Part 4: The Lambs Book of Life 5/25/25 - "Only beast worship the beast, Only lambs worship The Lamb"

* Revelation chapter 13. How many Let me ask you a question. How many life forces are flowing through the world? Two. Death or life. Disease or life. There is every human in the world operating under a life of some kind. You either have the life of an animal, a beast, the life of a human or you have the life of Christ. * It really is that simple. Your body I'm fixing to let you be seated. You can endure for a few minutes. Amen. Your body is a conduit for a life. One of the two. Your body's a host for one of the two lives. Anything that's not the life of Christ is the life of Satan. Okay. Now, who is going to take the mark of the beast? Those that have the life of Satan, sin. * There is a group of people that have another life in them that cannot take the mark of the beast. Now, let me tell you who those people are, Sister Laxshy. They are the lambs of Yahweh because a lamb is the only animal in the world that can endure a snake bite. Yes, sir. Do you know what they will do if you get bit by a snake? They'll go get lamb's blood because it neutralizes the venom of a serpent and you can Google that. * A lamb cannot die from a snake bite. I don't care what snake bites them. There's something in their blood that resists that other life. Oh my god. [Applause] Hallelujah. There's something in their blood that will not make room for that other alien life force. [Applause] And the only people in this hour that will not be snake bit by the beast uh and carry his mark are the 144,000 lambs of Yahweh. * Amen. We're going to talk about that life tonight. Revelation 13 verse one. I stood on the sand of the sea. I saw a beast rise up out of the sea. Someone tell me what sea means in the Bible. Wickedness. Multitudes of wicked men. Yes, sir. I saw a beast rise up out of humanity. Yes, sir. Amen. And it had seven heads, 10 horns. * upon his horns 10 crowns, upon his head the names of blasphemy. Verse eight, and everyone that dwells on the earth will worship this human god, this beast that comes from men. Come on now. Everybody will accept this mark. Everybody if their name has not been written in the book of the wait a minute on the book of the life. * What did I just teach you about the life of the lamb five seconds ago? Oh, there is a life uh in the lamb uh that rejects uh it rejects uh good God from Zion. It rejects the mark of the beast. [Applause] [Music] If the book of the life of the lamb has been written into your bloodstream, if it has been written into your psyche, into your mind, it automatically resists the bite of the beast. * Oh, the wonder of it. Hallelujah. And you may be seated. Verse nine. If there's anyone listening to Pastor Vaughn that has an ear, he needs to hear. If there's anybody that's got an ear besides a human ear, if you've got a lamb's ear, there is something in you, Elder Morgan, that automatically resist the bite of Satan, the mark of the beast, or the temptation of rebellion. * It's in you. It's in everyone who is written or whom the book of the life of the lamb is written in them. Now remember this is part two of the life of the lamb or the lamb's book of life. I taught you a few weeks ago this is not a book. It's not a roster of saved people. This is literally a story that is being written in the lamb's. * Hallelujah. The lamb. Somebody say the lamb. Hallelujah. I'm trying to make a point. I hope you'll hear it. It's not the lamb book of life. It's the lamb's book of life. It is the story of the life of the lamb that automatically cannot accept the mark of the beast. I'll prove it. The lamb was standing on a mountain called temptation. * And guess what came to him? The mark of the beast. All right. The mark of the beast said, "If you're truly the son of God, do this. Do that." And the lamb had something in him that said these words, "It is written. It is written. I cannot take your mark because I've already been sealed by his. Hallelujah. Glory to God. * Now, yesterday I proved to you and Friday night that there is coming a day when all of the world will be in the new covenant. And then I taught you that there's coming a time, Ezekiel prophesied it, when I will cause every one of you to walk in my ways. Now, I want to slow down here. I grew up fourth generation and there is a scripture that we're going to turn to in a moment that I always thought I knew what it meant because if anybody knew what Acts 238 and 39 meant, it was our people because we had the bumper sticker with * Acts 238 on it. Right. If anybody knew what that meant, we did. Okay. Now, keep Acts 2:38 and 39 in your mind because I'm about to show you something. Notice that the new covenant that will come during the millennial reign is not for the world yet. That covenant is for the house of Israel and the house of Judah. All right. * Now, after the millennial reign begins and Yahweh fills all the natural descendants of Abraham with his spirit. and and and then every one of them will then give way to the rest of the world. Now, that's when the new covenant is in effect. There's coming a time when we will shift from effort to enablement. For a sinner, it takes an effort to live for God. * For someone that has the Holy Ghost, you're enabled to live for God. There's no effort. None. I don't wake up every day saying, "Oh, I just hope I can live for God today." I wake up living for God. Why? There's no more effort. I've been enabled by those laws being written in my mind. Now, I didn't tell you I don't fight the devil. * I didn't tell you I don't struggle with temptation. I didn't tell you. But I did say I don't struggle to live for God. Because I promise you, if I sin, I promise you, I repent quicker than I sinned. Amen. Amen. Why? I've been enabled to live for God. I don't have to try. I don't have to read those commandments, biting my fingers, saying, "Oh, God, how can I How can I not Oh, how can I not steal? How can I not?" No. * No. I surrendered. Yes, sir. He arrested me. Yes, sir. I'm a slave to another master. And I've been enable. Hallelujah. Now, let's talk about the period of time that we're in when we're not under the new covenant, but yet there's a bunch of us that's already living the new covenant until the new covenant is instituted with all of Israel. * Now let me tell you something. I taught you that the new covenant is only for the descendants of Abraham. Israel. Okay? Israel is not a mystical thing. Israel is descendants of Abraham. Now, they've been lost. Nobody knows who they are. But there's a great mystery here. If I happened to be a member of the lost tribes, and I know I am, or I wouldn't be standing here today, he would never have drawn me if I wasn't a descendant of Abraham because he remembered his covenant with us and only us. * Hallelujah. But I do have a question. If I'm a natural descendant of Abraham, then so is my mama. Why is my mama not walking in this way? But if we're in the new covenant, if we are, then she would have to be walking in this way. All right. Now, the reason I'm harping on this new covenant teaching today and for the last three services is because that is the biggest problem in Christianity is they believe we are under the new covenant. * Now if we are then indeed there are no more commandments per se to have to worry about because they're in us and therefore those are obsolete. You follow me? Because when the new covenant comes you actually can take them stones and burn them. it will be done away with. But the Apostle Paul said in Hebrews chapter 10, I believe that the old covenant, the original covenant is simply getting old and it's getting ready to pass away, but it has not passed away yet. * So until that happens, you and I are part of a group called remnant Israel. We are part of a group of certain men called by grace. Oh, thank God for grace. You and I watch this. Now that they put the curtains up, I can't do my shadow experiments no more. I don't have a wall to do it on. No shadows anymore. Hallelujah. * If on the floor. No. Yeah. Right there. You see that shadow? Okay. That shadow is you. Y it's telling you something is on the way. And the evidence is in the shadow. [Music] Beloved, you are that shadow. When the world sees you, they are seeing in advance what they're going to become. Amen. * They are looking into the future when they look at you. Yes, sir. And that's a fact, Jack. Hallelujah. Now, Ezekiel already told us that the day was coming when every Israelite man and woman would walk in Yahweh statutes, not by command, but by conversion. I want to prove something to you. How many of you in this room tonight, a certain question has fled from your mind? Am I going to Pentecost this year? Has that question fled from your mind? Let me show you why. * In other words, that's a question you don't even ask anymore. You know why? because you're no longer serving by command but by conversion. [Music] Hallelujah. Is there anybody that when you get paid every week, you ask yourself, "Am I going to give tithe this week?" Why? You're no longer under command. You're under conversion. You have been converted into a brand new creature. * But I want to talk to you tonight about until then. You and I are living in the twilight. What is twilight? Until then? It's no longer yesterday. It's not quite tomorrow. It's twilight and that is what we call the shadows. You ever heard the song, the shadow, the evening shadows come? We're living in the shadow of the new covenant that is coming to planet Earth. * We are the shadow of it. Until then, Yahweh is calling. And I want you to hear me. Please listen to what I'm fixing to tell you. Yeah. Those of you that are not listening, I'm talking to you. Listen carefully. At this moment, as unfair as it seems, what I'm about to tell you. And as cultic as it sounds, I'm about to tell you something. * In this hour only certain men are being called into the new covenant. Certain men. Certain men right now only. And I'm going to prove it to you. Go with me to Acts chapter 2 verse 38 and verse 39. Now, I don't know why, but I was in church all my life and I could read this verse backwards and forwards and I missed the whole message of it all my life. * Honey, if you didn't believe we knew Acts 238, if you come in our look, it was dangerous to come in our church. We'd meet you with an action 238s. We knew Acts 238, but we didn't know Acts 2:39 and that's what causes so much confusion for the promise of what? The Holy Ghost. The Holy Ghost is the new covenant. It brings you that new covenant. * The promise of this new covenant is to you. Who is you? Israel. At first, before Israel. Who was he talking to first? The Jewish people. Yes, sir. The tribe of Judah. He was in Jerusalem. Who lived in Jerusalem? Judah. But he said, "This covenant is also for another group of people." He said, "It is to all who are a far off." That's Israel. * Now, all our life, we thought that meant everybody. Until I realized one day that all through the Old Testament, the lost tribes are the ones that are called a far off. Amen. The rest of the world was not a far off. They wasn't even in the picture. That's why Yeshua said, "I only came for the lost sheep of Israel. * " Now, you would think at that moment he would say, "All right, the Holy Ghost is about to be given to the Jews." And now all of the children of Israel, all the lost tribes. But that's not what he said. Let's keep reading. as many. The promise is to the Jew and the Israelite, but only as many as Yahweh calls out of those people. Hallelujah. * Hallelujah. This is why I watch people go beg people to come to church. They spend endless energies and lifetimes begging people to be what God has not called them to be. Oh my God. If he's called them, they are coming. That verse, let me read that verse backwards to you. The new covenant is for the Jews and the Israelites. * But until that new covenant comes, it's only available to as many of those people as Yahweh calls. So that solves the mystery of why my mother is a lost tribe member, but she's not here tonight. My sons have to be Israelites, but they're not here tonight. But I know my Bible said, "Pray for all men." Ah, when we pray for them, Yaheh will hear our prayer and call them Now, when Yahweh calls these men, he's about to start writing in them the Lamb's Book of Life. * These men are not being added to a salvation roster, but they were added to a story. A neverending story. Hallelujah. A story that started in a lamb. Brothers and sisters, it is not those in this room and those on Zoom that are being added to a book, but a book is being added unto you. H a story that started before time began is being written in somebody here tonight. * A book is being added to you by something called grace. Now, these that are being called out in this hour have become living parchments. The book of the lamb's life. Yahweh is not recording your name in a book, but he's writing his name in a book. Thank you, Elder Su. You got that one. He's not writing down the name Thomas Morgan in his book. * He's writing the name Yahweh and Yeshua in your book. Hallelujah. He writes himself into you. I'll give you a parable just so you'll know how this is working. Whenever I give brother Chaflet a CD or a SD card to put in that camera back there, we're not writing anything on the camera, but the camera is writing something on the book. * That's what's happening with the lamb's book of life. Hallelujah. Whenever you go down in the water of baptism according to Acts 2:38, you are an SD card. We plant you into the computer and suddenly a book is written in you. A story older than time. Woo. Hallelujah. Pastor Von, what's the title of this book? It's called The Overcomers. That's the title of the book. * And immediately we start writing a program onto your heart. Uh how to overcome. Uh how to never give up. Uh how to stand in the midst of the fire. How to burn without burning. How to turn without turning. Uh, how to live, how to die without living. There is a story being written in the book of the life of all the lambs. Woo! Hallelujah. I'm glad about it tonight. * I said, "I'm glad about it. I'm glad about it. I'm glad about it." What I love about those SD cards, if I give one to Brother Shaflet and it's got something on it, it'll overwrite it. Come on now. Come on. It will overwrite what's written. Why? Because the new story is being written on a new book. Hallelujah. * Woo. The Psalmist David said in Psalms, I tell you what, I got a letter today from one of the brothers in the national church and it blessed my heart. He said, ' Pastor, this Sabbath we went visited a friend of ours that pastors a Sabbathkeeping church. And he was telling me all about their visit. * He said, "We're so glad we went." He said, "We had no idea what we had." He said, "It was so dead. It was death. It was like death in the building. They were Sabbathkeeping. They were feasting." Oh, but it was death. He said, "What we have at FHMI is so special. It's so unique. So different." Oh, God's writing a story in all of us. * Oh, I want to encourage you tonight. Don't ever get used to what you've got. Or you'll wake up one day talking about the good old days. Oh, don't ever get used to what you got. children, you're part of something special. You know, my wife and I, now that we've gotten Shay, we watch I turned on Fox News since I bought her cuz we watch puppy videos. * I I mean this little this little heer has taken over our house. But while we're watching the little doggy videos, it was a cute little meme and the little puppy was getting on the nerves of the owner. And the way they do these videos, they let the dogs act like they're talking, but then they put words up or or they say what the dog is saying. * And the dog was saying, "Don't get too aggravated at me. I have a short lifespan. I won't be bothering you too long." And I thought about that. Wow. I thought about that for ourselves. Those of you in this ministry, you've got a short lifespan. You ought not be wasting it worrying about what other folks is saying. * You ought to dig in. You ought to dig into this message. Uh, you got a short little while to get it. You got a short little while to get it. Y'all not waste one second reading what they're saying. But what is the word saying? [Music] You don't have much time to get it right. And what shocks me, there's some people at the end of their life right now acting like fools. * Life is short. And you're part of something that won't last forever in your lifetime anyway. You'll be gone tomorrow. and you sit on these pews and you sit in this Zoom, but oh God, I pray to God, how many of you truly understand? Some of you get a little too familiar. Don't let it happen to me, Lord. Hallelujah. * David said in the book of Psalms verse 8. Verse number seven, then I said, behold, I come to you Yahweh in the volume of the book. It is written of me. And what was written? It was already written in the book that I would desire to do your will. Psalms 40 and8. Now I want you to hear what I just read. Let's start at verse 7 so you can focus. * Then I said, "Behold, I come to you, great Yahweh, in the volume of your book. It is written of me that I will delight to do your will. It It was written before I ever delighted in doing your will. It was written in the book that I would delight to do your will. Baby, y'all need to quit trying to get y'all's name on the book and try to get the book on your name. * Hallelujah. I love it when the Holy Ghost drops a bomb. Hallelujah. [Music] It is written, "I delight." Listen, if that's not predestination, I don't know what is. You didn't know I was coming to teach on predestination tonight, huh? He said there's a book written a story and I am in the story and it said that I will love doing your will and one day when I go in the water my SD card's going to go into the computer and what was written on the computer it's going to be written on the man in the water. Hallelujah. that I will delight * because you're going to give me what it takes to delight to do your will. Pastor Von, how could God know who's going to do his will? I'll tell you how. I know. I know that I'm never ever going to eat liver. It ain't happening in this life or the one to come. There'll be no liver and onions and all that for me. Not no you. * See, I know you will, but I know I won't. Now, I have confidence. Now, listen carefully. I have confidence in myself that I'm never going to eat liver. I have confidence. I'm never going to be cute and skinny again. Okay. Now, I may lose some weight, but I ain't dumb. I'm never going to be like it was at one time. * It was GQ and all that. I have confidence that ain't coming back. Okay. I have confidence in myself. I know that. So if somehow Elder Betts, if somehow I could write Shane Vaughn into Raybetts, then I could prophesy Ray Betts will never eat liver. Wow. Amen. Amen. How does God know Ray Betts is going to do his will? Because Yahweh knows that he will always do his will and he's going to write himself into rapets by predestination by grace. * [Music] Think about it. If the Holy Ghost is God, Yahweh, and he is, and he moves in, it don't take rocket science for him to prophesy what you going to do. Come on. I wish somebody would sort of hear me. Hallelujah. He said, "It was written of me, I would love doing your will." You know why? Because Yah knew at the River of Jordan, he was going to descend on that man. * And cause him to do his will. Oh, thank God for it. Thank God for it. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. The book of the life of the lamb is not a ledger in heaven. But the book of the lamb's life is a breathing nation of people that all are part of the same story that keeps duplicating itself over and over again. * I want to help you with a modern day parable. I want to show you the difference in the original covenant and the new covenant because it's very important that you realize this. If you've ever had children, you know the difficulty of teaching children. You usually find that you have to instruct them many times before they begin to act according to your instructions. * For instance, they come home from school. They throw their clothes in the floor between the door and the kitchen cabinet. They go get something to eat. Pour milk on the counter on their lucky charms, their books, their lunchbox, their coat, their shoes is scattered from one end to the other. And they act like you should rejoice that they're home. * And you really are saying, "Are you already back?" Yes, sir. Mothers have to instruct their children to put things away. Don't leave them laying around. She has to tell them many times and hopefully eventually her law is put into their mind. That's the first step. It must be put into the mind. And then when it's put into the mind, it will trigger an automatic response without any significant thought. * No effort. No longer does it require undue attention. It becomes what? Thank you. Did you say second nature? I was born with a first nature, but I thank God I've been begotten with a second nature. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. That's why Yahweh gives us these shadows. We will not have these shadows in eternity. * We will have them during the millennial reign. Why? Because we're still training people. Yes, sir. The reason we have the shadows, it is the instructions in plain sight to instruct the child until it eventually becomes part of their nature. When I was a little boy, my grandmother used to said, "Shane, make sure you brush your teeth, baby. * " But I didn't want to brush my teeth. Why does boys hate brushing their teeth? I didn't like the time and the effort it took to stand there. And after a few minutes, she would say, "Son, did you brush your teeth?" No, Nana, go brush your teeth. The next morning, same thing. Shane, your breath smells bad, son. Did you brush your teeth? No, ma'am. * Weeks and weeks. Listen to that word. Week after week after week, did you brush your teeth? No, ma'am. But then after weeks and weeks and weeks, something strange began to happen. Her mind eventually got into mine. And I woke up one morning and just brushed my teeth. I had seen the shadow enough. Yes. * To where the shadow moved into my consciousness. I crawled out of bed for the first time and remembered without without needing to see the commandments. It moved into my mind. It moved into my heart, my mind. I now I didn't say that I wanted to brush my teeth. I still fought every day against brushing my teeth. But I heard my nana's voice. Hallelujah. * I heard have you br and I didn't want to hear that. So she like a parent Yahweh will give us the shadows. Are you coming to the feast? Sir, are you like I feel like I'm I'm on broken record on Zoom on Friday night on Saturday morning. Are you coming to the feast? But there will come a day when you will send a message, pastor. I'm coming to the feast. * Why? I'm tired. It's put in my mind. I'm getting it. I'm understanding it. I'm getting it. Hallelujah. I'm going to say something right now. It's going to offend about 20% of you. And the reason I'm telling you is because I love you more than you love me. Nobody watching me tonight loves me more than I love you. Three times a year you are commanded together into one place and one location with the house of Israel. * Bring it right here. Some of you are still playing games with this message. You still are not getting it. But I I don't worry about it. I love you and I'm not you. If you never come, I love you. But let me tell you what's going to happen. I'm prophesying it. Bring it closer. Bring it right to where they can see my nose hairs. * Don't worry, this man of God. Next year, I'm still gonna be driving you crazy. I promise you, we're going to get it inside of your mind to where you yield to the word of Yahweh. I'm so glad my nana didn't quit saying, "Have you brushed your teeth?" I bet she didn't enjoy that. I bet you didn't enjoy smelling my breath when I'd walk out. * I don't enjoy smelling some of your breath when you don't go to the feast. Because when you don't go to the feast, it'll show up in your attitude. It'll show up in your walk with God. It won't take long. You won't be here no more. Do y'all know I could build a bigger ministry if I quit saying brush your teeth? Do y'all know that? Do you know I could double the size of this ministry if I'd shut up about brushing your teeth. * But unfortunately, you don't have a preacher. You got a pastor. You've got a shepherd. We going to get this thing right one of these days. Woo. You ain't got no Bible study teacher. I'm your shepherd. Hallelujah. Yes, sir. Hallelujah. I don't just write books and do Bible studies. I have a duty. Yes, sir. And it's to do what? To get you to brush your teeth. * Pastor, you're condemning us, baby. You can call it what you want to call it. Now, I realize there's some of you have medical. Please, I get so tired of saying that ought to just be a given. You know, I'm not talking to you if you can't. You know that. So, let's Can we quit that? Did I have to say it every time? But there some of you, you know that you're not putting Yahweh first. * You know it. And you're not going to come to Bible study for about three weeks so you don't have to hear me say it again. But one day, you're not going to be able to run from me forever. You're going to slip back in. I'm still going to be saying it. Put Yahweh first in your life. Hallelujah. Somebody say, "I'm going to brush my teeth. * [Music] My grandmother succeeded in putting into my mind. But I still struggled. When the Holy Ghost comes in your mind, the struggle never leaves. But neither does the power to do it. It never leaves. Sister Bats, I Minister Bats, I can wake up in the morning and decide not to brush my teeth. * But I promise you, I'm going to hear my dead grandmother in my mind. Did you brush your teeth? She was my shadow. Wow. The things that we do when we wear our toites, when we put these articles, there is nothing in these articles that will help you. But let me show you what they are. This is Nana. This is Nana saying, "Remember to brush your teeth. * " Hallelujah. We're putting these in here to help you with the struggle. Glory. Oh, thank you, God. Thank you, Almighty Yahweh. Little by little, it became a habit. If you've got, let me tell you something. There's somebody watching me that's got any bad habits. We've all had them. We've all got bad habits. * I have a habit of eating too late at night, which this week I can thankfully say that I have chosen not to eat it past 10:00 one night this week, and I've done it. These are bad habits. watching my people's Facebook pages convict me when I see what all they're doing right and I'm doing wrong. These are habits that we have to break. * If you want to break a bad habit, you replace it with a good habit. Amen. Amen. If you're here tonight and you have a bad habit of not keeping the Sabbath holy, you just start keeping the Sabbath holy and you'll no longer not keep the Sabbath holy. You have a bad habit of skipping out on your tithe, then just quit skipping out on your tithe and all of a sudden you won't be doing that no more. * Why? Yahweh has given you the power. Yes, sir. Now, he places his spirit within you and he says, "I'll be your God and you will be my people through something called elective grace." Turn with me to Romans 6 and4. I'll close in just a moment. Romans 6 and14. Now, we're going to deal with predestination and grace. * Predestination is one of my favorite subjects. The reason I love it is because both camps get it wrong. You have one camp that believes you can lose your salvation when you sin. You have the Calvinist, the Baptist. They don't believe you ever lose your salvation. And the truth is they're both wrong. But yet predestination is right. * They all believe in predestination, but it's just like the Trinity. When I tell people that I believe in the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, but not the Trinity, They don't know what I'm talking about. In the same way, Sister Natalie, I believe in predestination, but not their version of it. So, what is predestination? It's very simple. Everything God knew in advance. * It's that simple. The problem with it, people think predestination determines who's going to hell and who's going to heaven. No, no, no. That's not what predestination does. Predestination does choose only certain men, but not for salvation, but for the first harvest. the first resurrection, the first general assembly of the saints. * So let's read Romans 6 and14. For sin will not rule over you, for you are not under the law. Boy, that's their favorite verse. And therefore, what? You're under grace. Okay, y'all ready to break that down? Y'all ready to break it all the way down? Cuz this is the scripture they will throw at you when you tell them you're going to a Sabbathkeeping church. * I thank God I'm no longer under the law, but I'm under grace. You are under grace more than even they know. Amen. Let's ask the question that that line said that sin will no longer rule over you. Well, what sin? Let's talk about it. What sin will no longer rule over you? What does the Bible say sin is? But wait a minute. * We're no longer under the law. Okay. But sin will no longer control you. But wait a minute. Sin can't control me because there is no more sin. Because sin is the transgression of the law. And if we're no longer under the law, there is no more sin. So, how could sin no longer rule over me if there is no more sin? I'm gonna try it again since some of y'all's lost. * Paul says, "When you receive the Holy Ghost, sin will no longer control you because you're no longer under the law." Wait a minute. Wait a minute. Wait a minute. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. It is the law, Paul said, that told me all about sin. If there's no law, then sin can't rule over me because there is no more sin. * Don't make me do a third time. I got it. Okay. Thank you. You got it. Elder Beth's got it. So, that's not what it is saying. It can't because Paul is telling you sin will no longer control you because now listen to what he said. You're no longer under the law, but now you're under grace. You're under so much grace that the law of sin and death will no longer control you. * You're no longer a slave to it because you're no longer under the law of sin and the law of death, but you're now under grace that says you don't have to break the law. Now, every man cannot have that testimony. Every man cannot not break God's law. It's not in them. Only those men so far under grace that the sin commandment breaking no longer can control them because they are under grace. * It's a grace uh that sets them free from the dominion of breaking God's law. Hallelujah. The power of grace. If you're here tonight, you ought to sing Amazing Grace louder than anybody because you're not here because of the law. You're here because grace sets you freeh from breaking that law which put you under death. Breaking the covenant will no longer control you because now you're under Yahweh's grace. * Pastor Von, what do what do you mean by grace? Just follow your patterns. Follow your patterns. I'll show you grace. Follow your patterns. Let's go back to the echoes of e Israel. Just go back. There was a people just like you. They had done nothing that deserved salvation. They were slaves to sin. Egypt. Pharaoh. When Pharaoh said, "Make them bricks," they made them bricks. * When s when Pharaoh said, "Smoke that cigarette," they smoked it. When Pharaoh said, "Shoot up that heroin," they shot it up. Why? They were bound. They were not even praying for themselves and nobody was really praying for them except an old covenant with Abraham. Oh, hallelujah. And God remembered his covenant and by grace he reached down and took them by the hand. * Brought them out of what? commandment breaking. He brought them out of Pharaoh's bondage. He brought them He didn't bring He didn't set them free from Torah. He set them free from breaking Torah. Now imagine with me. Now, let's take Paul out of the New Testament. Let's bring Paul back to the Old. Imagine Paul was writing to the ancient Israelites. * And says these words. He says, "Pharaoh will no longer rule over you because you are no longer under that master but you are under grace. And that grace uh called you out uh with unmmerited favor, unmarited grace. You didn't deserve it, but it called you out. Hallelujah. And now, imagine Paul's writing these people and says, "Now that you've come through the water of baptism, now that I've called you through Passover, now I'm delivering you to your new master, the law. * " He brought them uh from that old master of and by grace uh brought them to the law. Why will Pharaoh no longer have dominion over you? Because of grace. You think what if he would have said now Pharaoh is not going to have dominion over you no more because Pharaoh don't exist no more. No. No. No. Pharaoh existed. All his children still existed. * But the reason you won't sin no more is because my grace brought you out of that control and that dominion and you are free. You people on Zoom look dead. Woo. Are y'all listening? All right. Hallelujah. Glory. Sin has dominion over those that are still condemned by the law because the law itself has no power to stop you from breaking it. But grace does. * The law cannot stop you from breaking the law. Hallelujah. But grace will be written internally like it was for David, like it was for Moses, like it was for Jeremiah, like it was for Yesua. And they will write the story of the lamb. Grace will be written into your heart. Not just any grace, predestined grace. * supernatural grace. And when the new covenant is fully instituted, listen to this carefully right now. Everyone on Zoom, listen to me. Everybody here, hear this right now. First Harvest Ministries and all of those that walk in the covenant in the world, you are under something called elective grace. It goes back to Acts 2:39. * For as many That's elective grace. It's favor. And it ain't fair. That's right. Not in the eyes of the world. It's not fair. But they truly don't care because they don't have what it takes to care. That's right. Yahweh at this moment has elective grace for certain people. He calls you out. But there's coming a day when you will no longer be under elective grace, but the whole world will fall under corporate grace. Yes, sir. Amen. * The whole world will soon get what you've got. Grace that they didn't earn, that they did not deserve. But somebody has to get it electively. Hallelujah. Let me help you understand. Yahweh told Israel of all the nations of the world, I did something very unfair. I chose you not because you deserved it, but because your great greatgrandfather was my friend. * I I made a promise and I've got to fulfill the promise, but I have to do it every man in his own order. So right now, the plan's not to get everybody, but there is a plan for grace to call forth the first harvest. And therefore, I can't call everybody right now. John 6:44, "No man comes to the Father unless the Father draws him by elective grace. * " If you ever get what I'm teaching right now, I can promise you people don't get it. If you ever get it, it will ignite something in you to know how special you are, how blessed you are that you're sitting in this message. Uh you will know it deep in your heart. It's elective grace. And right now it's not fair. * But what would be more unfair? Watch this. Hold on. Now I'm fixing to break it all the way down for you. Pastor, that's not fair. It's more than fair. Let me show you why. What if I was going to take over a nation and I was going to demand that they walk in my ways. So I take over the whole nation. I go in with military. * We take over the whole nation. and we get there and we tell them they've got 24 hours to submit to this new authority or else they wouldn't make it. But what if I landed in that new nation with several billion teachers? Yes. Amen. A kingdom kingdom. Hallelujah. Amen. Ready to teach a government. Ready to teach and train. Amen. Hallelujah. * What if I dropped in every city and in Wavelin I dropped a teacher? What if in New Orleans uh I had teachers ready to convert the world to my ways? You tell me what's fair. What's fair is he's getting a government ready to implement his will, his ways in all the earth. Yes, it is. What's fair? What's fair is if you're going to open up a bunch of schools that first of all, you open a teachers college and you train them and get them ready to open up the kingdom training centers all over the world. * You tell me what's fair. You tell me what's not fair. Pastor, that don't make sense to me. Pastor, if God's going to fill the whole world with the Holy Ghost like I got, then why would they need teachers? Honey, you still need one. And you've had the Holy Ghost how many years? Ain't nobody heard me, so I'll try it again. * If the whole world's going to get the Holy Ghost in a one moment, then every Why need kingdom training centers? Why do you still need one? You've been having the Holy Ghost how many years? Because the Holy Ghost gives you the power to transform, but the taught word of God gives you the tool to transform. [Music] That was more than you got. * Say it. What I'm doing now, you will do then. You will teach them how to keep Sabbath. That's why you might want to start getting a little bit more serious about how you keep it. Amen. Amen. You know, like some of y'all sitting here don't even believe a word of this. I can tell. And not by your response. * Not by your response, by your life. Come on now. I can tell by the way you treat the Sabbath. Hallelujah. Do you really believe you're going to teach the world? Ain't it time for you to get it right? Ain't it time for us to get it right? world, Elder Connelly. The whole world is going to be filled with the spirit of Yahweh. But the spirit of Yahweh only teaches through men. * Praise God. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. [Applause] Come on now. I feel the Holy Ghost here tonight. I said I feel the Holy Ghost here tonight. Hallelujah. The law, the Torah. Let me tell you what the Torah is. You may be seated. I'm closing. Let me tell you what that Ten Commandments are down there. The Ten Commandments, the Torah, is not a restriction. * It's a revelation of who Yahweh is. Okay, let me break it down for you. Thou shalt not commit adultery. That was not Yahweh telling you what not to do. And it's even deeper than that. That was Yahweh telling you. It goes deeper than that. That was Yahweh revealing to you who he is. He's dependable. He's faithful. He's committed. * He's unchangeable. He keeps his covenant. He don't sleep around on you. He don't do anything to you uh that's not right. Uh he doesn't commit adultery. Therefore, when he writes that in you, you become like him and you will be the covenant. Hallelujah. [Music] Hallelujah. He wrote his nature on that book. And one day when you stand on your feet, I'm done. * And one day when he begins to write that and stand on your feet, when he begins to write that on you, all he's writing in you is himself, his nature shining through you. Let's give Yahweh a praise here tonight. Hallelujah. Father, write your book in us. Somebody say, "Father, write your book in me." Say, "Write your story in me. Make me a living epistle. * Read read of all men." Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Oh, I see I see a golden pin. I see a story being written inside of those here tonight. I see a story being written on those of you in the Zoom class. There is a story being written inside of every one of you tonight. It is the story of the nature of the lamb. * It's the nature, the second nature that's coming into every human being in this under the sound of my voice. Thank you, Father. Father, take that golden pen. Father, write on these parchments. Write on these parchments tonight. May your grace and mercy keep calling us out of Babylon. Oh, may your grace give us power over sin. * May your grace give us dominion over sin. In the name of Yesua. Amen.
