Pastor Shane Vaughn Preaches Live "Divine Division" 8/25/23 Shane Vaughn ——— First Harvest Ministries International 1 [Music] Luke 12 51. 2 so you thought that I came to give you peace but I tell you I came to bring division [Applause] [Music] that's red letters yahshua said somebody told you that I came to bring peace he said but now how I see the Prince of Peace and yet it didn't come to bring peace because before he brings peace he brings division which brings peace amen [Music] did y'all know that your precious little Jesus said those words your sweet little Jesus said those words now that's not quite how you think of him [Music] wonderful happy clappy sweet he said you thought I come to bring peace but I come to bring 3 division the subject we do we duck but I'm going to pray [Music] Vision how do you know the difference in Divine division human division [Music] you know when you you in your life or the church I'm going to teach you that tonight let's go to the book of Acts chapter 16. 4 Acts chapter 16. go to verse 14. 5 let me know when you're there was a certain woman named Lydia she was a seller of purple of the city of thyatira which worshiped God she heard us preaching and her heart was opened by the Lord that she attended unto the things which were spoken of Paul and when she was baptized and that's something she had to be baptized hearing the preaching wasn't enough was it it just said she heard him preach and when God opened her heart she was baptized all through the book of Acts nobody did it without baptism she said she was baptized and then her whole house got baptized sound like the Denny family I 6 baptized every one of them at one time last year y'all remember that no they all went down at the same I had five of them on one arm all going down together it's a wonder I didn't drown y'all Hallelujah praise God and saying if you have judged me to be faithful to the Lord now hold on Lydia we can't judge people she said if you have judged me now let me tell you the funny thing about that word judge the funny thing brothers and sisters is if you look it up it's the exact same word for discern and praise God the word discern and judge is the exact same word in the Bible so she could say if 7 you've discerned that I'm faithful but they use the word judge it's the same thing so when people tell me they got the gift of discernment then that tells me that you are a judge amen he said if you have judged me to be faithful to the Lord come into my house Paul wouldn't even go in their house if they wasn't faithful to the word amen and abide with me and she constrained us it came to pass as we went to prayer that a certain woman possessed with a spirit of divination met us which brought her Masters much money by her soothed saying I like to call it smooth saying and this woman followed the 8 man of God Paul the voice of Elijah and us and cried saying these men are the servants of the most high God they show us the way to Salvation she liked these preachers she was a fan she told everybody how anointed they were he told everybody they had the voice of Truth she identified them and told everybody who they were but listen here's what Paul said and she did this for many days she just kept saying this this is God's Abraham this is God's voicemail this is the man of the hour but Paul was grieved in his spirit because he didn't hear what she was saying he heard what she was saying 9 [Music] is he was designing that thing oh I'm gonna preach to you tonight about discernment and then he turned to her now can I ask y'all a question what in the world is wrong with saying those are men of God if he was if she was in the church today everybody would think she was the real deal [Music] she was saying the right things and she was at she was faithful to Paul said on the front row brought him cookies now nights I bet you Pat you're my cookie girl brought him clothed Paul but she was a smooth sailor and and and and Paul was grieved in his Spirit he would go home to his wife and say 10 something right they say in all the right things they say and they believe the message they say and this is the place of Truth but I hear what they saying and Paul said these words he turned to this woman and said to that spirit I command you in the name of Yeshua hamashiach to come out of her I want to stop right there I want you all to come right now and I'm Gonna Make You All face a reality young girl about sister Ashland's age sister Izzy young girl enamored with the preacher in love with truth and she's up there shouting and screaming preach Paul and the whole churches and look at her and 11 she wonderful Paul's grieved in his spirit and he turns to that little innocent looking girl calls her a devil if he did that in the church today every one of y'all would feel sorry for the girl because you're weak [Music] it's because amen it's because you're weak in the spirit you allow these tears of these people to affect you you allow their crime on Facebook to affect you you don't discern what's happening in our midst how many of you in this room if Paul were to turn to that girl in front and then what is she going to start doing I just love the Lord but the man of God knows he knows 12 what you don't know and now you you know you're gonna walk out the door if Paul would have done that in front of you you know what you'd have told your wife on the way home well I didn't see where she done nothing wrong looked innocent to me can you believe he did her that if you don't have discernment leave those alone that do hello guys Hallelujah amen you may be seated I told y'all see sister y'all Katrina did this I was going to preach to y'all about the Song of Solomon again get y'all but this I got to preach this will be talking about paper roses you got to discern the paper rose from 13 the real rose and we're living in a church age now where people have no discernment they are so affected by emotions what they don't understand you have been called by God to discern to judge to judge to know what's right and what's wrong and to know when God is trying to reveal something now we live in a society of pseudo love I want to talk about pseudo love pseudo love is a paper rose well you could have timed that song any better pseudo love is a paper rose pseudo love is an emotional love okay pseudo love is emotional and brothers and sisters every one of you in this room as a human you 14 are able to have pseudo love you're able to have actually the Greek word for it is phileo love which is emotional love it's a Feeling and we all have it but we have no idea of what real love looks like to the child real love looks like a new car to the child real love looks like new tennis shoes to the child real love which means being able to stay out as late as they want to go where they want to that's Mom and Daddy love me no Mom and Dad is destroying you while they love you okay now to the young girl real love is roses fine dining romantic gestures that's to the young girl that's what love 15 looks like but brother Denny to the grown woman the mature woman love looks like an alarm clock going off at five in the morning and a man crawling out of bed and going to work that's what love looks like amen love don't mind if you don't look like a uh all buff and tough anymore long as she ain't got to worry about the bills that's what love looks like to a grown woman amen when Real Love Comes you can gain weight don't matter long as you're paying them bills darling praise God hallelujah they don't care about all that these young girls that love these young skinny boys you'll grow out of it 16 I promise you Hallelujah real love amen trust me trust me everyone of them that skin is broke hallelujah praise God amen I like them with muscles they all broke because they at the gym all the time praise God you better find you one that knows how to make that money bring the money in and take care of you now listen real love is what that is and we are living in a world that does not know what Real Love Is to the immature believer a loving Church is one where Anything Goes where everyone just smiles and glows and there's no ripples on the water Tranquility Rule the Day I go to a loving church 17 as a matter of fact to the church World At Large a loving church is an accepting Church let me tell you something you've got to learn what a what a loving Church is you've got to learn what a loving Pastor is what a loving Elder is because if you don't you will spend your life mistaking hate for love you will spend your life mistaking those things but God wants to teach us tonight what divine division looks like let's go to Second Corinthians 6. 18 17 through 18. uh the words for churches today are welcoming a relative uh what's some other words uh where everybody's welcome um all inclusive you know come loving Church Pastor accepts everybody as they are say it again oh I will meet you where you're at Pastor I want to go to a loving Church amen well here's what's going to happen what looks like love is going to destroy you and you need to grow up and know what a loving Church looks like second Corinthians 6 17-18 . Hallelujah but he that is joined to the Lord let's let's go to verse 16. let's just know let's go to 15. start at 15. 19 know ye not that your bodies are the members of Christ shall I then take the members of Christ and make them a member of a harlot God forbid what know ye not that he which is joined to a harlot is one body for two shall become one flesh but he that is joined to the Lord is one spirit now what is he saying here whatever you join yourself to you become in the days of the Bible there was no marriage as we know it today in the Torah if a man slept with a woman that was his wife that's the way it happened whoever you laid with you became one with the Apostle Paul says every time you sleep with 20 someone you're becoming one with them now what does that mean that applies spiritually whoever you allow inside of you you become I really hope you followed me and I'm going to try we got children I forgot to dismiss the children I'm sorry we're just staying here you need to hear me tonight whatever penetrates your ears your eyes your mind you become one with and it will not be long when you hang up the phone with that person that you'll go the way of that person very soon why they've penetrated you correct they have entered you and you have laid down with these people that are carnal minded 21 and when you do it everything that's in them every spirit you have just laid down and received it into yourself and therefore you have laid with a harlot and now you can't lay with the Lord see the Bible said he that is with the Lord is one Spirit they'll look just alike see whoever's better whoever's coming into you is who you're going to turn into this is why you must learn to discern because if not you will not know the flags and the warnings of these spirits I want to tell you how you can know them whenever they begin to hide from the congregation is going to discern you and you know it 22 that's why they start hiding and ducking and see you've got to learn to discern because if you don't do it what will happen is it will not be long that nobody will recognize you and you won't even recognize you because you've become something else I have watched people in this very Ministry that that stood there like Lydia saying he is the man of God he has the message of the hour he is the voice of Elijah I've watched those very people and today they don't even recognize their self I don't recognize them why because they didn't hear the warning of divine division [Music] there is something 23 about this church there's a spirit that comes in US that we want to hear me preach on everything except what matters and that is obedience we hate the subject we despise it we don't want to hear about it but I'm going to tell every one of you something if you ever hear anybody tell you well we've left but we still believe the message you've never heard the message this message is obedience that's this whole message that is this entire message obedience yeah this message ain't about the Sabbath day this message ain't about the holy days it's about the government of God on the Earth [Applause] 24 when I come to understand the government of God in the church and I understand it in the family you cannot go into the government of the Kingdom until you first go into the government of your family and your church God has set government in those places to prepare you for the coming government and with if you didn't get that part of this message you you forget Sabbath day forget everything if you didn't get government that's right you didn't get anything amen it's all about government it's all about finding your place and that government and us working together in unity to build this message 25 to build this ministry learn how to discern [Applause] Lydia was saying all the right things but Paul knew there was a spirit in her he knew there was a spirit in her and the church didn't know it but Paul did there's a lot of things that I'm going to tiptoe around this there's a lot of things you see in the chat groups and on people pages and and people's wondering well what's going on if I hadn't told you there's a reason [Music] just let it go you ain't got to worry about what's going on let it go there's a reason I don't talk because I love people and I don't want to expose people I don't 26 want to hurt people but you've got to learn that if I hadn't said nothing you don't need to say nothing just keep on living for the Lord just do your thing Hallelujah learn to discern I don't think I don't see everything I know everything everybody's saying I'm not dumb but I've also learned that to if I expose that when it's gonna hurt that one yeah and now some things I can't talk about so don't go around one room amen learn to discern learn to discern Don't force me in a corner where I've got to tell you everything seriously don't make me talk it's gonna hurt people if I do just say oh well 27 we got a pastor let's let's keep going on Amen there's a reason just know it there's a reason your parents they might not can tell you everything that they know if they say look don't drive that car well why well they may not feel like telling you everything that's wrong with the car just don't drive it amen now parents you want your children to obey like that but do you set the example in front of them of obeying your church leadership Hallelujah we gotta learn to discern there are spirits that creep in Among Us and they always will you're never going to get rid of that but you can you can 28 learn that first that first negative word bye I love you bye I gotta go why I don't want you penetrating my ears I don't want to become what you're turning into I want to just serve the Lord serve his church and see and get in the kingdom of God I don't care about none of that I want to stay focused on what God is doing [Applause] that other stuff don't matter right keep going on keep tracking keep tracking no turning around no distractions keep turning around Paul said come out from among them and be you separate now here's where I want to touch on Paul said come out from among them and be ye 29 separate that verse Elder Baker is easy to read but very hard to live it carries a burden with it come out from among them well first we got to figure out who them is then we actually have to obey it come out and then be separate but Pastor I want to be in unity I'm fixing I'm fixing to deal with that what you call Unity is not Unity listen to me you get a church you get a church full of of sheep and then bring ten wolves in and say we want to all be in unity that's not Unity that's insanity they will make it look like Unity for a while until you find out who they are and then all of a sudden 30 when they're exposed all of a sudden it's the church's fault right and then all of us but you know the problem is you've got to learn to discern that way you can walk in this obedience to this scripture when I read that scripture Elder Connolly it does not line up with the teaching of the modern Church come out and separate myself the church says don't separate yourself the church says let's all get alone Paul said come out from among them who them people he was just talking about the people that's affecting your life come out from among them and be separate I want to preach to you tonight 31 about the high cost of separation it costs to separate it costs you to separate it's not fun separating but if you'll do it you'll find out how glorious it can be amen it can be so glorious [Applause] and the first thing you're going to find out when you hear this message of separation you're going to go through this this Divine division you're going to go through it in your families your friends and I've come tonight to help some of you that have struggled with this division I I want to tell it to you like this if there's a cancer in your body and they lay you down on the table to dig that 32 cancer out there is a Divine division going on it is painful it hurts but if we don't do it the cancer will stay in the body Your Divine divisions is God's hand in your life separating you from this world you need to learn to love that separation that separation is what's preparing you for the kingdom of God now this wall doesn't understand that this world doesn't understand Divine division when God starts to divide his people to come out from among them let's read Hebrews chapter 5. 33 verse 14. and you know what's so sad there are many people listening to be preached tonight and I promise you 90 will not hear my message they'll say Amen to it and they'll clap but tomorrow they'll forget it I pray to God somebody in this room learns Divine division Hebrews 5 and 14. but strong let's start at 13. 34 for everyone that uses milk is unskillful in the word he's a baby Christian but strong meat belongs to them that are of full age even those who by reason have used their senses exercised to discern Good and Evil the evidence that you're a mature Christian is your ability to discern every Christian cannot discern so brother Von how do we protect those Christians it's called a shepherd there's some folks here you don't need me to protect you you can discern there's some of you that's babies you can't discern you feel sorry for everybody [Music] why was it handled that way you wasn't in the 35 meeting you don't know the whole story but I promise you one thing brothers and sisters that you grow up in the Lord you will learn to discern between Good and Evil yes sir there'll be signs there that you'll start picking up on there'll be things happen that'll cause your little alarm Bell to go off you'll begin to learn to discern now let me ask you this let me ask somebody that looks smarter question sister Lydia eBay you look smart if we're told to discern what is the purpose of discernment in other words all right I've discerned that uh better not point to nobody I've discerned that 36 brother Bob Smith is a child molester okay I've discerned that here's what the church thinks discernment is okay he's child molester all right if I'm demanded to discern why am I demanding what's the logical Next Step when I have discerned what that person is hahaha bingo that's it to mark if I know you're a child molester buddy you ain't coming to spend the night with my child and my child ain't going to spend the night with you oh brother Vaughn that's hateful he's a sweet old fella that's because you a child you don't know well why would you say that I got the Holy Ghost that's why I'm able 37 when people walk in I pick up immediately and and you may not so how can you judge the Shepherd from you not having the ability to do what you should have been doing [Music] let's just listen it's all you gotta do is listen to them talk that's it once you start and you discern that someone is a a liar we got Liars that come here we discern I mean I mean ain't no way you've done all you said you've done in your little life okay amen every degree you said you got is fake you know and we know it but we're smiling at you like we don't know it because we love you yeah however however I have to know 38 what I'm dealing with us and once I know then you and I ain't gonna be clicking too much now how does that work when we're supposed to love everybody I love you enough to let you know you can't fool everybody [Music] I love you enough to let you when when when when when when when when when when people discern my wife Devils can discern too when they discern that my wife is a woman of faith they Mark her and have nothing to do with her I promise you they'll go great that yes indeed they'll look they'll go to everybody in the church to gripe except my wife you know why they discerned her she's a 39 woman of faith yes that if you put one negative word to her it's going to hit the ground discern Christians can't discern but devil Devils they can discern a prayer Warrior they can discern somebody walking in righteousness and they'll have nothing to do with them they'll call everybody in the church to complain except they won't call Mama they won't call Daddy why the Devils is discerned if you could design as good as Devils and you're commanded to yes sir all right but here's my question if the word discern means judge and the Bible says thou shall not judge but you don't say that that's 40 dumb but anyway if people think that's what the Bible says judge not Bible don't say that okay so get that out of your head the Bible does not say that it does right here I saw it no you didn't you thought you saw it okay he said judge not unless you're ready to be judged by the same judgment and what is that judgment the word of God righteously so we've gone through the church streaming don't judge and that's why our churches are so mixed with sin because we're an accepting church first Harvest Ministries is not an accepting Ministry just let me let you know that right now [Applause] praise 41 God we don't accept everything we'll accept you poor red yellow black and white we'll accept you with nothing over the lot but we won't accept you with rebellion in your heart we won't accept you if you don't want to walk this narrow way why job to do we can't be distracted the Bible said discern them but the question is sister Chelsea once you discern them the next step is the one the Christian Church don't like Markham oh no brother Vaughn I love people too much you loved them you would mark them [Music] because here's how here's what you'll do come here sister Siri come up here I'm gonna 42 act like you're the church gossiper no you are not don't say that you're gonna be the church gossiper okay come here you're gonna be the church liar stand right over there relax coming Matthew [Applause] you're gonna be the church guy that looks at all the women [Applause] we're gonna act like you're a married man though okay eyeballing all the women when they walk in all right you see all three of them people I love them to death here's how much I love them y'all ready church is over Here Comes less Siri come walking over here like you're ready to talk I've done marked her hey darling I love 43 you sweetheart how you doing brother you ain't talking to me you're marked you know why you're marked I know what spirit's on you and I know the minute you open your mouth I can't get away from you and I got to hear all that so oh I'll have my wife I'll tell my wife call my I love my walk with God too much I love this church too much to entertain what you have to say why now I don't Mark you have I marked you because you done told you don't run your mouth to everybody in the church you're marked not Siri sure is a sweetheart she's being a good sport amen but I gotta protect me she comes up to 44 me said uh um I don't mean to gossip the minute they start off with I don't mean to gossip when they start off I Mark you I Mark you because you're so used to gossiping you're convicted of it and you're telling me up front I don't mean to gossip I Mark people brother Kendrick is this all right I Mark people doesn't mean I don't love her I give my life for her you call me hungry you're gonna be fed you get in trouble I'm there we're just ain't gonna talk when I come why because I know what you about folks that's love eventually she's gonna get the message what's wrong with me and conviction is 45 going to touch our heart and I'm gonna wind up saving her soul I'm gonna wind up saving her soul the Bible said lifting up holy hands in the sanctuary who wants to play the homosexual anybody nobody all right oh [Music] so the the sodomite walks in let's just act like he's standing right here they're homosexual Stan he's right here we love that man yes we want that man to go into the kingdom of God and we want it so much that we will not let him be deceived yes sir that's right by sitting in here with us lifting up holy hands with us [Music] because he's going to feel the presence of the Lord 46 when he does that all right Pastor he's going to stand here what happens when you come into first harvest you're going to feel something you're going to feel the presence and in your mind you're all right with God or I wouldn't have failed his presence maybe the wind blows over everybody it don't mean you living right when the wind blows it don't mean you're living right when you speak in tongues it don't mean you living right when you're dancing that don't mean you're living right that means you've learned how to have church okay but that homosexual he ain't gonna be allowed to come up and 47 sing on the platform is that brother Vaughn we gotta love him that's what I'm doing because while he's in this Sanctuary my prayer is that he will feel like God something's wrong I don't what's wrong with me that's when I can preach to you what's wrong with you and we can get you right with God so you're not deceived in your mind Hallelujah now you were fine with that I did that on purpose I'm still Toto I can teach still I do that on purpose because y'all all clapped about the homosexual the gossipers worse [Music] the gossipers worse than the homosexual that homosexual ain't gonna bother 48 nobody properly that gossiper is going to talk to everybody in the church everybody and I'm sure he ain't gonna talk to nobody after tonight y'all thank you darling Oh Yeah now now we got this one over here that's eyeballed your wife the whole service [Applause] and everybody sees him doing it you ain't able if you let him come talk to your wife you're the one with the problem why marking don't let him front hug your wife that's right I don't know when we started all this front hugging anyway with women [Music] side hug you don't need to be touching another man's bosom I'm your pastor I'm 49 trying to tell you mark those people it didn't say hate them it didn't say mistreat them it said Markham and no he's coming after your wife and when you know that you can protect your wife if you ask her for a telephone number tell him she ain't got no telephone right you don't need to be texting inboxing Markham why because that's a danger to the church it'll be won't be long he'll be done run off with somebody's wife and destroyed the church now the Bible says if I know he's like that I walk up to him and I say Hey Brother could I have a meeting with you just me and you I've noticed 50 something that bothers me as the pastor I want to talk to you about it from that second forward it's all up to him I'm trying to save his soul I'm trying to make sure he makes it in the kingdom of God if he looks at me and says no I ain't like that I can't do nothing for him but if at that point he says Pastor I do have a problem with that now now we're saving a soul now we're saving a soul [Applause] amen now we're saving a soul and all these husbands wife these wives husbands will come lay hands on him and believe God for his victory it is total Deliverance where that's how we save a soul 51 amen you won't hear churches teaching like this anywhere they're afraid to teach like this but if you're going to have a clean church you got to Mark some people love them but Mark them all right you're single you look at all the single girls you want to look at it's healthy to look at single girls amen we want you to like girls who are you the liar I'm the liar okay no I take that back you're not all right listen one of the most Faithful Men in the church amen oh I love you brother hallelujah amen so I but I know he lies I just Mark him and know that and go to him said brother I know you lied 52 to me what he does at that next point is up to him you can get mad at me or you can confess and when you confess now you're ready to be healed and then the church can heal you why because we don't care what you've done we don't care where you've been I don't care who you are I don't care how many times you've been to prison I don't care who I don't care about any of that all we care about is inside this Sanctuary what happens in here amen thank you brother Hallelujah [Applause] this is the only way to protect this ministry is to know who we're laboring with the Bible said know them that labor 53 among you brothers and sisters God created this ministry three years ago as far as first harvest and what's happening across the world with this ministry if you think that Satan is not going to fight this thing then you then you might not want to hook up with us because we're going to be fought we're going to be lied on we're going to be talked about misunderstood but brothers and sisters there's one thing about this local church we all live together we know one another we know one another Hallelujah I want to tell the National Church something the National Church you look at this local church 54 they live with me amen every day I promise you brothers and sisters that my only desire is to keep this thing holy before the Lord I want it holy before the Lord hallelujah brother Vaughn the church needs to come together and agree to disagree that would not go over in the first century Church I'm going to prove to you tonight that our generation is not like the early church we have too many Christians willing to be United in error then divided in truth [Applause] [Music] we all want to be in unity with errors rather than divided in truth and this is Satan's biggest word let's all just get 55 along no brother let's get to the problem let's root it out and let's gather around the message and we walk in unity of the message of the hour that's our Unity the true church has no fellowship with the work of Darkness the gospel itself brings division who does it bring division to those that don't believe it the minute you believe this message the folks the minute you believe the end time message that we teach just believing it created division yes it did yes it is you didn't even try you just believed so who does it bring division with the unbeliever it's a natural friction that happens 56 between husbands and wives it happens in families mother my own mother and I we would die for one another but there's a division because I believe the message there's an automatic and I didn't bring it the word [Music] yahshua said he said I'm going to separate the mothers from their own daughters now we all sit there and say that's right amen until it happens and then we're like I've done game of everything for this message you ain't gave up nothing he took it away yeah [Applause] [Music] the Cancer's got to go so that you can grow God's got better things for you amen how many of you remember 57 when the word took Christmas away from you [Applause] Christmas and now we got some holidays you you're so glad there's not a Christmas no more because by the time you celebrate all these you broke and you couldn't do Christmas if you wanted to right he took away and he added he fixed anything that this division cost you he will pay you back double he will pay you back double brothers and sisters if you believe the end time message that we preach it will automatically I've watched in my email wives that sneaked to the bathroom to listen to me preach so their husbands won't hear them husbands 58 that sneak to the garage to listen to me preach so their wives won't hear them I mean literally one woman told me she closes the shower door and gets in the shower like she's taking a shower to listen to me preach division now the church says well that can't be of God Joshua said I'm separating the husbands from their wives I didn't write the book y'all I'm reading it you know why he does it because you must pick up your cross and follow him alone and he'll watch how you handle that cross and it won't be long he'll knock on your husband's door he'll knock on your wife's door if you'll obey and 59 follow the message somebody has to obey and if you'll do it he'll knock on their door next I promise you he always will Hallelujah may I use y'all for an example this lady came to church for seven years here eight years from now whatever it's been she would walk in them back doors from work you could see the frustration on her face every service there was a division between her and her husband they loved each other they're married they're going to be married they love one another but there was a division she believed this message her husband was out there on drugs and alcohol she never missed 60 one service that may be one but I mean most the time never missed a surface at prayer meetings every service shall pray for my husband never would she would never talk bad about him running down she didn't say he's on drugs none of that she protected her husband protected him but she had to follow she had to carry the cross she had to follow yahshua and the word where it brought her and I'll never forget when he walked in and it's been three years ago living for the Lord because she carried the cross Hallelujah somebody's got to carry that cross Hallelujah always Glory there's a natural 61 division between those that love the word and those that love church there's a division there I'll say it again you have a lot of people that love to go to church it's a spiritual high it's a fix they love to come in and hear the worship and get somebody to touch them and hit the floor they love that it feels good and nothing wrong with it feels good those people are church folk but the Bride of yahshua said if there is no music I could care less I'm here to learn this word that will bring a natural division between the church and the bride it's natural it's natural you've got to learn that 62 it's not personal it's natural [Music] they don't mean to be divided you don't mean to be divided it's natural and if you'll accept it as God's work you won't be bothered by it anymore let's go to book of Titus I'm getting ready to close I told y'all Katrina I could have preached that sweet one but I'm trying to be your pastor I want you to not be deceived that yeah I want to show you how to see people can be so quickly people believe things about you and you'll ask them would you call me could we talk they'll never pick up the phone they're so deceived if you're not deceived you want to know 63 the truth all day but if you're deceived you don't care about truth you care about the way you see things let's go to the book of Titus Chapter 3 praise the Lord well let's see Titus First Timothy second Timothy there you go chapter three let's go to verse 10. 64 let's start at verse 9. 65 but avoid foolish questions and genealogies and contentions and striving for their unprofitable a man that is a heretic after the first and the second admonition reject them from the church somebody hit the eject button that's what Paul said to do brother Vaughn I could never you're too hard that's because you're a wimp don't call me hard because you're a put that on me I'm in the word right you're in your emotions that's it and brothers and sisters let me tell it to you like this whenever you go to a judge that judge has to take the law book he can't worry about what your last name is he 66 can't worry about it your mom and daddy or his friends he has to go to the book and he's going to pass down a sentence from the book if your pastor is in the book leave me alone [Applause] [Music] but if I'm in that book because I just read one verse said give them two admonitions right that is the final Authority I'm not the final Authority that word is and if I'm in that word than I am do you follow me it ain't me it's the word and when that book says go to him two times I did and if they don't hear you sister Lori I didn't write that book I'm sorry it says that but it's the word of God and 67 if we would grow up and live by the book instead of well I just feel sorry for them grow up amen amen amen well I just love them no you don't or you couldn't let them get by with Rebellion to the word of God amen amen I may not have nobody left after tonight I don't even care I'm gonna have a clean church we're going to do it by the book Elder Morgan maybe I misread that verse is that what it said Elder Baker read it again because I I could have misread it a man who is a heretic after the first and the second warning reject Pastor Von we don't reject nobody I do it [Music] we want to accept 68 people I don't I want a clean church [Music] and if we come to you once and then twice three times you're gonna be a lady discernment discernment if we don't start Discerning in this church do y'all not think Satan don't already have more people ready to send here we got to learn to desire yes sir and we got to learn how to proper protocol in the word of God did I read that verse right sounds cruel reject them let me tell you something when my boss was on drugs they got rejected out of my house don't come to my house brother Vaughn that's the reason they off drugs today darling [Applause] I 69 refuse to let them have a place to do drugs I had to reject them the greatest thing that can ever happen to you is to get rejected by love so that you can find love brothers and sisters listen to me I don't want to reject nobody y'all know my personality I just love people but I'm also a pastor I'm a shepherd y'all moved here with your family to this safe place what kind of Shepherd am I if I know I didn't mark I ain't pointing to nobody but let's say I'd unmarked her I know I know what she's about and I see her cornering you off all the time you won't be long you'll be wondering why did we 70 move here what are we doing the shepherd's seat [Applause] [Music] and then as soon as somebody sees me warn you about her well I can't believe he'd say that about her I'm nowhere who do I protect the Troublemaker or the innocent sheep thing's fixing to get tight around here amen because we got to have a clean church it ought to be to where it ought to be to where you men in this church it ought to be to where the devil is scared to send somebody here because they gonna get discerned when they walk in Hallelujah it ought to be that we ought to be that on guard work protect it the first word 71 you hear against it shut it down if you don't it'll shut you down when this sermon's over let

leaders leaders there's Bishops this Bishop's been here 50 years who are you going to trust him or them I've 72 been here 10 years this ain't no Fly by Night Thing Judy was with me from the start we still the same people we were back then we've been faithful and you're going to let some Fly by Night that don't even have a pastor come in and talk to you they couldn't tell you who their Authority is if you ask them except oh Jesus they don't look anyway all right I'm I'm not done yet let's go to Romans one day you'll thank me for this one day you'll thank me Hallelujah when we got a clean good church Romans 16 17 that's why they hated do y'all let me tell you a story real quick when I know y'all heard me 73 talk about Herbert Armstrong that man was hated you know why everybody knew who was in charge amen he didn't bow he didn't bend listen to me if you don't know where the authority is God this church will get taken over but I want to make it plain tonight there is one pastor at this church and one Bishop and that's all amen Hallelujah gotta be Romans 16 17. 74 now I beseech you brethren mark them which caused divisions and offenses contrary to the doctrine which you have learned and hang out with them inbox them avoid them brother Matthew I didn't write that why is it we believe the whole word of God but those verses [Music] the Bible said Markham but there's a reverse side to this brother Denny guess who else we mark the good ones so you can trust that one you can trust that man Mark the good ones you could I have to point to everybody people get offended you can trust them you can trust them Mark the good ones hang out with the good ones hang out 75 with the ones that are are so in love with this message that nothing else matters to them hang out with that around the doctrine of the ministry and if you'll do that you won't be deceived Acts chapter 2 verse 42 we're getting ready to close I want to show you how you keep unity in the church there's only one way to do it verse 42 of Acts chapter 2 are you ready and they continued steadfastly in the doctrine and fellowship in Breaking of bread and prayer take those four things and you'll never have a divided Church [Music] he said when God's people get together it should be to talk about the 76 doctrines of this ministry [Music] talk about the message talk about the coming kingdom of God talk about the Sabbath day talk about the Holy Days talk about the things you've learned in this ministry and you'll keep the church together you can't talk about nothing else if you're talking about Doctrine that's why in these chat groups I beg them when they start talking about I said keep it about the teachings of the church I'm trying to keep it why can we not in here to talk about this is for the teachings of the ministry let's talk about what the Kingdom's going to be like do it all day long 77 [Applause] [Music] he said the apostles Doctrine and then Fellowship it didn't say hiding out Fellowship when you find people that don't want a fellowship you found a problem brother Morgan I don't know about you but there's nothing else I'd rather do than be up here with these people hallelujah amen nothing this is my Disney World right here no I would rather you're my roller coasters literally sometimes Hallelujah I love to fellowship with you that's all they did in the early church focus on the teachings fellowship and then that third thing I like it breaking bread now y'all see why we it's 78 always food around here you know why it's a reason we don't just do it to get fat we do it because if we can get you the Saints around the food together all of a sudden everybody loves each other when you're eating [Music] we Fellowship around the food now people might people people's like Pastor that's I can't eat that late tonight then go sit back there and act like you're eating no I'm serious Fellowship I I look I'm teaching you now those are the four ways to keep a church together the doctrines uh the fellowship breaking the bread that's why when I see people I'm getting the prayer last 79 because that's the biggest one that's the biggest one but when I see people slipping out to avoid the fellowship I don't get mad at you but it's a warning that that's where the devil wants you out of the Fellowship of the church you know why because if you'll get in the fellowship if your mind's messed up about something one of these sisters will get you right [Applause] if you're sitting at the table talking about how you don't know what you're going to do your bills ain't uh when these sisters say did you know the word said right here all of a sudden your mind will get right [Music] well I 80 don't think that sister likes me what have you asked her have you talked to her your mind to get right I think the pastor was preaching to me tonight he was but it's okay I prayed for this one Hallelujah stay in Fellowship and then the last thing that kept the early Church in unity was prayer that's why eight o'clock in the morning eight o'clock at night I don't care if it's two minutes I don't care if it's five minutes stop and pray or whatever time you choose but that's when we do it as a as a Ministry [Music] promise you sister Pat if you're praying you're not playing and the devil ain't 81 playing you'll stay faithful my grandmother always told me the minute you quit praying it won't be long force yourself Christian have a prayer time if it's two minutes every day sister Judy I know you pray all the time but if we don't pray it won't be long brother to where our minds will get overcome by the enemy but when you stop and pray if it's nothing but oh God help me I need help I just need help I don't even know what to say but help me it's prayer just talk to the Lord and you won't be talking to nobody else amen amen if your pastor's upset you tell the Lord about it don't tell nobody 82 else tell the Lord say Lord I don't understand my pastor but I love him I just don't like him I don't know tell the Lord and then you ain't got to tell nobody else and spread that disease that's right and when you're talking to the Lord you know what he'll tell you he'll tell you what to do he'll remind you of his word if you have an ought against your brother go to him you'll hear that in prayer you'll probably ignore it but you'll hear it can I get a witness how many times have you heard that voice and what did you say he's too hard to talk to he's I know my shortcomings I know it talk to 83 the Lord about it do those four things and the church will stay together we come into a close Acts chapter 20. 84 I'm almost done folks we're going to let you know there's no food so Acts 20 let's read it real quickly and then we'll do something else Acts 20 verse 28 take heed therefore unto yourselves and to all the flock over which the Holy Ghost has made you an overseer to feed the Church of God which he purchased with his own blood I need somebody to read that second line over rich the Holy Ghost has made you an overseer who made men overseer listen to me Saints if you buy into this New Testament Church thinking that nobody's over you in the Lord we're all equal you'll never submit to a pastor but 85 according to that scripture I have put men over you the Holy Ghost has done it what you're hearing tonight sister Katrina is not the voice of a man this this is the Holy Ghost speaking and when you recognize it's the voice of the Holy Ghost you bet you can't get mad at me no sir it ain't me because I'm tired I'd rather be home watching uh what I like to watch at night oh In the Heat of the Night y'all don't know nothing about that In the Heat of the Night I'd rather be that but I got a job too I'm an overseer you Elders are overseers the Holy Ghost made you that I didn't make you that he used 86 my hand to ordain you you're overseers of the flock of God that's why some of you folks now okay Lord please I when I hear you address these Elders so casually these are the Elders of the church show them respect show them respect they're not perfect but they're the elders and as you as you show them respect you're respecting the Holy Ghost because he ordained them as elders you would never hear me lift my voice to brother and sister Kendra you couldn't pay me first of all my wife wouldn't let me but you couldn't pay me you know why I was raised right amen I was raised by a grandma that knew 87 the Holy Ghost said preachers in the church now you folks in this new church y'all grew up in y'all all messed up in the head I'm telling you you I I thank God for the way I grew up I said I thank God for the way I grew up I learned to respect holy things I learned to respect the mend of God the women of God the things of God the building that was dedicated to God the platform of God I learned to respect it all and if you're in your church you need to respect holy things brother Vaughn this ain't the church I get so sick of hearing that let me tell you something this building was dedicated to 88 God it's his building amen it's Holy Ground I know that we're the church but this is where the church gathers so don't you think where the church gathers is Holy amen so how we treat holy thing I didn't want to preach all this how we treat holy things is how we'll treat one another have you ever wondered why I call all of your sister Davina brother Vaughn that's so outdated no you're so messed up with this Modern Age it's honor I've never called a preacher ever without using the title ever well he's a man like me shut up who tell the county is a man like you when you say yes sir your honored 89 what makes him special there's a robe that says he's more than just a man he's in an office when we don't learn to respect those things you won't respect your husbands your wives you won't respect your parents you but see you parents want your kids to respect you and they hear you running the church down the preacher you don't obey nobody I'm gonna preach tonight might as well they don't see you respecting nothing yeah it start ain't that right sister Charlotte it starts at the top we've got to learn respect these people in this church by the Jensen these are not regular people literally 90 they're not all there but listen we're not all there they're not regular folks they're your brothers and your sisters the body of Messiah if y'all would listen to my teachings if you'll listen to me we'll turn this church into one of the most solid unified bodies on planet Earth it starts with honor it starts with honor

wives as you honor your husband you're honoring the Holy Ghost foreign y'all 91 think we could watch how we talk to one another that's the Holy Ghost you're talking to amen is this all right I hope so Hallelujah verse 29 for I know this Paul said after my departure Grievous wolves are going to enter in among you not sparing the flock also of your own selves in other words from in the midst of you men will rise up speaking perverted things to to draw the church members and create them a following they'll rise up right from among you and take your people start them a following Hallelujah learn to discern let's close out with second Peter I'm preaching about them paper roses 92 good job paper roses uh II Peter 2 and 1. 93 but there were false prophets among the people there will be false teachers among you who privately they always like to do things privately they won't show up for a zoom meeting no privately y'all better watch them privacies anyway they'll bring in damnable heresies denying the Lord that bought them and bring up on themselves destruction swiftly but listen to what it says and many will follow them many will follow them we're talking about Holy Ghost Field believers that's what he's writing to many of you is going to follow these false teachers you know why you're tired of being divided you 94 want to be in unity amen Philippians 1 27 come to the piano baby or I'll never shut up foreign Philippians 1 27 maybe they begging you to come oh she left y'all in trouble she went to the restroom oh I'll find another scripture till she gets back Philippians 1 27 let your conversation be as it becometh the gospel of Christ that whether I come and see you or if I'm absent I may hear of your affairs that you stand fast in one spirit with one mind striving together for the faith of the Gospel which is the coming kingdom of God he said if you'll get your mind on the message I'll hear of good 95 reports he said when I leave if all you'll do is get your mind on the message I'll hear good Saints the whole message tonight was simply this there is a Divine division that comes from God learn to embrace it and you won't fear it when your family has divided pray for them but don't you ever compromise for anybody you pray for them you love them you don't ever ever feel like you're better than anybody because oh God you know you're not but you got to stand in truth that is divine division amen well I'm so tired I could just pass out so we're just going to go home Hallelujah praise the Lord 96 hallelujah thank you Lord [Music] [Applause] Hallelujah let's all stand tonight

Summary

Pastor Shane Vaughn teaches on divine division and discernment in the church, using the account of Lydia and the demon-possessed girl from Acts 16 as primary examples. He emphasizes that mature Christians must learn to discern and mark those with deceptive spirits while maintaining love, distinguishing between emotional pseudo-love and genuine covenant obedience. The sermon stresses that true church unity comes through shared doctrine, fellowship, breaking bread, and prayer—not through accepting rebellion or compromising with those who live contrary to the word. Vaughn calls believers to embrace the divisions that naturally result from following the end-time message, rejecting false unity built on acceptance of sin.
