"The Origins of Sin" RESCUE RADIO with Marjorie Cole
Everything God created had an opportunity to “transgress” against God’s appointed place for them, whether it was a star, an angel, or us! Transgress means to cross the line.
How many of us have set boundaries and drawn the line, acting out of fear and the need to control, and transgressed against the Law of Love in our relationships?
Join us as we explore the origins of sin and its roots from the rebellion of Lucifer in heaven, the impact on humanity, and the divine plan for salvation.

0:00 Music. Rescue Radio, because there's a war for your soul. Yes, Father God, we know. We know about the war. We know about the end of the war, too. We thank you, Lord Jesus, that you came. You set the course, reset the course of mankind when you died on the cross, and you brought us to the place of hope and revelation and rescue, redemption.
0:45 Father God, I thank you for sending your son, Jesus. I thank you for taking on the task of giving your blood for our lives to be rescued. And I thank you for those who have received and accepted that gift of salvation, Lord God, and those who are yet to do that, that you'd encourage their hearts. Thank you for giving us power over all the power of the enemy, power to bind and loose and tread on serpents and scorpions. Father God, thank you for giving us that authority as you back that authority with your power in Jesus' name. I bind the powers of darkness that would come against us, against this rescue radio, against the people who are listening. I bind you, enemy. You're exposed. You're defeated already. and we are going to stand and having done all, we will stand according to the word of our God.
1:25 And I thank you, Lord, for divine promises and protection that no weapon formed against us will prosper, that no word said, no deed done, no action taken will be able to be used by the enemy to bring forth any shame, trouble, or reproach to us, those who work for us, pray for us, and love us, and our families, those who've come to us for help in prayer, that they'd be encouraged, encouraged, encouraged with answers to prayer, miracles, Father God, and healings, divine healings, Father, in Jesus' name. Amen. Amen. Well, today we're talking about our, we've been talking about relationships, right? We're talking about our relationship with sin. Yeah. And I want to start withâ Do people have a relationship with sin? Yeah. I think sin binds usâ It's kind of in us, right? Kind of entangled.
2:05 We're entangled in it. It's interesting. So he's going to write a, he's going to read a very interesting scripture here that seems to have nothing to do with sin, and yet we're going to show you how it has everything to do with sin. Okay. Psalm 82.5, they do not know, nor do they understand. They walk about in darkness. All the foundations of the earth are unstable. I'm reading that from the New King James Version. Old King James says all the foundations of the earth are out of course. So there's something really wrong with everything in this world, in this universe. Except, of course, the Lord himself. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, the thing is, we have to go back to the beginning, and so we're going to look back at where sin actually came from.
2:51 Because a lot of times we talk about sin in our particular lives, and don't steal, don't lie, don't cheat, don't commit adultery. We know all that. We know all that stuff. You already know that in your spirit already when God made you. He made you to know that right from wrong stuff. But going back to the book of Enoch, which some of you have already looked into and some haven't, We have to go back to understanding what Jerry just read about things being out of their course, you know, foundations of the earth unstable, things disrupted, people not knowing what's going on. You know, the enemy, we always call it the fall of man. Well, the fall of man, the original sin, actually started in heaven when Luciferâ Fall of Lucifer.
3:34 Yeah, when he rebelled against God. And what was the rebellion? He did not want to be who he was created to be. And we have a veryâyou know, he wanted to do something different. He wanted to be something different. He wanted to be God, actually. And so I'm going to read a couple of verses in the Book of Enoch. And I think some of you are getting more interested in learning about that book, and there's a lot in that book that is very helpful. By the way, the book of Enoch is a biblically endorsed. Non-biblical book that, you know, some people say it should have been included in the canon of Scripture, but it was not, but it's got a lot ofâ It was not because it wasn't found. Yeah, and another thing, too, there's nothing in the book of Enoch that takes away from the Scriptures as we have them.
4:19 As a matter of fact, I'm going to read a Scripture out of Enoch that you can read in Jude chapterâthere's no chapters to Jude. So Jude and Peter, actually, they cut and pasted from the book of Enoch. Here's reading out of the book of Enoch, which Jude wrote in his book. And behold, he cometh with 10,000 of his holy ones to execute judgment upon all and to destroy all the ungodly and to convict all flesh of all the works of their ungodliness in which they have ungodly committed and of all the hard things which ungodly sinners have spoken against him. This is out of Enoch, but you can read it in your own Bible, in the book of Jude. So kind of a correlation there that's very interesting.
5:00 But right following that, there's this recommendation, Observe ye everything that takes place in the heaven, and how they do not change their orbits. And the luminaries which are in heaven, how they all rise and set in order, each in his season, and transgress not against their appointed order. That last part, they transgress not against their appointed Lord. So how would a star sin... Only by transgressing its orbit or its appointed order. So when things are in order, they're operating in the way that God created them to function and operate, and therefore they're being obedient. They're being, you know, they're illuminating the sky. They're keeping the seasons.
5:40 The work of God is being carried out with the summer and the winter, and the water, the clouds, the dew, the rain, everything is abiding or obeying what God created for it to do, except the angels who first fell, And when Lucifer fell, of course, he took a bunch of them with him. And 200 of them decided that they wanted to be humans. They wanted to have families. So they took after, they abducted, kidnapped the beautiful women and took them for their wives. And out of that rebellion came the sins that they brought upon us because they not only sinned against the women, you know, raping them, violating them, going in onto them, and then creating these, out of this came these giants or Nephilim, men are renowned, these carnivores that began to eat the people.
6:33 But they also told them secrets, taught them enchantments and root cuttings. And it's through these things, believe it or not, through this information which we were taught to crave and want. Remember, the tree of the knowledge of good and evil was a tree of knowledge. And they wanted the knowledge, they wanted to know the hidden and secrets, deep workings of things so that they could manipulate and control things. So knowledge is power, but knowledge of certain things... You know the lord originally didn't really want us to know evil right right he didn't want us to know he wanted evil was existing in the form of fallen angels and so forth but he wanted us to just basically to know good and to follow good but we want to know more and the thing is too there's more to know of the lord and his ways and his creation but then what happens is that we get and into the place of knowing evil.
7:34 Well, you know, the thing isâ And practicing evil. The core, you know, impetus or the desire that leads us to witchcraft is the desire to know more. They wanted to know more. That's why they go to fortune tellers. That's why they seek the omens and the occults and the things. But going back to the Book of Enoch for a minute, it says, and these fallen angels, and there's names for some of them, And they taught the women charms, enchantments, and root cuttings, and made them acquainted with plants. The giants turned against mankind. They devoured them. They sinned against the birds, the beasts, the reptiles, the fish, and devoured everyone another's flesh and drank the blood. So they were cross-pollinating the kinds, sinning against the birds, the beasts. They were manipulating God's divine DNA and order and creating these monsters and freaks and chimeras and centaurs and all kinds of things.
8:28 But it was thinning against the order that God had put in the earth. And we're still doing that. You know, if you look at transhumanism and so forth. Oh, yeah. We're going towards that same goal. We're moving into the same thing. And it's basically what we're looking at here today is the trans. Rebellion against God. Well, transgression of God's order. In other words, going too far, going beyond the order of things, not only for our lives personally, but for the whole creation. We're messing around. With the creation, messing with the weather, messing with genetics. Even really going into outer space because the Bible says heaven is the Lord, and heaven belongs to the Lord, and He's given earth to the sons of men.
9:20 Well, as the story progresses in the book of Enoch, we see that the fallen angels, some of them decided to take these women and teach them the secrets. And because the men were striving to learn this, they wanted to know more. Again, going out of the order of God, wanting to know more, taking control for themselves. And so they were striving to learn these things. And so they brought forth these kinds of things that were out of order, that were not created by God. And out of them, the cross-pollination came the giants. The giants brought forth when they died, their evil spirits became now what we know as the demons on the earth.
10:01 So what happened is when God called this thing to order, he sent the angels to deal with it. He sent one of the angels, let's see which one, Raphael, to lock up the fallen angels into the place of darkness so that they would be removed from the people. And the whole earth was corrupted, it says, through the works that were taught by Ezel, and he was the one who taught them instruments and weapons of war. The whole earth has been corrupted through the works that were taught by Ezel. To him ascribe all sin. To him ascribe all sin. So the beginning of the transgressions that we're all worried about, that we're caught up in, the sins, transgressing the law, rebelling against God, hating one another, killing, murdering, all these things came from the beginning.
10:48 And the beginning is where we need to go to remember that if you don't know your beginning, if you don't know where you come from in all of this mess and all this story, if you don't know that you're created as the sons and daughters of the Most High God in His maidenness, image, and likeness, you will not, you'll be looking at the middle of the river, the river of sin, transgression, corruption. Injustice, and you'll never look at the beginning, the headwaters of where this thing came from. And so Satan always makes it look like you're bad, you sinned, you're guilty. And of course we feel guilty. And why do we feel guilty? Well, because we're made by God and we have a divine nature that hates sin. And so when you sin against yourself, when you sin, you're actually sinning against yourself. You're coming against your own divine original nature to be made the daughter, son of the Most High God.
11:34 And so of course you're gonna feel guilty. So Satan then uses that guilt to make you, punish you, to bring his demonic judgments upon you, to make you feel unworthy and bad. And he's trying to take you down so that you don't know where you came from, you don't know who you belong to, and you don't know why you're here. And so, sin, when we sin, when we remove ourselves from God's divine order for our lives, we transgress against the order God has created for us, then that is really the definition of sin. Right. The Bible defines sin as transgression of the law. Now, not only the law of Moses. Right. You know. But the original laws. The Ten Commandments, the original laws of creation, the law of, well, it boils down to the law of love.
12:26 The law of love and the will of God. So, yeah, that's where the defilement comes in. Yeah, because every sin is a sin against the law of love. Every injustice, every offense, every retaliation, every time you try to get even with somebody, every time you get bitter, every time you practice witchcraft or try to control someone, you are sinning against the law of love, and you're creating an injustice that promotes more iniquity and more pain and more trouble. Right, and our sinning is primarily against God. It's against God primarily, and it's against one another, and it's against ourselves. So again, you go back to when God gave this law, law of Moses and all the details of that, it was like God is saying, okay, here's my order, right?
13:17 And I'm not here to control you. I'm here to make it protect you. And the thing is, too, if you stay within these parameters of my guidelines, you're going to be okay. You transgress, you go beyond that. You open yourself up to the powers of hell. So God was kind of forced to give a rule and order, law and order, to bring order back to the human race after everything went crashing down, after Adam and Eve sinned. They were deceived. They bit into that fruit because it was enchanted, because they were enchanted, because they looked at it and said, this is beautiful to the eye, it is good for food, and it will make one wise.
13:59 So they already decided that this thing was worthy to be eaten and consumed because of all of these enchanting things. And to note these days, Semjaza, the fallen angel, Semjaza's name, he was in charge of enchantments, wood cuttings, and charms. Now, this is exactly what has happened to the human race. You wonder why you're so spellbound and stupefied and can't get up and do anything, get out and get going or anything? Because of the enchantments. Because, you know, an enchantment is something, a charm is something that beguiles, bewitches, deceives, and it uses beauty. The enchantments were set to create feelings of great pleasure. They were drawing people into the transgression, into the sin, to cross the line, step over the line, by drawing them with feelings of pleasure or delight.
14:46 And that's exactly what people seek now in all of their self-comforting measures to get away from the misery, get away from the pain. Enchantment has to do with sorcery. It has to do with false comforts, with hypnotism, with occultism, voodoo, black art spells, and charms. And charms are an interesting thing. And God talks a lot about charms, actually, in the book of Ezekiel. And so charms are a real thing. And so charm is something to think about this. All of us have been seduced in some way and pulled into a relationship with a, you know, a spell. And cast a spell is cast over many times, many over of us, where we're drawn into a relationship.
15:28 Something that's a charm is something that is giving delight or arousing admiration. Attractiveness, or beauty. So again, Satan is using beauty and pleasure and pleasant things, beauty and pleasure. Pleasure things, to draw us into a place of agreement where we're stepping across that line and we're saying, okay, so many relationships with human beings, men and women, boys and girls, young people, they're operating under spells and they're being charmed and they're being deceived and they're being bewitched and beguiled for the very purpose of destroying their integrity, their life call, their destiny, their purity, because Satan has access to the charms.
16:12 And not only that, but he uses the root cuttings, which are the drugs that enhance the power of the charm. And so people don't realize, you don't realize that there's more going on in your life than just trying to be good. I mean, why do you try to be good? Why do you wanna be good? Well, because you're made by God to want to be good. That's why, so being good is such a powerful motivator. But the thing is, everything down here is full of mud and snakes in the snake pit. So trying to be good becomes futility, really an effort in futility. It's interesting here in Ephesians 2, verses 1 and 2, And you he made alive who were dead in trespasses and sins, in which you once walked.
16:54 He's writing now, of course, to believers. In which you once walked according to the what? Course of this world. According to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit who now works in the sons of disobedience. So among whom also we once conduct ourselves in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind. Lusts of the flesh. And were by nature children of wrath, just as others. So that desire, the lusts of the flesh, is to know more. Lust means to have more, to know more, to indulge in more. And so we get into that place of cravings and we get out of control. Indulge in more stuff that go against the Lord. Against the holiness.
17:35 The course of this world. So the course of this world, you think of the course, right? The path of this world. It's a course. It's something that you follow. Yeah. You know, it is a golf course. You follow, you go from one hole to another. Well, see, I think we thinkâ That's what happens with people. They go from one hole to another. It's like holes of sin. Yeah. stuff so basically how's your golf golf game right we are programmed, We're programmed in so many ways. We're programmed by our media. We're programmed by our family background. We're pre-programmed and programmed by our body of death, the sins of the generations.
18:20 The vibrations, the frequencies, the food, the soil, the air, the water, the contact with other people. It's like, you know, it's almost like who has a chance of breaking out of that programming? And that's what salvation is. that's what deliverance is, is breaking out of the course of this world. Yes. Why? Because it's so difficult to break out once you're saved. You can't break out on your own. Then the Lord God sent the Holy Spirit to dwell inside of us so those who are followers of Jesus have that super access to the power to follow Him. But, you know, really when you're talking about our relationship with sin. There's nothing. thing. I mean, we can't go just a few sentences talking about man before we have to address the issue of sin.
19:03 No relationship is void of that sin, that offense. Sin is everywhere. We live in the context of sin everywhere. Injustice, being ripped off, being lied to, being manipulated, being witchcraft practiced against us. We're just basically in this. Now, you talked a minute ago about the gulf course and the course of our life. I don't believe most people realize that you have a divine destiny. That is, God has given you a life, you a plan, you a path, a course, and just like the stars and the luminaries and the celestial bodies have to stay in their orbit, God wants us to find that course, walk in that course, and be fruitful and faithful to Him as He has designed us to do and be and live in that place.
19:52 Salvation and deliverance is getting out of the course of this world. Right. It's all screwed up, everything that's out of course, out of God's perfect order that's transgressing. God's designed order. So what happens is salvation brings us into a whole new course. It says in Ephesians 2, 8 through 10, For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast. For we are his workmanship, okay, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.
20:36 Which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them. What's that mean? That means there's a course for our lives, for each of our lives. There's a plan, there's a purpose that God has for us. Just like, you know, we think of Jesus, God had a special course for him, you know, on earth now for three and a half years about teaching, praying, healing, delivering. He stayed on track. Loving, going to the cross, being raised from the dead, being raised to the right hand of the Father. He didn't look to the right or to the left. He stayed on course. He followed that course. And that's the thing, too, is in that course that we get on when we receive Jesus as Savior, and we're led through that course by the Word of God and by the Spirit of God.
21:22 The Spirit of God is to lead us through that course. And that course, the Bible says that the steps of a righteous man are ordered by the Lord. So he is, if we let him, he is guiding us. Detail after detail after detail. And it's something that we don't have to get all hyper about, but we just simply acknowledge the Lord. Follow Jesus. In all your ways, all your ways, every little detail, acknowledge Him. And He shall direct your path. And if you recognize that your life, there's a destiny. There's an origin, there's a reason, there's a purpose, you are an individual, unique, created by God, you have been gifted with certain things that God wants you to do and perform and declare on the earth as part of the extension of his plan, his plan for reclamation and redemption of the earth, that gives you more meaning and purpose.
22:13 Most people are just bouncing around in their lives, being beaten up on their path. It's like if you're going on a journey and you walk, you're taking this journey and you've got your backpack or whatever you've got, and all of a sudden along the road you get slammed, you get assaulted, you get waylaid, robbed, ambushed. Yeah, this is exactly what people don't realize. They don't realize that today some of you are just in an ambushment. You've just been ripped off, robbed, left for dead. Because, you know, and it's not because of a sin necessarily. Yes, there was probably some deception and you probably took a wrong course, but it wasn't a wrong course because God already knew it was part of the plan, part of the path.
22:54 But the enemy kind of says, yeah, you're bad. You did something wrong. And now God is punishing you. God is not punishing us. God is helping us. God is the one who wants you to win. He's the one who wants you to make it safe to heaven. Why would he defeat himself by knocking you down on the road to teach you a lesson when it's his goal to make you strong? I know the Bible says a lot of places, oh, God tested them, God tested them. Well, God tested them because they tested God, because they failed to obey, they believed the lie. They followed the devil, they followed lust and perversion and pagan idolatry, and they did what God said don't do. And why did God say don't do it? Because God says, if you do that, you know, you're going to get in trouble, the devil's going to grab ahold of you, and you're going to, you know, serve him.
23:37 And so they were testing God, and then God had to let them go because they had a free will. So God has a perfect will, he has a permissive will, and we have a free will. And because we have a free will, God has to often act in his permissive will as opposed to his perfect will and so we're getting with testing you know it's like a teacher that gives a test in a school he wants to see what the kids know well yeah he wants to see that but he doesn't want to see them fail he really wants to prove that they're able and qualified to take the next step that's exactly it so with god's testing god's testing is to just to prove prove something it's.
24:17 To prove that he's able to keep you, basically. If an engineer designs a piece of equipment, it's tested. And it's proved and approved, right? As it's something that works. It works good. It's put under pressure. It's put under pressure. And it's something to... That it passed the test. Passing the test. And God wants us to pass the test. He doesn't want us to fail the test. He doesn't want to fail us. Yeah. And so we're going to talk a little bit more about the specific sins. Just going to cover one of them today. You know, there are four types of sins. Basically, sins of omission, commission, assumption, and presumption. We're just going to talk this morning about the sin of omission for a minute.
25:00 Those are things that we fail or refuse to do, both knowingly and ignorantly. And omitting something, not doing something that you should have or was right for you to do, was required of you to do. And Jesus scolded the Pharisees for failing to honor their parents by making the excuse that they were giving those gifts instead to the temple. And so they had disregarded or dishonored their parents, and the Lord scolded them for that. He says, Pure and undefiled religion before God and the Father is this, to visit the orphans and widows in their trouble and keep oneself unspotted from the world, which is a far cry from what those religious leaders were teaching in his day. But the sins of omission, one of the things that, you know, I do a lot of counseling and I want to just kind of draw something to your attention, those of you who are believers.
25:50 Many people, you know, have sinned by drawing boundaries that God never authorized. You know, there's the transgression against the divine order of things. But on the other hand, we are tempted to draw boundaries, make boundaries that God never authorized. These boundaries are like you draw a hard line. There's a vow to withhold. We're not going to, you know, we're not going to, you know, these people are off limits. You know, for example, you cut them off. Yeah. And a lot of times, people, and I've seen this, they're calling themselves Christians. Which means they're Christ-like or Christ followers, and they have drawn a hard line because of fear.
26:30 They have had, you know, altercation or a run-in or squabble or something with their parents. You know, this is especially after children are married and they have their own wives and husbands, but they cut off their parents, and this is exactly what Jesus is talking about, honor your parents. So they cut off, they draw a boundary because they're afraid, because they're angry, because they're upset, because they're offended. And so they cut off and they call themselves Christians. But that's not what Christ would have done. He did not cut off people he didn't like or didn't like him. He never didn't like anybody. He loved everybody, but he never cut people off and he never cut them off from access to his love or his forgiveness or mercy. But we do that all the time.
27:11 So we're falling into this Satan's plan of divide and conquer. Remember that's where he says, I'm not coming to bring peace, Jesus said, but a sword setting two against three is three against two, father against mother, daughter against mother-in-law, blah, blah, blah. Well, this is exactly what the devil is trying to do. That was not Jesus's intent, but he says, that's what's happening because I'm here. I'm the divining line and people are having to choose. So Satan divides and conquers and he sets us up to be angry, upset, withholding precious things that are rightfully the other persons from them. For example, if you are a parent and you vow to hold back your children from their grandparents because you're afraid, because your wife doesn't like them, because they're controlling or whatever, for whatever reason.
28:00 That is a sin of omission. That's a transgression against the divine order, which are parents, children, loved ones, and other families stay together in God. But I understand there are times when it's appropriate to separate. And this would be an example. Let's just say you're fleeing from parents who are practicing witchcraft or practiced occult rituals or sexual abuse. By all means, you need to separate, keep your children away from them. But for most of you, that is not the issue. The issue is one of bitterness, fear, control, and witchcraft, where you're cutting yourself off, you're letting your wife, you're letting your husband decide we're not going to see my parents, your parents anymore because we don't like them. Because why? Because why?
28:44 You're not honoring them. You just think you want to control, you want things your way, or maybe you're jealous. Maybe the child likes the grandparent and you're feeling insecure about that. Well, I'm telling you something very seriously, that this is on the mind of God. He is very unhappy with people who divide their families over relationships. This is not okay, unless there's vile sin involved where it needs to be cut off, where there's physical, sexual abuse, immorality, stuff like that. But this, for most of you, you're calling yourself Christians and you are not being or abiding or being Christ-like in the way you're treating your parents. This is a sin of omission. You're omitting, you know, owe no man anything but to love. You're pulling away your grandchildren from access to their grandparents.
29:30 And I have had so many clients, I can't tell you over the years how many grandmas and grandpas and mothers and fathers have come weeping that they can't, they're cut off from their grandchildren because of what? For nothing. It was really a nothing. And so the rest of their life, they're cut off from that godly influence, that godly support. And by the way, moms and dads, you do need your parents' support. If you have that and you're cutting that off and rejecting that, then you're shooting your own foot. Because you know what? We all need one another in this world so much the more now as we see the evil days approaching. And so if you have done that, and I'm speaking to someone, I know you're listening to me right now. I think you're even in your car listening to me. But you know what?
30:15 You need to repent. You need to stop this. You're falling into the devil's trap and you're letting your wife or your husband control you. You need to go back to honoring your mother and father. That doesn't mean you have to obey them and everything they do and say, but honor is different than obedience. You're now required to honor them, which means you don't have to obey them. You have to make your own choices because you're of age, but at the same time, you keep honoring them, which means you take care of them, maybe in their old age. Maybe some of you are great at that. You've stayed by their bedside until they were old, but don't deprive your parents of their grandchildren. And I really believe that this is a sin people don't think of as a sin. As a matter of fact, let me read you a whole bunch of sins that we don't think of as sins at all, and they're sins we commit all the time.
31:01 I'll just read a list. See if you got any on this list that work for you. Forms and practices of sin that do not first appear sinful or wrong or deadly. Examples of these kinds of sins would be worry, denial, murmuring, ingratitude, self-reliance, self-indulgence, doubt, criticism. Minimizing sin, excuse-making, coldness, isolation, indifference, apathy, religious practices. And the substitution of our own works for surrender to God. These are all sins that you would not think of as sins. Worry, fear, anxiety, denying God, disobeying with an excuse.
31:45 Well, you know, I'm giving all my money to the temple now so I don't have to take care of my aging parents. These kinds of things won't fly in the kingdom of God. And so examine yourself. Let the Holy Spirit examine you. Get back on course. Be righteous, pure, holy. Be true to yourself. Walk in the destiny that the Lord has called you to. And of course, the fallen angels, the enticers, the enchantments, the chimes, they're all going to be there all the time. But you can put your eyes on Jesus Christ and allow the Holy Spirit to guide you. You can walk in the Spirit and not fulfill the lusts of the flesh. The flesh is the mind, will, and emotions that feel, think, and try to figure things out through confusion. And this brings me to my last point of the day, and that is how can we operate in the kingdom of God and discern and advance the kingdom of God by acting under the notion that there are three kingdoms, that there being a third kingdom, the junk box of I don't know.
32:43 This is the junk box of chaos and ignorance and uncertainty and offers no hope and no concrete answers, no solutions, no resolve to sin, injustice, or to exalt the truth. So how many of us, we know, what did Jesus say? There's heaven and hell, in or out, for me or against me, hot or cold, light or darkness, you know, God or mammon, all these things, one or the other. And yet we have convinced ourselves there's a third kingdom of, I don't know. It's an accident. It's an alien. It's mental illness. Jesus said, by their fruits, you shall know them. And if there's three kingdoms, that does not work. So there has to be only two kingdoms. It has to be in or out, yes or no, God or the devil, from heaven or hell.
33:26 And so when Jesus said, by their fruits, you shall know them, what is the fruit of the third kingdom? Chaos, confusion, ignorance, and apathy. So what do we need to know? We need to stop buying into the world's system. The God of this world has taught us that to believe, well, it's just an accident. It's, I just. Fate, what? Yeah. An alien, bad luck, mental illness, you know, and we just, okay, now I have, I've been diagnosed with whatever. And now I agree with that. I submit to that. You have just been, you've just been had, you've been slimed, you've been lied to.
34:08 Get back into the order of God or the devil, yes or no, good or evil. And you say, well, that's pretty black and white. Well, it is pretty black and white, you know? You say, well, that's pretty judgmental. Well, I would say it's pretty wise because God set it up. And so today we're just gonna thank God for what the Lord is showing you. May I pray, Father God, that these words would go into our hearts and minds. And I see it like a harpoon with an arrow, a hook on the end of it, that when they would harpoon the whales to try to draw them out. But this harpoon is like the Word of God going into your heart, and it's going to hook in your heart until you act on it.
34:48 You can't run away from it. You can't get away from the truth. You're going to have to submit to God, and you're going to have, through that, then fall into the place of getting back into the divine order of God's purpose for your life and how you live your life in regard to other people. And so, Father, I want to just do this right now. I want to forgive all of the mothers and fathers that have cut their parents off, from seeing their children or grandchildren because of offense, because of witchcraft, because of control, because of fear, because of insecurity, because of a word that was said, because of bitterness and unforgiveness. I forgive them. We forgive them. The Bible says, whoever sends you forgive their forgiveness. So we forgive you guys for what you have done, and we release you from that judgment and turn the judgment of this matter where you've been seduced and enticed by the enemy to separate from your families.
35:41 We turn that over to the high court of heaven. And we ask for the testimony of Jesus Christ to testify on your behalf before the court to deliver and heal and set you free from the enticements and the allurements of separation and division that come from Satan. And Father God, I pray now for the return of the prodigals, all the return of the prodigals. You said before that notable day of the Lord, the hearts of the fathers would be turned back to their children and the children to the fathers. So Father God, for those mothers and fathers who are weeping and crying and waiting and wringing their hands and weeping at night because they want to see their children, they want to have a relationship with their grandchildren, I pray that you encourage them, and I pray that you would deal with this matter according to the judgment and rule of the Most High God in the court of heaven.
36:27 Father, we ask these things in the name of Jesus, and according to your testimony, Lord Jesus, let it be done, and that the demons that have broken relationships and bound relationships and caused this bitterness and offense be exposed and removed from the hearts, the souls, the minds, and the relationships of the people who have been entangled in this vicious, terrifying, divisive thing Satan has set up in their family's father. Release them so the families can come into the place where we will all know that we are Christians by the love that we have for one another. Amen. Amen. And then there's the book, Doing Relationships God's Way. There's a chapter there, in fact, a chapter there about our relationship with sin. Yeah, actually there is. So everybody that's listening here would do well if you don't already have that book. I mean, everything about life is relationships. It is.
37:14 And relationships have gotten so wacky. In our world. Yeah. But, you know, God's order for relationships is so important. And He has given us the order in His Word. And all your books are Bible-based and they're loaded with Scripture, but you put it together in such a powerful way. So, doing relationships God's way, you get it on Amazon plus Oh, and on liferecovery.com. Yes. Well, the Lord be with you, encourage you, set you free, and have a wonderful day. Music. I have an emergency. What is your location? Oh, my God.
