so you're going to use that opportunity to go and indoctrinate these kids with your street ghetto philosophy

a certain point if you raise your level of income to the status of a rock star then uh-huh that's right

then you got to keep coming up with ways to maintain that status.

I mean, I'm not even saying eat meat, but at least put some cereal in the milk.

Come on.

That's like taking 666, the mark of the beast, and redefining it like Biggie tried to do

and saying, no, it means this or that no six six six you can call it holy six six six six but it's still the mark of the beast convenient whether it's welcome or unwelcome you as preacher of the word are to show people in what way

their lives are wrong. We welcome you now to a true church perspective with Pastor G. Craig Lewis.

Doing the right thing is the first step of becoming a new creation in Christ.

The bad things you used to do are no longer deemed right.

So we discontinue practicing those habits as becoming believers.

Y'all remember the old song, the things I used to do, I don't do no more.

First John 5 and 18 eighteen says we know that

anyone born of god does not practice committing sin but the one who was begotten of god

carefully watches over and protects him and the wicked one does not lay hold on him or touch him

y'all this this is a statement that is so powerful. What John is telling you is how

the devil is able to get you. He says that anyone that is born of God doesn't practice committing

sin. He says, and if you don't practice committing sin, Jesus carefully watches over and protects

you from heart.

And the wicked one can't lay hold on you if you don't practice sin.

Now, if you practice committing to sin, the wicked one can lay a hold on you.

And he can touch you.
