When Light Grows Dim: How Comproise Blinds The Church

Don't.

J.

Good morning. Good morning. What's happening guys? Happy Wednesday to you all. Are you woke up this morning with joy, with gladness and your heart that this group may be covered and ready for day. So see some new faces. Michael Chapman. I know, brother. Welcome. Good to see you to have you.

And Sean.

Welcome. Thank you. Good stuff, man. Good stuff. All right. L Good morning. Shan. Good to see you. Travis, everybody on this morning. Good to have you. Good to have you. I am in Granberry, Texas last week Island, New Jersey. I had an awesome week with family since my father he celebrated his birthday today. Well the P Day with Pastor New Jersey. Who talked to you before I told you that some mystery training I got was from my church New Jersey. And the church was in the hood in or New Jersey. And they w up get a new building and just to see God and got provided. They had a church that they w up buying. They parsonage there and got provided where they had a by a bigger church that's out of this hood new like the hood hood. But as the church have been for 11 years this big church you imagine in Jersey, Oregon, Jersey some of the bigger older churches and financially be able to purchase that the other building and God's like providing and now wor they're doing and the missions that they're funding is just remarkable. When this hanger go there it was the smaller little brother church that was being funded by some of the other churches go out in histories. So tomorrow we'll see what they're doing. First weekend had a night of prayer and worship. And this woman came to the church. They recognize that in the where would be and she was just ring her heart out. And she told Pastor A thank you so much for what you doing in the community. And $31,000. And then so got I think I'm operated with his hand up. Yeah.

I was gonna say I grew up in Memory.

Express. Okay. It's quaint, but it's got it's hillier. So I'm joining the senior for sure. When I was in high school. Okay, cool. Good stuff. Good stuff. For those of who are Last week we talked about a few things talk about Halim but we talked about Second Kings chapter six where Elisha servants where Elisha Ram that God. And he was able to see the spirit realm. Then he was fearful when he woke up in the morning and the king Syria his elders had surrounded Elisha and servant servant freak out. And fear prevented him from seeing things from gospel of you which fear often does. And then Elish prayed and naturally carnal terrorists running home then chariot of fire that God was providing God was protecting and ultimately with all those soldiers bind and they were. They were safe they. They had nothing to worry about. And we got into you know battling in darkness and stuff talk about how we barely bars the spirit realm and our awareness or often awareness of the spirit realm. And I don't know about any of you guys but I had I'm not one to say often like oh warfare warfare we're always engaged in battling warfare always the world were wearing and warfare for me after coming off the break week away dirty just spent a couple days before I took this trip just a prayer and just you know floating or during Cloud 9 and I checked this hotel. It feels so dark in here. Feels evil right? And here we go. This whole decorations and everything like that. When I walk into a room just felt evil. Every hotel room I going to I'm always praying right because you don't know who in here. You don't know what they're doing in there and any monsters back ate dinner you know getting ready for bed tonight early and I just struggled to fall asleep. I just felt this like anxiety. I felt like I just feel a peace and turn in I wound up music got up at some point to pray even more got up to just open scripture. Somebody wanted a good passage to go through and claiming the promises of Psalm 91 that's protection, right? His provision all that Psalm 91. And I lay back down and feel like uneasy and I died off for a few minutes. The help said I was woken up by what seemed like the. The sound of silence. It was something starting me but all of a sudden the air in the room was off. You know I like to have the room fan finally but the air was off. I set up brown voice for my iPad on YouTube and that was off. It was just this eerie silence. I was like what the heck is going on? So I look at my iPad and you know power didn't go out or anything. It was just nothing. It was on, it wasn't playing anymore. So I started back up. I turned the airs low back on and I tried to lay back down and it felt uneasy that I heard this crash hallway. I was like what's going on here? And the I don't know what it was but I like two in the morning and I didn't know what it was. I felt my heart kind of like just all my knees like panicky and and I I have no shame saying I like feel like There was this spiritual attack. So. Okay. When I feel my heart going. You guys know I had patient procedure back in May. And the only reason I wear an apple watches is it tracks mar well okay. Mars are feel like it's going. Let me do a little EKG test. I think it's called eag less. Yeah, did that. Well I looked my black. It was black and I charged it. They forced black on me. And so then get a phone open. How you reset now watch. I do that somehow everything I believe the air it was just. It was freaky. I can't strong you are Lord. I don't care how much season you are. Whether the spirit presence it's eerie, right. And enemy very quickly wants to remind us and accuse us about being who God says that we are. Not being more than conquerors. Not possessing the power that granted us. The power to triple sword to cast out demons at all times. True. Right. And he's able to so that seed and believe it for a second. That's why you guys told right? Just a little bit. Then he sees that an opportunity. So ultimately I thought of the Nate just insert her. And it was tough. A lot of times from the feel to my presence, you know, you just rebuke it and you. You clean the authority that God giving you. But it was a. A rough night, couple hours asleep. And I didn't feel the furring power that I usually do when I rebuke these demons. Got up in the morning, had a long day yesterday. And you know, I reached out to a couple people. I conversation with my wife. She prayed for me. Then I wrap up plastic dunar and get him into the car to drive back to the hotel. I'm like okay, I gotta get complete tonight. I'm most excited to get wake up this morning with you guys. As soon as I open the car door for anybody who's been in Texas. You know, the bugs down here in Texas, they're different, right? I don't even know. They're classified as bugs. They're like small birds, right. Some of these bugs down here are just ridiculous. As soon as I open the door to get in answers, I finally like breathe at the end of the day back to hotels, go to bed one of these with wings. Just as soon as that one door. I don't know. And there's time where if there's ever a video that captures the way I react around bugs. You guys would block me. I be humiliated, right? So I flew from the video on YouTube about recording for that professional new guy and all that and if a customer ever slides out of my mouth it's probably because a bug has okay, so pop up and breathe. So I call Lui. I'll stay outside the car like the attack is on Last night this little demon has flown into my car and I can't see him and stop for five minutes. But this thing help me safely and I did. I didn't hear that across the S bar right now. However, as I driving I was thinking okay I know the tech last night and last week we're talking about that King 6 where El Ser was able to see in spirit. And it crossed my mind that maybe perhaps in that moment saw the angel so versus chariot of fire. Right. I thought maybe in that instant I was able to see literally that right. Which I don't know I I I think I'll call demons but I really I literally see an attack like an arrow being fired from because it makes sense where and fly right in. But I got to hotel Satan sound but it just me to primal last night about my eyes being open to the spirit realm. And we prayed last week I talked about it but if our eyes open to the spirit realm it would be great to see all the angels that came around us before they even see one dart from the arrow from the from the enemy that fired at us.

Right?

Just one arrow. What that look at this whole time and closer we get the word the more fire the dark more planet. So let's say I'm a big baby when it comes to bugs and nothing out here. Then when I get to car today I see this big dead beam just laying there on the floor. Okay Zach. Yeah.

But not only that she is crumbling the Holy Spirit. And so.

Thank you. Thank you. I will my life they freak out. You think like yeah I I will claim all the authority over these vows and Tagus at all times. And anyhow I back to 1st 3rd my experience with this blind demon for sure. So I wanted to transition from last week where we saw fear blinded Elijah's servant. Want to talk about how compromise blocks us as well? And if you guys for those who are with us earlier in the year when the book of Revelation one of those seven heritages that Jesus wrote to and was the compromising church and they had a lot of of BAAL to infiltrate the church and compound is a very dangerous thing. Other times where there's good harmonized compromise right. Daniel and Shadrach and bed go they have to compromise a bit for peace. But they did compromise what was really important. They didn't Compromise their faith and compromise what they ate when food sacrificed to pay gods they didn't eat that food. But compromise where fear will instantly bind us compromise us is it slowly us there's a sword inter King Bahashat he was the king of Judah and King Ahab was the evil king of Israel at the time. And he went to Atlanta for more power for allies. We have all these cross running nations that are trying to invade us both Syria and at the time he said okay well if we can join wars as lock arms we could gain strength. And ultimately what happened if you guys know story that's when King may have 400 prophets and pretty much said hey motherf what the Lord to do and they a false word and then they called out Ayah and king I don't care actually faithful to and he he shared whatever it was the Lord was knew that. So Josh knew that and this is 1822 and said yeah this is a good idea Josh that he compromised and still locked armed with Ahab. And ultimately what happened is they won battle and Ahab was killed with he's in the wrong place at the wrong time but a long time that was he ways ways into his marriage who married Ahab's daughter. So long time will be faced with and it just turned out to be compromised. Right? If I do this what would I have to compromise? What are my core values? What are the things that are non negotiables for me that I can't. I can't breath from? Even if it was a good opportunity. I can't compromise at all. In other words that I want to use in Deuteronomy 5 verses 3233 says Therefore you'll be careful to do as the Lord your God has made you. Carefully do as the Lord God has made you. You shall not turn his eyes to the right, hands to the left shall walk in all the ways which your Lord ask me to do that you may live and that it will be well with you that you may prolong your days the land which you shall possess. So obedience sustains us in our spiritual life in our direction compromise spiritual life it will because people like we don't have priority that we do possess. It's not so much this version of Old Testament. You know Exodus and then Deuteronomy. Exodus has 10 commandments. Deuteronomy reiterates those 10 commandments. But this isn't the same world sing aligned with God's voice, his ways and his will. In the same principle as us. We test post cross days because we look at compromise and what that does, I believe that's the church is a state that's in because of compromise. You know, you have pastor like Philip, a fire brimstone preacher, if you will, where you don't see a lot of fire brimstone preachers. And he's very popular, but he's popular. Sometimes he will call out folks in his own congregation and he's preaching when he's talking about sin, when he's talking about things calling out sin, everybody in the church is like, yeah, amen, amen, amen. And then he put his head no, I'm talking to you, I'm talking to you. But we'll have a lot of pastors and preachers and teachers in this day and age that solely serve God and fear God and don't have fear. If there's a pastor who's afraid of seeing something, open your mouth that's truthful, that's in scripture, afraid that may offend somebody, afraid that, you know, the person may leave the church and that person doesn't need at all. We need to have fear of God, not fear of man. And if more pastors almost made their business to preach down their congregation size by preaching truth in last days, right? They just want to hear that the good parts the you know, give you all message of how good it is, how anointed you are and all that. But Paul said, hey, I'm free from because I'm not shown to declare the entire council God. The whole council God. The whole council God. And that's why we do go through books of the Bible, expository teaching. You teach the whole council about you cover every issue, every topic. There's nothing even in the political realm that's talk about today that wasn't for a right. So we talk about fear blindness as opposed to compromise ling us. Fear comes from PR of times, but compromise comes from persuasion. Okay, Fear will blind us instantly. But compromise slowly dulls us. Slowly d us. I think about this that the enemy from the beginning, from the time they bargain, he can't have time to figure out how to slowly dull our spiritual awareness to bring this place where we compromise, right? And all of us, yes, you want to divert us. Yes, you want to steal, kill and destroy 100%. But oftentimes he plays a long game with it. Because if I could just get an entire nation to become delicious, if I could just veer them off path, maybe those folks still are God forgot as they start to infiltrate and conform to the world little by little, you know One generation from them, two generations from them, that they could be lost. They're gonna have God in life and swap with Josh, right? You start compromise, you start to allow, right. The maritime world. If you're still married to the world, okay, maybe you're gonna get heaven if you're. If you're happening in world but your kids so far off track by then. Enemies play the long game when it comes to fear. Can't but compromise, passivity. Compromise produces passivity. And the last thing, the last thing God wants is a passive church. Not called be passive. There's no neutrality in the in kingdom, right? There's no neutrality. We're either in the thinking of light, the king of darkness. It is very black in that dark. And John's missile, he. He. He characterizes everybody, all humanity. Your father is either God or devil, right? So child of devil. Fear causes it mol us. This causes picture, right? Compromise. Because we don't want to be in fearful state, right? We want to appease man, even if it means disrespecting God. Fear leads to defeat. Compromise leads to deception. Deception. So fear blind some moment. Compromise blinds us over time. One is a storm that fear that very impactful and very in moment. But then compromise is slow, slow decay. And I think we see a living church. I think that one of the biggest issues the church has is biblical illiteracy, right? Because if we do stay in our word, we read, we study the entire council of God. And I was pretty clear on karmas. Karmas caused us to stop putting our trust to God, our finances. We start to see the world from a more carnal point of view. Absolutely, absolutely. And says Jesus was tempted by Emmy and he was after he's fasting four days. It is written. It is written. It is very hard to battle Emmy towards zir when we don't know the sword possesses, right? As much as you know scripture is to know your hearts, right? When I had that, that spiritual attack two days ago. Yeah, there's a moment where like that goes on now, right? You also know what to declare. You also know what scriptures to read. But Jesus the power Jesus, even if you don't really know, but that clearing name Jesus being social about the name Jesus no matter what we I asked her influence went up on Friday. So actually a couple weeks ago episode that was name and Riley shared story of when he was written out the Lord he saw this, this thing on the wall and it was just like it was a spirit and he just reve it and cast it out named Jesus. And that thing left, it fled and he was like I was barely in one with Lord. He resorted to what he knew when he was power in the name of Jesus. Ephesians 5 has a bit of passage there. But that for once darkness in darks battle are later in the world literature have no fellowship with unfruitful works of darkness. So have no fellowship with unfruitful works of darkness. That's not about legalism Again goes back to what we talked about last week. It's lawful for me, but it's beneficial for me that church In Revelation chapter 3 now it says that you hold fast. So I'm claiming Jesus, I'm a Christian believer. I show up to territory that you allow the doctrine of Balaam, right? You allow it. You allow things that aren't true to church. And we need to hold a lot. We need to stand when it comes to truth and need to be about truth about truth not just today. This is our truth. The world is the truth. This is our truth. We're all because we if we actually have a heart God and heart people which are the man all the all the laws of Old Testament boil down to love God love people. If we truly love God, truly love people then we can't sit back and not share truth with God. Even when the truth hurts, sometimes the truth hurts. If you ever somebody it be painful, it could be painful, right? It's something that you don't want to do other person is going to see they're not going to take well they're going better than be sure that when you do it's always good to remove the law from your eye before you. If you walk around with logging be sure that if you're going to correct somebody one it's bad witness because if you're a hypocrite, right, you correct somebody. But if your lifestyle is you're grieving and that words are going to be received by any means. So when it comes to this compromise idolatry is a big way that compromises Christianity. And we know first amendment is to have all gods, right? So all gods. If there's another God in your life other than Jesus Christ then that's adultery God that means some great God is like that of God himself, right? And then shall I give yourself part image and likeness of anything that is in heaven that's not earthly. So no idols. But it's idols are always crafted so we have no other gods but Jesus have no idols though commandments give me idols, then we have any God in our lives. Jeremy 5 reiterates those commandments in Exodus 20 then Leviticus 19 more that do not turn to idols nor make for yourselves multi gods. I am Lord, you're not so creating idols. If it's oldest days of carving these images or anything like that. But turning towards idols. Turning toward them. Meaning if I turn towards them and we all deal with, no matter how stupid we are, things we read and burn lots of eyes, the flesh and primitive right Things we're always going to contend with. We're always, you know, we're. We're either raptored out of this place or we die. We're snacks to turn to any idols in our lives and whole. 7 Corinthians 10:14 Therefore flee from idolatry. Save them bottom of my ox tree, right? It's not this idol worship. It's not only to do part of Jesus statues. It's anything that competes. Anything that competes with our allegiance to Jesus Christ. First John 5:21 wraps up that epistle. Keep yourselves from idols. Amen. Keep yourselves from idols. Paul even talks about that if we enter any idols in our life, it's an open door for demons, for my presence. It's just an open more invitation for them to come in. Because what he sees even if. And I'm not saying they're not going to be tempted by things, right? We're always going to be tempted by things more value in our lives than what we should that idolatry and that idolatry will lead to this low compromise darkness. You get darkness. So one way you go down that road of compromise, then it becomes easier to compromise on bigger issues. If you think just compromising a small issue now that that's the enemy will know that, right? God will after the enemy will do that. So if you compromise on a small issue, then you're just opening up to a compromise on big issues. When we see pastors falling, right? Like how can a pastor who preaches the word God who loves the Lord, fears the Lord, serves the Lord like is a model of Christian how does a pastor like that one may fall for something like that. And to start with big compromise, right? It's not that you start with smaller conceptions and all of a sudden these things that seem so vague and sinful that you would never do. You never can act NAFTA seem so compromising. You made possessions along the way. Paul says clash three, five Therefore put to death your members which are on earth. Fornication, uncleanness, passion, evil desire, helplessness, which is idolatry making the enemy. But via allegiance. That equals idolatry. And we have idolatry in your life. You're compromising. And those small compromises will turn into big compromises. So I want to open it up. If anybody has anything to add to dimension to that. I want to get your thoughts what you have to say about it. Because I think one of the ways we've compromised that you made it okay for the church. I'm not saying you guys, not saying me myself, but when the church is silent about things, that's compromised. Right. When church doesn't speak up about issues. There are biblical issues on churches. These passive compromise. And there'll be warning in scripture about being silent. Right. Especially the church. We're still about. I know the verses had her hand up. They always did a flyby hand up. So then the jump that is okay, go ahead.

They never fly into that anyway. And I think. And then you know, he said so And I was about another thing with for. It's also like for example I'm starting to see where I have a lot of knowledge about that and be like I don't know. That's where knowledge also helps you. I think given to counter arguments. It's important that we get rewarded into scripture so that we can on hand. But that when the animators attempt to have the scripture.

Yeah. I think it's okay for you to say I'm not sure. Right. Because real is if you are somebody and you always have an answer even if it may not be brand because you're not 100 sure then you know what they're saying just doesn't sound right. Then like I'm not so sure about that. I'm not exactly sure the Bible speaks on that. But right there we have some of our friendships that. Right. We have. We have technology where we did Google verse so many times I think of a sword in the Bible even just in my own personal life. What is that Right. And I think if I was saved for technology I would be stuck on.

Like.

I have the source of scripture for absolutely everything that comes into my head and. But I don't think there's anything wrong. I don't think it's necessarily exceeding if you don't have the exact answer. But also the way you communicate with loving grace. If. If you're on something to learn, if anything that you doubt what you're talking about at all. That's. You lose it all because they spark it out. They may be good. Right. But you know scripture has the answer. You know that there's no predictions in Scripture you know that the answer is somewhere so just to concede where you're doubtful and that's how like soul you can call it deconstructionism has kind of come out where somebody just has a doubt. Let me go down the rabbit hole of deconstructing my faith and all these people are now saying God isn't real. So I'm not saying that too but be sure of what you're sharing and okay if you guys ask me sure like I'm not saying no here's some Bible like back my hand but I think I know a lot of you on this call not all of you. You're mature. That doesn't sound right. That doesn't sound right. So just don't of big that's that's good. Okay I just gotta say that really.

Appreciate what you're sharing with today I'm honestly struggle with some of this since my my knees karma is a really dangerous thing. I've always sometimes inability to compromise things and it's just like a lot of times what you gain for not mind is worth it and but like you said you're even in situations where you like any compromise so I really really enjoyed this word and kind of had a little bit I was reading Skin King and so it just says the mentality of these guys was never it was never like but just have pre interformation that they're gonna do whatever Lord ask them to do and sometimes you know like I love that integrity.

And.

I wish that he had more of the culture or the because it almost seems like they didn't want and so it's not always just busy but I love the group that we've seen.

And.

That'S exactly what it is so I just gotta give it a little more Give a little more and give it a little more and I think.

You know.

Yeah so you so anyway I really like this word because something a lot.

Of us don't really put it in.

Perspective and we really nerd to be taking our lives and let me grow and reach the as normal people who also have their and then there's but that's it. I appreciate it so at Halloween or.

Harvest compromise.

So we've been searching for we haven't had a pastor for two years and that's an interim pastor this guy isn't super progressive. We were absolutely asked him we scored separate I didn't know why but they're like politics you gotta do a full sermon on it but he still comments right. And though Finland and they can Change discernment if he didn't notice it or something. Right. And when he says, I want you guys to bow your heads before God, the spirit of light, whatever day you perceive the universe to be, everything's all right. Everything's all right.

Don't make waves.

It's not coming right. They don't make waves who have taken over the country. No one wants to say anything because they're too busy. And so I'm just praying we gotta do that. And so I truly hope. Yeah.

Amen. I mean, I would.

I'm thinking of leaving for 12 years. You need to make the same for your church. You need to save your church. You need to stand up for what's right. Don't sever ties with people you've been, you know, in communion with this entire time and don't have to say to do the fight.

Yeah, it's okay. Whatever you do, you can get that church to be where that church is so far off, where God moves you somewhere else. Because Romans 1:8, like, turn over to a reprobated mind. Right? So that's here, I think whatever. You got to stay. God easily say state. And they're just the culture.

Fun games, activities that are not.

Yeah, well, I'll give you direction, but for sure. Jeff, I want to call. You.

Can stay as close. Guys. Compromise is not about by trying to figure out how to say realm.

Yesterday.

Morning, and I couldn't see or anything, but what was over is I. It was just this, like, I was reading about, you know, perceiving the unseen world. I could tell it was an angel. Like an angel. I couldn't see what it looked like. I could see what I was doing. I just knew exactly where that angel was. And I was in the.

Game, like.

Focusing on it and trying not to.

My problem was the drugs. And she didn't help me. And her perspective is all together. Right. Problem. She was like, no, just. I need to bring this big white. Do the light and what he signs to Savior. Then everything will heal you. For everything. Yes. The drugs is the thing that he thinks he's overcome all of it. I do want to mention, just based on just some of the things Romans 1, Paul talked about. And when sin comes tolerated, which has been within the church here In America in 2025, when sin is tolerated, sin is firm. Okay. It's clear as day when we tolerate, sin confirms. And I was sharing with just through my older kids, they're walking high school, starting with all this, who's gonna be queen in the summer? And 21 we saw what culture was public high school. And probably more so I should say, right? This whole thing with affirming homosexuality likes the enemy, he wins identity. There's people don't know identity, right? It's an identity crisis and it shows it's different ways. And don't. My oldest one to my second oldest who is 25 could be 26 when June high school now. But in the popular kids or to be popular or like guys who are. You're an athlete. You're a small apon out of the top of school, right? Dude. By the time my youngest graduated high school, it's like you're waiting for boys. So just that my oldest kiss in that eight year span of the old woman high school shift to tolerating sand to fully firm said to really accelerate this, right? That's that eight year stand. And Paul in Romans chapter one starting at verse 21. The rest of the chapter we touched on this says that the people knew that they exchanged truth for last, right? So they exchanged truth for last. And they practice open sin. And the open sin was separated. And think about this enemy. He wants us to be leaders as kings and priests. That's who our identity is. Christians lives. That's our identity. So you know your identity as a king. If you. If you don't affirm that then you're not gonna give away. We need to be able to love somebody in their sin. Because you give me entanglement. I can't speak to it, but I can't put my feet right. I just don't get it. Me, I was talking with my buddy who's like hey, even in my busy days I. I don't get same sex attraction, right? It's like I just don't. Yeah, I was maybe the same sex. But it's sin, right? It's sin. You're lost your loss, right? People say I don't know how you can get that right. But sin at the end of the day, if the enemy makes sure our identity. Then our niece who is 12 years old told us that there's furry. They go to a school, they have like. Like they put a ball down perfect. You know, like. So when we like tolerate not as in. But like nonsense like that. That kid who is 12 years old. Who knows how long they thought they were furry. But that person is 16 years old. I was eating them all. Let's do this. But when we just. Right now we're in a culture where everyone wants to offend if everybody. People are what they feel like they.

Are which is crazy.

Which is how we have all discussion about mental illness and that sort of thing. Just the delusion of who we are. But we're in a culture where we sin now. We affirm sin. The church is celebrating sin. And we hear oh they're you know people love Jesus too and you know stuff like that. Let's bring back the word of God. Right. Is there a way to heaven? By all means. But I'm not going to that sin. And we talk about a couple weeks ago. I'm going to sit back while these living their life in sin. And if I work for the people who are in sin. If you cherish with people they stay in their sin. They're going to die and they was in their hands. But if I give you words people and don't share it 89% earlier he says he refers to Ezekiel here tolerating sin. Right. He says you are who you think you are. Right. As far as affirmations there's power in the reasons every day before you go to sleep. Because sometimes there's power in that even if it's not on a godly basis. I want to seek it affirmations over my life. Right. I need to clear. I need to convince myself that no that's true. But how. How's that the affirmations that aren't biblical that are pros of the Bible are truthful. We need to clear those angle of our lives and really start to believe them subconsciously and walk them out. They're power. So affections actually come from scripture. All right. Remarks loading thoughts. And all this being.

That I say I agree with. I think that if you're just talk about so in that sense I think.

And.

They don't look it well then he can return to you. So I mean really what you're describing. So I don't think need be nice about it. But you need to be right.

He's straight.

But to let anyone and something that after sort of was.

And though.

Doesn'T mean to created. So yeah I get feet for thought.

But kind of wrap that up. Yeah. You mentioned a word it's called responsibility. Responsibility? Yeah. Once we know truth we're responsible now for how we live our lives knowing the truth. That's why you know it's not like but a child who is young and doesn't know is old enough to like acknowledge Jesus as Lord and Savior that you're not going to know they're not going to be down to hell because they the responsibility is there. They don't know. Right. But once we know we have to steer that responsibility, then I said was that said. But whatever decision you make, your strength and boldness is squirting that responsibility. You know, like the fire comes out and no truth there, no way with the nonsense. That's going to be like a subtle natural where they crave boldness. So got to pray that ultimate for our guy doing that. Maybe you should suggest the pastor who has the top.

That.

Sermon.

Yeah. And I was actually gonna say that one on one conversation is if his eyes are close to some things, it may just be nobody around him is is willing to have a conversation with him because it's gonna be a tough conversation most likely. Right. You're rethinking, you know, his be whatever. But it could be something where his eyes are open, like, oh man. He's like, I this path and you know, I'm leading the whole church astray. Right. So yeah, God will give you direction with that, but we'll be for good stuff. That's it.

Thank you, guys.

Yeah. 18 love, guys. Your households, your children cover you, protect you all. And I will see you next week, guys. See dreams.
