You Are Here! Pt. 2 - Christ-Teenth (The Awakening)
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Freedom can be declared on paper and still never reach the people it belongs to. That’s the tension behind Juneteenth, and it’s the same tension I’m pressing into with what I call “Christ Teenth” the awakening to what Jesus actually finished at the cross. If you’ve ever felt like you’re striving for acceptance, stuck in shame, or living like an orphan in a faith that promises sonship, this conversation is a hard reset on identity in Christ.
We walk through the gap between legal freedom and lived freedom, starting with the real history of Juneteenth and the two-and-a-half-year delay between the Emancipation Proclamation and the news arriving in Galveston. Then we lay that alongside “It is finished” as God’s emancipation proclamation over humanity. I talk about Adam and the death cycle, how people can inherit patterns they never chose, and why “born again” is less about joining a club and more about waking up to the Spirit’s reality at the deepest level of belief.
From there, we get practical and confrontational about how bondage can rebrand itself. Sharecropping becomes a picture for what happens when people are technically free but still controlled through systems, debt, and lack of language. I connect that to religion and mind renewal, using scriptures like Romans 5, 1 Corinthians 2, Acts 3, and Acts 26 to highlight the message many of us never heard clearly: forgiveness is real, inheritance is available, and the mission is to open eyes and turn people from darkness to light.

Welcome And Core Message
SPEAKER_00Welcome to Identity Crisis, where we're dedicated to awakening people to the identity, inheritance, and purpose that belong to every believer in Christ. Here we renew minds, restore truth, and awaken sons and daughters to the reality that they are not orphans striving for acceptance, but heirs invited into the fullness of God's kingdom. And remember, you're not random, you're royalty. Welcome, family, to the Identity Crisis Podcast. I'm your host John, and we're going to get into some really good stuff today.
Why Christ Teenth Matters
SPEAKER_00We're going to be discussing Christ 10th, the awakening. And this is very apropos coming off of last week. We celebrated in our nation Juneteenth. And we'll get into a little bit more what Juneteenth is for those who don't really know. And a lot of people just understand it's a celebration of when these slaves in the South recognize that they were free. But it's it goes a lot deeper, and we're gonna we're gonna get into that uh a little bit a lot deeper.
Your Birthright As God’s Image
SPEAKER_00So so but I do want to speak a little bit about you know the podcast as we started it last week. It was the introduction, and the subject was you are here, it still is today. This is a continuation of that subject where we are locating where we are in the timeline uh historically, where we're seated in heavenly places in Christ Jesus as a species, people, as a species we are now. People that don't realize that, or people that say that folk don't believe, they don't uh they you know don't ascribe to the faith, they are not part of uh Christianity, or however you identify and categorize people based on their belief system is is a very sophomoric and incomplete way of looking at anyone. We are all made in God's image and likeness. If you are a person, if you are a human, you are made in the image and likeness of God. That is your your species, that is your birthright, that is who you are. Now, whether you understand that or not is a totally different conversation and topic. But you any those of us who have been awakened to that reality are duty bound to see each other in that light and in that perspective. But positionally, you're you've been gathered in Christ. Just like we were all once in Adam, Christ is considered the last Adam. And if you're on the north side of the it is finished declaration that Christ gave on the cross, then you were gathered from that moment. Everyone that was born that had not yet been born is now being born into that bloodline, and everyone who was already born had to be, uh, if you will, born again. They were conscious, they were alive doing this, they went there they're crossing over from death to life in that first generation that experienced that.
Adam’s Death Cycle And Learning Death
SPEAKER_00It's just like the ones who uh died in Adam. The people Adam and Eve were alive when they died spiritually, and they had to cross over into the death cycle, and they experienced life, they knew what it was to have eternal life, they knew what it was like to be alive unto God and feel no shame and be fully innocent and and be righteous and be just like God. They understood that. And they ate of we know the story of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, and and they fell in that rebellion, and they crossed over from life to death, but they had to learn death, they didn't understand death, they didn't know what it was, and they, for lack of a better term, they by faith had to enter into death. You know, they had to be be persuaded and brought into that reality because they had already, they had experienced that life prior to that event. So they had to be taught in that way. You wonder why people lived to be 900 and and 700 and 800 years old in the beginning. It they they were meant to live forever as we are as we were, as being a species made in God's image and likeness, being his children. But when they crossed over to the death cycle, it took time for them to learn death and learn how to die. So it took, you know, years, hundreds of years for that to really, really get into their genetics and their DNA and get into that level. But people that were born after Adam and Eve and on their children, they were born into the death cycle. So um, but the epigenetics of the life that their parents lived prior to that, it was just in them. So they they still didn't fully understand death at the molecular level, if you will, you know. So they lived very quite long. But now, as as society has gotten proficient in death and taught in it and very versed in death, we no longer understand. We're so far removed from that life of God that it just is it's epigenetically passed on to us, it's just in us. We just those things have been turned off, those genes that that that perceive and understand the eternal life of God. So now we have to be taught into that. But our our parents, our forefathers, and all of those them who were living during the time of Christ, when he did the it is finished proclamation, everyone that was that was alive at that time had to now cross over from death to life. And they had to learn that by faith. They had to cross over into that. They they had to be born again. People who were born after that are just born into the salvation reality and inheritance that Christ brought. So God gathered us all in Christ, just like we were once all in me myself. I was never in Adam. You know, when people say, Well, I was in Adam, and then when I gave my life to Christ, I then so you put yourself in Jesus. No, we know that's not true. Jesus put us into that into himself, he gathered us into himself. I was never in Adam. If you're on this side of the It Is Finished Declaration, and you were born on this side, you were never in Adam. Never. You've always been in Christ. The problem is you were never taught that. And you live out of the out of out of the reality of your heart, is where the life springs forth. You know, we were taught, Solomon said, guard your heart with all diligence because out of it flows the issues or the boundaries or borders of life. So we weren't it wasn't guarded, and so we weren't taught it. So we are are kept being taught the original Adam order, and and we're living and dying according to that reality. We're being, or should I say, we're being born into and dying according to that reality because we're not being taught the real truth about who we are
Born Again As A New Reality
SPEAKER_00in Christ. Jesus was talking to people when he used the term born again, he used it once, and he was talking to a man that was a scholar in the um Jewish culture, and he understood what Jesus was saying. He tried to challenge Jesus in a literal sense, like, can I enter into my mother's womb and be born a second time? And Jesus, like, come on, man, you know better than that. You're a master teacher in Israel. You know, come on, stop. That this born of flesh is flesh, man. I'm talking about being born of the water and the spirit. It was the spiritual death that caused us to physically die. And it's going to be the spiritual rebirth that will cause us to physically live. And but we have to be taught it. It has to be an expectation, it has to be something that gets down at the molecular level. It's not just the blood that Jesus shed for our redemption, but it's the bloodline that he brought us into through his salvation. And that is what we're supposed to be, have been taught since then, over 2,000 years ago. And because we haven't been, we're still experiencing that that original adamic reality, which is not even a part of our person anymore. This is why John taught that Jesus is the light that lights every man that comes into the world. That means everyone is born into the world, has been illuminated to the life of Christ, but it has, but we haven't been taught that. So it has not become a part of our experienced reality. And that is a very um, how can I say, it is very unfortunate, you know, for the generations again that were born after that emancipation proclamation of Christ on the cross when he said it is finished. And that is going to lead us to uh why I am calling this uh actually Christ 10th, because it is a literally a parallel of what the enslaved people, the black uh people in the United States uh were experiencing during that time of what we uh just celebrated last week called Juneteenth.
Juneteenth Explained In Plain Terms
SPEAKER_00Now, I'm gonna I'm gonna read something to you because I have to find I have to keep myself disciplined instead of just you know going off into just various things uh when I talk about this subject matter because it's so many parallels that I can stop and get into each one of them scripturally, break them down, and do all of these types of you know solidifications scripturally for what happened. But, you know, as Jesus, you know, taught parables, this is a comparable, if you will. And as they say now, if you know, you know. But I'm gonna uh just give you this of what Juneteenth was and what we really celebrated about it. So listen to what Juneteenth actually is. And yes, I I did an AI uh study with this, and then it was so much information. I said, listen, we gotta compress this into something that's very short, and uh and it has to be something that's concise, but it's gotta be short. So this is just a quick breakdown, and we'll get into some other things in just a bit. So Juneteenth, this is our nation, just celebrated Juneteenth, and we did last week, last Friday, which was June 19th, which is an acknowledgement of when a large group of black citizens in the South, particularly in Texas, and more specifically, Galveston, Texas, were finally informed they'd been freed from slavery. On June 19th, 1865, Union troops in Galveston, Texas, announced that enslaved people there were free. Keep in mind this was more than two and a half years after the Emancipation Proclamation had been signed into law by Abraham Lincoln on January 1st, 1863. This delay matters because it shows the legal freedom did not reach everyone at the same time, especially in places that were still under Confederate control. Juneteenth is often called a second Independence Day because it represents the moment when emancipation became real for one of the last large groups of enslaved people in the country. It is also a reminder that freedom is not a single event, but a hard-fought process often shaped by war, policy, and resistance. The deeper context is that Juneteenth is not just about one announcement in Texas, but about the gap between legal freedom and lived freedom here in the United States.
Christ’s Emancipation Proclamation Parallel
SPEAKER_00Now, I'm gonna stop and and get into this comparable uh that I'm calling Christ Teenth, because it it is it is very eerie how it mimics this June the Juneteenth historically. So you have a group of uh, you know, the president Abraham Lincoln, he announces a he signs the Emancipation Proclamation, signs it into law on January 1st. It was on a New Year's Day in 1863. So it is now law, it is illegal to own slaves. Now, mind you, they did not have social media, they didn't have regular media, they didn't have radio, they had nothing. Everything had to go forth by messenger and had to be taken, you know, telegrams and things like that. So it it was gonna take a little bit of time, even for people who were in closest proximity to get this information. But it took two and a half years to make it to Galveston, Texas. And the reason why is because it was uh unoccupied by the Union through secession, you know, people that were um states that were pulling out of the Union or trying to divest themselves from being part of the, you know, the United States. And this whole thing was fought. It was a civil war fought because people wanted to keep slaves, you know, from it. The war was between people who were withdrawn from the nation, and that's the reason why they were coming out of the union, because they wanted to keep their slaves. This conversation was being had that black people were people, you know, just like you. They should have the same equal rights just like you. They they have a free, you know, not a free, but a you know, a civil uh equality to own land and have, you know, and to be part of the economy, just like you. And there were people that did not, there were slave masters that absolutely rejected that notion. I mean, the the economy that was built on slavery, I mean, come on, man. This was this was free money on the backs of other people. And you want to take that away? And so, you know, it started a war, a civil war that literally killed six. They're they're estimating, and the records obviously can't be kept as good as we could now. Anywhere from 620 to 750,000 people died sit on on U.S. soil fighting this war over if you should be able to or not to enslave other human beings made in God's image and likeness. Come on. This was this this was real, this is part of our history, people, and it wasn't too long ago. You're talking about four generations ago. If if you if you want to look and use a biblical motto of a generation being 40 years, this happened 160 years ago. So you're talking about four generations, and which is not really that far, you know, from an uh anyway, I'm not gonna get into that, but this is uh a thing that was being this was celebrated when you know now that that was an actual event in history, that this these people, our ancestors, were enslaved a whole nother two and a half years uh after it was illegal for them to be in that position. And it's worth a celebration. That's why they call it a second, like a second independence day, from the one that we're getting ready to celebrate next week, with this called, you know, the 4th of July. Um this is this is a very it's a lot of hypocrisy linked to it when you think about it, from when uh Independence Day is being celebrated, when we broke away from Britain, but you don't want to celebrate, you know, this happened internally within our nation when the black people were free from being enslaved to uh the the Caucasian Americans, you know. So this it's very hypocritical to celebrate the Fourth of July, the declaration of our independence as a as a nation, as a free nation, and you won't celebrate the the declare the emancipation proclamation of a of a freed people that was being enslaved by those who celebrate a declaration of independence as a free nation. But then we won't celebrate with a people that had an emancipation proclamation of being free people. So you'll put it being a free nation, you know, as a land, as a people to be able to have our own stuff, and you can't celebrate that. You can celebrate on a m on a macro level, but you can't on a micro level with this group of people that experienced that exact same situation uh at your hands. So, you know, I'm not making this an us against them type of situation. I'm talking about a celebration of the same sort. People are gonna just celebrate and set off fireworks and everything nationally, and and you find it difficult to celebrate with these people, you know, who celebrating this from ethnically. It's just it's it's a very asinine, you know, ideology, you know, that we that we still hold here in in this country. But uh again, I'm not making this us against them. It's it's us, us as a not just a nation, but I'm talking about us as a species when it comes to the emancipation proclamation that Christ made on a cross over 2,000 years ago about our declaration of freedom, and how we've been emancipated out of the bondage of sin, and we have been freed, and we're able to now experience an inheritance in Christ and the life of Christ, but it's not being taught, it's not being communicated to this people, although it happened over 2,000 years ago. Same way these people were still being enslaved when they were set free two and a half years prior. And they're still the economy is still being, you know, uh, you know, fueled on their backs, uh, they're still being beat, they're still being mistreated, they're still being treated like, you know, just above an animal level, uh being fed all types of, you know, just things that are not shouldn't even be, you know, fed to them. And they're free. They're citizens. They actually their citizenry is the same as yours. They've been set free and they have no clue. And no one's telling them. The one who do the ones who do know are not telling them. And this and this is this is very Similar to what's happening now. And a lot of people are not didn't tell them it wasn't malicious. You know, I mean, we're getting past just the maliciousness of having slaves, but it wasn't malicious to not tell some people because even the slave masters, some of them were ignorant to it and didn't know that the president had signed this into law. So they were going on about their business, you know, ignorantly. And the reason why I identify that is I don't want people to think that I'm trying to just blanketly put everyone under the same scope, you know, that everybody had the same heart. Like that. Some people were in the South were just having slaves because this was what it was was. It was the reality. This is if you were going to have a workforce, this is the people that you get to do it. So they were just under that going along, you know, because it was just the societal norm. Uh, but there were manumissions that existed long before Emancipation Proclamation and manumissions was private landowners could free slaves. Um, but then there were uh legal press, you know, pushbacks on that back then too. So, you know, we're talking about it being done at a at a federal legal level. So we're not talking about individual people's hearts and and you know, and just lumping everybody into the same bag. We're not talking about that. We're talking about at a legal governmental level that it was against the law to own slaves after the emancipation proclamation was signed into law. Same way when Christ said it is finished, it was illegal for mankind to still be seen as a sinful, fallen creation. And this was not only, it was at that point Jesus Christ gave the emancipation proclamation of all humanity, but it was when he died, paid the price for that in his own blood, because there was there were some other things that needed to be transacted spiritually to make this thing uh have force. Uh again, the proclamation, you know, the emancipation proclamation was signed, it bent legally on paper, it was now against the law. But now you have to enforce the law practically. And Jesus did that when he died, and then he raised from the dead, showing that all power in heaven and earth was now his, and now he's going to enforce these this law of freedom across the whole cosmos. He is going to do that. And his disciples were people that let's just say they were union representatives of the kingdom of God. They were going out to preach that message, they were going out to proclaim this emancipation, that you are free. They weren't going out to preach hell and heaven, they were going out to preach the kingdom of God is here, the government of God has been returned. The Holy Spirit, the person who in the Godhead who governs that that liberality is now been poured out upon all flesh, and all men are now counted holy to God. If that wasn't the case, the Holy Spirit could not be poured out upon all flesh. So all flesh, just like God concluded all flesh was under sin and were in bondage to sin and were lost, he can he had to include them, he had to include all mankind under that, so he could redeem all of mankind and make all men righteous. Read Romans 5 through the lens of the Christ teenth reality in comparison with Juneteenth. But you gotta understand Juneteenth, if this is really gonna be able to apply wisdom and understanding to you. So here it is: man is free, completely free. Satan knows that. Um, in 1 Corinthians 2, it literally says, Paul said, had the princes of this world known, they would have never crucified the Lord of glory. You gotta understand the significance of that statement. You can't just read over that. It says that had the princes of the, let's just go and read it so we can have understanding and insight to this in a very real way, scripturally.
If Darkness Knew It Wouldn’t Crucify
SPEAKER_00Let's let's let's drill it home. So in 1 Corinthians 2, let's just start at um how at verse 6. Paul says, Howbeit we speak wisdom among them that are perfect, yet not the wisdom of this world, nor of the princes of this world, this system, this fallen system that has been set up, this enslaved system, enslavement, which all men were under, not an ethnicity of any color. June, don't get it twisted. Juneteenth and Christeteenth is a comparable. But the reality is when you're dealing with the Christineth level, all men were enslaved to sin and bondage. And this whole system was set up on that, that all men were slaves. So that's all ethnicities were enslaved by the devil and by the enemies in the kingdom of darkness, spiritual, spiritually. And he said, so he said, Howbeit we speak wisdom among them that are perfect, yet not the wisdom of this world, nor of the princes. And he tells them perfect means mature, fully complete, people who have understanding. But nor he says, but not the wisdom of this world, nor of the princes of this world, this system that come to naught, that comes to nothing. But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, even the hidden wisdom which God had ordained before the world unto our glory, our glory, humanity, mankind, which none of the princes of this world knew, for had they known, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory. This statement is literally saying, had we known, we would have never done it. Because what we did, the repercussions of it, is so far reaching that it would have just been good to just deal with Jesus, even though Jesus was kicking our John Brown hind parts from one end of the you know of Jerusalem to the other and would have done it anywhere he went in the world, but it wasn't just him being free, a free-born son of God. It was about bringing us all into that reality. And then he did it. And then when they realized what they had done after the resurrection, like, oh my God, we just set the whole species of man free to operate as as who they're according to their birthright, as being sons and daughters of God. So if I know this, and now I know I legally have no right to any of them, what will I do? If I was him, I'd do the same thing that the slave masters did in their time. They okay, they're free, but they don't they don't really, they don't own anything, they don't have any land. I've had it all locked down, but now it's their inheritance, it's their birthright, but it's still under my control right now. They they don't know how to operate this way. So, like Jesus did, you know, they they saw it, they heard it, but they don't know it practically. So what so I always say if I can't unspill the milk, if I can't unscramble the eggs, I gotta come up with another plan. And he did it just like the enslaved the the slave masters did after the uh you know it was known now through all of the nation that the slaves were now free.
Sharecropping Religion And Mental Bondage
SPEAKER_00They said, okay, they invented sharecropping. Oh, you do have shared, you know, rights with us. Uh, but this is the land. So work the land. You already know how to work it, and we'll pay you and we'll give you wages and we'll help you build you a little house, you know, and this and that on the prairie, you know, and all of that. We'll just and everything will be good, you know, and and you're talking about a people who've been enslaved. They don't know what it's like to even be free, to have their own land. Although there was uh an agreement that was made that supposed to give them 40 acres and a mule that is just an that is just a a starting point, you know, to give them some land to work and and and and a beast of burden that can help them work the land so they can start becoming economically strong and viable on, you know, now that they're free. That was the arrangement. That was pulled off the table quickly, uh, because there were slaves that'd be former slaves, now free people that were doing that, that had actually got some of that promise, and they were working the land, and it was prospering, and they were, you know, they were growing, and that was changed. And and and then the deception came in, and then okay, now you work this land, and it'll it's still ours, but you'll get the harvest, but you got to pay us out of it. And then to work the land, you had to use, you didn't have any tools, you didn't own anything, so you gotta you gotta lease our tools, and it's still our land, so you work the land, and you know, you pay us uh, you know, some of the harvest of it. So when you think about it, it it set up an indebted system. I'm gonna owe you for the leasing of the tools, uh, for working the land, even though you're gonna give me, you know, pay me wages for it and sharing the harvest of it, you're getting 75% of everything, and I get 25%. So, and I'm doing all the labor. So it still was it was slavery by a new set of means. Uh, it was just being called another name. So this is where that sharecropping mentality came in. And it still goes through to today, but making the Christ teenth analogy of it, it's the same thing. You know, religion uh became the institutionalized, you know, uh master. And we've been sharecropping in institutions of religion and everything ever since. Not just Christianity, all religion, because Christ came to set the whole world free and give us all a joint inheritance with him. This this is what the whole message was about that the kingdom of God is here and it's our kingdom. The kingdom of God don't belong to Christians, it belongs to mankind. It's our birthright, it's our inheritance in Christ. And this is what was supposed to be taught by the disciples, by the apostles, by all of the people that went out who Jesus trained. And that was happening in the beginning, in the first century. But what happened is the enemy got very cunning, and just like the slave masters, they, you know, just this has been historically throughout time. This is how you keep enslaved people enslaved because you do it mentally to them. If I got you mentally, I can set your body free. But if you're if I still got your mind, then I still have
Renewing The Mind Into True Liberty
SPEAKER_00you. And this is this is why the true liberty of being able to prove the good, acceptable, and the perfect will of God is through mind renewing. You got to renew your mind, not to be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing, the renovation of your mind. Your mind is fine the way that it works, but it's that software that it's been working on, the operation, the operating system has to be changed. And it has to be changed through the liberty of Christ. And that's the liberty of Christ in you. That's not just Christ what he did for you, Jesus Christ, but it's the Christ that's been that's in you that the Holy Spirit is coming to reveal. God doesn't want a bunch of little Jesuses running around, He made us all unique. He wants sons and daughters. He doesn't, you know, we call, you know, we Christians are baby Jesuses. No, they're not. No, they're not. And if you're trying to be that, you're not fulfilling the will of God. You're uniquely you. And the Holy Spirit has come to lead and guide you into all truth of who you are, with the Christ being you. That's the hope of glory. Christ being in you, not just you being in Christ, not just that, but Christ being in you. And that is a very, very significant uh reality. And when that message began to get skewed, Paul warned people not to, man, look, they're trying to bring you back into religious bondage, they're trying to get you to do stuff uh like it used to be done. Yeah, you're not sacrificing um animals and everything, which a lot of people still were. Again, see that that that liberty, not reaching and understanding, and people still being enslaved to sin, thinking they still gotta sacrifice animals. They were still for a whole generation, people, for a whole generation for 40 more years after their liberation, people were still doing the same thing and operating the same way as if Christ never came, as if he never did what he did. We have been set free. We have been emancipated, not manumitted. We're not being see the the Christianity and religions bring you into a manumission that you can privately be free as you confess and awake to it, and you confess and you get in line with that religious you know, membership or whatever. That's you're just sharecropping at a at a spiritual level. That's all it is. That's worse. What what we're experiencing, you know, a void of the Christ teenth reality is worse than what black people or enslaved people experience prior, you know, to the Juneteenth. And and even and even after, you know, because all of the manipulation, you know, was being done and deceptive practices and still, you know, pushing this agenda just by the under a different guise. Yeah, you're you're you're free, but it's the same thing religion says when you come to an enlightenment or awakening in religion, you're free but. And Christianity is just the worst because Christ is the one that it's being held under. We're touting Jesus Christ as being the figure of Christianity, and we're all trying to be like Christ. How can you say that? And you're not bringing people to that liberation, and you're not even giving them the language and the vocabulary. What was the word first thing they tried to do to keep uh enslaved people enslaved? Forbid them, made it illegal for slaves to learn how to read. Don't give them no vocabulary, don't give them no understanding, because if they start understanding these words and what they mean, then they'll start getting free in their mind. And a free people mentally, you can only for so long hold them physically. But if I can keep you bound mentally, I can let you physically go. When you think about it with the children of Israel, when they ran up against being free, they were set free. God did it by a supernatural, mighty hand. They were set free. And but mentally, God is sitting here dealing with these people, trying to deliver them out of the mental bondage. And as soon as they were going up against tough times, what did they say? Let's go back into Egypt. You want to go back into getting beat, whipped, and people telling you when you can get up, when you can go to sleep, and what you can eat, and and all it come on. But that's what happens to a mentally bound people. They will prefer the old leaven, they will prefer the old wine and the old wine skins. This Jesus has been warning against this since ever, since he came, and will preach it, but all while still keeping the people in bondage. And and again, a lot of the preachers are just like a lot of the slave masters. They didn't, they don't know, they're just repeating what they're being taught. They go to theological schools where that theology is very skewed, and they perpetuate that, and they go out and they get congregations of people and they teach them and perpetuate that ignorance to them. But we have been freed. And when you have freedom, when you get a group of people that awaken to that, you're gonna have uh a progression of realities that begin to unfold. You're gonna have a rebellion that it looks it looks like it's rebellion. But our rebellion and revolt is not wicked. Rebellion, it just means I'm no longer gonna live according to your framework, according to what you are saying that I can live according to. Revolting is just me pulling back and saying, no, I have an inheritance. I'm not gonna continue to work your land when I got land of my own out there, and then you have a reconstruction, just like just like with the the slaves that were free. There was a reconstruction process and there was time and the 40 acres and the mules coming in and all of that, but then they people fought against that and they pulled that back. But but then after you have that, after you have the rebellion, the revolt, the reconstruction, comes the reconstitution. That's when you establish yourself and the rights that you have stepped into.
Restitution Of All Things And Our Mission
SPEAKER_00And what did Jesus say? What did Peter say about Jesus? In Acts 3, he said, Christ is gone and he will not, he said the heavens are literally retaining him, holding him back until the reconstitution, the restitution of all things, until all of us come together and knowing who we are in Christ. Let me let me just read what Paul said, Jesus said to him, what his mission was to the Gentile people, which is who we are. If you're not Jewish, you were a Gentile. That just means you were other nation. You was of the the other nations. But this is what Paul told the king that Christ said to him in Acts 26. I'm gonna start, uh, so I'm gonna start at 14. And he said, no, 13. Okay, I'm gonna start at verse 13. He says, At midday, O king, I saw in the way a light from heaven above the brightness of the sun shining around about me and them which journeyed with me. And when we were all fallen to the earth, I heard a voice speaking unto me and saying in the Hebrew tongue, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me? It is hard to for thee to kick against the pricks. I said, Who art thou, Lord? And he said, I am Jesus, whom you persecute, whom thou persecutest. He says, But rise and stand upon your feet, for I have appeared unto you for this purpose, to make you a minister and a witness, both of these things which you have seen, and of those things in which you I will appear unto you, delivering you from the people and from the Gentiles, unto whom now I send you, to open their eyes and to turn them from darkness to light, from the power of Satan unto God, that they may receive forgiveness, receive forgiveness of sins and an inheritance among them which are sanctified by faith that is in me. That was his whole mission. Paul said, That was my mission. That's what Jesus told me. I'm going to turn people from dark to light. I'm going to open their eyes. I'm going to turn them from dark to light, from the power of Satan. Not to get the power of Satan. The power of Satan was his system, his of deception, the authority that he had gotten from Adam. Jesus has gotten it back. He said, Now go and tell people that and tell them they got it. Receive forgiveness of sin. They're already forgiven. It's been, you're set free, you're emancipated. And tell them about the inheritance they have. You don't hear that. You don't hear people preaching that. They preach sin, shame, get rid of it, confess it, uh, keep your head down to Christ come and rescue us. And uh we go to heaven. And then when we do come back, Jesus is gonna wave his mighty magic, gracious wand and just turn this whole world into a whole new place. And that's just not how it's that's not what the scripture says at all. It says Jesus ain't even coming back until everything's been reconstituted, re-established in the way that I intended for it to be from the beginning. You all are free people and walk in that freedom, celebrate that freedom, learn how to live in that freedom, and you're gonna stumble along the way. You're gonna make some mistakes. God doesn't look at the mistakes and the bad choices you make as sin. Sin has been taken away. I'm not gonna get into all the stuff that people read and what about we sin and we uh, you know, all have sinned and fought. See, they're still putting everything before the cross, before the the emancipation proclamation, it is finished. And until you realize that and and awake to that and to your true identity, you will never be able to fulfill the perfect will of God. That has to be reconstituted in the earth. It is what creation is waiting and groaning for. And the sons and daughters of God have got to start manifesting themselves as themselves, but in the power and authority that we have as the royal family of God. And people, is there's so much more to this, but if you do your studies and open your mind and allow the Spirit to lead you and guide you into all truth of what we're talking about today and who you are as Christ being in you, that hope of glory, oh my, it will revolutionize your life, and no one would be able to bind you ever again to any old traditional religious system called by whatever name because it was for freedom that Christ came to set us free.
