#NoDespair2020
Alright, alright, alright. It's an all woke preacher clips day today. One more quick one. I thought this was interesting. This is a David Platt sermon and I was listening to it and there's a section in it that reminds me of something.
I want to start off with one of my favorite scam jokes. That's me. That's not a scam channel. CoffeeZilla. If you follow CoffeeZilla on YouTube, he's hilarious. I think this guy's really funny and he just goes over different scams, different scammers.
He does interviews. He does little videos like this. This is a good one where he's talking about this guy Adrian G and he does something that I think David Platt does it as well. I just want you to hear this.
This is good stuff. View of how jobs work.
And I want to reiterate again, I'm sure you've seen other make money programs out there claiming to help you make $100 million or make 50k in just 7 days. This guy is such a, I can't.
Say that on a Christian show, but this guy man, this guy Adrian G, look at him. Anyway, so he just said, he said, you've seen it before. You've seen the YouTubers that promise you're.
Going to make 50k in just 7 days. But this is the difference. I'm not here to give you false BS expectations. And so you dreams, no, I can't help you make 50k in only 7 days. And no, I don't guarantee you'll be able to make $100 million.
But what I can promise is you will be able to make six figures a year working just one day a week, which is more than what most humans could ever ask. If you're looking to be the next Bill Gates.
Or Jeff Bezos, you can't do it. Shut up. Shut your mouth. Hey, you can't, you can't.
Do that. 100 K just one day a week. Illegal. It should, it should be illegal. All right.
That that's illegal to do what you just did. Hey, I'm not, I'm not here to promise you get rich quick schemes, right? But I went, what I can promise you is that you can work one day a week and make six figures.
This isn't some kind of crazy get rich quick game.
Am I right guys? Oh man. Maybe you don't find that funny. Like I do. Maybe I'm just a maniac, but I'll tell you what, I love that kind of thing. Cause scammers do that all the time. One of the things that scammers a lot of times will do is it in their videos, they'll like rip other scammers and they'll be like, yeah, that guy's a scam.
You know, you can't make, you can't make a hundred million dollars in the Forex market being a complete amateur, but, but let me show you a foolproof system where you can make $50 million in the Forex market being a total amateur.
It's just so funny. So like they telegraph what they're doing in the video as they're blasting what they're doing. Now, this is not some great rich quick scheme, but I can promise you, you will get rich quick.
So anyway, so there's a point to this. There's a point to this because I think that the woke, that's me again. I keep getting the wrong click. Okay. There we go. Um, I think the woke church movement does this a lot where they, where they, they telegraph what they are themselves doing by ripping that thing.
So like that, like David Platt does it here. I want you to hear this because David Platt, he's, he gets all emotional. You know how he is. He's like almost crying when he's preaching. I want you to hear this.
He does the same thing.
I want to sacrifice more of my preferences as a white pastor. I need to grow in my laying aside of preferences for members of this body because I want Christ to be exalted through increasing diversity in our leadership and our membership.
On a related note. I do not want to speak from the Bible on issues that are popular among white followers of Christ while staying silent in the Bible on issues that are important to non white followers of Christ.
All right. Here, here it comes. Here it comes. So he's saying, you know, this is all good stuff. Yeah. Kingdom diversity, this and that, blah, blah, blah. You know, I could quibble with what he means by some of this, but it's not that bad.
But here's where he does it, man. This is too funny. I really do think that he's like, that's scary. He's like this guy, not that guy. He's this guy right here. I'm not here to sell you a get rich quick scheme.
Listen to this. Again,.
I did it again. All right, here we go. It's not faithful pastor. Here it is. It's coming up. I actually read this week how studies have shown that white church leaders are less likely to speak and act prophetically on race issues because white church leaders have more to lose when they do.
Basically, if you want to draw a crowd in general, stay away from racial issues.
He's like, if you want to draw a crowd and he's crying, you want to draw a crowd. You got to stop.
Talking about racial issues. If you want to draw a crowd of white people or black people or this type of person, that type of person, then stay away from saying any one of those types of people is part of the problem on racial issues.
Because the reality is many people mainly want to be comforted when they come to church as people were naturally drawn to that, which brings the most benefit, most benefit with the least cost. So if you give people a choice between the church of comfort and the church of comfort, but you need to make sacrifices to change your life.
People will choose the church of comfort most every time, which is why we've designed so much of the church culture, the way we have today. And it's why we're so prone not to talk about issues that are uncomfortable to us.
And I just want to see that the Bible doesn't give us that option. Like Amos five doesn't give us that option. He's basically telling you that like,.
Like it's not popular to talk about race. Like you're not going to, you're not going to, you're not going to comfort people. If you talk about race, does he realize what's happening everywhere in the culture?
Like this is everywhere. Like I was watching the NFL the other day. I don't really watch it that much, but you know, they've got social justice messaging in all of their commercials, all of their, their, their, their, their uniforms.
It's everywhere. It's in every movie. It's on every news station. It's on everything. And he's here trying to sell you a, a tale that this is the hardest thing. You, you won't, you won't get a crowd. You won't please people.
If you talk about racial issues, like, are you serious? It's not a scam. I promise you this is not a get rich quick scheme, but you will make a hundred.
Thousand dollars one day a week. I truly worship God while we stay silent on injustice in all kinds of areas. And I know as a white pastor, I have blind spots. So I am part of the problem. I need friends and fellow pastors around me from different ethnicities who helped me see those blind spots.
And I'm, I'm committed to listening and learning and loving, laying aside, whatever contemporary church growth methodology says is the best way to grow the church. I ignore the issues. I want us.
To do the exact opposite. I know that, that we're being, we're being pressured to ignore the issues, the world is pressuring us to ignore this issue, but I'm a gospel. The gospel promises that we must not.
Why does he preach this way? Why is he always crying like fake crying? I don't get it. I can't agree on one thing though. Definitely. David Platt, you are part of the problem. Can you believe this? It's like, you won't grow your church talking about this.
Literally, everyone is talking about this. Yeah, that's what I'm, that's what I'm saying. You trust God with the growth. You don't try to engineer diversity. You don't like try to try to, well, we got to have the proportional representation and got to hire the white six over the, or the black six over the white seven.
You don't have to try to engineer it. The Holy spirit can work, right? I'm not, this is not the church. He's dead. He's just like that scammer. Anyway, I'm going to go. Hope you had a good day today and I hope you found this video helpful.
God bless.
