00:00:02.340 --> 00:00:04.848
The word Christian is spelled
2
00:00:04.848 --> 00:00:08.080
C-H-R-I-S-T
3
00:00:08.080 --> 00:00:09.830
Christ.
4
00:00:09.830 --> 00:00:14.350
I-A-N, in.
5
00:00:14.350 --> 00:00:17.640
Christ in you.
6
00:00:17.640 --> 00:00:20.840
Living his own life through you
7
00:00:20.840 --> 00:00:24.846
without any help or assistance from you.
8
00:00:24.846 --> 00:00:27.770
Because Jesus Christ does not need your help
9
00:00:27.770 --> 00:00:29.640
to be Jesus Christ.
10
00:00:29.640 --> 00:00:33.461
All he needs is your availability.
11
00:00:33.461 --> 00:00:35.660
And what a difference, because soon I learned
12
00:00:35.660 --> 00:00:38.120
that instead of me breaking my neck trying to be good
13
00:00:38.120 --> 00:00:39.320
and trying to be holy
14
00:00:39.320 --> 00:00:40.510
and trying to get power
15
00:00:40.510 --> 00:00:43.150
and trying to overcome my identity crisis
16
00:00:43.150 --> 00:00:44.480
and get rid of my sin,
17
00:00:44.480 --> 00:00:46.770
I soon found out that when Jesus Christ
18
00:00:46.770 --> 00:00:48.280
was nailed to the cross
19
00:00:48.280 --> 00:00:50.410
and when He rose again from the dead,
20
00:00:50.410 --> 00:00:55.396
He rose again from the dead to live a new life in me.
21
00:00:56.500 --> 00:00:58.030
You know it's like,
22
00:00:58.030 --> 00:01:00.860
it's like taking a bunch of small, green peas.
23
00:01:00.860 --> 00:01:03.135
Puttin' 'em out on the table
24
00:01:03.135 --> 00:01:06.460
and then deciding that you wanna have split pea soup.
25
00:01:06.460 --> 00:01:10.946
So you get yourself an ax to split the peas, and go.
26
00:01:10.946 --> 00:01:13.980
(exhales)
27
00:01:13.980 --> 00:01:16.774
Hey God, there's go to be an easier way.
28
00:01:16.774 --> 00:01:17.607
(grunts)
29
00:01:17.607 --> 00:01:20.533
And God says there is, why don't you quit trying.
30
00:01:20.533 --> 00:01:21.960
Because what most people do
31
00:01:21.960 --> 00:01:24.120
is they look at their sins and they say,
32
00:01:24.120 --> 00:01:25.630
ah, I got hate in my life.
33
00:01:25.630 --> 00:01:27.330
And they go out there to chop away at that hate.
34
00:01:27.330 --> 00:01:29.370
And they bang and bang and bang,
35
00:01:29.370 --> 00:01:31.580
and after about five years they get rid of the hate
36
00:01:31.580 --> 00:01:33.414
only to discover they have jealousy.
37
00:01:33.414 --> 00:01:34.247
(inhales)
38
00:01:34.247 --> 00:01:36.785
And they go over here and bang away at the jealousy.
39
00:01:36.785 --> 00:01:37.618
(groans)
40
00:01:37.618 --> 00:01:39.300
Only to discover that they envy.
41
00:01:39.300 --> 00:01:40.150
Oh my!
42
00:01:40.150 --> 00:01:41.700
And they go through their whole lives
43
00:01:41.700 --> 00:01:43.650
chopping away at sins in their lives,
44
00:01:43.650 --> 00:01:48.637
wearing themselves out.
45
00:01:49.570 --> 00:01:50.800
Or the folks who say, you know
46
00:01:50.800 --> 00:01:53.770
I'm trying real hard to crucify myself
47
00:01:53.770 --> 00:01:56.188
so I can be Christian.
48
00:01:56.188 --> 00:01:59.438
You ever try to crucify yourself?
49
00:01:59.438 --> 00:02:00.620
Try it.
50
00:02:00.620 --> 00:02:04.278
Imagine that there's a cross behind you, okay?
51
00:02:04.278 --> 00:02:06.100
And I got some big spikes and a hammer,
52
00:02:06.100 --> 00:02:09.000
and I'm gonna crucify myself,
53
00:02:09.000 --> 00:02:11.750
so I take the, put my hand up on the cross,
54
00:02:11.750 --> 00:02:14.350
and I take the spikes and I run my hand into it,
55
00:02:14.350 --> 00:02:17.410
and then I nail the spikes into my left hand,
56
00:02:17.410 --> 00:02:22.293
so now I have my left hand nailed to the cross.
57
00:02:28.828 --> 00:02:30.600
Can you explain to me
58
00:02:30.600 --> 00:02:33.350
how with my left hand nailed to the cross,
59
00:02:33.350 --> 00:02:36.075
I'm gonna get the right one up there,
60
00:02:36.075 --> 00:02:38.843
or how I'm gonna nail my feet?
61
00:02:38.843 --> 00:02:42.350
You see, of all the forms of suicide that you can commit,
62
00:02:42.350 --> 00:02:45.486
you can not crucify yourself.
63
00:02:45.486 --> 00:02:48.700
You can shoot yourself, stab yourself, poison yourself,
64
00:02:48.700 --> 00:02:50.780
drown yourself, and with some ingenuity
65
00:02:50.780 --> 00:02:52.770
you can hang yourself.
66
00:02:52.770 --> 00:02:55.950
You can not crucify yourself.
67
00:02:55.950 --> 00:02:59.610
Crucifixion must be performed by an outside party.
68
00:02:59.610 --> 00:03:00.760
Nineteen hundred years ago
69
00:03:00.760 --> 00:03:03.020
when Jesus was nailed to the cross,
70
00:03:03.020 --> 00:03:05.200
the Bible says he took your sin and my sin
71
00:03:05.200 --> 00:03:07.360
and put in up on the cross with him,
72
00:03:07.360 --> 00:03:09.450
so that when Jesus Christ was nailed to the cross
73
00:03:09.450 --> 00:03:14.450
you and I were too, all of our sins.
74
00:03:15.020 --> 00:03:18.060
And once you understand that, then you're on the way
75
00:03:18.060 --> 00:03:19.650
to solving your identity crisis
76
00:03:19.650 --> 00:03:22.660
because then you understand it is the simple process
77
00:03:22.660 --> 00:03:24.330
of coming to Jesus and saying
78
00:03:24.330 --> 00:03:28.250
Lord, I hereby renounce all rights to myself
79
00:03:28.250 --> 00:03:31.420
and I give you the right to own me, to run my life.
80
00:03:31.420 --> 00:03:33.280
And the Bible says that Jesus Christ then
81
00:03:33.280 --> 00:03:36.108
takes up residence in you.
82
00:03:36.108 --> 00:03:40.120
And begins to fulfill his destiny and his purpose in you,
83
00:03:40.120 --> 00:03:44.045
rather than you trying to be like him.
84
00:03:44.045 --> 00:03:48.700
And it will change the way you pray.
85
00:03:48.700 --> 00:03:53.333
Oh God, Lord, I'm so weak.
86
00:03:53.333 --> 00:03:58.178
Oh Jesus please give me more strength and more power.
87
00:03:58.178 --> 00:03:59.893
Have you every prayed that prayer?
88
00:03:59.893 --> 00:04:02.480
Have you ever asked God for more strength and more power?
89
00:04:02.480 --> 00:04:03.685
Let me see your hand.
90
00:04:03.685 --> 00:04:06.440
You ever prayed that?
91
00:04:06.440 --> 00:04:08.357
That's a dumb prayer.
92
00:04:08.357 --> 00:04:10.695
(congregation laughs)
93
00:04:10.695 --> 00:04:13.237
It's wrong.
94
00:04:13.237 --> 00:04:15.710
Because when Jesus Christ got up out of the grave,
95
00:04:15.710 --> 00:04:20.490
Jesus Christ said all power is given unto me
96
00:04:20.490 --> 00:04:21.323
in Heaven and in Earth.
97
00:04:21.323 --> 00:04:22.720
And Hebrews chapter one says
98
00:04:22.720 --> 00:04:27.673
Jesus Christ upholds all things by the word of His power.
99
00:04:28.840 --> 00:04:31.530
When you invite Jesus Christ to take over your life,
100
00:04:31.530 --> 00:04:35.541
where does Jesus go?
101
00:04:35.541 --> 00:04:37.943
Where does Jesus go?
102
00:04:37.943 --> 00:04:40.128
This is a Black church meeting, you can answer back.
103
00:04:40.128 --> 00:04:43.450
(congregation laughs)
104
00:04:43.450 --> 00:04:44.720
Where does Jesus go.
105
00:04:44.720 --> 00:04:45.553
In your heart.
106
00:04:45.553 --> 00:04:48.700
In you, right, Jesus comes in you.
107
00:04:48.700 --> 00:04:51.268
What else do you have in you?
108
00:04:51.268 --> 00:04:52.210
Power.
109
00:04:52.210 --> 00:04:57.210
So why you praying for more power?
110
00:04:57.620 --> 00:05:02.620
Oh God, Lord, I need more love.
111
00:05:03.250 --> 00:05:07.956
So much hate in my life, oh God, more love. (chuckles)
112
00:05:07.956 --> 00:05:11.862
(congregation laughs)
113
00:05:11.862 --> 00:05:14.570
Another dumb prayer.
114
00:05:14.570 --> 00:05:19.570
God is love, and when you trust Jesus to take over your life
115
00:05:19.760 --> 00:05:21.448
where does God go?
116
00:05:21.448 --> 00:05:22.281
(congregation murmurs)
117
00:05:22.281 --> 00:05:25.103
In you. Therefore what else do you have in you?
118
00:05:25.103 --> 00:05:25.936
Love.
119
00:05:25.936 --> 00:05:30.367
So why you praying for more love?
120
00:05:30.367 --> 00:05:33.363
Oh God, I have such a short fuse.
121
00:05:33.363 --> 00:05:35.900
I keep blowing my stack all the time.
122
00:05:35.900 --> 00:05:37.220
Oh God, patience.
123
00:05:37.220 --> 00:05:42.214
Oh Jesus give me more patience Lord. (giggles)
124
00:05:42.214 --> 00:05:46.614
(congregation laughs)
125
00:05:46.614 --> 00:05:50.040
The Bible says the fruit of the spirit is
126
00:05:50.040 --> 00:05:51.610
patience.
127
00:05:51.610 --> 00:05:54.860
And when you trust Jesus, where does he go?
128
00:05:54.860 --> 00:05:55.693
In you.
129
00:05:55.693 --> 00:05:57.720
Therefore, what else do you have?
130
00:05:57.720 --> 00:05:59.060
Patience.
131
00:05:59.060 --> 00:06:01.870
And so instead of getting up every day and saying
132
00:06:01.870 --> 00:06:05.030
Lord, give me more love and more power and more patience,
133
00:06:05.030 --> 00:06:06.300
you begin the day by saying,
134
00:06:06.300 --> 00:06:09.414
Lord, I thank you for the fact that today you want
135
00:06:09.414 --> 00:06:12.990
me to show love, and you want me to exhibit your power,
136
00:06:12.990 --> 00:06:16.670
and you want me to show strength and patience.
137
00:06:16.670 --> 00:06:18.070
I don't have what it takes,
138
00:06:18.070 --> 00:06:20.700
but I thank you for the fact that you are patience,
139
00:06:20.700 --> 00:06:24.950
and you are strength, and you are love, and you are in me,
140
00:06:24.950 --> 00:06:28.913
so today I am going to trust you
141
00:06:28.913 --> 00:06:33.053
to be my love and my patience and my strength.
142
00:06:33.053 --> 00:06:38.053
And He pulls it off.
143
00:06:38.484 --> 00:06:41.809
And so I gave my life to Him.
144
00:06:41.809 --> 00:06:45.318
I now know who I am.
145
00:06:45.318 --> 00:06:47.790
I am God's son.
146
00:06:47.790 --> 00:06:49.710
I am a member of the Royal Family of God
147
00:06:49.710 --> 00:06:51.510
that puts me in the best family stock
148
00:06:51.510 --> 00:06:54.277
there is in all the world.
149
00:06:54.277 --> 00:06:58.680
I am a member of the Royal Family of God.
150
00:06:58.680 --> 00:07:01.041
I know who I am.
151
00:07:01.041 --> 00:07:03.550
Nobody else has to identify me.
152
00:07:03.550 --> 00:07:05.900
I don't wait for other people to tell me who I am.
153
00:07:05.900 --> 00:07:09.300
I don't need other people to define me.
154
00:07:09.300 --> 00:07:12.520
I define myself by virtue of who God says I am.
155
00:07:12.520 --> 00:07:16.231
I am God's son.
156
00:07:16.231 --> 00:07:19.170
I now know what my responsibility to other people is.
157
00:07:19.170 --> 00:07:21.380
All I ask of people that God
158
00:07:21.380 --> 00:07:23.490
brings me into relationship with,
159
00:07:23.490 --> 00:07:25.400
all I ask of them is that they give me
160
00:07:25.400 --> 00:07:26.760
the privilege to love them,
161
00:07:26.760 --> 00:07:29.880
whether they love me back or not is totally unimportant
162
00:07:29.880 --> 00:07:31.450
because I derive enough love
163
00:07:31.450 --> 00:07:33.630
from my relationship with Jesus Christ
164
00:07:33.630 --> 00:07:38.630
to love them without needing them to love me back.
165
00:07:39.340 --> 00:07:40.920
And the beautiful part about it is
166
00:07:40.920 --> 00:07:44.483
I've got the power now to pull it off.
167
00:07:44.483 --> 00:07:47.710
The life I now live in the flesh
168
00:07:47.710 --> 00:07:50.780
I live by the faith of the Son of God
169
00:07:50.780 --> 00:07:53.620
who gave Himself for me.
170
00:07:53.620 --> 00:07:55.900
That becomes the basis by which God
171
00:07:55.900 --> 00:07:58.680
wants to put together the new community
172
00:07:58.680 --> 00:08:01.782
to shape the world in which we live.
173
00:08:01.782 --> 00:08:03.980
So take people by virtue of their willingness
174
00:08:03.980 --> 00:08:05.940
to renounce all rights to themselves
175
00:08:05.940 --> 00:08:09.005
and hand their lives over to Jesus Christ
176
00:08:09.005 --> 00:08:12.310
to send you into a world that doesn't know who they are,
177
00:08:12.310 --> 00:08:13.650
with you knowing who you are.
178
00:08:13.650 --> 00:08:15.740
In a world that is not together,
179
00:08:15.740 --> 00:08:18.380
God wants to bring together a group of people
180
00:08:18.380 --> 00:08:20.500
who by virtue of their commitment to Christ
181
00:08:20.500 --> 00:08:23.320
will be prepared to lay their lives down for each other
182
00:08:23.320 --> 00:08:25.070
and show the world what it looks like
183
00:08:25.070 --> 00:08:29.781
when people really care.
184
00:08:29.781 --> 00:08:31.380
And then to send us into the world
185
00:08:31.380 --> 00:08:34.200
by the power of God to destroy the works of the Devil,
186
00:08:34.200 --> 00:08:37.470
hunger, poverty, war, violence,
187
00:08:37.470 --> 00:08:42.085
racism, prejudice, bigotry.
188
00:08:42.085 --> 00:08:44.290
And for us together as the people of God
189
00:08:44.290 --> 00:08:46.360
to become the examples that other people
190
00:08:46.360 --> 00:08:48.540
can look at and say,
191
00:08:48.540 --> 00:08:52.183
those people have been with Jesus.
192
00:08:57.470 --> 00:08:59.150
So when Burt Bacharach asks
193
00:08:59.150 --> 00:09:04.150
what's it all about, that's what it's about.
194
00:09:04.460 --> 00:09:06.670
What it's about is that God's got his own agenda,
195
00:09:06.670 --> 00:09:09.653
God's doin' his own thing.
196
00:09:09.653 --> 00:09:12.690
And so now when the guy comes up to me and says,
197
00:09:12.690 --> 00:09:13.760
What's happening Tom?
198
00:09:13.760 --> 00:09:18.068
I say got it together.
199
00:09:18.068 --> 00:09:22.342
Let me close with this illustration and we'll pray.
200
00:09:22.342 --> 00:09:24.760
The old Roman soldiers used to go into battle
201
00:09:24.760 --> 00:09:25.680
but they had a problem
202
00:09:25.680 --> 00:09:29.160
because the gear that they wore didn't fit.
203
00:09:29.160 --> 00:09:32.180
The breastplate was wacky, the helmet was wacky,
204
00:09:32.180 --> 00:09:34.800
and the equipment was loose on the body,
205
00:09:34.800 --> 00:09:36.690
and so the Roman's had to come up with a way
206
00:09:36.690 --> 00:09:40.890
to get the equipment on their body to fit snugly together.
207
00:09:40.890 --> 00:09:45.890
And so the Romans invented the girdle long before Playtex.
208
00:09:46.000 --> 00:09:48.500
And the girdle was worn around the waist,
209
00:09:48.500 --> 00:09:49.797
and it had straps onto it,
210
00:09:49.797 --> 00:09:52.460
and the straps were connected to their equipment,
211
00:09:52.460 --> 00:09:55.630
and then tied at their loins at the center of their body
212
00:09:55.630 --> 00:09:57.870
so that the equipment fit snugly on their bodies
213
00:09:57.870 --> 00:09:59.580
so that they could run into battle,
214
00:09:59.580 --> 00:10:00.650
which is why Paul said
215
00:10:00.650 --> 00:10:02.610
put on the whole armor of God
216
00:10:02.610 --> 00:10:06.766
and have yourself girdled with truth.
217
00:10:06.766 --> 00:10:10.220
Well, you see, you and I are like the Roman soldiers.
218
00:10:10.220 --> 00:10:11.100
We have equipment.
219
00:10:11.100 --> 00:10:14.200
We have mind, body, emotions and spirit,
220
00:10:14.200 --> 00:10:16.160
but they're all going off in different directions.
221
00:10:16.160 --> 00:10:17.550
My body wants to do one thing,
222
00:10:17.550 --> 00:10:19.150
my mind wants to do something else,
223
00:10:19.150 --> 00:10:20.700
my emotions are climbing the wall,
224
00:10:20.700 --> 00:10:21.993
and according to the spirit,
225
00:10:21.993 --> 00:10:23.400
according to the scripture,
226
00:10:23.400 --> 00:10:26.836
my spirit is dead without Christ.
227
00:10:26.836 --> 00:10:28.160
And so God says what you need
228
00:10:28.160 --> 00:10:30.370
is a girdle to bring that together,
229
00:10:30.370 --> 00:10:31.690
and the girdle is the truth.
230
00:10:31.690 --> 00:10:32.523
In other words,
231
00:10:32.523 --> 00:10:33.490
what the Bible is saying is
232
00:10:33.490 --> 00:10:36.590
bring to the center of your being truth
233
00:10:36.590 --> 00:10:39.390
in order to tie your equipment together
234
00:10:39.390 --> 00:10:43.395
so you can be a whole person having it together.
235
00:10:43.395 --> 00:10:46.453
And the question is who is the truth?
236
00:10:46.453 --> 00:10:49.420
That brings us back to Jesus again.
237
00:10:49.420 --> 00:10:54.330
Who says I am the way, truth, light.
238
00:10:55.970 --> 00:10:58.640
And Jesus becomes the person at the center of our lives
239
00:10:58.640 --> 00:11:00.810
that brings our mind, and our body,
240
00:11:00.810 --> 00:11:03.070
and our emotions and our spirit together,
241
00:11:03.070 --> 00:11:06.906
so that we can become a whole person.
242
00:11:06.906 --> 00:11:10.815
And as whole people, to go out into a broken world,
243
00:11:10.815 --> 00:11:15.815
and offer that world the healing of Jesus Christ.
244
00:11:16.250 --> 00:11:18.825
That's what it's about.
245
00:11:18.825 --> 00:11:21.150
And I pray that if you have never put it together
246
00:11:21.150 --> 00:11:24.000
in your life,
247
00:11:24.000 --> 00:11:25.850
that today will begin the day in which you
248
00:11:25.850 --> 00:11:30.850
discover Jesus Christ and let Him own you.
249
00:11:30.900 --> 00:11:34.750
Shall we pray?
250
00:11:34.750 --> 00:11:37.670
Father, we thank you today for the privilege
251
00:11:37.670 --> 00:11:40.406
of meeting together.
252
00:11:40.406 --> 00:11:43.354
We thank you for your word,
253
00:11:43.354 --> 00:11:46.310
and we pray as the result of what you have said to us
254
00:11:46.310 --> 00:11:50.446
that none of us will leave this place the same.
255
00:11:50.446 --> 00:11:52.740
And we pray that you will send us into a world
256
00:11:52.740 --> 00:11:57.720
that's broken and divided and oppressive and violent
257
00:11:57.720 --> 00:12:02.646
and full of war to be your vehicles of peace,
258
00:12:03.810 --> 00:12:06.641
to destroy the works of the Devil,
259
00:12:06.641 --> 00:12:09.190
to the building up of your Kingdom.
260
00:12:09.190 --> 00:12:13.590
We ask it in Jesus' name.

319
00:19:26.550 --> 00:19:28.390
Our Father, we are grateful
320
00:19:31.001 --> 00:19:33.853
for the opportunity to share this time together.
321
00:19:35.700 --> 00:19:39.110
Now we pray that you will send us forth into the world
322
00:19:41.230 --> 00:19:42.993
to be the alternative.
323
00:19:44.230 --> 00:19:47.413
To be the live models of what you are doing.
324
00:19:49.803 --> 00:19:52.030
And we pray that the world will never be the same
325
00:19:52.030 --> 00:19:53.803
because we passed this way.
326
00:19:55.440 --> 00:19:57.033
We ask it in Jesus' name.
327
00:19:58.320 --> 00:19:59.153
Amen.
