(Disclaimer: This transcript is auto-generated and may contain mistakes.) Okay, we're in Psalm chapter 15 and we'll just reread the chapter because it's such a short chapter. It's a good chapter though It says Lord who shall abide in thy tabernacle who shall dwell in thy holy hill He that walketh up rightly and worketh righteousness and speaketh the truth in his heart He that backbiteth not with his tongue nor doeth evil to his neighbor Nor taketh up a reproach against his neighbor in whose eyes a vile person is condemned But he honoreth them that fear the Lord he that swear it to his own hurt and changeth not He that putteth not out his money to usury nor taketh reward against the innocent He that doeth these things shall never be moved And the title of the sermon this evening is who shall dwell in thy holy hill who shall dwell in thy holy hill now Psalm 15 as I mentioned is a very small chapter but this chapter contains some very important instructions for God's people to give heed to and Verse 1 really poses an important question He says who shall dwell in thy excuse me abide in thy tabernacle who shall dwell in thy holy hill now Automatically we know from reading this chapter that this isn't this isn't an instructional chapter on how to be saved Okay And you know, there's people who will take any verse any chapter in the Bible that he's even remotely talking about Maybe even salvation or heaven and they'll automatically say well, this is referring to heaven, you know You got to adhere to these instructions if we're gonna go to heaven if we're gonna be saved But this is not what this is talking about. Why do we know that? Well because of the fact that there's no mention of eternal life here. There's no mention of being saved There's no mention of salvation just in general. What is it that's being mentioned here? Well, he says abiding in thy tabernacle and dwelling in the holy hill now make no mistake about it These two areas is referring to heaven so to speak. Okay, and In fact when you think about the tabernacle We understand that there was a physical tabernacle in the Old Testament where the presence of God was Where the high priest would go in once a year and he was the only one who was allowed to be there But it was figurative of the things like present of that actual tabernacle, which is in heaven and what it simply Symbolized was the presence of God where God was where God dwelled where God God's glory was And of course we understand that Holy Hill is the same thing and in fact go with me if you went to Psalm 24 I'm gonna read to you from Psalm 3 verse 4 says I cried into the Lord with my voice and he heard me out of his Holy Hill Selah Psalm 99 verse 9 says exalt the Lord our God and worship at his holy hill for the Lord our God is Holy now the question is what is this referring to in Psalm 15? When he says who shall abide in thy tabernacle who shall dwell in thy Holy Hill if this is not referring to who's gonna Go to heaven or who's gonna have salvation What is this talking about? Well often King David will you know and some of the psalms will use this poetic language to symbolize something else and Let's look at example here in Psalm 24 says the earth is the Lord and the fullness thereof the world and they that dwell therein Free have founded it upon the seas Verse 2 and establish it upon the floods Who shall ascend into the hill of the Lord who shall stand in his holy place? He that hath clean hands and a pure heart who hath not lifted up his soul to vanity Nor sworn deceitfully look what it says in verse 5. He shall receive blessing from the Lord and righteousness from the God of his Salvation. So what is David saying here in Psalm 24? Well, we can look at Psalm 15 Psalm 24 compare them and if we were to study those out We would come to the conclusion that he's referring to the man Who situates himself in such a way that he becomes the recipient of God's blessing, you know It's almost as if he is in that Holy Temple. He's dwelling and abiding in that tabernacle Therefore because he's in the presence of God God's favor is on him. He receives the blessings of God You know, we don't necessarily have to be in heaven right now to be blessed right we can live here on this earth Obey God obey his word keep his commandments follow his precepts and we become the recipients of God's blessing We become we place ourselves in such a position that God would favor us So Psalm 15 has that same poetic expression that describes that position of God's blessing Now, why is this? Well because of the fact that we understand that God's blessing doesn't happen by osmosis Right, you don't become a Christian and then everything just hunky-dory after that No, in fact, you know, yeah, obviously there's some blessings that come with being a child of God, you know We have eternal life. God is our Heavenly Father. We are his children the Bible tells us that we're sealed with that Holy Spirit of promise, which is The the earnest of our inheritance unto the redemption of the purchase possession. There are certain blessings that we do receive automatically at salvation But that's not the only thing we receive There are blessings over and abundant the Bible says he came not to give just life a life more abundantly You know, there is a list there's an instrumental list of blessings that God wants to give to us in our personal lives But they come with conditions. Okay, they come with rules, you know We have to obey his word in order to receive those blessings. It's not like well, I'm a Christian now God's just gonna bless me. He's gonna favor me no matter how I live no matter what I do no matter You know what a church I go to or what kind of preaching I listen to no matter how I live no matter how worldly God's gonna bless me. That's not how it works You know, we have to situate ourselves in such a way that we would receive those blessings Okay, and we can't have this this expectation mentality where you know, why isn't God blessing me? Well, maybe it's because you're not like obeying him Why isn't God favoring me? Well, maybe it's because you're living in disobedience Now look if if you examine your life when you find yourself in such a situation and you realize well I am obeying God's Word. I am so winning. I'm reading my Bible. I'm keeping my life clean I'm doing whatever I can to live a life that's pleasing unto the Lord. I'm still not being blessed then You know what? It is. It's a time of purification It's a time of sanctification where God is working on you and you know reference the sermon from this morning That's what's happening to you, right? He's taking that hiss up and he's purging you He's cleansing you to make you more formidable mean for the Masters use However, sometimes people don't get blessed by God's because they are in sin Right, or they're just living in direct disobedience to God's Word They're not doing something they know they're supposed to be doing and therefore they're not receiving the blessings of the Lord now here's the unfortunate thing is there's people out there who you know, maybe they're in a church that's lukewarm and They're not being blessed, but they think they are You know, that's that's actually a worse place to be You know to live this delusional life That thinks that they're right with God because they're in some church that is doing some superficial evangelism Some fake ministry and they think they're actually being blessed by God But that's not necessarily the case and this is the person who is ignorant of the depths of his blessings They don't really know what blessings from the Lord are, you know, they translate the blessings of God as a financial blessing They translate the blessing of God as being in a big building With all this with all the glitz and glamour the high steeple few people type thing and they think yeah This is God's blessing is on us, you know, because the church house is filled up Yeah, but how many people of those people are actually saved, you know, are you seeing people baptized? How many people in the church are actually going out and preaching the gospel? You see we need to be able to Translate and interpret the blessings of God Okay, and understand that the blessing of God is not necessarily financial blessing It's not the building that you're located in. It's the prosperity and the success that comes from obeying God's Word, right? Because look we could be blessed by God and be poor. Amen And we could be blessed by God and meet in a small building You know, we could be small physically speaking, but we're big in the eyes of God, right? Because we're obeying his word and so the obvious thing here is that We need to make sure that we place ourselves in such a position that God's favor would be distributed unto us Okay, and this is something we have to work on on a daily basis that we not You know just stray away from the paths of righteousness that would allow us to be blessed by God and look I want you Know you should kind of examine yourself tonight and say, you know Am I being blessed by God because look being in our churches automatically put God's blessing on your life either You know just because you're in our church and you're singing the hymns and you know You're associated with our church or whatever. It may be doesn't mean that you're gonna be blessed by God The blessings come as you obey God's Word the blessings come as you adhere to his precepts And you are doer the word and not just to hear only deceiving your own selves. Don't be delusional. Okay? The Bible says in Psalm 15 go back to Psalm 15 So he gives his list in Psalm 15 He talked he's saying who shall abide in thy tabernacle who shall dwell in thy Holy Hill what he's saying who's gonna be Situated in that position where they can be the recipient of God's blessing Then he goes on to give that list of different things and qualities that this person does and verse 5 says this he that putteth not out of his money to usury nor taketh reward against the innocent He that doeth these things shall never be moved So what does he say? Look if you just work on keeping these things and keeping these qualities, you're not gonna be moved What does that mean? You're not gonna be moved out of God's blessing You're gonna be right where you need to be being blessed by God that his countenance would shine upon you He would bless your family your wife and kids your job your vocation your soul winning your spiritual life You shall not be moved. You know, you're thinking to yourself man. How can I make sure that I keep this momentum going? Well, you got to obey what we see here in Psalm 15. Okay, and obviously this is not an Exhaustive list. This is not a complete list But you know what Psalm 15 is there for a reason and I believe Psalm 15 Even though it's only a matter of like six or eight eleven qualities Many of these are all encompassing to different areas of our life different principles We see in the Bible that when we adhere to we're blessed by God now go to Psalm 16 Probably on the same page there look at verse number five It says the Lord is the portion of mine inheritance and of my cup thou maintainest my lot The lines are fallen unto me in pleasant places. Yea, I have a goodly heritage I will bless the Lord who hath given me counsel. My reigns also instruct me in the night seasons I have set the Lord always before me, but because he is at my right hand I shall not be Moved so notice that he says I have set the Lord always before me, you know, obviously we understand that God is omnipresent But it takes a person who to put Purposeful effort to think upon the Lord right to wake up in the morning and say, you know, I'm gonna live unto Christ, right? I'm gonna die to self. I'm gonna obey the Word of God. I'm gonna read the Bible. I'm gonna pray I'm gonna set the Lord always before me And because he is at my right hand I shall not be moved. Okay, you know, don't ever have this fear like oh, man What if I backslide one day? Why are you thinking that? You know, obviously, you know, we should take heed lest we fall, you know And we should never have had this prideful mentality that we can just you know, nothing will ever happen to us But you know what? What I'm saying is we should have faith that if we're placing the Lord always before us That God is on our right hand that we're obeying him and his word. We shall not be moved. Okay. This is a promise from God Verse 11 says that would show me the path of life in thy presence is fullness of joy at thy right hand There are pleasures forevermore, you know, and this is this is the goal that we should have here. Okay Why is it the people? During the Christmas season are just going into debt to buy all types of things that they don't need to impress people They don't even like why because they don't know joy You know here it says in thy presence is fullness of joy not presents or rather presence of God, right? You know, we have the joy of the Lord and there's pleasures forevermore This is the this is the person who is content with where he's at. He is basking in the blessings of God He's happy where he is serving the Lord so on and so forth So so our goal should always be to place ourselves in that position where we can receive God's blessing Okay, that we would live in such a way that we please God. All right That we have his favor upon our lives. Hey that we can get our prayers answered Right. I mean when's the last time you got a prayer answered think about that? And it may not be because you're ungodly maybe just because you're just not praying But think about this isn't it a blessing to get a prayer answered Right when you ask God for something and he comes through and and look you you ask specifically, right? You are importune in your prayers and you get that prayer answer. What does that call? That's called God's favor When you're able to pray for something and God gives it to you because you've been walking uprightly you're living a life That's pleasing unto him so on and so forth now and obviously there's different conditions to that sometimes You know, if we don't get our prayers answered, it's not because we're ungodly. It's not because we're disobedient Maybe it's just because it's not something that God will want to give us at that moment. You understand, you know, I remember we learned In years past when you pray there's only a few answers you can get it's either a yes It's a no or it's a not now, right? It's just not now Okay, and when you receive that not now you just continue to pray without ceasing Okay, but when doors begin to close you see that it's not something that God's gonna answer Just understand that he has your best interest in mind. Maybe that's not something that's good for you at the moment. You understand Go to Psalm 84 if you would Psalm 84 We need to make sure that we're in agreement with God You know the word that we're in agreement with him That not that we're trying to live perfect lives, but we're trying to live a life that's pleasing to a righteous life The Bible says in Jeremiah 5 25 your iniquities have turned away these things and your sins have withholding good things from you So it's almost in a sense that there is like a reservoir of blessings there that God wants to pour on you But what what hinders that is the wall of sin, you know when you're involved in iniquity, you're involved in sin though It's not that God withholds those things from you it's your sin It's your iniquities that will hold those things from you And look what it says in Psalm 84 verse 10 is for a day in thy courts is better than a thousand I'd rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God than to dwell in the tents of wickedness For the Lord God is the Sun and the shield the Lord will give grace and glory No good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly. That's a promise from God He says no good thing will he withhold from him that walk uprightly Oh wait in case you do in case you have an equity though You know, the only exception would be is if you have iniquity in your life If you have sin between you and your God those things will be withheld from you now I'm not sure how long the sermons gonna be because Psalm 15 is not a very extensive chapter but I want to talk about these things because I want to I want to I read this this week and Something popped out on me and I want to talk about it. But let's go down this list Let's talk about these qualities that he puts forth in Psalm 15 in regards to Situating ourself in such a way that we have God's favor number one. He says that we have to walk uprightly, right? He says in verse number two he that walketh up rightly. Now. What does it mean to be upright? Well upright basically means to have an a straight posture, right? It's an up an upright person is an individual who is void of crookedness He is absent of perversion, right? It's a person who walks a straight and he adheres to rectitude is what it is Now this is important because you know often we think well, I just got to go so when he forgot to bless me Well, you know that's half way true Okay, because that is important. But what's also important to the Lord is what you do behind closed doors What's also important to the Lord is how upright you are in your heart if you are a man or a woman of upright Character and a disposition of uprightness. God is pleased with that, you know people often want to say well, you know Don't judge God look at the pond the harbor man look at on the outward appearance or whatever, you know And it's just like well, yeah You know what the heart is deceitful above all things and desperately wicked who could know it You know and often God looks upon the heart and he sees that it's not upright So that should actually scare you to think that God looks upon the heart because he sees what your true motives are He sees what's in your heart. He sees what you've been feeding your flesh, right? We need to be upright go to Isaiah chapter 33 If you would hold your place there in Psalm 15 Proverbs 10 9 says he that walketh uprightly walketh Shirley But he that is that perverted his ways shall be known. You see a person who just lives an upright life Isn't afraid of anybody knowing anything about them Right. They have nothing to hide in other words. He that walketh uprightly Walketh Shirley they walk confidently they don't they're not worried. Oh man someone gonna catch me You know the wicked flee when no man pursue it, but the righteous are as bold as a lion You know a wicked person who has something to hide will say well, you know, why are you asking that question? You know if you got something to hide Okay, we need to make sure that we're upright not just in our outward dealings, but even in our hearts Proverbs 28 18 says who so walketh uprightly shall be saved But he that is perverse in his ways shall fall at once now. What is this referring to? It's referring to the fact that God's gonna save you from falling, right? He's gonna save you from falling from failing from mischief from evil that can befall you He will save you from those things if you're a person who is upright That's why you know, I think to myself, you know, the Christian really who's living for the Lord is invincible right We're invincible We don't have to worry about some rapper trying to kill us or take our lives You know because if God allows that then you know at that point it's time to go home, man But we know that if we're walking uprightly we shall be saved if we walk uprightly God will bless us for us and we can walk surely we can walk with confidence and boldness Because of the fact that we know we're doing that which is right. Okay. Now look at Isaiah 33 verse number 10 It says now will I rise saith the Lord now will I be exalted now will I lift up myself Ye shall conceive chaff ye shall bring forth stubble your breath as fire shall devour you The people shall be as the burnings of lime as thorns cut up shall they be burned in the fire Here ye that are far off what I have done and ye that are near acknowledge my might the sinners in Zion are afraid Fearfulness hath surprised the hypocrites Who among us shall dwell with the devouring fire who among us shall dwell with the everlasting Burnings he that walketh Righteously and speaketh uprightly he that despiseth the gain of oppressions that Shaketh his hands from holding up bribes that stoppeth his ears from hearing of blood and shut his eyes from seeing evil He shall dwell on high his place of defense shall be the munitions of rocks bread shall be given him His waters shall be sure. I like what he says there in verse number 14 who among us shall dwell With everlasting burnings. Why is it saying that because God is a consuming fire And he's saying who's gonna be the one who sides with the Lord when God is judging, right? I Thought I heard Christmas music I'm just hearing Christmas. I got Christmas music on the mind right now. I heard like pianos like is that someone's phone? Is that my computer? Sorry you know who among us shall dwell with the devouring fire and what he's saying there is like is this who is on the Lord Lord side and then he begins to say hey the ones who walk righteously and speaketh uprightly You know when God begins to judge a nation he begins to judge a people who is God looking for to spare The ones who stand with him, right? when God Allows Sodomites to die and you know these homos at Orlando perish You know who he's gonna spare from his judgment are the ones who actually side with God and say God you're righteous to do this Okay, you are righteous to do this You're righteous to to pour out your wrath upon this people But you know it so this basically means that those who don't Those who condemn the works of God are those who are gonna perish with the unrighteous as well Okay, because at that point what they're doing is they're perverting judgment They're saying that well, you know, God is unrighteous for doing this or God didn't do this. Yes, he did You know anything any natural disaster any you know? Event that takes place where you where you can see a mass destruction of a people God is responsible for that God allows that to happen and We may be a remnant We may be a small people but you know as a small remnant and people who hold to the Word of God We need to side with the Lord on that part. That's what it means to be upright It means in a culture that is crooked and perverse we shine forth as lights in this world Okay Go back to Psalm 15. So how are we gonna situate ourselves in the blessing of God? And what is the blessing about? Well, the blessing of God is when God spares you right? It's when he spares you from the judgment to come You know and by the way, you know, you can be coming to our church, but that doesn't mean you're gonna be spared You can be listening to my preaching but doesn't mean you're gonna be spared It's the person who is upright in heart because I'm sure there's people in church Who come to church to listen to me and they don't agree with what I'm saying They may not they they listen to me They listen to the Word of God and they say well, I don't really agree with that. Okay, that's fine But you're just not agreeing with God and at that point You know you basically forfeited Situating yourself in that place of blessing where God can spare you when he pours out his wrath in his in his his judgment Okay, so he says he that walketh uprightly and then he goes on to say he that worketh righteousness Now, what does it mean to work righteousness? Well, this is the person that puts in the effort to do right Okay, you know we think of a righteous person What that really means is a person who basically disciplines themselves and maybe even the minuscule task Of everyday living to become righteous. Okay. This is the person who gets up in the morning reads their Bible Right. Why cuz it takes work Does it not it's a person who gets up he prays he thinks upon the Lord. He meditates upon the Word of God He's putting in the effort. He's putting in the work to live righteously Okay, the Bible says to seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness and these things shall be added unto you What does that mean you will dwell in his tabernacle? You shall abide in the Holy Hill if you live Righteously you pursue after righteousness and let me say this is that you know coming to church obviously is a blessing But it's what you do when no one else is around It's really important, right? It's what you do when God when when when the pastor can't see you When your team when your team can't see you when those who esteem you look up to you can't see you and it's just God Watching you, you know a righteous person is a person who acts the same way at church as he does at home Right, isn't that important? It's a person of integrity in other words Okay, where they behave as a Christian not just when they're at church. They don't have the Christian ease Not just that church, but they also have it at home as well Right. They talk like a Christian act like a Christian not just when they're at church. They do it at their jobs Okay, they're a person of integrity even when they're working when they're with their children You know a lot of the times in times past many Christian parents lose their children to the world Why is that because their children grow up and they view the hypocrisy of their parents? What hypocrisy is that that their parents behave one way at church and they behave another way when they go home? They're all amen and praising the Lord and we got it You know, they adhere to all the Christian ease of the church, but when they go home, it's a double life It's a double standard that they live You know if you want to save your child From strain from the paths of the Lord. You need to be the same person everywhere and let me know Let me correct that you need to be the same Christian that is righteous everywhere You know or else ten years from now your child's gonna grow up go to the world. You know, what happened? Well, it's because you had loved that they had the simulation with it. You were a hypocrite Okay, you know it needs to be real to you but in order for it to be real for your child You need to work righteousness Okay, the Bible says in Proverbs 15 9 the way of the wicked is an abomination unto the Lord But he that he loveth him that followeth after Righteousness Proverbs 21 21 says he that followeth after righteousness and mercy findeth life righteousness and honor turn with me If you went to 1st Timothy chapter number 6 hold your place there in Psalm Psalm 15 So exerting yourself working means to exert yourself, right? It means that you do that which is right, even if you don't feel like it Because look we have both flesh and spirit We're not always gonna want to do the things that we want to do and look it's not always in regards to even spiritual matters It's being the man that you need to be right? It's going to work even when you don't feel like going to work Right It's doing what your boss tells you to do Even if you don't feel like it. Okay, it's working. It's providing for your family. You understand It's supporting your wife and your children. It's fulfilling your role. That's living righteously There should be no compartmentalization when it comes to the things of God or it's like well You know, we got to be good Christians and when it comes to the things of God when we're in church But you know my secular job my secular life, that's something separate. No, it's not It's all the same thing. God wants you to be righteous in all things Okay, and you want you to work righteousness in all areas of life in all of your dealings? Okay Looking for Timothy 6 and verse 9 says but they that will be rich fall into temptation And a snare and into many foolish and hurtful lusts which drown men into destruction and perdition For the love of money is the root of all evil Which while some coveted after they have erred from the faith and pierced themselves through with many sorrows But thou O man of God flee these things and follow after righteousness godliness faith love patience meekness Fight the good fight of faith lay hold on eternal life We're unto thou are also called and has professed a good profession before many witnesses, you know godliness doesn't mean you can preach Right, if that's the case Jack Scott was one of the godliest people in the world Because that guy can preach Yeah, what in the world Jackson did you say just how can preach yes he could preach He was a great orator, but that guy was wicked as hell That guy's a reprobate. He's a false prophet false teacher You know, I prefer a person who may not have all the preaching abilities, but what do they do? They follow after righteousness. They're characterized by godliness faith love patience meekness and Often this takes some effort on your part to live in such a way. Okay? Hey, it takes effort to repent of sin You know, it takes effort. It takes you exerting yourself to live a godly life. And in fact the Bible says exercise thyself rather unto godliness Exercise means you're exerting yourself to do so. Okay, because you know what spiritual things and spiritual habits don't come naturally to us Right. Let's just be honest. We have to learn to do well, right? We have to learn how to live righteously We have to Adopt our spiritual appetites to desire those things which are right Okay, but it takes effort for us to do so and look dads. This is more so for you than anybody else Obviously the moms need to adhere to this obviously the children need to adhere to this but as the leader of the home You lead the pack. Amen You set the spiritual temperature. You are the thermostat. You are the leader You're the one who's supposed to be leading spiritually in your home. And if that's not the case, okay But you know what exercise thyself rather unto godliness put in that effort to be the man that you need to be so you can situate your family in such a way that you Become the recipient of God's blessing by following after righteousness Okay, by the way, this is later reiterated in Psalm 15 as swearing to his own hurt and changing not right go with me If you would see Ecclesiastes chapter number 5 Ecclesiastes chapter number 5 I'm gonna reach you from Matthew chapter 5 verse 37 says belay your communication be yay. Yay Nay, nay for what's over is more than these cometh of evil. So what is the Bible telling us in Psalm 15? He's saying this He that sweareth to his own hurt and changeth not, you know If you make a promise and you cannot fulfill that promise fulfill that promise even if it hurts you Even if it costs you your resources your time Even if you come out losing at the end, you know The righteous person the upright person sweareth to his own hurt, right You know, we need to be people of integrity Okay, if you promise to do something you should do it if you're gonna be somewhere at a specific time be there Right, don't just be the person who well, you know, this is just me. This is my character flaw Everyone knows it. I'm just gonna be late anyways, no matter where I go. No You know if you say you're gonna be somewhere at a specific time be there don't change Swear to your own hurt, right? This is a person this will we would refer to as being a person a person of integrity. Okay, you know if you have debt You have to pay off, you know it I can't say that you are an ungodly person for having debt You just become ungodly if you choose not to pay off your debt We should pay it off. Amen If we owe someone something we ought to give it to them even if it hurts us when we give it Okay, why because it's better it's it's it's better to be right with God and to be a person of integrity uprightness Righteousness to swear to our own hurt than to be a person who just can't be dependable Okay, it's not reliable. All right, these are important qualities, you know And these aren't qualities that people like to talk about very often, you know They want to talk about how great of a soul winner people are and all the Bible knowledge that they have Well, why don't we talk about these little qualities that actually make make a big deal to God, okay the God makes a big deal of that really makes you a righteous person is When you vow even to your own hurt look what Ecclesiastes 5 4 says when thou vows to bow unto God Deferred not to pay it for he hath no pleasure in fools Pay that which thou hast vowed the Bible says so what is it saying here? It's telling us look obviously we should not bow Obviously we shouldn't just flippantly make Promises, but if you do you better make sure you pay it You better make sure you fulfill that vow that promise do what you said you were going to do Okay, be a person of integrity and look The greatest ability is dependability Is it not when you're able to depend on someone if they say they're gonna be somewhere? They say they're gonna do something you can mark it down, you know, cuz a lot of times Today, you know people's word is not worth much anymore to be quite honest with you You know, it's just and they know that their word is not worth much Okay You know, they know that if they say something that they're gonna do something they can just be you know I'm just I'm just not gonna hopefully that person forgets No, well, you know even if they forget you should still fulfill it Because at the end of the day you made a promise even before God and God heard that promise You should fulfill that be a person of integrity. Okay? Pay your bills pay off your debts. Keep your promises do what you know, you're supposed to do, you know I'm thankful like for example You know We had a piano we gave it to brother John and or I let him use it and I said I'll let you use it But you got to practice the piano because he said he wanted to practice the piano. Okay, and I'll say I'll let he's like I'll practice I say I want you to know how to play the piano You know this dude started playing like a month after in church, I don't know if it's cuz he's a Syrian or Or he got he already knew how to play or something. I don't know, you know, maybe he's just trying to I don't know what it Is but he but you know what? He kept his promise. I Said I want you to be I want you to be playing Christmas songs And this was a couple months ago. He's playing silent night You know, I would I would esteem that as being a person of uprightness and a person who who swore to his own hurt You know, I'm sure he's just like my fingers are hurting, you know Well, you know, he told me I got to play a Christmas song. I told him I would do it I don't know why I said I would do it by Christmas time, but I need to do it And you know what? He made it happen. Okay, this is integrity. This is dependability. This is important to the Lord He says he that putteth not out his money for usury This is a person who lends money and then expects interest in return now I don't I never really met a Christian who's ever who's ever done that you gotta be pretty wicked to do something like that You know, you know don't be acting like a Jews basically, let me just give you the condensed version don't don't you people around? Okay, that's what it is Psalm 112 5 says a good man showeth favor and lendeth. He will guide his affairs with discretion Okay, you know Proverbs 28 8 says he that by usury and unjust gain increase it to substance the Jews He shall gather it for him that will pity the poor, you know, and look here's the thing if you're gonna lend someone money and let's say they're the ones who vow the vow, right and They don't do it to their own hurt. They just never give you back the money. This is what I've learned from my previous pastor Previous to Pastor Anderson. I learned this that when you lend someone money just kiss it. Goodbye I'll never see it again. Just act like you'd never see it again because there's a big possibility that you may not Ever see it again And the reason you got to kiss it goodbye is because of the fact that if they promise to pay you back But they don't you never want to hold a grudge against someone You know, I'm just like where's my money? I Want my money, you know because then at that point then you're gonna be guilty of extortion Because you're like bullying a person because they haven't paid you, you know, just suffer yourself to be defrauded Okay, but here's the thing if you lend someone money in our church Okay, if they ask you hey, can I can can I give you can I get a hundred bucks, you know? I'm low on this whatever I'll pay you back if you are willing to impart that $100 into that person just say this don't pay me back Just keep it if you want to pay me back. That's fine. But if you never pay me back, I'm fine with it Here's the hundred dollars. Just kiss it. Goodbye Cuz better to keep your relationship right with your brethren, you know what I mean? And you get to be a blessing to someone Okay God will bless you for it. You want to make sure that you're never trying to be a Jew when it comes to money Understand I know that's funny, but it's the truth We never want to have a Jew mentality when it comes to money that we're trying to make money off of people and you know We're so tightly knit to money that even to the point where our relationships become affected because of it Okay, you know he that putteth not out his money to usury and just keep in mind It is God that giveth you the power to gain wealth the Bible says so even the money that you have that you're lending out God is the one who gave it to you So we ought to have the attitude not the hoarding attitude We need to have the attitude when God gives to us We use that those resources to give out as much as we possibly can to others to be a blessing He says nor taketh reward Against the innocent. Okay. This is dealing with a very wicked person Who is seeking mischief in order to gain something out of it, okay now later on in verse number four or excuse me verse number three says I'm sorry verse two. It says he that walketh uprightly work its righteousness and speak at the truth in his heart This is an important quality as well. What is that a person of honesty? Okay? Don't be a person characterized by lying Don't be a liar and I understand some cultures, you know, they just teach that lion is always okay As long as you come out winning or something. No, it's not okay Lying lips are an abomination unto the Lord the Bible says okay, and I'll give you an example of this You know, I have a Chinese sister-in-law and And she specifically taught us that the Chinese culture that in China lying is actually not looked down upon at all It's actually seen as a pretty strong quality Like a good quality in other words, like if you lie to someone it's only no I'm sorry. It's only bad if you get caught Lying it crazy. I know but they basically say look if you lie in order to advance your career You know to get gain or whatever it is good for you That's basically how they see it. The only time it becomes bad is that if you get caught for lying? Okay, and at that point shame on you because you're not a good liar Okay, this is wrong. This is wicked. You know, God is themes the person who speaks not just the truth with his mouth He speaks it in his heart as well. In other words. He has an honest heart. Okay, and This is a great quality to have because of the fact that if you're not a liar, you don't have to keep lying To cover up for yourself, right? You know when you lie once you need a multitude a web of lies to cover up for your other life How many you've ever met like a chronic liar? How many you are a chronic liar? I'm just kidding everyone though You know chronic liars I've I've had like chronic liars even in my family and Some people would just lie just to lie Not even to save themselves from anything or to advance and so they're just such liars They just lie because that's just part of their nature They are perpetual liars and I remember I've talked to people like this and it's just like You're lying. You told me something different And they're like did I tell you about that? I'm like, yeah, you did, you know because when someone lies it's like they forget who they told the lie to How many know what I'm talking about? You know you talk to people and they lie and then they they try to cover up and they forget that they told you the lie They said it to someone else. That's the problem of being liars. Just not very dependable, right? Better to just be honest and you don't have to worry about covering up. You just speak the truth at all times Speak the truth with your mouth speak the truth with your heart. Okay, and You know and don't don't give me this this stupid illustration Well, you know what if you know you you're you're giving a white lie to help someone out, you know My wife asked me do I look fat in this dress or something? You know and you see I say no not to hurt her feelings or something, you know, no don't lie Don't lie, okay, just say this look if she says I just say you know what? Don't ask me that No, I'm just kidding By the way, if you can't be honest with your spouse, there's something wrong with that, too You know, I mean if you guys can't be honest with yourselves and actually like, you know Kind of like joke around like there's something wrong with that. Okay, don't lie to your spouse either That should be the person you're honest with the most in a sense. Okay, and Because of the fact that you are one But the Bible tells us in Psalm 51 verse 6 behold thou desire is truth in the inward parts and in the hidden part Thou shalt make me to know wisdom So why is God interested in us being honest in our hearts because eventually with what's in our hearts comes out You know out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speak it The Bible says keep thine heart with all of diligence for out of it are the issues of life You eventually flesh out what is literally in your heart That's what's important to have a clean heart to clean your heart to be upright in your heart to speak the truth in your heart Okay, he goes on to say in verse number five Three, excuse me. He that backbiteth not with his tongue. What is this? This is a slanderous person So the person who speaketh the truth in his heart is abstaining from lying The person that backbiteth with his tongue is the one who takes those lies and uses it to to hurt people To slander people and look don't mix this up with criticizing people either I Criticize people all the time, but it's true If I give facts, that's not slander Slander is when you lie about someone when you make something up when you rail against someone and it's not true Right. That's where we got to make sure there we get our facts straight But this person is a person who backbites with his tongue he seeks Opportunity to slander people maybe it's for them to advance or maybe it's it's to Basically make themselves look better than the people that they're slandering. Okay He says nor doeth evil to his neighbor or taketh up a reproach against him Now look, this is really important too because look You know the backbiter is the one who slanders But it says nor doeth evil to his neighbor or taketh up a reproach against him, you know In other words, you should be a person who gives people the benefit of the doubt You're not just seeking to take up a reproach against your neighbor You know, I mean you live again next to someone who looks like a gang banger. They look like an unsavory person You shouldn't automatically label that person a rapper. Oh, this person is just far from the hope of salvation He's beyond the hope of salvation, you know Don't take up a reproach against your neighbor until you get the facts that that person is right a wicked person You know We should always give everyone the benefit of the doubt and like I talked about on Thursday unto the pure All things are pure but into them which are defiled and unbelieving is nothing pure but even their mind and their conscience is the file and that is in reference to the Pharisees who when they looked at the Cretans they saw them as always liars Evil beasts slow bellies when Paul and Titus saw the Cretans. They saw them as potential pastors They saw them as potential laborers for the Lord They saw a great work that can be accomplished there when the Pharisees saw it They saw something different why because they were unpure. These are the people they were backbiting with their tongue, right? They were slanderously reporting against the Cretans things that were not true They were doing evil to their neighbor and taking up a reproach against them, you know Don't look for a reason to get on your neighbors. Don't look for a reason to to, you know criticize You know a person you meet out so winning we should go in with the default setting that we love people Unless they give us another reason Otherwise reason to do so, okay This is the person look and if you do these things You will situate yourself in such a way that you will be the recipient of God's blessing This is who God looks to to bless. Okay He says he that walketh uprightly worketh righteousness and speaketh the truth in his heart He that backbiteth not with his tongue nor doeth evil to his neighbor nor taketh up a reproach against his neighbor now Keep in mind where we're talking about Okay, we're talking about people who are gonna be God. This is what God is saying the people who do these things Will situate themselves to be the recipients of my blessing. I'm gonna bless the people who do these things Now, can we subtract anything from this list? Should we ever subtract it? Can we say well, you know except for this part right here. No every single part of this list is Necessary to receive God's blessing, right? let's read verse 4 in Whose eyes a vile Person is content Think about that Now, what is that referring to there? What is content mean? Well, let me just read you the dictionary definition the feeling with which a person regards anything Considered mean vile or worthless to disdain to scorn the state of despising disgracing Okay, this is someone who actually Disrespects other people You know when you contempt someone it means you disrespect them you hate them You abhor them You despise them. That's what he's saying So he's saying here in Psalm 15 Who am I gonna bless who who shall dwell in the tabernacle? Who shall abide in the holy hill who shall not be moved from the position of God's blessing? Oh, oh just the guy who in his eyes a vile person is content What does that mean? Oh, you know the guy who hates vile wicked people We love everyone that's not what Psalm 15 tells me in Fact according to that type of theology You actually remove yourself From the position of being blessed by God You know you want to remove yourself from God's blessing you want God not to favor you your family your job Then go ahead and favor the vile person Favor the wicked people. Let me just say oh, you know favor the reprobates Those are vile people right? Because he's referring to reprobates here. That's what he's referring to because those are the only people that God tells us we should hate, right? Because the Bible says to love our enemies that we should be characterized by love and charity towards sinners So the exception to that rule would be a Vile person which is known as a hater of God a worker of iniquity a reprobate Okay, you know try to exit Jesus that People who well you know it's funny because I look this up on the internet See what people said about it like the commentary. They just completely ignore it they give all these paragraphs of Every other quality walking uprightly work. It's righteousness back by does not You know, but when it comes to this they just label it and then just skip it That doesn't fit my theology, I don't know what it means to Contempt someone who is vile. What does that mean? Well, I'll tell you what it means I'll tell you what it means in the Hebrew means to hate someone it means to hate vile people Don't deny it. It's right there and more specifically. This is important because in order for us to be blessed by God Right in order for us to dwell in his holy hill We need to despise them even with our eyes or then he's just like Hate these people I hate them with perfect hatred. Okay? You know the Bible tells us That we should not love those who hate the Lord Go to Psalm 139 and Look the the dictionary definition of this is to show disrespect To contempt someone is to despise them in such a way that you would actually disrespect them and amen to that Okay, you know, what do you think God meant in Isaiah when he said who shall stand with the burning fire Right Who's standing with the consuming fire when God is judging wicked people God is saying who shall abide With the burning fire in other words just saying I'm with him Burn him God Let God burn them quickly right The Bible says Jehu talking to Jehoshaphat when he teamed up with a wicked King by the name of Ahab said this shouldest thou help thee ungodly and love them. They hate the Lord Therefore is wrath upon thee from before the Lord. What is he saying? He's basically saying hey, you've removed yourself from the holy hill You have removed your you've you've deviated from the tabernacle You know, the Bible says you shall not be moved you were moved Why because you did not hate the person you do not despise the person you did not contend the wicked King Who hated God? Therefore what wrath is upon thee. So what do we see here? We see that when we do not hate vile people Not only do we not get God's blessing. We actually incur the wrath of God upon our own lives So it's not like God's saying. Okay. Well, I'm just not gonna bless you You know, if you want to take that route, that's fine. You just I'm gonna remove my blessings from you No, God's basically saying no now you've become my enemy Now you shall suffer with the unrighteous as well because God is no respecter of people Okay, look at Psalm 139 verse 21 Well, this is a great song to sing Amen, brother, Eric This is this originated here. Amen. I don't know. It wasn't this pianos the other piano This is David speaking here verse 21 says do not I hate them O Lord that hate thee and Not I grieve with those that rise up against thee and I want you to notice verse number 22 says I hate them with Perfect hatred. I count them mine enemies. Now. What does it mean by hating them with perfect hatred? Well perfect in the Bible is associated with completeness You understand like the perfect man is the complete man. Okay, let wisdom have a perfect work That means the complete work. So when David says that he hates them with perfect hatred. He's basically the same. I have a complete hatred So, how can we apply that to 2019? Well, you know the pastors who say well we should hate the sin But we should love the sinner You know, oh no, that's incomplete You're lacking something buddy. I Agree hate the sin. Absolutely. But according to the Bible we have to hate the reprobates. That's complete We have to hate sin We have to hate the reprobate we have to hate false religion we have to hate false prophets. It's got to be complete It can't be wanting. It can't be lacking anything And look we use this in tandem with the book of Matthew where it tells us to love our enemies This is not contradicting itself and I hate it when people bring that up Well, I love your enemies like seriously Is that the only verse you've ever memorized in your entire life that along with John 3 16, is that all you know? Well, God so loved the world Then he gave his only begotten Son. Is that the only thing you've ever memorized? Do you? believe John 3 16 in Spite of what we see here in Psalm 139 at the exclusion of one Psalm 139. Absolutely We need to both of them and they work in tandem Amen, and in fact, this one is associated with having God's blessing upon our lives. So in order for a person to be righteous In order for a person to be truly upright They contempt they abhor the vile person. Okay, and You know, this is uncomfortable for some people it's just like man to hate someone but you know The the reason why they kind of like flinch at that and they just started like seizure eating and like Why is it because they're just been inoculated with such a weak Christianity? they've been given this vaccination the spiritual vaccination of wussiness and sissiness and this Gandhi Christianity That has infiltrated churches and has completely negated what the Bible really says About certain things it's Jedi Christianity is what it is, right? Someone called me what is what is that little green freak say? Hey leads to suffering Fear leads to hate to the dark side Doesn't he say something like that? He gives like a long list of things Well, you Star Wars fanatics. Come on Marcos Yeah, yeah, don't make me call you up here bro, okay I just quote that thing verbatim You know, you've met that was like that. You know, that's your verse. Okay You know that that comes from like Jedi ism What they teach like hate is wrong. No ye that love the Lord hate evil Okay, and to say well God doesn't hate anyone then you know what you don't believe in hell Okay Go to Proverbs 28 Did I have you turn somewhere else that was it right? Yeah go to Proverbs 28 So You know, can we look at this and say okay. Well that church is not being blessed then That pastor is not being blessed Yes, we can Because he says in whose eyes a vile person is contend, right? So I can look at someone like Alan Dommely And say this person is wicked This person is not upright. He's not a righteous person He's just as wicked as the people who are he's defending And look, I know Alan Dommely. Okay, I come from the old IFP. He came to our church. We went out to eat He was just this Jack House wannabe And I'm I'm like dead serious about that. Okay, I Remember he when I was in Bible college He came to preach for us and everyone made this big deal about because he's he has this what this organization called the old Paths Journal, you know, he's like known as like the fundamentalist guy, you know The old paths because he he was just like brother house. He wouldn't even preach like brother house And I remember he came to our chapel service and he was preaching and he preached on beware of dogs right from Philippians chapter 3 and From Philippians chapter 3 and I remember being a biker. I was like, oh, yeah, I wonder what that me cuz I didn't know what that meant I was like, I'm glad he's saying that cuz I want to know what that means and he literally Preached the sermon about beware of dogs and they were like literally dogs that he was listening Like different dogs were like different points like the poodle the pit bull I'm not joking. I remember like I'm thinking like the poodles even exist back then Isn't that like a made-up dog? I Mean, didn't they like recently make that dog within the last whatever hundred or fifty sixty years or something like that And he literally preached that and I was like, I'm not getting anything from this sermon And I don't think of myself like well, I guess I got to be where like when I go soul winning Good. I don't get bit by dogs or something But I guarantee you that guy has never touched Psalm 139. He can't even touch Philippians 3. I Mean that that kind of stuff should make you mad When they just just destroy the Word of God in such a way with their with their exposition of foolishness but is it any surprise that this same guy is Defending Cameron Gio Vannelli that wicked vile faggot That filthy reprobate that Disgusting vile person who should just you know, what's that guy's name who hung himself or supposedly hung himself? Yeah, he should FC himself or someone should FC him Epstein Someone should Epstein him. Oh No, you know we should we should pray for those but we do pray for them Pray that they would just die a horrible death and look anybody who backs up faggots like that who molest children Who take advantage of the innocent? These are the same people who are not dwelling in a tabernacle. They're not abiding in the Holy Hill. In fact, they've been moved they're unrighteous people and Alan Dommely Alan dummy Is backing these people up openly Look if there's people who like believe like him, but they don't say anything about it. I prefer that just shut your mouth If you think Cameron Gio Vannelli is not a reprobate he's like righteous person you better keep your mouth shut You better shut your mouth But he and him he uses his platform To openly defend these people. Well, he didn't say in my name everyone knows who he's talking about There's no one faggot Popular fag right now in fundamentalism is Cameron Gio Vannelli Who is only gonna spend 90 days in jail for committing this wicked vile act? But it's okay because he's gonna spend all of eternity in a place called hell He's gonna burn in the lowest hell and I prayed to God that that would even happen today If you would go quick down into hell wife because we need to hate these people with perfect hatred Why because we want our church we want us as individuals to abide in the tabernacle and to dwell on the Holy Hill He said where is Alan Dommely? He's in the unholy Hill He's in the tabernacle of Moloch That's where he is He's been moved and look if people said well, I think he's saying, you know, he's not doing a good job Trying to convince us of that though Let me just say that I don't know about you man when you start when you start defending perverts Faggots and transvestites and you start siding with the sodomites. You're either just a little pussyfooter Or you're just as wicked as they are You know and these people who come up and they try to defend them You know why they're defending them because they don't want to get caught themselves. That's why He's wicked people, you know, Bob Gray senior this senile wicked old prophet You Know he's he's an example of this He's about person as well. And look I know Christians can become pretty bad, right? Christians can can beer off the road pretty bad and they can do some pretty stupid stuff, but never never perversion Never pedophilia never faggotry and the person who says oh, you know less we should fall to Oh, you just expose yourself. You little faggot You just expose yourself you little pedophile. Are you saying you don't want people to find what you have on your computer? The pride the child pornography that you have on your computer little faggot And look if you don't like that kind of speech then you're denying Psalm 15 where it says in whose eyes a vile person is contempt disrespected So it's not just a matter of hating them in our hearts the Bible says we just let it fly out the mouth as well We Let it fly out the mouth to expose these wicked faggots and that's exactly what they are They're a bunch of dogs who need to put a bullet in their head Somebody needs to put a bullet in their head and just destroy these wicked people. Oh You're inciting violence. Well, I'm sorry. Why don't you say that against him who's actually inciting violence in against the innocent? Why are you backing up the violator and not protecting the innocent whom that person violated? Something wrong with you Well, you know, I don't know. I just don't see it like that They look what Proverbs 28 4 says they that forsake the law praise the wicked. What does it mean to forsake the law? They've removed themselves from that tabernacle They're not dwelling in the holy hill. They've been moved right they have forsaken the law They're praising the wicked but such as keep the law contend with them. What does it mean? They fight against them? The Bible says in Psalm a proper seven to go go to Proverbs 17 Proverbs 29 27 says an unjust man is an abomination to the just and he that is upright in his ways an Abomination to the wicked. So what is the Bible telling us here? You know those who are unjust those who are vile should be an abomination unto us We should not try to cater to them Or try to back them up You know, and maybe they're safe people who are getting duped by this You're a little pussyfooter That's what you are. You need to get right with God. You need to get some stones You need to get some fortitude. You need to get some boldness in you and actually, you know having your core values the Bible So you actually live what you preach? I mean you claim to represent God God is a valiant God He hates all workers of iniquity You know, why aren't you like Jesus? I'm trying to be like Jesus Because Jesus hates all workers of iniquity I'm working on that Would help me to be more of a hateful person towards these reprobates Help me to have more Hatred to abhor them to that they in my eyes. There would be more vile and wicked that they would be condemned in my eyes That's what it means to be like Jesus No, we're talking about like the Jesus The you know, the Pantene Pro V light-skinned Caucasian six-foot-five dress wearing Jesus That's not my Jesus In fact, I don't even know what Jesus actually looks like As far as physically a person is concerned. I just know what he looks like based off of this Because what he looks like really doesn't matter to me what he said matters more Okay, see most of these people are concerned with what he looks like but they don't they can care less what he said They can care less What he actually said You know, well, you know, what would Jesus do take your stupid brace thing go thorn in the trash I'll tell you what would Jesus do you would burn them? That's what Jesus would do I'll tell you what Jesus would do. He would tie a millstone about their neck and lounge and just just mafia style Cast them into the depths of the sea That's mafia style right there You know, he doesn't put the cement on the feet. He just ties it about their neck and just Look at Proverbs 17 15 he that justifieth the wicked and Condemmit the just even they both are abomination to the Lord put in parentheses al-indomilee Put in parentheses Bob Gray senior No put in parentheses, Greg Neal Put in parentheses Jack Treiber Cuz you know this the West Coast doesn't really know anything about those weirdos over there other than camera Gio Vannelli But you know the weirdos over here come from North Valley Baptist Church and Yes, Golden State Baptist College Golden Gabe Baptist College Golden Calf Baptist College, you know and North Valley Baptist Church Run by pastor Jack Treiber Mr. Burns himself Right Who produces these weirdos and freaks transvestites and faggots Look folks fool me once shame on you fool me twice shame on me You know Mike Zachary was the first faggot that came out of that place Well, at least that was exposed I'm sure there's plenty more where that came from and then after him lo and behold Cameron Gio Vannelli You know comes out of that place as well. What happened with Mike Zachary? Well, he was discovered to having these these pervert relationships with the song leader son They moved to Lancaster Baptist Church another cesspool of sin type Church Another place that is departed from the tabernacle and from the Holy Hill they find out about it and they just move them to Lemon Grove, California With what's his name Doug Fisher? And you know, he's teaching a couple's class now because he's so knowledgeable about that, you know And then what happened? I mean North Valley's just just pumping those fags out like crazy Cameron Gio Vannelli, you know We need to be reminded this evening that these people should be vile in our eyes and they should be content We yeah, we ought to disrespect these people open Call them for the filth that they are The language though Do you have to use the word bag? I mean, what do you want me to use dog piece of crap? Vomit it's all the same thing There's no words that can express how wicked these people are I'm trying my best to live out in whose eyes a vile person is condemned without like cussing or something But Look you say well, you know, I don't really agree with that Okay, then remove yourself from the tabernacle and from the Holy Hill because if you're not gonna live that way You're not gonna get God's blessing God favors those who feel the same way he feels about these issues And look if you don't agree with me then after service come to me with Bible in hand and say well actually in my lexicon It says this And this is what I'll do I'll grab your lexicon and just Kobe right into the trash Or interpret this what's a different way to interpret this well, you know, it's not a vile person is what the vile person does That's not what it says it says the person The human being is The person who merits it is hatred right here And look I get it if you've never like believed this before and this is something that's new to you Yeah, we just need to grow in our hatred for the things that God hates. I Was in that same boat before where I didn't believe this before. Okay, you know people always tell me you didn't believe that before Yeah, it's called growing It's called learning new things Right. It's called following the way of righteousness You know and I just want to you know as a church to remind ourselves and look This is not all you're just hopping on this bandwagon because this is what the new IP always talks about well, not necessarily what I'm doing is Teaching my church because as a church if we're gonna dwell in the tabernacle and abide in the holy hill This is what God requires of us Okay, and we live in a day and age where there's the internet where these things are exposed and you know what when these things Are exposed we need to call it out and not be silent about oh, I'm just gonna take this neutral position Then you basically forfeiting you're basically throwing in the towel The Bible says contend with them. They they keep the law Contend with them. You can't take a neutral position when it comes to this Well, I'll let everyone else fight but not me then you forsaken the law You need to contend with them and let me say this dads. We need to lead that fight Because we need to fight hard because when we pass off the scene our children are inheriting that wicked perverse generation You Understand and if they inherit that generation and we don't teach them We don't teach them how to despise them They're gonna compromise and guess what? They're gonna be removed from that holy hill and that tabernacle You You You You You You You You You You I call my family my marriage on my children on our church here I pray that you do so help us to to think upon these things and often we think to be righteous We need to believe righteously the right doctrine, which is true But sometimes it's just the little things that matter as well being upright working righteousness speaking the truth in our hearts and even as something as uncomfortable as you know, Hating someone who is a reprobate, you know, if someone's not used to that that can be uncomfortable for them But I pray that you'd help us to as David and have that complete hatred that perfect hatred towards them That hates you and in order for us to remain in that holy hill. We love you so much Lord And we thank you and pray these things in Jesus name. Amen You
