GOD IS OMNIPOTENT/THE CHURCH is impotent

GOD is omnipotent meaning all-powerful but the modern church is impotent powerless why? Because God is not in that thing with its steeples, fog machines, and coffee bars, and paid musicians. Simple 

Knowing the Bible regurgitating information is not the same as knowing and being known by God read Matthew 7:22 Lord Lord didn't prophecy in your name and do greats works in thy name depart from me you who work iniquity. Read it for yourselves

Good morning, loved ones, and welcome to another episode of All Things God. This is your host, John. Hope you've been well. I took yesterday off. Not really took today off, but uh I'm learning more lessons. I am learning more lessons. And every day God speaks to me about something. And so I'm grateful, but at the same time, it's frightening because I'm I'm I'm out in front of the the congregation. You know, I'm I'm like those scouts that were sent in with Joshua and Caleb. And there's nothing that God has talked to me about with the word of God that the church has gotten right. I mean, they're wrong at er at every point, every single point. And it's because they don't have God. It's it's Second Timothy says it this way having a form of godliness having form having a form of godliness denying the power thereof. That is Second Timothy chapter three. And so what have they done to alienate themselves from God? Everything. I mean they don't even know God. They they're not even in the same camp as God. And it makes it harder on the people who don't know God. If you're like just some stranger walking down the street, you pass by a church, you think, oh, they worship God in there. They don't even know God yet. Doesn't mean that they won't ever come to know God. It's not condemnation. They're already under condemnation. They just don't know him yet. And it's every it's the same way every single every single church, it's the exact same way. Every denomination, Baptist, Methodist, Lutheran, Catholic, Episcopal, Protestant, especially the um, I shouldn't say especially, but including all of the um apostolic churches, all the Pentecostal churches, they they don't know God. They don't they haven't met him. Listen, when you meet God, it erases everything else. Everything else just falls by the wayside. Why? Because he is that he is. You know, when he said to Moses, I am that I am, this is what he meant. It does not matter what anybody says or thinks about it. I am that I am. There's nothing that you can say or do, or no opinion that you have about me that will change who I am. I I am that I am. That is his church also. I listen, somebody doesn't like me. Hey, I don't I am that I am. You don't like me? I'm that's tough. I'm not I'm not even capable of changing. I am that I am. I didn't even make myself this way. I am that I am. I am here very specifically to do two things. One is to lay the foundation for the church because it's on the wrong foundation. And two is to gather the bride for my master's son's wedding. And so my job is to get them ready, but they can't get ready until they have the right foundation. Revelation 19. Right? Revelation 16, 17 is Mystery Babylon. Revelation 18 is come out over my people. Then what? Revelation 19 is the wedding piece of the land. We can't have the wedding piece of the land, folks, without Israel. They are part of the church. My body is disjointed because his body is disjointed. Okay? We cannot have the wedding piece of the lamb. First, the one new man, then the wedding piece. What am I talking about? I'm talking about Ephesians 2. First, the one new man. That means Israel and the church become one man in Christ. There is no there is no church without Israel. There is, Tucker Carlson, there is no church without Israel. There is no church without Israel. I didn't say without Judaism. I didn't say without the Azkenazis. I said without Israel, the nation of Israel. The nation of Israel is very much part of the church. Why? God made a promise to Abraham that he seeks to fulfill. His plan for fulfilling that promise is to marry the two covenants that he has with man into one covenant, one body in Christ. Tucker, if you'd like to read that, it's in the book of Ephesians. It's also in the book of Romans. Look in the book of Ephesians, chapter 2. It's right there. It's also in the book of Romans. Look all the way from chapter 5 to 11, okay? And you'll see it. And you might have to have somebody explain it to you the way that the um eunuch had to have uh the scroll of Isaiah explained to him. Nothing wrong with that. But it's there. Anyway, that's not what I'm aiming to talk about today. Today I want to talk about money. I mean, I've been asking the Lord for, I don't know, a year now. How come the church is so in love with money? What's going on there? Oh, we gotta have it. It's a tool we use. No, it isn't. Just stop making excuses. I'm like, the Lord said right out of his own mouth, you can't love God and money. So what happened? So what happened exactly? Romans 1.25. They traded the truth for a lie. Romans 1.25. You can't blame the unsaved for this. You can't blame anybody but yourselves. I'd love to say it's all Kenneth Copeland and Jesse Plantis's fault and Joyce Meyer. It's not. You're in love with money, that's why you follow them. You're in love with money, and that's why you follow them, that's what makes them successful. You swallow their lives because they tickle your ears. And you want your ears tickled. I'm gonna tell you the truth. Now listen, the little book, Revelation 10, the little book, take and eat. The angel of the Lord said to John, take and eat the little book. I argued with Bash Minister one day. I'm not arguing with anybody anymore. The truth is the truth. Even if nobody believes it, the truth is still the truth. And a lie is a lie even if everybody has swallowed it. It's still a lie. Revelation 10, the angel of the Lord says to John, take and eat. It's going to be sweet in your mouth, it's going to be bitter in your stomach. Why? Because it's the truth. That is the truth. Why? Because the word of God is true. And the word of God is sweet when we all hear it, when we all hear it, but then when the discipline comes with it, that's when everything turns bitter. Look at the book of Isaiah, chapters four and five. What happened? God loved the children of Israel, loved them. And then he tried to correct them, discipline, and it produced what? Bitter grapes. Why? Because of the discipline. I'm telling you what a mistake that they made. It caused them to go into dispersion, right? Listen, the book of Jeremiah clearly lays out that God's judgment brought them back around. Because in Jeremiah 3, he divorced them from being adulterers. But in Jeremiah 31, he says, Come here, my virgin bride. Come here, my virgin bride. Yeah, he turned them into virgins because of his judgment. So if they'd have done that in Isaiah, who knows what would have happened? I don't know. I think they probably had to go through the experience. Don't think that the church doesn't need God's discipline. If you think that you you're above God's discipline, you've already missed the boat. This is what the word says. He disciplines every son that he draws near, even scourges those who draws close to himself. Are you above being disciplined by God? Are you? I asked you a question. Are you above being disciplined by God? If you think that you are, then you're there's he's you're not one of his sons. Go on about your business, go see your father, the devil. Get on out of here. I'm not gonna waste my time with you. If you're above being disciplined by God, you're listening to the wrong series. Go on your way, go straight to hell, do not pass go, do not collect $200. And there's no there is no helping you. Why? Because you're a son of rebellion, just like Satan. And go on, your father's the devil. Go on about your business. I ain't gonna bother with you. I got work to do with the people that are going to heaven, they're gonna be part of the bride. I ain't gonna mess mess around with you, I ain't gonna bother with you. I ain't got the time to waste. Time to waste, oh my gosh. So I told you last year that the Lord took me to heaven and I got to see the um birthplace of the souls and the new Jerusalem and the throne. And then he took me to the battlefield. And when I looked at the battlefield, I thought I was looking at light and darkness. I was looking at light and darkness, but I misunderstood it. The Lord had to show me just yesterday what it meant. The Lord was actually pushing back time. I could see the light prevailing against the darkness. I was like, right on. Yay! I begged God to take the darkness out of me that that night when I came back from that vision or visitation. I don't even know what it was. I know that I left my body and I went to heaven. And by the time I got back, I was laying on my back, scratching at my stomach, begging him to take all the darkness out of me. Anyway, so what he told me yesterday is that what he's doing is pushing back time. Because if he doesn't, if he doesn't shorten the days of our tribulation, none will be saved. And you guys are, listen, we are in such a mess. The church is in such darkness that we don't even know God yet. 99% of the church hasn't even met God yet. I told you, Romans 1.25, they've exchanged the truth for a lie. Why do they do that? Because in order to, in order for the church to become prosperous and the authority on God, they had to mimic the things of God. How do they do that? They use money to do that. So they can't perform the miracles that God performs. I will raise the dead. You want me to? I'll come to your city and raise the dead. I will bring the pillar of cloud and the pillar of fire with me, so that you know that God is the one working through me. I'm handicapped. It can't be me. It isn't me. Don't you get it? It isn't me. It's him and me. This is the way it was designed to be. I'll be glad to do that. The church can't heal the lepers and the lame and the blind. They can't. He can't. The church is impotent. You know what impotent means? It means they can't. They're shooting blanks. And so God is omnipotent, meaning he is all powerful, but the church is impotent, which means no power. That means that the two have nothing in common. God is not in the church. The second century, when um when then the elders took over, and then the third century, when Constantine made Christianity the state religion, and he became the all-powerful authority on this thing. This is the birth of the Roman Catholic Church. Okay? This is this is where the church went straight to hell in a handbasket. Straight to hell. I'm gonna tell you why. Because persecution is fertilizer to the church. When the first century, when the church was persecuted, how many people were added? Thousands. Once it became the state-sponsored religion, there was no more fertilizer. They stopped growing and they started what? Regurgitating information. Regurgitating misinformation is what they did. And there was no power and authority in the church to do anything. I will take my staff out to the river and part it for you if that's what it's going to take to get you to believe that God lives in me, that God is alive and all powerful. I'll take my staff to the river and part it. I live right on the banks of the Wabash River in Terre Hodge, Indiana. I'll stop. I will reverse the flow of that river to show you that God lives in me, so that you can come to him and get out of the church. Get out of the church. They are impotent. God is omnipotent. The two have nothing in common. Come out of my people. Revelation 18, 4. So in Acts, I think it's Acts 2 or 3, there's a lame man, he asks Peter for money. Peter said, I ain't got no money. He said, Silver and gold have I none, but such as I have I can give unto you. In the name of Jesus Christ, rise up and walk. And he healed the lame man. So he didn't have any what Peter, I don't have no money. All I have is Jesus Christ, but I could heal you. And that's exactly what he did. So the church doesn't have that option. So all they can do is they can dig you a well, they can they can help you with food. They can buy things for you. Why? Because their God is money. It's not God anymore. Their God is money. That's why they got to keep it coming in. Every 15 minutes ask for money. They got money in a bank, it ain't enough. Why? Because we've got to prove to people that God's with us. God is not money. Listen. Read Romans 1.25. They are they've traded the truth for a lie. The truth being God and the lie being now they they serve the creation instead of the creator. What's the creation? Money. Anyway, so come out of her, my people. You don't need to give God. God don't want any of your money. He don't need it. If God wanted money, he'd just tell you, go down and get that fish. He'll spit out a couple coins if we need a couple coins. I mean, isn't that what Jesus said to Peter? Go catch a fish. We need the temple tax. Go catch a fish. And the fish spit out exactly the amount of money that Peter needed to cover the temple tax. God don't need your money. God don't want your money. Put that thing away. Put that church behind you. Lay on your face before God. Invite him to lead God and direct you. He will. Just be willing, and God will lead you into things, places you ain't never seen. God's God is the most amazing. He you money. I could go buy a car or I could go build a house with money. I was a contractor for 50 years. I've done both many times. But the things that God can do, God can clear your conscience by forgiving you of your sins. And everybody I've ever met is afraid of dying. Why? Because they've got a guilty conscience. They still have shame, guilt, and condemnation. They're under condemnation. The weight of their sins. The church cannot relieve you of the weight of your sins. They're trying to by for example the Catholic Church come to confession, give, give, give, give, give, give, give, give, give, give. Buy, buy some relief from your torment. Well, all churches do that. All churches. Every church. Volunteer, give. That will relieve your conscience. I know a man who can set you free from your conscience. I know a man who can do that. And you won't fear death. I don't fear death. Come, come bring it. I'm ready. Anytime you're ready, let's go. Hey, to death is gay to die is gay. The only reason I'm even here anymore is just for the sake of the church. So they can prepare the bride. I've got work to do. I don't clear my conscience by it. Yesterday I took the day off and I was like, I didn't give a shit. I'm not bound by anything. It's an amazing place to be unplugged from the whole mess. I still go through my own tribulations, of course. Tribulation is for my growth, for everybody's growth. So I don't I I don't resist it. The word says um despise not the chastening of the Lord. Let's talk about that for a second. Why would it say that? What's God trying to produce in us through chastening us? Obedience. What do Adam and Satan have in common? They're both rebellious. God's got a plan, Satan decides he's going to rebel against it. God's got a plan, Adam decides he's going to rebel against it. You want to be a son of the devil or you want to be a son of God? Because if you're going to be a son of God, he's going to discipline you until you produce fruit of a son, obedience. The Lord, it says the Lord learned obedience to the things he suffered. So you don't think he was disciplined by God? Well, I'm thinking to myself, why would Jesus even have to be disciplined? I mean, he, you know, we didn't do anything wrong. He was still in flesh, and he still had to teach his flesh to be controlled by his spirit. So don't despise the chastity of the Lord. Welcome it. It's going to produce fruit, fruit of obedience. And we want to be obedient children to the Lord. That's the whole purpose that we have. That's why we are being conformed to the image of the Son. What is the image of the Son? Well, it says in at least three or four different places. Um I know it says in Colossians, it says in Corinthians. Jesus is the image of the unseen God. That's what it says in Colossians 1.15. That means that in Genesis, when we were b we were created in the image of God, we're created in the image of Jesus. But not just in his image, but we're being conformed into obedience. Why? Because in obedience we will bring glory to the name of God and to his son Jesus. It's I mean literally that that simple. Obedience brings divine health. So our obedience the word also says obedience is better than sacrifice. What what does that mean? We make sacrifices when we go to church. How? We throw money at the altar, we dance around it, we dress up, put on your Sunday best. I'm making a sacrifice. Why? Because I don't believe that God loves me for the sake of me being his child. So I make sacrifices. Plus, my conscience is not clear. I'm still trying to atone for that condemnation that's on me. God can remove that, I'm telling you. Guilt, shame, and condemnation are because we've all been eating from the tree of knowledge of good and evil. The same tree that God told Adam, Son, the day you eat of that is going to be the day that you die. In the center of the garden in the book of Genesis, there are many forms of trees. Of course, God created all the trees. But in the center of the garden there are two trees, the tree of life and the tree of death. The tree of death is the tree of knowledge of good and evil. Because God said to Adam, The day you eat of that, you will surely die. Adam lived to be 930 years old. Why didn't he die? He did die. What happened? We are two people. We are flesh and we are spirit. That day Adam's flesh became irreconcilable to God. Irreconcilable. God couldn't reconcile it. Jesus said that I was able to save all, all but the son of perdition. Who's the son of perdition? Our flesh. So God was right when he told Adam you're going to die. That means that your flesh is going to be going is destined for destruction now, son. And everybody after you, every human being on the planet Earth, is destined for destruction now because of your rebellion. Wow. That's an expensive lunch, isn't it? Every human being, how many billions of us have there been? And we're all destined for destruction, our flesh is least we be born again. That's why Jesus said to Nicodemus in John chapter 3. You must be born again. Adam's soul and his spirit didn't die that day, his flesh did. And God worked a way into it where the tree of life, who is Christ, went and paid for his sins so that he could retrieve his soul and his spirit. So there is something called the second death. The second death is where our soul is killed. The first death is our flesh, it's appointed unto man to die. That's the first death. That's our flesh. All of us are going to die one day. But the second death is something that we can escape. The second death is a death of the soul. And that can only be done in Hades. Hell was not created for humanity, though. It was created for Satan and those who follow him. So don't be somebody who follows Satan. How do you follow Satan? You don't resist the temptations that he offers you. You let your flesh have its way. You do whatever, do whatever feels good, whatever it wants. We're all guilty of it. We're born into it. We have to learn to tame it. We crucify our flesh. Jesus hung on the cross. He didn't crucify himself on the cross. Somebody else crucified him. But before he went to the cross, he crucified his flesh. Read in John chapter 4 when Jesus is in the wilderness being tempted by the enemy. The enemy said to him, Hey, look, there's a stone, turn it to bread. And Jesus said, No, man doesn't live by bread alone, but every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God. So Jesus was telling him, No, I'm crucifying this flesh. He had already been fasting for 40 days. And I don't know if you've ever fasted from anything for 40 days. It's a good practice to have. Fasting is a good practice to have, but it's really we need to learn how to tame our flesh. It needs to come under subjection. And that's a good place to start fasting. If you're not good with fasting from food, start with something like um your favorite TV show. Or like for example, uh in the month of February I fasted from sweet tea because I really, really enjoy sweet tea. And I don't like that I really, really enjoy it. I mean, I know that sounds weird, but I I don't like that I really, really enjoy it. I want to subject my flesh to my spirit. And so I've got to tame it. So I fasted for the month of February in order to tame my flesh. Now here I am two months later and I'm thinking about doing it again. And it's just a good practice. So if you can't fast from everything, I have in the past, one time I went nine days without food or water. And I was still working in c concrete and in the hot floor of the sun. That wasn't a good idea because it's just that wasn't physically a good idea. Yeah, I was young and and just trying to do my best at that time. I didn't know God. I was still making sacrifices. Anyway, my purpose in talking to you today is I was going to talk about money. I wanted to tell you why the church is so eager to have it. Because it is their idol, it is their God. That's how they perform all their miracles is using money. They can buy you groceries, rent you a house, get you a tire put on your car, and tell you it's God. But it's not, it's the church, which is still eating from the reason that they don't have Jesus Christ is because they've never eaten from the tree of life. They're still eating from the tree of knowledge. When you start eating from the tree of life, your whole life changes. And the boldness that should come with being a Christian is part of why? Because you're filled with the Spirit. Get on your face before God and He will meet you there. That's the honest God's truth. Alright, I think I'm gonna end this because I don't want to go too long, it's already 25 minutes. Alright, have a great day. I love you. Bye.
