-
0:00 - 0:03Welcome to lesson number
9 on the pioneer school -
0:03 - 0:06today we are going to
talk about repentance -
0:05 - 0:08and I am going to
provoke you and help to -
0:08 - 0:11take your glasses off
when it comes to this -
0:11 - 0:14because I want to ask
you a question we as -
0:14 - 0:18Christians should we
look at ourselves as -
0:18 - 0:22sinners saved by grace or saints?
And this -
0:22 - 0:26is really important and
the way we look at -
0:26 - 0:30ourselves often hasn’t
anything to do with -
0:30 - 0:32the bible but has to do
with the glasses and -
0:32 - 0:35our background and today
I’m going to help you -
0:35 - 0:37to take the glasses off
help you to understand -
0:37 - 0:41that Jesus did not
come to save us in our -
0:41 - 0:45sins but he came to
save us from our sins -
0:45 - 0:49and I believe this teaching
is really important -
0:49 - 0:51in going to help you to
come into the freedom -
0:51 - 0:55we have in Christ so we
can live the life we -
0:55 - 0:58read in the book of
Acts so God bless you. -
1:42 - 1:44Welcome to this teaching
this is teaching -
1:44 - 1:47number 9 out of the 20
lessons on the pioneer -
1:47 - 1:49school and again I love
what God is doing, -
1:49 - 1:53God is doing God is doing
amazing things and -
1:53 - 1:56the last two times I
spoke about what you -
1:56 - 1:59need to do to get saved I
spoke about repentance -
1:59 - 2:01baptism in water and
the Holy Spirit and I -
2:01 - 2:05got a lot of response out
of it there an older -
2:05 - 2:08lady who wrote to me
from our city who is -
2:08 - 2:11at the bible school
I’ve not seen her yet -
2:11 - 2:14but she wrote to me
that her whole life she -
2:14 - 2:18had thought this she was
saved by her baptism -
2:18 - 2:21as an infant but after
she had seen this video -
2:21 - 2:25she want to get baptised
so after this teaching -
2:25 - 2:28I’m going to her to
baptise her so a lot -
2:28 - 2:32of things is happening
during these lessons -
2:32 - 2:35and I love it, I love
what God is doing and -
2:35 - 2:38today is going to be
really interesting and I -
2:38 - 2:42am going to help you
also today to get the -
2:42 - 2:45glasses get off you
the religious glasses -
2:45 - 2:48and what I am going to
talk about today is -
2:47 - 2:51repentance and I am going
to a little different -
2:51 - 2:55way than you normally
hear when we talk about -
2:55 - 2:58repentance and also what
you see in this bible -
2:58 - 3:01school I only try to
get the glasses off so -
3:02 - 3:05you can by your own
with the Holy Spirit -
3:05 - 3:08study the word of God
and experience how the -
3:08 - 3:10word is setting you
free so I’m not going -
3:10 - 3:13to give you the answer
in everything ‘I’m -
3:12 - 3:16just going to give you
the big picture to -
3:16 - 3:19help you to understand
the different -
3:20 - 3:22things in the word of God.
And -
3:22 - 3:24today I’m going to
provoke you a lot -
3:23 - 3:27I am going to say
something where you are -
3:27 - 3:30going to say ‘wow what is this?
But remember -
3:30 - 3:32what do we build on? Do we
-
3:32 - 3:34build on our traditions
-
3:34 - 3:37or on the word of God
but before I am going -
3:38 - 3:41to take this teaching
today and continue with -
3:41 - 3:43some of the things we
talked about last time -
3:44 - 3:47I’m going to share some
testimonies l love -
3:47 - 3:50sharing testimonies of
what God is doing and -
3:50 - 3:53if you remember last
time I spoke about how -
3:53 - 3:57we share the gospel
and I was sitting here -
3:58 - 4:01with this table and I was
showing how to share -
4:01 - 4:05the gospel and it’s
like God wants people -
4:05 - 4:08all over the world to
repent he has commanded -
4:09 - 4:12people to repent our
job as disciples is to -
4:12 - 4:16show them what it is
all about to give them -
4:16 - 4:19the clear gospel so they
know what they need -
4:19 - 4:23to do because as I show
you last time if they -
4:23 - 4:26do what they are supposed
to do God is going -
4:27 - 4:30to move next time if
they repent he is going -
4:30 - 4:33to give them a new heart
if they get baptised -
4:33 - 4:35in water he is going
to set them free from -
4:35 - 4:37their sins when we lay
our hands on people -
4:37 - 4:40and obey the word of
God they are going to -
4:40 - 4:42receive the Holy Spirit
and I show you last -
4:43 - 4:46time how I did it and
I want to say this is -
4:46 - 4:50like everything else
it must not end just -
4:51 - 4:54with theology if you
get theology out of my -
4:54 - 4:58teaching you have failed
and I have failed -
4:59 - 5:03in teaching you because
we need more than -
5:03 - 5:06theology we need to get
it into practice and -
5:06 - 5:10for me when I started
this with sharing the -
5:10 - 5:13gospel and the way I
do it in the beginning -
5:15 - 5:17it was new for me also
everything I’m teaching -
5:17 - 5:19is new for me because I
have to take my glasses -
5:20 - 5:23off myself but when God
start to help me and -
5:23 - 5:27set me free I started
to walk in it and the -
5:29 - 5:32more I walked in it the
stronger it became -
5:32 - 5:36and often did I see
things happen and since -
5:36 - 5:39last time the last week
I do this teaching -
5:39 - 5:43every week, since last
week I’ve seen two -
5:42 - 5:46people saved when I
did the same with the -
5:46 - 5:49coffee table one was
like four days ago there -
5:50 - 5:54was a guy who seen a video
to me and he wrote to -
5:54 - 5:57me 17years old his parents
is from a religious -
6:00 - 6:03home but he doesn’t
come anymore and he had -
6:03 - 6:06not really experienced
God and salvation -
6:07 - 6:10and he wrote to me and
we met at a coffee -
6:10 - 6:14shop down in the city
where I am and we were -
6:14 - 6:17sitting there we were
drinking coffee and -
6:17 - 6:21I start to talk about
Jesus and I ask him -
6:20 - 6:22I if he had met God
and he hadn’t and I -
6:22 - 6:24talked with him about
the gospel so after -
6:24 - 6:28we drank coffee I did
the same like I showed -
6:28 - 6:31you just in a coffee
shop and when we have -
6:32 - 6:36done that he saw that
what he needed to do -
6:36 - 6:39he saw that he needed
to repent get baptised -
6:39 - 6:42and receive the Holy
Spirit so we did, after -
6:42 - 6:46that we went to a place
where I could pray -
6:46 - 6:48for him but we were
in the city so I need -
6:48 - 6:50to find a place where
we could be alone so -
6:51 - 6:55we find a parking garage
where we went down -
6:55 - 6:58in the basement and there
were no cars there -
6:59 - 7:01so we could be alone
no people no cars, so -
7:01 - 7:03down there in the
basement in the parking -
7:03 - 7:06garage in the middle of
the city I prayed for -
7:06 - 7:08him he repented, he
experienced the Holy -
7:08 - 7:11Spirit he got baptised
with the Holy Spirit -
7:11 - 7:14he started to speak
in tongues and he was -
7:14 - 7:18on fire afterward we
went up again went to -
7:18 - 7:21the city went out find
some sick people and -
7:22 - 7:24he prayed for a woman who
got healed he prayed -
7:24 - 7:26for a woman more got
healed and there was -
7:26 - 7:28one from Greenland who
could not move their -
7:28 - 7:30arm without pain and
she got healed and her -
7:31 - 7:33husband came and another
came and she was -
7:33 - 7:35standing and talking
to them and explaining -
7:35 - 7:37what was happening and
suddenly there were a -
7:37 - 7:40lot of people there and
it was him who did -
7:40 - 7:42it, he prayed for them
afterwards I have to -
7:42 - 7:44go to another place so
I drive him to some -
7:45 - 7:47friends and he went out
in the sea in Denmark -
7:47 - 7:50and got baptised in
water and it was really -
7:50 - 7:53cold but he got baptised
in water and this -
7:53 - 7:57guy was changed and I
said to him, you are -
7:57 - 8:00not living for yourself
anymore you need to -
8:00 - 8:03be bold you need to get
out to many people -
8:03 - 8:06so he went home and
write on face book and -
8:06 - 8:09I’m just going to read
some of it this has -
8:10 - 8:13been the most amazing
day I met a man by the -
8:13 - 8:17name of Torben and he
has the website and -
8:17 - 8:20he has talked about every
believer can have a -
8:20 - 8:22life with Jesus like
the apostle did a life -
8:23 - 8:27of miracles we started
to talk and he explained -
8:27 - 8:30to me all about it so
he could make sure I -
8:32 - 8:35was getting into and then
we went to the parking -
8:35 - 8:39garage and he prayed
for me and I started -
8:38 - 8:41to speak in tongues it
felt so surreal and -
8:41 - 8:44he continued telling
about how people got -
8:45 - 8:48healed and all that
happen in one hour God is -
8:48 - 8:51great and he continues
in how he got baptised -
8:51 - 8:54and it was cold but he
got baptised and then he -
8:54 - 8:57ended up with the reason
I write this testimony -
8:57 - 9:01is that God wants more
for us than just coming -
9:01 - 9:04in church and going to
meetings he wants to -
9:06 - 9:09give us a life with
miracles and healing if -
9:09 - 9:12there is anybody out
there who wants that -
9:12 - 9:16please contact me and
this is what God is -
9:16 - 9:19doing a few days ago I
met this guy sitting -
9:19 - 9:22down going through the
gospel I didn’t pray -
9:22 - 9:25ask Jesus into your
heart I pray with him -
9:25 - 9:27he repented he got
baptised in water he got -
9:27 - 9:29baptised with the Holy
Spirit and he got on -
9:30 - 9:34fire he went home and
shared on Facebook this -
9:34 - 9:37two days later there was
a girl who contacted -
9:40 - 9:43me who had seen this on
his Facebook 17 years -
9:43 - 9:46old also from a religious
background but live -
9:46 - 9:49in sin don’t know God
and many things is -
9:49 - 9:51new who have never heard
about speaking in -
9:51 - 9:55tongues and those things
so I met with her -
9:55 - 9:58on burger king so we
were sitting on burger -
9:58 - 10:01king we were talking again
I shared the gospel -
10:01 - 10:04this time with burger
paper and cups and things -
10:05 - 10:08and I shared the gospel
like I did in the -
10:08 - 10:10video after I shared the
gospel she was ready -
10:10 - 10:13to repent so I had to
find a place where I -
10:13 - 10:15could pray for her so
just beside the burger -
10:16 - 10:20king there was a building
being built but not -
10:20 - 10:23finished so we could
go in that building -
10:24 - 10:27because it was empty and
we went in there and -
10:27 - 10:29I prayed for her the
Holy Spirit touched -
10:30 - 10:33her I got a prophetic
word to her about a -
10:33 - 10:36snake I saw like a snake
that was crawling -
10:36 - 10:40and it was her life and
suddenly I saw the -
10:40 - 10:43snake coming out of the
ground then it got -
10:45 - 10:48wings and was flying
away and how God want -
10:48 - 10:50to set her free and take
her out of what she -
10:50 - 10:53had been crawling in and
when I got that verse -
10:53 - 10:56she was crying and
crying and I prayed and -
10:57 - 11:00she got set free from a
demon there was something -
11:00 - 11:02that left her and she
told me afterward that -
11:02 - 11:06there was a lump coming
up in her throat and -
11:06 - 11:09then it went out and she
felt so free so she -
11:10 - 11:13was changed then we
went to a shop nearby -
11:13 - 11:15find a sick person she
prayed for the first -
11:16 - 11:19sick person who got
healed then she invite -
11:19 - 11:21me to her house I went
there I prayed for -
11:22 - 11:25her mother who got healed
I prayed for one more -
11:25 - 11:27who experienced something
and I was sitting -
11:27 - 11:30with the family, the
mother invited me back -
11:30 - 11:32again because they
want to hear more then -
11:32 - 11:35I took her to some friends
I know who have a -
11:35 - 11:37bathtub and I asked them
if we could baptise -
11:37 - 11:40her there because it was
really cold that day -
11:40 - 11:42also and we did that
so she got baptised -
11:43 - 11:45in the bathtub and when
she came up she laid -
11:45 - 11:47her hands on her and
she got baptised with -
11:47 - 11:50the Holy Spirit and she
started to speak in -
11:50 - 11:52tongues and she was
totally changed what I -
11:53 - 11:57tell you here is should
be everyday life this is -
11:57 - 12:00what he has called us to
those two testimonies -
12:02 - 12:05I have I can share from

12:15 - 12:18gospel that way and get people

testimony I also got -
13:50 - 13:53a letter I like that,
this is a testimony -
13:53 - 13:56from Victoria in Canada
where we have just -
13:56 - 13:58been and I had just
made a new video from -
13:59 - 14:01the trip of Canada
where you see a little -
14:01 - 14:03from each place we’ve
been and this one -
14:04 - 14:07she wrote here I wanted
to send a report from -
14:07 - 14:10Victoria of what
happened to my son after -
14:11 - 14:15you prayed for his
allergy I amazed because -
14:15 - 14:18he has been completely

was also prayed for -
14:22 - 14:25and she also had been

14:40 - 14:44food for them this has
really changed so much -
14:44 - 14:47in how we are able to
live our life so many -
14:50 - 14:54people are shocked to
hear that they have -
14:54 - 14:57been healed love it,
testimony from Victoria -
14:58 - 15:02what God is doing. Ok so again
-
15:02 - 15:05don’t make theology out of my
-
15:06 - 15:10teaching out of the word
of God take the word -
15:10 - 15:13of God and act on it do
it and then you will -
15:15 - 15:18bear fruit, then you
will bear much fruit -
15:18 - 15:21yes now I want to pray
lets pray for today -
15:22 - 15:25and this work because this
is a really important -
15:25 - 15:27word and it’s going
to for many people go -
15:27 - 15:30against their religious
glasses and it’s -
15:30 - 15:32going to be like
‘what’ and this is the -
15:32 - 15:35foundation because I’m
going to talk about -
15:35 - 15:37repentance and this is
so important this is -
15:37 - 15:40the foundation so we
need to understand what -
15:40 - 15:42the word is saying there
God I thank you for -
15:43 - 15:45this day, I thank you
for everything you are -
15:45 - 15:47doing I thank you for
the two people I just -
15:47 - 15:49told their testimony
about who got saved, -
15:49 - 15:51baptised in water and
the Holy Spirit who -
15:52 - 15:55are on fire for you right
now God, God thank -
15:55 - 15:57you because we are
going to see thousands -
15:57 - 16:01of people God in everyday
life get saved God -
16:01 - 16:04burger king or malls in
the city or the work -
16:05 - 16:07place yes God people are
going to get saved and -
16:07 - 16:09I pray that you are
going to help me today -
16:09 - 16:12to share this word and
this word is going -
16:12 - 16:14to help to open their
eyes it’s going to -
16:15 - 16:18set us free so we can
live the life you have -
16:18 - 16:20for us so come with your
Holy Spirit and help -
16:20 - 16:27me to share the word in
the name of Jesus. Amen -
16:27 - 16:30I want to ask you a question
you are a Christian -
16:30 - 16:32I believe that I am
talking to you now as -
16:33 - 16:37a Christian do you look
at yourself as a saint? -
16:37 - 16:40Are we saints as Christians?
Or are we sinners? -
16:46 - 16:48How do you look at the Christians?
How do -
16:48 - 16:50you look at your own life?
Are you a saint? -
16:51 - 16:55Or a sinner? Are we
saints or are we sinners? -
16:55 - 16:58And this is really
important that we have -
17:00 - 17:03the right answer for
this and I have been -
17:03 - 17:06surprised when I’ve
been looking at this -
17:06 - 17:08how much we have been
-
17:08 - 17:10influenced by our traditions
-
17:10 - 17:13our glasses because if I
in Denmark ask people -
17:23 - 17:26if they are saints or
if they are sinners? -
17:26 - 17:29And we are talking about
asking Christians -
17:28 - 17:32in the church almost
everybody in Denmark -
17:32 - 17:35will say ‘we are
sinners!’ Sinners saved -
17:36 - 17:40by grace! Almost none
in Denmark will say -
17:40 - 17:43we are saints because
we are like ‘saints! -
17:47 - 17:51No, no, are you without sin?
Who do you think -
17:51 - 17:54we are and you are? And
it is almost as if -
17:54 - 17:57there is a fear when we
talk about the whole -
17:57 - 18:01part of being a saint no,
we are sinners saved -
18:01 - 18:05by grace we are sinners
every one of us. And -
18:05 - 18:08I had some real discussion
with people about -
18:09 - 18:12this and for me one
thing that helped me to -
18:12 - 18:16take my glasses off is
to travel and to know -
18:18 - 18:20other people from other
places in the world -
18:20 - 18:22I have my friend don
from America working -
18:23 - 18:26with the last reformation
in USA and for me to -
18:26 - 18:30talk with him is so
interesting I am learning -
18:31 - 18:34a lot from him and he
is learning a lot from -
18:34 - 18:37me because this is two
world views that is -
18:37 - 18:41coming together and
when I called him and -
18:41 - 18:44said don are we saints
or are we sinners? -
18:45 - 18:48He said we are saints,
of course we are saints, -
18:48 - 18:51we were sinners but we
got saved now we are -
18:51 - 18:55saints and where he is
living and in his area -
18:55 - 18:58and in the churches he
work with use the word -
19:02 - 19:05saints and in a big part of
America use the word saints. -
19:05 - 19:08There are other places again
-
19:08 - 19:11in other churches denominations
-
19:11 - 19:14of course in America
use sinners. -
19:14 - 19:17But I see a really clear
pattern when we talk -
19:17 - 19:21about those words where
I see that what the -
19:24 - 19:28catholic church and the
reformation is strong -
19:28 - 19:31and in America the
reformation is the reformed -
19:32 - 19:36church and the Calvinistic
and so on, where -
19:36 - 19:39they are strong each other
denomination somehow -
19:41 - 19:45lead to we are sinners
of course we are sinners -
19:45 - 19:48but where they are not
strong where we see -
19:48 - 19:51like a movement of
Pentecostal church and -
19:51 - 19:53other they are more
free believe no we are -
19:54 - 19:58saints. So I see it’s not
just being a Baptist -
19:58 - 20:01or Methodist or Pentecost
who somehow create -
20:07 - 20:11a view of if we are
saints or sinners because -
20:11 - 20:14a Pentecost in Denmark
with a very strong -
20:16 - 20:19Lutheran background have
a different view in -
20:19 - 20:23a Pentecost in another
country where they -
20:24 - 20:28don’t have a Lutheran or
catholic background so -
20:28 - 20:31every church is not only
impacted by themselves -
20:33 - 20:36everybody’s impacted
by the reformation the -
20:36 - 20:39Lutheran church who
is impacted by the -
20:39 - 20:42catholic church. And it is very
-
20:42 - 20:44interesting when you look at
-
20:44 - 20:48this because for me
growing up in Denmark if -
20:48 - 20:51I ask question in
Denmark everybody would -
20:55 - 20:58know we are sinners
we are sinners we are -
20:58 - 21:01sinners we are sinners
but then if you go -
21:02 - 21:03out then of the little box
-
21:03 - 21:05here in the Scandinavian
-
21:05 - 21:08country in the north
Europe for example and -
21:08 - 21:12go out, out of this box
and go to other places -
21:12 - 21:15they are without these
glasses, maybe they -
21:15 - 21:18have other glasses
maybe they don’t but -
21:18 - 21:21they say no, no, no,
no, no we are saints -
21:22 - 21:26so I want to say that
everybody around you -
21:26 - 21:29believe in one thing
don’t make it right -
21:32 - 21:35because everybody around
you can be wrong because -
21:35 - 21:38they are building on
the wrong foundation -
21:38 - 21:40the catholic church the
Lutheran church instead -
21:40 - 21:42of what the word is
saying and we are going -
21:42 - 21:46to look at the word
very soon in Denmark, -
21:46 - 21:49there are people in
Denmark who are like no -
21:50 - 21:53we are sinners, every
Christian is like we -
21:53 - 21:56are sinners and to say
we are saints is like -
21:56 - 21:59no’ this is too holy it’s too
-
21:59 - 22:01much to say you are a saint.
-
22:01 - 22:05And I thought do people
in America say like -
22:05 - 22:08hey we are saints
because they don’t know -
22:10 - 22:13what the word is all
about for example in -
22:13 - 22:16Denmark I say I love you
in Denmark if I say -
22:16 - 22:19it in Danish I’m now
going to learn you -
22:19 - 22:21some Danish words I
love you in Danish is -
22:22 - 22:25yi elskidie and for me
if I say to somebody -
22:25 - 22:29in Danish I love you
yi el skedai this is -
22:34 - 22:37a little hard because you
really mean it so you -
22:37 - 22:41don’t just go and use
the word to somebody -
22:41 - 22:45yea but we in Denmark
is very fast to use -
22:45 - 22:48the English expression,
word ‘I love you’ -
22:48 - 22:52‘I love you too’ but
us as a Danish person -
22:52 - 22:55it is easier to say I
love you in English -
22:57 - 22:59than it is in Danish
because it is just a -
22:59 - 23:02word, we have seen in
TV we have heard it -
23:02 - 23:05in songs in music
everybody o I love you we -
23:05 - 23:08just use the words and
maybe it’s like that -
23:09 - 23:11with ‘saints’ I started
to think about that -
23:11 - 23:14maybe it’s that people
in America just -
23:14 - 23:17hey we are saints they
just use it ‘yes he -
23:17 - 23:20is a saint’ but if you
go to people with -
23:20 - 23:24a catholic background ‘like
saints’ no no saints? -
23:24 - 23:27To become a saint the pope have
-
23:27 - 23:31to make you a saint a
saint is only a few -
23:31 - 23:34people who is something
special and this is -
23:38 - 23:42so interesting if we
look at two things the -
23:42 - 23:45word has been changed
like if we take the -
23:46 - 23:49word Christian everybody
uses the word Christian -
23:49 - 23:51today but if we know
that the word Christian -
23:51 - 23:54means comes from the
word little Christ if -
23:54 - 23:57we look like Jesus
Christ maybe people will -
23:58 - 24:01not just use the word.
But what is a saint? -
24:01 - 24:05A saint the bible says
also holy people are -
24:09 - 24:13you holy? Or are you a
sinner and I want to -
24:13 - 24:16use the word holy now
instead because for -
24:17 - 24:20you now who live in
America the word saint -
24:20 - 24:23has been misused and
that’s why I used the -
24:23 - 24:26word holy people and
sinners but the question -
24:26 - 24:30now what are we? What are you?
Are you a holy -
24:32 - 24:36person? Or are you a sinner?
Let’s see what the -
24:36 - 24:39bible says about it if
I look at the bible -
24:42 - 24:44and the bible says the
saints are holy people -
24:44 - 24:47you can find for example
in the book of acts -
24:47 - 24:51in two places we read
that your holy people -
24:51 - 24:54in Jerusalem so the book
of acts this is Luke -
24:55 - 24:56who wrote the book of acts
-
24:56 - 24:58and about the Christians
-
24:58 - 25:02the disciples he use
the word holy people -
25:01 - 25:05another place in the
same chapter the holy -
25:05 - 25:08ones who live in Luther
so here we see Luke -
25:09 - 25:12who wrote the book of
acts is using the word -
25:12 - 25:15saints or holy people
about the Christians -
25:16 - 25:19but what about the
rest of the bible? Was -
25:19 - 25:22it only in the book
of acts no it’s not -
25:22 - 25:26and you are going to
see now almost every -
25:26 - 25:29letter in the book in
the bible starts with -
25:29 - 25:33and we are going to see
three letters we have -
25:33 - 25:36here Ephesians to Gods
holy people in Ephesus, -
25:37 - 25:41Philippians, to all Gods
holy people in Christ -
25:41 - 25:44Jesus in Philippi,
Colossians to Gods holy -
25:45 - 25:48people in colossi, so
here we read that Paul -
25:48 - 25:52is starting his letters
to the holy people -
25:55 - 25:59in this city to the
holy people in this to -
25:59 - 26:02the holy people in this,
what is interesting -
26:03 - 26:06is if you go to the book
of acts and through -
26:06 - 26:10the bible the new
testament you will always -
26:11 - 26:15see that they called the
Christians holy people -
26:15 - 26:18the saints the holy
people there the holy -
26:22 - 26:25people there the holy
people the holy people -
26:25 - 26:27the holy people, if
you go to the book of -
26:28 - 26:32acts bible new testament
and see how many -
26:32 - 26:35places the Christians the
disciples God called -
26:37 - 26:40the holy people you will
see it so many times -
26:40 - 26:44I’ve counted about 43
44 times in the bible -
26:48 - 26:51you see that they were
called the holy people -
26:51 - 26:55the saints for over
40 times you see that -
26:57 - 27:01do you know how many
times in the bible the -
27:01 - 27:02Christians was called sinners?
-
27:02 - 27:04None! The Christians
-
27:10 - 27:14were never called a sinner
in the bible never, -
27:14 - 27:17never, never, never!
And again do we have -
27:22 - 27:25many churches many minds
that’s today where -
27:25 - 27:29we think is holy to
call ourselves sinners, -
27:30 - 27:34we are sinners saved
by grace and if I look -
27:34 - 27:37in a country like
Denmark and Scandinavia -
27:38 - 27:41country where I have
grown up if I said -
27:41 - 27:45to people we are a
holy people ‘o’ no oo -
27:45 - 27:48it is almost a sin to
call yourself a holy -
27:48 - 27:52people because we are
sinners, sinners, sinners -
27:54 - 27:58and this is so much a
part of our mind set in -
27:58 - 28:01Denmark no matter if it
is a Baptist Methodist -
28:05 - 28:09Pentecostal no matter
what denomination in -
28:09 - 28:12Denmark we think we
are sinners, sinners, -
28:13 - 28:16sinners, sinners, also
after we got saved why -
28:16 - 28:20do we think that? Because
every denomination -
28:21 - 28:24in Denmark and also
where you are living is -
28:24 - 28:27building on the same
foundation the foundation -
28:27 - 28:31is the catholic church
and the Lutheran church -
28:31 - 28:34because it was where this
came in we are sinners -
28:38 - 28:41we are sinners we are
sinners and there is -
28:41 - 28:44one truth in that the
truth is that people -
28:44 - 28:48are sinners and need
salvation but when you -
28:48 - 28:51repent when you get
saved you are not any -
28:57 - 29:00more a sinner. Because a new
-
29:00 - 29:04life has started inside of you
-
29:05 - 29:07but to be honest I believe
and you are going -
29:07 - 29:10to see that today and
next time the problem -
29:10 - 29:13here is that they
didn’t see the new life -
29:13 - 29:17started people continued
being sinners also -
29:18 - 29:20after they got saved because
-
29:20 - 29:22they do not understand
-
29:22 - 29:25the true gospel so if
you go to the book of -
29:27 - 29:30acts to the first
Christians and say hello -
29:30 - 29:33I’m a sinner they will
share the word with -
29:34 - 29:37you and want you to
repent and get saved if -
29:37 - 29:39you then say you are a
saved sinner they will -
29:39 - 29:43look at you like are you crazy?
You cannot -
29:43 - 29:46be a saved sinner
because to get saved is -
29:48 - 29:50to get rid of your sin.
So you are -
29:50 - 29:53not a sinner anymore
we read about -
29:54 - 29:57saved from what save
from our sin Jesus is -
29:57 - 30:01called Jesus and he
saved his people from -
30:02 - 30:05their sin, he should
not save them in their -
30:05 - 30:09sins he should save
them from their sin if -
30:12 - 30:16we think we are saved in
our sin we can continue -
30:16 - 30:19being sinners and being
saved sinners and -
30:19 - 30:22this is a mind-set
that is just wrong you -
30:22 - 30:24don’t find that in the
word of God no we -
30:25 - 30:29are saved from our sin
so we were sinners but -
30:29 - 30:32now we are holy people
I want to say that -
30:34 - 30:38holy people don’t mean
perfect in any way -
30:38 - 30:41so we don’t, are not
able to experience -
30:43 - 30:47that we fall in sin
people can be holy people -
30:47 - 30:50and still fight, the
word of God write to -
30:50 - 30:52the Corinthians and there
was a lot of problem -
30:52 - 30:55in that church in
Corinthians but he still -
30:55 - 30:59called them the
holy people So holy -
30:59 - 31:02is something you
become the day you -
31:02 - 31:06get saved and you
continue and you continue -
31:06 - 31:09that I’m going to talk
about that so what -
31:10 - 31:14you need to know is
that in the bible you -
31:14 - 31:17never find the words
sinners for Christians -
31:18 - 31:21and if that is the truth
why do you call yourself -
31:21 - 31:24sinners why do people
always call themselves -
31:25 - 31:28sinners? When this is
not true because we are -
31:28 - 31:30building on the wrong
foundation and then -
31:31 - 31:34maybe you say yes but’
Paul, Paul, Paul, -
31:34 - 31:38he called himself a
sinner and I’ve been -
31:39 - 31:42sharing this here about
40 different words -
31:42 - 31:46in the bible where you
see places where you -
31:45 - 31:48see the word ‘holy
people’ but it’s not -
31:48 - 31:52like in the bible in
the church people -
31:52 - 31:56don’t know all of those
scriptures the most of -
31:56 - 31:59them know one this is
this one Jesus Christ -
32:00 - 32:03came into the world to
save sinners of who -
32:03 - 32:07I am the worst Paul is
saying that this is -
32:09 - 32:12what we use in Denmark
if you go to Danish -
32:12 - 32:16Christians Lutheran
website and ask question -
32:17 - 32:20are we sinners or not
sinners they will say -
32:20 - 32:23we are sinners and they
will quote this verse -
32:23 - 32:27that Jesus Christ came
to the world to save -
32:27 - 32:30sinners and of whom I
am the worst so they -
32:32 - 32:35say that Paul said about himself
-
32:35 - 32:38that he is the worst sinner.
-
32:38 - 32:41And somehow it has
become holy so I meet -
32:41 - 32:43people like ‘I’m the
most worst sinner’ no -
32:44 - 32:47no I am more worse than
you are no, no, no, I am. -
32:47 - 32:51Almost has become
holy to say I am a -
32:50 - 32:54sinner and people stand
up in church and ‘I -
32:54 - 32:57am a sinner’ and somehow
we make it holy -
32:59 - 33:03but Paul is not saying
he is a sinner if you -
33:03 - 33:06look at this Jesus
Christ came to the world -
33:08 - 33:12to save sinners he is
talking about something -
33:12 - 33:15Jesus not Jesus do right
now but something -
33:15 - 33:19he did he came there
to save sinners and of -
33:19 - 33:22those people he came to
save he was the worst -
33:27 - 33:30why? Because if you see
the words before he -
33:30 - 33:34said that he was blaspheming
he was a violent -
33:34 - 33:38man he was doing a lot
of crazy things you -
33:38 - 33:41know Paul he was going
against the church -
33:42 - 33:45he was trying to kill
the Christians so he -
33:45 - 33:49was a violent man against
God but God saved -
33:53 - 33:56him, so when he is
saying there he was the -
33:56 - 33:58worst sinner he doesn’t
say he is it now, -
33:59 - 34:02he said he was it but
he used the word I am -
34:02 - 34:06because he is talking
about something at that -
34:06 - 34:09moment and try to imagine
it was true that Paul -
34:09 - 34:13was looking at himself
as the worst sinner -
34:12 - 34:16and he thought it was
holy why did he every -
34:16 - 34:19time he write a letter
in the bible write -
34:22 - 34:24to people and called the
-
34:24 - 34:26Christians the holy people?
-
34:26 - 34:29It seems so crazy
he calls himself -
34:29 - 34:33I’m the worst sinner
and to everybody he -
34:33 - 34:36met around he called
them the holy people -
34:38 - 34:41there but me I’m the
worst of all sinners -
34:41 - 34:43can you see it doesn’t
make any sense and -
34:43 - 34:46this is what religion
is and you have seen -
34:46 - 34:48that through in the
last teaching we take -
34:49 - 34:53something that is very
clear in the word of -
34:53 - 34:56God holy people holy
people holy people over -
34:56 - 35:00forty times it is
written holy people and -
35:00 - 35:03then we take one verse
taken out of context -
35:04 - 35:08we don’t understand and
out of that word we -
35:08 - 35:11build our theology and
we don’t see what -
35:12 - 35:15the rest of the word is saying
-
35:15 - 35:17because no we are sinners
-
35:18 - 35:22And this is the foundation
almost every church -
35:22 - 35:25here is building on we
are sinners saved by -
35:25 - 35:29grace can you see it
and it’s all about the -
35:29 - 35:32mind set to understand
who we are in Christ -
35:36 - 35:39and what he has done if
you go with that mind-set -
35:39 - 35:41o you are sinners, you
are sinners you are -
35:41 - 35:44sinners, I’m a sinner I
cannot do anything, do -
35:44 - 35:46you think you are going
to experience freedom -
35:47 - 35:50no you are not you will
see yourself a sinner -
35:50 - 35:53you start to think as
a sinner and you will -
35:53 - 35:54live as a sinner.
-
35:54 - 35:56New creation But if you know
-
35:56 - 35:57that you are a new creation
-
35:58 - 36:02something new has started
you are going to live -
36:02 - 36:05that new life and I
don’t say to everybody -
36:05 - 36:07receiving this teaching
that hey now you should -
36:07 - 36:09just say you are holy
people because many -
36:09 - 36:12maybe is sinners because
you have not repented -
36:12 - 36:15because you are not
saved yet, and I want -
36:16 - 36:19to talk about what
happens when we repent -
36:19 - 36:22what happens in our
life and I don’t want -
36:22 - 36:26to make a lot of theology
out of it I want -
36:26 - 36:29to give you a testimony
of it, but first I -
36:30 - 36:33want to give you some
scriptures this is what -
36:33 - 36:35the word is saying
when we talk about sin -
36:36 - 36:40‘No one who abides in
him sins no one who -
36:40 - 36:43sins has seen him and
knows him’ ‘ouch! -
36:51 - 36:55This is what the word
is saying ‘nobody -
36:55 - 36:58who abides in him’
sins’ no one who sins, -
37:00 - 37:04has seen him and knows
him and remember what -
37:04 - 37:07Matthew chapter 7; 21
was saying we talked -
37:08 - 37:11about before that many
one day is going to -
37:11 - 37:13stand in front of Jesus
and he will say depart -
37:13 - 37:17from me I never knew
you’ you who do sin’ -
37:17 - 37:20this word this is the word of God.
And many -
37:27 - 37:31know other scriptures
from the word of God -
37:31 - 37:34but 1.john 3; 6 is of
course a well-known -
37:35 - 37:39scripture my question
is john 3; 6 more the -
37:39 - 37:42word of God than this verse?
No? Is this verse -
37:49 - 37:53from first Matthew 7;
21 ‘no’ this is the -
37:53 - 37:56truth that nobody
abides in him sins but -
38:04 - 38:07many have a problem
with that because -
38:07 - 38:10‘no, no, no, no, no’
‘hey, relax’ Torben! -
38:11 - 38:15Do you say you don’t sin?
No, no , no remember -
38:15 - 38:18john, john 1;9 john 1;8
and this is what john -
38:20 - 38:241;8-9 says ‘if we claim
to be without sin -
38:24 - 38:27we deceive ourselves
and the truth is not -
38:28 - 38:32in us if we confess our
sin he is faithful -
38:32 - 38:35and just and will
forgive us our sins and -
38:35 - 38:39purify us from all
unrighteousness I want -
38:39 - 38:42to say this is the word
of God and this is -
38:45 - 38:49the word of God religion
take one verse there -
38:49 - 38:52and build a whole
theology out of it and if -
38:55 - 38:59I go to churches today
almost no Christians -
38:59 - 39:02know this verse but
everybody knows this if -
39:08 - 39:12you were living at that
time you didn’t have -
39:12 - 39:15a bible where there was
chapter and verses -
39:16 - 39:20no’ you got the whole
context but today we -
39:20 - 39:23have chapters and
verses and because of -
39:24 - 39:27that many people are
deceived because they -
39:27 - 39:29say no if you say you
are without sin the -
39:29 - 39:32truth is not in you we are all
-
39:32 - 39:34sinners we are all sinners.
-
39:35 - 39:39But you also take this
verse and say but -
39:39 - 39:42if you sin you don’t
know him ‘what is the -
39:43 - 39:47truth? The whole thing
is the truth the word of -
39:47 - 39:50God is the truth, and if
we take our religious -
39:52 - 39:56glasses off we will not
have a problem with -
39:56 - 39:59the word we will not
need to go and take some -
40:00 - 40:03scriptures out and put
it away or just read -
40:03 - 40:06very fast through it
like we don’t see it -
40:07 - 40:10because we have problem
with it and I want -
40:10 - 40:13to share a testimony
from my life because -
40:13 - 40:16the good thing with my
life is that when I -
40:16 - 40:19got saved I didn’t
have so much religious -
40:20 - 40:24luggage I don’t have the
backpack like many other -
40:24 - 40:27I got saved from a
non-Christian background -
40:27 - 40:30I was baptised and firm
in the Lutheran church -
40:30 - 40:32but it was just tradition
I had never opened -
40:32 - 40:35my bible I didn’t know
what the word was -
40:35 - 40:38saying and then I had
a friend who told me -
40:39 - 40:42about Jesus and I came
to a church and there -
40:42 - 40:45the Holy Spirit touched
me and I went up and -
40:45 - 40:48I repented and asked
Jesus to save me when I -
40:48 - 40:50did that I felt like
the Holy Spirit came -
40:51 - 40:54like a light into me I
fall to the floor I was -
40:54 - 40:57laying there I really
met God it was like -
40:58 - 41:01the Holy Spirit all
over my body it was the -
41:01 - 41:03fifth of April 1995 I
remember it like it -
41:03 - 41:06was yesterday it was
so strong I remember I -
41:06 - 41:08stood up again and I
sat down and somebody -
41:09 - 41:11said congratulations you
are born again Torben -
41:11 - 41:13and I was like thank
you but I didn’t know -
41:13 - 41:16what he was talking
about I had never heard -
41:16 - 41:18a word like born
again’ I didn’t know -
41:18 - 41:21what he was talking about
but when I went home -
41:21 - 41:24from that meeting
something have happened -
41:25 - 41:27inside of me. The first thing
-
41:27 - 41:29was I have always afraid of
-
41:30 - 41:32dying I went home I said
to myself Torben you -
41:32 - 41:34are going to die one
day and when I said -
41:35 - 41:37to myself Torben you are
going to die normally -
41:37 - 41:39I would begin to panic
ooo I’m going to -
41:39 - 41:41die’ oo I’m going to
die’ and I would be -
41:41 - 41:43so afraid because I
don’t like to think -
41:43 - 41:46about it that I am going
to die one day. but -
41:46 - 41:49what happened there
this time when I said -
41:50 - 41:53to myself ‘Torben you
are going to die was -
41:53 - 41:55I was on my bicycle
and I was like ‘yes’ -
41:55 - 41:58I’m going home and I thought
‘what is happening? -
41:58 - 42:00I’m not afraid anymore I have
-
42:01 - 42:05got set free from fear
at that moment I didn’t -
42:05 - 42:08know at that time that
Hebrews chapter 2;15 -
42:09 - 42:13was saying that Jesus
Christ came to deliver -
42:13 - 42:16them who through fear
of death were all their -
42:18 - 42:22lifetime subject to
bondage but Jesus Christ -
42:22 - 42:25came to set us free,
us who were held down -
42:26 - 42:30in fear and I experienced
that I didn’t read -
42:30 - 42:33the word and said to
my mind ok the word -
42:34 - 42:38is saying that then I
have to take my mind and -
42:38 - 42:41try to get the fear to
go ‘no’ I experienced -
42:41 - 42:44it in my spirit, and it
happened like that what -
42:44 - 42:47more happened the more
thing that happened -
42:48 - 42:51was that I had become
new I didn’t know about -
42:51 - 42:54the whole thing but
something had happened -
42:54 - 42:57so I came home and
normally I go to a pub -
42:57 - 43:00on Friday and drink
beer so I went to a pub -
43:00 - 43:03like Friday like I was
used to because my -
43:03 - 43:05mind was still the same
I came home I looked -
43:06 - 43:09at myself I say born again?
I look the same? -
43:09 - 43:12For me I looked the same
I didn’t understand -
43:12 - 43:15what was happening so
Friday I went to a pub -
43:15 - 43:18and I went there and
when I stood there I -
43:18 - 43:22looked around and suddenly
my eyes was opened -
43:22 - 43:25and I was like what am I doing here?
I don’t -
43:26 - 43:30belong here I have met
you Jesus ‘no’ and I -
43:30 - 43:33went away and I was
like what is happening? -
43:34 - 43:38I didn’t want that
anymore normally I was -
43:38 - 43:41used to swearing and
used to cuss words and -
43:43 - 43:47I was having a bad
language but when I told -
43:47 - 43:50a lie or misused Gods
name when I did it I -
43:50 - 43:53was like ‘o it tasted
so wrong’ Normally -
43:53 - 43:56I didn’t have a problem with it
-
43:56 - 43:58my whole life I’ve not
had a problem with -
43:58 - 44:00it but now something
had changed inside of -
44:01 - 44:04me and oo it tasted
wrong I didn’t want -
44:04 - 44:07it anymore and then I
stopped doing that. -
44:08 - 44:11One more thing I had a
girlfriend and I was -
44:11 - 44:13used to living in sin
and I went to bed with -
44:13 - 44:17her like young people
who is sinners I was -
44:17 - 44:20a sinner I went to bed
with my girlfriend -
44:20 - 44:24and this time a
girlfriend came to me and -
44:24 - 44:27before she came I had
been thinking ‘what -
44:27 - 44:30does the bible say about
this’ and she came -
44:30 - 44:32and she want to be
together with me and I -
44:33 - 44:37really experienced temptation
there was something -
44:37 - 44:40you know sin there was
something ok, but again -
44:42 - 44:45no, no, no, no I am not
a part of that anymore -
44:45 - 44:47I don’t want that but
I experienced the -
44:47 - 44:51temptation and I got
confused because what -
44:51 - 44:54does the word say? So I
was like God is this -
44:54 - 44:57sin or what? Is it not sin?
God I want to -
44:57 - 45:00do what you want, God
is this sin to go to -
45:00 - 45:03bed with her? and I
tried to remember what -
45:03 - 45:05I had learned when I
got confirmed in the -
45:05 - 45:08Lutheran church and I
didn’t learn anything -
45:08 - 45:10there it was only
tradition about holy days -
45:11 - 45:14and tradition in the
Lutheran church and I -
45:14 - 45:16was thinking what does
the word say and to -
45:16 - 45:19be honest I could not
say at that time that; -
45:19 - 45:21the word says this is
sin’ because I was -
45:22 - 45:26so new and I didn’t
know the word of God so -
45:26 - 45:29what did I do I was
ok God are you there? -
45:29 - 45:32Hello! And the temptation
was so great so -
45:32 - 45:34I was ‘God are you there?
And I did like -
45:34 - 45:37this ok, God you are not
there and I took God -
45:37 - 45:40and put him aside and
I went to bed with -
45:41 - 45:44my girlfriend and this
time immediately I -
45:44 - 45:47had been in bed with
her I was like o no’ -
45:47 - 45:50o no! O sorry’ ‘God what have I done?
What have I done? -
45:50 - 45:53I could just feel inside
-
45:54 - 45:56of me I have sinned.
I have sinned, -
45:56 - 45:57o God forgive me forgive me
-
45:58 - 46:01God I have just found
you I don’t want to -
46:01 - 46:04lose you forgive me
and my whole body was -
46:04 - 46:08grieving to God! To
me I have sinned! And -
46:08 - 46:11it was so clear I had
sinned, it was wrong, -
46:16 - 46:20in that moment I did it I
knew it was wrong and I -
46:20 - 46:23knew at that time that
my friends non-Christian -
46:26 - 46:29friends if they had been
there they had said -
46:29 - 46:32to me common Torben
relax it is like ‘God -
46:33 - 46:36is love’ it is love
everything its ok God -
46:36 - 46:39is not like that it’s
not sin to go to bed -
46:39 - 46:43with your girlfriend
if you love her, they -
46:43 - 46:46would have said that
to me but, no person, -
46:49 - 46:53on earth, could convince
me of something else -
46:53 - 46:56because inside of me I
knew, I knew, I knew -
47:03 - 47:07I had sinned. Why did I know it?
-
47:07 - 47:10Because I repented because
-
47:12 - 47:16repentance is not only
something we do it is -
47:16 - 47:19also something God do,
when we repent from -
47:22 - 47:26our sins and put our
trust in Jesus Christ -
47:26 - 47:29for what he did on the
cross God is going -
47:31 - 47:33to change our life he is
-
47:33 - 47:35going to create something
-
47:35 - 47:38new inside of us and
this is what it is all -
47:41 - 47:44about the new covenant
the new covenant Jesus -
47:44 - 47:47came with those things
because he want to -
47:48 - 47:52save us from our sins
and in the new covenant -
47:52 - 47:55he not only save us in
our sins he save us -
47:57 - 48:01from our sins and he
create a new person you -
48:01 - 48:04read about that in
Jeremiah many years before -
48:05 - 48:09Jesus came there was a
prophesy that God is -
48:09 - 48:12going to create a new
covenant and I will -
48:13 - 48:17put my law Jeremiah
31;33 and I will put my -
48:17 - 48:20law within them and in
their heart and I will -
48:23 - 48:26write it and I will be
their God and they will -
48:27 - 48:30be my people so Jeremiah
many years before -
48:33 - 48:36Jesus he prophesied that
one day he is going -
48:36 - 48:38to create something new
a new covenant and -
48:39 - 48:42there God would take the
stone heart the stone, -
48:42 - 48:45the ten commandments
the law on the stones -
48:46 - 48:50and put it in our heart
he says that here -
48:50 - 48:53and the same scripture
you read right here -
48:53 - 48:56in Hebrews 2 in the new
testament they are -
48:56 - 48:59quoting so in Hebrews 2
when they talk about -
49:00 - 49:03the old covenant and
the new he is quoting -
49:03 - 49:05this that the law is
going to be written in -
49:06 - 49:09our hearts and he will be our
-
49:09 - 49:11God and we will be his people.
-
49:11 - 49:15This is what it is all
about and you have -
49:15 - 49:18the same verse in Ezekiel
11;19 the prophet -
49:23 - 49:27also prophesy ‘And I
will give them one heart -
49:27 - 49:30and I will put a new
spirit within you -
49:32 - 49:36and I will take the stony
heart out of their -
49:36 - 49:39flesh, why do God do that?
Why does God give -
49:40 - 49:44us a new spirit? Why
does God take the stone -
49:44 - 49:47heart out of us? Why
does God give us a new -
49:47 - 49:49heart of flesh? He said
and will give them -
49:49 - 49:51a heart of flesh. That
they may walk in my -
49:51 - 49:55statutes, and keep my
ordinance and to them; -
49:55 - 49:58and they shall be my
people, and I will be -
50:00 - 50:04their God. So this is
what Jesus did he came -
50:04 - 50:07to save us from our sins, why?
How? By giving -
50:14 - 50:18us a new spirit and
giving us a new heart, -
50:18 - 50:21he is going to remove
the stone heart from -
50:23 - 50:27our body and give us a
heart of flesh he is -
50:27 - 50:30going to write the
commandments in our heart -
50:31 - 50:35so we would walk in his
statutes so we could -
50:35 - 50:38keep his commandments not
like ‘go and remember -
50:41 - 50:44the ten commandments, not
like go and remember -
50:44 - 50:46what is wrong what
not wrong ‘no’ but -
50:46 - 50:50by a new creation and it
was what I experienced -
50:50 - 50:53that time many years
ago I experienced that -
50:57 - 51:01why? Because the Gospel
is the power of salvation -
51:01 - 51:04its more than just
religious activities. -
51:05 - 51:09It’s a new body something
new has started -
51:09 - 51:12and what happened with
me I repented ‘God -
51:13 - 51:17forgive me! Forgive me!
Forgive me! And at -
51:17 - 51:20that moment I was new
and I really need to -
51:21 - 51:23have God to show me
that he had forgiven me -
51:23 - 51:25because I was so new
in it I didn’t know -
51:25 - 51:29the whole word was praying
and I was confused -
51:29 - 51:32so I heard there was a
church open in another -
51:32 - 51:34city close by they had
a meeting that night -
51:34 - 51:36so I jump in the car I
went there on the way -
51:37 - 51:40I said God forgive me!
Forgive me! God -
51:40 - 51:42next time I’m going to
be with a girl it’s -
51:43 - 51:47going to be with my wife
on honeymoon God, help me! -
51:47 - 51:50God help me, forgive me!
And then -
51:52 - 51:55something amazing
happened because I was -
51:55 - 51:57at the meeting people
didn’t know me’ only -
51:57 - 52:00a few people who I had
seen before and I was -
52:00 - 52:02at that meeting and
there was a woman who -
52:02 - 52:05was standing up in the
beginning of the meeting -
52:05 - 52:07and she said I have a
word ‘I see a young -
52:08 - 52:11standing in front of
something he should not -
52:11 - 52:14do he didn’t know I
was seeing it and he -
52:14 - 52:18took me and put me aside
and he sinned but -
52:18 - 52:21he has repented and I
forgive him right now -
52:24 - 52:28and I was standing there
and I was shocked -
52:28 - 52:31because I was alone
with my girlfriend and -
52:31 - 52:35I do like that alone
because you are never -
52:35 - 52:38alone God sees everything
but I thought ‘O’ -
52:39 - 52:43God and I put God aside,
but God saw it and -
52:43 - 52:46then I went to the
meeting and she not only -
52:50 - 52:54said the words she was
saying she prayed like -
52:54 - 52:57I did at home in my
apartment and from that -
52:59 - 53:02moment I have known
that God see everything -
53:02 - 53:04and also if we close
the door and close the -
53:04 - 53:07light he sees everything. And I
-
53:07 - 53:10was standing there
wow’ God thank -
53:11 - 53:14you because you forgive me!
And immediately -
53:14 - 53:16the Holy Spirit came
and I was like and I -
53:16 - 53:20met God and I was so
high I could almost fly -
53:20 - 53:23home in my car ‘I am forgiven!
And I was -
53:23 - 53:26so happy! I was so high
and I said to God, -
53:26 - 53:29God next one is going
to be my wife on my -
53:30 - 53:33honeymoon I want to date you now.
That way -
53:33 - 53:35I want to know you I
don’t want to focus -
53:35 - 53:38on girls now I want
to seek you I want to -
53:38 - 53:40know you and you have
to find a woman for -
53:41 - 53:44me and I prayed that
three months later I -
53:44 - 53:46was to a big Christian
concert in another -
53:47 - 53:50end of Denmark with
another 500 people and I -
53:50 - 53:52was standing there
worshiping God and suddenly -
53:52 - 53:54God spoke to me I’ve
not been thinking of -
53:54 - 53:56girls, the last month
because my focus was -
53:57 - 54:00God and there God spoke
to me and said Torben, -
54:00 - 54:02the one who is standing
behind you she is -
54:02 - 54:03going to be your wife someday,
-
54:03 - 54:05and I was like ‘what?
-
54:05 - 54:07And then I turned
around and like -
54:08 - 54:11wow’ I saw a girl behind
me and I was like -
54:11 - 54:13this is my wife! This
is my wife and I turn -
54:13 - 54:16around again and I was
like wow and I just -
54:16 - 54:19knew my wife was
standing behind me. Like -
54:20 - 54:23seven rows down and
when I saw that I knew -
54:23 - 54:26it, this concert was
over it was like the -
54:26 - 54:28last song and I had to
hurry home and I was -
54:28 - 54:30driving with a friend
who was waiting for -
54:30 - 54:33me so I did only like
smile to her as she was -
54:33 - 54:36standing a distance I
only smiled to her -
54:37 - 54:39and then I jump in the
car and went home and -
54:39 - 54:41I said to my friend
on my way home hey’ -
54:41 - 54:43Michael I’ve just met
my wife’ I don’t -
54:43 - 54:45know her name, I don’t
know where she is -
54:46 - 54:48from ‘I don’t know
anything about her but -
54:48 - 54:50God had told me the
one who standing with -
54:50 - 54:54that yellow dress is going
to be my wife someday. -
54:54 - 54:57I just knew it and I
came home and said God -
54:57 - 54:59I don’t know where she
is from in Denmark -
54:59 - 55:00but you have to put us
together again three -
55:00 - 55:03months later I saw her
like ‘hello and I get -
55:03 - 55:06to know her I talked
with her and we got -
55:06 - 55:10married and three days
ago we have been married -
55:10 - 55:1317 years and have 3 children.
And I have learned -
55:14 - 55:18that when we repent
from our ways from our -
55:18 - 55:21sins God has something
much better for us -
55:22 - 55:26my wife is so amazing
she is so holy she has -
55:26 - 55:29grown up in a Christian
family she had never -
55:29 - 55:32kissed anybody else
than me she had never -
55:32 - 55:35been together with
somebody she had been kept -
55:35 - 55:39by God and she is so
strong and when we talk -
55:39 - 55:42about living in sin I
learned so much from -
55:43 - 55:46my wife because I can
see so much in my wife -
55:46 - 55:49that is so different
from so many other and -
55:50 - 55:53you have heard her songs
she has gone through -
55:53 - 55:55a lot she is so strong.
She is the strong -
55:55 - 55:58home in many ways in
our family and often -
55:58 - 56:01when we travel together
I take my wife with -
56:02 - 56:05me and we are working
together now it’s me -
56:05 - 56:08who is the public
person here you see me -
56:08 - 56:12often and people see me
more but I’m not who I -
56:12 - 56:15am without my wife. My
wife is the strength -
56:16 - 56:20she is so amazing and
God has put us together -
56:20 - 56:23no doubt of that. So we
can see if we repent -
56:24 - 56:28of our ways God has
something better for us. -
56:28 - 56:31And what about ‘no one
who abides in him -
56:35 - 56:39sins? No one who sins
has seen him and know -
56:39 - 56:42him and another verse
1 John 3;9 no one who -
56:49 - 56:53is born of God will
continue in sin because -
56:53 - 56:56God’s seeds remain in
him, they cannot go -
56:59 - 57:03on sinning because
they have been born of -
57:03 - 57:06God, what does that mean?
I think this is -
57:10 - 57:13a good translation
that they cannot go on -
57:13 - 57:16sinning because they are
born by God and this -
57:16 - 57:20also is no one who abides
in him sins, nobody -
57:20 - 57:23who abides in him goes
on sinning, this is -
57:23 - 57:26often what the word is
saying like john 3;16 -
57:26 - 57:29For God so much loved
the world that he sent -
57:30 - 57:34his only Son that
everybody who believe in -
57:34 - 57:37him shall have eternal
life the word is for -
57:37 - 57:40everybody who believe
in him and continue -
57:40 - 57:43believing in him so in
the word this is not -
57:44 - 57:47talking about somebody
who just believe one -
57:47 - 57:50time many years ago
the word if you go in -
57:50 - 57:54is the continued word
everybody who believe and -
57:54 - 57:57continue to believe
this is the same nobody -
58:03 - 58:06who is born of God will
continue to sin why -
58:07 - 58:10because he is born of
God why would he not -
58:12 - 58:16continue in sin because
the law has been put -
58:16 - 58:19in his heart, this is
what I experienced this -
58:19 - 58:22is what many millions
of people around the -
58:22 - 58:24world experienced when
you repent from your -
58:25 - 58:28sins when you believe
in Jesus Christ God is -
58:28 - 58:31going to create a new
heart inside of you -
58:32 - 58:36‘and that means that you
cannot go on sinning’ -
58:36 - 58:39the woman who was
caught in adultery came -
58:43 - 58:46to Jesus and they want
to stone her and Jesus -
58:46 - 58:49did not condemn her
he forgave her but he -
58:49 - 58:53also said to her ‘now
you are forgiven go and -
58:53 - 58:56sin no more’ what if
she had just continued -
58:57 - 59:00sinning? We cannot
continue sinning when we -
59:00 - 59:03have been forgiven we
need to understand that -
59:04 - 59:08this word is also right
if we confess our -
59:08 - 59:11sins he is faithful and
just to forgive us -
59:12 - 59:15we need to understand
that forgiveness -
59:15 - 59:18has to do with repentance.
-
59:18 - 59:22And repentance has to
do with your heart your -
59:22 - 59:25mind and has to do with
ceasing from sinning. -
59:26 - 59:30I got forgiven when I
sinned but I didn’t -
59:30 - 59:33continue in sin because
I know what the word -
59:36 - 59:40is saying and it is like
we have a world today -
59:40 - 59:43in church who don’t
know what the word is -
59:43 - 59:46saying they don’t know
the truth of God if -
59:46 - 59:49I go to Hebrew for
example and I’m going -
59:50 - 59:54to read a verse that is
also the word of God -
59:54 - 59:57exactly like john 3;16
and other verses and -
59:58 - 60:02the word here in Hebrews
chapter 10 verse 26 -
60:02 - 60:05if we sin wilfully
after we have received -
60:05 - 60:09the knowledge of the
truth there no longer -
60:09 - 60:12remains a sacrifice for sin.
If we go sin -
60:19 - 60:23wilfully there is no
longer a sacrifice for our -
60:23 - 60:26sin the result will be
eternal punishment. -
60:29 - 60:32This is what the verse
is saying many know -
60:32 - 60:34this word and read
that word and are like -
60:35 - 60:39o sin wilfully o’ but I
have sinned wilfully! -
60:39 - 60:42What does that word mean?
And I want to say -
60:43 - 60:46when I stand there in
front of my I went to -
60:46 - 60:49bed with her I was
sinning wilfully I knew -
60:50 - 60:54it inside somehow I
didn’t know it but at -
60:54 - 60:57the same time I knew it.
And I did sin but -
60:57 - 61:01God forgave me. The word
here if you sin wilfully -
61:01 - 61:04is the same word if you
continue sinning if -
61:05 - 61:09you continue sinning
wilfully you can come -
61:09 - 61:12to that part where the
Holy Spirit is going -
61:15 - 61:19to leave you and I sad
enough know people who -
61:19 - 61:22got saved they were
living with a girlfriend -
61:22 - 61:25and they could not continue
in that sin because -
61:25 - 61:28they got saved and then
they move away from -
61:29 - 61:33the girlfriend later
they opened them up to -
61:33 - 61:36sin again, and slowly
sin came in and slowly -
61:36 - 61:40and slowly and then
after some time ended -
61:40 - 61:43up with the girlfriend
again and I met them -
61:44 - 61:47and I asked them do you
have a problem with -
61:47 - 61:50this and they said
‘no’ but before they -
61:51 - 61:55had. What had happened?
One time they experienced -
61:55 - 61:58the salvation the Holy
Spirit in their heart -
61:59 - 62:03but because they didn’t
keep because they -
62:03 - 62:06didn’t understand we
have to be careful -
62:07 - 62:11with what God have given
us and listen to the -
62:11 - 62:14Holy Spirit I believe
those people continued -
62:16 - 62:18going against the Holy Spirit
-
62:18 - 62:20the heart inside of them.
-
62:20 - 62:23And because they
continued in that -
62:23 - 62:26the Holy Spirit got sad
and left them. And -
62:26 - 62:29now they ended up in
sin again and the last -
62:29 - 62:31part is going to be worse than
-
62:31 - 62:32the first the bible says.
-
62:32 - 62:35When we talk about sin it’s
-
62:35 - 62:37like we have not
understood what it is all -
62:37 - 62:39about in church it is
like are still the whole -
62:40 - 62:43part we are all sinners
instead of understanding -
62:43 - 62:46we ‘were’ sinners’
but God created a -
62:47 - 62:51new heart inside of
us and if we had that -
62:51 - 62:54we cannot continue
living in wilfully sin -
62:54 - 62:58because we have the new heart.
-
62:58 - 63:01Let’s go to the first book of
-
63:11 - 63:15john chapter 3; 7 they
talk about the children -
63:15 - 63:18of God and talk about
some of the things I -
63:18 - 63:22have been reading here.
Little children, let no -
63:22 - 63:25one deceive you him who
practice righteousness -
63:33 - 63:37is righteous just as
he is righteous. Him -
63:37 - 63:40who sins is of the devil
for the devil for -
63:41 - 63:45the devil as sinned
from the beginning for -
63:45 - 63:48the promise of God was
manifested that he -
63:49 - 63:53might destroy the works of the devil.
So Jesus -
63:53 - 63:56came to destroy the sin
in us and in verse -
63:58 - 64:0210 we read this, this
is how we know who the -
64:02 - 64:05children of God are and
who the children of -
64:06 - 64:10the devil are anyone
who does not do what -
64:10 - 64:13is right is not Gods
children nor is anyone -
64:17 - 64:21who does not love his
brother or sister. This -
64:21 - 64:24is what john is saying
‘this is how we know -
64:27 - 64:31who is the children
of God and who is the -
64:31 - 64:34children of the devil
this is how we know -
64:36 - 64:40this is just after this
verse we read this, this -
64:40 - 64:43is how we know, how do
we know by everybody -
64:45 - 64:49who is born again will
not continue in sin -
64:49 - 64:52by this you will know
who is the children -
64:54 - 64:58of God and who is not. It’s not
-
64:58 - 65:01by speaking in tongues you know
-
65:03 - 65:07you have repented, done
the first thing it’s -
65:07 - 65:10not by speaking in tongues
it’s not by healing -
65:10 - 65:14the sick but that we know
that we have repented, -
65:14 - 65:17we know it by this is
how we know who is the -
65:21 - 65:25children of God and who
is not I talk to many, -
65:25 - 65:28many people and I meet
many non-Christians -
65:29 - 65:32I meet many Christians
when I talk to religious -
65:32 - 65:35people in the church I
many times sit in front -
65:36 - 65:40of young people and I
ask them do you live in -
65:40 - 65:43sin with your girlfriend?
And do you go to bed -
65:50 - 65:53with your girlfriend?
And they are like ‘yes’ -
65:53 - 65:57ok do you have problem
with that yes I think -
66:00 - 66:02I have ok why? Do you have
-
66:02 - 66:04a problem in your mind?
-
66:04 - 66:07Because you have
heard that this is -
66:07 - 66:10wrong or do you feel
inside here that this -
66:10 - 66:13is completely wrong?
Many will say ‘I have -
66:14 - 66:18a problem in my mind’
why would they say -
66:18 - 66:21that because if it was
from inside here it -
66:22 - 66:26would not be very like
this is wrong’ it -
66:26 - 66:29would be like me YOU ARE SINNING!
You are -
66:29 - 66:33sinning! And they would
not be I doubt, they -
66:33 - 66:36would know that are
sinning because they are -
66:36 - 66:38born of God, But because they
-
66:38 - 66:40are not born of God they
-
66:41 - 66:44are only religious in
their mind set they -
66:44 - 66:47have no problem with
sin they know in their -
66:47 - 66:50mind set that I should
not do that it’s -
66:50 - 66:52wrong but they have
never got it from their -
66:53 - 66:57mind down to their
spirit and that is why -
66:57 - 67:00we have many in the
church today who live -
67:00 - 67:04in sin and we call them
still ‘Christians’ we -
67:04 - 67:07call them sinners but
sinners who is going -
67:08 - 67:12to heaven because we are
all sinners you know -
67:12 - 67:15yea they live in sin
but we all live in sin -
67:15 - 67:18they continue in sin
but they believe in -
67:18 - 67:21God ‘no’ it’s not by
who believe God but -
67:22 - 67:26by this you know who
is the children of God -
67:26 - 67:29and who is not by this,
if people live in -
67:31 - 67:35wilful sin and you know
it and you see it, -
67:35 - 67:38it doesn’t matter what
they believe if they -
67:42 - 67:46live in wilful sin they
are not born again -
67:46 - 67:49also if they come in
church if he is a priest -
67:50 - 67:54if he say he knows God
and he reads the bible -
67:54 - 67:57he is not born again
because God came to create -
67:58 - 68:02a new heart he is still
holy he has not changed -
68:02 - 68:05he is the same as we
read in the old covenant -
68:06 - 68:10he has not changed it
is us who need to get -
68:10 - 68:13changed by the spirit
of God by the law of -
68:13 - 68:17God is written in our
heart and this is what -
68:17 - 68:20happened when repentance
happens, tom are -
68:21 - 68:25you without sin ‘no’ I
don’t say I am where -
68:25 - 68:28I should be, but I
am not where I used -
68:31 - 68:35to be but I know there
is more because I need -
68:35 - 68:38to look like Christ and
I want to look like -
68:39 - 68:42Christ when I got saved
in the beginning it -
68:42 - 68:46was like the big thing
like I did sin ‘aa -
68:46 - 68:50I could not do…that
anymore, and then it -
68:50 - 68:53was easier for me to
cut it off and not do -
68:53 - 68:57that anymore but you
cannot like the head and -
68:57 - 69:00the mind separate them
but then God started -
69:03 - 69:07to deal with that in
me and then it was my -
69:07 - 69:10false life ‘why did I
react the way I did? -
69:11 - 69:14Why did I say the thing I said?
Was it to -
69:14 - 69:17build my kingdom? To
be proud or why did I -
69:17 - 69:19do what I did? And God continued
-
69:19 - 69:21working in me and he still
-
69:22 - 69:25works in me today and
he is going to continue -
69:25 - 69:27working in me until
the day I’m going to -
69:27 - 69:30stand in front of him
but I want to make him -
69:30 - 69:33continue working in me
because if I just stop -
69:34 - 69:38and say no’ this is
enough common, then -
69:38 - 69:41he is not my Lord. I
need to let him work -
69:42 - 69:45in me. And there was a
period in my life where -
69:45 - 69:47he really went deeper
and deeper and deeper -
69:47 - 69:51and deeper and deeper and deeper.
And I want -
69:51 - 69:54to say there is a
difference between living -
69:55 - 69:59in wilful sin and being
bound to sin, and -
69:59 - 70:02I repented in many
ways and I experienced -
70:05 - 70:09a freedom I did, but there
was still something -
70:09 - 70:12in my life I could not
get rid of there was -
70:12 - 70:15one thing there and
there was a few things, -
70:15 - 70:18I didn’t love it I
didn’t want to live -
70:19 - 70:22in it but I fall in
it, in this thing and -
70:22 - 70:25other thing, and I
was like oo I didn’t -
70:25 - 70:29feel free and it tormented
me but then I got -
70:29 - 70:32baptised and when I got
baptise, not immediately, -
70:37 - 70:41nothing happened but
later I got a revelation -
70:41 - 70:44out of what baptism was
and I started to walk -
70:45 - 70:49in romans 6. Freedom
from sin, one time I -
70:49 - 70:52read romans 6 freedom
from sin each time I -
70:56 - 71:00read romans 6;14 And
when I suddenly saw -
71:00 - 71:03what it is all about I
was like I am free ‘I -
71:04 - 71:08am free and from that
moment I experienced a -
71:08 - 71:11new beginning one more
time I experienced -
71:11 - 71:14a freedom from sin the
last thing was broken -
71:14 - 71:17in my life and it became
a new beginning one -
71:18 - 71:22more time because those
things have to do -
71:22 - 71:25with sin everything has
to do with cleansing -
71:25 - 71:29and sin but today we
have many people we have -
71:29 - 71:32the catholic church and
the Lutheran church -
71:32 - 71:35and Calvinistic and
other churches -
71:35 - 71:37who are not baptised in water.
-
71:37 - 71:41And because they are
not baptised in water -
71:41 - 71:44they cannot walk in romans 6.
They don’t -
71:45 - 71:48experience the freedom
they are walking in -
71:48 - 71:50romans 7 and they are
fighting with guilt -
71:51 - 71:53many are and because
they don’t have the -
71:53 - 71:55baptism in water and
the freedom from sin -
71:56 - 72:00they build a theology
out of their experience -
72:00 - 72:03and their theology becomes
like we are sinners’ -
72:04 - 72:07we are all sinners’
instead of we are saints -
72:07 - 72:10we are holy because
Jesus did not come to -
72:11 - 72:15save us in our sin he
came to save us from -
72:15 - 72:18our sin and I want to
say Jesus said to the -
72:20 - 72:24Pharisee in Matthew 23
woe unto you scribes -
72:24 - 72:27and Pharisees hypocrites
and he said you are -
72:31 - 72:35cleansing the cup outside
but inside is still -
72:35 - 72:38rotten it is so rotten
inside and he said -
72:39 - 72:43‘cleanse the cup inside
and it will also be -
72:43 - 72:46clean outside and this
is the problem with -
72:48 - 72:51the Pharisees this is
the problem with the -
72:51 - 72:53religious people, today
the religious people -
72:54 - 72:58cleanse the cup outside
but inside the still -
72:58 - 73:01feel so rotten and I’ve
met so many people -
73:05 - 73:09who have grown up in
religious traditions -
73:09 - 73:12and when I come with
this you can be free -
73:14 - 73:17then it is good news
because they had tried -
73:17 - 73:19to walk as a Christian
for many years and -
73:19 - 73:23know everything but they
always feel condemned -
73:23 - 73:26and they always fighting
and sinning fighting -
73:28 - 73:30and sinning instead of
-
73:30 - 73:32experiencing the freedom why?
-
73:32 - 73:35Because nobody has
cleansed their life -
73:37 - 73:41inside by the new heart
the freedom in baptism -
73:41 - 73:44and because they are
not cleansed they feel -
73:44 - 73:48rotten inside and they
are for many are rotten -
73:48 - 73:51inside and I want to
say I have met people -
73:51 - 73:54many who have come in
churches many years and -
73:54 - 73:57they thought they were
saved and do everything -
73:57 - 74:00but when they really
got saved they -
74:00 - 74:03said like now I was so deceived.
-
74:03 - 74:06And to be honest I met
that in Pentecostal -
74:06 - 74:08churches there I met
in the Baptist church -
74:09 - 74:13I met in that many places
because it is more -
74:13 - 74:16than religious it is
life and we should not -
74:18 - 74:22build theology out of
life and I want to say -
74:22 - 74:25my experience with
freedom from sin didn’t -
74:29 - 74:33come by laying on hands
on me in two seconds -
74:33 - 74:36‘no it came by seeking
God, by repentance -
74:38 - 74:41by fasting, by seeking
God and I think our -
74:41 - 74:44problem is sometimes
that we want the big -
74:45 - 74:49thing here now, and
we are not able to do -
74:49 - 74:52what it takes to come
into the freedom God -
74:52 - 74:56has for us, we don’t
do what it takes and -
74:56 - 74:59because of that many don’t
walk in the freedom -
75:04 - 75:07next time I am going
to talk about baptism -
75:07 - 75:09in water we are going
to do it again with -
75:10 - 75:13sin I’m going to share
my testimony how I -
75:13 - 75:16experienced the freedom
from sin and I have -
75:16 - 75:20it in my book and I have
just got this today -
75:20 - 75:23just today before I
did this teaching the -
75:23 - 75:26post came with this
book this is the first -
75:26 - 75:29time I like hold it in
my hand almost I got -
75:30 - 75:33it like one hour ago and
this is my book ‘The -
75:33 - 75:36Sound Doctrine’ and
it had just come out -
75:36 - 75:40of amazon and I order it
from amazon and that’s -
75:40 - 75:43why I got it here and
you can order it on -
75:43 - 75:45amazon right now and you can
-
75:45 - 75:47go on my website and find it.
-
75:47 - 75:50And in this book
I tell the story -
75:51 - 75:55about how I fasted how
I experienced freedom -
75:55 - 75:58from sin and hate sin
and you need to hate -
75:58 - 76:01sin in order to be free
from sin and I tell -
76:01 - 76:04my story about how I
experienced freedom so -
76:04 - 76:08if you want more
teaching and again I’m -
76:08 - 76:11not speaking English
normal so I’m not so -
76:12 - 76:15much into detail it’s
also because English -
76:15 - 76:17is still something I
am learning but here -
76:17 - 76:20there is much more scriptures.
And there -
76:20 - 76:23is more detail about
sin about fear -
76:24 - 76:27God, about freedom from
sin, so I encourage -
76:27 - 76:30you to go and buy this
book on amazon and -
76:30 - 76:34read that till I come
back because next time -
76:34 - 76:37we are going to continue
it, so this is the -
76:38 - 76:42word for you I want to
end this video by saying -
76:42 - 76:45where are you? Where are you?
when I talk -
76:47 - 76:51about this and I know
many of you is grown -
76:51 - 76:54up in a Christian family
and sometimes it’s -
76:55 - 76:59not so easy because you
know everything you -
76:59 - 77:02know how to live and
you think is that in -
77:03 - 77:06my mind in my spirit? The
most important thing -
77:06 - 77:08is do you live in sin now?
Do you experience -
77:09 - 77:12freedom? From sin? I have
that if I do something -
77:12 - 77:15wrong I can feel like
oo I should not go out -
77:15 - 77:18of this way’ I should
stop now this is if -
77:18 - 77:21I go further here this
is sin’ and I can -
77:21 - 77:23feel it inside of me and I
-
77:23 - 77:25don’t know where you are?
-
77:25 - 77:28Have you never
experienced that and -
77:30 - 77:33live in sin? If you live
in sin then you are -
77:33 - 77:35not born again, and you
have to repent and -
77:36 - 77:39you have to repent and
understand this and -
77:39 - 77:41give everything to God
and be baptised in -
77:42 - 77:45water and Holy
Spirit if you don’t -
77:45 - 77:48have that to come
in to know him. -
77:48 - 77:50But maybe you are there
-
77:50 - 77:52maybe you have experienced
-
77:52 - 77:55that but you are slow
to hearing or you were -
77:57 - 78:00some time ago more
radical in that area and -
78:00 - 78:02I want to say then you
have to do something -
78:03 - 78:06about it also and if
TV is the problem then -
78:06 - 78:09throw it out of the
house do what you need -
78:09 - 78:13to do to get rid of the
thing that hinders -
78:13 - 78:16you, to live radical,
get rid of the thing -
78:17 - 78:20that hinders you from being holy.
And often -
78:20 - 78:22if we know what it was
all about it will come -
78:22 - 78:25by itself because we will
keep away from things -
78:25 - 78:27we don’t have a TV in
our house it’s not -
78:28 - 78:32because I will sit and
look at porn on TV -
78:32 - 78:35and because of internet
if I want to look -
78:36 - 78:38at porn I could do it
but now I have so much -
78:38 - 78:40fear of God in my life
and I experience freedom -
78:40 - 78:43so I don’t do that but
I don’t have a TV -
78:43 - 78:46because jus the normal
things somehow I -
78:47 - 78:51can use my time on and
it make me slow I makes -
78:51 - 78:54me somehow dull ‘sluggish’
in mind I don’t -
78:54 - 78:57know the English word
it made me passive, -
78:57 - 78:59like it doesn’t matter
so much its ok to -
78:59 - 79:03look at this its ok to
film me with that and -
79:03 - 79:06many Christians look
at TV all the time and -
79:07 - 79:08listen to non-Christian music
-
79:08 - 79:10and I don’t understand how?
-
79:10 - 79:12you cannot do that, you need
-
79:12 - 79:16to fill your spirit with
good things you need -
79:16 - 79:19to fill your spirit and
if you go it’s not -
79:20 - 79:24only about keeping away
from sin because in -
79:24 - 79:27Galatians 5 you read
about the fruit of the -
79:31 - 79:35flesh and the fruit of
the spirit in verse -
79:35 - 79:3819 The works of the
flesh are; then there -
79:40 - 79:44is a long list including
idolatry and jealousy -
79:44 - 79:47and a lot of things and
he said there they -
79:49 - 79:52who practice such things
will never inherit -
79:52 - 79:55the kingdom of God so
he said that to the -
79:55 - 79:59Christians if you go out
of that way this is -
79:59 - 80:02what he says you are
never going to inherit -
80:03 - 80:07the kingdom of God but
then he is talking about -
80:07 - 80:10the fruits of the
spirit; love joy peace -
80:12 - 80:15longsuffering kindness
goodness faithfulness, -
80:15 - 80:19and he talks about that
and he said and those -
80:20 - 80:24who are in Christ have
crucified the flesh -
80:24 - 80:27with its passion and
desires if you are in -
80:29 - 80:33Christ and you belong to
him you have crucified -
80:33 - 80:34your flesh what is a Christian?
-
80:34 - 80:36What is repentance?
-
80:40 - 80:43Repentance is that you
are walking by the -
80:43 - 80:46flesh you are walking
out of that road a big -
80:47 - 80:50road that lead to
adjustment you are walking -
80:50 - 80:53out of that road and
you are doing exactly -
80:53 - 80:57the things you read
about in Galatians 5.19 -
80:57 - 81:00but then you repented
you turn away from it -
81:04 - 81:07toward God and you
experience God lay -
81:07 - 81:10the law inside of
you, you become new. -
81:10 - 81:14And then you start to
walk the new life where -
81:14 - 81:17you are not led by the
flesh but by the spirit -
81:21 - 81:24I want to say ‘where are
you in all of this’ -
81:24 - 81:27now I’ve been teaching
and some of I believe -
81:27 - 81:30there are some who are
not saved I believe -
81:30 - 81:33there are people who
have not been baptised -
81:32 - 81:34in water and they don’t
experience the freedom -
81:34 - 81:36I believe there is
people because of their -
81:37 - 81:40religious glasses have
a problem with this -
81:40 - 81:43with what I am teaching
if there is a longing -
81:43 - 81:46inside of you and can
see this is right I -
81:46 - 81:48want that I want that
I want to be a saint -
81:49 - 81:52I want to experience the
freedom God has for -
81:52 - 81:54me but how I am standing
here and all of that -
81:55 - 81:59I want to say relax
seek God and listen to -
81:59 - 82:02what God is dealing in
you and the problem -
82:03 - 82:06with teaching like this
is that people are -
82:06 - 82:09so different in their journey.
But there is -
82:10 - 82:13one who knows where
you are right now and -
82:13 - 82:16this is God and he knows
what you need maybe -
82:16 - 82:19you need to repent and get
saved and get baptised -
82:19 - 82:23in water and then God
he know it and you know -
82:22 - 82:25it and he will talk to
you and he will show -
82:25 - 82:28it to you maybe you
are saved but you are -
82:29 - 82:32bound to sin and you
need to get baptised or -
82:32 - 82:35you need a revelation
about what your baptism -
82:35 - 82:38in water was and there
you read in romans 6. -
82:38 - 82:41The Holy Spirit to
open your eyes and set -
82:42 - 82:45you free maybe you are
playing with sin and -
82:45 - 82:48the reason you are saved
you are playing with -
82:48 - 82:51sin and that is why you
are struggling with sin -
82:51 - 82:54and then you have to
repent cut the things -
82:54 - 82:57off in your life maybe
cut the internet out -
82:57 - 83:00drop the internet for
a while until you get -
83:01 - 83:04fear of God in your life
so you can have internet -
83:04 - 83:07again without sinning
you know what you are -
83:08 - 83:12fighting with and you
need to be free from -
83:12 - 83:15that because you need
to walk in Christ not -
83:16 - 83:19after the flesh but
after the spirit -
83:19 - 83:21this is what we
all called to do. -
83:21 - 83:24And if you have sin
in your life when you -
83:24 - 83:27repent and you don’t
turn away from things -
83:28 - 83:32repent if you confess
your sin God is faithful -
83:32 - 83:35to forgive you, also
if you don’t get this -
83:38 - 83:41strong experience like
I got in the beginning -
83:41 - 83:43because often I don’t
do that anymore but -
83:43 - 83:46if I do something and
God is reading me and I -
83:46 - 83:48am so sorry and I just
know I am free, don’t -
83:49 - 83:51do that anymore not
because I said the right -
83:51 - 83:53word but because I
confess but I know that -
83:54 - 83:57he is working and he
is cleansing me and I -
83:57 - 83:59do things and he forgives
me and to confess -
84:00 - 84:03your sins it’s not
only for God it’s also -
84:03 - 84:05to know remind yourself
that this was wrong -
84:06 - 84:09so I’m not going to
continue in this but -
84:09 - 84:13God is faithful. And
I don’t know where -
84:13 - 84:16you are and I want to
say it’s ok to have a -
84:16 - 84:20time where you get confused
about this because -
84:20 - 84:23when God start to deal
with me six years after -
84:23 - 84:25I got saved he start
to deal with me about -
84:25 - 84:27sin again. And I start to be
-
84:27 - 84:29confused and wow what about
-
84:29 - 84:32this and what about this
too, and then I started -
84:32 - 84:34to get the fear of God
and God revealed this -
84:35 - 84:38book to me and this
is my testimony about -
84:38 - 84:40it and I experienced
the freedom but before -
84:41 - 84:43I experienced a freedom
there was also some -
84:43 - 84:45days where I felt like
now I was condemned -
84:45 - 84:48‘now I’m going to
hell’ God, God cannot -
84:48 - 84:51forgive me anymore’ I
have sinned against -
84:50 - 84:54the Holy Spirit and I
feel so condemned but -
84:54 - 84:57it was from God because
he wanted to have -
84:59 - 85:02a deep repentance in
my heart, and when I -
85:02 - 85:04came in and experienced
the revelation of -
85:04 - 85:08the freedom I got free
and it was almost like -
85:08 - 85:11getting born again and
to be honest I was -
85:12 - 85:14confused thinking was
I really born again? -
85:14 - 85:16Was I really born before?
Because this was -
85:17 - 85:20completely new one more time.
There was a -
85:20 - 85:22freedom in Christ I
have never experienced -
85:22 - 85:25before but I went through
a journey like this I -
85:25 - 85:28was fighting, struggling
I was almost condemned -
85:29 - 85:31some days, thinking
‘I’m going to hell’ -
85:31 - 85:33and I was crying and
I was seeing God but -
85:34 - 85:37then the revelation came
and then the freedom -
85:37 - 85:40came and you also need
to come into that and -
85:41 - 85:44you need to go walk
from where you are and -
85:44 - 85:46take the next step you
need to take and I -
85:46 - 85:48don’t know what that is?
Maybe you need -
85:48 - 85:50fear of God in your
life we need that all -
85:51 - 85:53of us maybe you need
to repent get saved? -
85:53 - 85:55Maybe you need to have
a revelation of what -
85:55 - 85:59baptism is maybe you
need to just get your -
85:59 - 86:02eyes away off sin and look at Christ?
People -
86:06 - 86:08ask me but tom I’m
fighting with thing can -
86:08 - 86:10I go out and heal the
sick and preach the -
86:10 - 86:13gospel? You need to go
and do it because if -
86:13 - 86:17we get our eyes away
from sin and ourselves -
86:17 - 86:20and look on Jesus things
is going to be so -
86:20 - 86:23much better, if I look
at sin anymore you -
86:23 - 86:26will not think of that
you will not think -
86:26 - 86:28of that sin, sin, sin
if I say to myself I -
86:28 - 86:31will not think of that
‘I’m going to think -
86:31 - 86:33of it’ but when I
look at him I look at -
86:33 - 86:37what he has done I’m
not going to think -
86:37 - 86:40of sin so this message
is supposed to set -
86:41 - 86:44you free also it is in
the beginning is shaking -
86:44 - 86:47you a little so I hope
you understand that -
86:47 - 86:50I hope you understand
this freedom that Christ -
86:50 - 86:52came with he came to set
us free you are going -
86:53 - 86:56to learn the truth and
the truth is going -
86:56 - 86:59to set you free so you
are not going to be -
87:00 - 87:03a sinner anymore but
you are going to be a -
87:03 - 87:05saint you are going to
be holy you are going -
87:06 - 87:10to walk in freedom from
sin so this is what -
87:10 - 87:13I want to talk about
read my book next time -
87:14 - 87:17I’m back in two weeks,
so you have time to -
87:17 - 87:20read my book and I look
forward to continuing -
87:21 - 87:24and come with questions
so I can take that and -
87:24 - 87:28start with that in the
next teaching where -
87:28 - 87:31I am going to talk
about baptism in water -
87:31 - 87:35and freedom from sin
….yes…amazing love -
87:34 - 87:37what God is doing. I
