=== Judge Not, Submit (02:27) ===

[00:00:00]  There, Jim, I read a lot of the emails that come in to our ministry.
[00:00:05]  Oh, God.
[00:00:06]  Oh.
[00:00:07]  Sometimes I wonder why I subject myself to that kind of punishment.
[00:00:12]  Most of them are very nice, but.
[00:00:15]  Yeah, you're going to have a room full of elephants and one skunk will mess it up.
[00:00:21]  There's a lot of emails every day that come in from people who profess to be Christians.
[00:00:27]  And the tone is so nasty and disrespectful.
[00:00:31]  Right.
[00:00:32]  And it's not that I'm somebody special that they have to treat me different, but I am a man of God.
[00:00:37]  Yes.
[00:00:38]  And I'm working to serve God.
[00:00:39]  That's it.
[00:00:40]  And the way that they address me in the email is so disrespectful and so nasty.
[00:00:46]  And I'm like, you can disagree with me.
[00:00:49]  I'm going to love you if you disagree with me.
[00:00:51]  You can write an email to me and say, you know, Pastor Rick, Brother Rick, I think you're wrong on this topic.
[00:00:56]  I'm going to read that and I'm going to pray about it and everything.
[00:01:00]  But what I see, Jim, is it's a spirit of rebellion, of unruliness, that they're not going to be in submission.
[00:01:10]  They're not going to submit to the Holy Spirit.
[00:01:12]  They're not going to show any submission to the men of God that God has raised up to preach and teach the word.
[00:01:18]  It is rebellion.
[00:01:20]  It truly is.
[00:01:20]  And you know what's even scarier than the whole rebellion thing to me is when you're touching God's anointed.
[00:01:26]  The thing is, God said, do not touch mine anointing.
[00:01:31]  But they feel that they have the right to discern who's God's and who's not God's.
[00:01:36]  I know, I'd be very, very careful.
[00:01:38]  I don't know what part of judge not we don't get.
[00:01:41]  He said, judge not that you'll be not judged.
[00:01:44]  And it's a very freeing scripture, you know, just to judge not.
[00:01:48]  But the warfare is going on.
[00:01:53]  But don't be a part of it.
[00:01:54]  Don't be a part of throwing fiery darts.
[00:01:58]  That comes from Satan, not from God's people.
[00:02:01]  That's how you know.
[00:02:02]  How do we know that they're saved?
[00:02:04]  You know, by love.
[00:02:05]  But he said, by their fruits, ye shall know them.
[00:02:08]  I preached on that the other day if you were watching.
[00:02:10]  Yes.
[00:02:11]  But by the fruit, love, joy, long-suffering, gentleness, kindness.

=== Wow. Love Wow. (00:31) ===

[00:02:15]  Right.
[00:02:16]  Church people, you're sick if you're participating in this.
[00:02:22]  You know you pass from death into life because you love.
[00:02:27]  Love.
[00:02:29]  That's right.
[00:02:30]  Wow.
[00:02:30]  I'm telling you.
[00:02:31]  There's the damage that Tobiah and Sam Bellett could have done to Nehemiah if they had the Internet.
[00:02:38]  Oh.
[00:02:40]  Wow.
[00:02:41]  The message boards, the social media.
[00:02:44]  Thank you.
