn. He wants us to know him. He wants us to know his ways. He wants us to follow him with perfection. He wants us to be wise in Jesus name we pray.

0:53 We are grateful unto you, my God, for teaching us out of your world, giving us clear understanding so that we can keep ourselves, we can follow you rightly and please you in all our ways. Thank you for this. Grant your children understanding Jesus name we pray. Amen. You can be seated. Last Sunday

1:42 in our Bible study, we considered hypothesis one, which says a man does not remain in the righteousness of God for too long, except And you saw how the study went and you are great with that because is actually a scriptural understanding. Today we're considering

2:28 hypothesis two which states that the spiritual state of church members is determined by the spiritual state of the church leader. Except now you will repeat this after me. The spiritual state of church members is determined by the spiritual state of the church leader. Except

3:16 our study in scripture shall show that to us. In Matthew chapter 10 verse 24 and 25, Matthew chapter 10 verse 24 says the disciple is not above his master. not the servant above his lord. It is enough for the disciple that he be as his master and the servant as his lord.

4:02 This is how the scripture puts it. There is the master There is the servant. There is the leader, the teacher and there is the disciple, the follower who is learning under his leader. And the Bible says the disciple that is leaning from one leader

4:50 is not above his master who leads him cannot know more than his master from who is the source of his knowledge. Although there exception in Matthew chapter 7 from verse 15, beware of false prophets which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are reverent worlds. Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns or figs of thistles? Even so, every good tree bringeth forth good fruit,

5:36 but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit. A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. Every tree, verse 19, that bringeth not good fruit, that bringeth not forth good fruit is heuned down and cast into the fire. Verse 20. Can we say it together? One, two, go. Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them. Is this saying the same thing? Are are they good?

6:22 The fruit, the members, the followers shall be as good as they are. Are the pastors evil? Then all things being equal, the exception I'm saying or otherwise their members should be as evil and corrupt as they are. Hence they are known by their fruits. That's what the Bible is saying. They

7:10 are known by their fruits. Is telling us this that people are not the same. There are the good and they are the bad. Make sure you make your choice well and check up where you are because there are places you can be in Christianity in Christian worship that you will never be able to come to the truth.

7:55 You will never worship God in a true way. Why? You are under masters that don't know him. You are under masters that are corrupt. And two, there are places that you can be that will make you know the Lord, know his ways, and grow in righteousness. Whose place? It is the place that is banned, governed by a true teacher, a true master

8:40 that knows the world and is teaching it correctly. God wants us to know that if you are under a corrupt teacher, pastor, preacher, prophet, call it whatever name, general overseer, bishop or whoever you call. If that person is not correct, does not know it correctly, you will be affected by him. If that person is a sinner

9:28 that is not preaching the word of God truly, he will contaminate you. Some forces will lead you away because the weights you hear have effect on you. Turn away from a foolish man when you do not perceive in him the weights of knowledge. Keep your heart with all diligence for out of it are the issues of life. If the heart is exposed to wrong things, the heart will be easily deceived to accept them.

10:15 What has made Muslims to believe that their prophet Muhammad is better than Jesus is what they grew up hearing. They kept hearing it from their youth and it sent a spirit into their spine into their soul. Hence they come to believe it. They come to believe that it is like that. But it is not like that. But it is not like that. So keep hearing a wrong thing for a long time, you will behave like it.

11:04 Keep listening to a true thing for a long time, you will also behave like it. So it is where you are that matters. The place of a leader in the church of Christ cannot be overlooked. The churches of Christ worldwide cannot possess righteousness of God above that which their leadership possesses. That's the hypothesis.

11:50 The spiritual state of church members is determined by the spiritual state of the leaders. Except as we go on, we shall see the exception. They are righteous as their leaders and as corrupt as their leaders. If the leaders are righteous, the members will attend to righteousness as they keep on hearing and following him. If the leaders are corrupt, the members will get corrupted also as

12:35 they keep on hearing and believing them. Hence tell me which church or ministry you belong to and I will tell you your spiritual state. Look at it in 2 Kings chapter 3 verse 11 and 12. 2 Kings chapter 3 verse 11 and 12. Yes. The scripture tells us here

13:22 saying, "But Jehoshaphat said, "Is there not here a prophet of the Lord that we may inquire of the Lord by him?" And one of the kings of Israel's servants answered and said, "Here is Elisha, the son of Chaff, which poured water on the hands of Elijah." And Jehoshaphat said, "The word of the Lord is with him." The conviction of Jehoshaphat was strong on Elijah. Why? Because he knew

14:10 the teacher of Elisha, the mentor of Elisha. As long as Elisha served Elijah, be sure the spirit of truth and righteousness is with him. Be sure God is with him because God was with Elijah. Everybody knew it. So tell me who is your mentor. Tell me which church you go to. I will tell you your spiritual state. If you are a faithful follower of that man,

14:55 if you are a faithful member of that church, I will surely tell you your spiritual state. Yes, that how it goes. again. Tell me who is your leader in Christianity and I will tell you your spiritual state. True. If you mention somebody that I know is a corrupt man, maybe oh I had been a disciple of TB Joshua. I will know your spiritual state. Because we know he be Joshua before he

15:43 died. If you mention another man which has been a prominent man and I know him and we know him, we will tell you your spiritual state. If you are a faithful disciple to such a person, why we shall know them by their fruits? We shall know them by their fruits. They bear fruit after their kind. They bear fruit after their kind. Leaders affect their followers.

16:31 Look at it in the case of King Jerobo which we have understood already in first kings. Yeah. King Jeroban. We see it in first kings 12 verse 25 to 30. First kings 12:2 saying then Jeroboam built Sheckchim in Mount Ephraim and dwelt therein and went out from then and built penuel.

17:19 And Jerobam said in his heart, "Now shall the kingdom return to the house of David, if these people go up to do sacrifice in the house of the Lord of Jerusalem, then shall the heart of these people turn again unto their Lord, even unto Rahobam, king of Judah, and they shall kill me, and go again to Rehobam, king of Judah." where upon the king took counsel and met two calves of gold and said unto them, it is too much for you to go up to Jerusalem,

18:04 behold thy gods, oh Israel, which brought thee up out of the land of Egypt. And he set the one in battle, and the other put he in D. And this thing became a sin. For the people went to worship before the one, even unto D. He made an house of high places, and made priests of the lowest of the people, which were not of the sons of Levi. Now, and Jeroboam ordained a feast in the eighth month on the 15th day of the month like unto the feast that is in Judah and he offered upon the

18:52 altar. So did he in Bethl sacrificing unto the calves that he had made and he placed in Bethl the priests of the high places which he had made. So can you see Jeroboam came to meet a people that used to go to Jerusalem to offer unto God the offerings and sacrifices he demanded of them. This they had been doing all this while throughout the reign of David,

19:38 the reign of Solomon. Now Geroban came and said, "No, I won't allow these people to go to Jerusalem." And he made molting calves gods and said unto the children of Israel, these be thy gods, oh Israel, that brought you from Egypt. He put one in D, put the other in better. Don't go to Jerusalem again. Who was of understanding among them? That's no, this is not the commandment of God. It is written, Jerusalem shall be the place we shall go for

20:23 worship. The kings before you establish Jerusalem as instructed by God. Who did that? Rather, the people went after him. The people went after Jeroboam to offer unto idols without questioning him. without questioning him. So these pastors, these leaders, whatever they formulate for their congregation, the congregation will follow you. I suppose if you were under such a

21:10 man, you would follow him because keep your heart with all diligence. This heart can be deceived. Don't you see it in women? A man married a woman and is enjoying with her husband. But another man came and said, "I will take you to America." He say, "Is that so? You mean you will take me to America?" He said, "Yes." "Will you follow me? I will follow." What happened to your husband that you got married to? Be careful. The heart can be deceived. Keep it with all

21:56 diligence. So you will follow this man. What about others that are following already? Are they not educated men? Have they not a copy of the Bible? Have they not testimonies to share that they know God? But why are they in wrong places? Were they deceived into walking barefooted on the street upon the road in hot sun? Where they deceived? Keep your heart. But I say there is exception. exception. See what scripture says for the few exception.

22:41 Yes. What is it? The spiritual state of church members is determined by the spiritual state of the leader. Except except there's an exception. Yes. The exception speaks about a people that did not follow him in 2 Chronicles 11 verse 15-16. 2 Chronicles chapter 11

23:27 verse 15- 16. And he Jerobo went down now ordained him priests for the high places and for the devils and for the calves which he had made. And after them, out of all the tribes of Israel, such as set their hearts to seek the Lord God of Israel came to Jerusalem to sacrifice unto the Lord God of their fathers, except sincere people. If true people who are of God are find themselves under those people, corrupt,

24:12 idolattors, demonic leaders, if they find themselves there, they will remove themselves and go to where they can find God. They will remove themselves. It was said of one of the bishops in Nigeria, Bin City that he used to preach against the palming of the hair, this worldly hairdo. But he went to America for visit program whatever. When he came back, he changed the matter. You can pal.

25:00 You can wear your jewelry. You can do this. Nothing is wrong. What a celebration. People followed everybody. Let's go. Were you not doing this thing with understanding? Were you not sincerely serving God with conviction and evidence? How is it then that because your leader has changed, you just followed? No, there are people that know their God.

25:45 They have got him in full understanding. They know the principles of righteousness. They know the rewards of righteousness. They know the experience of holiness. They know the rewards of holiness. They know the hope that is waiting for the holy people. These ones will withdraw from such assembly and look for assembly where there is righteousness or even start one to maintain the righteousness of God. This is the exception and they are very few.

26:33 See verse 16 of chapter 11. And after them, out of all the tribes of Israel, the 10 tribes that were under Jeroboam, such as set their hearts to seek the Lord God of Israel, came to Jerusalem because they had been coming there. They left the places and came to Jerusalem to sacrifice unto the Lord God of their fathers. Except again those maybe who are under such persons corrupt pastors that are there for

27:19 missionary work for evangelism to save some but as of their spiritual nourishment they get it from somewhere. Those who appe in hard currency do not know about the fluctuation of the national currency because the hard currency is always above it. We are paid in dollars. We are paid in pounds. Although we're working with you in Nigeria, in this country where you use your money, the hard currency, you know how

28:06 superior. So we don't bother about whatever is happening in your money. In fact, if your money is getting low, we get up with our value. The value of the one we collect is going higher. So you must have righteousness from somewhere. You must be connected to another ministry where righteousness is taught. You only go to the corrupt place to discharge it there to see if you could save some. Except like that. Except like that. Again another

28:52 exception as the Bible tells us in Ezekiel chapter 18 from verse 14. Ezekiel chapter 18 from verse 14 it says now lo if he begates a son that seeth all his father's sins which he have done and consider it and doeth not such thing such lie that have not eaten upon the mountains Neither had lifted up his eyes to the idols of the house of Israel, had not

29:38 defiled his neighbor's wife, neither had oppressed any, had not withholding the pledge, neither had spoiled by violence, but had given his prayer to the hungry, and had covered the naked with a garment, that had taken off his hand from the poor, that had not received usery nor increase, had executed my judgments, had walked in my statutes, he shall not die for the iniquity of his father, he shall surely live. Can you see? Except under such a man, you reject what he is doing. You reject it

30:25 and you walk contrary to what they're saying there. you walk contrary to the teachings they given there of course then you must have your source where you are getting the correct thing as I have said is there you can be free from the corruption in that place you can be free you will not perish with those people you will live you will get eternal life your presence there is to draw people out of that place to the Lord and teach them different things. Teach them the truth. The materials you are sharing among them are materials of truth.

31:12 So in that case you will be free otherwise it is a law. When the pastor backslides and begin to speak as he wants others will backslide with him and follow him on. Look at the story again in the case of Rehoboam in 2 Chronicles chapter 12 from verse one to verse 5. And it came to pass when Rehob had established the kingdom and have strengthened himself, he forsook the law of the Lord and all Israel with him. I'm

32:01 telling you this thing. The effect a leader has over members. The effect I suffered this in deeper life. As long as the general superintendent and said I don't want that book get out from this place. All the members say amen. We don't want we don't want get it. that we get away is the same talk now all over the palace with exception of very few effect of a leader over the members that which he dislikes

32:47 all others who are under him. No, no, no, no. It's not good. It's not good. It's not good. We don't like it. We don't like it. Why? Our leader has said no. But have you examined it for yourself? Only very few will want to examine this thing for themselves. Only very few. Otherwise the majority will say what our leader has reject more than him that I can come and be examining whether it is true or not. Never. What my leader rejects, I reject. And they think it is righteousness.

33:35 See how leadership affects the people. See how leadership. But Paul said something concerning what you should do as one under leadership in first Corinthians. What you should do as a person under leadership. 1 Corinthians chapter 10 verse1 15. 1 Corinthians chapter 10 verse1 15. I speak as to wise men. Judge ye what I say.

34:22 Don't say I am a leader. Whatever I say is correct. Are you not wise? Can you not read the word for yourself? Don't you know God for yourself? The prophet should speak by two and must by three and let the other judge. Let another judge. Beloved, believe not all spirits, but try the spirits whether they be of God. Otherwise, this automatic influence of leadership over members is not the requirement of God. Yes. But what about leaders that are

35:08 true? Is Paul not a true leader? Who is calling you to judge his words? So that you should have a deeper conviction of his words and never turn from it tomorrow and say by the way they the weights of men. That's what some people do. They turn from the weights of true leaders tomorrow and say by the way it was a man that spoke them. If you had judged them by scripture, if you had taken them to God and received personal conviction, you couldn't have backlated later on. So go back to 2 Chronicles chapter 12, read it again in verse one. And it came to pass

35:55 when the hobo had established had established the kingdom and had strengthened himself, he forsook the law of the Lord and all Israel with him. Ah, Israel, are some of you older than Rahobo? Didn't some of you know the Lord before your hobo? What's the problem? That because Jehovah stopped walking in righteousness, you also stopped walking. Come, is your leader greater than God?

36:41 That's the question. Are you following leader or you are following God? I remember God. I told you when we were in Kenya which year was that I don't know whether 2015 for mission the Lord came there with an angel he met us he was talking with me he said I am from neighboring countries preparing where you will go to I went to a man who also showed himself that he was serving me. But this man preached himself

37:31 and drew attention to himself. And I told him, "Preach me, direct the people to me." And the man answered me and said, "If I preach you a direct attention to you, what about myself?" Uh-uh. My angel was provoked and wanted to smite him dead. I said, "Don't do it." So in the revelation, I was telling him, "God, you mean a man did that? As for me, I will direct attention to you." He said my son

38:18 don't don't bother. Some will be come directing their attention to you. But when they come to you directing attention, redirect them to me because man has that problem of sticking to his leader to the point of not knowing God but his leader. But when they come, direct them to me. I thought that they will exalt you, direct come to you. They will come. But direct them to me when they come. The waters that flow to this camp are

39:05 directed to where they will go and enter the sea. You hear? Simple. Let it rain and let water pour down here. Pathways are created for them to join themselves and move to the sea. That's the ultimate destination. God is our ultimate destination. All that love me go to God. All that appreciate me go to God. Look to God. It came from him. But is it all leaders? No. Is it all congregation? No. They follow the

39:52 leader. What the leader says is final. Good. Oba is final. The children of Raika. Our fathers said we should not drink wine. Neither should we plant vineyard. Even when they were brought to the temple and given wine to drink, they said no, we can't drink it. Wine is a good thing. Wine maketh a man Mary, drink wine. He said never. What happened? Is it against the law of God? No, it's against the law of our father. For he told us that we should drink no wine, nor strong. That is it.

40:37 Even the house of God could not change them. Brother, set your heart on God. Sister, set your heart on God. Leader, lead the people to God. Now, we're going to look at another case. It is the case of Jehoeda, the high priest. This man maintained the children of Israel in righteousness all his days. It was he that made Jewish king over Israel when he was 6 years.

41:25 What happened? Atalia, the daughter of Ahab and Jezebel, took over the kingdom for about six years. killed all the seat royals. Every any man that would have been succeeded make a child of David, he killed them all. But Jehoad the high priest took Jews when he was 2 years old and hit him in the temple. Was he two years old then? and nourished him. Italia didn't know until Jas okay

42:12 until Jewish was six. Maybe he took Jewish at at the age of one because Atalia maybe rule for six years. Then he now took over the kingdom Jehoed and organized the date of Italia. He she was killed. At the time he was bringing Jewish to be king at 6 years. Atalia when Jews was s was meant to sit as a king. At Italia said this is treason. This is treason. He said, "Lay hand upon her. Clear her off." And he began to supervise the kingdom in

42:59 righteousness as a king. Actually, he was directly ruling. heart under the name of the boy until this boy grew up following the righteousness and righteous ways Jeho taught him. Look at it in 2 Chronicles 2 Chronicles chapter 24 from verse one. Jewish was 7 years old when he began to reign.

43:45 He was 7 years old. When he began to reign and he reigned 40 years in Jerusalem. His mother's name also was Ziah of Beeth. and Jewels did that which was right in the sight of the Lord all the days of Jehoeda the priest. As long as Jehovah lived righteous, Jeash and all the people of Israel maintained righteousness

44:32 because the leader, the pastor was righteous. Can you see? Let him leader be righteous. The congregation will behave like him. Many in the congregation will behave like him because there will be judgment for sinners. You will come there. You will come there and see people behaving well. Two people have spoken to me. A friend of mine, an overseer in deeper life with me, but now he's on his own,

45:19 not in deeper life anymore, came to this camp after how many years. Has he ever come here? Maybe he came once many years ago. It's luckily after seven years. When he came and saw how the camp was, he said, "God is here." As he was seeing this and interacting with the people all through as and I eventually saw him off, he said, "Hey, all your workers are well trained. They are humble. They are loving. They are wonderful." Ah,

46:06 amen. Yes. Why wouldn't my workers be like this? They know that I will not spare. Praise the Lord. This is my character. Whether by joy or by sorrow, by love or by cry or by whatever, they must believe this lie. And people who are from outside didn't know that some is by force. That others willingly, others it is by false. Why? The righteous man, the humble man is their leader. Everybody wants to be like him. Who will

46:51 come to say you'll be even different from daddy? Who want to hear that? No. And another person who was this person all these thing I'm saying should be within one month. I said wonderful. I said God these people that I'm rebuking. So some people are telling me they behaving wonderful. This is wonderful. Amen. Praise the Lord. The people followed Jehoeda. Jews followed Jehoeda in righteousness. The spiritual state of members of a congregation

47:36 is determined by the spiritual state of their leader. Except now we're seeing some exception here. These people remain righteous as Jehoeda behaving well. But what happened? Verse 17 of chapter 24 of 2 Chronicles. It goes now 17 and 18 after the date of Jehoeda came the princes of Judah and made obesence to the king. Then the king hearkened unto them, and they left the house of the

48:23 Lord God of their fathers, and served Groves and idols, and rot came upon Judah and Jerusalem for this trespass. So this remains except the dead of the visioner. Yes, Jehoed that died and the people turn off. That's what I'm saying. This lock of wood, the lock of woods was inside fire, but it was not really dry.

49:10 So with all the burning of the fire, it didn't catch fire. So that when you remove it from fire, there was no longer fire on it. Why? It was not dry when it was in the fire. Otherwise, what happens? This is the case of a church founder, righteous church founder, visionary church founder who founded the church on righteousness,

49:56 on the fear of God, on holiness. No, you can't wear earrings here. No, no, no, no, no, no, no. It's idolatrous. It's worthlessness. You can't put on chain. You can't put on rings. Call it marriage ring or whatever you call it. No, it is jewelry and your hands should be clean. So it means you lift up holy hands without rings. What are those rings standing for? Did I give you? Did I command it? Did you see it in the apostles of Christ? Did you see it in Jesus? All those things were removed right from the mountain of Sai Mount Hore. The Lord commanded them to be taken away.

50:44 And no righteous man are done in that way anymore. So get those things out. You will see this thing practical. How should women wear trousers here? Never. You can't wear trousers of as they call a pant. You can't do it here. It's a man's dress. It's exposed. It exposes your frontal, the sensitive frontal or your sensitive front to affecting the minds of men, THE EYES OF ME. GET THOSE THINGS OFF. Don't pollute this place. You will see righteousness and everybody will follow it.

51:30 But when that man dies and another comes up who doesn't have this vision, everybody goes see these people that the princes that started the kingdom, they were older than Josiah. They knew Jehoidah, the high priest. They had they fought the battle along with Jehoa against Atalia daughter of Jezebel and had lived for all these years 20 something years. Immediately this man died. What's

52:15 happening to these people? The church is gone. Now you hear when the original founder dies, righteousness that came by him will also die. That is it. The righteousness that came by him will also die. The same thing is repeated in chapter 26 of 2 Chronicles. I read from verse one. Yes to verse

53:00 5. He go 2 Chronicles chapter 26. Then all the people of Judah took Oziah who was 16 years old and made him king in the room of his father Amaziah. He built a lot and restored it to Judah. After that the king slept with his fathers. 16 years old was Uzziah. when he began to reign and he reigned 52 years in Jerusalem. His mother's name also was Jacolia of Jerusalem. And he did that which was right in the sight of the Lord according to all that his father and Masiah did. Why?

53:48 Because verse 5 says, "And he sought God in the days of Zakaria, who had understanding in the visions of God, and as long as he sought the Lord, God made him to prosper." There was a man of vision, vision of righteousness and holiness. There was a man of vision and revelations that God would speak through him to the people that God will show him matters about the nation, about the king, about what? Zakaria, a mentor of Hosea.

54:37 Zakaria, a mentor of Hosiah. And that made Oziah to serve the Lord and do what was right. AND THE LORD WAS blessing him. THE LORD WAS BLESSING HIM. The Bible says verse 16, but can you see? B when he was strong, his heart was lifted up to his destruction, for he transgressed against the Lord his God.

55:22 That's matter. Sure, this man must also have died. Zakaria must have died. So he had his own liberty to live as he wants. You can see pastors that are under pastor being under the pastor, the visionary man, the righteous overseer, superintendent, bishop or whatever you call them. Being under such a leader, a mentor,

56:10 they preached the message rightly. They preached the message the doctrines. They followed them correctly because they were hearing from him and wanted to prove to him we are loyalists. We're just obediently. But when they come out of his control, he's no more there. were no more under him. They go to preach their own. You will see error. You will see clear wickedness in the ministry. You will see clear

56:57 sins, clear demonism in the preaching. How did it happen? No, that time I was under Jehoa. That time I was under Zakaria. I was handling following his vision. But now I am my own. I am on my own. Leave me. Who is going to judge me? I will do what has been in my heart. I will do. If the people the general superintendent of deeper life will really study holiness movement and know

57:43 that the doctrines they uphold in deeper life are exactly what we uphold here and explain more clearly for people to understand and that the only difference is that we believe in prophecy, we believe in revelation that God can speak to people in our day because Jesus is the same yesterday, today and forever. If he spoke to people, he does speak to people now and will yet speak to people. If he knows that the same preaching

58:30 is handled here, he will appreciate it that God ordained this work because can they point out another person that came out of deeper life and preach same doctrine with more clarity and more emphasis and great force. Can they find it? Just God is here. Otherwise many after they come out they say we are delivered from bondage. We had been under bondage. So we are free now to preach our own the

59:15 way we see it. Look at the people here. Oziah, abandon the doctrines of Zachariah. So I'm saying this thing is telling you the character of churches, giving you understanding. Yeah. Giving you understanding. Hence believers in the assemblies of backsleading ministers must move out of their control to where they can find the true worship of God. in 2 Timothy

1:00:01 chapter 2 verse 22. 2 Timothy chapter 2 verse 22 it goes on saying flee also youthful losses but follow righteousness faith charity, peace with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart. He that walketh with wise men shall be wise. Don't see politics in this matter. You can even be the pastor yourself. You are under a denomination that is

1:00:47 backsliding. You want righteousness. Separate from there and go to a congregation where righteousness is preached, truth is preached, holiness is exhibited for your life. for your life. That is it. Follow righteousness. Don't make the matter a political matter. Yes. If I leave now, some people will be crying. They say, "Why did I leave them?" Who in hell is inviting you to come to hell? And you say, "Okay, I'm coming because of you. Actually, I wouldn't have come to hell, but because I saw how much you are crying that I should come, I will come there for fellowship." Who Who is Who is that?

1:01:33 You want to save yourself? Are you going to be hearing the voice of people in hell that are inviting you? I dreamed I saw my grandmother in hell and he was saying, "My son, when will you come? I'm waiting for you." Will you share that dream to another person? That is what we're saying. Live to righteousness. If you have anything to help them, help yourself first. Save yourself first. Don't turn into politics. Is my tribal church is the church of my uncle. Don't. That is what the word of God is telling

1:02:22 you. Seek spiritual nourishment from outside your congregation. In case you have conviction to be there and help some then be connected to a place like holiness revival movement non denominational. We are raised to train, motivate, enjoy, enlighten and impart righteousness to people of different churches in so that you can carry it to your congregation and do likewise in their lives. If they don't want you by persecution, move to another congregation. That's evangelism.

1:03:09 That is our aim. So we are viable for your youth to become a member and walk here. And all of you who are suffering persecution there, they don't want you. If you are sincere and true, we want you. If they finally say you should leave, we are for you. Welcoming you and we will welcome you with praes and with trumpets and with rejubilation. that one of us who didn't have enough time to walk among us has been sent by God to come fully for the work of God among us. We will be separate celebrating. For when must you remain in darkness and perish.

1:03:55 So that's the world. That is the world. That is the world. So let's understand it. Now I want to let you know something. Do you now understand why the Bible tells us to pray for our leader? The enemy is fighting in fighting against God's people. He aims at the leader to fight Christianity. The devil aimed at Jesus, brought him out of this world. Then his message will

1:04:43 be empty. His message will become empty. Nothing will be there. His followers will scatter. That's where they aiming. Their battle is against the leader. You may not be suffering as the leader. Were they persecuting the disciples? Were they persecuting the disciples? Were they not on Jesus? Did you hear that? They carried the disciples and beat any one of them. No. Attention was on Jesus. Look at it in Acts of Apostles chapter 5. verse 34.

1:05:33 From verse 34 to verse to verse 40. Then stood there up one in the church, in the council, a Pharisee named Gamalia, a doctor of the Lord, had in reputation among all the people, and commanded to put the apostles forth a little space, and said unto them, Ye men of Israel, take it to yourselves what ye intend to do as touching these ones. For before these days rose up, boasting himself to be somebody, to whom a number of men, about 400, joined themselves, who was slain,

1:06:21 and all as many as obeyed him were scattered and brought to not. After this man rose up Judas of Galilee in the days of the tax, and he drew away much people after him, he also perished, and all even as many as obeyed him were dispersed. And now I say unto you, refrain from these men, and let them alone. For if this council or this work be of men, it will come to not now that the founder Jesus has died. But if it be of God, ye cannot overthrow it, lest happily ye be found even to

1:07:06 fight against God. See this now. They aimed at the shepherd. They aimed at the shepherd. They killed the man, the leader, and the people scattered. So, devil is aiming at your pastor. Devil is aiming at your international director to get him. If he gets him, you will scatter. It's a formula. Look at it in Zechariah chapter 13 verse 7. Zechariah

1:07:53 chapter 13 verse 7. Yes. The Bible tells us here saying, "Awake, I wait, oh sword, against my shepherd, and against the man that is my failure, seeth the Lord of hosts. Smite the shepherd, and the sheep shall be scattered." That is it. The enemy is fighting your pastor. You say, "Hey, I don't know what's happened to our pastor. Everybody is against him. Maybe he has really offended them. Maybe he has really

1:08:41 cheated them. Maybe there's a sin these people are seeing that we do not know. A dog does not b for nothing. Many dogs back for nothing. You are aware." So you begin to say like that the law of Satan who is fighting righteousness says get the driver of that vehicle arrested. All passengers shall come down and sit down. Journey shall not continue. Get the leader the pastor. get him affected. The church shall dance his way.

1:09:27 That's why you see backslide battle against the pastor. What seeth them the king of Syria he said fight no man neither great nor small fight just fight the king of Israel only Ahab. So when they saw Jehoshaphat in a parl in the apparel of kingship, they ran after him. He shouted, "I am Jehoshaphat. I'm not Ahab. Hey, God help me." The Oh, it's not Ahab. It's not a Please leave him. Leave him. Leave him. Then a man shot a ball, not even aiming at Ahab. It went and got Ahab.

1:10:13 And they all came to know Ahab had been affected. And Ahab died. They blew the trumpet. The battle is over. All we needed was Ahab. As for coming in among the people is a simple thing. So they blew the trumpet. Every man the battle is over. Battle is over. You can go back. Battle is over. The man we are looking for we have gotten. What say Golia? Am I not a Philistine and ye are Israelite? choose among you a man that shall face me in the battle. If I kill him, you the rest of you surrender.

1:10:59 And if he kills me, all Philistines will surrender. There is the head, the main man, the man that should be straightened, strengthened in the battle. If that man is attacked and he falls, the rest of you shall go. Are churches not cleared out by the devil? Did not Satan even bas about Adam people how he silenced them starting from the leader. That is it. Now when they are fighting, are you joining them to fight me

1:11:46 or to fight us who are doing this work? Do you know that you're fighting yourself? Do you know they're doing harm to yourself? Because they come to you supply as information. You're supplying information so they can use as weapon for the battle. So they can win over your leader. Then you're gone. Then there's no heaven for you. Because it is as he stands that you live. As it stands in righteousness, you are incorporated. That is the truth about it. The truth.

1:12:33 Again, Moses was bringing people from from Egypt. The Amalachi didn't want that mission to the children of of the children of Israel to succeed. They came to attack them in the wilderness. Why? The commission given to Moses should not succeed. Moses told Joshua, "Choose me and go to face the Amalacha. I am going to climb the mountain to support you, to intercede for you in the battle. Go." And Joshua went and battle began with Amalachite. Moses in the mountain

1:13:20 raised up his hands, two hands to God. God show your power. God show your glory. God send your angels. God do it. Cause this people to be defeated. But as a man, his hands became weak. He had to bring them down to rest a while. But they noticed that as he brought down the hand, Israel were running back, running back because the the Amalachites were pursuing them. Uh, he quickly raised up his hand. Israel started pursuing Amalachites. It was determined by his hands. But he's a man. He's a man.

1:14:05 When Aaron and her saw this, we must help Moses that his hands should remain steady. So they came roll stones to the two sides, sat upon them so that Moses' hand should be on their shoulder and in this way the hands were up and remained peaceful steady. Joshua finished the battle. Pray for your leaders. Paul said, "Pray for me. Make your prayer steady." That we should fight this battle. Intercede. Why you going to criticism? Why are you looking for trouble? Because

1:14:52 I know they didn't pay me in salary. My money is not complete. Money is not complete. And you going to hell. Which one is more? And they didn't do me well. They cheated me. In fact, in the when the matter came to the pastor, I thought that is it. You were talking about congregations in multitudes that are going to hell if you don't support the pastor and the enemy wins against him. What's wrong with you? Why don't you forget yourself that others also might be saved? That is what we should understand. First of all, supplication, prayers and thanksgiving be met for all men, for

1:15:38 kings and for all who are in authority, including the pastor, the righteous pastor, that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all honesty in Jesus name. That is what God is telling us. Yes, Peter. I'm talking about this exception. When Peter came down to Antioch, he displayed some spiritual weakness that affected the Jews that were with him. Except

1:16:25 Paul apostle who knew God for himself and withtood Peter to serve the situation. Look at it in Galatians chapter 2 I read verse 11. But when Peter was come to Antio I withtood him to the face because he was to be blamed. For before that Satan came from James, he did eat with the Gentiles. But when they were come, he withdrew and separated himself, fearing them which were of the circumcision. And the other Jews dissembled likewise with him in so much that Barnabas

1:17:11 also was carried away with the dissimulation. Peter the spiritual hate of the apostles and of the church at that time. See him displaying spiritual weakness. Everybody followed him. The gospel is that is it not you Peter that went to Cornelius to eat in his house and you came and reported that it was the Holy Ghost that led you and the people celebrated and said, "Oh, God has appeared to the Gentiles also and have made them of equality with us because the Holy Ghost fell upon them as fell upon us." Peter, what happened? You

1:17:57 came now to Antio Gentiles through your ministry. Paul was just developing it Paul because God told Paul the same thing. And you came eating and rejoicing with the Gentiles. You saw people come down from Jerusalem from James the brother of Jesus. And you say, "Ah, let James not hear me. Let James not hear." Who is James? Is he the leader of the church? was even a believer when Jesus was alive. What is wrong with you? But because Peter the leader, apostle of the church, upon this rock I build my church. Thou

1:18:43 art Peter. And many people consider that yes, he's the rock. No, the rock is Christ himself. Anyway, but Peter was exalted by God, by Jesus. How did you come now to come to reject the Gentiles that God told you clearly he had accepted into the beloved into the kingdom. Now because you are the leader all the Jews have followed you. They have refused to eat with the Gentiles and Gentile believers. And now the believers are confused. Are we not accepted? Are we not accepted? We thought that Peter will come and be happy, but Peter is

1:19:28 separating from us now. Paul stood up and said, "Peter, what's wrong with you? What is wrong with you? Our fathers were not able to keep this law of circumcision. Were we able ourselves that you will come and say these Gentiles who are born again washed with the blood of Jesus and not worthy of your fellowship because of the law of commandment. Why are you able to keep the commandment? He solved that problem and delivered the situation. Peter recover. I say the spiritual state of a leader determines the spiritual state of those around him. Except there is Paul among

1:20:15 them. That's the answer. Except there is the like of Paul the apostle among them. I know Jesus myself. I know the world. That you are a leader does not mean you have done all of it. I know the truth myself. You are acting in error. You're speaking in error. You must stop that. Otherwise, God will be angry with you. And Peter being a wise man, a word is enough for the wise. He repented. Otherwise, the gospel of Jesus would have been affected internationally and forever. The Christian Jews and Christian in the

1:21:02 gentile among the Gentiles would have been different people. But now Christianity is by faith whether it is of the Jews or of the Gentiles. People who are not Jews were all one in Christ. And all shall have the building wall of partition has been broken down through the sacrifice of Christ. So that's it. Now finally a righteous leader in Frances does under him to be righteous except yes in first Thessalonians chapter 2 10 first Thessalonians chapter 2 verse 10

1:21:52 are witnesses and God also how holy and justly and unblen came. We behaved ourselves among you that believed. Paul said, "I live in all good conscience before GOD UNTIL THIS DAY. HERE IN do I exercise myself to have always a conscience void of offense toward God and toward me. I am holy." But here he said it's we that are holy. He had infringed others those around him. BE FOLLOWERS OF ME as I am follower of

1:22:37 the Lord Jesus. Brethren follow me as I follow Christ. Righteous man. He influenced the life of many to walk with him in holiness except what is this exception? Those who resigned from following him as demons. 2 Timothy chapter 4 verse 10. For demons have forsaken me, having loved this present world. People of the like of demons

1:23:25 that love the present world will leave me and not take my teaching, my doctrine. It will be too hard for them. People that love the flesh, it will be too hard for them. People that can never submit to Jesus, it will be too hard to follow my doctrine, to follow my lifestyle. It will be too hard for them. Otherwise, follow me as I follow Christ. There are people that will follow me as I follow Christ. As people follow backs leading leaders, there are people that follow righteous leaders. And Paul said, "Ye are witness and God

1:24:14 also." How holy, justly, and unblenmishly we we behaved. We not only I Paul now have influenced many. I have influenced many. My teaching has made many perfect. My teaching has made many holy. So many many many. Are you one of them that my teaching and lifestyle has influenced? Then I have betroded thee

1:25:00 to Christ. Follow him as I follow him. Let's follow Jesus. Let's follow Jesus. Hypothesis two. The spiritual state of church members are influenced yet. Oh, depends on the spiritual state of the church leader. You are supposed to be righteous and holy as I am.

1:25:46 Humble, gentle as I am, except you are a hypocrite. Except even you are fighting the leadership. Ask for the grace to be like your pastor in righteousness and holiness. Let's rise up upon our feet and go before the Lord. Thank him. These words are true. They are heavy. Let God lay them upon your heart. Appreciate that you are in holiness revival movement where righteousness
