- 1 John 3:20.
00:00:23.103 --> 00:00:25.338
- 1 John 3:20.For if our heart condemns us,
00:00:25.338 --> 00:00:29.109
For if our heart condemns us,God is greater than our heart
00:00:29.109 --> 00:00:32.145
God is greater than our heartand knows all things.
00:00:32.145 --> 00:00:36.783
and knows all things.Beloved, if our heart does
00:00:36.783 --> 00:00:38.118
Beloved, if our heart doesnot condemn us,
00:00:38.118 --> 00:00:40.019
not condemn us,we have confidence toward God.
00:00:40.019 --> 00:00:41.521
we have confidence toward God.And whatever we ask we receive
00:00:41.521 --> 00:00:43.389
And whatever we ask we receiveof Him because we keep
00:00:43.389 --> 00:00:44.324
of Him because we keepHis commandments
00:00:44.324 --> 00:00:45.325
His commandmentsand do those things that are
00:00:45.325 --> 00:00:46.826
and do those things that arepleasing in His sight.
00:00:46.826 --> 00:00:48.461
pleasing in His sight.That's important.
00:00:48.461 --> 00:00:49.696
That's important.OK, so what is pleasing
00:00:49.696 --> 00:00:50.630
OK, so what is pleasingin His sight?
00:00:50.630 --> 00:00:51.931
in His sight?What is His commandment?
00:00:51.931 --> 00:00:55.001
What is His commandment?And this is His commandment.
00:00:55.001 --> 00:00:56.369
And this is His commandment.That we should believe
00:00:56.369 --> 00:00:59.105
That we should believeon the name of His Son
00:00:59.105 --> 00:01:02.108
on the name of His SonJesus Christ and love one
00:01:02.108 --> 00:01:05.845
I want you to focus in
00:01:11.818 --> 00:01:13.686
I want you to focus infor just a moment on verse 20.
00:01:13.686 --> 00:01:16.322
for just a moment on verse 20.For if our heart condemns us,
00:01:16.322 --> 00:01:19.159
For if our heart condemns us,God is greater than our heart,
00:01:19.159 --> 00:01:20.860
God is greater than our heart,and He knows all things.
00:01:20.860 --> 00:01:21.794
and He knows all things.I wanna preach on
00:01:21.794 --> 00:01:26.466
I wanna preach onguilt-free living.
00:01:26.466 --> 00:01:29.536
guilt-free living.Guilt, condemnation,
00:01:29.536 --> 00:01:32.071
Guilt, condemnation,a sense of failure will gnaw
00:01:32.071 --> 00:01:36.442
a sense of failure will gnawat you if you allow it.
00:01:36.442 --> 00:01:39.245
at you if you allow it.But in Jeremiah 17:9,
00:01:39.245 --> 00:01:41.581
But in Jeremiah 17:9,the Bible said that your heart
00:01:41.581 --> 00:01:44.450
the Bible said that your heartis deceitfully wicked,
00:01:44.450 --> 00:01:47.954
is deceitfully wicked,and you are not to believe
00:01:47.954 --> 00:01:51.191
and you are not to believethe report your heart constantly
00:01:51.191 --> 00:01:54.961
the report your heart constantlytells you about your
00:01:54.961 --> 00:01:57.430
tells you about yourrelationship with God.
00:01:57.430 --> 00:01:59.232
relationship with God.Your heart can only register
00:01:59.232 --> 00:02:01.401
Your heart can only registerright or wrong.
00:02:01.401 --> 00:02:02.535
right or wrong.Your heart knows when you
00:02:02.535 --> 00:02:04.037
Your heart knows when youdo right and you do wrong,
00:02:04.037 --> 00:02:05.238
do right and you do wrong,and you get an emotion
00:02:05.238 --> 00:02:07.507
and you get an emotionand a feeling about it.
00:02:07.507 --> 00:02:10.176
and a feeling about it.And that's good.
00:02:10.176 --> 00:02:12.278
And that's good.But your heart is not the final
00:02:12.278 --> 00:02:16.015
But your heart is not the finalauthority over your life.
00:02:16.015 --> 00:02:17.083
authority over your life.It can only register
00:02:17.083 --> 00:02:17.984
It can only registerright or wrong.
00:02:17.984 --> 00:02:19.519
right or wrong.It can only register
00:02:19.519 --> 00:02:20.486
It can only registeryou've been good
00:02:20.486 --> 00:02:23.189
you've been goodor you've been bad.
00:02:23.189 --> 00:02:24.757
or you've been bad.But I know a higher court,
00:02:24.757 --> 00:02:27.360
But I know a higher court,according to this text.
00:02:27.360 --> 00:02:28.494
according to this text.And it said if our heart
00:02:28.494 --> 00:02:31.264
And it said if our heartcondemns us, there is one who
00:02:31.264 --> 00:02:34.033
condemns us, there is one whois greater than our heart,
00:02:34.033 --> 00:02:36.569
is greater than our heart,and He knows all things.
00:02:36.569 --> 00:02:38.571
and He knows all things.He knows that you didn't
00:02:38.571 --> 00:02:39.906
He knows that you didn'tmeant it.
00:02:39.906 --> 00:02:41.441
meant it.He knows that you still
00:02:41.441 --> 00:02:42.542
He knows that you stilllove Him.
00:02:42.542 --> 00:02:44.043
love Him.He knows that in your
00:02:44.043 --> 00:02:45.345
He knows that in yourheart of hearts,
00:02:45.345 --> 00:02:47.313
heart of hearts,you wanna be like Him.
00:02:47.313 --> 00:02:48.414
you wanna be like Him.He knows that in a moment
00:02:48.414 --> 00:02:49.616
He knows that in a momentof weakness,
00:02:49.616 --> 00:02:51.818
of weakness,that's not who you really are,
00:02:51.818 --> 00:02:52.885
that's not who you really are,and that's not what
00:02:52.885 --> 00:02:55.388
and that's not whatyou're really about.
00:02:55.388 --> 00:02:56.789
you're really about.And if your own heart
00:02:56.789 --> 00:02:59.559
And if your own heartcondemns you, there is one
00:02:59.559 --> 00:03:03.196
condemns you, there is onewho is greater than your heart,
00:03:03.196 --> 00:03:05.865
who is greater than your heart,and He knows all things.
00:03:05.865 --> 00:03:07.667
and He knows all things.He doesn't just see the deed.
00:03:07.667 --> 00:03:08.935
He doesn't just see the deed.He knows the intent
00:03:08.935 --> 00:03:10.703
And it's a powerful thing
00:03:12.939 --> 00:03:15.441
And it's a powerful thingwhen you understand that
00:03:15.441 --> 00:03:17.410
when you understand thatthe scripture I just read
00:03:17.410 --> 00:03:19.579
the scripture I just read- I used to read it and think,
00:03:19.579 --> 00:03:22.348
- I used to read it and think,you know, if our heart
00:03:22.348 --> 00:03:23.616
you know, if our heartcondemns us,
00:03:23.616 --> 00:03:24.851
condemns us,God is even greater
00:03:24.851 --> 00:03:25.818
God is even greaterthan our heart.
00:03:25.818 --> 00:03:27.220
than our heart.His standard is even higher
00:03:27.220 --> 00:03:28.621
His standard is even higherthan our heart,
00:03:28.621 --> 00:03:30.456
than our heart,and He knows all things.
00:03:30.456 --> 00:03:32.091
and He knows all things.And that's not what that
00:03:32.091 --> 00:03:34.661
And that's not what thatverse means.
00:03:34.661 --> 00:03:35.762
verse means.This is not a verse
00:03:35.762 --> 00:03:38.164
This is not a verseof condemnation.
00:03:38.164 --> 00:03:40.033
of condemnation.This is a verse
00:03:40.033 --> 00:03:42.168
This is a verseof encouragement.
00:03:42.168 --> 00:03:44.370
of encouragement.That even if your own heart
00:03:44.370 --> 00:03:46.372
That even if your own heartis registering to you
00:03:46.372 --> 00:03:48.908
is registering to youthat you have done wrong,
00:03:48.908 --> 00:03:50.543
that you have done wrong,God, who saved you
00:03:50.543 --> 00:03:53.012
God, who saved youwhen you were a sinner,
00:03:53.012 --> 00:03:54.647
when you were a sinner,still loves you when
00:03:54.647 --> 00:03:56.649
still loves you whenyou're a son or a daughter
00:03:56.649 --> 00:03:59.786
you're a son or a daughterthat has done wrong.
00:03:59.786 --> 00:04:00.987
that has done wrong.And He says this is not
00:04:00.987 --> 00:04:03.222
And He says this is notsome loose message where
00:04:03.222 --> 00:04:05.058
some loose message whereyou live wild and crazy.
00:04:05.058 --> 00:04:06.459
you live wild and crazy.That's not what I'm preaching.
00:04:06.459 --> 00:04:08.261
That's not what I'm preaching.But I am preaching the gospel
00:04:08.261 --> 00:04:10.730
But I am preaching the gospelof Jesus Christ.
00:04:10.730 --> 00:04:12.865
of Jesus Christ.And if your heart condemns you,
00:04:12.865 --> 00:04:15.735
And if your heart condemns you,God is greater than that voice
00:04:15.735 --> 00:04:16.736
God is greater than that voiceand that heart
00:04:16.736 --> 00:04:17.804
and that heartthat condemns you,
00:04:17.804 --> 00:04:19.238
that condemns you,and He knows all things.
00:04:19.238 --> 00:04:21.074
and He knows all things.He knows you
00:04:21.074 --> 00:04:26.446
He knows youwant to please Him ultimately.
00:04:26.446 --> 00:04:29.148
want to please Him ultimately.Your heart says bad.
00:04:29.148 --> 00:04:31.551
Your heart says bad.Your heart says hypocrite.
00:04:31.551 --> 00:04:33.920
Your heart says hypocrite.Your heart says failure.
00:04:33.920 --> 00:04:36.422
Your heart says failure.Your heart says quit.
00:04:36.422 --> 00:04:37.690
Your heart says quit.But He who knows all
00:04:37.690 --> 00:04:41.027
But He who knows allthings says hold on.
00:04:41.027 --> 00:04:42.795
things says hold on.Grace is coming.
00:04:42.795 --> 00:04:45.732
Grace is coming.Forgiveness is coming.
00:04:45.732 --> 00:04:48.368
Forgiveness is coming.Romans 5:8 said God commended
00:04:48.368 --> 00:04:50.403
Romans 5:8 said God commendedHis love to us that while
00:04:50.403 --> 00:04:52.739
His love to us that whilewe were yet sinners,
00:04:52.739 --> 00:04:56.075
we were yet sinners,Christ died for us.
00:04:56.075 --> 00:04:57.210
Christ died for us.He loved us
00:04:57.210 --> 00:04:58.644
He loved uswhen we were sinners.
00:04:58.644 --> 00:05:01.214
when we were sinners.How much does He love us now
00:05:01.214 --> 00:05:02.482
How much does He love us nowthat we are sons
00:05:02.482 --> 00:05:04.450
that we are sonsand daughters of Christ?
00:05:04.450 --> 00:05:06.986
and daughters of Christ?And if our heart condemns us,
00:05:06.986 --> 00:05:08.321
And if our heart condemns us,we need to understand
00:05:08.321 --> 00:05:10.056
we need to understandthat He's greater.
00:05:10.056 --> 00:05:11.891
that He's greater.That His voice is greater.
00:05:11.891 --> 00:05:13.493
That His voice is greater.His cross is greater.
00:05:13.493 --> 00:05:15.461
His cross is greater.And here's the important thing.
00:05:15.461 --> 00:05:19.098
And here's the important thing.In 1 John 3:21,
00:05:19.098 --> 00:05:20.833
In 1 John 3:21,He then goes on and says for
00:05:20.833 --> 00:05:22.735
He then goes on and says forif our hearts condemn us not
00:05:22.735 --> 00:05:23.936
if our hearts condemn us not- notice this word -
00:05:23.936 --> 00:05:24.971
- notice this word -then we have confidence
00:05:24.971 --> 00:05:26.806
then we have confidencetoward God.
00:05:26.806 --> 00:05:28.541
toward God.He's really correcting us,
00:05:28.541 --> 00:05:30.543
He's really correcting us,and He's saying I don't
00:05:30.543 --> 00:05:33.479
and He's saying I don'twant you to just approach me
00:05:33.479 --> 00:05:34.547
want you to just approach mewhen you're feeling
00:05:34.547 --> 00:05:35.381
when you're feelinglike you're having
00:05:35.381 --> 00:05:38.251
like you're havingyour best days.
00:05:38.251 --> 00:05:40.019
your best days.Because there's a tendency
00:05:40.019 --> 00:05:42.889
Because there's a tendencyin our kind of human love
00:05:42.889 --> 00:05:45.792
in our kind of human loveto base it upon performance.
00:05:45.792 --> 00:05:48.828
to base it upon performance.My approval over your life
00:05:48.828 --> 00:05:49.862
My approval over your lifeis according
00:05:49.862 --> 00:05:51.464
is accordingto your performance.
00:05:51.464 --> 00:05:52.932
to your performance.And if you keep my rules,
00:05:52.932 --> 00:05:53.866
And if you keep my rules,and if you keep
00:05:53.866 --> 00:05:55.134
and if you keepwhat I tell you to do,
00:05:55.134 --> 00:05:56.068
what I tell you to do,and if you do everything
00:05:56.068 --> 00:05:57.069
and if you do everythingI ask you
00:05:57.069 --> 00:05:58.171
I ask youto do according to the way
00:05:58.171 --> 00:05:59.138
to do according to the waythat I ask it,
00:05:59.138 --> 00:06:00.373
that I ask it,then I approve.
00:06:00.373 --> 00:06:01.707
then I approve.And you can come with
00:06:01.707 --> 00:06:03.643
And you can come withconfidence toward me.
00:06:03.643 --> 00:06:05.445
confidence toward me.But God said that's not
00:06:05.445 --> 00:06:07.613
But God said that's nothow I want you to be.
00:06:07.613 --> 00:06:08.848
how I want you to be.I don't want you on your
00:06:08.848 --> 00:06:10.750
I don't want you on yourgood days to act like
00:06:10.750 --> 00:06:12.652
good days to act likeyou can come because of what
00:06:12.652 --> 00:06:15.822
you can come because of whatyou have done and be confident
00:06:15.822 --> 00:06:17.256
you have done and be confidentthat I'm going to answer
00:06:17.256 --> 00:06:19.392
that I'm going to answerand hear your prayer.
00:06:19.392 --> 00:06:23.329
and hear your prayer.But Hebrews 4 puts it like this.
00:06:23.329 --> 00:06:25.431
But Hebrews 4 puts it like this.We are to come boldly
00:06:25.431 --> 00:06:28.334
We are to come boldlybefore the throne of grace
00:06:28.334 --> 00:06:32.104
before the throne of gracein the time of need.
00:06:32.104 --> 00:06:33.606
in the time of need.Oh.
00:06:33.606 --> 00:06:34.640
Oh.Come boldly before the throne
00:06:34.640 --> 00:06:35.608
Come boldly before the throneof grace that we might
00:06:35.608 --> 00:06:36.542
of grace that we mightobtain mercy.
00:06:36.542 --> 00:06:37.410
obtain mercy.That's the time
00:06:37.410 --> 00:06:38.377
That's the timewhen I don't feel like coming
00:06:38.377 --> 00:06:39.679
when I don't feel like comingis when I need mercy.
00:06:39.679 --> 00:06:40.713
is when I need mercy.When I need grace.
00:06:40.713 --> 00:06:41.814
When I need grace.Usually when your heart
00:06:41.814 --> 00:06:42.682
Usually when your heartcondemns you,
00:06:42.682 --> 00:06:44.750
condemns you,your head goes down.
00:06:44.750 --> 00:06:45.585
your head goes down.Usually when your heart
00:06:45.585 --> 00:06:47.620
Usually when your heartcondemns you, you're ashamed.
00:06:47.620 --> 00:06:48.521
condemns you, you're ashamed.Usually when your heart
00:06:48.521 --> 00:06:49.589

in your performance,but your acceptance will be
00:07:14.480 --> 00:07:17.583
but your acceptance will bepredicated upon my performance
00:07:17.583 --> 00:07:19.252
predicated upon my performanceon the cross
00:07:19.252 --> 00:07:20.987
on the crossand when I shed my blood
00:07:20.987 --> 00:07:22.588
and when I shed my bloodand rose from the dead.
00:07:22.588 --> 00:07:24.657
and rose from the dead.I don't want you ashamed.

We don't believewhat I'm preaching.
00:07:38.971 --> 00:07:40.239
what I'm preaching.We believe that we're supposed
00:07:40.239 --> 00:07:41.707
We believe that we're supposedto go around --
00:07:41.707 --> 00:07:43.509
to go around --but He said I want you in

Parents.How many of you have kids
00:08:16.475 --> 00:08:17.877
They lie.
00:08:24.784 --> 00:08:25.551
They lie.And you know what?
00:08:25.551 --> 00:08:26.319
And you know what?I wanna ask you
00:08:26.319 --> 00:08:27.086
I wanna ask youa second question.
00:08:27.086 --> 00:08:27.954

00:08:32.458 --> 00:08:35.628
How many of you wanted to?[laughter]
00:08:35.628 --> 00:08:37.463
[laughter]You didn't.
00:08:37.463 --> 00:08:38.965
You didn't.As a matter of fact,
00:08:38.965 --> 00:08:42.835
As a matter of fact,the worse things they did
00:08:42.835 --> 00:08:44.637
the worse things they didin reality made me
00:08:44.637 --> 00:08:46.772
in reality made melove ‘em more.
00:08:46.772 --> 00:08:49.442
love ‘em more.Made my heart go to ‘em more.
00:08:49.442 --> 00:08:54.046
Made my heart go to ‘em more.God is the same way.
00:08:54.046 --> 00:08:55.915
God is the same way.And when you understand that,
00:08:55.915 --> 00:08:57.083
And when you understand that,and you understand if our heart
00:08:57.083 --> 00:09:00.686
and you understand if our heartcondemns us,
00:09:00.686 --> 00:09:02.855
condemns us,God is greater than our heart.
00:09:02.855 --> 00:09:03.990
God is greater than our heart.He does not love me less
00:09:03.990 --> 00:09:05.891
He does not love me lessbecause I fail.
00:09:05.891 --> 00:09:07.126
because I fail.God doesn't condemn.
00:09:07.126 --> 00:09:08.494
God doesn't condemn.He convicts.
00:09:08.494 --> 00:09:09.962
He convicts.The devil condemns, listen,
00:09:09.962 --> 00:09:11.497
The devil condemns, listen,because he gives
00:09:11.497 --> 00:09:13.366
because he giveswhat's inside of him.
00:09:13.366 --> 00:09:16.002
what's inside of him.He's condemned.
00:09:16.002 --> 00:09:17.436
He's condemned.He messed up,
00:09:17.436 --> 00:09:18.771
He messed up,and God didn't send a flea
00:09:18.771 --> 00:09:21.273
and God didn't send a fleato redeem him.
00:09:21.273 --> 00:09:22.575
to redeem him.I messed up,
00:09:22.575 --> 00:09:24.443
I messed up,and God bankrupted Heaven
00:09:24.443 --> 00:09:28.114
and God bankrupted Heavenand sent His Son to redeem me.
00:09:28.114 --> 00:09:30.416
and sent His Son to redeem me.All he can do is condemn,
00:09:30.416 --> 00:09:31.517
All he can do is condemn,but the Holy Spirit
00:09:31.517 --> 00:09:34.253
but the Holy Spiritconvicts and draws me to Jesus.
00:09:34.253 --> 00:09:35.287
convicts and draws me to Jesus.He condemns and tries
00:09:35.287 --> 00:09:38.224
He condemns and triesto drive me away from Him.
00:09:38.224 --> 00:09:39.659
to drive me away from Him.By the way, that devil
00:09:39.659 --> 00:09:41.260
By the way, that devilthat condemns you
00:09:41.260 --> 00:09:42.561
that condemns youand attacks you the moment
00:09:42.561 --> 00:09:45.564
and attacks you the momentyou fall for the temptation
00:09:45.564 --> 00:09:47.199

I just wanna remind him everyonce in a while.
00:09:50.536 --> 00:09:52.405
once in a while.Nobody's been a loser
00:09:52.405 --> 00:09:55.741
Nobody's been a loserlonger than Satan.
00:09:55.741 --> 00:09:57.743
longer than Satan.He couldn't even live right
00:09:57.743 --> 00:09:58.611
He couldn't even live rightin the throne room
00:09:58.611 --> 00:09:59.912
in the throne roomof Heaven.
00:09:59.912 --> 00:10:01.247
of Heaven.He couldn't live for God
00:10:01.247 --> 00:10:03.916
He couldn't live for Godwhen there was no devil.
00:10:03.916 --> 00:10:05.217
when there was no devil.He couldn't live for God
00:10:05.217 --> 00:10:07.119
He couldn't live for Godwhen there was no temptation.
00:10:07.119 --> 00:10:08.320
when there was no temptation.He couldn't live for God
00:10:08.320 --> 00:10:09.789
He couldn't live for Godwhen there was no curse.
00:10:09.789 --> 00:10:11.457
when there was no curse.And I'm in a cursed world.
00:10:11.457 --> 00:10:13.359
And I'm in a cursed world.I'm in a temptation world.
00:10:13.359 --> 00:10:15.061
I'm in a temptation world.I'm in a sinful world.
00:10:15.061 --> 00:10:17.029
I'm in a sinful world.But I follow Jesus.
00:10:17.029 --> 00:10:18.798
But I follow Jesus.And when I slip and when I fall,
00:10:18.798 --> 00:10:20.266
And when I slip and when I fall,don't you accuse me.
00:10:20.266 --> 00:10:21.267
don't you accuse me.You couldn't live it
00:10:21.267 --> 00:10:22.368
You couldn't live itwhen you were in Heaven,

and I'm living it down hereon earth.
00:10:24.370 --> 00:10:25.638
on earth.And when I do fall,
00:10:25.638 --> 00:10:27.773
And when I do fall,I'll come boldly into
00:10:27.773 --> 00:10:30.209
I'll come boldly intothe throne of grace -- woo!

Because if you start listeningto the voice of condemnation
00:13:26.485 --> 00:13:27.686
to the voice of condemnationthat says you failed,
00:13:27.686 --> 00:13:29.555
that says you failed,therefore you don't earn,
00:13:29.555 --> 00:13:30.422
therefore you don't earn,and you don't have
00:13:30.422 --> 00:13:31.657
and you don't havethe approval of God
00:13:31.657 --> 00:13:33.425
the approval of Godbecause something you've done
00:13:33.425 --> 00:13:35.895
because something you've donedoesn't allow you to have that,
00:13:35.895 --> 00:13:37.930
doesn't allow you to have that,and instead of running to God,
00:13:37.930 --> 00:13:39.098
and instead of running to God,you run from God,
00:13:39.098 --> 00:13:41.333
you run from God,you'll say I'm going fishing.
00:13:41.333 --> 00:13:42.301
you'll say I'm going fishing.I'm going back
00:13:42.301 --> 00:13:43.435
I'm going backto what I used to do.
00:13:43.435 --> 00:13:44.770
to what I used to do.And the thing I wanna show you
00:13:44.770 --> 00:13:47.573
And the thing I wanna show youis that's exactly what Satan
00:13:47.573 --> 00:13:49.308
is that's exactly what Satanwants to do with condemnation.
00:13:49.308 --> 00:13:50.843
wants to do with condemnation.So that you'll quit
00:13:50.843 --> 00:13:52.111
So that you'll quitand give up on everything
00:13:52.111 --> 00:13:53.212
and give up on everythingGod's promised you.
00:13:53.212 --> 00:13:54.413
God's promised you.I'm going fishing.
00:13:54.413 --> 00:13:55.247
I'm going fishing.I'm going back to what
00:13:55.247 --> 00:13:56.949
I'm going back to whatI used to do before I met Jesus.
00:13:56.949 --> 00:13:58.284
I used to do before I met Jesus.And then notice this part.
00:13:58.284 --> 00:14:00.319
And then notice this part.And they said with him,
00:14:00.319 --> 00:14:02.354
And they said with him,we're going with you also.
00:14:02.354 --> 00:14:03.689
we're going with you also.If you go back,
00:14:03.689 --> 00:14:04.390
If you go back,there's some people
00:14:04.390 --> 00:14:05.758
there's some peoplethat are gonna go back with you.
00:14:05.758 --> 00:14:06.625
that are gonna go back with you.If you go back to who
00:14:06.625 --> 00:14:07.526
If you go back to whoyou used to be
00:14:07.526 --> 00:14:08.727
you used to beand what you used to do,
00:14:08.727 --> 00:14:09.828
and what you used to do,and you start picking up stuff
00:14:09.828 --> 00:14:11.430
and you start picking up stuffthat you were doing before
00:14:11.430 --> 00:14:12.598
that you were doing beforeyou met Jesus,
00:14:12.598 --> 00:14:14.066
you met Jesus,and now that you've failed Him,
00:14:14.066 --> 00:14:15.134
and now that you've failed Him,and you've listened to the lie
00:14:15.134 --> 00:14:16.001
and you've listened to the lieof the enemy --
00:14:16.001 --> 00:14:17.069
of the enemy --that you're not to come to God
00:14:17.069 --> 00:14:17.937
that you're not to come to Godwhen you're weak
00:14:17.937 --> 00:14:18.971
when you're weakin the time of need
00:14:18.971 --> 00:14:20.639
in the time of needbut you are further and further,
00:14:20.639 --> 00:14:21.907
but you are further and further,and condemnation
00:14:21.907 --> 00:14:23.108
and condemnationdrives you away --
00:14:23.108 --> 00:14:24.176
drives you away --conviction is always
00:14:24.176 --> 00:14:26.879
conviction is alwaysdrawing you nearer,
00:14:26.879 --> 00:14:29.048
drawing you nearer,and you listen to that voice,
00:14:29.048 --> 00:14:30.783
and you listen to that voice,not only will you go back
00:14:30.783 --> 00:14:31.917
not only will you go backto what you used to do,
00:14:31.917 --> 00:14:32.851
to what you used to do,but you're gonna take some
00:14:32.851 --> 00:14:34.153
but you're gonna take somepeople in your family,
00:14:34.153 --> 00:14:35.321
people in your family,some people in your sphere
00:14:35.321 --> 00:14:36.722
some people in your sphereof influence.
00:14:36.722 --> 00:14:37.990
of influence.You're gonna take some
00:14:37.990 --> 00:14:38.824
Now watch this.
00:14:42.995 --> 00:14:43.862
Now watch this.They go out,
00:14:43.862 --> 00:14:46.498
They go out,and they fish all night,
00:14:46.498 --> 00:14:50.169
and they fish all night,and they catch nothing.
00:14:50.169 --> 00:14:51.537
and they catch nothing.The next morning as the sun
00:14:51.537 --> 00:14:53.806
The next morning as the sunis rising,
00:14:53.806 --> 00:14:56.008
is rising,they're getting their empty nets
00:14:56.008 --> 00:14:59.578
they're getting their empty netsin and about to call it a night.
00:14:59.578 --> 00:15:01.647
in and about to call it a night.And they see a silhouette
00:15:01.647 --> 00:15:02.881
And they see a silhouetteas the sun is coming up
00:15:02.881 --> 00:15:05.417
as the sun is coming upbehind them of a tall,
00:15:05.417 --> 00:15:08.120
behind them of a tall,lean Galilean.
00:15:08.120 --> 00:15:10.689
lean Galilean.And He calls out over the water:
00:15:10.689 --> 00:15:14.026
And He calls out over the water:did you catch any fish?
00:15:14.026 --> 00:15:15.894
did you catch any fish?And your Bible said that John,
00:15:15.894 --> 00:15:17.963
And your Bible said that John,who laid his head
00:15:17.963 --> 00:15:22.601
who laid his headon Jesus' chest, turned to Peter
00:15:22.601 --> 00:15:26.572
on Jesus' chest, turned to Peterand said, I know that voice.
00:15:26.572 --> 00:15:34.246
and said, I know that voice.Oh, I know that's Him.
00:15:34.246 --> 00:15:36.482
Oh, I know that's Him.That's Him.
00:15:36.482 --> 00:15:39.818
That's Him.How do you know it's Him?
00:15:39.818 --> 00:15:40.886
How do you know it's Him?And this isn't in the text,
00:15:40.886 --> 00:15:45.991
And this isn't in the text,but it's between the lines.
00:15:45.991 --> 00:15:47.960
but it's between the lines.Can you see John saying,
00:15:47.960 --> 00:15:49.962
Can you see John saying,who else would ever ask you
00:15:49.962 --> 00:15:51.663
who else would ever ask youto try again where you
00:15:51.663 --> 00:15:54.566
to try again where youfailed before?
00:15:54.566 --> 00:15:56.268
failed before?Because He said cast your net
00:15:56.268 --> 00:15:57.569
Because He said cast your neton the other side.
00:15:57.569 --> 00:15:59.471
on the other side.But we tried before,
00:15:59.471 --> 00:16:00.539
But we tried before,and we failed.
00:16:00.539 --> 00:16:01.740
and we failed.Only Jesus would tell you
00:16:01.740 --> 00:16:03.108
If you failed, try again.
00:16:09.048 --> 00:16:11.850
If you failed, try again.If you messed up, try again.
00:16:11.850 --> 00:16:13.419
If you messed up, try again.If you dropped the ball,
00:16:13.419 --> 00:16:14.953
If you dropped the ball,try again.
00:16:14.953 --> 00:16:16.622
try again.If you messed up,
00:16:16.622 --> 00:16:19.058
If you messed up,get up and try again.
00:16:19.058 --> 00:16:21.994
get up and try again.Cast your net in the same water,
00:16:21.994 --> 00:16:23.362
Cast your net in the same water,in the same lake,
00:16:23.362 --> 00:16:27.566
in the same lake,in the same spot.
00:16:27.566 --> 00:16:31.737
in the same spot.But do it my way.
00:16:31.737 --> 00:16:32.771
But do it my way.And the Bible said
00:16:32.771 --> 00:16:35.307
And the Bible saidtheir nets were overloaded.
00:16:35.307 --> 00:16:37.476
their nets were overloaded.And then Bible said that
00:16:37.476 --> 00:16:39.578
And then Bible said thatPeter jumped into the water
00:16:39.578 --> 00:16:41.113
Peter jumped into the waterand swam to the bank,
00:16:41.113 --> 00:16:42.514
and swam to the bank,got outta the water,
00:16:42.514 --> 00:16:43.615
got outta the water,and went over,
00:16:43.615 --> 00:16:45.284
and went over,and Jesus was cooking.
00:16:45.284 --> 00:16:46.852
and Jesus was cooking.Had coals that were hot
00:16:46.852 --> 00:16:48.320
Had coals that were hotand was cooking bread.
00:16:48.320 --> 00:16:49.588
and was cooking bread.And He said, I need some meat.
00:16:49.588 --> 00:16:50.689
And He said, I need some meat.And he gave Him some fish.
00:16:50.689 --> 00:16:51.723
And he gave Him some fish.Cooked some fish.
00:16:51.723 --> 00:16:53.125
Cooked some fish.And as he's eating,
00:16:53.125 --> 00:16:55.194
And as he's eating,Jesus does something strange.
00:16:55.194 --> 00:16:57.329
Jesus does something strange.He says to him,
00:16:57.329 --> 00:17:00.999
He says to him,do you love me?
00:17:00.999 --> 00:17:02.501
do you love me?He says -- I believe
00:17:02.501 --> 00:17:04.436
He says -- I believeat that moment that heart
00:17:04.436 --> 00:17:05.737
at that moment that heartof condemnation starts saying
00:17:05.737 --> 00:17:07.339
of condemnation starts sayinguh oh.
00:17:07.339 --> 00:17:09.641
uh oh.He's gonna bring up your past.
00:17:09.641 --> 00:17:10.542
He's gonna bring up your past.He's gonna ask you,
00:17:10.542 --> 00:17:12.111
He's gonna ask you,why did you deny me?
00:17:12.111 --> 00:17:13.345
why did you deny me?He's gonna remind you how bad
00:17:13.345 --> 00:17:15.214
He's gonna remind you how badyou messed up, you liar.
00:17:15.214 --> 00:17:16.682
you messed up, you liar.You denier.
00:17:16.682 --> 00:17:17.583
You denier.Do you love me?
00:17:17.583 --> 00:17:19.184
Do you love me?Yes, I love you.
00:17:19.184 --> 00:17:20.185
Yes, I love you.Jesus asked him again,
00:17:20.185 --> 00:17:22.254
Jesus asked him again,do you love me?
00:17:22.254 --> 00:17:23.222
do you love me?Yes, I love you.
00:17:23.222 --> 00:17:24.690
Yes, I love you.Jesus asked him a third time,
00:17:24.690 --> 00:17:25.724
Jesus asked him a third time,do you love me?
00:17:25.724 --> 00:17:27.793
do you love me?But this time Peter --
00:17:27.793 --> 00:17:30.796
But this time Peter --the Bible said his heart --
00:17:30.796 --> 00:17:32.264
the Bible said his heart --he was sorrowful.
00:17:32.264 --> 00:17:33.532
he was sorrowful.His heart smote him.
00:17:33.532 --> 00:17:35.334
His heart smote him.He's sorrowful.
00:17:35.334 --> 00:17:36.068
He's sorrowful.And then he makes
00:17:36.068 --> 00:17:38.003
And then he makesthis statement.
00:17:38.003 --> 00:17:38.937
this statement.He was grieved,
00:17:38.937 --> 00:17:40.539
He was grieved,and he said Lord --
00:17:40.539 --> 00:17:44.243
and he said Lord --watch this --
00:17:44.243 --> 00:17:47.179
watch this --you know all things.
00:17:47.179 --> 00:17:50.682
you know all things.Jesus says, that's exactly
00:17:50.682 --> 00:17:52.651
Jesus says, that's exactlythe answer I was waiting on.
00:17:52.651 --> 00:17:53.552
the answer I was waiting on.I believe John was sitting
00:17:53.552 --> 00:17:55.387
I believe John was sittingover there with an ink pen,
00:17:55.387 --> 00:17:57.523
over there with an ink pen,saying you know all things.
00:17:57.523 --> 00:17:58.390
saying you know all things.I'm gonna write a book
00:17:58.390 --> 00:17:59.491
If your heart condemns you,
00:18:08.767 --> 00:18:10.402
If your heart condemns you,God is greater than your heart
00:18:10.402 --> 00:18:12.104
God is greater than your heartfor He knows all things.
00:18:12.104 --> 00:18:13.539
for He knows all things.In other words, Jesus was saying
00:18:13.539 --> 00:18:14.606
In other words, Jesus was sayingI wanted you to get
00:18:14.606 --> 00:18:16.275
I wanted you to getthe revelation that I knew
00:18:16.275 --> 00:18:17.276
the revelation that I knewyou didn't mean it.
00:18:17.276 --> 00:18:19.011
you didn't mean it.I knew you didn't mean to lie.
00:18:19.011 --> 00:18:20.612
I knew you didn't mean to lie.I knew you didn't mean to deny.
00:18:20.612 --> 00:18:21.613
I knew you didn't mean to deny.I knew deep
00:18:21.613 --> 00:18:22.548
I knew deepin your heart of hearts,
00:18:22.548 --> 00:18:23.849
in your heart of hearts,even though you did a deed
00:18:23.849 --> 00:18:24.917
even though you did a deedthat failed me,
00:18:24.917 --> 00:18:26.985
that failed me,I don't throw you away
00:18:26.985 --> 00:18:28.220
I don't throw you awaybecause I know
00:18:28.220 --> 00:18:29.588
because I knowin your heart of hearts
00:18:29.588 --> 00:18:31.089
in your heart of heartsyou wanna be like me.
00:18:31.089 --> 00:18:33.125
you wanna be like me.I know ultimate -- listen.
00:18:33.125 --> 00:18:34.560
I know ultimate -- listen.He knows all things,
00:18:34.560 --> 00:18:36.161
He knows all things,which means He knew that
00:18:36.161 --> 00:18:37.396
which means He knew thatthe failure that everybody
00:18:37.396 --> 00:18:39.464
the failure that everybodyelse saw would be so strong
00:18:39.464 --> 00:18:41.466
else saw would be so strongone day that he would refuse
00:18:41.466 --> 00:18:44.036
one day that he would refuseto be crucified upright.
00:18:44.036 --> 00:18:46.104
to be crucified upright.He would request to be crucified
00:18:46.104 --> 00:18:47.873
He would request to be crucifiedupside down.
00:18:47.873 --> 00:18:49.408
upside down.Your Bible says that.
00:18:49.408 --> 00:18:50.842
Your Bible says that.But he was not going
00:18:50.842 --> 00:18:51.877
But he was not goingto deny Jesus.
00:18:51.877 --> 00:18:53.111
to deny Jesus.He said I'm not worthy
00:18:53.111 --> 00:18:54.546
He said I'm not worthyto be crucified like He was.
00:18:54.546 --> 00:18:59.685
to be crucified like He was.Crucify me upside down.
00:18:59.685 --> 00:19:01.253
Crucify me upside down.And Jesus knew all things.
00:19:01.253 --> 00:19:02.421
And Jesus knew all things.Jesus knew you're not
00:19:02.421 --> 00:19:04.523
Jesus knew you're nota piece of trash.
00:19:04.523 --> 00:19:05.591
a piece of trash.That's not who you are.
00:19:05.591 --> 00:19:06.658
That's not who you are.I'm gonna use you
00:19:06.658 --> 00:19:07.659
I'm gonna use youon the Day of Pentecost.
00:19:07.659 --> 00:19:08.360
on the Day of Pentecost.Now watch this.
00:19:08.360 --> 00:19:09.061
Now watch this.Go forward.
00:19:09.061 --> 00:19:09.828
You move into Acts 2.
00:19:13.765 --> 00:19:15.167
You move into Acts 2.The Holy Spirit fills
00:19:15.167 --> 00:19:18.103
The Holy Spirit fillsthe Upper Room and fills 120.
00:19:18.103 --> 00:19:21.440
the Upper Room and fills 120.They spill out into the streets,
00:19:21.440 --> 00:19:23.542
They spill out into the streets,and Simon Peter begins to preach
00:19:23.542 --> 00:19:25.544
and Simon Peter begins to preachunder the anointing.
00:19:25.544 --> 00:19:27.145
under the anointing.And he says to the people
00:19:27.145 --> 00:19:28.480
And he says to the peoplewho crucified Him and who
00:19:28.480 --> 00:19:30.048
who crucified Him and whowere screaming crucify Him --
00:19:30.048 --> 00:19:32.317
were screaming crucify Him --he says to the same people,
00:19:32.317 --> 00:19:34.419
he says to the same people,you crucified Him,
00:19:34.419 --> 00:19:36.121
you crucified Him,but God has raised Him
00:19:36.121 --> 00:19:40.459
but God has raised Himand made Him Lord and Christ.
00:19:40.459 --> 00:19:44.696
and made Him Lord and Christ.And the Bible said in Acts 2:37,
00:19:44.696 --> 00:19:45.631
And the Bible said in Acts 2:37,and they were --
00:19:45.631 --> 00:19:46.798
and they were --watch the wording,
00:19:46.798 --> 00:19:51.303
watch the wording,pricked in their heart.
00:19:51.303 --> 00:19:53.939
pricked in their heart.They felt condemnation.
00:19:53.939 --> 00:19:57.576
They felt condemnation.Condemned in their heart.
00:19:57.576 --> 00:19:59.177
Condemned in their heart.We killed Him.
00:19:59.177 --> 00:20:00.712
We killed Him.Now it's one thing for us to say
00:20:00.712 --> 00:20:01.647
Now it's one thing for us to sayI failed Him,
00:20:01.647 --> 00:20:04.449
I failed Him,but I don't have His blood
00:20:04.449 --> 00:20:06.285
but I don't have His bloodon my hands literally.
00:20:06.285 --> 00:20:08.387
on my hands literally.I don't -- they literally
00:20:08.387 --> 00:20:10.689
I don't -- they literallyhad His blood on their hands.
00:20:10.689 --> 00:20:12.524
had His blood on their hands.They said His blood be on us
00:20:12.524 --> 00:20:15.027
They said His blood be on usand on our children.
00:20:15.027 --> 00:20:18.563
and on our children.We wanna crucify Him.
00:20:18.563 --> 00:20:19.531
We wanna crucify Him.And they were pricked
00:20:19.531 --> 00:20:20.399
And they were prickedin their heart.
00:20:20.399 --> 00:20:21.199
in their heart.And their heart began
00:20:21.199 --> 00:20:22.000
And their heart beganto scream,
00:20:22.000 --> 00:20:24.102
to scream,guilty, guilty, guilty.
00:20:24.102 --> 00:20:25.370
guilty, guilty, guilty.You crucified Him.
00:20:25.370 --> 00:20:26.738
You crucified Him.You killed Him.
00:20:26.738 --> 00:20:27.706
You killed Him.And they are saying
00:20:27.706 --> 00:20:28.774
And they are sayingto Simon Peter,
00:20:28.774 --> 00:20:30.042
to Simon Peter,is there any hope
00:20:30.042 --> 00:20:34.579
is there any hopefor somebody like me?
00:20:34.579 --> 00:20:36.381
for somebody like me?And Peter says oh,
00:20:36.381 --> 00:20:38.016
And Peter says oh,if you only knew the guy who's
00:20:38.016 --> 00:20:42.187
if you only knew the guy who'spreaching had a heart
00:20:42.187 --> 00:20:44.222
preaching had a heartthat condemned him.
00:20:44.222 --> 00:20:45.223
that condemned him.Lemme introduce you

Lemme introduce youto the Savior.
00:20:47.092 --> 00:20:49.461

That if your heart condemns you,He's greater than your heart,
00:20:51.830 --> 00:20:54.566
He's greater than your heart,and He knows all things.
00:20:54.566 --> 00:20:55.701
and He knows all things.He knows you really wanna

00:21:18.023 --> 00:21:19.257
Not when you're doing good.Not if you've had the greatest

With full confidencein the blood of the Lamb.
00:21:38.844 --> 00:21:40.145
in the blood of the Lamb.And I close with this verse.
00:21:40.145 --> 00:21:46.952
And I close with this verse.Psalms 51 said when my heart
00:21:46.952 --> 00:21:49.287
Psalms 51 said when my heartis overwhelmed --
00:21:49.287 --> 00:21:52.023
is overwhelmed --guilty, guilty, guilty.
00:21:52.023 --> 00:21:53.892
guilty, guilty, guilty.Quit, quit, quit.
00:21:53.892 --> 00:21:56.161
Quit, quit, quit.Condemn, condemn, condemn.
00:21:56.161 --> 00:21:59.464
Condemn, condemn, condemn.When my heart is overwhelmed,
00:21:59.464 --> 00:22:02.901
When my heart is overwhelmed,lead me to the rock.
00:22:02.901 --> 00:22:03.902
lead me to the rock.The one who's greater
00:22:03.902 --> 00:22:07.005
The one who's greaterthan my heart
00:22:07.005 --> 00:22:09.174

00:22:09.174 --> 00:22:10.542
and knows all things.Lead me to the rock
00:22:10.542 --> 00:22:12.244
Lead me to the rockthat is higher than I.
00:22:12.244 --> 00:22:15.981
that is higher than I.Romans 8 said there is now
00:22:15.981 --> 00:22:20.852
Romans 8 said there is nowtherefore no condemnation
00:22:20.852 --> 00:22:22.087
therefore no condemnationto those who
00:22:22.087 --> 00:22:24.256
to those whoare in Christ Jesus.
00:22:24.256 --> 00:22:25.924
are in Christ Jesus.Who do not walk according
00:22:25.924 --> 00:22:28.360
Who do not walk accordingto the flesh,
00:22:28.360 --> 00:22:30.395
to the flesh,listening to their heart,
00:22:30.395 --> 00:22:33.131
listening to their heart,but according to the spirit
00:22:33.131 --> 00:22:35.634
but according to the spiritand what Jesus has done
00:22:35.634 --> 00:22:37.436
and what Jesus has doneby His blood and His name.
00:22:37.436 --> 00:22:39.104
by His blood and His name.Did you catch it?
00:22:39.104 --> 00:22:40.739
Did you catch it?Did you catch it in my text?
00:22:40.739 --> 00:22:43.175
Did you catch it in my text?He said if you keep
00:22:43.175 --> 00:22:44.142
He said if you keepmy commandments,
00:22:44.142 --> 00:22:45.277
my commandments,you can ask boldly.
00:22:45.277 --> 00:22:46.178
you can ask boldly.And then He says,
00:22:46.178 --> 00:22:47.579
And then He says,what is my commandment?
00:22:47.579 --> 00:22:48.747
what is my commandment?That you believe on the name
00:22:48.747 --> 00:22:50.749
That you believe on the nameof the Lord Jesus Christ,
00:22:50.749 --> 00:22:52.651
of the Lord Jesus Christ,and that you love one another,
00:22:52.651 --> 00:22:55.287
and that you love one another,and you fulfill the law.
00:22:55.287 --> 00:22:56.755
and you fulfill the law.That you believe on the name
00:22:56.755 --> 00:22:58.190
That you believe on the nameof the Lord Jesus Christ,
00:22:58.190 --> 00:23:01.293
of the Lord Jesus Christ,and that you love one another,
00:23:01.293 --> 00:23:05.397
and that you love one another,and you fulfill the law.
00:23:05.397 --> 00:23:06.198
and you fulfill the law.It's pretty powerful,
00:23:06.198 --> 00:23:07.666
It's pretty powerful,isn't it?
00:23:07.666 --> 00:23:09.968
isn't it?We have put so many things
00:23:09.968 --> 00:23:11.536
We have put so many thingson the gospel,
00:23:11.536 --> 00:23:12.637
on the gospel,when the truth is,
00:23:12.637 --> 00:23:16.942
when the truth is,that is the gospel.
00:23:16.942 --> 00:23:18.610
that is the gospel.And we are to receive His

and love.Because when your heart
00:23:24.649 --> 00:23:27.786

00:23:27.786 --> 00:23:32.624
is overwhelmed with guilt,failure, condemnation,
00:23:32.624 --> 00:23:34.359

00:23:37.229 --> 00:23:39.498
higher than your heart.And His name is Jesus.
