[0:00]Okay, so part two of the same video but it's the same concept and I've calmed down a little bit.
[0:08]However, I know that when the Holy Spirit wants to express something, you know, he can grieve because the Bible lets us know he can grieve, he can be angry. He can do all of these things, so if he wants to express that, amen. Um, but now, does Jesus, the Lord Jesus Christ, does he recognize today's church? Does he recognize it as his own? Because for example, when you look in church history and you look at the apostles, the original apostles that died for the sake of the gospel because 11 out of 12 of them died well, 10 out of 12 of them died for the sake of the gospel. And, don't I mean, Judas, he was one of the original 12, but you we already know he betrayed the Lord Jesus Christ. But then also when you look at it, um, John, the beloved, he died a natural death, so he wasn't killed for the gospel. They tried to, but he wasn't killed for the gospel, but even when you look at the stories of those men of God and even of the women of God, when you get like, um, when you get a book called like the Book of the Martyrs and you start looking at the people that lost their lives for the sake of Christ, that put their lives in dangerous way. Because why? Because they love the Lord Jesus Christ with all of their heart, soul, mind, and strength, and they love their neighbor as their self. So, when you look at that in church history and you see these people that were willing to put their lives on the line in obedience to the Lord Jesus Christ through love. It makes me think, does the Lord Jesus Christ recognize many of the churches that have uh, that are planted today? Has he planted them or has man planted them? Because the the the defining marker of if the Lord himself has planted them or if man has planted them is the love that they have for their neighbor. Is if the love for their neighbor is not there, if the love for their enemy is not there, then how can we say that this church belongs to the son of God? How can we say that this church is a part of the body of Christ that this congregation, this person that says that they are born again and filled with the Holy Spirit? Though they're over here praying in tongues, though they're over here laying hands on people, though they're over here doing all these things, but they don't love their neighbor and they still hold grudges in their hearts. Does that church truly belong to the Lord? Or does it belong to mankind and it's actually a synagogue of Satan? I feel, I feel the anger and the grief of God at the same time by expressing this. How can we say that we are the Ecclesia of Jesus Christ, the bride of Jesus Christ, but none of us are willing to die on a cross for nobody else? No, we cannot die in the place of their sins, but we're not willing to give our lives for others to lay it down for
