- This time we're gonna go over the bulletin.
So if you need a bulletin, please raise your hand.
And the ushers will bring you one as soon as possible.
Not a lot of announcements this evening.
So if you could just open up your bulletin.
For left hand corner, once again, it's our service times.
Below that is our soul winning times.
Very bottom is our salvations and baptisms for the year.
On the right side is information about the Father's Day weekend, soul winning hiking
trip.
It's going to be on Friday, June 13th.
And you can see that they're going to have breakfast at 8 a.m., leave the building at
830.
They're going to have lunch in Flagstaff at 1130 a.m. and soul winning from 1 to 5 p.m.
And so on the 14th of June, hiking to the top of Mount Humphrey says the goal.
The church vans will provide transportation on a first come, first served basis.
The church will provide lodging for those who fully participate in Friday's soul winning
RSVP, the Brother Ramon, to secure lodging. The hike to the top of Mount Humphrey's and
back takes approximately eight hours. This is a very difficult hike, suitable only for
the physically very fit. It is six miles each way and very steep. There's also a shorter,
easier hike nearby, or you can just do your part of the Mount Humphrey's hike. However,
if you are traveling in the church van, you will be at the mountain all day long. On the
back of the bulletin, please join us on Sunday, May 25th for our morning and evening services
with guest preacher, Pastor Dylan Oz from Anchor Baptist Church. We'll be here this
coming Sunday, and please continue to pray for the expecting ladies, and the upcoming
events are right there. Take a look at those when you get a chance. Now let's go over the
sowing numbers, starting on my left-hand side. If you've got somebody saved on Thursday,

- Man, at this time we're gonna pass the offering plate
and as we're passing out the offering plate,
please turn your Bibles to Psalm chapter number 34.
Psalm chapter number 34.
- Bible reads, "I will bless the Lord at all times.
"His praise shall continually be in my mouth.
"My soul shall make her boast in the Lord.
"The humble shall hear thereof and be glad.
"Oh, magnify the Lord with me
"and let us exalt his name together.
"I sought the Lord and he heard me
"and delivered me from all my fears.
"They looked unto him and were lightened
"and their faces were not ashamed.
"This poor man cried and the Lord heard him
"and saved him out of all of his troubles.
"The angel of the Lord encampeth round about them
"that fear him and delivereth him.
"Oh, taste and see that the Lord is good.
"Blessed is the man that trusteth in him.
"Oh, fear the Lord, ye his saints,
"for there is no want to them that fear him.
"The young lions do lack and suffer hunger,
"but they that seek the Lord shall not want any good thing.
"Come ye children, hearken unto me.
"I will teach you the fear of the Lord.
"What man is he that desireth life
"and loveth many days that he may see good?
"Keep thy tongue from evil
"and thy lips from speaking guile.
"Depart from evil and do good.
"Seek peace and pursue it.
"The eyes of the Lord are upon the righteous
"and his ears are open under their cry.
"The face of the Lord is against them that do evil.
"To cut off the remembrance of them from the earth.
"The righteous cry and the Lord hear it
"and deliver them out of all their troubles.
"The Lord is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart
"and saveth such as be of a contrite spirit.
"Many are the afflictions of the righteous
"but the Lord delivereth them out of them all.
"He keepeth all his bones.
"Not one of them is broken.
"Evil shall slay the wicked
"and they that hate the righteous shall be desolate.
"The Lord redeemeth the soul of his servants
"and none of them that trust in him shall be desolate."
- Definitely Father Lord, thank you for this church
and thank you Lord for all the soul owners
doing the work for you.
Please fill Brother Seguro with the Holy Spirit
so that he may preach boldly from your preserved words
so that we may be edified by the sermon.
In Jesus name I pray, amen.
- Amen, Psalm 34, the verse I wanna focus on
is right there in verse number 19 that says,
"Many are the afflictions of the righteous,
"but the Lord delivered them out of them all."
The Lord delivered them out of them all.
Go ahead and go to Psalms chapter number 35.
Go to Psalms chapter number 35 and meet me in verse number 14
But quickly, it says clearly that if you're living a righteous life,
you are going to suffer affliction.
You know, you are going to suffer persecution.
So might as well just realize that, hey, it's time if you aren't aware of it,
to start getting ourselves mentally prepared for when the persecution comes in your life.
Because guess what?
Those that live godly in Christ will suffer persecution.
But what I've noticed is the persecution can come in many different ways.
And one of the ways it can come is through mockers.
More specifically, hypocritical mockers.
And that's the title of my sermon, Hypocritical Mockers.
Just go right there to Psalms number 34.
I'm sorry, Psalms 35, verse number 14.
It says, "I behaved myself as though he had been my friend or brother.
I bowed down heavily as one that mourned for his mother.
But in my adversity, they rejoiced and gathered themselves together.
Yea, the abjects gathered themselves together against me, and I knew it not.
They did tear me and seize not.
With hypocritical mockers and feasts, they gnashed upon me with their teeth.
Lord, how long would thou look on?
Rescue my soul from their destructions.
My darling, from the lions, I will give thee thanks in the great congregation.
I will praise thee among much people.
Go to 1 Kings, go to 1 Kings 18, go to meet me in verse number 25, and here David speaks
about people who pretended to be friendly, but they mocked them behind his back.
They were fake, they were cruel, they were full of hate.
And now let's see what the Bible says in regards to these people.
But first I want to start off by saying that mocking people isn't always bad.
Mocking people isn't always bad, but you better make sure that the people that you mock are
wicked people.
Amen?
Evil, wicked people.
Let's take a look at an example.
Let's look at the example of Elijah.
You're right there in 1 Kings, chapter number 18, verse 25, it says, "And Elijah said unto
the prophets of Baal," prophets of the devil, "Choose you one bullock for yourself and dress
the first, for ye are many, and call in the name of your gods, but put no fire under.
And they took the bullock which was given them, and they dressed it and called in the
name of Baal for morning, even until noon, saying, O Baal, hear us.
But there was no voice, nor any that answered, and they leaped upon the altar which was made,
and it came to pass at noon, here's what I want you to notice, that Elijah mocked them
and said, "Cry out loud, for he is a god, either he is talking, or he is pursuing, or
he is in a journey, or, perl venture, he sleepeth and must be awake and dating like what he
said."
And they cried out loud.
And these false prophets, they cut themselves after their manner with knives and lances
till the blood gushed out upon them.
I mean, they're seriously trying to get their God's attention, but there's only one true
God.
And guess what?
He doesn't hear false prophets.
He doesn't hear false brethren.
And yes, you know what?
We have had some false prophets that were among us, and we obviously figured it out,
kicked them out.
And now they're out in the world preaching false doctrine, you know, preaching a false
gospel, preaching something that's going to damn people to hell.
So of course, any opportunity we can, we will expose them.
We will mock them.
And the people out there don't understand what we're doing is because they don't read
their Bible like they should.
I got an email somebody mentioned or somebody listened to a recent sermon, and they're like
great sermon, but you're a jerk because he was mocking individuals like Tyler Baker,
a false prophet that went from being a person we were going to send out to somebody we decided
to just mark and avoid and expose.
Why?
Because he didn't believe in the Trinity.
He didn't believe in the Father and the Son and the Holy Ghost.
He didn't believe that the Father sent the Son to be the Savior of the world.
He believed that the Father sent himself to be the Savior of the world.
And that's a different gospel.
And if you believe that, you need to repent and believe the gospel of Jesus Christ where
Jesus said many times that the Father sent him.
He that sent him has not left him alone, even the Father.
And he says that the Father has not left him alone, and the Father always hears him because
he always does those things that please the Father.
And Jesus says, "No man cometh unto the Father but by me."
But he was adamant that, guess what, Jesus is the Father.
He just transforms himself into the Son when he came to this earth.
Well that's a different gospel, that's damnable heresy, and so we mark him and expose him,
and that's what the Bible says we should do.
But if you think mocking him is bad, well let me remind you what Galatians 1-6 says,
"I marvel that ye are soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto
another gospel, which is not another, but there be some that trouble you, and will pervert
the gospel of Christ.
But though we are an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you, then that which
we have preached unto you, let him be accursed."
That's not a good thing.
Heads up, that's worse than being mocked.
That's wishing someone to be destroyed.
Why?
Because most people are better off in hell than here on earth causing hell by damning
people to hell.
So of course, besides that verse, you've got many verses where Jesus himself, the Lord
himself is going to mock people.
If you have your Bible, go to Psalms 2.
That's one of my favorite ones to go to when it comes down to showing people the nature
of God.
Letting people know that God, he doesn't play.
But I'll just read from Proverbs that says this, "Turn you in my reproof."
This is Proverbs 1.23, "I will pour out my spirit unto you, I will make known my words
unto you because I have called and you refused.
I have stretched out my hand and no man regarded, but ye have said it not all might cancel,
and would none of my reproof.
I will laugh at your calamity," listen to this, "I will mock when your fear cometh."
So God mocks as well.
So mocking is not always bad, contrary to what some people will say.
And here it says, "When your fear cometh as distillation and your destruction cometh
as a whirlwind, when distress and anguish cometh upon you, then shall they call upon
me, but I will not answer."
Sometimes it will be too late by the time you need God's help, so we better make sure
that we have Him on our side.
We're on His side, and obviously it is what it is.
You're here at church tonight because you want to know the word, you want to help to
stay right with the Lord, and preaching does help your faith, and preaching does help you
to get right.
But these microphones don't always stay on right.
Amen?
I had a feeling something.
I'm like, "Who threw something at me?
Really?
It hit my leg.
I'm thinking, "What came from this side?"
They're laughing, Sagan.
I thought it was you.
But then I'm like, "Oh, it's a mic."
So besides that, you're right there in Psalms 2.
Psalms 2.
These people are going to laugh at them.
These wicked people, they go after God's people.
Guess what he's going to do to them?
He's going to pour out his wrath on them.
And it says, "And vex them in his sword displeasure.
Yet have I set my king upon my holy hill of Zion, and with a clear decree, the Lord has
said unto me, Thou art my son, this day have I begotten thee.
Asked of me, and I shall give thee the heathen for thy inheritance, and the othermost parts
of the earth for thy possessions, thou shalt break them with a rod of iron.
That doesn't sound nice.
That sounds worse than mocking.
Not only that, thou shalt dash them in pieces like a potter's vessel.
Be wise now therefore ye kings, be instructed ye judges of the earth, serve the Lord with
fear and rejoice with trembling, kiss the son lest he be angry, and ye perish from
the way when his wrath is kindled but a little, blessed all day to put their trust in him.
Go to Psalms 59 if you can.
Go to Psalms 59.
I don't know how fast you can get there but I'll start reading but meet me in verse number
8.
Just another verse that talks about God laughing at people, mocking them.
Why?
Because they're wicked.
So if you're going to mock someone, better make sure they're wicked because that's what
we make sure before we go after someone that they're being wicked.
Says doubt therefore, O Lord God of hosts, the God of Israel, awake to visit all the
heathen.
Be not merciful to any wicked transgressions, saila.
They return that evening.
They make a noise like a dog and go round about the city.
Behold, they bench out with their mouths, swords or in their lips, who say they doth
hear.
But thou, O Lord, shall laugh at them.
Thou shalt have all the heathen in derision.
Now if you can, go ahead and go to Hebrews, Hebrews chapter number 12.
While you go to Hebrews, I'm going to read from Jude.
And listen, it shouldn't be a surprise.
You know, when people start to mock our church, it shouldn't be a surprise.
When people start to mock you, it shouldn't be a surprise.
If you're trying to live for the Lord, you're doing everything you can to be right with
Him.
And then here comes the minions.
Here comes those that are being controlled by the devil or people that just hate you
because it is what it is when people get backslidden.
There's really no limit to what they can do from murder, adultery, you name it.
You think mocking you is something hard for somebody who's backslidden, probably one of
the easiest things to do.
Why?
Because at the end, they're mad because guess what?
You're righteous and they're not.
And guess what, our pride can blind us to where people are attacking you, thinking they're
doing God a service, but they're not.
And so of course, Jews says, "But beloved, remember ye the words which were spoken before
of the apostles of the Lord Jesus Christ, how they, that they told you there should
be mockers, mockers in the last time, who shall walk," here's their issue, "after
their own ungodly lust.
Peace be they who separate themselves, central," here's another reason why they do it, "having
not the Spirit."
So when you constantly have people attacking and attacking and attacking, it's like we're
for peace but, hey, they're for war.
No matter how peaceful we want to be, people just want to attack and attack and attack
and attack.
Why?
Hey, because it is what it is.
These people aren't sinned.
These people are just being wicked.
Whether they're saved or not, who knows?
But hey, if you doubt people's salvation, if they keep attacking us and attacking us
and attacking us and attacking us, you should.
Because the Bible says blessed are the peace, because they should be called the children
of God.
So what about the reversal?
People that are not about peace constantly want war.
You almost wonder, are you even a child of God?
Do you even have the spirit?
Say why are you constantly attacking?
If we're so bad, hey, all right, fine, then have nothing to do with us like the Bible
says.
Mark us and avoid us if we're so bad.
But the thing is, they're bad, not us.
They're the ones mocking, and not only that, one thing that I've noticed from people that
mock us, if you really stop and think about people, think about people that you know that
mock our church, mock some of our church members, you know what they all tend to have?
Hypocrisy.
And it's not even hard to see.
You're just like, "Man, I can't believe this person is talking so much trash."
Look at the hypocrisy in whatever they're saying.
Look at the hypocrisy in their lives.
It's unbelievable, and the Bible does not disappoint when it talks about hypocritical
mockers.
So you're right there in Hebrews 12.
I'll just read from Hebrews 11, 36, where it reminds us of what Christians went through
in the past.
And it says that others had trials of cruel mockings, cruel mockings.
And it's to wonder how cruel could cruel be, until obviously what we've been seeing lately
when it comes to the attacks on our pastor, where they're mocking him and they're mocking
him with cruelty to the point where it is what it is.
Anybody who Googles him, man, they could think he's the worst thing since the devil.
But we know the truth that, hey, it is what it is.
People behind these videos, people behind these attacks, you can take it to the bank
that they're guilty of one thing and that's being hypocrites.
You can take it to the bank that's one thing that they're guilty of all day long.
But even Jesus Christ, if anybody knows what it's like to be mocked, it's our Lord Jesus
Christ.
Let's take a look at Hebrews.
Hebrews 12.
"And since we're foreseen, we also are encompassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses,
let us lay aside every weight in the sin which does so easily beset us, and let us run with
patience the race that is set before us, looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our
faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame."
Despising the shame.
Go to Matthew 27.
Go to Matthew 27, meet me in verse number 35, while you go to Matthew 27, I'm going
to finish Hebrews.
So go to Matthew 27, 35, it says, "Jesus Christ endured the cross, despising the shame,
and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.
For God hinders him that endures such contradiction to sinners against himself, lest ye be weary
and faint in your minds.
Ye have not yet resisted unto blood, striving against him, and ye have forgotten the exhortation
which speaks unto you as unto children.
My son despised not the chastisement of the Lord, nor faint when thou rebuked of him."
And one of the reasons why mockers do what they do is because they're trying to get
you to quit.
They're trying to get you to give up.
They're trying to get you to just stop.
They're trying to get you to just wave the white flag.
Why?
Because that's what their goal is, to destroy the work of the Lord.
That's the whole goal, is to come after you because it is what it is.
They're evil, you're righteous, and they want you to quit because that's what they
are, a bunch of evil individuals, but they don't see themselves as that.
But we can see it all day long.
And obviously if anybody understands, if you're going through something, you're being mocked
and somebody's coming after you on the internet, whatever the case may be, it may not be today,
it may not be tomorrow, but listen, the Bible says that, "Hey, many of the afflictions are
the righteous."
So if you're not suffering any affliction whatsoever in your life, I might need to wonder
if you're actually righteous.
Just kidding, amen.
You're like, "I haven't been afflicted in a while, what you trying to say?"
It's coming is what I'm trying to say.
But don't forget, when it comes, it's because they're trying to get you to quit.
When it comes, don't forget that Christ knows exactly what you're going through.
Let's take a look once again what He went through.
Verse 20, I believe 35 in chapter 27 says, "And they crucified Him and parted His garments,
casting lots that it might be fulfilled, which was spoken by the prophet.
They parted My garments among them, and upon My vestures did they cast lots.
And sitting down, they washed them there, and set up over His head His accusations
written, 'This is Jesus, the King of the Jews.'
And when there were two thieves crucified with Him, one on the right hand and another
on the left, and they that passed by reviled Him, wagging their heads and saying, 'Thou
that destroyest the temple, and buildest it in three days, save thyself, if thou be the
Son of God, come down from the cross.'
And it says likewise also, in case you didn't notice, He's being mocked.
Likewise also, the chief priest mocking Him.
So if anybody knows about being mocked, you better take it to the bank that is our Lord
and Savior Jesus Christ.
So whenever you get to that point when you're so righteous that you're getting attacked
left and right, people trying to take you down, people trying to get you to quit, just
look up and realize, "Hey Lord, I know you went through worse, so by all means, hey,
give me that strength that you had in order to make it through this persecution."
But if you have your Bibles, go ahead and go to, if you can, Matthew 7, because one
part is mocking, the other part is hypocrisy, hypocrisy.
And I need to kind of remind you guys tonight, really quickly, I'm not going to take too
long, I'm 15 minutes in, I just want to go over some verses to remind us to be careful
of hypocrisy, how much Christ hates hypocrisy, how much he preached against hypocrisy, which
should make you think twice if you ever want to say something that you know you're not
going to do, but also require other people to do it.
So in Matthew 7.3, I'm not sure if you're there, but I'll just read, "And why behold
is thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but consider it not the beam that is
in thy own eye?
Or how would thou say to thy brother, let me pull out the mote out of thine eye?
And behold, a beam is in thy own eye, thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of
thy own eye, and then should thou seek clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother's
eye."
You're going a lot just from these verses.
Number one, Christ doesn't like hypocrisy.
Number two, what does it say?
Hey, your hypocrisy has blinded you, so why do we have these people not just mocking us
but being hypocrites about it as well, living a hypocritical life?
It's because they're blinded.
They got that beam that they can't see clearly.
You know, they want to attack you for whatever you're doing while they're doing worse?
It just blows my mind.
Hypocritical mockers, the Bible does not disappoint when you see it in live action.
But if you have your Bible, go to Romans 2.
Go to Romans 2.
You can go ahead and meet me in verse number 17.
Actually, if you go to Romans, go ahead and meet me in verse 1.
Romans 2, 1 says, "Therefore thou art inexcusable, O man.
Whosoever thou art that judges, wherein thou judges another, thou condemnest thyself for
thou that judges doeth the same things."
Verse number 7, "To them who by pageant continuing and well-doing seek for glory and honor and
immortality, eternal life, behold, thou are called a Jew and restest in the law, makest
thy boast of God, and knowest his will and approves of things that are more excellent
being instructed out of the law, and are confident that thou thyself are a guide of the blind,
a light to them which are in darkness, an instructor of the foolish, a teacher of babes,
which has the form of knowledge and of the truth in the law.
Thou therefore which teacheth another teacheth thou not thyself.
Thou that preachest a man should not steal, does that steal?
Thou that sayest a man should not commit adultery, does thou commit adultery?
Thou there, you need to be teaching yourself, because you're not even the person that should
be speaking, because you're literally committing sins, you know, as clear as day, but yet you're
attacking other people for whatever sins you think they're up to.
And so this is what you're going to see as time goes by, people that come in, they partake,
they taste of the heavenly gift, they become among us, and then for whatever reason, they
just turn out to be bad, we get rid of them, and then they go on that campaign to attack
people in our church, they go on that campaign to attack the leadership of the church for
no other reason, then they're a bunch of hypocritical, evil, disgusting pieces of dung.
Hopefully that's clear enough, amen?
And I'm thinking of this one particular person, I already hear some laughing so you probably
know who it is, but I don't want to dishonor the house of God by bringing up his name,
so I'll give him a nickname.
I'll give him a nickname that I think best fits him because of the stuff that's out
there about him, and this is the individual that just thinks that he's doing God's will,
he said it.
God has chosen me, you know, God has chosen me to expose all you people, you know.
From this moment on, we'll just call him the pothead prophet, amen.
We'll just have him be known as the pothead prophet.
The pothead prophet, I don't even know what he's up to as of right now because honestly,
I don't care because I know I'm about to share with you guys three things about these
mockers, these hypocritical mockers that are for sure legit in regards to them.
But also, I want to read from Galatians where it talks about rebuking people that are being
hypocrites.
Here's one individual that got rebuked, Peter got rebuked by Paul, it says, "But when Peter
was come to Antioch, I withstood him to the face because he was to be blamed."
And what was he to be blamed?
It says in verse 14, "But when I saw that they walked not uprightly according to the
truth of the gospel, I said unto Peter before them all, 'If thou, being a Jew, livest
after the manner of the Gentiles, and not as do the Jews, why compelest thou the Gentiles
to live as do the Jews?'"
That's kind of hard to kind of figure out just by me saying it this way.
But what he's saying is like, "Peter, why are you living like a Gentile, but you're
requiring the Gentile to live as Jews when you're not living as a Jew?"
That's hypocrisy, Peter.
But we shouldn't be going after people.
It's like, "Hey, we need to do things differently."
But yet, this is almost like, if you think about it, everything that goes online, everybody
likes to say, "Hey, what goes on the internet is there forever."
Who's heard people say that?
Obviously, it's not literally going to happen because God's going to get rid of everything
that offends even those videos out there about you, you're not too proud of, amen?
But this is legit.
It's like, hey, here was Peter who didn't even think for one second that this was going
to be eternal, him being a hypocrite.
I don't think he knew what was going to happen.
This is like his internet where he's being repuked.
He's being exposed for hypocrisy.
But this is legit for all eternity, amen?
So what you do in life echoes an eternity.
Who knows what movie that is?
I knew you were going to know.
Don't Google it.
It's not that bad of a movie, but that's what I think of when I think of this.
Peter, what you do in life echoes an eternity, my man.
And now forever he's going to be known as the hypocrite.
No, I'm just kidding.
But this is something that obviously is a big deal to Paul because it's a wicked thing
to be a hypocrite.
And if it ain't bad enough that you're going to be a hypocrite, then you go out there and
mock people as a hypocritical mocker.
And so of course the prophet, pothead, pothead, prophet, whatever you want to call him, is
going around attacking certain people in our ministry.
I mean, me, I don't really care, but obviously in case you didn't know, me and Ramon, he
reprobated us, you know.
He's like, oh yeah, the leadership, for sure they reprobate.
Okay, where's your receipts?
Where's my damn noble heresy?
Let's play this game.
Who went around for at least two years preaching damn noble heresy to anybody and everybody
he could, you know, when he was in his early twenties, was it the pothead prophet or was
it brother Ramon?
For those that know the pothead prophet, it was the pothead prophet.
He went around preaching damn noble heresy for two straight years, probably even more
because he was an ex-Mormon, went to the mission field, got out of the mission field and just
got into all kinds of sin and he likes to brag about it sometimes, which is hypocrisy.
But once again, let's play it again.
Who has been chastised multiple times while they were here at Faithful Word Baptist Church?
Was it the pothead prophet or was it brother Ramon?
Brother Ramon, how many times have we kicked you out?
Zero!
Razor die!
That's a marine thing.
How many times did we almost kick out the pothead prophet before we supposedly finally
kicked him out?
What do you say Ramon, at least three times just to be conservative?
At least three times you almost got kicked out.
Brother Ramon, how many times did you almost get kicked out?
Zero!
Amazing.
How many times has Brother Ramon gotten up behind the pulpit and flat out lied, knowing
that he was lying?
Flat out lied.
How many times has Brother Ramon gotten up behind the pulpit and told a cold stone lie
to those that were in front of him listening?
How many people can raise their hand and say, "I know at least one time."
Ramon, how many times have you preached behind this pulpit?
Zero!
I'm not talking about the preaching class, but the pothead prophet got behind some other
churches pulpit and got up, and I didn't really care about logging in everything he said.
One is one enough, but he gets up and he says, "Oh yeah, when Faithful Word Baptist Church
kicked me out and I was a spiritual refugee," because these people are puffed up in their
own mind, "and for the record, is Brother Eric here?"
No, he's over there, right, at the KJV conference?
All right, well at least I got you, Brother Ramon's here.
So this is what really happened, and let me make it very clear.
This wasn't like an error that the pothead prophet, you know, told behind the pulpit.
He knew when he was speaking to this whatever church that he's now going to, he knew he
was lying.
And he said, "Oh yeah, when faithful work kicked me out," and Ramon, did we ever kick
out the pothead prophet?
We never kicked him out, but we did chastise him, and we specifically told him multiple
times.
How many times did I tell him, "Hey, we are not kicking you out, just to be clear"?
How many times did I say that?
A lot.
More than one?
More than two?
More than three?
More than four?
More than five?
More than six?
Right?
Because I knew what he was going to do.
Did I not?
So I knew that he was going to fail his assignment, and I told the pothead prophet, the pothead
prophet, I said, "Listen, you can fellowship with anybody at Faithful Work, anybody.
You are not getting kicked out.
You are not getting kicked out, but you need to take a break from Faithful Work.
You're going nuts on social media.
You can't handle Facebook, my boy.
You're going to have a heart attack before you turn 50, because he would just go wild
on Facebook and just start saying all kinds of wild stuff.
And people are like, "This is Faithful Work's church member?"
So after multiple opportunities, after multiple opportunities, after multiple opportunities,
we just said, "Hey, listen, you need to take a break from Faithful Work.
You got to go somewhere else for at least six months to chill, you know, get your bearings
and come back, I believe, better than ever, because you're saying, "Oh, look at all these
people I'm going to save.
Look how on fire I am for the Lord.
Look how much I do."
Okay, then you know what?
Why don't you take your butt to a dead church and go revive it, since you're so good, since
you're so awesome.
And so we specifically said, "You can fellowship with anybody you want.
You're not getting kicked out, but we need you to take a break.
You are losing your mind.
We need you to go somewhere else."
And he said, "Where shall I go?
You guys have the words of eternal life."
I'm like, "Hey, I'm not falling for that."
And we said, "Listen, you can go to this church, right?
Or you can go to this church."
Didn't we say that?
Specifically, we told him two churches to go to, and we said, "Go there for six months,
be a blessing to the pastor, and then after six months, July 1st," did we not tell him
July 1st?
He said, "July 1st, hey, tell the pastor, hey, it was great being in your church, but
I'm going back to Faithful Word, you know, and I want you to tell me the pastor's cell
number so I can call him and verify you're actually a blessing and not a pain, because
hey, if they can't hang in the old IFV, we don't want them here.
That was his assignment.
And let me tell you something, if I really want to be a part of Faithful Word, I would
have passed that assignment easy.
Easy, I would have passed it.
But no, he doesn't do that.
He says, "I ain't going nowhere."
And then sure enough, he's apologizing, and what did I say, Ramon?
I said something to this level.
I said, "Listen, I'm being honest with you.
I think you're going to fail, and you're going to fail bad.
I think you're going to get bitter.
You're going to get backslidden.
You're not coming back.
You're going to go somewhere else.
You're going to talk a bunch of smack.
You're just going to go downhill quick style."
Then I say that, he's like, "I don't think you're going to make it.
I think the odds are against you.
Prove me wrong, pothead prophet."
Didn't I say that?
He said, "Prove me wrong that we're all wrong about you."
And guess what?
Everything I said came to pass, did it not?
And he wants to attack us because we don't have discernment.
That's his big thing.
He has so much discernment that he couldn't tell that we were recording him.
How long did we record the dude?
For like an hour?
And so he went behind a pulpit and lied his face off because he didn't think we recorded
him.
And go ahead and sue us if you want.
Arizona don't play like that, but we all knew at this point, and even like a year before,
you know, it was what it was.
Brother Raymond's like, "Hey, I think this guy's a bad dude."
Me personally, I don't think these Mormon kids that go on these mission trips and preach
damnable heresy for two years are actually able to be saved.
But I hope I'm wrong.
And I'm like, "Well, time will tell, Brother Raymond."
And Brother Raymond was right.
This guy doesn't care about doing what's right.
Right now all he cares about is destroying our church, the cult, right?
And then of course he knows what he's doing.
He doesn't want to call out Pastor Anderson as a reprobate because he knows that we're
all going to go after him and be like, "Then you're a blind fool if you can't see the
works that he's done."
People are here because Pastor got them saved.
And this guy wants to act like, "Oh no, everybody at Faithful Word is pretty much reprobates,
especially the leadership."
Well how many times did you preach damnable heresy, Ramon?
How many times did you lie behind this pulpit?
How many times did you have beefs with church members where we have to get involved multiple
times?
And excuse me if I doubt it's salvation, but the Bible says, "Blessed are the peacemakers
for they should be called the children of God."
So what's the reversal?
I'm sorry, but person is whatever the opposite of peacemaker is, for they're not going to
be called the child of God.
And people that are helping and going to war with us, it's hard for me to even believe
they're safe because I'm thinking, "Man, you're going after a pastor."
And of course, I'm thinking, "Man, well, I don't know what to say."
You know, because there's people that just attack and they don't think twice, but they're
total hypocrites, i.e. some guy named Gessler, who's seen that message that he put up?
That's another guy that I'm thinking, "Man, this guy filled with hypocrisy, just wants
to mock.
He's a hypocritical mocker."
He said, "If you're a pope," so now what is he doing?
"Calling our pastor a false prophet."
If you're a pope needs to block someone for asking questions, he's the B-word.
Is that what the Bible tells you to do with elders that you don't get along with?
Last time I checked, it says, "Hey, don't attack elders."
That's God talking, not pastors talking.
And so he wants to have a picture of some skeleton on his profile, like he's attacking
our pastor saying he's wicked.
And then that wasn't the only message.
He started saying other things, that you're this, you're that.
He's straight up mouthing off to a man of God.
Well, at the same time, he has a profile of some skeleton, some skeleton that represents
death.
And last time I checked, those that love death hate the Lord.
So excuse me if I doubted your salvation, bro.
But you know what?
If any of you guys do that, you're going to be gone real quick.
If anybody were to do something like that to like Pastor Jimenez, call him the B-word,
and we find out it's like, nope, you apologize or you're gone.
Because that's a railing accusation.
He's not a pope, he's not a false prophet, he's not the B-word, we're not going to let
that slide.
And for him to attack our pastor using profanity, having a skull, some kind of weird image,
I don't know what to say besides, hey, that's a hypocritical mocker right there.
And we need to mark him and avoid him.
That's just the way it is.
And we're not out to fight everyone because it is what it is.
The Bible says to not strive with people without a cause, if they have done us no harm.
And so these people are just going to continue and continue and continue and continue and
continue to attack us while being hypocrites the entire time.
And you know what?
God sees it and he doesn't like it.
And it's not fun getting attacked.
It's not fun when they make videos about you.
It's not fun when they're saying things about you or your wife or whoever.
But let me remind you three things that I think you need to know when these hypocritical mockers
come after you.
Number one, that all these hypocritical mockers, all these hypocrites that mock us, attack
us, they're all heading for destruction.
Every single one of them.
So you don't have to get your shotgun and go out for blood, okay?
Hey, leave that thing at home.
Let God do his work.
If you can, I'm going to read from Luke 18, go to 2 Kings 2.
I'm going to read from Luke 18, I'm 34 minutes into it, I'm going to wrap it up hopefully
in the next 10-15 minutes.
The introduction was a little slow, I didn't want to get into too much drama, but I do
want to make sure that hey, it is what it is.
At some point, if you're obviously a righteous person, you're going to suffer affliction,
and guess what?
You will suffer persecution, and that's really what this mockery is, it's just persecution,
but it's a lot of affliction, and I'll talk about that in a second.
But Luke 18 says this, and he spake a parable unto them to this end, that men ought to always
pray and not faint, saying there was in a city a judge, which feared not God, not a
regarded man, and there was a widow in that city, and she came out to him, saying, "Avenge
me of my adversary."
And he went not for a while, but afterwards he said within himself, "Though I fear not
God, nor regard man, yet because this widow troubles me, I will avenge her."
Lest by her continual coming she worry me.
And the Lord said, "Hear what the unjust judge saith, and shall not God avenge his own elect,
which cried day and night unto him, though he bear long with them?
I tell you that he will avenge them speedily, speedily.
May not be today, may not be tomorrow, but you can take it to the bank that these people
on the internet mocking us, attacking us while they're total hypocrites.
Guess what it says?
It says that God will avenge us speedily, or avenge you speedily.
You wait and see, it's going to happen.
Nevertheless, when the Son of Man comes, shall he find faith on the earth?
So just stay faithful if these people don't repent, and obviously if they're able to repent,
we don't want them to be destroyed.
We want to pray and say, "God, be merciful unto them.
Have the Spirit of Abraham.
Lord, if I find ten in the city, will you destroy it for lack of ten?
I will not destroy it for lack of ten."
We want, obviously, these people to repent and be right with him, and I don't know Adam
Gessler that much, but honestly I don't have any issues with him.
I know they're on the internet mouthing off, know a little bit about his wife where she's
constantly saying things here and there.
He called me a liar because of something I said about Mrs. McMurtry.
He's a godbrother, he's just a liar.
He was just saying all kinds of lies about Mrs. McMurtry.
The only thing I said is that she's pro-childbirth or birth control, the only thing I said is
that she's not for spanking teenagers.
I said that she's about a spouse leaving whenever they want, Christian separation.
That's the kind of stuff I was attacking, and then she was saying, "Oh, she never said
that."
No, she totally said that.
If you're going to call me a liar, that's fine.
Tell me where I lied.
If I lied, it was accidental.
I'm not like the pothead prophet that straight up lies and he knows he's lying.
If I say something that's not true, I'm not being malicious about it.
I'm human just like everybody else, and I'll apologize and I'll correct it, but she didn't
say anything about that.
She just went after me and said, "Whatever," and I'm like, "You know what?
God bless her."
Why?
Because she's persecuting me, but the Bible says, "Blessed and to persecute you, blessed
and cursed not."
So I'm not out to curse her in the name of the Lord.
Where we see right here in 2 Kings, well, somebody does curse him, and that's totally
okay if you do it as well.
So here's some mockers that got destroyed because God will destroy the mockers.
He hates hypocrisy, he hates people mocking good people, and here's the story of people
mocking the man of God, and let's see what happened.
And he went up from Thess, talking about Elijah, out to Bethel, and as he was going up by the
way, they came forth little children out of the city and mocked them, and said unto him,
"Go up thou ball head, go up thou ball head."
And he turned back and looked on them and cursed them in the name of the Lord, and there
came forth two she-bears out of the woods and teared forty and two children.
I don't think they became mockers on the spot.
I think these kids were doing this before they met Elijah.
And just like any other mocker out there, they're heading for destruction.
May not be today, may not be tomorrow, but you can take it to the bank, keep watching.
Destruction will come.
The episode where they get punished, they get destroyed, oh it's coming.
Because the Bible promises that these wicked people, the fear of the wicked, it shall come
upon them.
And that desire of the righteous is going to be granted.
So one way to know who's right, who's wrong, just give it time.
Because hey, if you're wicked, you're going to suffer.
We're going to see it.
Your fears, they're going to come true.
And if you're righteous, hey, you're going to be redeemed.
God says that the persecution, God's going to deliver us from all of them.
I forgot exactly where it is in the Bible, but that's what the Bible says.
The persecutions, he's going to deliver them.
He's going to make things right.
Obviously, it was what it was.
Job wasn't being mocked, but he was falsely accused.
I redeemed him at the end.
There's always a happy ending for those that stay with the Lord and continue on the path
and don't quit.
And here's more evidence.
Proverbs 1.23, you guys can, what time is it?
39 minutes in?
All right, I'll start wrapping up.
I'll go to Matthew 5, and see, here's the funny thing.
If I were to mock someone and I had half of, I guess you can say, my spiritual brain working,
the last person I would go after is somebody that has children.
That's the last person I would go after.
Because maybe the parent may not be right with the Lord, okay fine.
Maybe they don't deserve God avenging them quickly because they may be a little back
flitting, okay fine.
But you know what the Bible says, that it's better for you to tie something around your
neck than to offend one of these little ones because the Lord always has their ears.
Now imagine that, you're mocking some kid's father or mother and they go to God, oh he's
going to listen.
If he doesn't do it for the parents, hey he'll do it for that child because they always have
God's ear.
Children, they always have the ear of the Lord, the angel of the Lord encuppets around
us, yes.
But you know what, if that child goes to Christ and he starts saying, "Lord, this person making
fun of my daddy, I pray that you do something about it," it's probably going to happen
more quicker than usual if that kid does that.
So I don't know, if y'all ever get backslidden, just letting you know, I got eight kids, amen.
And one out of eight is probably right with the Lord.
So keep messing with me and you're about to find out, right guys?
Hey, pray for dad, pray for me to be avenged, okay?
The Lord don't listen to me, He'll listen to you, He'll listen to you, where's my other
ones?
He'll listen to you, He'll listen to you.
Shoojah, He'll listen to you, okay?
Say, "Ace, punish this person making fun of my daddy," just saying.
Besides that, Romans 12 and 9 says, "Dearly beloved, avenge not yourself, but rather get
placed unto wrath for it is written, 'Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord.'"
Okay, so another thing I want to remind you guys of tonight, don't worry, I'm almost done,
I got two more, is that these hypocritical mockers, as a pain in the butt as they are,
you know, as hurtful as they can get, never forget at the end of the day, if you're a born-again
Christian, hey, they're helping you get rewards. They're helping you get rewards, and they're
coming after you because you're righteous and they're evil. Let's take a look at Matthew 5
8. "Blessed are the pure in heart." So if you have a pure heart, they shall see God. "Blessed are the
peacemakers, for they shall be called the children of God. Blessed are they which are persecuted for
righteousness sake, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are ye when man shall revile you
and persecute you." And let's take a look at the next words. "And shall say all manner of evil
against you falsely for my sake." And what did Jesus say? Go to a corner and start crying? Is
that what he tells us to do? No. He says, "Rejoice and be exceeding glad. For great is your reward in
heaven. For so persecuted they the prophets which were before you." So as much as I would want these
people to just die if I snap my fingers, you know what? If it really stopped to think about it,
it's kind of like no. If I actually had an option where if I could push a button and they all be
dead tonight, I probably wouldn't push it here. Why? Because it's easy rewards. It's easy money.
True or false? Don't pay attention. It's like, "Hey man, he's making videos about you good. I'm
not going to watch a single one. Tell him to keep it going because I want to keep some rewards coming."
That's just facts, is it not? And it reminds me of, who's ever heard of The Ultimate Fighter Show?
Some of you have. There was this one episode, old episode, where they had a guy in the house.
There's a show about fighters that are living in the house, you know, and they're fighting for a
contract. But there was this one fighter who was a pain in the butt, constantly mocking people,
constantly causing issues with other guys in the house. And the rules were you weren't allowed to
fight in the house. But this guy was being such a pain, you know, which is making fun of everyone,
just a total pain in the butt that they were about to beat the living daylights out of this guy,
where the guy of the show, the main guy, Dana White, had to get involved and he's like, "Okay,
guys, what's going on? Come tell me." And they're like, "This guy's being a pain. He's constantly
messing with us. It's like, man, we just want him out of here or whatever." And Dana White sat there
and he's like, "Okay, I got an idea. I could kick him off the show or I can leave him here and you
guys can make easy money." And they're like, "What?" Because they got paid $5,000 for every match that
they had. And they're like, "Hey, you think this guy is easy work?" "Absolutely. You know, I'm about
to knock him out. How about this? Why don't you fight him for five grand?" And then he gets kicked
out of the house. Because if you lose, you're gone. Guess what? They quickly changed their mind.
They're like, "Nope, let him in. Hey, let me be the one that fights the guy." So he ended up fighting
and he got his butt whooped because he was just a bully in the house. The guy got paid. There was
like a $5,000 sponsorship by Burger King or whatever the case. And sure enough, they made
an easy five G's and they're like, "Yeah, I'm glad we didn't get this guy out of here. I'm glad we're
able to make some easy money off him." But that's the same way with these persecutors. You name the
persecutor. The more videos they make on whoever, the more rewards you're going to have in heaven,
or am I off? So do you rather get rid of him tonight or let him continue with his BS? Because
at the end of the day, hey, we all know what's the deal. If dumb people on the internet fall for it,
then that's on them. But it's like, hey, do I really want to give up easy rewards? You know,
no, I don't. Because at the end of the day, no one's persecuting us. No one's trying to kill us.
And it is what it is. It's a light affliction, which is by the moment. And maybe you guys are
like, well, no one's persecuting me. Well, keep, keep living for God. It's coming. The videos will
come. Somebody will dig up your past, come up with something. And I got a verse for you. There's a
verse in the Bible that says, let the redeemed of the Lord say so. Who's heard that verse before?
Well, I'm taking it out of context, but I think of that verse whenever I hear about persecution,
because it was somebody, I think it was T.D. Jakes who used that verse for his congregation,
you know, to handle persecution. But because he is not a man of God and he doesn't understand
scripture, he literally thought that that verse meant something like this. When somebody's digging
up some stuff in your past, when somebody's rubbing, you know, whatever in your face that
you did years ago, you just take this verse and you say, "Let the Lord's redeemed say, 'So?'"
You used to be a hooker, "So?" You used to be a pothead, "So?" You used to do this, "So?" Why you
always say, "So?" Let the Lord's redeemed say, "So?" And I'm saying tonight when they rub stuff
in your face, "So?" These dirty hypocrites trying to make fun of me. And you did this. Not true.
Or believe it, "So?" This is getting richer by the second. Every view on that video is another
reward for you. Hope they make millions and millions and millions of views. I gotta finish
before I break something else. But hey, Peter said this. Stop. Hope Pastor's not watching
because then Ramon will be doing all the preaching. But rejoice as much as you are partakers of
Christ's sufferings that when his glory should be revealed, ye may be glad also with exceeding joy
if ye be reproached for the name of Christ. Happy are ye. So yeah, of course, you'll find out that
somebody's talking smack. Somebody made a dumb video. Obviously, it's a bunch of lies in disguise
and you're getting mad. Well, the Bible says be ye angry and say not, right? So pretty much, hey,
get angry, you know, get mad, but also get glad because great is a reward in heaven. And don't
let the sun go down upon your wrath. Amen. So when you see these videos and it will come,
it is what it is you're human. When you get mad, be mad, be ye angry, but say not and then rejoice
and leave for joy for great is a reward in heaven. So of course, hey, God is angry with the wicked
every day. And if you're angry over whatever comes out there, you know what? God's angry as well.
And if they don't repent, you can take it to the bank. They will be destroyed. But not yet,
because I need some easy rewards. Amen. And the last thing is having these haters will keep you
humble. And that's always a good thing. I'll wrap it up with this. Second Corinthians 12 says this,
"For though I would desire the glory, I shall not be a fool, for I would say the truth. But now I
forbear lest any man should think of me above that which he see of me to be, or that he heareth of me,
unless I should be exalted above measure, though the abundance of the revelations that were given
to me a thorn in the flesh, the messenger of Satan. And that's what these hypocritical mockers are.
They're messengers of Satan. The pothead prophet was preaching Satan's gospel for two years,
and it's not a shocker that he's now one of the biggest whatever mockers that we have out there
just talking bad about our church members that are here, but where are they at? Oh that's right,
smoking pot probably because that's what they do to cope with their crappy life. And it's funny how
they want to blame us because oh yeah going to Faithful Word made me such a devil. Well I don't
know but I've been going to Faithful Word for almost 20 years and I'm not even close to the
way you're acting devil. And they want to say oh yeah Faithful Word Baptist Church you know what
it'll turn you into this this hater or whatever the case. Yet he did a video and this is how he
finishes this video. You know what Chris the Guru you know what F Ramon you know what F brother such
and such. Sounds to me like hey he hasn't been a faithful word I think it's just him but he doesn't
realize it. And hey if you can't even control your tongue your religion is vain. So this hypocrite
wants to make a 20 minute video with also another member who left who he better not be talking
trash because if he's going to talk trash about me he's got to make up lies because I was nothing
but nice to this dude hopping him out guiding him but now he left and he's paired up with the pothead
prophet making videos against our church and it's all lies and if you're such a spiritual individual
imagine an unsafe person listening to your video and you finish the video with f christen grah
f brother ramon f faithful word oh yeah he's filled with the spirit all right but once again
it is what it is it makes you angry but don't sin be angry but sin not and as long as they
keep these videos coming it'll keep us on our knees and it's like lord you know what you could do a
lot worse to me you're gonna allow me to go through way worse than some guy making dumb videos about
me but you know what it is what it is is another reminder to just keep focusing on you because you
can protect me against whatever evil is out there to get me and so it says unless i should be exalted
above measure you know a messenger of satan to buffet me unless i should be exalted above measure
for this thing up itself the lord thrice that it might depart from me and he said unto me my grace
is efficient for thee my strength is made perfect in weakness most gladly therefore will i rather
glory in my infirmities that the power of christ mess rests upon me so bottom line is sometimes
god won't remove things in our lives to keep us humble because we're given so much knowledge
i mean we know a lot more probably than the average baptist church out there because our
pastor does a great job teaching us the word and we take it serious and we read the word a lot
and so of course if we continue on this path we're going to know so much in 10 years 20 years
but of course you know knowledge puff this up so god may have to do something some thorn in the
flesh to keep you under control so that you don't become a prideful hater and leave faithful word
because it's no longer how it was 20 years ago you get so puffed up in your mind you end up
leaving for all the wrong reasons and you destroy your own life and then you become a hypocritical
