from “Start With What's IN The Bible

something in the Bible? Do not lie to each other. Oh, I'm just getting started with this list. They want something out the Bible. Give them Philippians 2.14. Do everything without grumbling or arguing. I want something out the Bible. I don't want to do something in the Bible, because I want God to open the grave. God is like, before we start dealing with graves, can we deal with grumbling? Your grumbling is the grave for every good thing I'm trying to do in your life. You bury it in your complaining. If he wants you to do something out of the Bible, I want you to do something in the Bible. Next verse. Let's keep it going. James wanted you to know this is in the Bible. He didn't know this was going in the Bible when he wrote it. He was just writing out of faithfulness, and now it's in the Bible. James 1, chapter 4, verse 11 says, brothers and sisters, do not slander one another. That's in the Bible. I can't figure out why y'all aren't shouting over that, because when I was saying stuff out the Bible, it made us feel excited. But when I'm saying something in the Bible, we get quiet. Maybe God is not quiet. Maybe I'm just not doing what's in the Bible. You said you were glad I was back. Next verse. Touch somebody and say, It's in the Bible. Flee from sexual immorality. Put that on the YouthX2027 t-shirt. Flee sexual immorality. That's in the Bible. I love you enough to tell you you're not going to be able to hear God if you're so tangled. If you're so tangled up in intimacy that isn't really intimacy that's just corrupting your ability to think, you're not going to really be able to hear the great and precious promises of God. If your mind is consumed with porn, you have to run from some stuff in order to receive some stuff. It's not just true for the youth. It's in the Bible. Touch somebody and say, It's in the Bible. It's in the Bible. It's in the Bible. It's in the Bible. It's in the Bible. It's in the Bible. It's in the Bible. I think I got one more I don't remember. Oh yeah. Put this for the kids. Honor your father and mother. Come on, parents. You ought to tithe this week with this sermon. It's in the Bible. You can change. You can be transformed through the renewing of your mind. Give me verse 4 again, 1 Samuel 16. Samuel did what the Lord said. Oh, it's wonderful to hear. It's wonderful to be in tune. It's wonderful to be educated. It's wonderful to have information. It's wonderful to quote Scripture, but I would rather you walk in one than quote 100.
