And refused to obey, neither were mindful of thy wonders that thou didst among them; but hardened their necks, and in their rebellion appointed a captain to return to their bondage: but thou art a God ready to pardon, gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindness, and forsookest them not.












The writings bear witness............



Joshua 24:24




And the people said unto Joshua, The LORD our God will we serve, and his voice will we obey.











It is now time to address a few of the tough ones. The majority of the occurrences of this phrase are in the book of Galatians. I want to set a basic foundation for the phrase before we get to these very misunderstood verses. First we must keep in mind to whom Paul is addressing his concerns. He is writing to believers in the nations who have been deceived by some Hebrew believers into believing that works of The Old Testament are required to enter the kingdom of Yah or to stay in the kingdom of Yah. This is in the Bible. The Most High says look, if you walk away from what? My laws, my statutes, I will what? Inflict on you nationally, personally, community--madness, blindness and confusion. Some of the laws they're debating is a sign of madmen. Just madness. They are so proud. Same-sex marriage is now available in this country. What are you proud of? That's a dumb biological decision. Two men cannot produce. Let's go to your biological book. So The Most High says you'll be mad. Madness means you will make decisions that make no sense. Blindness means you can't even see that it doesn't make any sense. Confusion means you think it made sense. What brings madness, blindness and confusion? Simple. Walking away from laws! Don't touch the laws He says. In other words, the secret of success in times of confusion is going back to default. All of us who own a computer know about that right? When the computer begins to misbehave you don't try to figure it out. You shut it down and reboot. All of The Most High's words are reboot words. It's redeem, restore, recompense, repent, revive, reconcile, redeem. He's always saying come back! Reboot. When we want change, we have got to first go back to default to make sure that the change lines up with the manufacturers original state. Default means going back to the original manufacturers state. My telephone was doing something funny yesterday and I kept trying to figure out what's going on. I got kind of confused and then I remembered to turn it off. Some of us have got to shut our whole countries off, just cut them off and say let's go back, let's reboot. Because the way our country is going, the way our city is going we are confused. Reboot. We have got to start again. Fiveamprayer, default means to return to the manufacturer. The Most High created everything, He is the manufacturer. He created the heavens and the earth and the earth is the Lord's and the fullness thereof, the world and the people who dwell in it are also his. So if anything goes wrong with any part of this stuff, He says reboot, shut down, stop and go back. Your future is not ahead of you, your future is behind you. The Most High says come back to your future. It's in default. Here’s a couple of thoughts about the North. The knowledge of direction first requires knowledge of the north. Secondly the nature of change is defined by the unchanging nature of the north. Thirdly, the greatest challenge in life is establishing who's the source of your North? And the fourth one is whoever defines your true north is your God. Oh boy this is why in order for people to change against The Most High's north they have to get rid of The Most High. If you get rid of The Most High, you create your own north. This is why we heard our founding fathers tell us when they were here in the same building they said don't touch the preamble. our present governor said these words he said the preamble is the underpinning of the Constitution. The preamble says this country shall be governed in respect of the King’s principles and spiritual values. That's in our Constitution it's the underpinning. Let me ask you a question: what is the underpinning of this building? The foundation. What's holding it up? The foundation. What's keeping the walls from falling? The foundation. In other words, without the foundation this whole thing just collapses. What they were saying is if you take the King’s principles out of the Constitution, you have no house. Without true north you have another God. Why do you think those who want to violate The Most High's law constantly try to get rid of The Most High? They march the streets, you know? They say things like no religion in politics! What everybody's saying is no Most High in our affairs! They say things like separation of church and state. What are you talking about? That's what they're saying. We don't want The Most High to be in our state. This is a dangerous philosophy. They say things like you preachers stay in your churches and will stay in the government. Are you crazy? I don't want you to address your atheism into intellectualism. Don't intellectualize atheism. We know people get ideas to get rid of The Most High all over! When your country says the Bible is our foundation. That is a good country. Now they're debating these issues of homosexuality--so what are they going to do with the Bible then? Because the Bible says if a man sleeps with another man that's an abomination. That's in that book. That's not my opinion. That's in the book. Don't take it personal and if it discriminates against you then deal with The Most High, that is not my problem. Take it up with The Most High. Sometimes people act as if when you quote The Most High's word it is you talking, but you know I'm an ambassador. An ambassador never speaks their personal opinion. They always say things like my government's position is... So I say to all of you around the world my government position is….. This is what it says in our constitution. I'm afraid for your great-grandchildren. What country will they live in? You are deciding it right now. Everything will change. Change is only possible where something is constant. If you told me you moved, it means that you were stationary. So any change indicates there was a constant. In essence we must be careful what we change and we must be careful because not everything should be changed. Some things were created to remain unchanged, stable and it's my job to scream to the world don't touch that one. In other words, never confuse change with growth.
