▶ 30:52 And we can nourish it and and continue when we leave from here Lord Jesus to just spread your love and your word in Jesus Christ’s name amen. Amen. Christ the same yesterday today and forever is that verse true we have found scriptural evidence that there was a beginning before Genesis 1 beginning when God created the heavens and the earth we found in the scriptures that Jesus said I am the beginning and I am the end I am the first and I am the last. All these are found in Revelations these things says the amen the faithful and true witness the beginning of the creation of God Jesus was the beginning his birth foretold his death foretold for the sins of the world at the very beginning of creation.

▶ 32:04 In Colossians chapter 1 he says Christ is the head of the body the church who is the beginning. Again in Revelations the lamb was slain from the foundation of the world. Also in Matthew 13 I shall declare things hidden before the foundation of the world. And again in first Peter 1:18 you were redeemed with the precious blood of Christ a lamb without blemish without spot who truly was predetermined before the foundation of the world before the foundation before the creation of the world he was predetermined to come and die for our sins but he was made plain made manifest in these last times to us he God chose us in him Christ.

▶ 33:16 Before the foundation of the world Ephesians 1:4. And in John 17:24 Jesus was praying to the father and said father you loved me before the foundation of the world so there was a beginning. Before the Genesis 1 beginning and we have scriptural solid scriptural evidence of that also. We found solid scriptural evidence that Christ was God in the flesh John 1:1 in the beginning was the word the word was with God and the word was God all things were created by him and without him was nothing made that was made so Christ created everything Christ was God and Christ is the word.

▶ 34:16 Verse 14 the word God Christ was made flesh and dwelt among us and we beheld his glory as the only begotten of the father the only one that was conceived by the father was the word and was God and then in verse 17 it names him grace and truth came by Jesus Christ the word God amen the only begotten son of God he’s the only begotten son of God he is the word and he is God no man has seen God at any time the only begotten son which is in the bosom of the father ask God what that means. Okay the only begotten son which is in the bosom of the father he has declared him John 20 put your hand in my side thomas stop doubting and believe Jesus said thomas said back to Jesus my Lord and my what God my Lord thomas knew he was God in ii Peter 1:1 Peter knew he was God our Lord our God and savior Jesus Christ who is our savior Jesus Christ who is our God.

▶ 35:45 Jesus Christ Acts 20:28 the shepherds of the church of God the apostle said which he God has bought with his own blood who bought the church with his own blood God who died on the cross and shed his blood Christ who is Christ God. First John 5:20 we know the son of God has come he is the true God and he is eternal life. He who has seen me Jesus said has seen the father I and my father are one Jesus said the Jews trying to stone him replied you being a man made yourself God the Jews knew when he said.

▶ 36:38 I and my father are one the Jews knew he was saying he was God and that made them mad. And when you say Jesus is God today it makes a lot of people mad that want to keep him the only the son of God. I am in the father and the father is in me and the father who dwells in me this fleshly body does the works you shall call his name Emmanuel God with us who is with us God. Who was it called Emmanuel Jesus Jesus is God no man is ascended to heaven Enoch and Elijah did ascend to heaven but not conceived by God and birthed by a virgin there’s a difference.

▶ 37:33 As Jesus he that came down from heaven Christ was alive before he came to earth and was born of a virgin he was in heaven and he came down from heaven. So he existed before he was conceived by God and birthed by a virgin but the son of man the son of God Jesus Christ which is in heaven now Jesus was on earth when he said this statement. And he said I am in heaven. Well who was in heaven when he made this statement. God the father Jesus is saying I am also God the father hallelujah. Christ was on earth when he said this indicating he was in heaven at the same time.

▶ 38:27 As God the father so scriptural evidence that Christ is the same yesterday today and forever is that verse true in Hebrews 13:8 we’ll start with today when it was written. Okay the New Testament says Jesus was God the son of God the lamb of God the son of man the prophet the king and the priest to come he is the savior he is the creator he is the light he is the truth he is eternal life he is a spirit and he is love that’s what.

▶ 39:07 Was brought out that’s what was made clear plainly about Christ in the New Testament when Hebrews 13:8 was written Christ the same yesterday today and forever so we go back to yesterday we go back to Genesis and to get the Revelation of this you have to read the New Testament that’s where it was revealed in in Titus 1:2 it says eternal life which God that cannot lie promised before the world began before he ever created man he promised eternal life Christ was the same before Genesis 1:1 as we showed you the lamb Revelation 13:8 slain from the foundation of the world the God’s whole plan was create man and get him to love him and show it by obeying him and if they fail to obey he would die in their place.

▶ 40:07 And bring him back to himself that’s the whole plan Christ said in Matthew 13:35 I will speak of things kept secret from the foundation of the world. So Christ is the same yesterday today is he. The mystery in Romans 16:25 Christ the mystery which is kept secret since the world began but now made manifest by the scriptures of the prophets from Adam the prophet of God all the way to Malachi the prophet of God from Genesis to Malachi the prophet spoke of Christ before. And after the creation of the world. He truly was the God of today in Hebrews 13:8 and the God of yesterday.

▶ 41:07 And he’s the God of the future in Acts 2:39 repent and be converted every one of you be baptized in every one of you in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ for the remission of sins for the promises to you to your children and to all that are far off is he the God of the future is it the same in the future he has not changed before the beginning he has not changed. Hallelujah in Revelation 7:9-14 a great innumerable multitude of all nations stand before the lamb with the robes washed white in the blood of the lamb the lamb that was slain before the foundation of the world the lamb that was slain by all the prophets the lamb that was slain in the New Testament died on the cross and rose again there is an innumerable multitude of people in heaven washed by the blood of the lamb that was promised before the world began hallelujah isn’t that almighty supernatural God yes give God a clap offering only he could write a book like this.

▶ 42:23 So let’s look at the message we showed you last week God came and his presence came to these people and we told you. When his presence came he had a message and what was the message the message is basically the same because Christ is the same yesterday today and forever when he comes to speak to his people in the Old Testament watch how consistent the message is okay you’re gonna see he comes to bless us you’re gonna see that he comes to warn us to do what’s right and follow his word you’re also going to see that he corrects us verbally and if he has to he’ll correct us by other ways. Why because he wants to save us from our error our sins our violation and he wants to restore us back into a relationship with him and give us and maintain eternal life in us this is the basic message we find it in Adam and Eve God comes to admin even he said be fruitful multiply and fill the earth and let me tell you folks he wasn’t just suggesting that.

▶ 43:33 That wasn’t just a suggestion that is a law God created Adam Eve to be fruitful and multiply and he created the sexual organs to make sure that was done. Are you there. Men and women have an attraction to each other from the sexual organs that God gave them and they’re going to replenish the earth come what or whatever it’s going to happen all right so don’t let people get you all extreme about sex and noticing some handsome man or some handsome girl woman or a good-looking woman or any you know that’s a normal thing he wants you to be merry he wants you to have sexual relationships he wants you to have children and he wants to bless you with food clothing and shelter to provide for those children provide for that family he wants.

▶ 44:33 You healthy. He wants. To bless. You but God also warned. Adam and Eve I think I hit the wrong button here. He told Adam and Eve eat the correct tree the tree of life and you will live forever if you eat the wrong tree the tree of knowledge of good and evil you will die and you will die a second death. Separation from God so what do they do they ate of the tree of knowledge and good and evil disobeyed God what did God do just like the message said he came and verbally corrected them and he also brought physical correction Adam had to work the ground now.

▶ 45:39 In hard labor to produce and provide for his family and Eve had to birth children in pain. They did the correction he restored them he killed the first animal clothed them with the skin signifying and prophesying to them that the seed of the woman would come to destroy Satan he would come to die for them and so Adam and Eve believed that that lamb that God slew to clothe them with. Took their place and they were restored back to God hallelujah and they had eternal life and you never read in the Bible about Adam and Eve violating God’s word again all right. They were an example to all the others remember they lived all the way to lamech just before Noah Adam and Eve were there to tell the people how God restored them after they disobeyed amen.

▶ 46:48 They were an example and they had the message then we go to Noah Noah and mankind. God comes to Noah here and his first message is I will destroy mankind okay his first message is a warning and a correction. But he says I’ll save the just Noah you are a just man you are a perfect man a complete man a good man and I’m going to find grace for you okay I’m going to favor you I’m going to be kind to you and I’ll save anyone that turns and does what is just Noah you’ve got to preach to these people. You see God warned Adam and Eve but Noah was given the responsibility to warn mankind and so Noah preached righteousness the Bible says and he built an ark and he entered that ark now for those of you are stuck on this thing I’m saved by grace faith alone Noah only found grace because he was a just man he was doing what was right.

▶ 48:09 Are you there he was doing good works that a lot of Christians out there want to say you don’t need to do good works and we’re not saved by works Noah was saved by works works of righteousness a just man can I hear an amen and he found grace and he found favor because of that but he had to preach the word and he had to build the ark and he had to enter it. If he would have done everything and not have entered the ark he would have died in the flood like the rest full come on hallelujah. So all the unjust were drowned in the flood and God saved eight people who listened to joe uh Noah’s preaching eight people including himself.

▶ 49:08 And then after the flood was over and they came out of the ark what did God say be fruitful and multiply Noah I want to bless mankind I want them to have marriage I want them to have sexual relationships I want them to have children I want them to be healthy I want them to be able to provide for their family I want to bless them. So we go to Abraham David job all these other guys all right. If Christ is the same yesterday today and forever and basically we’re going to have the same message. And we do God comes to Abraham and he appears to Abraham and God appears in different ways and he says to Abraham I’m going to multiply and I’m going to bless you see God wants us to have a wife and a husband he wants us to have children he wants us to bless our family with food clothing and shelter he wants us to be healthy that is God that’s what God wants to do to you folks he wants to bless your life.

▶ 50:18 But we got to obey got to do what’s right so God you know Abraham all of these guys you know made a mistake job didn’t make a mistake until he was in his testing time and blamed God for his problem. That’s where he made his mistake he didn’t make one before that but God came to Abraham Abraham. Told the king of a pagan king that Sarah was his sister that pagan king took Sarah into his household as his wife God comes down to the pagan king and said you better not touch that lady. And God came through the pagan king to Abraham and said you made the wrong decision abe putting your wife in this situation was wrong God corrected Abraham he corrected the king and he saved for Sarah who was caught in between the myths sometimes it doesn’t pay to be a beautiful woman okay.

▶ 51:33 And that’s what he did with David when David messed up he corrected David verbally and he corrected David with action and he saved them and he restored them same thing as Adam and Eve same thing with Noah and mankind but he tells Abraham I’m going to make your seed a blessing. To turn all the unjust nations all the unjust people from their sin. And your seed is going to be uncountable you won’t be able to count them that is a tremendous promise.

▶ 52:16 So Israel did not reach the nations with the message that they were supposed to take to the nation they did not go out and preach to the nation and so Jesus said when he came the kingdom is taken from them and given to a people that what bring forth the fruit hallelujah so we need to bring forth the fruit that brings us to the New Testament the message of a supernatural God yesterday today and forever isn’t that beautiful clear evidence clear proof that he is the same yesterday today and forever we’re going to go to acts chapter 3 verses 19 through 26 I can’t put all the verses on there it’s just boring so I’ll just quote some of them he says repent and be converted every one of you that your sins be blotted out and I will send times of refreshing.

▶ 53:29 Until Christ comes who will be retained in the heavens until the restoration of all things. That’s why he can’t come today there hasn’t been a restoration of all things spoken by the prophets since the world began all right. And he says. All who will not hear that prophet Jesus God said I’m going to send a prophet that was Jesus shall be destroyed okay that’s the warning. All the prophets from Samuel told of these days the New Testament days. About Christ being God and dying for our sins and all that he says you are the children of the prophets and the covenant God made saying in thy seed shall all nations be blessed now remember when the seed is used singular who is it Christ when the seed is plural who is it his followers.

▶ 54:43 All right and so in thy seed all the nations shall be blessed so Christ the seed. Of Eve died on that cross to bring everybody back to themselves his followers are the seeds with the message to bless the nations and how are they to bless them. Unto you first God raised up his son Jesus and sent him to what bless you not only to bless you with food clothing and children of family and kids and health and all that but here he says I sent Christ to bless you and turning away every one of you from his iniquities.

▶ 55:37 See it isn’t joining a church or getting a baptism or certificate or anything like that it’s us individually allowing God to come in us and turn us from our own ways from evil ways from sinful ways to his ways hallelujah it’s a supernatural. God working in us by his supernatural. Power. Too many people try to serve God on their own mental capacity or strength when God wants to come and touch them meet with them and empower them to turn them to him. To know him hallelujah and that’s the message from before that God created the world Christ is truly what the same yesterday today and forever.

▶ 56:38 So in Revelations chapter 7 we see that the promise to Abraham of an innumerable company of people innumerable company of people can’t can’t number them are washed in the lamb’s blood out of all nations all kindreds all tribes and all tongues what God said before the beginning what God said to Adam and Eve what God said to Noah what God said to Abraham what God said to job what God said to David and all the prophets and what God spoke through Jesus Christ. In Revelation is going to come to pass there’s going to be a multitude in heaven. That cannot be numbered why because he is a supernatural God working in supernatural ways to fulfill his word one of the proofs is mankind filled the earth that wasn’t a suggestion God said that’s what you got to do and he had a design that got it done hallelujah and all the rest of his stuff will come to pass as the musicians come I’d like to spend just a few minutes.

▶ 58:04 Directing our worship and our praise unto him and just letting him come I don’t care who you are Paul was the chiefest of sinners so please do not think or say you are too worse of a sinner. God saved the chiefest of sinner the one who blasphemed the Holy Ghost and did all kinds of bad things killed innocent people as an example that he will save and accept you and he wants to come and meet with you and we’re going to sing this simple song that anybody can sing you don’t have to memorize anything just hallelujah hallelujah and I love Jesus and if you want Jesus to come.

▶ 58:57 And turn you and keep turning you turn you from sins and keep turning it stand. With me and let’s. Just focus. On him and sing to him. Oh. Hallelujah.
