F4F | Sergio de la Mora: Break Your Piñata

Welcome to another installment of fighting for the faith.

My name is Chris Roseboro.

I am your servant in Jesus Christ.

This is the channel that compares what people are saying in the name of God to the Word of God.

Now if you've ever heard somebody say that the Holy Spirit is God the Father in

Spirit and that Jesus is God the Father in Son.

Go ahead and hit the subscribe button down below.

Don't forget to like the video and ring the bell.

You've been taught modalism.

Yeah, I.

Man, I would note that much of evangelicalism and large swaths of the

charismatic movement are functionally Modalistic and if you don't know what that is,

I'll explain it as we go.

But the basic gist behind modalism is that you believe in one God.

So it's a Unitarian approach to God, but God manifests himself in different

ways.

It's kind of like wearing hats.

So, you know someday God puts on the the father hat and someday he puts on the son hat

other days He puts on the spirit hat and that's not how that works at all as as they

would say over there Lutheran satire.

That's modalism Patrick.

Yeah, that's that's modalism that's not not at all how God has revealed himself the

biblical doctrine of the Trinity is that there are one God three

persons and That and the idea then is is that the Father is God the

Son is God the Holy Spirit is God not yet.

There's not three gods.

There's only one and yet the Father is not the Son and the Holy Spirit is not the

Son and the Holy Spirit is not The Father and the Father is not that you get the idea.

We'll explain it.

We'll do a little biblical Explaining if you would and I'm gonna give you a resource that you can

use to help kind of understand How God has revealed his nature in

Scripture and we are to believe it we don't have to understand it because the doctrine of the Trinity

is not a doctrine that that makes sense to our our Puny mortal

minds if you would but it's not contrary to logic instead.

The idea here is that God has revealed this so we believe what God has revealed about himself.

We confess that to be true and it's not necessary that we understand how the nature of God works.

Just that this is is the way in which his nature is revealed to us.

So the idea you pay attention to how God has revealed himself in his Word otherwise you end up making a God that it

conforms to your Reason and a God that conforms to your reason is an idol and

it can't save you.

So yeah, all that being said we're heading over to Cornerstone Church in San

Diego, California.

Pastor Sergio de la Mora is preaching a sermon titled break

your pinata and And this was delivered on Cinco de Mayo of

2019 and This thing goes wrong in so many

ways That I had to pick one.

I Almost feel like I could take another crack at this and at this exact same sermon

I can I take two or three other cracks at it and And we just wouldn't run out of

ways in which he'd completely deviates from God's Word.

This is like a case study an absurdity and false doctrine and This is like a case study and what

not to do when you're preaching.

So let's get to it.

Here's Sergio de la Mora and Break your pinata.

Take out your Bibles with me and go to Mark chapter 14.

I want to read this verse of Scripture with you Mark chapter 14.

I want to preach a message called break your pinata.

I haven't done one.

I haven't done that since I was six.

Yeah, my parents actually I Grew up in Southern, California.

So, you know, I I got to break a pinata for one of my birthdays six.

I was six.

Yeah, it doesn't make any sense.

But hey, you know, I did it.

I've broken a pinata before actually I took a couple couple of whacks at it and I really didn't

bring it down.

It was other people from the party who were More capable it like really opening that thing

up, but that's a different story.

Altogether so presently I am NOT and I do not own a pinata

so How many of you have never broken a pinata in your life?

Let me see your hand.

You have never in your life broken a pinata.

Pinatas do not appear in Scripture just saying are you serious?

Okay.

How many of you have broken a pinata?

How many of you broke something that you thought was a pinata.

I'm gonna talk to you about the spiritual significance of a pinata today.

There is no spiritual significance of a pinata.

Amen.

Read the Bible with me.

Mark chapter 14 will start in verse 3.

Meanwhile, Jesus was in Bethany at the home of Simon a man who had previously had

leprosy.

While he was eating a woman came in with the beautiful Alabaster jar well with the

beautiful pinata.

Let's just say No

an Alabaster jar is Not a pinata.

Of expensive perfume made of the essence of Nard.

She broke open the jar.

She broke the pinata.

No.

No.

No.

It doesn't work.

This is not a good Illustration and poured the perfume over

Jesus's head.

Yeah.

Some of those at the table were indignant why waste such expensive perfume they asked.

Couldn't have been sold for years of wages and the money given to the poor so they scolded her harshly.

But Jesus replied leave her alone.

Tell the person next to you.

Leave me alone.

Why would I tell the person next to me?

Leave me alone?

They're not touching me.

You know, I'm not in this text.

So you'll note he's doing something really weird and like I said this thing goes wrong in so

many different ways.

In fact, I you know, if I were to just look for the ways in which it goes, right?

We could probably do a just a brief little video maybe a minute or two long, you know.

We're going off the rails all over the place here.

It's like trying to herd cats.

Yeah.

Come on.

Tell him again.

Tell him again.

Just say give me some room.

Don't give me some room.

I'm about to break my pinata right now.

Give us a room here man.

Leave me alone.

I'm gonna break my pinata.

Don't you need to be blindfolded.

And the Bible says why criticize her for doing such a good thing.

You always have the poor among you and you can help them whenever you want, but you will not always have me.

She has done what she could and has anointed my body for burial ahead of

time.

I tell you the truth wherever the good news is preached throughout the world.

This woman's deed will be remembered and discussed as we are doing on Cinco de Mayo

2019 at Cornerstone Church of San Diego one more time.

Give him praise.

Come on cornerstone.

You may be seated today.

In your notes, I Placed an excerpt of the book.

I've been reading.

This book is called the release of the Holy Spirit.

All right.

So this is no no number two.

You're supposed to exegete the text and He no joke in the sermon

quotes extensively from this book.

He's been reading as if it's the Bible.

Yeah, that's a no -no.

Yeah, that's a no -no.

Yeah, I mean if you want to quote a scholar to help you rightly understand a text, that's one thing.

The release of the Holy Spirit book this is not a an exegesis

on the text he just read and Sergio here keeps calling that alabaster jar

a pinata.

It's not a pinata, man.

Um, I think it's important that we all grow in the presence of the Holy Spirit.

The Holy Spirit is God the Father in spirit.

You see and this is the reason I picked this particular problem here because this is the most egregious you get this

wrong.

You're believing in a false God.

So let me back that up and let's listen carefully to what he just said because This

is not the biblical doctrine of the Trinity.

This is modalism.

The Holy Spirit is God the Father in spirit.

No, he's not.

The Holy Spirit is God the Holy Spirit.

Jesus was God the Father and Son.

No, God the Son is God the Son not God the Father now.

Yeah, let's We're gonna zero in on this issue right here cuz that right there that that's

modalism.

Patrick that's that's a heresy and if believing in the modalistic God

is not the God of Scripture that's not what God has revealed his nature to be.

Believing in the God of modalism puts you outside of Christianity.

So it's important that you get this, right?

All right.

So let's do this.

We're gonna start with shall we a Graphic that is helpful.

All right now understand this is just useful in Explaining how the Trinity

works and.

And this is this you just don't push too hard on these things, but you get the idea.

So, let me zoom in on this.

So here's the idea this Upside -down Trianglish kind of thing here

in the center.

It says God there is only one God and we'll talk about this from Scripture in a minute.

There is God the Father God the Son God the Holy Spirit.

So the Father is God the Son is God.

The Holy Spirit is God.

That's the reason you see, you know, those bars going right to the middle.

So it says spirit is God father is God son is God.

This is most certainly true.

The Father is God.

The Son is God.

The Holy Spirit is God, but here's the thing the Father is Not the Son.

You know, it's so for instance when Jesus is being baptized in the Jordan River by John the Baptist

he goes into the water and John the Baptist Baptizes him and what happens?

God the Holy Spirit descends on Christ in the form of a dove.

Mm -hmm, and the voice of the Father is born from heaven and says this is my beloved Son

in whom I am.

Well -pleased so here all three persons of the Trinity appear at the same

time and They're in their persons.

You can you can talk about them in ways that you make them distinct from each other.

So the Spirit is God the Son is God the Father is God the Son is God.

But the Spirit is not the Son.

The Father is not the Son.

The Father is not the Spirit.

The the Son is not you get the idea.

Okay, so this will help you kind of keep all that right.

So when Sergio de la Mora said that the Spirit is God the Father in spirit.

No, that's modalism.

And when he said that Jesus is God is God the Father and Son.

Again, no, that's modalism now I know this seems confusing and it's

a little hard to track with so what we're gonna do is we're gonna put a link to This resource and the

name of the resource is the biblical basis of the doctrine of the Trinity.

This was put together years ago by Robert Bowman.

Robert Bowman This is a fellow who was a researcher who used to work with Walter Martin

years ago he would write books on the doctrine of the Trinity against the Aryan heresy

in the form of the Jehovah's Witnesses cult and.

And so he put together this Extensive resource called the biblical basis of

the doctrine of the Trinity.

We're not going to go through it in its entirety.

But we'll put a link to this and so the biblical basis of the doctrine of the Trinity begins with

this idea that scripture is explicitly clear that

there is only Only One God there is only one there are not three.

There is only one and let's take a look at those texts for instance

Isaiah chapter 43 verse 10.

Here's what it says.

You are my witnesses declares Yahweh my servant whom I have chosen.

So that you may know and believe me and understand that I am he before me.

No, God was formed.

Nor shall there be any After me.

All right, if you're looking for a text that says there's only one God.

That's the one and you'll note no gods are created.

No gods are formed before him none after him.

He is the only God that is and ever will be.

I mean, that's as clear as it gets.

Isaiah 44 verses 6 through 6 through 8 says that says

Yahweh the king of Israel and his Redeemer Yahweh Sabaoth the Lord of hosts Lord of

armies.

I am the first and I am the last besides me.

There is No God and you'll note that this is sounds a lot like what Jesus says

in the book of Revelation.

I am the first and the last.

I'm the Alpha and the Omega at the beginning in the end.

Right exactly who is like me.

Isaiah says let him proclaim it.

Let him declare and set it before me since I appointed ancient people.

Let them declare what is to come and what will and and what will happen.

Fear not nor be afraid.

Have I not told you it from of old and declared it and you are my witnesses.

Is there a God besides me?

There is no rock.

I know not any No gods before him none after him.

He is the only rock that is.

Isaiah 45 verse 5 I am Yahweh.

There is no other besides me.

There is No, God, I equip you though.

You do not know me.

Isaiah 45 verse 14 it it says thus says Yahweh the wealth of

Egypt and the merchandise of cush and the Sabians men of Stature shall come over to you

and be yours.

They shall follow you.

They shall come over in chains and bow down to you.

They will plead with you saying surely God is in you and there is no other no God

beside him.

Isaiah 45 21 so declare and present your case.

Let them take counsel together who told this long ago who declared it of of old.

Was it not I Yahweh and there is no other God beside me a righteous God and a Savior.

There is none Besides me turn to me and be saved all the ends of the earth for I am

God and there is no other.

So you get the point and so all of these passages then are in

section 1.

There is only one God.

So this is most certainly true.

This scripture Explicitly teaches there is only one God before God there was no God formed.

There will no be no gods after him.

There are no other deities except for the one.

Right now all of that being said then God the father himself is

called God for instance I Ephesians chapter 1 verse 3 and you'll note I'm

in that section of the document put together by Robert Bowman.

Ephesians 1 verse 3 in the King James says blessed be the God and father of our Lord Jesus

Christ who has blessed us with all spiritual blessings in Heavenly places and so he goes on to

explain all of the different places from the scriptures where God the father is

called God and Here's the thing in my years of doing countercult work I have yet

to run across a single person who denies that the father is God.

Yeah, that just does that it's like that theological animal doesn't exist at least I've never run across it.

But if you know somebody who says I don't believe the father is God.

Well, here's the here's the clear passages that say the father is God

now where all the action is at by the way, then is regarding Jesus Christ.

And that is over and again people deny that Jesus is God or you know in the

case of modalists, they'd say well the God the Son is just a hat that that that that the

one true God puts on from time to time which actually Modalism doesn't make any sense because now my question would

be like, all right.

So when Jesus was being baptized who was doing the speaking from heaven was Jesus throwing

his voice?

Was he engaging in ventriloquism?

Yeah, it doesn't make any sense.

But by the way TD Jake's believes in modalism.

He's a modalist.

He's he denies the doctrine of the Trinity and I don't care what they did at elephant room, too.

He flat -out still would not confess the doctrine of the Trinity and you know for

all of his claims that his doctrine is shifted.

He still teaches Modalism.

Yeah, that's what he teaches and believes and confesses.

All right so we're gonna take a look at passages that explicitly say that Jesus is God and We'll

note then that this is, you know gonna create an interesting conundrum for us.

But we'll note that this is what the scriptures say.

So in John chapter 1 verse 1 it says an archaic and halaga sky a lagas and pro stone.

They own kite tails and halagas.

Which is Greek to but translated says in the beginning was the word and watch what it says.

The word was with God and the word Was God

saying how many gods are there?

There's only one.

But you'll note that the lagas is with God and the lagas is God.

This is kind of how the mystery of the Trinity works.

So you'll note then that God the Father is called God and Jesus Christ the Son of God.

He is also called God yet.

There is only one God and Jesus prays to the father and he

is sent by the father.

Which means Jesus isn't the father.

Right, right.

Now, how does that work?

I don't know.

I have no clue how it works.

I just know that that's what God has revealed about his nature in Scripture now John chapter

20 verses 24 through

29 very important text.

So if you remember when Jesus rose from the grave He appeared to his disciples in the upper room.

But Thomas missed the first meeting and so on the following Sunday Jesus appears

again amongst them and.

And Thomas when he missed the the first meeting the first appearances of Christ said he's not gonna believe unless he puts his

hands in in the in the in the Jesus aside and touches the nail marks in his hands.

And so Jesus now on the the second Sunday after the after the resurrection

Appears in the upper room and here's what it says.

I'll start in verse 24 for our context Thomas one of the twelve called the twin was not with them when Jesus came.

So the other disciples told them we've seen the Lord and he said to them unless I see his hands in the marks of

the Nails and place my finger in the marks of the nails and place my hand into his side.

I will never believe.

So eight days later His disciples were inside again and Thomas was with them.

Although the doors were locked Jesus came and stood among them and said peace be with you.

Then he said to Thomas put your finger here and see my hands put out your hand place it in my side.

Do not disbelieve but believe.

Thomas answered him and the Greek here is wonderful.

Ha curio smooth.

Kya Thales me my Lord and my God

you are the Lord of me.

You are the God of me and Jesus Doesn't rebuke Thomas for this.

Because here Thomas confesses that Jesus is his Lord and his God and that's exactly who

Jesus is.

Remember what it says in Colossians 2 that in him the whole fullness of the deity

dwells bodily.

So Jesus said you have believed because you've seen me.

I'm blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed.

All right.

So you'll note that Jesus praises him for believing and he says to those who believe the same Confession

that Jesus is Lord and God that they are blessed even though they have not seen Jesus.

That would be you and I now Acts chapter 20 verse 20 the Apostle Paul

in his great Farewell address to the pastors in the congregations in the Church of Ephesus.

And Ted, you know, he he says something quite fascinating regarding the blood of God.

Here's what he says.

So he says how you know that how I did not shrink from the declaring to you anything that was profitable and

Teaching you in public and from house to house testifying both to Jews and to Greeks of repentance towards God and in faith

in our Lord Jesus Christ.

And now behold I'm going to Jerusalem constrained by the Spirit not knowing what will happen to me there except for that The

Holy Spirit testifies to me in every city that imprisonment and afflictions await me but I do not account my

life of any value or as precious to myself if only I may finish my course and the ministry that I received

from the Lord Jesus to testify to the gospel of the grace of God.

And now behold I know that none Of you among whom I have gone about Proclaiming the kingdom will see my face again.

Therefore I testify to you this day that I am innocent of the blood of all for I did not shrink from

declaring to you the whole counsel of God.

And then he says this to the pastors of the churches in Ephesus pay careful attention to yourselves and

To all the flock in which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers to care for the Church

of God.

Which he obtained with his own blood.

And of course you have to ask the question.

When did God bleed on?

The cross.

So this is another reference that clearly teaches that Jesus Christ is

God.

You see we were purchased bled for died for we were purchased by

the very blood of God and God normally doesn't have blood

but because of the incarnation Jesus Christ God the Son in human flesh

God now has blood you get the idea.

That's kind of the point of the text now Titus chapter 2 verses 11 through 13

says this for the grace of God has appeared bringing salvation for all people and Training us

to renounce ungodliness and worldly passions and to live self -controlled upright and godly lives in

the present age.

Waiting for the blessed hope and the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior

Jesus Christ and so, you know here the Apostle Paul says of Jesus that he is our great God and Savior.

So again working through the texts and your basic concept is that scripture is explicitly clear.

There is only one God the Father is clearly called God.

The Son is called God.

How many gods are there?

One and also by the way, the Holy Spirit is also called God and here's one passage

that will bear that out.

But again, Robert Bowman's resource again will be available in the description of today's

episode of fighting for the faith.

So be sure to grab the link and then you know.

Work through all the biblical text that Robert Bowman has laid out and you'll see that it you know.

This is clearly what the Bible teaches as far as what God has revealed regarding his nature so third

person of the Trinity then is the Holy Spirit and this is the account of Ananias and

Sapphira it says in Acts chapter 5 verse 1 a man named Ananias and his wife Sapphira.

They sold a piece of property and with his wife's knowledge.

He kept back for himself some of the proceeds.

Brought only a only a part of it and laid it at the Apostles feet which by the way is not a problem.

The problem was is that he was putting on the pretense that he was bringing the entire sum.

For which he sold the property and in by doing so he's lying.

So Peter said to Ananias why is Satan so filled your heart to lie to the Holy Spirit.

So who did Ananias lie to and Ananias lied to none other than the Holy Spirit himself?

Okay, so and to keep back for yourself part of the proceeds of the land while it remained unsold.

Did it not remain your own and after it was sold was it not at your disposal?

Why is it that you have contrived this deed in your heart that you you have not?

Lied to man.

But you have lied to God.

So you'll note then that Acts chapter 5 Says that Ananias lied to the Holy

Spirit and by doing so he lied to God so Father is

God.

It's called God the Son.

Jesus Christ is explicitly said to be God the Holy Spirit is said to be

God and Yet there are not three gods there is only one

God and so I'll come back then to our the you know, the the.

The idea here, you know from the graphic that the Father is God the Son is God.

The Holy Spirit is God.

We showed you the biblical text that bear that out.

They are then yet.

There's only one God.

Scripture is clear and The Father is not the Spirit.

No, the the Holy Spirit proceeds from the Father.

The Son is not the Father.

No, and the Son is not the Spirit.

And so how do you sit there?

Well, I don't understand.

I understand it.

Yeah, I don't understand how it works either.

But this is what God has revealed about himself.

So Sergio de la Mora it just I mean got it way way

badly wrong.

When he said what he said and Let me let me let me back this up just a smidge and I want

you to hear it again because you can see.

That this is this is so bad.

I mean He clearly doesn't know what he's talking about.

So 15 seconds here.

We lease of the Holy Spirit.

I think it's important that we all grow in the presence of the Holy Spirit.

The Holy Spirit is God the Father in spirit.

No, the Holy Spirit is the Holy Spirit.

He's God the Holy Spirit third person of the Trinity.

Jesus was God the Father and Son.

No, he's not.

Jesus is God the Son.

Second person of the Holy Trinity in human flesh, by the way, too.

Yeah, let me give you a resource that if you can get your hands on it would be helpful for you also

back in the day when when the Christological heresies were Ravaging the church you think of the

modalists you think of the Aryan heresy?

Then you know story and ism and other heresies that just rocked the church

in the fourth or fifth century they the the Christian Church

put together a creed.

Called the Athanasian Creed it was named after Athanasius of Alexandria the great defender

of the doctrine of the Trinity and as ponderous as a confession as it

is it correctly lays out what the scriptures say and.

So it uses a word that we're all really uncomfortable with and the word is Catholic.

But the Catholic Catholic means universal and notice it's a small C not a capital C.

It's not talking about Roman Catholicism.

It's talking about the universal faith that is to be believed and confessed Throughout all time and in

all nations until Christ returns.

So here's what it says.

Whoever desires to be saved must above all hold to the Catholic faith.

Whoever does not keep it whole and undefiled will undoubtedly perish

eternally.

And so the Catholic faith is this we worship one God in Trinity and Trinity in unity.

Neither confusing the persons which is what Sergio de la Mora did he confuse the persons

nor dividing the substance for the Father is one person the Son is another the Holy Spirit is another.

But The Godhead of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit is one the

glory equal the majesty co -eternal.

Such as the Father is such is the Son and such is the Holy Spirit.

The Father is uncreated the Son uncreated the Holy Spirit

Uncreated.

Now, let me do this because I can tell that I made it just a little bit too small there.

There we go.

And we'll come over here.

So the Father infinite the Son Infinite the Holy Spirit infinite the Father

eternal the Son eternal the Holy Spirit eternal and yet there are not three eternals.

There's only one eternal.

Just as there are not three uncreated or three infinites.

But one uncreated and one infinite in the same way then the Father is almighty.

The Son is almighty.

The Holy Spirit is almighty and yet there are not three Almighty's but one almighty.

This is what scripture teaches.

So the Father is God the Son is God and the Holy Spirit is God and yet there are not three gods.

But one God and so the Father is Lord.

The Son is Lord.

The Holy Spirit is Lord and yet there are not three Lords.

But one Lord just as we are compelled by the Christian truth to acknowledge each distinct person

as God and Lord.

So also are we prohibited by the Catholic religion to say that there are three gods or Lords?

The Father is not made nor created nor begotten by anyone.

The Son is neither made nor created but begotten of the Father alone.

The Holy Spirit is of the Father and of the Son neither made nor created nor begotten, but

Proceeding thus there is one Father not three fathers one son not three sons one

Holy Spirit not three Holy Spirits.

And In this Trinity none is before or after another none is greater or

less than another.

But the whole three persons are co eternal with each other and Co

-equal so that in all things as has been stated above the Trinity in unity and the unity in Trinity

is to be Worshipped.

Therefore, whoever desires to be saved must think thus about the Trinity and then it goes on to talk about

the incarnation.

Which is use it which is also useful.

It's also necessary for everlasting salvation that one faithfully believe the incarnation of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Therefore it is the right faith that we believe and confess that our Lord Jesus Christ The Son of God is at

the same time both God and man.

He is God begotten from the substance of the Father before all ages.

He is man born of the substance of his mother in this age perfect God perfect man composed of a rational

soul and human flesh.

Equal to the father with respect to his divinity less than the father with respect to his humanity.

Although he is God and man.

He is not two But one Christ.

One however not by the conversion of the divinity into flesh.

But by the assumption of the humanity into God one altogether not by confusion of substance But by

unity of person for as the rational soul and flesh is one Is one man.

So God and man is one Christ who suffered for our salvation.

Descended into hell rose again the third day from the dead ascended into heaven is seated

at the right hand of the Father God Almighty from whence he will come to judge the living and the dead at his

coming all people will rise again With their bodies and give an account considering their own deeds.

Those who've done good will enter into eternal life those who've done evil into Eternal fire.

This is the Catholic or the universal faith.

Whoever does not believe it faithfully and firmly Cannot be saved.

So there you go at the nation creed and I See if I can find a

copy that we'll put in the description of this Installment of fighting for the faith so that you can look at the reason why that

document that Creed is so helpful is Because it very carefully says the exact same thing

as Scripture one God three persons not three gods, but one and in

that's What the Bible reveals and so again the resources for you for this

installment of fighting for the faith will be Robert Bowman's the biblical basis of the doctrine of the Trinity

which I've barely scratched the surface of but you got the shape of how the Bible reveals the

nature of God and the nature of the Trinity and And this is a useful useful

resource for those who want to go deeper in it.

And then we'll throw a link up to a PDF version of the Athanasian Creed also in the description

So that you can download that as well.

Hopefully you found this helpful.

And like I said Sergio de la Mora's sermon goes so far off the rails in so many different ways.

We decided to just pick on the one Where it clearly shows he does not understand the doctrine of the Trinity at all and

what he was what he was literally saying Was none other than modalism and modalism is

a heresy that cannot save.

It's a heresy that has you believing in a false God a God that is reasonable.

But not the God who is so now if you found this helpful all the information on how you can share this video is
