Hey, brother, just wondering your opinion on the whole trans movement. I feel like it is an abomination to god. I mean, he put you here to be one thing, then they try to change it. So let’s talk about this. I think one part is very clear. Nobody picks what they struggle with in the flesh. Are you listening to me? Nobody picks what they struggle with in the flesh. Just any of you wake up, you’re like, let’s see, I want to struggle with obesity. I don’t think anyone does that. I wanna struggle with . I wanna struggle with alcohol addiction. I wanna struggle with porn addiction. I mean, do you realize, by the way, sometimes with the church, they get carried away, same sex attraction or transmovement and they let their mouth overload them. They just talk too much about it. But if you’re really being objective for a moment, do you understand like same sites attraction is, I think 7.1%. That’s our population, 7.1. Do you know that obesity, it’s 69% Americans have that problem. And the majority of obese people are actually in church. But you see how in the church one is socially acceptable and one is not. But I’m trying to give you a, to really open your eyes to a truth. We all fall short of the glory of god, every last one of us. None of us pick what is the thing we struggle with in the flash. So for all of us, we know one thing. We have all fallen short of the glory of God, every single person. That’s why the law of God was given. To do what? To make you realize I’m a sinner and I need a savior. That’s why no one could be righteous, not one. Self righteousness is with filthy rags. How do we achieve God’s righteousness to enter in the kingdom of heaven. You heard that the unrighteous cannot inherit the kingdom of god. You heard, right. Have you ever lied one time in your whole life? That would make you unrighteous. You cannot inherit the kingdom of God. Liars will not inherit the kingdom of God.
At this point, we shall be going, oh, okay. So forget trans, forget same sex obesity, parent addiction, drinking, lying. So a great, that means none of us, what are we gonna do? What are we going to do? We needed to save here. See, Jesus is the only perfect man got on Earth. Jesus is literally God’s righteousness, which is perfection. That’s why it’s only through belief in Jesus can you achieve God’s righteousness, because it has to be given to you through belief in Jesus. That’s why salvation is a gift of god, not of works. Letting anyone boast. It’s a gift. Either accept or reject it. So just because you have belief in Jesus, you become born again in the spirit of God. You become a new creation. You still have flesh. It’s still there. It didn’t get saved. It didn’t get born again. It’s always gonna be opposed to God.
So now you start feeding your spirit, reading the word of God gives you wisdom and knowledge. Praying gives you intimacy. Worship gives you joy. The keen grief be led by the Holy Spirit and you start walking in the spirit of God. But your flesh is still there. You don’t instantly, when you come to Christ, all your flesh issues disappear. I know tons of people that after putting their belief in Jesus that over the next five or 10 years, because it’s a work the Holy Spirit does in you. It’s called sanctification. The Holy Spirit takes you from one place to another place. So that’s why it’s important to have your belief in Jesus and in your flesh. Maybe you struggle with all these things I just said. The first thing I want to tell you, quit identifying in the flesh. If you’re a believer in Jesus, you got to realize my new identities in a spirit are not known in the flesh anymore. Longer for those of you as Christians take ownership of anything I mentioned, and you’re like, this is who I am. No, it is not. Cuz now you’re known in the spirit. You’re not known in the flesh any longer. If you can break that control off of your life, you could be free of anything we’re talking about.
Now, with that said, it’s not by my might, it’s not by your power, it’s by the spirit, says God. We’re the claim. God’s the Potter. So meaning this, when you come to Jesus, you say, Holy Spirit, what do you want to change in my life? What do you want me to be about? It might have nothing to do with everything I just mentioned. You could all sense what do you want me do in the holy spirits? Like I want you to work at the homeless shelter, right? Okay. But what about my drinking? Yeah, yeah, not right now. What about my obesity? Yeah, yeah, not right now. I mean, in church, I said, you gotta change all this stuff. Yeah, not right now. I won’t show you the homeless shelter.
And I’ve seen many born again believers in Jesus who begin to follow the Holy Spirit. They went to the homeless shelter. Fast forward a couple of months, they come back. I go, hey, how are you doing with the obesity, the drinking thing and all that porn thing? How’s that going? They’re like, I don’t know. I don’t really know what happened. I started serving the homeless people. I started working. And then, man, the joy I had working and the people’s lives that I’m changing. And man, I actually started a Bible study and I’ve been doing that. What would just happen? See, whoever you focus on more is the one you will follow. If you focus on your flash, to fix your flash, you’ll just become more flesh. If you focus on Jesus, life and life abundantly, walk in the Holy Spirit, the Holy Spirit will change you.
Now, I want to make this clear. Zero sin can be in the presence of a holy god. So it doesn’t matter. We like to make one sin larger than another. Religious institutions do that. But just answer me this one question. What sin can be in the presence of a holy God where zero sin can be zero? How are you gonna have zero if you’ve lied one time in your whole life? That’s why it’s only belief in Jesus can you achieve God’s righteousness. And remember something, God’s gonna change you over a lifetime. I’ve known lots of people and everything I just talked about, trans movement, same sex attraction, obesity, drinking, , obesity. Some of you still have these things going on. Quit identifying with them and start having a new identity in this spirit. And in due time, God will help you change all of this.
Because at the end of the day, regardless of what issue we’re talking about, there’s somebody called the father of Lies, Satan, who’s lying to people on the earth, telling you your identities, all those things I just mentioned. Many of you take ownership of it. I am doing it. I am a drunk man. I am obesity. I can’t change you. My doctors tell me that I am in the trans. I am in. No, you’re not. What you are is you’re a brand new spiritual being. You’re not known in the flesh. You’re known in the spirit. Do you follow me? Do you follow the vibe I’m giving you? Well, we have to do a better job in the body of Christ. Is handgoing after different issues, acting as if one is worse than the other because I want to make it clear, zero means zero. Sin can be in the presence of a holy god. Too many of you are distract it. Your distraction as a believer is Satan, sin in your flesh. If you would just focus on Jesus life and life abundantly lead, led by the Holy Spirit, Jesus would take you to places you never been. And the other thing is, we’re the clay in God’s the Potter.
What does that mean? We don’t tell god what to change and what to fix. I’ve known people who’ve been in a trans movement and they absolutely had the changes. And do you know 10 years later, they’re like, god, open my eyes. I never saw before. And then they had to live with a lot of these changes, and it was difficult. Some of the people are on this feed, by the way, who these changes have taken place. Go listen to other people, by the way, not just with trans same sex, not just , not just drinking, not just obesity. Body of Christ, let these people stand up. Nobody can help other people more than the people have been living, breathing and moving it.
But I want to make this clear. But what’s the number one thing you can do? Put your belief in Jesus, man. When you believe in Jesus, you become born again of the spirit. You become a total new creation. And while we’re still on earth and struggling in the flesh, can we have other believers stand up who have overcome these things? Cuz when they speak, they’ll give you wisdom, knowledge and serving like you never heard. But remember something, it is the Holy Spirit that will pick and choose when it’s going to change something in your life, not you and me.
Father, we love you. We love you. I pray that we know each other by the spirit, not by the flesh. We have a new identity. I thank you, king. Just set the captives free. That’s all of us. We were all bound, every one of us. You’re the only answer to set us all free. May Christians learn how to walk with one another, broken walk with one another with all of these other issues that are going on. May we learn how to fight the good fight. May we learn that it’s not about Satan and sin in your flesh. That’s a distraction. It’s about following Jesus life and life abundantly. So bring freedom in the body of Christ.
And I thank you today. May everyone realize one thing. I do not have an identity in a flesh any longer. If you put your belief in faith in Jesus, I am born of a spirit. I’m a new creation. I am not known in the flesh. Quit taking ownership in the flesh. You’re a new believer, washed in the blood of Jesus, sanctified by the blood of Jesus. You are a new creation. Quit looking backwards. Looks forward in Jesus name, amen.
