ARC ALL Acess 09: Ed Young Jr.

• 7:36 PM: countrycuban Falwell is speaking before Ed Young Jr. comes up. He wants to leave us with a verse... 2 Corinth 5:14. The love of Christ should be ALL that compels us.


• 7:43 PM: countrycuban Topic is: The Local Church


• 7:43 PM: countrycuban Ministry is brutiful. Brutal side to ministry, but also a very beautiful side to ministry. What an awesome oppurtunity we have in the ministry to point people to Jesus.


• 7:48 PM: countrycuban Subject is on betrayal. Betrayal is brutiful. If you're in the ministry, betrayal happens. The Bible is a book of betrayal. Look at Adam and Eve.. that's where it all started.
  


• 7:50 PM: countrycuban You can't get betrayed by your enemies... THAT's what messes you up. Only can the people you bring into your life, betray you. That's why it hurts so much. We all fall into one of three categories... 1-Getting ready to get betrayed. 2. Midst of betrayal. 3. Coming out of betrayal. BETRAYAL HAPPENS.


• 7:52 PM: countrycuban Genesis 37. Betrayal occurs during defining moments. It happens during crucial situations.


• 7:52 PM: countrycuban We all have a "crazar". A craziness radar. LOL


• 7:56 PM: countrycuban Technology can become the tail of a Pitbull the Are you blogging or bragging? Are you twittering or littering? Technology can give us a sense of arrogance and importance if we don't use it correctly!


• 7:57 PM: countrycuban Betrayal comes from those closest to us. The people who betrayed Joseph, were his brothers. There is ALWAYS a Judas at your table. And he is usually close enough to kiss you, then diss you. Be very, very careful!


• 7:59 PM: countrycuban In ministry, there are 3 types of people... 1. People who are "with you". 2. Those who are "for you". 3. Those who "use you".


• 8:00 PM: countrycuban Betrayal is fueled/engineered by envy and jealousy. Jealousy has the word lousy in it. Someone who is envious is on the edge of the ledge of BETRAYING you!


• 8:01 PM: countrycuban Gen 37.4, "they". Who is your "they." Who do you surround yourself with?


• 8:03 PM: countrycuban How do you react when someone is blessed? How do you react when someone has God's favor? In the ministry... pastors and leader tend to struggle with pride more than anyone. When pride walks on the stage, God walks off. Church leaders also tend to struggle with envy when they see the point person in charge or look at other churches.


• 8:04 PM: countrycuban People who betray, don't realize they're betrayers. Usually they have been betrayed themselves, and want others to feel the same level of betrayal... they are confused so they don't realize they are betraying.


• 8:05 PM: countrycuban Gen. 37:14-15. The bigger the dream, the bigger the betrayal.


• 8:06 PM: countrycuban "God gave you eyes, plagarize." -Ed Young LOL


• 8:08 PM: countrycuban Envy is the only one of the deadly sins that does not start off with some promise. All the other sins start off with some promise. All the other sins start off "fun"... besides envy. It starts off ugly, and ends up ugly. We need to learn to rejoice with those who rejoice, and weep w/ those who weep.


• 8:09 PM: countrycuban Gen. 37:23-24. They stripped him of his robe, but they didn't realize that they were stripping the Kimbo Slice of faith. Joseph was ready for the faith fight.


• 8:10 PM: countrycuban Listen... PIT HAPPENS! That pit wasn't empty, it was full of anger, resentment, envy, mistrust, pain. It was PITiful. When someone pushes you in the pit... WHOA! It's a full pit, not an empty one.


• 8:12 PM: countrycuban (Sidenote) Pastor Ed Young Jr. is hilarious! He should have a comedy tour! LOL


• 8:17 PM: countrycuban Betrayal can lead to a total breakdown, or breakout. When you're in the pit, if you become pitiful... you have the oppurtunity to never again give your heart to someone and to stay grumpy.


• 8:18 PM: countrycuban Down in the pit there are some pit vipers... some negative people, don't let them bite you with that negative venom. There are the adders, or the ladders. The ladders encourage you and help you OUT of the pit.


• 8:19 PM: countrycuban When you're in the pit don't ask, "why me?" Ask, "what now?"


• 8:20 PM: countrycuban Potipher's wife was Hotipher. LOL


• 8:21 PM: countrycuban Only three in the Bible who were ripped. David, Solomon, and Joseph. Only them three were described as handsome and well-built.


• 8:22 PM: countrycuban Joseph in the pit for 10 years... was loyal. Get UNDER the authoriy structure that God has put in your life. If you wanna go UP... ya gotta go UNDER. Pit promotion numbero uno!


• 8:24 PM: countrycuban When someone is a betrayer, it's always followed by a bunch of lies, and a bunch of people believing the lies of the betrayer. Watch out for those people! Some people wanna believe the negative stuff about their leaders! The gossssip, the ssssslander, the liesssss, the blogsssss... all the "snakey" stuff!


• 8:25 PM: countrycuban We want over-night sucess, but we are all enrolled in the U. of C. The university of character. God will mold you and shape you, when you get under.


• 8:40 PM: countrycuban Sometimes what a betrayer can mean for evil... God can use for good!


• 8:41 PM: countrycuban Betrayal can bring a staff together.


• 8:42 PM: countrycuban Betrayal can separate the players from the posers. When you get kicked into a pit, turn around and if someone's got a ladder... HIRE them! They've got your back!


• 8:42 PM: countrycuban If you have a Biblical church structure, you can survive betrayal. Have a structure that promotes leadership. Allow the leaders to lead.


• 8:44 PM: countrycuban Bylaws don't matter 'till they matter. When you go through betrayal, they matter!


• 8:46 PM: countrycuban The brutal part of betrayal, hurts the heart. But there is SUCH a beautiful side to it. It will solidify your church and see who is with you, who is for you, and who is against you. God can use the PIT to get to a whole 'nutha level. You can look the devil right in the face when he is trying to strip you, and say, "I'm like Kimbo Slice! I am ready for the pit. Because it's not gonna be a breadown, but a breakout!"
