Thank you very much.
Thank you.
On the first song, song number 129, Rock of Ages.
On the first.
Be of sin the double cure.
Stay from wrath and make me pure.
Could my tears forever flow?
Could my zeal, no anger, no.
These for sin could not atone.
Thou must stay, then thou alone.
In my hand, O Christ I bring.
Simply to thy cross I cling.
While I draw this fleeting breath.
When my eyes shall close in death.
When I rise to worlds unknown.
And behold, beyond thy throne.
Rock of ages left for me.
Let me hide myself in thee.
Amen.
All right.
Go ahead and turn your handles to song number 100.
Song number 100.

Next song.
Song number 100, Day by Day.
On the first.
Day by day and with deep fasting moments.
Drinks I find to meet my trials here.
Frosting in my father's wise bestowments.
I've no cause for worry or fulfill.
He who's heart is kind beyond all measure.
Is unto each day what he deems best.
Lovingly is part of pain and pleasure.
Mingling full with peace and rest.
Every day the Lord himself is near me.
With a special mercy for each hour.
All my cares he fain would bear and share me.
He who's name is counselor in power.
The protection of his child in treasure.
Is a charge that on himself he lays.
As thy days thy strength shall be in measure.
This the pledge to be made.
Help me then in every tribulation.
So to trust thy promises oh Lord.
That I lose my faithly consolation.
Offered me within thy holy word.
Help me Lord with toil and trouble meeting.
There to take death from a father's hand.
One by one the days the moment's fleeting.
Till I reach the promised land.
Go ahead and pull out your bulletins.

I mean third song.
169.
Come Thou Fount.
Song number 169, Come Thou Fount.
On the first.
Come thou fount of every blessing
To my heart to sing thy grace
Strings of mercy never ceasing
Song for songs of loudest praise
Teach me some melody sonnet
Sung by flaming tongues above
Praise the mount I'm fixed upon it
Mount of thy redeeming love
Here I raise my Naboneser
Tither by thy help I come
And I know by thy good pleasure
Safely I'll arrive at home
Jesus sought me when a stranger
Wandering from the fold of God
He to rescue me from danger
Interposed his precious blood
Oh to grace how great a debtor
Daily I'm constrained to be
Let thy goodness like a fetter
By my wandering heart to thee
Prone to wonder Lord I feel it
Prone to lead the God I love
Here's my heart oh take and steal it
Steal it for thy courts above
Wherefore laying aside all malice and all guile
And apocrisies and envies and all evil speak
In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ
If so be ye have tasted that the Lord is gracious
To whom coming as unto a living stone
Disallowed indeed of men, but chosen of God, and precious
Ye also as lively stones are built up
A spiritual house in holy priesthood
To offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God
In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ
To offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God by Jesus Christ
Wherefore also it is contained in the scripture
Behold I lay in Zion a chief cornerstone
Elect, precious, and he that believeth on him shall not be confounded
Unto you therefore which believe he is precious
But unto them which be disobedient
The stone which the builders disallowed
The same is made the head of the corner
In a stone of stumbling and a rock of offense
Even to them which stumble at the word being disobedient
Whereunto also they were appointed
But ye are a chosen generation
A royal priesthood and holy nation
A peculiar people that you should show forth the praises of him
That have called you out of darkness into his marvelous light
Which in time past were not a people
But are now the people of God
Which had not obtained mercy but now have obtained mercy
Dearly beloved, I beseech you as strangers and pilgrims
Abstain from fleshly lust which war against the soul
Having your conversation on us among the Gentiles
That whereas they speak against you as evildoers
They may by your good works which they shall behold
Glorify God in the day of visitation
Submit yourselves to every ordinance of man
For the Lord's sake whether it be to the king as supreme
Or unto governors as unto them that are sent by him
For the punishment of evildoers
And for the praise of them that do well
For so is the will of God that with well-doing
Ye may put to silence the ignorance of foolish men
As free and not using your liberty for a cloak of maliciousness
But as the servants of God
Honor all men, love the brotherhood
Fear God, honor the king
Servants, be subject to your masters with all fear
Not only to the good and gentle but also to the froward
For this is thankworthy, a man for conscious toward God
And dear grief, suffering wrongfully
For what glory is it if when ye be buffeted for your faults
Ye shall take it patiently
But if when ye do well and suffer for it
You take it patiently, this is acceptable of God
For even here unto were ye called
Because Christ also suffered for us
Leaving us an example that ye should follow his steps
Who did no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth
Who when he was revolved, revolved not again
When he suffered, he threatened not
But committed himself to him that judgeth righteously
Who his own self bear are sins in his own body on the tree
That we, being dead to sins, should live into righteousness
By whose stripes ye were healed
For ye were as sheep going astray
But now are returned unto the shepherd and bishop of your souls
I'll bow our heads real quick with a prayer
Amen. Amen. 1 Peter chapter number 2
The verse that I want to focus on
Is right there in verse number 17
It says this, honor all men, love the brotherhood
Love the brotherhood
And that's what I want to preach about tonight
Is loving the brotherhood, loving the brotherhood
And I want to start out by defining two words
One love and the other one brotherhood
I'll start with brotherhood
Brotherhood is found twice in the Bible
One is referring to the brotherhood of a couple of individuals
So it's talking about a physical brotherhood
And the other verse is right here in verse number 17
We're being instructed, yes, to honor all men
Believers, unbelievers
But then it mentions, hey, love the brotherhood
It's like, yes, we want you to honor all men
But don't forget to love the brotherhood
Who's the brotherhood?
Your fellow brothers in Christ
Your church family
Other people in other churches
The brotherhood
So we are commanded to love one another
And you're like, duh, we know that
Well, of course, this is one of the simplest things to obviously remember
Because we're supposed to do it every single time
We obviously are around the brotherhood
As much as we possibly can
You know, but if you have your Bibles
Go to Psalm 127, wait for me right there
Go to Psalms 127, verse 3
You know, so I want to talk about
The other word I want to define
And that's the word love
And when I looked up the word love
It has a few meanings
Here's one of them
You know, somebody once or recently just told me
I was soul winning
That when he first met his wife
Or when he first saw his wife
Not when they met
When they officially spoke to each other
But when he went to church
And the very first time he saw his wife
He says, I fell in love
That's what he says
It was love at first sight
He's like, brother
He's asking me about my relationship
He's like, when you saw your wife for the first time
Was it love?
You know, was it love at first sight?
I'm like, whoa, whoa, what?
He's like, that's what it was for me, man
You know, I'm glad I'm serving the Lord
You know, I went to church
And then that's where I saw my wife
For the very first time I saw her in the building
I saw her like, wow, that's a really pretty girl
You know, he's telling me the story
You know, and at that moment
Man, I had love for her
You know, I fell in love for her
And as we got to know each other
We were falling more in love
But what is this guy talking about?
Like, love, you know
Because this isn't the other love
That I want to refer to
But this is pretty much what he said
You know, in the Oxford American dictionary
Defines love as a deep romantic attachment to someone
A deep romantic attachment to someone
But that's not the only definition of love
For example, for God so loved the world
It's not teaching us that God had this deep romantic attachment to the world
Which is why he died, no
In fact, the other definition of love
You know, it's simply this
It means to have an intense deep affection
An intense deep affection
Has nothing to do with the physical or the romantic
But here's the thing
This is something that God wants us to have
This type of love
Where it's a deep intense affection
What do I mean by that?
Well, look at the word affection
You know, it has the first word, affect
Meaning that you should have an emotion that affects you deeply
But it shouldn't be a negative emotion like anger
You know, that's not having love, that's having hate
It should be a deep emotion
A deep intense emotion that's positive
Like joy
Like I would say besides joy
I guess another one could be maybe even excitement
You know, which is similar to joy
But I guess the main thing I'm trying to say is
Is that love is something that should affect you
Not just be something that you do
It should affect you intensely
It should be something from the heart
Something that's inside of you
You know, and of course when it comes to the other definition
You should have that as well
You know, for your spouse
You should have that type of love
You know, when Jacob loved Rachel
He obviously worked for her for seven years
And he said that the love that he had for her
Was so strong, so intense
That romantic emotion that he had towards Rachel
That it seemed but a few days
But that's a warning to the ladies
That's actually a verse that if I was a woman
I would take heed to
Because hey, if a guy's trying to rush you
And trying to rush a relationship, a physical relationship with you
And he can't even hold off for a sec
He can't even wait a year or so
Then something might be wrong with this individual
Because somebody who does love you will be willing to wait
And not try to rush it
And not try to get physical before you get married
But hey, Jacob was the kind of guy that said
Hey, I love Rachel to the point where I'll wait
Maybe forever, nah I'm just kidding
You know, but see the other love
Where it's an intense deep affection
You know, that's what we should have
You know, with our fellow brothers and sisters in Christ
You know, and we should have an emotion
Where when we have love towards someone
There should be happiness there
There should be excitement
You know, it should be positive
You know, so when we come to church and we see one another
You know, we should have some affection
We should have some kind of excitement
Some kind of joy when we get around each other
You know, Pastor Shelley called me when I was in Mexico
And he's like, yeah I need you to preach this Thursday
Can you do it?
I said yes without even thinking about it
Why? Because I love preaching here
I love coming here and preaching
Why? Is it because of the weather?
Is it because of the building?
Is it because of the chairs?
Is it because of the singing?
No, it's because I love you guys
You know, because to me
Faithfulness is a beautiful thing
Every time I come here
Seeing your faces
Seeing liberty
Even Mo
No, just kidding
He's sick, alright
Don't tell me otherwise
But seeing your faces every time I come
It brings me joy
You know, every single time I pray for you guys
Even though I sometimes can't remember names
And you just got to forgive me for that
I try to write them down
But then I lose them somewhere
But I try to pray for everyone
Including this church
You know, I pray for liberty
I pray for you
I pray for him
I pray for even the family that sits over here
You know, and I pray for even brother Samson
His wife
And it brings me, you know, positive emotions
When I think of you guys
When I'm like, Lord bless that church
Man, keep them faithful
They don't have a pastor and they're still coming
That's motivational right there
You know, that inspires me
You know, that makes me want to keep going down there
And seeing these people
And it just humbles me
To see their faithfulness
See how they just keep coming
Service after service
Even on a Thursday night
And they have no pastor
And they may even feel like a redheaded stepchild
But Lord, just keep them faithful
And keep them coming
And even though you may not think
You're doing much in life
Hey, by still coming
Me being here for almost two years
Showing up here and there
Seeing your faces
Believe me
That makes me want to keep going myself
And when I'm praying for you guys
It's not because I'm just bored
And have nothing better to do
And I just happen to have extra time
No, it's because I want to pray
Because I want to do something
That can help you guys
Whatever it may be
And I don't know your needs
But I know God does
And I just keep praying
God, whatever their needs are
Meet their needs
Keep them strong
Protect them from the devil and his minions
And just help them to continue to be faithful
And of course, why?
Because I love this brotherhood
In this part of the world
I love coming here to see you guys
So it's not like a big drag
Like, yeah, I have to get on a plane
Get up early and whatever
But you know what?
Those things are like
Dung at the end of the day
Once I come here
And I go home
And they're like, how'd it go?
You know what?
I just love seeing those people
Maybe it was a blessing to them
Maybe I wasn't
But it was a blessing to me
Just to see these faces
Just to see your kids
And it is what it is
I enjoy coming here
Because of the brotherhood
Not because of the building
All right?
But what else am I talking about?
Listen, it's about showing it
It's about showing it
Hey, showing it to your brothers and sisters Christ
And especially showing it to your family
Your personal family
Showing it to your kids
Because I love my kids
You know, I think my kids are the greatest kids in the world
You know what?
I wish I could spend more time with them
But the little things that I can do with them
I just want to do with them
Because what?
Because I love them
You know, they bring joy to me
Having intense deep emotional attachments to them
You know, so I want to spend as much time
As I can with them
But obviously I'm also commanded
You know, I'm commanded to go labor
Six days without labor, hey man
I got to go out there
And earn
But you know what?
It's not a dread
Because I'm earning it for them
Because I care about them
Because I love them
And I try to work as much as I possibly can
Even for my boss
Why?
Because of the money that he's paying me?
Absolutely 100% not
Because I want to get things done
Because I know it brings joy to my boss
And if you don't know who my boss is
It's Pastor Anderson
You know, so sometimes
Even if you were to say
Listen, the finances are a little low
You know what?
We're going to have to cut your pay
I will not stop working less
I might even work more
To earn the respect of God
So he can bless us with more finances
So we don't have to worry about the stinking finances
We don't like dealing with that
We like to worry about God's work
The soul winning
The marathons
The missions trips
Whatever it may be
You know, helping our church members
Just to be able to help them with a ride
Or whatever the case may be
Hey, those things bring me joy
Because what?
Because I love the brotherhood
I enjoy doing those things
Because I care about the brotherhood
I love the brotherhood
And the more you learn to love the brotherhood
Hey, the more you'll be a happy person
And that's what it's all about
Helping you guys to become
Better people
Happier people
Through God's word
By mentioning little things
That we kind of take for granted
Because you hear it all day long
Love one another
As Christ loved the church
But sometimes it just goes over our head
And we don't realize just how important it is
To love the brotherhood
You know, but
To me, having children
Brings me great joy
You know, why?
Because I have that intense
Deep emotional attachment to them
That's positive
That's joyful
And you know what?
It's biblical as well
I'll tell you to go to Psalms 127-3
It says this
Lo children are in the heritage of the Lord
And the fruit of the womb is his reward
As arrows are in the hand of a mighty man
So are children of the youth
Happy is the man that has this quiver full of them
They shall not be ashamed
But they shall speak with the enemies in the gate
Why is he happy?
Because he loves his children
That's why he's happy
Because he has that positive emotion
You know, that intense, you know, feelings towards their children
You know, that he can let a lot of things go
But overall, he enjoys his children
Because he has that love towards them
And he wants to see his children
He wants to come home to his children
He wants to spend time with his children
And he loves talking to his children
And he wants to do as many things as possible with his children
You know, I ended up finding out that one of my kids
You know, one of my kids told me
Hey dad, you know, such and such wants a six-pack abs
It's like he was what?
Six-pack abs!
He's like really?
He's like yeah
Because you know those kids
They're starting to get to that point
Where they are looking at themselves
And they're like
You know what?
It would be good to be strong
He wants muscles and whatever
I'm like six-pack abs?
I guess I can help you with that
So he met her to go
Alright, let's work on our six-pack abs
So since January, a month has passed, right?
And I started January 1st, 218 pounds
Guess what I am right now?
That's right
219 and a half pounds
I haven't lost a single ounce of fat off my body
But hey, we like to blame Corona, alright?
Corona got us sick in January
So we couldn't hit the gym
I was quarantined for three weeks
So we gave it to Corona
Corona won this victory, alright?
But now we're going into February
We'll see how things go
Give us six months
And we'll see where we're at
But I'm just like
Hey, sure, if that brings joy to you
Or you think that's going to make you happy, son
I want to make you happy
Because I love you
Because I love you, son
So let's go at it
Six-packs, eight-packs, whatever you want
Yeah, you know, the odds are against us
But let's do it
But either way
Three things I want to teach about
Loving the brotherhood
What does it really do?
Besides, you know, I guess
You know, when you look at it
Besides us keeping a commandment
Well, probably the first thing
If you really just stop and think about it
The first thing about being a person
That loves a brethren
Is keeping a commandment
That loves a brethren
Is that it's a joyful thing
To love your brothers and sisters in Christ
It's a very joyful thing
I didn't tell you to go there
But if you can
Go to 2 Corinthians chapter number 9
While you go there
I'm going to read from Psalms 133 one
It says this
Behold, how good and how pleasant
Pleasant
What is that word?
Pleasant
It's joyful
It says
How good and how pleasant is it
For brethren to dwell together in unity
Pleasant
Joyful
And who is it good and who is it pleasant to?
It's pleasant to God
It's joyful to God
It's a good thing to God
When he sees us
Like it says right there
Dwelling together in unity
And that can only happen
When we do actually have
Love for the brethren
If we don't have love for the brethren
And we do things just because we have to do them
You know, it's not going to last very long
You know, love is what's going to help you
Love is like a strength
It's going to help you
To continue and not quit
Same thing
Why don't I want to quit?
Why do I
Why do I want to spend hours just to finish a certain project?
Because I want to do it for my boss
I want my boss to be happy
I want to come to my boss and say
Hey, that project that you gave me
It was difficult
You know, it was a pain
But you know what
It's done
And it's like wow
You know
You finished it
And I'm like done
Here's an example
We're giving away posters right now
And everybody wants one
Everybody
And guess what
We didn't have extras
We ordered them
The day that Pastor Anderson made an announcement
Saying hey
We got this prophecy poster
We've had it for about seven years
And we just want to give it to anybody at church
They're in the back
Grab some
And we're also going to open it up to those watching at home
If you want one, email the church
And we'll send you one
And we're also going to open it to Canada
You know, if you're from Canada
Hey, if you want this poster
We just want it to be a blessing to you
We're going to get this information in people's hands
Just email the church
All of a sudden
You know
These emails start popping
We didn't even have
An opportunity to even like
Grab the posters
We just threw them in the church
And next thing you know
We got like 300 requests
Then 350 requests
Then we're at 400 requests
Then we're at 450
So we got cracking
For hours upon hours upon hours
You know how long it takes just to do one poster
If you're fast
A minute
Multiply that times 450
And you'll figure out how long it took
To get these things out of there
But we did it
It was hard
It was hours upon hours
We didn't want to quit
We're like hey
If the boss says we'll send you one
Let's make the boss look good
And we sent him out
We sent 350 out
Probably in the next couple of days
That's not easy
We sent 350
We ordered 500
Gave the church about 50
Sure enough
We had only 350 boxes
We were naive
We didn't count the cost
Of putting this message out
We felt like maybe 2-300 people
Are going to request one
No
We ran through all 500
And we just got another 500 today
So if anybody's watching
That just happens to be watching
Haven't got your poster yet
Don't worry
We just got them today
At 10 a.m.
And we got all these tubes
Ready to go
And we're going to just be putting posters
In every single one of these tubes
And ship them out
And Pastor Anderson would have been like
You didn't have to do that
He said you could have just done
Maybe 10 a day
20 a day
30 a day
Not 150 a day
But why did I do it?
Because of the love
For the brotherhood
You know
He's included as well
I said you know what
I want to do it
Not because you're paying me
You know
I want to do it
Not because it's going to be great information
That can actually save people's
I guess you could say physical lives
During the tribulation
And help them to figure out
How this thing's going to go
So they can kind of figure out
How much food to buy
Instead of having to have years of food
You only need 75 days homie
That's all you need
You know
And sell the rest of the food
In fact
I don't know if it's God
That's behind this
But I saw an infomercial
Of some guy that literally
Literally has
Like a survival pack
He has like a 70 something day survival pack
And I don't know if this guy's a prophecy expert
Or something
But he has like bins
He has like bins this high
And he claims
In 75 days worth of food
It's all nice
And just like
Like
I don't know what you call it
When you take the air out of packages
And it makes them smaller
I don't know what that's called
You know
Whatever it is
But he's showing it off
And then he's eating it
Mmm so delicious
Chicken and rice
Mmm mmm mmm
You just never know
When society's going to go downhill
Mmm this is delicious
Get them now with some pie slides
You better hurry
And I'm thinking
That's what I need to buy
For real
But some people don't know
That that pastor's going to help
The poster's going to help them
You know
Just how many days
Before the
Before the Lord returned
You know
75 days after this
But here's the thing though
Yeah we didn't have to do that
But we wanted to do it
Because of love
It wasn't going to put more money in my pocket
It was just like no
I want these things out
I want them in people's hands
Yes
But I want the boss to be happy
And I know the boss wants them out
Let's get them out
Let's send them out
Let's work all night
Let's get it done
Hey it was hours upon hours
It was probably a 20 hour plus project
To just get these things out
We got them out
You know
In two days
350 of them
We got them out
People started saying
Hey thank you so much
But how did that happen
Hey
Because of love
You know
Because I care about Pastor Anderson
I believe
He didn't get me saved
But you know what
He saved my physical life
Because he wasn't afraid
To preach the truth
And I needed to hear certain truths
Because I was in certain sins
And I had no clue
I was good in my own sight
But I wasn't good in God's sight
Had I not come across these truths
I wouldn't have been blessed by God
That's what the Bible says
When a man is good in his sight
That's when he'll bless you
Not when you're good in your own sight
And I literally have people tell me
I don't know why I'm going through so much
I feel like I'm just the worst person in the world
I just don't know
Like God's punished me left and right
And we're all like
We can tell you why
If you really want to know
It's like you're not going to church
You're not reading
You're not going soloing anymore
You know
It's like you're addicted to cigarettes
And you're not even thinking
That you need to give them up
It's like dude
You know
You smoke weed here and there
They're like
I can tell you why
But they literally don't know why
Because they're good in their own sight
And that can happen to anyone
And guess what
This person doesn't read their Bible like they should
Guess what
This person doesn't come to church
They hear God's word
You know
They probably think it's for those that are really hardcore
Really serious about serving the Lord
No
It's for everyone
It's the back
The backslider
You name it
It's for everyone
It's not just for certain individuals
You know
But obviously
That loving the brotherhood is a joyful thing to God
And it will be to us as well
Look at 2 Corinthians chapter number 9
It says this
Therefore I thought it necessary to exhort the brethren
So this is just about the brothers
The brethren
That they will go before unto you
And make up beforehand your bounty
Whereof ye had noticed before
That the same might be ready
As a matter of bounty
And as of covetousness
But this I say
He wish so esperantly
Shall reap also sparingly
And he wish so es bountifully
Shall reap also bountifully
Every man according as he has purpose in his heart
So let him give
Not grudgingly
Or of necessity
For God loveth a cheerful giver
A lot of times we just use that to just tell people
Listen you should give
Give with the right heart
But don't forget
When you give and you give with the right heart
Hey it brings joy to the Lord
It makes them happy
But how can somebody give
And give joyfully
When they have the right love
When they love the brotherhood
When they realize this money is going to pay for my pastor
So that he can keep doing what he's doing
But this money is going to go to the church
So they can use it as they see fit
For so many permissions transfer
Whatever the case may be
Even helping other people if we need to
Cause we have people that say
Hey I can't pay my rent
And it's like listen
We can probably get away with it now because of corona
So we're gonna help you out
But listen
We're basically doing the best we can
You know with what we have
You know so here's the deal
We're gonna help you out
But you gotta understand
That this isn't how it's supposed to go
But obviously we try to use our finances
For what?
You know for the Lord's work
And the Lord's work
Guess what?
It's a lot
It's a lot the Lord has to do
You know so anybody that gives
And they have the right attitude
They have the loving spirit that they should have
They're a cheerful giver
Hey bottom line
They're not gonna ever be
Like it says right there
You're not gonna grudgingly give
And when you learn to love the brethren
When you give
It's gonna be all just joyful
Like here take it
I don't care
And that's how I was
Cause when I realized
Hey the tithes
It's the Lord's
It's not even mine
It's up to the pastor
What to do with it
Every time I gave
I didn't really care
When people would hit me up
Like hey did you see such and such
Did you see whatever
You know look where he's spending his money
I'm like I don't care
What he spends his money
He could literally take the money
And buy magic beans
I don't care
It really does not bother me
Because it's not my money
You know and I gave it to him
Because he's gonna use it
For the Lord's work
And the Lord's work
Includes helping the brethren
Not just unsafe people
So whatever he sees spent
Hey our money goes to him
He does whatever God wants him
To do with it
And I'm not worried about it
Because I care about the brethren
I know the money's gonna go
To help the brothers
In the church
Or whatever the case may be
You know
But not just that
You know
It's a joyful thing
For even the world
If you can
Your 2nd Corinthians
I'll give you a few minutes
But you know
It's a joyful thing
For even the world
If you can
Your 2nd Corinthians
I'll give you a few minutes
To go to John 13
Go to John 13 if you can
John 13
You know
So loving the brotherhood
Is obviously something
That's not hard to figure out
As far as what God wants us to do
Knowing how to do it
We'll talk about that at the end
And we'll finish with that
You know
But in John 13 34
If you can get there
Great
If not
Just meet me in Matthew 18
But John 13 34
It says
The new commandment
I give unto you
That ye love one another
As I love you
That ye also love one another
By this shall all men know
That ye are my disciples
Saying look
It's a joyful thing
It's a good thing
When you love one another
Because everyone's going to see it
And it's going to be wonderful
When people are getting together
And they're all together
In one accord
And I hate when people fight
I hate when my children fight
I absolutely hate it
Kids listen up
Please try as best you can
Not to fight with one another
Don't pick on each other
Don't call each other names
Don't punch
Don't kick
Because it does hurt your parents
We absolutely hate it
We don't like it one bit
It kills us when you guys fight
And it kills us when you guys call each other names
It hurts us whether you know it or not
But it also upsets God
That's why God doesn't want us as brothers to fight
That's why he says it's a pleasant thing
When brethren dwell together in unity
It makes God happy
And every parent will tell you
We're really happy when you guys are getting along
But when you guys start yelling at each other
And then you punch
And you stick
And you bite
I hope nobody's biting
But when you start going at one another kids
Let me put it this way
It hurts us as parents to see that
It even causes us sometimes to be nervous and afraid
Like my goodness
I hope you guys snap out of this at some point
Because if you grow up to be this individual
That just easily fights everyone
You're not going to have a very nice life
You're just not
But besides it being a joyful thing
If you can go to Matthew 18
You know
Loving the brotherhood
Is the right thing to do
Or it's just
It's just
It's the right thing to do
To love the brotherhood
Go to Matthew 18 if you can
And we'll talk about the parable
Of the individual that didn't have brotherly love
Or didn't love
You know those around him
But he wanted love
And I'll quickly go over it
In Matthew 18 it says
Then came Peter to him and said
Lo how off shall my brother sin against me
And I forgive him
Till seven times Jesus said unto him
I say not unto thee
You know until seven times
You know but until seventy times seven
Therefore is the kingdom of heaven
Like unto a certain king
Which will take account of his servants
And when he had begun to reckon
One was brought unto him
Which owed him ten thousand talents
But as for much as he had not to pay
His Lord commanded to be sowed
And his wife and children and all that he had
And payment to be made
The servant therefore fell down
And worshiped him saying
Lord have patience with me
And I will pay thee all
Then the Lord of that servant
Was moved with compassion
Moved with compassion
What is compassion?
Compassion is love
So here's a great king
What causes him to do this
Is he had compassion
He had love
And this is why it's important for you to have love
Because you will be able to forgive
And not hold grudges
It'll help you to be a great Christian
And succeed in a Christian life
When you can learn to have compassion
But if you don't
We'll see what happens
When you don't have compassion
Let's keep reading
Since he had compassion
He loosed him and forgave him to death
But the same servant
Who of course does not have compassion
He doesn't have love
He could care less about anybody but himself
And he would not have brotherly love
He would definitely not love the brotherhood
Or be considered someone
That loves the brotherhood
Since the same servant went out
And found one of his fellow servants
Which owed him a hundred pence
And he laid hands on him
Man it has to take a lot
For you to get your hands on somebody
Grab them physically
I mean a lot of people
Have said a lot of dumb things to me
And have angered me
But I've never grabbed them by the neck
So you must be a really angry, wicked person
To be able to do such a thing
And this guy's not even calling them names
He just says I don't have the money to pay you
What?
Come here to pay me
That's gotta be really wicked
I mean think about that
You're physically harming someone
You're not just grabbing him by the shoulder
Like listen you promised to pay me
You need to pay me
He didn't do that
He's like grabbing him by the neck
That's trying to like really hurt the guy
Without getting in trouble
Like trying to cause the guy some pain
Man I hope no one here ever gets to that level
But why?
Why is this guy at that level?
Because he doesn't have love
He doesn't have love for the brotherhood
It takes heed unless you be this person
That yeah your God died for your sins
And for giving you
And giving you eternal life
But you can't turn around
And do the same for someone
Who might might have accidentally crossed you
Because let's face it
If you don't offend someone
Then you're a perfect person
According to James
So guess what?
I'm not perfect
So I'm sure I'm gonna say, do
Or maybe even think something
That will offend God
Or say something
That would offend you guys
Or do something
That would offend you guys
And listen just give me the benefit of the doubt
I'm not perfect when I speak
Amen
I may say or do something
But listen
The bottom line is
That if you forgive others
God will forgive you
And if you can't let go of things
You're gonna become a very wicked person
To the point where you're physically trying to hurt people
Who aren't really doing much to you
Yeah this guy should have paid him
Should have paid him but he owed him
But come on
It's like you just got forgiven
For thousands and thousands of dollars
Your wife almost got sold
Your kids almost got taken away from you
And you can't let this go?
That's why of course this story is in there
So let's keep reading
Since then his fellow servant fell down on his feet
And beside him saying have patience with me
And I will pay the all
But he will not
But when they cast him into prison
Now look at that
Locking people up like an animal
Man I don't know but
Sometimes I watch these prison videos
And I feel bad for this criminal
Literally
In those tiny little rooms
Having to deal with a bunch of crazy
Some of them are surrounded by sodomites
Literally
They're like oh man
There's like this dude in here
Who he's like whatever
You know they have to deal with that guy
They have to deal with guys constantly
You know at each other
They have to deal with drugs
A lot of drugs in prison
You know people think
Oh if they're in prison
They can stop committing crimes
No
They're committing crimes in prison
I don't know how
But there's a lot of ways
I guess you can smuggle that stuff in
I don't even want to talk about them
But you know what I'm talking about
But here's the deal
Let's just make sure
That we don't get to the point
Where you're glad somebody's in prison
You know
Yes you know what
It is what it is
We should have it
We should have
We should have law
You know
We believe in the death penalty
If you don't believe in the death penalty
To reach your Bible
Because God is for the death penalty
To keep crime under control
You know
When we don't execute the death penalty
Fast
Guess what
It sends a message
That we really don't care about
You know justice
So go ahead and gamble
And try to rob that bank
And make a million dollar hit
Or whatever the case may be
Because guess what
If they catch you
Nothing's really going to happen to you
Look at this guy
He murdered this people
He's still in prison alive
And well
Look at this person
Then people started justifying their brains
Like you know what
If this score goes well
You know
Hey I can be
I can be sad
You know
But if it doesn't go well
Oh well
You know
It's not like they're going to put me to death
Or anything
I'll just do whatever
And you know
Get out
Twenty years later
And they can justify it in a million way
But when they see people getting executed
Left and right
They'll be less likely to rob that bank
Less likely to commit that fraud
They'll be less likely to do something
You know
That's going to get them locked up
For a long time
Because when they see people getting executed
They're like
Whoa
Let me think twice about this
But when they see people in jail
For fifty, sixty, seventy years
You know
That doesn't discourage them
Period
Especially if they're reprobated
It's not going to discourage them at all
They probably want to be in prison
Let me be out here and ruin people's lives
And molest as many kids as possible
Because what's going to happen
When they catch me
Nothing
By the time they catch me
I'm going to molest two hundred of them
By the time they catch me
Guess what
I already did so much of it
I'm probably tired of it
And I don't mind being in jail
With a bunch of other idiots
That are probably reprobating themselves
And they have all the food they want
They got all the free time they want
They have all the books to read time
Or whatever
And they don't care about getting out
Because they're reprobated
You know
They don't have the need of the woman anymore
You know
Now they can just meet in prison
And commit all kinds of filth
You know
Hopefully they just all get AIDS in prison
And die
You know
But for the rest of the people
That are locked up
For non-violent crimes
If you think it's good for them to be there
And you have no compassion
When I watch these videos
I'm just like
My goodness
You know
They're just there every day
Just staring at a TV screen
Not even books to read
They're just literally there
Just sitting around like
Like animals in the zoo
I feel bad for those people
I don't care if they did go to jail
For selling weed or whatever
I'm like
Man
Let those people
Our system is so messed up
It's so messed up
And I have compassion for those people
When I see them being interviewed in jail
Especially when they're in juvenile hall
And they're gonna spend about 20 years in prison
I'm like
Man
You're 18
You're 16
I feel bad
How much more should I have compassion
For my brother
For the brotherhood
You know
Yes
You know
I feel bad for these people
I should feel more compassion
For my brothers in Christ
You know
But we see in this story
That this guy
That he already got forgiven
For the money that he owed
Hey
He doesn't forgive
For money that other people owe him
And verse 32 says this
Then his lord
After he had called them
And said unto him
O thou wicked servant
I forgave thee all that debt
Because thou desirest me
Shouldest not thou also have a compassion
On thy fellow servant
As I have pity on thee
And his lord was wrought
Obviously the
The lord
You know
It's a representation of the lord Jesus Christ
And people say
Oh Jesus
Jesus taught smoking hippie
You know
He was just going around
Just hanging out
With the worst of the worst
And teaching them the love of God
Et cetera, et cetera
No
Jesus Christ is a wrathful God
Jesus Christ has wrath
I mean
He's gonna be the one
That basically sends people into hell
Cast them into hell
And they'll be burning forever
In the presence of the lamb
Who is the lamb that's Christ
So he does have wrath
And he even said
Fear me
When people are like
Hey you know
We're afraid to serve you
Hey don't fear them
I'm not able to kill the body
But I'm not able to kill the soul
But fear him
Basically saying
Hey fear me
Oh no
But Jesus
Jesus taught smoking hippie
With long hair
Ain't happening
That so likewise
Shall my heavenly father
And it's not just Jesus
Actually saying
Hey it's the father
He's gonna do unto you
If you from your hearts
Forgive not
Everyone is brother
To their trespasses
Why?
Why should I just forgive?
Why?
Because it's the just thing to do
Number one
We already know
That it brings joy
You know
Loving the brother
Brings joy
To the Lord
It's a joyful thing
To the Lord
And number two
It's a just thing to do
It's the just thing to do
And number three
And I wrap it up with this one
It justifies you
Being someone that can love the brotherhood
Justifies you
Let's take a look really quick
If you can go to Luke 18
Go to Luke 18
I'm 32 minutes into the sermon
Go to Luke 18
We're gonna go over a few verses
And then we're gonna end
We're gonna go right back to 1 Peter
Where we all started
So the first thing is
Loving the brotherhood is a joyful thing
It's a pleasant thing to God
Loving the brotherhood
What do I mean?
I mean that you have this intense feeling
Just like you love your kids
It should be the same for your church members
Just like you wanna go home
And be around your kids
And you wanna do things for your kids
It should be the same for people in your church
Meaning that you shouldn't come to church
And be like
Man this church would be such an awesome church
If it weren't for him
I hope he just gets out of here someday
You know it's like
Man I love everyone
But I can't stand her
You know what I'm saying?
It's like
Just keep me away from this woman
Please
Don't pair me up with her
I don't wanna see her
I just decided already in my heart
That you know what
We're just gonna agree to disagree
And the best thing I can do at this moment
Is just to stay away far away
You know just like the Bible says
Stay far away from the adulterous woman's house
I'm gonna stay away from this adulterous woman
Even though she's not an adulterous woman
It's I think twice before you go that route
Why?
Because look what's gonna happen to you
Luke 18
And it says
And that's what I've noticed
A lot of people that say
Well you know I can't hang out with these people
They literally think
That they're righteous
They're blind
Because that's not the right attitude
Now listen
For the sake of peace
If you got beef with someone
Chill the heck out
It's better to just break up
Chill out
But when it's one
Two
Three
Four
Five
Six years later
And the soul winner's like
Hey can I pair you
Oh nope
Nope
Don't pair me up with this person
Nope
It's like do you know that you're righteous in your own eyes
Everyone can see it
It's like that's pretty messed up
How long has it been?
It's like seriously?
Years
Not even months
Years
And you still have issues with this person
It's because you're righteous in your own eyes
And see if you don't become a person who knows how to love the brotherhood
Guess what?
In God's eyes
He's saying you ain't justified
You know
You're instead
You're not justified in my eyes
Let's take a look
And he spake this parabon to Jordan
Which trusted in himself that they were righteous
And despised others
Two men went up into the temple to pray
The one a Pharisee
And the other a publican
The Pharisee stood and prayed thus within himself
God I thank you that I am not as other men
Extortion is unjust
Adulters
Or even as this publican
I fast twice in a week
I give tithes of all that I possess
And the publican standing afar off
Would not lift up so much as his eyes unto heaven
But smote his breast
Saying God be merciful to me a sinner
But this guy is clearly
Like feeling bad for what he's doing
And he's there just smoting his breast
Meaning that he's probably in tears
He's there, he's suffering
He's just trying to get right with the Lord
If I would have saw that
I would have been like man I feel bad for this guy
Like what is he going through
But nope
The Pharisee is like
I'm not like this guy
This guy is on his knees
He's literally like
God I'm sorry
Please I'm sorry
And this guy is like
Look at this guy
He's like I'm not like this guy
No compassion
No love
I'm telling you sometimes
I see people in church
And I can see
I don't even need to like ask
I can see them talking to someone else
And they start tearing up
I immediately start feeling bad
I feel bad
I'm like oh man what's going on
What's the issue with that
It's like Lord I don't know what's going on
You know but I clearly see
I saw Pastor Anderson's daughter one time crying
And I didn't even know what it was about
I started crying
I almost wanted to cry myself
And I don't even know what the issue is
I was just like what's going on with such and such
I'm like oh my goodness
Lord what's going on with
I just don't like to see these kids or anyone
You know
Going through some kind of emotional pain
And so I just immediately when I see that
And it will happen
You'll probably notice it here
Somebody's struggling
All of a sudden
You're talking to them
And they start tearing up
Or you see them talking to somebody else
And look serious
And if you know they're tearing up
They're wiping their hands
You know
Like I just can't help but feel bad
And I just do my best to start praying
When Pastor was going through a real serious battle
He did his best
He preached after the service
And I've never seen this ever
I don't even know if I should be saying this but
I've never seen this before
Where he felt like quitting
Like he literally said
I am about to quit
And then sure enough
Somebody walks up to him
And says please don't quit
He said you have no idea
Just how bad I was
Before I came across your preaching
He's like please don't quit for us
And Pastor broke into tears
He breaks into tears
To the point where he has to wipe them
You know how sometimes you get teary-dyed
But you don't need to wipe them
He was so teary-dyed
He had to wipe them
And he wiped them off his face
And as soon as I saw that
I started crying
I couldn't help it
Why?
Because I had compassion
Why?
Because I love for the brotherhood
And if it would have been somebody else
It would have been the exact same way
But how are you when you see people suffer?
Are you like this Pharisee?
They're like good they deserve it
For being such a bad soul winner
Good they deserve it
You know
For being so goofy I don't know
Or do we feel bad
When somebody tears up and cries
And breaks down
And you realize
What is going on in this person's heart
Lord what's going on
Do you feel bad when they feel bad
Do you rejoice when people rejoice
And do you also sorrow when people are sorrowed
If you do
Then you know what
You can be somebody
And knows
Knows how to show love
Even though you may not even talk to the individual
You can just show love by saying
God you know what
Help this person out
Because I used to go to an addictions program
It was a faith-based addiction program
It was decent
And one of the first things I wanted to cover was love
And this is the definition of the game
This is the definition that it gave us
It says
The willing Dr. Fischl
Given of oneself
For the benefit of others
Without thought or return
And I don't know if it's the best definition
You know
I don't know
I know it's a good one
Because you can see that in John 3 16
The willing Dr. Fischl
Given of oneself
For the benefit of others
What did Christ gain
By going on the cross
Did he gain anything
No
But did we gain something
Absolutely
Did he willingly do it
Or was it grudgingly
He willingly did it
So willingly sacrificial
Can anybody deny that he sacrificed himself
Nobody can
If you do you're a fool
You need to read the scriptures again
So he willingly sacrificed himself
For the benefit of others
And maybe he had thought of return
Like I get to spend the rest of my life
My eternal life with you guys
Maybe that was the thought of return
But obviously when
When we talk about thought of return
Meaning that you're only doing something
Because you want something from this person
That's not love
You know that's not love at all
You know if you do things for people
For their benefit
And you don't expect anything in return
Now you're in the realm of love
Of love in the brotherhood
So the other point I want to make
Is that it's not hard to figure out
How to love the brotherhood
How do you know
Well I don't even know where I got this Bible
Oh you know what I ordered on Amazon
But it's funny because I'm reading right here
Our verse
You know
Verse number 17
Love the brotherhood
And somebody may say
How can I start
Well look at this
Show brotherly love
So let's go there
First Peter chapter number two
If you can quickly get there
If not
Don't worry
No biggie
I got
20 minutes
No I'm just kidding
It's 39 minutes
I'm about to finish in five
But let's just kind of see
What this chapter's about
I mean if you want to know
How to love the brotherhood
And there's a section in the Bible
That's titled
Show brotherly love
I don't think God's going to make it hard
For you to realize
How to become someone
That loves the brotherhood
Because this is a commandment
Love the brotherhood
That's not a suggestion
But I'm glad God doesn't just tell you
To do something
And doesn't give you an idea on how to do it
But I'm sure this isn't everything
You know
That you have to learn about
Loving your brothers
Or loving the brotherhood
But let's just quickly see what it says
It says this
Finally
Be ye all of one mind
Having compassion
Is that a shocker?
Having love
Having compassion
So what is love?
Hey it says right there
Show brotherly love
Having compassion
Compassion
What is compassion?
It's that deep intense feel
That you have in you
For other people
Not hatred
But to want to see them succeed
To want them to be happy
That's really what you're basically saying
When you say hey
You know I love my kids
What are you saying?
Hey these kids bring me joy
You know I enjoy my kids
I enjoy my kids
I love my wife
What am I saying?
I enjoy my wife
Not just that I have compassion
I enjoy my wife
You know I love my wife
I love Pastor Anderson
What am I saying?
I'm not saying that I have a romantic affection towards him
Like the first definition
I'm not saying that
And I've even seen Pastor Anderson tell people
Hey I love you
And they're not female
You know we had a guy who he kicked out
For ending up being a oneness heretic
And I was there when he fired him
And I was there when he kicked him out
At the time he didn't realize how bad he was
But he told me you know what
Hey I don't hate you
I love your brother such and such
I absolutely do
But here's the thing
You're screwed up
You're in to damnable heresy
And I don't know why
But I love you
And listen I don't want anything bad to happen to you
I love your brother such and such
I wish you well
You want to keep coming to faithful word
You keep coming to faithful word
You know but you need to figure out this doctrine
And obviously it turned out just to be a false prophet
But he said that to him
I love you
And I believe he meant it
Because he didn't know I was recording him
I filmed the whole thing
We released it later on YouTube
Because this guy was talking so much trash
That he forgot
You know just how the story really went
He was exaggerating the truth
Making himself look like a tough guy
Trying to make Pastor Anderson look like a sissy or whatever
And I basically uploaded that video
And the truth came out that he was a sissy
That's just the fact
It was all over your face
You cried like a little girl
You know
And Pastor didn't know I was filming him
He didn't say hey record this I'm about to fire him
He didn't say that
I just felt like you know what this is such a big deal
I might as well film it
Forget it we don't need it we don't need it
But it might help us out down the road
Because who knows what this guy is going to say
It's going to be Pastor Anderson's word versus his word
And let's just have something on file
And I don't know how that camera just magically aimed it right at his face
And it was perfectly like
I had it like this
And it was like somehow it magically just did it by itself
Like stared up in his face
I didn't even want time to like aim it at him
I'm just like this under my armpit
And I'm thinking I wonder if I'm even recording him
I don't care I just want the audio
But it was BAM right in his face
Because I knew what was happening
But if you're wondering where can I begin
Am I really showing do I really have brotherly love
Do I really love the brethren
We'll just read this
I mean it's a small section it's not that long
I'll quickly read it
Having compassion one of another
Love as brethren
That's the brotherhood
Love as brethren be pitiful
Now was that Pharisee pitiful
When the guy's on the ground
Like literally crying
Begging God to be merciful
That Pharisee was like
I don't know what's going on with this dude but good
You know think Republican
Taking all my money
Republicans are a tax collector
But this guy's tithing twice a week
He has money you know
And the public is taking some of that money
I'm sure the love of money which is the root of all evil
Is causing this Pharisee to be like
Yeah I'm not like this Republican who takes my money
And gives it a Caesar
That's probably what's happening
He's despising this guy for taking money
That this guy thinks he earned
When God gives us the strength to make money
He puts one up and he breaks one down
But people don't see it this way
They're like no I'm rich because of my own whatever
But hey the scripture said that God is the reason why you have what you have
Don't forget that Mr. Pharisee
But once again what's it say
Be pitiful be courteous
Now rendering evil for evil
Or railing for railing
What does that even mean railing for railing
Sometimes people come to us
And they're saying hey I just want to let you know
You know this guy is doing X, Y, and Z
Really you got evidence?
No but I'm pretty sure
It's like do you realize what you're accusing him of
You're doing it right now yourself
You're saying this person is going around talking bad about you
And you have no evidence for it
Again you're basically saying that he's talking bad about you
And you have no evidence for it
You know what that's called it's called railing
So that's what it says
Railing for railing
You're claiming this guy is railing on you
And you're railing on him right now
Because you're saying he's doing X, Y, and Z
And you have no evidence for it
And it's even coming out of your mouth
That's railing for railing
And it's crazy because sometimes when people get paranoid
And they accuse people of certain things
They're actually doing it themselves
And they don't see it
It's mind blowing
Like everybody can see it
It's like this dude's done whatever
And he's claiming such and such as the whatever
But that's how blind you know sin can cause us to be
But contraries wise blessings
I mean is there anybody in the church that you cannot bless
You might want to get that right
Knowing that you are there aren't too cold
That you shouldn't inherit a blessing
For he that will love life and seek good days
Let him refrain his tongue for evil
But be careful with what you say about people
Be careful what you say about the brotherhood as well
And his lips that they speak no God
Let him eschew evil and do good
Let him seek peace and then sue it
And sometimes you may think
But yeah but this church member you don't understand
This guy just has issues with me
I'm pretty sure he's turning people against me
I'm pretty sure he's the root of all my problems
Oh yeah?
Well let's just say that's true
What does the Bible say?
The eyes of the Lord are over the righteous
And his ears are open unto their prayers
But his face
The face of the Lord is against them
They are due evil
So hey stop talking like an unbeliever
And start talking like a believer
So if he is going around causing people to hate you
And despise you
And he's talking bad about your name
Don't worry about it
Because the Bible says that God is against that person
Is against that person
So sleep at night
That if you're so right
You're gonna be okay
Don't freak out
Just say calm down
Read this scripture again
God's eyes are everywhere
Beholding the evil and the good
So if this guy is going around
And you have no evidence
God does know
God does know if it's true
But it says this
And he
And who is he that will harm you
I love that part
It's kind of like yo man chill
Who is he that will harm you
If he be followers of that
Which is good
So worry about the other stuff
Not to do the other stuff
Don't worry about what other people are up to
Worry about what you're doing
Don't be the one that's causing railing for railing
Don't be the one that's speaking out
Don't be the one that doesn't issue evil
Don't be the one that doesn't seek peace in the suet
Don't be that individual
Worry about those things
Because those things are gonna make you somebody
Who will eventually be a loving person
And you'll love the brotherhood with no problem
And if somebody is out to get you in church
They have some grudge against you
And they're turning everyone against you
Or whatever the case may be
Hey who can harm you
If you're a follower of that which is good
Everything's gonna be okay
Don't worry about it
So if you wanna know
How can I be somebody that can love the brotherhood
Well here's a chapter
Second Peter
Chapter number two
Oh I'm sorry chapter number three verse eight
Simply put
Hey show brotherly love
Here's how you can be somebody that loves the brotherhood
Let's pray
Dear God we thank you so much
For all that you've done
Thank you for these people Lord
Thank you for these faithful people
And every time I come there Lord
It just humbles me just to see them
Why?
Because Lord hey
They don't have a pastor this full time
That kind of person
That can cause anybody to just quit
And come back later
But they decided not to
They're gonna serve you
And they're gonna serve you well
And so Lord I just ask you
They came here while it's cold
It's miserable
It's rainy
But Father they showed up tonight
Hey this is what it is dear Lord
That's faithfulness
Bless their faithfulness
And we ask you to do this
In the name of your son
Jesus Christ
Amen
