Welcome to Gospel Truth with

0:03

Andrew Wamick, a teaching ministry

0:05

that focuses on God's unconditional

0:07

love and grace. Andrew,

0:09

I'm very thankful to learn from you,

0:12

to have learned from you and to continue to learn from

0:14

you. I just appreciate your boldness in

0:16

the truth. Don't stop it. And

0:18

I don't think you will. And

0:22

now here's Andrew. Welcome

0:25

to our Wednesday's broadcast of the Gospel

0:27

Truth. Well this week

0:29

I've been talking about what

0:32

is Christianity? What is being

0:34

a true Christian? What distinguishes

0:36

Christianity from other religions?

0:39

And I tell you, we've already said some

0:41

really powerful things. I've got this little booklet,

0:43

This is What We Give Out to People

0:45

That Come Forward in My Meetings to Accept

0:47

the Lord or Receive the Baptism of the

0:49

Holy Spirit. It's entitled The New

0:51

You and the Holy

0:53

Spirit. So the first half of this

0:55

book is about what I've been talking

0:58

about this week, about what is a

1:00

Christian, what constitutes truly being born again.

1:02

The second half is about the baptism

1:04

of the Holy Spirit, the gifts of

1:06

the Holy Spirit, specifically speaking in tongues.

1:08

And so we have this book in

1:10

English as well as Spanish and it's

1:12

a free giveaway to you this week.

1:15

I'd encourage you to please get this.

1:17

I've already said a lot of things and

1:20

I hadn't got time to

1:23

go back and put all of this in its total

1:25

context. But I've been focused

1:28

on John chapter eight where

1:30

Jesus was defending himself

1:32

against the people who were criticizing him. And

1:35

it says in John chapter eight and verse

1:37

30, as he spake, these

1:39

words, many believed on him. This

1:42

is talking about the Jews. And then

1:44

in verse 31, then said Jesus to

1:46

those Jews which believed on him, if

1:48

you continue in my word,

1:51

then are you my disciples indeed, and

1:53

you shall know the truth and the truth shall

1:56

make you free. And I've been stuck

1:58

there for the last two days just talking. Walk

2:00

and about what his disciples ship

2:02

versus conversion. and sadly the church

2:04

has chains to there to help

2:06

to make converts not to make

2:08

disciples. Because of that. that's turn

2:11

many many many people away from

2:13

the Lord out. we ought to

2:15

be making disciples. Instead of just

2:17

converts. But I need to move on beyond

2:19

the is. That

2:21

what was the reaction of these jews It

2:24

believed on him. Remember Verse Thirty says it,

2:26

they believed known him And when he said

2:28

if you continue in my word dinner you

2:30

my disciples indeed and ye or know the

2:32

truth and the truth shall make you free.

2:34

What was their reaction. And. Burst Thirty

2:37

three as says they answered and said we be

2:39

abraham seed and were never in Bond Is

2:41

the any man how say as they are you

2:43

should be made free. You. Know this

2:45

is nearly funny to me. That. These

2:48

people said we're Abrahams children.

2:50

We've never been. A bond

2:52

is standing That is so

2:54

ridiculous. I mean the Jewish

2:56

nation as a whole was taken

2:59

into captivity and spend seventy years

3:01

and Babylonian Captivity. They had been

3:03

oppressed by so many different groups

3:05

and it this time the Romans

3:08

were oppressing Ma'am and they were

3:10

living under terrible bond is they

3:12

were at the whims of all

3:14

of these Roman governors and an

3:16

even Herod. The. Jew that

3:19

was placed in power over them. He

3:21

was a puppet of the Rom and

3:23

government's they were in Bond is everybody.

3:25

They were not a free nation and

3:27

yet they said we've never been a

3:29

bondage. Danny Man. That's. Just like people,

3:31

the day that when you say that Jesus was

3:33

to set you free and I think what, what

3:35

do I need to be set free from. Other

3:38

captives have lost their kept his of

3:40

anger, their tech captives of fear, their

3:42

captives of out all and don't been

3:44

on and on. You could go in

3:46

there in bonn install of these things

3:48

and yet people are thinking what do

3:50

I need to be set free from.

3:53

I'll tell you there is no

3:56

true freedom. Without. Jesus.

4:00

And I know that there's lots of people that

4:02

would take issue with that and say, oh no,

4:04

Jesus is what restricts you. Man,

4:06

the only restrictions he places on you

4:08

are because he's the one that created

4:11

us. He knows what it is that

4:13

truly makes us happy. And you'll hear

4:15

people say, but man, you're just married

4:17

to one person. You can't go around

4:19

and sleep around and have multiple relationships.

4:21

They think that's freedom. That's bondage. That's

4:24

a person that can't control themselves. They

4:26

can't hold a relationship together. They don't

4:28

know what it's like to truly love

4:30

one person. They think that this

4:32

free love is love. It's not love. It's

4:34

lust. And you become bound

4:37

to it. Matter of fact, Jesus said the

4:39

same thing to him. In the next verse, Jesus answered

4:41

and said, barely, verily I say unto you, whosoever

4:44

commit a sin is the servant of

4:46

sin. And the servant abideth not in

4:48

the house forever, but the

4:50

son abideth ever. If the son therefore

4:53

shall make you free, you

4:55

shall be free indeed. In

4:57

other words, these people are saying we free. We've

4:59

never been in bondage to anybody. And he said,

5:01

you are the servant of sin. Sin

5:03

controls you. You know, there's

5:06

some people that just think, well, I'm a free

5:08

spirit and I say whatever I want to say.

5:10

And they think that that's freedom. I tell you

5:12

what real liberty and freedom is, is the ability

5:14

to measure your words and to

5:16

say things that help people and benefit people.

5:18

Now there's a time for us telling the

5:21

truth and sometimes the truth will offend people,

5:23

but there's a lot of people that think,

5:25

no, I'm just free to say whatever, what

5:27

it is, you are bound. You

5:30

don't have a filter between your brain and

5:32

your mouth. And that's not freedom.

5:35

That's gonna get you in trouble. Matter

5:37

of fact, the Bible says the same thing

5:39

over in James chapter three, that the tongue

5:41

is an unruly member and it sets on

5:43

fire the course of nature and it is

5:45

set on fire of hell. And it says,

5:47

no man can tame the tongue. You

5:49

have to have God's power to be able to

5:52

tame your tongue and get to where you use

5:54

words only to benefit people

5:56

and not strike back and hurt

5:58

them. There's

6:00

a lot of people thinking, well, I'm free and

6:02

I'm just fine. And yet

6:05

you're depressed and discouraged and you

6:07

aren't enjoying life, contemplating suicide, and

6:09

you have to take drugs to

6:13

be able to cope with things. I've

6:15

watched some movies lately and

6:17

something traumatic will happen to somebody say, I need

6:19

a drink. And they take some kind of a

6:22

liquor to be able to numb their

6:24

senses or to give them courage. Man,

6:27

that's bondage. That is

6:29

bondage that you have to live by

6:32

doping yourself up and doing

6:34

something. I

6:36

know I may be offending some people by saying what

6:39

I'm saying, but I'm telling you the truth. And as

6:41

Jesus said, you shall know the truth and

6:43

it's the truth shall make you free.

6:45

And if you say, no, I don't

6:47

need freedom. I'm doing just fine. I'm

6:50

dealing with depression, discouragement, sickness, disease, poverty,

6:52

all of these things. And I'm free. No, you

6:54

aren't free. You aren't free

6:57

until you let Jesus take

6:59

control of your life. And

7:01

these people took offense at what

7:04

he was saying, and they answered and said,

7:06

Abraham is our father. Jesus

7:08

said unto them, if you were Abraham's children,

7:10

you would do the works of Abraham. In

7:12

other words, they were claiming that they had

7:15

a relationship with God just because of their

7:17

physical lineage. There are people that

7:19

do the same thing today. There are people

7:21

that saying, well, I was raised in a

7:24

Christian home. Our family has been Christian for

7:26

generations. We're all Christians. God

7:29

doesn't have any grandchildren. Every

7:31

single person has to have

7:33

a personal relationship with God

7:35

just because they were Abraham's

7:37

dissidents did not make them

7:40

a true Jew. You

7:42

know, let me turn over and read something that

7:44

the apostle Paul said here in

7:46

Romans chapter two and

7:51

in Romans chapter two,

7:55

it's talking about what a true

7:57

Jew is in verse 20. 28,

8:00

for he is not a Jew which is

8:02

one outwardly, neither is that

8:04

circumcision which is outward in the flesh, but

8:07

he is a Jew which is one inwardly,

8:09

and circumcision is that in the heart, in

8:12

the spirit, and not in the letter whose

8:14

praise is not of men, but of God.

8:17

There's many people that will find this

8:19

offensive just as they did when Jesus

8:21

said, you aren't truly Abraham's children. To

8:24

be a descendant of Abraham was a

8:26

spiritual thing. It was a matter of

8:29

faith, and this is expounded on in

8:31

Romans chapter four, also in other places.

8:34

To be a Christian isn't something that

8:36

you inherit. You don't get christened as

8:38

a child and become a Christian. There's

8:41

many people that say that, and they will say

8:43

that they're a Christian, and that I was raised

8:45

a Christian, but you can't be raised a Christian.

8:48

You could be raised in a Christian home. You

8:50

could be raised in a Christian environment. You

8:53

may go through some of the sacraments, but none of

8:55

those things make you a Christian. Going

8:58

to church doesn't make you a Christian any more than sitting

9:00

in a garage and make you a car. You

9:03

know, if you're a car, you ought

9:05

to go into a garage for your

9:07

own protection. If you're a Christian, you

9:09

ought to go to church, but going

9:11

to church does not make you a

9:13

Christian. Being baptized as an infant doesn't

9:15

make you a Christian. Being baptized as

9:18

an adult doesn't make you a Christian

9:20

unless you have believed with all of

9:22

your heart. Over in, I

9:24

think it was the eighth chapter, of

9:27

the book of Acts, where you see

9:30

Philip going down and preaching to the

9:32

Ethiopian eunuch, and the Ethiopian eunuch received

9:34

it, and he says, what hinders me

9:37

from being baptized? And Philip told him,

9:39

if you believe with all your heart,

9:42

you may be baptized. So Philip right

9:44

there said that the requirement for being

9:46

baptized is you have to believe with

9:49

all your heart. An infant can't believe

9:51

with all of his heart. And if

9:53

you were just going through some religious

9:55

ceremony and you're baptized, whether it's sprinkled

9:58

or dumped, or if you just... told

10:00

them under until they really repent. It

10:02

doesn't matter what you do if you

10:04

didn't believe with all of your heart,

10:07

it does not produce salvation. I

10:10

know the things I'm saying may really be bothering

10:12

some people, but I'm telling you the truth and

10:14

the truth is what will make you free. And

10:17

these people got mad and said, we're Abraham's children.

10:19

And Jesus responded to them and

10:22

said in verse 42, if God were

10:24

your father, you would love me. I

10:27

proceeded forth and came from God, neither came

10:29

I of myself, but he sent

10:32

me. Why do you not understand my

10:34

speech? Even because you cannot

10:36

hear my word, you are of your

10:38

father, the devil. Remember

10:41

in verse 30, he was talking to people

10:43

who believed on him. And

10:47

yet he said, you are of your father, the devil. This

10:50

shows you that just believing on

10:52

Jesus. Now there is a difference if

10:55

it's saving faith, according to James chapter

10:57

two, it will have works that

11:01

go along with it. He'll have corresponding actions.

11:03

You know, it was John Calvin that said

11:05

it this way. He says faith alone saves,

11:08

but saving faith is never

11:10

alone. You know, if

11:13

we were in a room together

11:15

and if you were here where I could see you and

11:18

stuff, and if I said, there's a fire and

11:20

the building's burning, we're all going to die if

11:22

we don't get out of here. If

11:25

you really believed it, there would be

11:27

some type of action. Now

11:29

there could be a variation of action.

11:31

Some people might panic and

11:33

just start screaming or crying. Some people

11:36

might faint. Some people might,

11:38

you know, try and put the fire out. Other

11:40

people might want to get out of the building,

11:42

but for you to just sit there and say,

11:44

I believe there's a fire and we're all going

11:46

to die if we don't do something. You

11:49

can't even conceive that. If a person

11:51

really believed that their life was in

11:53

danger, they would take some type of

11:55

evasive action. They would do something.

11:57

And yet we have a lot of people that'll

11:59

say, Oh yeah, I'm a Christian. And

12:01

yet if they were arrested for being a Christian,

12:04

there wouldn't be enough evidence to convict them. There

12:07

is no evidence of it in their life. They

12:09

don't change. They don't have any

12:11

difference. Now I will admit this, that

12:14

a Christian can still sin. A

12:16

Christian can still make mistakes. Matter of

12:18

fact, I'll even phrase it and say,

12:20

a Christian does still sin. None

12:22

of us live a perfectly

12:25

holy life. If nothing else, we

12:27

may not violate all the commands

12:29

of what we aren't supposed to

12:32

do. But all of the

12:34

commands about what we are supposed to do

12:36

will wind up violating those. You

12:39

know, in Romans chapter 14, verse

12:41

23, it says, whatsoever is

12:43

not of faith is sin. That's

12:46

the last part of that verse. And

12:48

so you could say that sin is not

12:50

only when you violate a direct command, but

12:52

if you ever get to where you aren't

12:54

in faith, if you're in fear, if you're

12:56

worrying and taking care about things, that's sin.

12:59

James 4, 17 says to

13:01

him that knows to do good and does it

13:03

not. To him it is sin. So

13:06

sin isn't only breaking a command. Sin

13:08

is when we're supposed to be loving

13:10

our wife as Christ loved the church

13:12

and the wife is supposed to be

13:14

reverenting her husband as the church reverences

13:16

Christ. And if we

13:18

fail to do that, that's sin. So if

13:20

you use the Bible definition of sin, even

13:23

Christians still sin, but the

13:25

difference is you don't want to sin.

13:27

And if you do sin, your heart

13:30

smites you and convicts you and you

13:32

don't like it. A person that can

13:34

say, oh yeah, I'm a Christian. And

13:36

then they go out and they just

13:38

are deliberately against everything that God says,

13:41

that's a lie. We've got

13:43

people in our government. I could call

13:45

names right now, but there are people

13:47

that claim to be Catholics. And

13:49

yet they will sit there and they are for

13:52

abortion, past even birth.

13:54

They have voted and try and

13:56

promote that there's up to 20.

14:00

something day period of time that if the woman

14:02

just decides that she doesn't want the child they

14:04

can just let it die. That's

14:06

demonic. There are

14:08

people that are claiming to be

14:11

Christians and yet they are sitting

14:13

there and promoting homosexuality and transgenderism

14:15

and mutilation of our children through

14:17

these hormone blockers and sex reassignment

14:20

surgery. That's demonic. And

14:22

there's people that are claiming to be Christians, but

14:25

their actions do not correspond. Now

14:27

again, I believe that somebody could make

14:29

a mistake but for somebody to just

14:32

stand there and adamantly refuse to admit

14:34

that I'm wrong and to say I'm

14:36

sorry and want to repent and saying

14:38

that what God calls you

14:40

know evil, they're calling it good.

14:42

What God calls light, they're calling

14:44

it dark. For a

14:46

person to just be against everything that

14:49

God says, it's a

14:51

lie. It's a deception. There's

14:53

a lot of people that are claiming the

14:55

name of the Lord, but just as Jesus said

14:57

to these people who believed on him, these

15:00

are people that believed on him, believed on him how? Believed

15:03

that he was the Messiah. They believed

15:05

it and yet he

15:08

said you are of your father the devil

15:10

and the lust of your father you will

15:12

do. He was a murderer

15:14

from the beginning and a bode not in

15:16

the truth because there is no

15:19

truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he

15:21

speaketh of his own for he is a liar

15:23

and the father of it. This

15:27

was talking to people who believed on him.

15:30

So there are a lot of people today who

15:33

are saying, oh yeah, I believe on Jesus. Believe

15:35

on him how? Like the devil's or in

15:38

James chapter 2 verse 19, you believe that

15:40

there's one God, you do

15:42

well. The devil's also believe in Trimble. You

15:45

know, that's one of the most sarcastic statements

15:47

in the entire Bible. It's

15:49

basically saying you believe that there's one

15:51

God, you hadn't done anything the devil

15:53

hasn't done. Goes on to say in

15:55

the next verse, but want them to

15:57

know vain man that faith without works.

16:00

is dead. So it's

16:02

as simple as just believe on the

16:04

Lord Jesus Christ and you shall be

16:06

saved. That's why Paul told the Philippian

16:09

jailer when he said, sirs, what must

16:11

I do to be saved? He said,

16:13

believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and

16:15

thou shalt be saved in thy house.

16:17

It's that simple. All

16:20

you got to do is believe

16:22

that Jesus was God manifest in

16:24

the flesh, that he took God's

16:26

wrath and punishment for your sin

16:28

and my sin into his own

16:30

body. And he suffered the punishment

16:33

that you and I deserved. And

16:36

all we have to do to receive

16:39

that is believe. Believe

16:42

that he was the Christ. Believe

16:44

that he paid for our sins and

16:46

believe that we are now accepted in

16:48

the sight of God through what Jesus

16:51

did. It's that simple, but

16:53

it's not that easy. It's not

16:55

just mouthing the words. It's

16:57

not just going through the motions. It's not just

16:59

going and signing a card at a church. It

17:03

has to be a heartfelt commitment. It

17:06

says in Romans chapter 10 verse nine,

17:08

that if thou shalt confess with thy

17:10

mouth the Lord Jesus, that's

17:12

more than just saying that word.

17:14

That's saying that you're turning your

17:16

life over. You are trusting your

17:18

life, your eternal destiny based on

17:20

Jesus. You are making him Lord.

17:23

That doesn't mean that you're saying you'll never mess

17:25

up because you can't do that. All

17:28

of us fail to be the person that we're supposed

17:30

to be. So this isn't saying

17:32

that I'll never make another mistake. I'll

17:34

never do anything wrong, but you are

17:37

making him your Lord. You are willingly

17:39

submitting your life to him and committing

17:41

your life. You're trusting completely upon him.

17:44

So if you will confess with your

17:46

mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in

17:49

your heart that God raised him from

17:51

the dead, you shall be saved. But

17:54

then the next verse says, for with

17:56

the heart man believes unto righteousness and

17:58

with the mouth Confession is

18:00

made unto salvation. That's saying that

18:03

it has to be a heartfelt

18:05

commitment, not just something from your

18:08

head where you intellectually believe that

18:10

Jesus is God. Just

18:13

because you were raised in a Christian

18:15

environment and you've heard these things and

18:17

you believe that Jesus died on the

18:19

cross, you may believe all of the

18:22

elements of salvation, but from your heart,

18:24

have you committed your life to

18:26

God? Have you truly trusted in

18:28

him? You

18:31

know, my personal experience is that when

18:33

I was eight years old, I

18:35

heard a sermon in our Baptist church and

18:38

the pastor preached a sermon that he entitled,

18:41

a tour of hell. And

18:44

what he was doing was talking about that

18:46

in hell, he was going through and showing

18:48

you that not only were the murderers and

18:51

the rapist and terrible people there, but

18:53

he was talking about good people, famous

18:56

people, people that I'd heard of even as an

18:58

eight year old, that they would be in hell.

19:01

And he was naming names. And

19:03

this shook me to my core because basically

19:05

I had this concept that if you're good,

19:08

like if you had a, you know, one

19:10

of those scales where you have a fulcrum

19:12

in the middle and you have these things

19:14

on the side, if you're good over here,

19:16

outweighs your bad, then basically you

19:18

could make it into heaven. And I just thought

19:20

that, you know, I was a relatively good person

19:22

and that surely God would accept me. And

19:25

for this pastor to be saying that

19:27

there were good people, people that were

19:29

respected, that were in hell, that

19:32

shocked me and it messed up

19:34

my paradigm. And I remember after

19:36

church, I went home and

19:38

I asked my dad, I said, what was

19:40

he talking about? That these good people, people

19:42

that were on magazine covers and famous and

19:44

stuff like this, we're gonna be in hell.

19:47

And praise God that my dad explained

19:49

to me that it's not good

19:51

people that go to heaven and bad

19:53

people that go to hell, but

19:56

only forgiven people. It

19:58

didn't matter whether they were good or bad. relative

20:00

to other people, all of us of sin

20:02

and come short of the glory of God,

20:04

Romans And

20:06

it's only people who receive salvation through

20:08

Jesus that go to heaven, and it's

20:10

only people that reject salvation through Jesus

20:13

that go to hell. And there's going

20:15

to be good people going to hell

20:17

because they didn't understand that they had

20:20

to have a savior. They thought they

20:22

were good enough that God would save

20:24

them on the basis of what they've

20:27

done. And hell's going

20:29

to be full of good people,

20:31

relatively good compared to other people.

20:34

But the Scripture says that they

20:36

comparing themselves among themselves and measuring

20:38

themselves by themselves are not

20:41

wise. You know, I've

20:43

heard people all my life say, well, if those old hypocrites down

20:45

there at church make it, then I'm going to make it. Well,

20:48

hell, the problem with that is that the hypocrites at church

20:50

aren't going to make it. You

20:52

aren't comparing yourself with other people. And

20:55

anytime you get to doing that, see,

20:57

it's this old Pharisee syndrome where Jesus

20:59

talked about the Pharisee and a

21:01

publican was a thief, a traitor

21:04

who turned on the Jews and was

21:06

used by the Romans to collect

21:08

taxes. And he was allowed to collect more

21:10

than what was due and anything extra that

21:13

he took, he could steal from the people.

21:15

So he was hated by

21:17

the Jews. And so this Pharisee and

21:19

the publican, a person hated by the

21:21

Jews, both went into the temple. And

21:23

the Pharisee said, God, I thank you

21:26

that I'm not like other men. I

21:28

fast twice in the week. I pay

21:30

tithes of mint and anise and cumin,

21:32

talking about even the spices in

21:35

his garden. He took the seeds

21:37

and separated them and gave one

21:39

tenth of all of the seeds

21:41

to the Lord. I mean, he

21:44

was legalistic and holy to the

21:46

nth degree. But

21:48

the problem was, he says, I thank you. I'm

21:50

not like other men. I fast twice in the

21:52

week. I pay tithes of mint and anise and

21:54

cumin. And I do all these things. I

21:56

thank you. I'm not like this publican over

21:59

there. See, he was compared. to

22:01

another person, a person who was a traitor

22:03

and a thief. But then Jesus

22:05

said that the publican, he wouldn't

22:07

even lift up his eyes to heaven. He just smote his breast and he said,

22:11

oh God, be merciful to me a sinner.

22:14

Because the publican put

22:16

trust in God's mercy

22:18

and asked for mercy

22:20

through Jesus, then

22:22

he was the one that was accepted. But

22:24

the one who was living a relative

22:26

holy life was the one that rejected.

22:29

Jesus said that the publican went down

22:31

to his house, justified, whereas

22:33

the Pharisee was rejected by

22:35

God. There's going to be a

22:37

lot of religious people that are rejected

22:39

by God because their trust was in themselves

22:42

and in their own goodness instead of in

22:44

a Savior. So it doesn't matter if you

22:46

reject the Savior because you don't believe that

22:48

he was God, you don't believe that he

22:50

existed, or if you just don't accept him

22:52

because you don't need him, you

22:54

are good enough and you think you're going to get in

22:57

on your own goodness. You'll split hell

22:59

wide open. You need to repent

23:01

and put faith in a Savior. We've

23:03

got people on our phones right now that would love to

23:05
