WEBVTT 00:00.000 --> 00:04.740 Thank you, Father, for loving us enough to give your son. 00:05.840 --> 00:12.340 Thank you, Father, for wanting us to succeed and be victorious enough you gave us your spirit. 00:13.280 --> 00:20.160 And we are here tonight in gratefulness and thankfulness, asking that, 00:20.300 --> 00:25.900 Lord, you're the master of the church, you just do with this night what you want done, 00:27.500 --> 00:29.680 the way you want to just do your will. 00:29.840 --> 00:33.400 Holy Spirit, lead us into it. In Jesus' name, amen. 00:34.620 --> 00:34.940 Amen. 00:37.080 --> 00:38.900 Well, welcome to the last class. 00:40.340 --> 00:41.160 Here we go. 00:42.320 --> 00:47.340 We got a lot of stuff that we won't get covered, but we're going to try to cover as much of it as we can. 00:48.520 --> 00:52.700 I want to thank you, because this has been a, you know, I didn't expect it to go this long. 00:53.360 --> 00:55.440 And I want to thank you for sticking with it. 00:56.640 --> 01:04.780 You know, we had a core group of people here and we have a core group of people online who have just stuck with this all the way through. 01:05.800 --> 01:10.240 In fact, some of the comments I'm getting is, can't we just keep it going for a while longer? 01:11.860 --> 01:18.080 And it's like, well, my plan is in the fall, Mary's going to do a healing school and she's going to break it up. 01:18.080 --> 01:22.100 She'll start in the fall. She's going to break it up into like six or eight week segments. 01:23.160 --> 01:25.420 And that'll probably go through most of the winter. 01:25.880 --> 01:32.900 Well, some place in there, I'm planning on plugging in like six weeks on demonology. 01:33.600 --> 01:39.240 This has been more about deliverance and getting free, staying free, 01:39.420 --> 01:46.580 but it really hasn't been an in-depth study on demons and what they do and how they act, etc. 01:46.580 --> 01:51.140 That can be helpful to this because it can help us recognize them. 01:52.600 --> 01:59.220 So at some point, I don't know how to go in the fall or early next year, January or something, 01:59.660 --> 02:07.160 we'll come back and we will try to, from scripture, give the absolute best description of demons that we can, 02:07.520 --> 02:10.280 which may help us recognize some things. 02:11.000 --> 02:16.560 It will be a couple of months before I finish the book with all the handouts and stuff we've been doing here in this lack section. 02:17.200 --> 02:19.700 Last section, I will let you know when it's done. 02:23.040 --> 02:25.260 We have a number of topics to cover tonight. 02:25.680 --> 02:28.160 So you might have to hold your questions, write them down. 02:28.720 --> 02:33.780 And I will be giving you a handout if you don't have something, take notes on or whatever, you could write them on that. 02:34.500 --> 02:39.560 But write them down because we're not going to take the time throughout to answer them. 02:39.980 --> 02:43.260 We'll shove all the questions here and anything that comes in from online. 02:43.360 --> 02:45.640 We've had a lot of questions come in from online for tonight. 02:45.640 --> 02:47.600 So that's going to absorb a chunk of time. 02:47.880 --> 02:56.700 But anything that comes in now, and you can still text them to me, 7-6-3-7-4-2-5-4-7-4. 02:56.880 --> 03:00.340 And since you're running to get your paper, I'll give you a second, I'll repeat it. 03:00.940 --> 03:03.340 And you can text them in if you want to. 03:05.240 --> 03:09.300 And we're going to cover what we can and get what we can do. 03:09.420 --> 03:11.840 Now there's a number of topics I know we won't get covered. 03:12.320 --> 03:16.340 So what we're going to do there is I will just list them to you. 03:17.220 --> 03:20.880 So that if you say, well, I wish he'd covered this topic yet. 03:20.940 --> 03:23.420 Well, I want those to come in because I can put them in the book. 03:23.800 --> 03:27.100 But if I already listed it, then you don't have to tell me 03:27.100 --> 03:29.460 or if you have a specific angle on it you won't covered. 03:30.220 --> 03:31.740 All right, are you ready with your pen? 03:32.320 --> 03:36.740 7-6-3-7-4-2-5-4-7-4. 03:37.280 --> 03:40.360 If you get a question during the evening, since this is the last class, 03:40.360 --> 03:41.820 go ahead and text it in right away. 03:42.220 --> 03:44.400 And we'll see if we get to it at the end. 03:45.080 --> 03:47.540 I will stay as late as these people are willing to stay. 03:48.800 --> 03:50.300 We might be done by 9. 03:50.620 --> 03:52.620 I don't know how long they're willing to stay. 03:52.920 --> 03:54.600 So we'll see how this goes. 03:56.000 --> 03:58.560 There's one thing I feel like I need to say, 03:58.960 --> 04:03.360 and this is for the feeling I get is this is for someone 04:03.360 --> 04:05.760 or a few people might be online, 04:06.040 --> 04:08.360 might be people who watch this in the future. 04:08.360 --> 04:12.700 I don't know, but I feel like I need to talk to someone about this 04:13.720 --> 04:15.700 and clarify some things. 04:16.980 --> 04:21.120 I've had many experiences over the years. 04:22.560 --> 04:25.580 Most of them I can't share. 04:26.620 --> 04:29.920 And I can't give the stories on them for a couple of reasons. 04:30.160 --> 04:34.620 One is a lot of times people just misunderstand. 04:35.580 --> 04:38.660 And then it gets a little bit goofy. 04:39.200 --> 04:41.280 And the second one is they can cause fear. 04:41.940 --> 04:44.160 So if you haven't beat your fear yet, 04:44.260 --> 04:45.500 and I share some of these stories, 04:46.040 --> 04:48.120 it's just going to ramp it up and that won't help you. 04:48.780 --> 04:51.820 But the thing I want to say is this. 04:53.260 --> 04:56.720 Don't be afraid of odd happenings. 04:59.200 --> 05:01.420 When you're doing deliverance stuff, 05:01.420 --> 05:03.980 odd stuff will happen. 05:04.440 --> 05:06.540 And you're going to experience some of this. 05:07.120 --> 05:10.500 And it can cause many questions in you. 05:11.820 --> 05:14.900 So because many times we shrink back from something 05:14.900 --> 05:16.080 that we've never seen or heard, 05:16.420 --> 05:19.000 or I've never seen anything or heard anything like this before, 05:19.400 --> 05:20.840 we'll shrink back from it. 05:21.160 --> 05:22.200 Don't do that. 05:23.660 --> 05:26.480 Because you're going to be cutting the person short 05:26.480 --> 05:27.920 that you're trying to help. 05:28.980 --> 05:33.360 So the next mistake we make is we talk to people about it, 05:33.460 --> 05:34.860 which is not wrong, 05:35.000 --> 05:36.740 but you're going to talk to people about it 05:36.740 --> 05:37.980 who've never done deliverance. 05:39.340 --> 05:41.780 And they're going to throw you straight in the ditch. 05:42.500 --> 05:44.200 Because they're going to give you advice 05:44.200 --> 05:47.620 out of no experience or knowledge whatsoever. 05:48.700 --> 05:51.300 And that is going to go haywire on you 05:51.300 --> 05:53.840 because if it's odd to you, 05:54.900 --> 05:57.540 it's going to really be odd to them 05:58.580 --> 06:01.340 unless they've been through that kind of thing before. 06:02.660 --> 06:04.600 If they haven't been through it 06:04.600 --> 06:06.680 and experienced similar kind of situations, 06:07.300 --> 06:09.840 all they're going to do is undermine the validity 06:09.840 --> 06:13.240 of what you experienced, what happened, 06:13.760 --> 06:16.100 which will throw you into unbelief and doubt. 06:16.700 --> 06:19.040 And then the greatest example I can give of that 06:19.040 --> 06:23.620 is the story I gave when that first person 06:23.620 --> 06:25.300 we got involved with that first person 06:25.300 --> 06:27.320 and we couldn't get the demon out 06:27.320 --> 06:30.640 and then my senior pastor 06:30.640 --> 06:33.360 called the district and asked for help. 06:34.680 --> 06:36.580 All they did was undermine 06:37.300 --> 06:38.800 what we were trying to do. 06:39.540 --> 06:41.420 There is no demon in this person. 06:41.520 --> 06:43.800 This person's saved. They cannot have a demon. 06:44.200 --> 06:46.500 They're a Christian. Christians can't have demons. 06:46.680 --> 06:48.300 They have psychological problems. 06:49.060 --> 06:51.040 You need to just back away from this. 06:51.180 --> 06:52.600 This is going to go bad for you. 06:53.540 --> 06:56.100 Time we were done listening to their input, 06:56.100 --> 06:58.140 of which, to my knowledge, 06:59.980 --> 07:01.820 nobody at the district office 07:01.820 --> 07:03.180 had ever cast out a demon. 07:04.100 --> 07:06.600 Or somebody would have had a little better advice 07:06.600 --> 07:07.220 than that one. 07:08.140 --> 07:10.840 That's just like about the bottom 07:10.840 --> 07:12.200 as you can go on advice. 07:13.200 --> 07:14.640 And all it did was cause us 07:14.640 --> 07:15.700 by the time we came out of that, 07:15.800 --> 07:17.160 we were just sitting there, our heads were spinning 07:17.840 --> 07:20.660 in unbelief of like, well, maybe we are all messed up. 07:21.700 --> 07:23.540 So watch out for that 07:23.540 --> 07:25.960 because odd happenings will take place. 07:27.580 --> 07:29.420 See if you can find someone 07:29.420 --> 07:32.240 who has had some experience in deliverance. 07:32.420 --> 07:32.960 Talk to them. 07:33.960 --> 07:35.100 Don't just grab somebody 07:35.660 --> 07:37.480 because it, you know, 07:37.800 --> 07:39.600 even the people you think should know better 07:39.600 --> 07:40.800 don't always know better. 07:41.940 --> 07:44.700 The Bible, let me just give a reality check here. 07:45.080 --> 07:47.620 The Bible is a book written by the Holy Spirit 07:47.620 --> 07:50.520 about the experiences of men and women. 07:52.240 --> 07:54.400 What we consider doctrine 07:55.040 --> 07:57.720 was somebody else's experience with God. 07:59.000 --> 08:02.580 You know, Abraham was called 08:02.580 --> 08:04.340 out of the Ur of Caldees. 08:04.720 --> 08:06.560 He was called into a land 08:06.560 --> 08:09.040 that God said, I will give to you in your descendants. 08:09.760 --> 08:10.920 If you bless them, 08:11.860 --> 08:13.520 whoever blesses them will be blessed. 08:13.660 --> 08:14.820 Whoever curses them will be cursed. 08:14.820 --> 08:16.140 We have a doctrine on that. 08:16.540 --> 08:18.080 Do not curse Israel. 08:20.680 --> 08:23.100 And then we go into the promised land 08:23.100 --> 08:25.140 and now God makes a covenant with Abraham. 08:25.600 --> 08:27.220 And he's the father of faith 08:27.220 --> 08:29.300 and we are his children by faith. 08:29.560 --> 08:32.180 And we have a huge realm 08:32.180 --> 08:33.940 of the New Testament and doctrine 08:33.940 --> 08:35.840 that is based on 08:37.480 --> 08:38.600 Abraham's experience 08:39.720 --> 08:41.940 with what God did in his life. 08:44.400 --> 08:45.760 Sometimes we look at doctrine 08:45.760 --> 08:46.980 and it's like, well, this is just solid 08:46.980 --> 08:47.980 because it's in the Word of God. 08:48.140 --> 08:49.000 We'll back up two steps 08:49.000 --> 08:50.120 and you're going to find out 08:52.120 --> 08:53.940 this was somebody's experience. 08:54.640 --> 08:56.580 They had an interaction with God 08:56.580 --> 08:58.000 and it was an interaction 08:58.760 --> 09:00.440 that the Holy Spirit wanted us, 09:00.540 --> 09:01.840 that God wanted us to remember 09:01.840 --> 09:03.520 so it was written down 09:03.520 --> 09:04.720 and it's in the Bible. 09:05.180 --> 09:06.120 And we can learn from it, 09:06.160 --> 09:07.020 we can grow from it. 09:07.240 --> 09:08.880 But it was somebody's experience. 09:09.900 --> 09:11.000 You're going to have experiences 09:11.000 --> 09:11.540 experiences. 09:12.940 --> 09:13.680 That's okay. 09:14.300 --> 09:16.020 Now they all need to align with the Word. 09:16.260 --> 09:17.040 We're not going to come up 09:17.040 --> 09:17.940 with the new Bible now. 09:18.360 --> 09:20.220 They all need to align with the Word. 09:21.940 --> 09:24.100 But everything that God does 09:24.100 --> 09:25.160 in our life 09:26.240 --> 09:27.420 has to become 09:28.920 --> 09:29.960 experientially relevant. 09:31.140 --> 09:32.640 Not just a belief. 09:34.320 --> 09:35.800 We can believe ourselves 09:35.800 --> 09:37.100 straight to hell. 09:38.180 --> 09:39.660 The demons believe 09:40.840 --> 09:41.920 and tremble. 09:42.880 --> 09:44.640 But they're not very well off 09:44.640 --> 09:45.240 for their belief. 09:46.460 --> 09:49.020 It has to be experientially 09:49.020 --> 09:51.160 relevant to us. 09:53.800 --> 09:55.000 So realize 09:55.000 --> 09:56.840 God has given us all the information 09:56.840 --> 09:58.340 in the scripture we need 09:58.340 --> 09:59.440 for life and godliness 10:00.820 --> 10:02.980 and we're going to have to dig 10:02.980 --> 10:04.400 to make some of the things 10:04.400 --> 10:06.440 understandable, some of our 10:06.440 --> 10:08.660 happenings, odd events that happen 10:08.660 --> 10:10.640 to see where they're at in the scripture. 10:11.140 --> 10:13.420 But always 10:13.420 --> 10:15.320 to stay on track 10:16.540 --> 10:19.400 to not get off in the ditch 10:19.400 --> 10:20.480 and end up in deception. 10:21.300 --> 10:24.120 You must align your experiences 10:24.120 --> 10:25.140 with the Word. 10:26.620 --> 10:27.520 You must. 10:29.560 --> 10:32.080 If they're contrary to the Word 10:32.080 --> 10:33.320 it wasn't God. 10:34.520 --> 10:36.520 If you don't hold yourself to that 10:36.520 --> 10:37.780 you're going to end up in the ditch 10:37.780 --> 10:38.380 really hard. 10:38.820 --> 10:41.080 But realize something in this. 10:42.240 --> 10:44.020 Again, the hidden and secret 10:44.020 --> 10:45.800 things of scripture are not 10:45.800 --> 10:47.220 easily seen. 10:51.140 --> 10:52.760 You will need to look 10:52.760 --> 10:54.420 for some things 10:54.420 --> 10:55.320 diligently. 10:56.760 --> 10:58.080 And just be honest 10:58.080 --> 11:00.080 and don't take scripture and twist it 11:00.080 --> 11:01.440 to try to fit your situation 11:01.440 --> 11:03.940 because you'll end up in deception 11:03.940 --> 11:04.900 and air there too. 11:05.500 --> 11:06.680 If it's in there 11:07.220 --> 11:08.740 it'll be obvious to you 11:09.240 --> 11:10.580 when he shows it to you. 11:11.240 --> 11:13.300 But for instance, I'll just give you an example of that. 11:13.380 --> 11:15.360 We've talked about this so I'm using examples 11:15.360 --> 11:17.320 that we've talked about so I don't take much time on. 11:18.280 --> 11:19.560 When I had that 11:19.560 --> 11:21.320 situation where that demon 11:21.320 --> 11:22.700 supposedly got saved 11:25.820 --> 11:26.940 that was an experience. 11:27.360 --> 11:28.900 That was an odd happening. 11:30.760 --> 11:31.860 There's only one way 11:31.860 --> 11:33.900 to find out if that's God or not. It has to be 11:33.900 --> 11:34.220 in the Word. 11:36.720 --> 11:37.780 I had never 11:37.780 --> 11:39.780 seen anything in the Word 11:39.780 --> 11:40.880 concerning that. 11:41.940 --> 11:44.600 Read it through multiple, multiple, multiple times. 11:44.820 --> 11:45.800 Never seen anything 11:45.800 --> 11:48.200 in the Word concerning that. I didn't think it was possible. 11:49.120 --> 11:50.040 Till it happened 11:50.040 --> 11:51.300 then now what do I do with this? 11:53.760 --> 11:55.600 But you know what? Once 11:55.600 --> 11:57.180 we went to the Word 11:58.200 --> 11:59.920 and really started searching 12:01.020 --> 12:02.160 it is so 12:02.160 --> 12:02.900 obvious 12:04.160 --> 12:05.940 it's like how could we miss this? 12:06.660 --> 12:08.140 I mean in Colossians 12:08.140 --> 12:10.020 too it flat out says it 12:10.980 --> 12:12.000 that salvation 12:12.000 --> 12:13.740 goes beyond mankind. 12:14.020 --> 12:16.020 God's grace is big enough to cover 12:16.020 --> 12:17.000 the spirit realm. 12:17.700 --> 12:20.000 Jesus' sacrifice was big enough 12:20.000 --> 12:21.800 to cover the spirit realm. 12:21.920 --> 12:23.520 Not just human race. 12:23.920 --> 12:24.420 Everybody. 12:25.260 --> 12:28.060 I'd never seen that before. Never in my life 12:28.060 --> 12:28.800 had I seen that. 12:29.320 --> 12:31.340 So you're going to have odd happenings. 12:31.400 --> 12:33.420 You're going to have to go to the Word to find out 12:33.420 --> 12:35.160 if you're in the ditch or you're still on the road. 12:36.340 --> 12:37.720 But when you go to the Word 12:37.720 --> 12:38.680 don't twist it. 12:40.260 --> 12:41.740 But if you're on the 12:41.740 --> 12:43.120 road you will find 12:43.940 --> 12:45.940 something in there that flat 12:45.940 --> 12:48.040 out shows you yes this is 12:48.040 --> 12:49.860 God or no this is not God. 12:51.220 --> 12:51.480 So 12:52.060 --> 12:53.680 I'll just and these will all be in the booklet 12:53.680 --> 12:55.940 but some principles to follow to keep yourself on 12:55.940 --> 12:57.900 track when experiencing some of these new 12:57.900 --> 12:58.840 weird things. 12:59.660 --> 13:01.820 Number one love God with all 13:01.820 --> 13:03.400 your heart soul mind and strength. 13:03.660 --> 13:05.880 If anything happens to start causing your 13:05.880 --> 13:07.680 love for God to wane back up 13:09.220 --> 13:09.820 and 13:09.820 --> 13:11.880 they will demons will go after 13:11.880 --> 13:13.660 it. People 13:13.660 --> 13:15.320 will go after it. 13:17.700 --> 13:19.460 It's just Christians can be odd. 13:20.160 --> 13:21.860 I don't know why they do it but 13:21.860 --> 13:23.400 I have theories but 13:23.400 --> 13:25.400 if in the 13:25.400 --> 13:27.560 process you find yourself loving God 13:27.560 --> 13:29.340 less not more 13:31.020 --> 13:32.000 back up. 13:32.700 --> 13:35.360 Like that first 18 to 24 month experience 13:35.360 --> 13:37.520 I had. I came out of 13:37.520 --> 13:39.240 that with 13:39.240 --> 13:41.160 a number of things 13:41.160 --> 13:43.260 that were beyond anything 13:43.260 --> 13:45.420 I had ever experienced. Number one my love 13:45.420 --> 13:47.220 for God increased a hundred fold. 13:47.900 --> 13:49.440 My ability to hear the 13:49.440 --> 13:51.240 voice of the spirit went from 13:51.240 --> 13:52.900 1 to 15 13:52.900 --> 13:54.240 on a scale of 10. 13:57.840 --> 13:59.400 My dedication 13:59.400 --> 14:00.660 to be 14:01.240 --> 14:03.260 obedient and sacrifice 14:03.260 --> 14:04.840 no matter what 14:05.660 --> 14:06.440 became 14:07.240 --> 14:09.320 paramount. There was no 14:09.320 --> 14:11.100 this thing of 14:11.100 --> 14:13.120 this principle 14:13.120 --> 14:15.160 came out of that. Many times 14:15.160 --> 14:17.140 Christians think we have the right 14:17.140 --> 14:19.320 to choose to sin or not to sin. 14:20.640 --> 14:21.200 Well, because 14:21.200 --> 14:23.040 some Christians do it, you know 14:23.480 --> 14:25.440 I have friends that do it and they're fine 14:25.440 --> 14:27.100 you can't say they're not going to have it. 14:28.840 --> 14:29.720 So if they're going 14:29.720 --> 14:31.400 fine I mean don't judge 14:31.860 --> 14:33.020 who are you to judge me 14:33.480 --> 14:35.280 I can go do this too if I want. 14:36.740 --> 14:37.620 Show me in Scripture 14:37.620 --> 14:39.620 any place where sin is ever 14:39.620 --> 14:40.280 an option 14:42.020 --> 14:43.120 ever an option. 14:44.460 --> 14:45.420 But we live in the 14:45.420 --> 14:46.200 American church 14:47.320 --> 14:48.440 where it is an option. 14:51.020 --> 14:52.220 We have young people 14:52.720 --> 14:54.040 growing up in the church 14:54.040 --> 14:55.900 saved, baptized in the Holy Spirit 14:55.900 --> 14:57.500 and they live with their 14:58.340 --> 15:00.120 prospective partner a year or two or 15:00.120 --> 15:01.560 three years before they ever marry them. 15:04.950 --> 15:06.230 Now can I just be blunt? 15:06.590 --> 15:07.710 What the heck are you doing? 15:09.010 --> 15:10.270 Oh don't judge me 15:10.270 --> 15:11.630 I'm under grace. 15:14.730 --> 15:16.190 During that first 18 15:16.190 --> 15:17.150 to 24 months 15:18.270 --> 15:19.450 that principle was 15:19.450 --> 15:20.770 ground into me. 15:22.230 --> 15:23.550 Sin is never an option 15:23.990 --> 15:25.530 don't make an excuse for sin. 15:26.370 --> 15:28.210 It is never an option. 15:28.730 --> 15:29.830 Well that's forgiveness later. 15:30.070 --> 15:31.370 What makes you think he's going to forgive you? 15:33.150 --> 15:34.350 I have a message on that 15:34.350 --> 15:35.610 that I'm about ready to deliver 15:35.610 --> 15:37.890 but that's a different thought. Okay, so number one 15:37.890 --> 15:39.490 love God with all your heart, soul, mind and strength. 15:39.590 --> 15:41.190 Number two learn to hear the Holy Spirit. 15:41.830 --> 15:43.810 Remember he is our greatest teacher 15:43.810 --> 15:45.770 and counselor, not man. 15:47.390 --> 15:48.890 Stay off your phone 15:49.730 --> 15:51.070 and get talking to God. 15:51.550 --> 15:53.330 Get talking to the Holy Spirit. 15:54.250 --> 15:56.070 Your greatest counselor is the Holy Spirit 15:56.070 --> 15:57.310 not a person. 15:57.710 --> 15:59.630 Now if you can find someone who's experienced 15:59.630 --> 16:02.130 and this can help mentor you, that's good 16:02.130 --> 16:03.990 but listen to the Holy Spirit first. 16:04.950 --> 16:06.070 Number three be sensitive 16:06.070 --> 16:07.450 to follow the Holy Spirit. 16:08.790 --> 16:10.190 He educates us 16:10.190 --> 16:12.130 and gives us knowledge as we continue 16:12.130 --> 16:14.070 to move. If we lock up and say 16:14.070 --> 16:15.450 I'm not doing this any further 16:16.000 --> 16:17.770 then everything shuts down right there. 16:17.850 --> 16:19.890 You've got to be sensitive to follow him. Number four 16:19.890 --> 16:20.830 be quick to repent. 16:22.190 --> 16:24.070 Good news, you will 16:24.070 --> 16:24.750 make mistakes. 16:26.870 --> 16:27.710 Good news 16:27.710 --> 16:29.550 it's already bought and paid for. 16:30.510 --> 16:31.710 Put it under the blood 16:32.390 --> 16:33.370 and move on. 16:34.050 --> 16:36.350 If you think you're going to go into a deliverance 16:36.350 --> 16:38.410 kind of setting and never make a mistake 16:39.090 --> 16:40.170 you're pretty arrogant. 16:41.450 --> 16:42.950 Because it's a whole realm 16:42.950 --> 16:44.410 we know so little about 16:45.650 --> 16:47.190 but yet we know how to do it. 16:47.790 --> 16:48.710 I could ask you 16:48.710 --> 16:50.470 15 questions off the top of my head 16:50.470 --> 16:52.430 about deliverance and getting people free 16:52.430 --> 16:53.870 that none of you would have an answer for 16:54.750 --> 16:56.350 but yet we know how 16:56.350 --> 16:57.210 to do deliverance. 16:59.610 --> 17:00.050 So 17:01.110 --> 17:02.510 be quick to repent 17:02.510 --> 17:03.930 you will make mistakes 17:03.930 --> 17:06.370 and then following that. Number five 17:06.370 --> 17:07.770 take a humble posture 17:09.290 --> 17:09.990 don't take 17:09.990 --> 17:11.250 the know it all attitude 17:11.250 --> 17:12.570 take a humble posture 17:12.570 --> 17:13.790 with God 17:14.650 --> 17:15.910 and with people 17:17.650 --> 17:19.590 even when you have to take a stand 17:19.590 --> 17:21.250 against people 17:21.730 --> 17:23.150 try to do it humbly 17:24.210 --> 17:25.570 not arrogantly like 17:25.570 --> 17:26.830 I know what I'm doing 17:26.830 --> 17:28.510 who are you to question me? 17:29.270 --> 17:30.190 Don't do that 17:31.350 --> 17:32.770 take a humble stance 17:33.470 --> 17:34.730 be humble with God 17:34.730 --> 17:36.310 be humble with man 17:36.310 --> 17:38.650 and the last point number six 17:38.650 --> 17:39.390 I believe it is 17:40.650 --> 17:42.610 realize the foundation 17:42.610 --> 17:44.370 of this whole thing 17:44.370 --> 17:45.990 is built upon this 17:47.630 --> 17:48.410 realize 17:48.410 --> 17:51.030 admit and live from the perspective 17:51.950 --> 17:53.930 I don't know very much 17:57.380 --> 17:58.160 period 17:58.160 --> 17:59.460 period there 18:01.500 --> 18:02.280 realize 18:03.160 --> 18:03.940 admit 18:03.940 --> 18:04.960 own it 18:05.760 --> 18:11.580 And live from the perspective, I don't know very much, especially when it comes to deliverance and demons. 18:11.900 --> 18:20.260 It is a world, a realm that is far greater than this physical realm, and we really know a speck of it. 18:21.560 --> 18:27.660 We don't know how it operates. We don't know how it's organized. We really don't know very much. 18:28.300 --> 18:32.240 It is purely by God's grace that He's given us the name of Jesus and said, 18:32.240 --> 18:38.160 Here, just use this. It'll take care of it. You don't need to know it all because we really don't know very much. 18:38.380 --> 18:50.120 And the sooner we own that, because if... let me say it this way, principle, here's the road, walkie in it. 18:50.340 --> 18:53.700 The word is a lamp to my feet. We're trying to stay on the road. You got a ditch on each side. 18:54.480 --> 18:59.500 So when it comes to deliverance, the devil's going to try to drag you into the ditch of, 18:59.500 --> 19:05.400 I'm not capable. I don't know what I'm doing. I can't do this. What if something bad happens? 19:05.500 --> 19:10.960 All that stuff can try to drag you over here to stop you from doing any deliverance. 19:11.440 --> 19:17.880 If he can't get you into that ditch, he will try to push you into the opposite one. 19:18.580 --> 19:25.440 Which is, I know exactly what I'm doing. I've cast out three demons and everybody should come to me 19:25.440 --> 19:35.020 because I know what I'm doing from total inadequacy to pride. 19:36.180 --> 19:41.940 If he can get you in either ditch, he's got you. Because all you have to do is start thinking and believing, 19:42.620 --> 19:47.360 I know it. And all of a sudden they'll quit obeying you. Why? Because you're in sin. 19:49.940 --> 19:58.260 So just realize, we really don't know very much. And I know it's hard on the ego, but it's good. 19:58.460 --> 20:03.820 It's supposed to die anyway. So we've had numerous questions come in. 20:03.960 --> 20:08.060 So I'm going to run questions till about eight o'clock. Then we're going to go to the handout 20:08.060 --> 20:13.260 because we've got to deal with unresolved anger. And then I'll come back and finish the questions 20:13.260 --> 20:17.580 after the unresolved anger handout and then we'll open up for anything new. 20:19.580 --> 20:22.720 So first question that came in, most of these came in online. 20:25.060 --> 20:30.860 Is there any, or I should say from viewers online, is there anything that could have prevented 20:30.860 --> 20:37.780 your initial 18 to 24 month experience, that first introduction and deliverance? 20:40.080 --> 20:42.900 Well, I'm going to answer it this way. Hopefully it makes sense. 20:44.760 --> 20:48.840 Maybe for some things, and yes for some things. 20:49.560 --> 20:52.380 So in other words, maybe something could have prevented some of that. 20:53.020 --> 20:56.580 And some things, yeah, some of that could have been prevented. 20:58.140 --> 21:08.500 Some biblical working knowledge of deliverance would have been so helpful. 21:11.260 --> 21:17.600 I grew up in a full gospel church. I'd never heard one even sermon, 21:18.040 --> 21:22.580 much less a class on deliverance. I never heard one. 21:23.940 --> 21:29.840 I went through Bible college four years, got my bachelor's. 21:30.560 --> 21:32.580 Probably should have went for my master's, might have helped me. 21:32.680 --> 21:38.680 I don't know, got my bachelor's. Not one class was about deliverance. 21:40.640 --> 21:47.180 So I knew nothing. So some biblical working knowledge of deliverance would have helped. 21:47.180 --> 21:52.580 Number two, an on-site mentor. Somebody who I could pick up the phone 21:52.580 --> 21:59.140 and they were a half an hour, an hour away, who had actually done deliverance 21:59.140 --> 22:03.140 and could hear the voice of the spirit, would have made the difference from day and night. 22:04.420 --> 22:06.300 Day and night would have made the difference. 22:07.020 --> 22:10.060 The only person I had lived north side of Minneapolis. 22:11.160 --> 22:14.520 That was depending upon traffic back then five to six hours. 22:17.400 --> 22:19.460 You know, you can thank God he was there. 22:20.100 --> 22:22.160 You know, you can get some stuff covered by phone. 22:22.460 --> 22:25.360 But somebody who can say, I will be there in an hour. 22:26.940 --> 22:27.620 Hang on. 22:28.500 --> 22:31.320 Oh, that would have made the difference between night and day right there. 22:31.400 --> 22:32.060 But there was nobody. 22:34.200 --> 22:36.760 Because if I'd had somebody come and I'd have said, 22:36.920 --> 22:39.960 I am going to sit to the side now and let you do this. 22:40.460 --> 22:45.560 What that would have done for me is given me some experiential faith. 22:46.980 --> 22:51.100 There's a difference between doctrinal faith and experiential faith. 22:51.420 --> 22:53.840 Doctrinal faith is when the Lord takes the reema 22:53.840 --> 22:57.060 and he reveals to us what we should believe 22:57.060 --> 22:59.260 and we need to get solid on it. 22:59.540 --> 23:00.580 This is what I believe. 23:01.760 --> 23:04.680 Experiential faith is when you take what you believe and you make it work. 23:06.500 --> 23:07.800 That's a whole different world. 23:09.220 --> 23:12.680 We believe God paid for all of our healing. 23:14.420 --> 23:16.840 But are we living in complete full health? 23:18.720 --> 23:20.120 See, it's all faith. 23:21.000 --> 23:25.080 But one is doctrinal and the other is experiential. 23:25.640 --> 23:28.400 I would have loved to see somebody do it. 23:28.500 --> 23:31.860 Now, we came over to Minneapolis a couple of times. 23:32.520 --> 23:33.840 Because, I mean, we just hit a wall. 23:33.940 --> 23:34.640 We couldn't get anywhere. 23:34.860 --> 23:36.240 So we came over and got some help. 23:39.620 --> 23:40.840 It was good. 23:40.840 --> 23:41.980 I learned a lot. 23:42.020 --> 23:42.980 But it wasn't enough. 23:43.920 --> 23:45.900 So that would have made a big difference. 23:48.480 --> 23:51.720 So, yes, there are some things that could have helped. 23:52.040 --> 23:54.220 And now let's look at the maybes. 23:55.760 --> 23:58.840 I was thrown into a very difficult situation 23:59.820 --> 24:02.740 in that early years period of time. 24:03.620 --> 24:05.400 Most of which I can't share. 24:05.920 --> 24:08.520 I can't go there for the reasons I already gave. 24:10.280 --> 24:13.260 Even with the few things I do know now, 24:14.020 --> 24:16.640 if I was put back in that same situation, 24:16.720 --> 24:18.380 it would be really tough. 24:19.560 --> 24:22.420 And may take some time to get the person free. 24:23.720 --> 24:26.600 Because of the situation I was in. 24:26.840 --> 24:28.220 So, would have it helped?

You had your Bible 50:34.290 --> 50:35.790 right here on the end table 50:35.790 --> 50:37.710 and now you need a scripture and you reach 50:37.710 --> 50:38.450 for it and it's gone. 50:40.470 --> 50:41.230 Where to go? 50:42.170 --> 50:43.670 You find it in a bathtub 50:43.670 --> 50:45.890 or some strange place. 50:48.090 --> 50:49.810 Those things just get weird. 50:51.210 --> 50:52.350 I've shared a few other 50:52.350 --> 50:54.350 things with you on that 50:54.350 --> 50:56.090 like the person being drugged 50:56.090 --> 50:58.110 down the hallway and stuff like that. 50:58.110 --> 50:59.530 Just weird stuff. 50:59.970 --> 51:01.810 It's typically tied to 51:01.810 --> 51:02.810 generational 51:03.710 --> 51:06.310 sins of the father's familiar spirit 51:06.310 --> 51:07.710 stuff.

Then somebody 57:29.570 --> 57:32.170 is holding the button. Ding ding ding ding ding ding ding. 57:32.830 --> 57:33.670 Well, by this point 57:33.670 --> 57:35.470 we were far enough into it. We knew what that was. 57:35.650 --> 57:37.750 So you just take authority over it. Get out of here. 57:38.510 --> 57:39.390 You know, dealt with it. 57:39.750 --> 57:41.710 Screen door closes. Doorbell quits ringing. 57:42.050 --> 57:43.150 Close the door. Go back to bed. 57:45.650 --> 57:47.570 After a while you kind of get used to it. 57:48.810 --> 57:50.270 Because all they are trying to do is 57:50.270 --> 57:50.950 instill fear. 57:52.630 --> 57:53.490 And if you 57:53.490 --> 57:54.910 talk to anybody 57:54.910 --> 57:56.830 who has no experience in this 57:56.830 --> 57:57.950 about what's happening 57:58.590 --> 58:00.870 they will help instill fear 58:00.870 --> 58:02.310 because they're going to be afraid themselves. 58:03.030 --> 58:04.610 And their advice is going to be 58:04.610 --> 58:06.130 you better get out of that situation. 58:06.590 --> 58:08.970 And they'll go all these fear scenarios 58:08.970 --> 58:10.810 of how this could really go bad. 58:12.330 --> 58:14.570 Be careful who you talk to. But 58:15.670 --> 58:16.890 yeah, all kinds 58:16.890 --> 58:18.810 of poltergeist stuff. That's the weirdest to me. 58:19.470 --> 58:20.930 They're cussing at you. 58:21.090 --> 58:22.350 They're telling you 58:22.350 --> 58:24.630 all kinds of stuff. Whatever. 58:25.250 --> 58:25.990 But when 58:27.270 --> 58:28.690 manifestations start happening 58:28.690 --> 58:29.850 that can get weird. 58:30.410 --> 58:32.830 Number nine. So I'm not quite halfway 58:32.830 --> 58:34.810 through the questions yet. We're coming up on eight. 58:35.230 --> 58:37.170 I have 21 questions I think. 58:38.050 --> 58:38.530 Number nine. 58:39.030 --> 58:40.690 If you could give one piece of advice 58:40.690 --> 58:42.850 to somebody or someone going into 58:42.850 --> 58:44.730 deliverance ministry what would it be? 58:45.830 --> 58:46.910 I can't give 58:46.910 --> 58:48.150 just one piece of advice. 58:49.270 --> 58:50.770 I guess. James four 58:50.770 --> 58:52.830 seven would be the closest 58:52.830 --> 58:54.950 I could get to. Here's one thing you 58:54.950 --> 58:56.790 must know. It'd be that. 58:57.210 --> 58:58.630 But I'll give you a couple of thoughts. 58:59.050 --> 59:00.250 I've got a few written down here. 59:01.090 --> 59:02.890 Number one. If you're going to do 59:02.890 --> 59:03.730 deliverance 59:04.690 --> 59:07.210 you cannot play spiritual 59:07.210 --> 59:08.770 games in your own 59:08.770 --> 59:10.110 personal life. 59:11.770 --> 59:13.230 To your knowledge 59:13.230 --> 59:15.110 you personally have 59:15.110 --> 59:17.190 to be a hundred percent submitted 59:17.750 --> 59:18.630 to God 59:18.630 --> 59:20.770 or these things are going to turn 59:20.770 --> 59:22.750 your deliverance sessions into a circus. 59:24.830 --> 59:26.990 The first thing they will do is act 59:26.990 --> 59:28.590 like they're leaving but they don't 59:28.590 --> 59:30.930 because you don't have the authority to kick them out because you're in sin 59:30.930 --> 59:31.370 yourself. 59:33.070 --> 59:34.730 And that's the first game they'll play. 59:36.430 --> 59:37.490 And then from there 59:37.490 --> 59:38.970 just kind of spirals down. 59:39.210 --> 59:41.130 So number one you can't play games 59:41.130 --> 59:43.270 in your own spiritual personal life. 59:43.870 --> 59:45.170 You've got to be a hundred percent 59:45.170 --> 59:46.530 submitted to God.

Because if I get 01:10:44.380 --> 01:10:45.640 sidetracked I know how this goes. 01:10:46.420 --> 01:10:47.760 It's like a ball of yarn 01:10:47.760 --> 01:10:49.160 and you start pulling it. It's just 01:10:49.160 --> 01:10:49.980 going to keep coming. 01:10:51.540 --> 01:10:53.040 And I can't get sidetracked 01:10:53.040 --> 01:10:54.240 or we're not going to get through some 01:10:54.240 --> 01:10:55.240 things we have to get through. 01:10:55.440 --> 01:10:57.240 This piece right here we have to get 01:10:57.240 --> 01:10:59.300 through. It says 01:10:59.300 --> 01:11:00.640 revisiting the two main ways 01:11:00.640 --> 01:11:02.080 demons gain access to humans. 01:11:02.300 --> 01:11:03.980 You should have this available to you 01:11:03.980 --> 01:11:06.320 online under messages. 01:11:07.240 --> 01:11:08.580 Go there. You should have this 01:11:08.580 --> 01:11:10.380 in a PDF format if you want to look at it 01:11:10.380 --> 01:11:12.300 that way. Otherwise you can follow it on the screen 01:11:12.300 --> 01:11:13.360 for now and get it later. 01:11:14.860 --> 01:11:16.360 We've already talked about this 01:11:16.360 --> 01:11:18.320 but I want to look at it from another perspective. 01:11:18.600 --> 01:11:20.180 Paul talks about it again in Ephesians 01:11:20.180 --> 01:11:22.200 4, 27. We're told 01:11:22.200 --> 01:11:24.360 not to give place or give a foothold 01:11:24.360 --> 01:11:25.740 or leave room for the devil. 01:11:26.520 --> 01:11:28.180 And we'll see that in the three translations 01:11:28.180 --> 01:11:30.100 down here. We've already 01:11:30.100 --> 01:11:31.900 seen how this is done by 01:11:31.900 --> 01:11:33.220 getting involved with sin. 01:11:33.800 --> 01:11:36.300 You can give place to demons 01:11:36.880 --> 01:11:38.200 by getting involved 01:11:38.200 --> 01:11:40.380 in sin. I mean we've talked about that 01:11:40.380 --> 01:11:42.220 over and over and over. Sin is the 01:11:42.220 --> 01:11:44.100 core. Sin is the legal right. 01:11:44.680 --> 01:11:45.820 So that's one way. 01:11:45.940 --> 01:11:48.000 So I'm not going to go back into that. I want to go 01:11:48.000 --> 01:11:49.760 into the second way Paul brings up. 01:11:50.240 --> 01:11:51.880 He adds a new piece of information 01:11:51.880 --> 01:11:54.120 here in Ephesians 4. And this 01:11:54.120 --> 01:11:56.240 was one of those experiential 01:11:56.240 --> 01:11:58.400 things that happened that I had 01:11:58.400 --> 01:12:00.140 to go to the scripture and find 01:12:00.900 --> 01:12:02.160 is this even true? 01:12:04.140 --> 01:12:06.020 This comes out of that 01:12:06.020 --> 01:12:08.000 night early on 01:12:08.000 --> 01:12:08.760 when 01:12:10.140 --> 01:12:12.280 there was a group of us and we were asking 01:12:12.280 --> 01:12:14.100 what gives you the right to be here 01:12:14.100 --> 01:12:16.320 and the only way they could describe it 01:12:16.320 --> 01:12:17.860 is there is an empty space 01:12:17.860 --> 01:12:19.880 or they called it a live hole 01:12:19.880 --> 01:12:21.260 in the person's temple. 01:12:22.400 --> 01:12:23.940 And that's what gives them the right. 01:12:24.700 --> 01:12:26.240 And they couldn't figure out 01:12:26.240 --> 01:12:27.940 why it was there or they 01:12:27.940 --> 01:12:30.040 were refusing to say why it was there. 01:12:30.660 --> 01:12:32.120 But there was a hole 01:12:32.840 --> 01:12:33.360 and 01:12:34.200 --> 01:12:35.860 when there's a hole we move in 01:12:35.860 --> 01:12:36.840 because we want a body. 01:12:37.440 --> 01:12:39.720 So here is the scripture on that. 01:12:40.320 --> 01:12:41.780 Ephesians 4, out of the 01:12:41.780 --> 01:12:43.620 amplified, when angry do not sin 01:12:43.620 --> 01:12:45.680 do not ever let your wrath or your 01:12:45.680 --> 01:12:47.920 exasperation, your fury, your indignation 01:12:47.920 --> 01:12:50.160 last until the sun goes down. 01:12:51.240 --> 01:12:52.140 Now the way we approach 01:12:52.140 --> 01:12:52.840 that is 01:12:54.460 --> 01:12:55.880 and again trying to just 01:12:55.880 --> 01:12:57.460 give some rules and guidelines 01:12:59.700 --> 01:13:01.120 if the sun is setting 01:13:01.120 --> 01:13:04.060 when you're having a knock down drag out 01:13:04.060 --> 01:13:05.560 fight with somebody and you're angry 01:13:06.200 --> 01:13:08.160 you know. If you can solve that 01:13:08.160 --> 01:13:10.240 before the sun goes down, more power to you 01:13:10.240 --> 01:13:12.020 but a lot of times we can't. 01:13:12.340 --> 01:13:14.080 So we at that point 01:13:14.080 --> 01:13:16.620 I come from the perspective you've got 24 hours 01:13:16.620 --> 01:13:17.680 to resolve this. 01:13:19.060 --> 01:13:20.100 If it started 01:13:20.100 --> 01:13:22.100 at 2 in the afternoon and you were done by 01:13:22.100 --> 01:13:23.720 3 in the afternoon, if it's winter 01:13:23.720 --> 01:13:25.200 you've got about an hour and a half 01:13:26.020 --> 01:13:27.260 4.30 the sun sets. 01:13:28.280 --> 01:13:30.060 If it's summer you've got a little bit more time 01:13:30.060 --> 01:13:32.200 to work your way through this. It sets a little later. 01:13:34.280 --> 01:13:36.160 So my whole point is if you're going to get 01:13:36.160 --> 01:13:38.260 in a good fight do it after the sun set 01:13:38.260 --> 01:13:39.560 so it gives you more time to work. 01:13:39.940 --> 01:13:42.140 I'm just messing with you. 01:13:43.800 --> 01:13:46.400 But it comes out of the way this is worded. 01:13:46.700 --> 01:13:48.280 Don't stay angry until the sun 01:13:48.280 --> 01:13:48.760 goes down. 01:13:49.780 --> 01:13:52.660 Well, 24 hours max 01:13:52.660 --> 01:13:54.780 you've got to deal with this. 01:13:56.260 --> 01:13:58.640 Leave no such room. 01:13:59.660 --> 01:14:00.640 Well in the amplified 01:14:00.640 --> 01:14:02.460 such room is referring back 01:14:02.460 --> 01:14:04.220 to your anger that's not resolved. 01:14:05.020 --> 01:14:06.180 That becomes 01:14:06.180 --> 01:14:08.260 room or foot hold 01:14:08.260 --> 01:14:10.380 for the devil. Don't give him 01:14:10.380 --> 01:14:12.440 that opportunity. So unresolved 01:14:12.440 --> 01:14:14.400 anger is 01:14:14.400 --> 01:14:16.540 a possible foot hold for the devil. 01:14:16.540 --> 01:14:18.420 Now in the NIV it says this way. 01:14:18.560 --> 01:14:19.680 In your anger do not sin. 01:14:20.300 --> 01:14:22.700 Do not let the sun go down while you are still angry 01:14:23.620 --> 01:14:24.020 and 01:14:24.740 --> 01:14:26.800 do not give the devil a foot hold. 01:14:27.260 --> 01:14:28.440 So the way it's worded there 01:14:28.440 --> 01:14:30.440 it's like well anger could give the devil 01:14:30.440 --> 01:14:32.180 a foot hold but then and 01:14:32.180 --> 01:14:34.080 do not give the devil a foot hold. 01:14:34.520 --> 01:14:36.840 Well there could be other things that give the devil a foot hold 01:14:36.840 --> 01:14:37.500 which we know. 01:14:38.500 --> 01:14:40.520 King James is kind of the same thing. 01:14:41.020 --> 01:14:42.680 Neither give place to the devil. 01:14:42.860 --> 01:14:44.520 So don't let the sun go down 01:14:44.520 --> 01:14:45.900 you got to resolve your anger. 01:14:47.100 --> 01:14:47.500 Neither 01:14:48.340 --> 01:14:49.580 give place to the devil. 01:14:50.280 --> 01:14:52.280 Again it could be your anger that's giving 01:14:52.280 --> 01:14:54.180 place to the devil or it could be 01:14:54.180 --> 01:14:55.940 something else that's giving 01:14:55.940 --> 01:14:58.180 place to the devil but just don't 01:14:58.180 --> 01:14:59.220 give place to the devil. 01:14:59.800 --> 01:15:02.000 So we've talked about the first one a lot. 01:15:02.120 --> 01:15:03.600 We're going to talk about this one here tonight. 01:15:04.220 --> 01:15:06.440 Most of the translations bear out the same thought. 01:15:06.580 --> 01:15:08.300 We are able to give the devil access 01:15:08.300 --> 01:15:10.720 to and place in our lives there in verse 27. 01:15:11.320 --> 01:15:12.420 And the one way we do it 01:15:12.420 --> 01:15:14.140 is verse 26, unresolved anger. 01:15:14.420 --> 01:15:15.080 Page number two. 01:15:15.820 --> 01:15:18.040 We've looked at the first principle that deals with us 01:15:18.040 --> 01:15:20.460 being able to give the devil 01:15:20.460 --> 01:15:22.460 or the kingdom of darkness access to our life. 01:15:22.860 --> 01:15:24.900 It's personal sin or generational sin. 01:15:25.840 --> 01:15:26.760 And we've also looked 01:15:26.760 --> 01:15:28.760 at how agreement can open up 01:15:28.760 --> 01:15:30.540 to the demonic realm and the transference 01:15:30.540 --> 01:15:32.320 of spirits. Those are the three basic 01:15:32.320 --> 01:15:34.380 areas where we're involved 01:15:34.380 --> 01:15:35.780 and we can deal with this. 01:15:36.460 --> 01:15:38.180 But here now Paul is adding 01:15:38.180 --> 01:15:40.020 one more, unresolved anger. 01:15:41.020 --> 01:15:42.960 So unresolved anger is talking 01:15:42.960 --> 01:15:44.520 about anger that has been handled 01:15:44.520 --> 01:15:46.280 incorrectly. There's a right way 01:15:46.280 --> 01:15:47.740 and a wrong way to handle anger. 01:15:48.400 --> 01:15:50.540 Remember, anger in itself 01:15:50.540 --> 01:15:51.580 is not sin. 01:15:52.500 --> 01:15:54.220 When I was growing up I was taught 01:15:54.860 --> 01:15:56.260 do not be angry. 01:15:56.460 --> 01:15:57.080 Stop sinning. 01:15:57.940 --> 01:15:59.440 That's not scriptural. 01:16:00.040 --> 01:16:02.220 Scripture says in your anger 01:16:03.240 --> 01:16:04.400 do not sin. 01:16:05.240 --> 01:16:06.400 If anger 01:16:06.400 --> 01:16:08.760 is sin, God is a sinner. 01:16:11.580 --> 01:16:12.880 Because God gets angry. 01:16:16.020 --> 01:16:17.480 It's the mishandling 01:16:17.480 --> 01:16:19.220 of anger that makes it sin. 01:16:19.760 --> 01:16:21.000 So let's get a running start 01:16:21.000 --> 01:16:22.960 on this because you'll see it better 01:16:22.960 --> 01:16:24.360 if we read a number of scriptures. 01:16:24.520 --> 01:16:25.820 We're going to start at verse 14. 01:16:27.780 --> 01:16:29.220 Then we will no longer 01:16:29.220 --> 01:16:30.920 be infants tossed back and forth 01:16:30.920 --> 01:16:33.080 by the waves and blown here and there 01:16:33.080 --> 01:16:34.860 by every wind of teaching 01:16:34.860 --> 01:16:36.360 and by the cunning and craftiness 01:16:36.360 --> 01:16:38.120 of men and their deceitful scheming. 01:16:38.240 --> 01:16:40.200 Now I didn't look it up, but my memory says 01:16:40.200 --> 01:16:42.100 he just got done talking about the 01:16:42.100 --> 01:16:43.680 five-fold anointing and what 01:16:44.200 --> 01:16:45.340 they're supposed to produce. 01:16:46.100 --> 01:16:47.560 They're supposed to mature us. 01:16:47.680 --> 01:16:49.400 So then we will no longer be infants 01:16:49.400 --> 01:16:50.780 and goes on. 01:16:53.180 --> 01:16:54.220 Instead, speaking 01:16:54.220 --> 01:16:55.800 the truth and love. So in verse 14 01:16:55.800 --> 01:16:56.600 let me back up. 01:16:57.380 --> 01:16:59.140 Being moved around by all kinds of different 01:16:59.140 --> 01:17:01.200 kinds of teaching and men 01:17:01.780 --> 01:17:03.800 and their cunning, getting a hold 01:17:03.800 --> 01:17:05.340 of you and etc. 01:17:07.720 --> 01:17:08.300 Not God. 01:17:08.300 --> 01:17:09.240 Verse 15. 01:17:09.960 --> 01:17:11.860 Instead, speaking the truth and love 01:17:12.580 --> 01:17:14.160 we will in all things 01:17:14.160 --> 01:17:15.980 grow up into him who is the head. 01:17:16.260 --> 01:17:17.620 That is Christ. So now let me make 01:17:17.620 --> 01:17:19.940 a comment to you that was made to me 01:17:19.940 --> 01:17:21.400 just in the last couple of weeks. 01:17:22.500 --> 01:17:24.440 Someone said, if we as Christians 01:17:24.440 --> 01:17:26.400 would be honest with what we see 01:17:26.400 --> 01:17:28.300 in other Christians' lives 01:17:28.300 --> 01:17:29.860 I think we could help them a lot. 01:17:31.220 --> 01:17:32.480 Yeah, and you'd have no friends. 01:17:34.940 --> 01:17:35.380 Because 01:17:35.380 --> 01:17:36.800 in the American culture 01:17:37.480 --> 01:17:39.000 I don't tell you 01:17:39.720 --> 01:17:41.220 what I see as a weakness 01:17:41.220 --> 01:17:41.940 in you. 01:17:44.240 --> 01:17:44.720 Right? 01:17:46.760 --> 01:17:47.940 When's the last time 01:17:47.940 --> 01:17:49.920 you talked to someone and said 01:17:50.740 --> 01:17:51.400 you know 01:17:51.400 --> 01:17:53.440 there's an area in you that needs some help 01:17:53.960 --> 01:17:55.200 can we talk about it? 01:17:55.400 --> 01:17:56.060 Are you open to that? 01:17:56.960 --> 01:17:58.460 And that turned out good. 01:18:03.240 --> 01:18:04.200 But the answer 01:18:05.340 --> 01:18:06.900 to a lot of things 01:18:07.660 --> 01:18:08.620 is having 01:18:08.620 --> 01:18:10.540 the kind of people 01:18:10.540 --> 01:18:12.740 that you actually can speak the truth 01:18:12.740 --> 01:18:14.140 to in love. 01:18:14.580 --> 01:18:16.080 It causes growth 01:18:16.460 --> 01:18:18.000 and maturity, verse 15. 01:18:18.880 --> 01:18:20.520 Number 16, from him the whole body 01:18:20.520 --> 01:18:22.340 joined and held together by every supporting 01:18:22.340 --> 01:18:24.160 lingamate grows and builds itself 01:18:24.160 --> 01:18:26.540 up in love.

You don't have 01:18:38.620 --> 01:18:40.560 the kind of relationship with me to 01:18:40.560 --> 01:18:42.100 speak that into my life. 01:18:43.440 --> 01:18:45.200 Could you show me a scripture on 01:18:45.200 --> 01:18:45.380 that? 01:18:50.660 --> 01:18:52.380 There's certain truth I can't 01:18:52.380 --> 01:18:53.960 say to you unless I have a relationship 01:18:53.960 --> 01:18:56.300 with you. Is there any scripture on that? 01:18:57.140 --> 01:18:58.380 I have never found 01:18:58.380 --> 01:19:00.220 any. But it's almost 01:19:00.220 --> 01:19:02.320 like a cardinal rule we live by 01:19:02.320 --> 01:19:03.200 in the church in America. 01:19:04.320 --> 01:19:06.260 How dare they? They don't even know me. And they 01:19:06.260 --> 01:19:08.160 said this, see what you just said is 01:19:08.160 --> 01:19:09.340 you don't have the kind of relationship 01:19:09.340 --> 01:19:11.040 with me to say the truth to me. 01:19:11.620 --> 01:19:13.460 Well, sometimes the people who are viewing you 01:19:13.460 --> 01:19:15.360 from afar can see more clearly than 01:19:15.360 --> 01:19:16.520 the people who are close to you. 01:19:18.260 --> 01:19:18.540 Well. 01:19:20.720 --> 01:19:21.780 So, verse 17. 01:19:22.480 --> 01:19:24.140 So I tell you this and assist on 01:19:24.140 --> 01:19:25.960 it in the Lord that you must no longer 01:19:25.960 --> 01:19:27.840 live as the Gentiles do in the futility 01:19:27.840 --> 01:19:28.480 of their thinking. 01:19:30.740 --> 01:19:31.800 Okay, so 01:19:31.800 --> 01:19:32.880 our thinking has to change. 01:19:33.800 --> 01:19:35.480 We can't be tossed around by every 01:19:35.960 --> 01:19:37.600 doctrine and cunningness 01:19:37.600 --> 01:19:39.420 and craftiness of men. Okay, that must 01:19:39.420 --> 01:19:40.240 be a Gentile thing. 01:19:41.380 --> 01:19:43.280 That has been drug in the church.

It destroys intimacy, optimism, trust, hope. 01:27:43.720 --> 01:27:48.920 The thing I want you to pick up, there is number three. When we go to sleep with anger, it opens the door to the devil. 01:27:48.920 --> 01:28:07.440 Verse 22b is, he's a deceiver. Let me go back and see that. We're being corrupted by the old self deceitful desires. 01:28:08.420 --> 01:28:12.100 So we know he's going to work in deception with us. 01:28:12.100 --> 01:28:23.520 Verse 27 uses the word devil. That word in the Greek is Diablos. The definitions of that are false accuser, slanderer, and traducer. 01:28:24.180 --> 01:28:30.080 That's the definitions to Diablos. You're giving place to Diablos. 01:28:31.000 --> 01:28:37.620 When we don't handle anger correctly, the thoughts that begin running through our minds about the person or situation are not from God. 01:28:38.340 --> 01:28:43.740 So let's say you're angry with somebody and you've been sitting on this for a few days, few weeks, few years. 01:28:45.040 --> 01:28:55.060 I can guarantee you you have demons. Because you've given place to Diablos by not handling your anger correctly. 01:28:55.520 --> 01:29:01.340 You had 24 hours to process through this. That doesn't mean you have to settle it with them. 01:29:02.380 --> 01:29:10.160 That sometimes can take weeks and months. But you personally have to process through this. Forgive them. 01:29:10.540 --> 01:29:17.620 Come to a place where God, I turned that over to you. I'm going to go on. And however you want to handle it, that's fine. 01:29:17.760 --> 01:29:21.560 If you want me to get involved and work with this, that's fine. I'll do the best I can. 01:29:21.980 --> 01:29:27.980 But I am not going to carry anger towards that person. You have 24 hours to deal with that. 01:29:27.980 --> 01:29:36.120 Or you will pick up a demon. Specifically Diablos is the one mentioned here. The deceiver. 01:29:36.920 --> 01:29:41.400 So what would the deceiver do if you have unresolved anger for a week? 01:29:42.220 --> 01:29:46.920 He's going to deceive you because he moved into your temple, and I'll show you that here in a second. 01:29:47.680 --> 01:29:53.280 He moved into your temple to deceive you. He's going to give you all kinds of thoughts. 01:29:53.280 --> 01:29:59.780 Number five. He's going to lie to you about that person and that family and those people and that church. 01:30:00.600 --> 01:30:07.380 He's going to have all kinds of accusations run through your mind about them. Things that slander the person's character and reputation. 01:30:09.160 --> 01:30:13.500 He'll begin going around and around. These things begin going around and around in our thinking. 01:30:14.080 --> 01:30:22.180 This is Diablos at work to deceive us by falsely accusing and slandering the person we're angry with. 01:30:22.180 --> 01:30:29.060 Anytime we sit on unresolved anger, just be honest with yourself now. Anytime you sit on unresolved anger, 01:30:29.620 --> 01:30:37.180 you get negative feelings and thoughts towards the one you're angry with. That's Diablos. 01:30:41.510 --> 01:30:50.210 He's deceiving you into thinking and feeling about them, believing things about them that are absolutely untrue. 01:30:50.970 --> 01:30:55.350 But boy, they're true to you because they're brewing in that ground of anger. 01:30:55.970 --> 01:31:00.530 The result is we begin to become a traducer. There's the third word in the definition, 01:31:00.850 --> 01:31:06.890 which means we start shaming and blaming the person for the things we're angry about. 01:31:07.930 --> 01:31:17.410 So now you know that you know you've got a demon problem when not only are you thinking and feeling badly about them, 01:31:17.410 --> 01:31:25.410 now you start blaming them for what happened. It's their fault this took place. 01:31:25.610 --> 01:31:28.590 If they wouldn't have, I wouldn't be angry. 01:31:29.830 --> 01:31:39.370 Oh man, you just beacon on your forehead. I got a demon. I got a demon. He's deceiving me. 01:31:40.970 --> 01:31:43.390 He's just openly speaking to you. 01:31:47.670 --> 01:31:49.910 He's caused us to believe the lies, okay? 01:31:50.230 --> 01:31:56.930 So when anger isn't handled correctly, we literally create a place for Diablos or demons to live in our physical body or our temple. 01:31:57.330 --> 01:32:02.610 So we can do it through giving a place to them, through our own sin or generational sin, 01:32:02.810 --> 01:32:04.690 or we can do it through unresolved anger. 01:32:04.690 --> 01:32:08.790 I call it live-holes because that goes back to that deliverance session. 01:32:11.970 --> 01:32:14.470 That's what they called it and that's a fond memory to me. 01:32:14.710 --> 01:32:16.570 So that's what I call it, live-hole. 01:32:17.710 --> 01:32:19.770 The Greek definition for the word place. 01:32:20.130 --> 01:32:23.890 Now remember what the Spirit said and in this one they were actually being accurate. 01:32:24.430 --> 01:32:32.050 They said there's a place in the person's temple that is like a hole we can move into and we can live there. 01:32:32.910 --> 01:32:35.630 And then whatever they are, of course, that's going to start affecting you. 01:32:35.970 --> 01:32:39.590 Now look at the definition of the word place. 01:32:40.010 --> 01:32:43.030 Do not give place to the devil. 01:32:44.210 --> 01:32:49.710 From strong's concordance it says a spot or a space that is limited by occupancy. 01:32:51.070 --> 01:32:53.390 Wow, you could stop right there and that just described it. 01:32:57.010 --> 01:32:59.850 Hey, location, must be a location. 01:33:00.850 --> 01:33:02.790 Cross that off, we'll fix that for the book. 01:33:02.790 --> 01:33:06.050 A location as a position, home or tract. 01:33:06.290 --> 01:33:08.450 So at some place they come in and take up residence. 01:33:09.270 --> 01:33:12.150 It's a condition the person is in or an opportunity. 01:33:12.870 --> 01:33:15.250 The place is a condition of the person. 01:33:15.490 --> 01:33:17.310 It will give an opportunity to a demon. 01:33:17.870 --> 01:33:19.810 From Therese lexicon it says this. 01:33:20.350 --> 01:33:24.990 A place or any portion of space marked off as it... 01:33:26.470 --> 01:33:28.830 as it work off double check, that doesn't make sense. 01:33:28.830 --> 01:33:30.690 From surrounding space. 01:33:31.690 --> 01:33:37.150 An inhabited place as a city, village or district. 01:33:38.550 --> 01:33:41.250 Remember this is a live hold, this is in the person's temple. 01:33:42.490 --> 01:33:46.790 A place or a spot when one can settle, abide or dwell. 01:33:48.070 --> 01:33:53.150 The place which a person or thing occupies or has right to, not ride to. 01:33:53.790 --> 01:33:57.110 Hate it when my autocorrect does that stuff. 01:33:57.110 --> 01:34:01.590 The conditioner station held by one in any company or assembly. 01:34:02.910 --> 01:34:05.250 Opportunity power, occasion for acting. 01:34:06.310 --> 01:34:12.270 So literally the word place is describing a spot in the person 01:34:12.270 --> 01:34:16.990 that is open for occupancy to the demonic realm. 01:34:17.970 --> 01:34:20.490 A live hold. We can do that two ways. 01:34:20.630 --> 01:34:24.970 Personal, willful sin, generational, I'll just put those together. 01:34:24.970 --> 01:34:28.050 And not resolving our anger correctly. 01:34:28.630 --> 01:34:31.730 Then it goes through some things that I don't think we have to go over. 01:34:31.870 --> 01:34:33.930 I think they're pretty much self-explanatory. 01:34:34.070 --> 01:34:35.970 It goes back to the scripture and reference it. 01:34:36.090 --> 01:34:38.730 We must to get free of Diabolos. We have to see our anger. 01:34:38.870 --> 01:34:40.390 We have to own it. We have to admit it. 01:34:40.630 --> 01:34:43.650 We have to change some things to get free of him. 01:34:43.690 --> 01:34:46.510 And it gives the things in that section of scripture. 01:34:47.910 --> 01:34:49.170 What we have to deal with. 01:34:49.390 --> 01:34:51.630 Page six, just so we're on the same page with anger. 01:34:51.630 --> 01:34:56.110 Our definition for anger is anger comes from wanting something to stop, 01:34:56.190 --> 01:34:56.910 but it doesn't. 01:35:00.310 --> 01:35:05.890 I got that definition probably 35 years ago. 01:35:06.690 --> 01:35:08.870 Because I couldn't figure out what anger was. 01:35:08.990 --> 01:35:12.230 Because all the things that described it and defined it 01:35:12.230 --> 01:35:13.370 didn't make sense to me. 01:35:13.730 --> 01:35:16.130 Well, then why can God do that and I can't? 01:35:16.310 --> 01:35:17.330 And you know, on and on and on. 01:35:17.930 --> 01:35:21.750 So I went and I studied every scriptural reference 01:35:21.750 --> 01:35:26.350 where God was angry, where it says God was angry. 01:35:26.850 --> 01:35:31.530 And I started seeing a pattern, especially in the Old Testament. 01:35:32.050 --> 01:35:35.150 God became angry with the children of Israel 01:35:35.150 --> 01:35:38.770 when he wanted something to stop and they wouldn't stop it. 01:35:39.570 --> 01:35:40.870 Then he'd get angry. 01:35:42.090 --> 01:35:44.630 So there is my layman's definition of anger. 01:35:46.050 --> 01:35:48.050 Something needs to stop. 01:35:48.050 --> 01:35:51.370 It's that flare inside of us that says this needs to stop. 01:35:51.810 --> 01:35:53.730 And it's not stopping. We get angry. 01:35:54.430 --> 01:35:56.610 And anger comes from unmet expectations, 01:35:56.950 --> 01:36:00.490 which is kind of the other side of the same coin. 01:36:01.110 --> 01:36:03.390 One coin side of the coin is something needs to stop. 01:36:03.730 --> 01:36:06.770 The other side of the coin is... 01:36:06.770 --> 01:36:08.250 Okay, honey. 01:36:09.390 --> 01:36:11.110 When I went to work this morning, 01:36:12.110 --> 01:36:14.130 the kitchen floor was clean. 01:36:16.670 --> 01:36:22.630 Now there's soup all over it and it's even dried on in spots. 01:36:24.350 --> 01:36:26.430 Oh yeah, that happened right after you left. 01:36:26.630 --> 01:36:29.110 And I got busy on the phone and then I had to go out shopping. 01:36:29.350 --> 01:36:31.350 I never got around to cleaning it up. 01:36:32.750 --> 01:36:34.070 That would make me angry. 01:36:35.310 --> 01:36:36.250 Do you know why? 01:36:36.710 --> 01:36:38.170 I wanted to stop, obviously. 01:36:39.310 --> 01:36:41.710 But my expectation would be 01:36:42.310 --> 01:36:45.990 this house cost us hundreds of thousands of dollars. 01:36:46.870 --> 01:36:48.750 And we're going to treat it like this. 01:36:50.290 --> 01:36:51.370 We're going to ruin it. 01:36:54.040 --> 01:36:56.220 I get angry. I want this to stop. 01:36:56.600 --> 01:36:57.440 Okay, there's an example. 01:36:58.700 --> 01:37:00.680 Anger is the type of enemy that in yourself, 01:37:00.840 --> 01:37:01.900 you got to hunt and flush them out. 01:37:02.400 --> 01:37:03.400 It likes to hide. 01:37:03.900 --> 01:37:05.520 It talks about getting rid of Diablos 01:37:06.060 --> 01:37:07.540 and God becoming angry. 01:37:07.660 --> 01:37:09.700 And there's just information there that's good information. 01:37:10.020 --> 01:37:11.780 We're just not going to take the time to go through it. 01:37:15.960 --> 01:37:18.560 On page 8, I'll just mention this. 01:37:19.160 --> 01:37:20.880 Why is unresolved anger so deadly? 01:37:21.220 --> 01:37:22.460 Because it's tied to unforgiveness. 01:37:24.000 --> 01:37:26.860 When we're carrying anger, we have not forgiven. 01:37:28.340 --> 01:37:29.360 We haven't let it go. 01:37:30.360 --> 01:37:31.260 And we're angry about it. 01:37:32.040 --> 01:37:34.180 You have to set the person free. 01:37:34.560 --> 01:37:35.920 Release the person from this. 01:37:36.220 --> 01:37:37.580 And we haven't let it go. 01:37:38.120 --> 01:37:40.240 So unresolved anger takes us... 01:37:40.240 --> 01:37:43.220 it works hand in glove with unforgiveness. 01:37:44.500 --> 01:37:46.000 So you can read the rest of that. 01:37:46.300 --> 01:37:46.940 It'll be fine. 01:37:47.080 --> 01:37:49.320 The last page you read from the top to the bottom, 01:37:49.540 --> 01:37:51.040 that's the progression of that chart. 01:37:52.160 --> 01:37:53.920 It's resolving anger and relationships. 01:37:54.140 --> 01:37:56.980 Outline here is an outline of things that have to be dealt with 01:37:56.980 --> 01:37:58.660 to resolve unresolved anger. 01:37:59.880 --> 01:38:03.060 And it works its way down to the dashed line.
