Bowing and Kneeling: full transcript and answers

▶ 0:00 And today we’re going to be dealing with this topic of bowing and kneeling and we’re going to go to Psalms 95 verse 6 read with me o come let us worship and bow down let us kneel before the Lord our maker. Hallelujah and again that does not need to be interpreted and what it says is what it says and I right now. in Isaiah 45 verse 21 who has declared this from ancient times okay he’s going to be talking about a subject and he’s going to be saying who has declared this way before.

▶ 0:55 Decades before centuries before millenniums before I the Lord and then he makes this emphatic statement there is no other God but me. there is no other God and I declared it from ancient times in Isaiah 46:9-10 I am God there is none other there it is again there is what none other there’s only one God folks one creator and that’s it we’re not in competition with any religion there’s only one real. Religion in the world and that is the religion of the Lord Jesus Christ can I hear an amen yeah. And I declared the end from the beginning God declared the end the conclusion at the beginning absolutely he did you go to Genesis 1 you will find the three parts of God there the spirit of God moved on what the face of the waters Revelation says that the many waters the waters are the many people’s multitudes of people God signifying that he was going to take his spirit and touch.

▶ 2:13 The multitudes in this earth at the beginning then he said let us make man in our image plural plural. He didn’t say I will make man in my image he said let us there is Jesus Christ Jesus Christ and the father right there at the beginning are you with me he declared it at the beginning and he told Adam and Eve that if you eat of this tree of knowledge of good and evil the day you eat of it you will die and lo and behold they ate of it and they didn’t die you ever think of why they didn’t die did God lie no God killed the first lamb. Signifying the end the coming of Christ see there’s two endings in God’s calendar one is the end of the Old Testament age and the promise of Christ and the beginning of the New Testament age the Revelation of Christ alright and so he declared that at the beginning now.

▶ 3:20 There’s no God in this earth is no religion in this earth that does that only God can declare things way before they happen and then God prophesied and said the seed of the woman not the seed of the man Christ will destroy Satan under his feet. Amen and when did he do that when Christ came at the end of the first age and Died on that cross he destroyed Satan’s power the Bible says amen so we have a God that declares things at the beginning what’s going to happen four thousand years later I’m a just God and I’m a savior God is just he’s always on the side of right and when you mess up he’s not there to step on you he’s there to save you got that no matter how bad you feel about yourself and how many times you’ve fallen he is there to pick you up he is the savior and he always does what’s right and again there is no God beside me you get the message there is no other God amen amen.

▶ 4:39 Don’t be afraid to say that there’s a lot of pressure on you to accept Muslims and everything in this earth there is no other religion and let me tell you something I did a lot of research and our founding fathers and I can find nowhere in the writings of our founding father with religious freedom meant all the religions of the world the witches and the animist and you know the Muslims on that they were strictly talking about the different denominations of the Christian church you dig it out no where did they talk about the other religions they were simply talking about the baptist as a right to believe the way they do the Catholics have a right to believe the way they do but they are all in that Bible arena and Jesus am I right am I right you need to you need to do some reading instead of believing everything you read on the facebook and look.

▶ 5:41 To me alright and be safe I’m the savior I’m just look to me and I’m going to deliver you. All you ends of the earth both believers and unbelievers he will what deliver us save us forgive us and that’s why you can come into God’s house and press into his presence with authority because you’re accepted in the beloved when you’re not worthy to be accepted and in that presence he can change you amen never in your down times run from God always run to him he forgives he delivers he cleanses can I hear an amen. for I am God there it is again there isn’t another now folks I think we got the message there’s no other God than him alleluia.

▶ 6:40 Well stop acting like there is you know when the liberals in the Democratic Party and all these people want to push Muslims and their freedom when Muslims will not allow a Christian church in their country they want to allow other religions in their country they are biased they are dictatorial and they’re out to destroy every other religion but there’s they do not have the right to freedom in America. you got to give freedom to have the right to have freedom [unclear] but they indoctrinate us they brainwash us into believing in this nonsense. Hallelujah. now as you remember Romans 10:13. How are they going to believe if no one is preached and how are they going to preach if they’re not sent like the lady shared today we got to go to Christ we gotta let him fashion us and then he sends us that’s the pattern she hit the pattern you can’t just go well I’m going to go with angeleyes I’m going to do this you better spend some time with your Jesus and let him equip you and let him make it then.

▶ 7:54 He’ll send you that’s what it says here and how are they going to call on him and if they haven’t heard how they going to believe if they haven’t heard upon the name of the Lord and be saved so this unconditional love has a condition doesn’t it yeah you got to hear the gospel believe the gospel respond to the gospel by calling on who Jesus say the name Jesus don’t be afraid to say Jesus I need help in fact get beyond that Jesus I need wisdom get specific I need understanding you know I need to buck up I need to be a man yes. and if I was a woman [unclear] I need to be a woman alleluia we are opposite we are different and that’s why when a man joins himself with a woman their whole they have things and he has things that when they put together they’re a powerful team [unclear] women are much more emotional than men men are designed to fight wars and stand against assaults and women break down.

▶ 9:11 But we need that part amen alleluia men need to learn how to cry. Women just keep crying. Yeah some of you men need to cry you hard-headed macho. You need to be broken before God and cry. Yeah. Man.

▶ 9:47 First John 2:1 talking to the church I would that you not sin but any of you if any of you do sin we have an advocate with the father a go-between a lawyer Jesus Christ and he is the propitiation the atonement the covering for our sins in the sins of the whole world church remember he died for you the believer and when you mess up it’s not the time to go out you know leave Christ and leave the church it’s the time to seek Christ amen he will forgive you he understands that he will build you up he will change you don’t run away and blame your failures and excuse yourself you just run to Christ that’s what he’s saying and you can bring any sinner to Christ any sinner and God will forgive them if they will call upon him now.

▶ 10:47 To me every knee will bow and every tongue shall take an oath what else remember you go to court I’ve been to court quite a few times more than anybody should be and. and you promise to tell the truth the whole truth and nothing but the truth. okay that’s the oath are you going to be [unclear] you’re going to be honest with me my word says that all have sinned do you agree with that and I hear yes all right the word my word says that the payment for your sin is death ruination here on earth and ruination and the eternal lake of fire do you agree with that. Have you sinned. Some of you didn’t say yes.

▶ 11:47 First John 1:8 if anyone says he has not sinned he is a liar and the truth is not in him now let’s try that again have you sinned now that’s good so you’re in God’s courtroom and the Devil says you deserve to be punished what would you say. So we are going to punish you and throw you into the lake of fire. [unclear] yeah you say no and then of course gonna go what do you mean no Jesus Christ died for me yes. You see we’re telling the truth if I confess my sins Jesus.

▶ 12:40 Christ is faithful and just to forgive me of my sins and cleanse me from all unrighteousness no no way I’m not going to their lake of fire and the judge Jesus sitting on the throne and says that’s truth. You feel it yes that’s true. Alleluia. Acts 2:38 repent turn from your sin and be baptized in water for the pardon of sin there’s people don’t believe in water baptism that is the most ridiculous hypocritical doctrine on earth Jesus himself was baptized and I right and who is our example now where do we get these stupid ideas but because we we want to dig into knowledge and dig into knowledge and dissect everything and then we come up with the birdbrain things water baptism is a part of salvation can I hear an amen you’re identifying with the death burial and resurrection of Christ and in that he puts to death the old man of sin and you come up a new man a new creature.

▶ 13:57 baptism is not an outward symbol of an inward work baptism is an inward work the old man is put to death the old man of sin are you with me now that’s true that’s the old you got to stick to the old when people deviate from the old stick to the old a man God’s word is true can I hear an amen and this is what he says so no matter how many times I fall down I can walk get back up. Hallelujah. Now. Romans 14:11 it is written every knee shall bow to me and every tongue shall confess to God so then each of us will give an account of himself to God what account what account are we given to God first Peter 4:3 we spent our past lifetime spent our past lifetime in doing the will of the Gentiles the non-believer what do unbelievers people don’t follow Jesus do walking in lewdness lust intoxication whether it’s alcohol drugs or marijuana or whatever local weed doesn’t matter.

▶ 15:16 That’s what they do. revelries celebrations festivals drinking parties and abominable idolatries abominable idolatries just covers a whole slew of things adultery is abomination to God fornications of abomination to God the Bible says incest is abomination to God the Bible says homosexual acts is abomination to God the Bible says lying is an abomination to God stealing is an abomination to God not respecting godly parents is an abomination to God are you that there’s a whole list of them over there the homosexuals want to want you to think that it’s only the homosexual is an abomination and how how how extreme the churches and our people of hate we are. That’s not the only thing as an abomination folks.

▶ 16:10 There’s a whole list of them and so he uses this statement and idolatry the worship of idols an abomination to God are you with me that’s what the Gentiles did unbelievers people that don’t follow God. They think it’s strange that you do not run with them and the same immoral behavior speaking evil of you see that was our past lifetime when we come to Christ will behave like that anymore we don’t get intoxicated we don’t run around with the outside our marriage with the opposite sex we don’t do these things we don’t lie to our wife or our husband are you with me powerful this is really powerful. What he’s telling you is the power of an encounter with Jesus Christ.

▶ 17:06 Turned your life around it’s nothing you can learn in a catechism class there’s nothing you can learn in a Bible seminary it is an experience with a real God that comes to you and he we are the temple of God he comes in you when you invite him and he changes your life the Bible is not a religious book it is a book of truth and power the truth sets you free from your stupid thinking from your ideas from your own doctrines from your immoral behavior the truth set you free and that’s the power of Christ he is the truth. Alleluia and that’s all the church has to offer people be honest with you we can offer them his word and we offer them and the people don’t accept it there’s nothing we can do first Timothy 4:12 be an example to the believers in word in conduct in love and love does no harm to his neighbor in spirit in faith and impurity in spirit were to be in the spirit and what.

▶ 18:12 now first Corinthians 6:9 is going to give us the same example okay as the previous verse no immoral sex which includes homosexuality sex with animals incest. Sex outside of marriage before marriage whatever it includes it all and he talks and he listed even pedophile or mentioned there in this verse okay it talks about the young men that the homosexuals were having sex with the boys uses the word boy are you there. Alleluia people say that homosexuality wasn’t addressed by Jesus yes it was when Jesus said all the law and the prophets you go back and it’s there and it’s in the New Testament can I hear an amen alleluia it’s wrong and he says idolaters thief the greedy the drunkards the revilers.

▶ 19:13 Those that attack you I mean listen people can just rip you apart with their mouth [unclear]. And extortioners people use force to get you to do what they want you to do will not inherit the kingdom of God and look at this look at this of such were some of you were what is. Past tense they were homosexuals they were pedophiles they were adulterers they were thief they were idolaters but they’re what now. Followers of Christ they don’t do that now a mess they’re an example of the power of Jesus Christ to make you a new person hallelujah and I don’t care how bad a sinner you think you are and I don’t care how bad a situation you think you’re in Jesus has the power to touch you what are your at and bring.

▶ 20:15 You through it can I hear an amen hallelujah. they will give an account to him who is ready to judge the living and the dead okay what account whether you lived the lewdness the sin or whether you gave it up and serve Christ you’re going to give an account God has highly exalted him and given him a name which is above every name and we were emphasized in the name of Jesus this morning that at the name of Jesus every knee bow it says in your Bible every one of them shall bow should is not there. He’s not suggesting. And one day every knee will bow all right those in heaven are going to bow and you go Revelations they are those on the earth can choose to bow and those under the earth the dead they’re going about after.

▶ 21:18 once to die and after death is the what judgment you think you’re going to stand before Jesus. yeah dude [unclear] man I didn’t think there was life after death dude no way when you see him you’re going down on your knees. Because he is power so you might as well start now can I hear an amen if you’re a Christian and not you’re not willing to publicly bow your knee before Christ [unclear] I’m basically talking to you because women don’t seem to have any problem. Alleluia. Now and every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord the superior power the total power to the glory of God the father now.

▶ 22:21 Proverbs 30 is. Written by another guy not Solomon and he asked this question he already knows the answer but he asked the question for your benefit. See we talked about bowing before the name of Jesus [unclear] several times the Bible says [unclear] you can bow like this which we will have to do because we don’t have any room here to get underneath except maybe the front row or you can bow by getting on your knees to acknowledge the superior power alright. So the writer of Proverbs says what is God’s name and what is his son’s name if you know. Do you know his name. And some of you are going to quickly say Jesus really.

▶ 23:15 You know the Jesus really means Joshua. It’s the greek the way the greeks wrote it it was. Interpreted into english Jesus all right. alleluia is Jesus still okay yeah is Joshua okay is any of his name’s okay yeah. Let’s look at the name Isaiah 7:14 Matthew 1:23 the first mention of the name a virgin shall bear a son the first mention of a name he shall call his name what Emmanuel which is interpreted God with us duh Jesus is God duh Emmanuel God with us duh and these people that say no Jesus isn’t God he’s just another prophet [unclear] he’s God.

▶ 24:23 Emmanuel God is with us in the flesh and they called him Jesus. La. Both the Old Testament and New Testament then Isaiah goes on to say in 9:6 to us a child is born see this virgin is going to have a child again a son is given the government shall be on his shoulders the increase of his government and peace there will be no end why our church is so afraid to talk about government government is the third-largest topic in the Bible well Jesus is the king of a kingdom that’s politics. And. Jesus said when the righteous are in authority in natural government the people rejoice don’t you think we need to be out there fighting for righteous leaders oh but Satan’s in charge of the nation’s and he can give it to everyone he’s in charge of the government he lied don’t you see the Bible says Satan is a liar and then there’s no truth in him he was lying when he said he had control of the nation’s where’s your head he lies to you and if you win and he tells you you got to give up and quit you’re just a phony Christian stop trying to pretend he’s lying to you.

▶ 25:46 Amen. There’s no truth in him. His name shall be called wonderful. Now if I say wonderful is Jesus shocked up there [unclear] who you talking to. Yeah as I say counselor all counselor I appreciate your counsel he goes up there going whoo hey what I’m Jesus what’s the matter with you. He knows who he is doesn’t he he knows he’s wonderful amazing he knows he’s the councillor he knows he’s the mighty God that connects the two one God everlasting father God all through the Bible is referred to as the father here Jesus’s name is the everlasting what father why because he is God in the flesh prince of peace.

▶ 26:42 That’s his name. Mark 1:1 the start of the gospel of what Jesus Christ the son of God. Now he’s not only Emmanuel and wonderful in the prince of peace in the everlasting father but he is Jesus Christ Christ the messiah Jesus the savior the messiah and he’s the son of God he had no earthly father. Amen see his name backs up the scriptures on who he is. And it’s important for you to know his name so you know what he can do for you alright. then he says in Acts 16:31 believe on the Lord Jesus Christ.. Now the Lord he is the all-powerful and the almighty one back there on the idea he is not just Christ Jesus the savior in Christ the messiah to come he is also the Lord though all power one of all other powers.

▶ 27:51 Acts 3:6 in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth rise up and walk why is it important that it’s Lord Jesus Christ of Nazareth because the Bible said he will be called a nazarene that’s one of his name. And. There was a lot of Joshua’s in the land during that time but this Joshua this Jesus this messiah is from Nazareth like the prophet said amen and he’s not does not have an earthly father like the prophet said hello there. John 19:21 you know they told Pilate to write that Jesus said I am the king of Jews not that he is the king of the Jews how many know Jesus said he was the king of the Jews how many know he was the king of the Jews and he still is the king of the Jews yes he is that’s his name.

▶ 28:52 Revelation 19:13 his name is called the what Word of God. Whoa in the beginning was the word and the word was with God and the word was God. How can you be with God and be God. Interesting uh. Because he expresses himself in three dynamic way the father the son and the Holy Ghost Jesus is God in the flesh and when Stephen had heaven opened who did he see Jesus standing at the right hand of the father why Jesus is fleshly body rose from the grave and ascended up into heaven just like we’re going to be united back with our fleshly body you understand.

▶ 29:48 And so he saw two people there didn’t he he saw two manifestation God in the flesh and God on the throne God’s glory God the father at his baptism all three are there. Jesus God in the flesh and then the father spoke from heaven. This is my beloved son hear ye him. Say Jesus God in the flesh God in heaven and then here comes a dove not a real dove spirit spiritual dove floating down from heaven and lighting on Jesus the Holy Spirit there you have God the father God the son Jesus and God Holy Spirit yeah listen I am a father I am a son and I’m a husband and I am not three people.

▶ 30:52 Are you looking at me like that for I don’t have intimacy with my children have intimacy as a husband with his wife I don’t as the son tell my dad this is how it’s done I. Don’t raise my dad he raises me disciplines me and as a son I’m to obey and respect him but I’m still one person aren’t I. Wasn’t what’s so difficult about that he’s supernatural he’s God does the Bible say he’s one God yeah can he express himself anywhere he wants yeah supernatural man get off your hobbyhorse get out of knowledge and get into the spirit that was good get out of looking for knowledge and [unclear] and get into the spirit and let him reveal himself to you like I heard in a testimony that’s the key he comes and reveals himself to you and he reveals the word amen.

▶ 32:05 Hallelujah the word of God so when I say Lord I appreciate your word who am I I’m appreciating who Jesus. Revelation 19:16 on his thigh was a name written king of kings and Lord of lords he’s not only king of the Jews he’s king of every nation every ethnic group every [unclear] race and culture on earth isn’t he yes and then the last one is Hebrews 7:2 the king of righteousness whoo. Now. Proverbs 14:19 and I know you understand this verse I just know you do I don’t know why I’m bringing it up today. But this is what this verse says the evil bow before the good is.

▶ 32:58 That. Not in everyday experience is it it’s truth because God said it. But we’re in the age of the Gentiles and the little horn is creating a lot of havoc. Don’t know if you would know about the little horn okay. Talks evil of God’s people persecute the gods people yeah all right. But anyway the evil bow before the good now if I say this last week’s message and the gospel of Jesus the gospel of good things. Who’s good Jesus.

▶ 33:50 Alright and we have our feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace so does the evil bow before the gospel of Christ the gospel of peace the gospel of good [unclear] not before us we’re all sinners. But they will bow before the gospel that we follow and we share. Now it makes sense. And the wicked will bow at the gates of the righteous why does he say gates in the Bible says Jesus is the gate he’s the door and. here we find in the old testament all the time gates gates gates gates now if you remember the previous messages you should know what the gates are.

▶ 34:51 There’s three of them. And of course Jesus is the righteous and people bowed to him and I trust you bow to Jesus I. Would used to go to Mexico as a young Christian a lot to get familiar with the foreign mission I could drive down there spend the weekend and come back and I would get into a plaza they have these plazas and the villages and in towns and I could get their friend my guitar a little airplane flying around or whatever next thing I know I had over a hundred people just coming what what the americano doing let’s see nothing what’s going on then I could preach the gospel to them you see well one trip I got invited to speak at the prison I said you bet I’ll go and so I took my interpreter with me and we took some instruments and we went into that prison and they made it very clear we’re going to take you out in the courtyard and there you can do anything you want free to seeing whatever but you are responsible for what happens to you they made it very clear that we’re going to let you want to go out there but if that’s your own risk how many just quit.

▶ 36:18 So here we go I go out there man and let me tell you you can have a lot of courage until all of a sudden you’re looking at these tattooed evil guys I mean man [unclear]. Well and they are roaming freely. That’s where the peace of God comes in no problem are you there so you guys haven’t experienced a lot of these things because you never ventured out to anything. Man we set up and we start singing of course I use a salvation songs that we had that time and then we of course always wound up with a worship song to bring people to Christ and bring that presence that presence is the key and it did Christ came I preached a simple message and I still remember the message God gave it to me on the way in he told me what to speak all right and it came out of Genesis.

▶ 37:27 That we have dominion over all the earth and I went in [unclear] these guys you know God created you to have dominion. Dominion over alcohol dominion over the opium plant these plants don’t have to control your life dominion over the vine the wine plant the grape plant that the alcohol you can have dominion over sin and sexual immorality and [unclear] you can take dominion God created you to be in control to be a leader and and rule over the earth. Now I still remember that was a powerful method I used it quite a bit after that [unclear]. And then I gave the invitation how many you men want to come and let Christ make you one that can live in this world in dominion and rulership over sin and over these things a bunch of them came down.

▶ 38:27 All right and. every one of them knelt down. They weren’t kneeling at my feet they were kneeling at what the word you see our feet are shod with the preparation of the gospel they were kneeling at the word they were kneeling at Jesus and these. Mean hombres were weeping and touching God and the bad guys were still locked up and when I’m done they’re calling I come up here [unclear] the Americano come up here.. So I’m going through this prison and they’re taking me into the depths of and.

▶ 39:20 [unclear] open up into this big room and I told you this before there’s a cell here and then their cells all around it is one big cell here and there’s a woman in it with a baby. And I asked what is that they told me and woman’s in here she’s used by the convicts as a reward and she had a baby got pregnant had a baby in here and a raising the baby in here now let me ask you something you’re going to go over and talk apologetics with this woman. You’re going to go and talk about your denominational doctrine no. You’d better know everything you can about Jesus because that’s the only thing can change this woman’s life. And most of us would not know what to say [unclear].

▶ 40:22 [unclear] they don’t need you [unclear] they need Jesus to come and set him free. Are you there. Now what are you going to say to these criminals ignorant people and all this is Matthew Henry commentary going to do any good no. The only thing that’s going to do good it’s a message of the cross and you people to get wrapped up in all these atheists arguments about the problems in the Bible and they yeah the errors in the Bible you’re just wasting your time get them to Jesus Jesus can meet with them Jesus can change them or they can reject him can I hear an amen and we think we’re doing so much bye all we’re good I got to give these people answer they need one answer the wages of sin is death all have sinned Jesus can forgive you Jesus can change you do you want it and if they don’t who cares where Cain came from and who cares if the rooster crows twice or three times you can’t argue that.

▶ 41:42 One gospel says twice the other gospel says three times somebody messed up. Does that change the power of God’s word no good grief. one of the kings in the old testament is said to be eight years old in one account and 18 in another and another account okay you’re going to go to a big long dialogue [unclear] take them to Jesus take them to the cross. Can I hear an amen. Hallelujah. The three gates in closing. Remember one two three who’s that every one of them Jesus he’s the gate he’s the door three gates you go into the first gate the courtyard where your cleanse from your sin by his sacrifice water baptism at the laver and the washing of the word the hands and the feet people say [unclear] washing of the hands and the feet yes hands nailed feet nailed.

▶ 43:01 And a boy who’s. The word Jesus he washes our daily life by his blood just like he washes us at the beginning when we come to him can I hear an amen now we want to go into the holy place guess who’s that Jesus who are you going to bow to to get in you better bow to get in. Where the seven spirits are do you know what the seven spirits are. Wisdom understanding. Council. spirit of might knowledge fear of the Lord of the Lord yes and somebody knows their Bible.

▶ 43:54 That’s the fullness of the Holy Spirit and it’s over in Revelations by the way it’s not just one place it over in Revelation same thing the seven lamps are the seven spirits of God. Are you there do we need to be in contact with the spirit can he give us wisdom can he give us understanding can he give us knowledge can he give us strength yes this is supernatural strength ah. So we need to get into this area and the body and the blood of Christ is at the communion table his body is his church do we need to go to church absolutely you’re not being an example when you don’t go to church. you need to be there to pray like [unclear]

▶ 44:45 [unclear] worship to bring his presence so God can touch someone or just a friend invited over to your house to meet and speak with Jesus the third curtain where he meets with us and speaks to us here’s the protocol for all gates you enter by the blood of Christ okay it’s his sacrifice that allows you to go in you believe in him dying on the cross for you and your sins that’s your ticket in and the protocol the method is enter his gates with thanksgiving enter his courts with praise and bless his name praise worship is the protocol that’s why. Worship service in a church is so important. It brings people into these gates where they can meet with God and that makes all the difference in the way I don’t care how bad they are they can meet with God.
