Mar Mari Emmanuel – Stop Looking Back: God Is Giving You Another Chance Today

0:00 Definitely there is one true divine living God who created everything, everyone, visible, invisible, tangible, spiritual. Definitely there is one true living God who created all. When humanity drifted from God for their ignorance, for their transgression, for their sinful nature, by breaking God's word, what happened?

0:28 Satan....

0:30 Started controlling the world you see satan was an angel before when he was in heaven he was an angel now this is absolute truth please.

0:43 Do not be deceived by satan.

0:47 Through this world where they come some and say oh there is no god oh there is no hell oh there is no heaven oh there is no angels oh there is no satan it's all in your head looks like they don't have much.

0:59 Of a head Please pay attention.

1:06 When this angel was created by God, see when Genesis 1-1 says, in the beginning Elohim or Elohim created the heavens, heavens here means angels.

1:20 So what was created first? The spiritual realm, angels. Angels.

1:26 So when God created the angels, this angel was the highest rank in the angelic orders called the cherubim.

1:35 This angel, the Holy Bible tells us that.

1:39 This particular rank, the cherubims, are full of eyes inside and outside. Biblically speaking, the eye represents knowledge. So this angel was full of knowledge, very knowledgeable, very smart, very wise. Much smarter, much wiser by a hundred million miles when it comes to human race. This angel decided to establish a kingdom and a kingdom is a government. tried to establish a kingdom in heaven. He said to God, I will raise my throne above all the stars and make it equal with you. You are king, God, and I will be also king in heaven. God obviously would never ever allow such a thing to happen, to happen. To have in heaven. There is only one sovereign authority. And that is God.

2:44 This angel. Because of his doing. Was kicked out. And one third of the angels of heaven. Dragged with him.

2:54 So he failed to establish this kingdom in heaven.

2:58 Guess what? He came down. And established it on earth. Now they became.

3:07 From this Lucifer to Satan, from these angels to foul spirits. So Satan established his kingdom on earth and it became the kingdom.

3:23 Of the world ruled by Satan.

3:27 When you live in a country, you get accustomed to the way that country operates to the way that country walks, to the way that country moves, to the way that country lives, to the way that country dresses, to the way that country speaks, you get accustomed to it and you become a.

3:51 Citizen of that country.

3:54 So in the kingdom of the world, since it is ruled by Satan, what did the Lord Jesus say about Satan when he came? He said, Satan was the father of all lies. And Satan was the killer of mankind from the very beginning. These two characteristics were clearly stated by Jesus Christ of Nazareth.

4:23 All glory to his holy and mighty name.

4:25 He is the father of all lies and he is the murderer of all humanity, mankind from the very start. When the Lord came, prior to giving His first, what we call the royal speech, prior to giving His first royal speech ever on the face of this earth, which is Matthew chapter 5, the Mount of Beatitudes. Blessed are the poor in the spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted.

5:07 Blessed, blessed, blessed.

5:10 This was the royal speech ever given by Christ the King.

5:16 Before the human race.

5:19 Prior to coming to explain and reveal what his kingdom is all about, he fasted 40 days and 40 nights.

5:31 Matthew chapter 4.

5:36 The Lord Jesus was tempted or put to the trial by the devil in three different ways. If you are the son of God, say to these stones to be bread. That's to do with the body. If you are the son of God, throw yourself from the pinnacle of this temple because it is written that God will charge his angels to come and carry you lest your foot stumbles against the stone.

6:00 That's to do with the spirit.

6:03 And if you are the son of God, then I'm going to give you all the kingdoms of the world and their treasures if you bow and worship me. The Lord Jesus literally said to Satan, be gone, Satan. You shall serve the Lord your God and him alone you shall worship and him alone you shall serve. And that's to do with the soul. The human being is made out of body, soul, and spirit. What is the enemy of the body?

6:31 Lust. What is the enemy of the soul? Greed. What is the enemy of the spirit? Pride. Self-false glory, self-pride. The enemy of the body? Lust.

6:46 And lust was resembled by the bread but it's not Baalbek Lebanese bread or Italian or French. This bread is to do with everything that is materialistic.

7:00 And what is materialistic? This world The Lord Jesus was.

7:06 Tempted with everything to do with this materialistic realm.

7:12 Satan failed. He was put to shame.

7:16 And then he tried to put the Lord to the trial when it came to greed, which is to do with the soul. And all kind of greeds. And Satan failed once again and was put to shame. And then the third one, he tried to tempt the Lord with self-glory. And he was put to shame again by the Lord Jesus. The Lord Jesus came out triumphant. He won against the lust of the flesh. He won against the greed of the soul. And he won against the pride of the spirit.

7:48 Body, soul, spirit. This is the human being.

7:52 Jesus Christ, when we invoke the name of Christ, we are saying at the same time, perfect God, perfect man. united in the person of Christ. Christ is the person that unites both divinity and humanity.

8:11 The human side of Christ was.

8:14 Exactly like us, except he never thought of sin, never committed sin.

8:20 That is the only difference.

8:21 Otherwise, in every way he got tempted, just like any and every human being gets tempted. Now before Christ, coming and establishing what the kingdom of heaven is all about in chapter 5.

8:34 In chapter 4.

8:36 He went through everything he was about to say in 5 and lived it. Because if you say things and you don't live those things that you say, might as well don't say it. You need to lead by example. The Lord Jesus led this life by example. When he said, blessed are the poor in the spirit, he was the poorest of the poorest all. He lived everything he preached.

9:10 He lived everything he preached. Now when you read, for example.

9:22 Chapter 5, verse 21.

9:26 He says, you have heard that it was said to those of the old, you shall not murder and whoever murders will be in danger of the judgment. But I say to you that whoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger.

9:44 Of the judgment.

9:47 And then he goes in chapter 6, it is all do not kill. Do not do this, do not do that. You've heard there is an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth, but I say to you, if somebody strikes you on the right cheek, give him the other. If somebody takes you by force a mile, go with them another mile. The Lord Jesus in all five and six and seven, he is trying to do one thing. Teach us how the kingdom of heaven functions.

10:20 You see, when we lived in the world, there is a kingdom in this world and the ruler of that kingdom is Satan. Satan is the father of all lies. The world is full of lies. I don't know, have you noticed yet or not? Satan is the killer of mankind from the very beginning. There is a lot of killing in the world. There is a lot of deception in the world. There is a lot of lies, murders, deceptions, destruction, you name it, darkness, evil.

10:58 Why?

10:59 Because it is ruled by one who is all evil, all murderer, all liar, all deceiver, all destroyer.

11:08 What are you going to get?

11:10 Whoever chooses to live in the world for the world, guess what? They'll speak the language of the ruler of the world. So what is the language of Satan? Foul, colorful words.

11:30 Foul language.

11:32 If any human being think that they are smart enough to invent the foul language, they were deceived by Satan because Satan is the master of foul language. Foul language is an invention of Satan, no one else. So when you live in that kingdom, you will be used to the way the kingdom speaks, the kingdom walks, the kingdom lives, the kingdom dresses, and the kingdom functions. You will become part of that world. So when people live in the world for the world, they will eventually end up lying, killing, deceiving, destroying people. and speaking colorful words. When you lived in Italy before coming to Australia, you spoke Italian. You walked like a stallion. And you lived like an Italian. But when you came to Australia, the language is not Italian,

12:44 it's English. The way of living is different to Italy. The way of living is different to the Middle East. The way of living is different to Asia, to Africa. Because you came to a different country and you lived according to how that country operates. When you live for the world, you'll become worldly. You will speak worldly, you will dress worldly, you will behave worldly, and you will do everything worldly. Whatever country you live in, that's how you're going to be. Accustomed to everything that country teaches you and gives you. So the Lord Jesus came, he said, the kingdom of the world destroyed the human race. Because the one who rules over the kingdom of the world is the father of all lies and the murder of

13:49 all human race.

13:51 Satan. So that's why I came.

13:55 To give you the opportunity to be delivered from the kingdom of the world and brought into the kingdom of heaven.

14:04 I established this kingdom with my own blood.

14:08 And I don't have the time to tell you why. Maybe another time. I came to establish it with my own precious blood. It took my life to give you a new life. When I established the kingdom of heaven, I started choosing people from the world who were receptive to my calling.

14:31 The issue is not with me.

14:33 The issue is with the people of the world because they were used so much to Satan. When they saw Christ, the light of the world, some said, We want to be in the light, but some said we hate the light. We are too used to darkness. We are too used to Satan's poisonous ways. We don't wish to give up on them and live in the truth. So they remained in the light. For so God loved the whole world that He gave His only begotten Son so that whoever believeth in Him shall not perish but have everlasting life.

15:14 John 3.16 Jesus Christ was sent by His beloved Father for the entire world but the whole world did not receive Him but those who received Him gave them the authority to be.

15:26 The sons of God.

15:29 So when Christ came He spoke people heard see the gospel today People heard his voice. People heard his word. Some accepted it. Some rejected it. Those who accepted it. The Lord Jesus today says. They are the wise men. Who built his house.

15:55 On the rock. And the rock is Christ. You find that in Malachi.

16:01 In the book of Malachi.

16:03 Malachi. Christ is the rock of all ages.

16:05 And in 1 Corinthians 10, when you read from verses 1 to 14, and the rock that went and followed the Israelite nation, and the.

16:13 Rock was Christ. So who is the rock? Christ. So those who received the word, heard the word, and accepted the word, and then lived the word.

16:26 They were that wise man who built the house on the rock, built the house on Christ himself. The rain came, the waves, the storm, the wind, the cyclone, strike the house was unshakable, unbreakable.

16:40 Why? Because the house is you. The house is you, my beloved son and daughter.

16:45 When we build ourselves on Christ, all trials that come against us will not shake us because we're built on God himself. So the Lord Jesus came established the kingdom of heaven and he said just like the kingdom of the world has certain rules and laws and certain ways of living so as my kingdom has laws because it's a government I'm the king so there has to be laws and regulations and way of living you see my kingdom of heaven is built on love and The foundation to the kingdom of heaven is love. The foundation to the kingdom of the world is... You're probably going to say hatred.

17:44 Yeah? No. What is the enemy of love? It is not hatred. It is disappointment.

17:57 The enemy of love is disappointment. You know when you love something and at the end you get disappointed with it? When you love someone and you love them so much you've put all of your hope on that someone and at the end that someone turns out to be someone that you thought wrongly of. You thought they were it.

18:22 But they shocked you at the end. And disappointed you at the end. So the enemy of love is disappointment. Any and every human being that lives for this world and then gives it everything that they have, they put all their hope on this world, I guarantee you at the end, 100% they will end up disappointed. Where are all the Hollywood celebrities?

18:53 Where are they?

18:55 So many of them started in the church, ended up with Satan. So many of them started so innocently, ended up being so evil.

19:10 Disappointment.

19:12 Because the world, what it does, Satan, what he does, he laughs in your face and says, hello, please come on in.

19:23 Enjoy life. You only live once. You're still young. You know what?

19:28 You know when you go back, if you are looking for God, let me tell you, now is not the time to look for God. You're a teenager, for God's sake.

19:39 You're in your 20s.

19:40 You are in your prime youth. Now is the time to enjoy life.

19:45 You know what?

19:46 I tell you, when you end up a pensioner, in your 80s, then it is the time to go back to God and say, God, forgive me.

19:55 I am sorry. I repent before you.

19:57 But in the time, in the meanwhile, go for it. Look, everybody's doing it. Everybody's going out naked in the street. Everybody is dancing with everybody else. Men with men, women with women, and in between, and I don't know what else. And then you go and have fun. You want to go and drink?

20:15 Drink. You want to gamble? Gamble. You want to lie? Lie. You want to steal? Steal. It's a free country. It is freedom. You are free.

20:24 And even the United Nation, which is the only place that is ununited, says to you, human rights, you have the right to choose whatever you want to be, whatever you want to do, however you want to do it.

20:38 You're free. So go and have fun. And the boy goes and has fun.

20:45 And at the end, ends up disappointed because that's what we will get.

20:51 From the world if we choose to chase it. Disappointment.

20:58 And so many people end up destroying their precious life which was given to them by Jesus Christ of Nazareth. So the Lord Jesus came. What he spoke was totally opposite to the world.

21:20 Why?

21:21 Because the world is darkness and he is the light. The world is the lie and he is the truth. The world is death and he is the life. The world has no way and he is the only way.

21:38 Obviously darkness hates light. Obviously lies hate truth.

21:45 Even Winston Churchill, the good old Prime Minister of Great Britain during World War II, he said this powerful statement. He said, I thought the most powerful weapon was the atomic bomb, but I've realized now the most powerful weapon in the world is the truth. And this is why it is quite often being surrounded by a bodyguard of lies.

22:11 The world surrounds the truth by a bodyguard of lies.

22:18 Why?

22:20 Because the world can only give what it has and what it receives. And the ruler of the world is Satan. What Satan has is only lies, never truth. So when the Lord came and spoke, spoke the truth. The world hated the truth. And look at it nowadays, today, today, the 21st century and today. The moment you invoke the name of Jesus Christ, all hell breaks loose. The only one who is seen as judgmental, discriminative, is a Christian.

23:01 And a true one, not a fake Christian. A true one.

23:06 The moment you invoke the name of Jesus Christ, The world goes crazy.

23:10 Why? Because it is ruled.

23:12 By Satan and Satan despises the Lord Jesus.

23:15 Why?

23:16 Because he is the only human being, perfect man, who crushed his head on Calvary. Satan overcame all humanity except one man, Jesus Christ of Nazareth. He thought he could win with this man, not realizing he crushed him in his weakest moment.

23:36 Hanging on the cross.

23:37 And Satan in his most powerful moment. The weakest crushed the strongest on Calvary on the cross. That's why he hates Jesus. And he hates everyone who carries Jesus in their heart. I thank the Lord that Satan hates me. Otherwise I would have been in deep trouble.

24:04 And by the way.

24:06 Even those who think Satan loves them, Satan has no love.

24:10 In him to give.

24:12 But he's just deceiving those people, thinking that Satan is doing everything for them. No, he is luring them in till the moment releases them and they can go to perdition where there is no comeback. So the Lord Jesus came with the kingdom of heaven to give you a new lifestyle. A new kingdom, a new way. The way you dress, the way you walk, the way you talk, the way you behave.

24:42 Is no longer wa-a-wa-a-duv-duv. It's no longer that.

24:48 I used to go, when I was in the world, I used to go to the club. When Christ, through His precious blood and grace and mercy, called me out of the world and brought me into the kingdom of heaven, I started going to the church, no longer the club. Before I used to swear, now I praise God. Before I used to lie, now I speak the truth. Before I used to kill, now I kill myself to comfort others.

25:16 Who did it? God.

25:19 The true living God, Jesus Christ of Nazareth. All glory to His holy and mighty name. So now the Lord is teaching us, my beloved, how to live In his kingdom, on earth, the kingdom of heaven. The foundation of the kingdom of heaven is love. The foundation of the kingdom of the world is disappointment. And by the way, disappointment is the number one killer of love. The moment you're disappointed, love is gone. And the moment love is gone, life is gone. And the moment life is gone, what's the point of existing? Might as well kiss it goodbye. And that's why some people end up committing suicide. The foundation of the kingdom of heaven is love. Well, we've got a problem now We were too much used to the world.

26:36 You see, the world will teach you one thing to do.

26:39 Prove your existence. Prove yourself. Don't ever be a fool. Don't ever be weak in front of others. Be a man. Be a man.

26:50 So, if somebody says one thing to you, nasty, you say a hundred times more worse. If somebody punches you once, punch him a hundred times. If somebody tries to degrade you, you sweep the floor with it.

27:06 You sweep the floor with it. Prove that you are.

27:09 The man and no one can touch you. You come to the kingdom of heaven. It says the foundation is love. You have to deny yourself, not prove yourself.

27:22 Totally opposite.

27:24 That's why Christians struggle. You see, it's easy to talk about Christ. Very hard to live with him. Easy to talk about him. That's why millions of Christians preach. But how many out of those preaching are living with the Lord?

27:39 Very few. Very few. Very few. Because it is easier said than done. So the Lord says you need to deny. You know why?

27:54 Because for true love to exist, you have to live for the one you love. You can never live for yourself. Why problems happen at home Why problems happen at church? Why problems happen everywhere? Because everybody wants to live for themselves. Everybody wants to live the way they want to choose to live. They are no longer choosing to live for the one they love because the love is not genuine.

28:18 But when the love is genuine, even if you are hurting, even if you are being degraded, but because you love the person so much, you are willing to go and do things you would never do for nobody, but I'm doing it because I love you.

28:36 I love you. So love equals sacrifice. And what is sacrifice? Self-denial.

28:46 Because you can never live for the one you love until you deny yourself. Because you are one thing and the person you love is a totally different thing. They are different in the way they are, the way they think, the way they talk, the way they behave. Jesus Christ, you have to live Him. You can't live with Him.

29:06 You need to live in Him. And the only way to live in Him is for me to die and Christ to be my life. Christ lives in me, no longer me. Because love has to give in order to take. And a person that is selfish, which is the world, a selfish person can never give. They will always expect to take. But a true loving person always gives.

29:38 Let that ask you.

29:41 And we see this more clear in parenthood. Parents sacrifice not knowing if the children, once they're grown-ups, are going to respect and honor this sacrifice or not. They do it, why? Because the love is from the heart, genuinely. And he says, the foundation of my kingdom is love. You need to deny yourself in order to live for me, Christ. You need to love me. The way I loved you, I died for you. Are you willing to do the same?

30:17 I sacrificed my life for you. Are you willing to sacrifice your life for me? Because that's the true genuine love. It's a two-way street. I live for you and you live for me. I scratch your back, you scratch my back. You were there.

30:29 For me, I'll be there for you.

30:33 I'm no longer living for myself but I'm living for the one who loved me from the beginning and showed his love perfectly on the cross. Then the Lord says the way to my kingdom is the truth and the way of the world is the lie.

30:52 I mean look at the world.

30:58 They meet, they greet, they talk, they laugh but they laugh at each other There is no love.

31:05 There is no honesty. There is no integrity. There is nothing. They're just noise pollution.

31:12 They talk in parliaments and in congress.

31:17 What a bunch of losers. They're all acting.

31:23 The world is one big stage where everybody acts on everybody else. But the Lord said in my kingdom, no such thing. When you come into my kingdom and be my followers, my citizen, my children, you better behave in the truth. You better love one another truthfully. When you say to your brother, I love you, you better mean it because God is watching.

31:50 God is listening.

31:52 Don't say to your brother I love you and behind their back you don't.

31:56 God will not accept it. He will discipline you for it. That's the truth.

32:09 And to remain in my kingdom you need to be a little kid. You need to go back and be a little child. We've said it so many times. Who is the wise man Who goes back and becomes a little child?

32:29 My beloved, I'll leave you with this.

32:31 You're in trouble now because it's a never-ending story. And Elias is not here either. When you face the Lord Jesus, you better face him as a child. When you face the world, you better face the world as a wise man, not a child. But when you face the Lord, you better face him as a child.

32:53 Why?

32:54 Because if I stand in the presence of the Lord and I say to the Lord, I have.

32:59 Preached in your name, the Lord will say, I did it, not you.

33:03 If I say to him, I built a church for you, he will say, unless the Lord builds the house, no one can build it. And if I say, I prayed on someone and they got healed.

33:16 He will say, I am the true healer. I did it, not you.

33:21 If I say I'm holding the cross, he'll say it's mine. If I say I'm sitting on the throne, he'll say it's mine. If I say I'm celebrating the mass at the holy altar, he'll say the altar is mine. The body and the blood is mine. Everything is mine. The crown, the staff, the cross, the church, everything.

33:37 Including you, bishop. You, all of you are mine. All of you are mine. So what do I do?

33:49 When I go to the Lord, Even if I've preached and the whole world listened to this preach, I got to the Lord and I say, I'm a baby. Because no wisdom can ever withstand the wisdom of Christ. And no intelligence can ever withstand the intelligence of Christ. And no perfection can stand the perfection of Christ.

34:20 Nothing. Whatever you put next to Christ, that thing becomes nothing. Because he is everything.

34:30 So you go and say he'd be a baby. A baby that cries after daddy. When daddy leaves the room and leaves the baby behind, it is World War III. The baby starts crying and turns the whole house upside down.

34:43 How could you leave without me?

34:45 I want to be with you, daddy, wherever you go and whenever you go and however you go.

34:51 I don't care where you go, dad. I don't care who you meet, dad. I don't care how long you're going to be, dad. I don't care when you're going to come back, dad. I don't care about the place you go to, about the people you meet.

35:03 About the time you spend all I care about I am in the bosom of my dad I'm with him that's what matters
