33 Then Pilate entered the Praetorium again, called Jesus,
and said to Him, “Are You the King of the Jews?”34 Jesus answered him, “Are you speaking for yourself about this,
or did others tell you this concerning Me?”
35 Pilate answered, “Am I a Jew? Your own nation and the chief priests
have delivered You to me. What have You done?”
36 Jesus answered, “My kingdom is not of this world.
If My kingdom were of this world, My servants would fight,
so that I should not be delivered to the Jews;
but now My kingdom is not from here.”
37 Pilate therefore said to Him, “Are You a king then?”
Jesus answered, “You say rightly that I am a king.
For this cause I was born, and for this cause I have come into the world,
that I should bear witness to the truth. Everyone who is of the truth hears My voice.”
38 Pilate said to Him, “What is truth?” And when he had said this,
he went out again to the Jews, and said to them, “I find no fault in Him at all.

00:01 Praise Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Brothers and sisters, today the power of Christ Daily 13 February 2016 A Saturday Politics and Jesus Christ Politics and Jesus Christ. Yesterday, brothers and sisters, yesterday we dealt with My kingdom is not of
this world. Jesus answered them, Jesus is very clear.
00:15 My kingdom is not of this world. If my kingdom were of this world, my servants would fight so that I should not be delivered to the Jews. But now my kingdom is not from this world.
00:31 Brothers and sisters, because of the confusion. What confusion? The confusion is people are looking at a Christian as salt and light. Jesus said, be salt and light.
00:47 And they decided falsely, not scripturally. And they have been taught wrongly that light means they must go and change things. Change the world will make you will make a difference in the world and all that.
00:59 Yes, you will make a difference in the world by making man in peace with God, by making men and women to be in peace with God and to be able to trust Christ and to use the power of Christ. Brothers and sisters, it is not about following the world
and using the world system to change the world. It is impossible.
01:21 You can’t use the world system to change the world because. Because you’ll be caught by it and the world system will change you. Now, on the other hand, there are people who genuinely believe that they have to be part of this government of the world
or any country and then be part of it.
01:38 So they can make a difference and they can bring the solace to the poor, maybe bring the economy better, bring integrity to the nation. Maybe all this is is man’s own thinking, our own thinking. Why very clearly, Jesus says, you cannot do anything
besides me.
02:00 You cannot do anything besides me. You can do all things through Me. And of course, we are nothing without Jesus Christ.
02:08 In Jesus Christ, we can do all things through Him. Further, he has already said, my kingdom is not of this world. And he says, the kingdom of the world, the world, the world’s system of governance.
02:19 The ruler is Satan, the prince of the air. A number of names for this Satan. And he said, you shall overcome Satan by the power given by him.
02:29 Satan came to steal, kill and destroy. But you have been given power to trample on snakes and scorpions. And by no means anything can harm you.
02:39 Now, brothers and sisters, on the other hand, people, because they are not born in the spirit, because they are not thinking. Even if you are born in the spirit and you have not been walking the walk in Christ, you will not know that his command is
to believe in Him. Believe in the one whom he sent believing in the One whom Father God sent is Jesus Christ.
03:02 Everything we believe in him. Now let’s take this simple matter of this politics. The kingdom of the world.
03:11 He is coming back to establish his righteous kingdom. Jesus Christ is coming back to establish his righteous kingdom at a time later that will be in the scripture whereby our citizen, for instance, Philippians 3:20. But we are different because our
citizenship is in heaven.
03:32 Where is our citizenship is in heaven. And from there we eagerly await the coming of the Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ. We are waiting for the Lord Jesus Christ from heaven.
03:43 Our citizenship is in heaven. Now, of course, I have to carry a citizenship of Malaysia because I can’t travel. I can’t travel.
03:54 I can’t travel within the worldly countries because I’m citizen of Malaysia. I need a Malaysian passport. But between the kingdom of darkness, kingdom of light, my cities are became heaven.
04:09 Here I’m a temporary citizen because I will die one day. Every one of us are temporary citizens on earth because that’s why he says we are sojourners. We are people who are going through, we are pilgrims.
04:24 Hebrews 11:16. But the truth is that they were longing for a better country that is a heavenly one. We are talking about the patriarchs, the people who are followed God before us.
04:37 For that reason God is not ashamed to be called their God. God is not ashamed to be called up by God, even to the surname their God, the God of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob. For he has prepared a city for them.
04:50 Yes, Jesus has prepared a city for us. 1 Peter 2:11. Beloved, I urge you, as aliens, as strangers in this world, as aliens and strangers in this world, to abstain from the sensual urges, those dishonorable desires that wage war against the soul.
05:10 Now, what are the dishonorable desires? It’s not just anything sexual or sensual or just. Yes, sexual. Sensual means whatever our flesh wants, whatever our heart, our fallen nature, heart craves for.
05:21 It may crave for power, but it be couched. You know, the heart is so cunning, it’ll cover it by saying, you can do good, you can do good. Go and take a political position.
05:30 Go and take a political position so you can do good. But actually the heart is deceiving us. You go into a political situation, that group, whichever group doesn’t matter, opposition, government or whatever, that group have their own statement of
way of doing things, a mission statement or whatever that is their way.
05:53 You can go change the. You have to follow that because you are agreeing to be part of that system. So if you are going to follow that and several things in that will be against your faith in Christ.
06:10 It will be against. Will be against your faith in Christ. Why? Because they are not born of the Spirit.
06:18 Pity them, they are not yet born of the Spirit. Now until the day I was born of the Spirit, when Jesus Christ arrested me, I. I was doing my own thing. So I was not born of the Spirit.
06:27 I can twist scripture even, and then I twist scripture to my favor. Start asking silly questions on people and jamming them up. But then the born again person will just go away.
06:39 The follower of Christ will just go away. Why? They cannot argue. And then we do not want to argue with people.
06:46 We have to love God. Now in the political party you are in, they will always talk about the other party as bad. Because that’s like two football teams.
06:58 Of course you’re promoting one football team means other football team for you is bad. And you’ll be cheering on your team and you’re angry with the other team when the weller does something or pushes your player or whatever. So all this leads to
robbing your peace.
07:14 Robbing your peace. Without righteousness, peace and joy, we earn nothing, we gain nothing. It’s not profitable.
07:21 He said, seek ye the kingdom of God and righteousness first and all these things will be added. So without righteousness, peace and joy, you cannot gain anything. Finally, what you do, you will end up doing things that each party wants.
07:36 So what do you do? You follow the law of the land. That’s a command. Follow the laws of the land, obey the commandments.
07:42 The only thing you won’t follow is if the law of the land says you cannot worship Jesus Christ, then cannot. Then you have to stand there. And if you are persecuting you by God’s mercy, we pray that we all overcome persecution.
07:54 But we have to follow the laws of the land. The laws of the land has provided for you to be able to vote in this land. At least now there are times there will be dictatorships and all that.
08:07 There will also be corning and deceiving and all kinds of things. And that’s what happens in the world politics. Because fallen nature of man cannot bring real peace.
08:17 Fallen nature of man cannot bring real peace. Fallen nature of man will always be self seeking for their own interest. Because that’s a fallen nature of man.
08:25 What was I? Fallen nature of man, Seeking my own thing. Only all of us who do not follow Christ and have the power of Christ to change our hearts will always look for our own things. So therefore now we are aliens and strangers.
08:39 Not just strangers, now we are aliens and strangers. Do not be part of this world. Jesus Christ saying, do not be part of this world.
08:45 Do not be in second Timothy 2, 4 he has sent us as spiritual soldiers here. Spiritual soldiers. We are soldiers in the spirit.
08:58 We war in the spirit, we battle in the spirit. Physical, we don’t war and battle. No soldier in active service gets entangled in the ordinary business affairs of civilian life.
09:10 2nd Timothy 2. 4. No soldier gets involved in affairs of civilian life, avoids them so that he may please the one who enlisted him to serve.
09:21 We have to please Jesus Christ who enlisted us to serve. Serve what? So I’m a soldier in the spirit. Spiritual soldier.
09:29 And the first weapon of the spiritual soldier is love. Ah, you see that? The first weapon, the weapon of a spiritual soldier. Christ told you Islam.
09:39 So what about these people? This what you call crusaders and all? They’re not Christians. You better understand this. They were not killing people.
09:49 That’s a fact. You can’t go deny that it’s a fact. So the leadership of that group, they were out to take land and gold and jewelry and treasury from the Middle Eastern.
10:01 Yes, there was also Middle Eastern armies for fighting and invading the the European countries. And they then fought back. This all worldly fights.
10:10 Worldly fight. Of course one party will say they invited Europe, that’s why we invited them back and all that. But they can, they can, they are, they are, they are worldly.
10:20 They are, they are part of the system. But by calling them the Christian is false. That’s what the devil’s trick is.
10:28 The devil, Satan’s way is to tarnish the name of Jesus Christ by. By putting these people with a cross. Crusaders and running around everywhere.
10:36 And they were killing and doing all kinds of pillage and whatnot in the Middle Eastern group. And then they decided to put the cross there and everybody. So the devil makes everybody think that Jesus Christ does this or his people do this.
10:49 True followers of Jesus Christ were not participants to that. They were being persecuted by the group that’s going around killing, calling them Christians. That group itself were persecuting the true Christian, persecuting the true Christians who
didn’t want to go and do all this.
11:04 Every time throughout history, there will be always a group of people that just want to humble themselves. Follow Jesus Christ and they will be persecuted. Who said that? Jesus said.
11:14 Jesus said the world will have troubles and if you follow me, you will be persecuted. For I was persecuted first. Jesus Christ says so.
11:26 The crusaders were not Christians. They were not disciples of Christ. They were with a worldly objective and their leadership who of course Satan rules because ruler of the world is Satan.
11:38 Put it in their hearts to call, put a Christ and say they’re doing it for God. There are even now people, Satan enters some demon enters somebody and say I’m doing it for God and start killing people. Because people say I killed this Christian
couples be Christian, I kill this man, I kill this woman.
11:57 Because I’m doing it for God. Because maybe I kill a prostitute because God says punish the prostitute. It’s not wrong.
12:04 It’s absolutely wrong. Why? Jesus will decide what to do with that prostitute. How do you know? Last day before she accepts, actually repents sincerely repent and goes to Christ.
12:16 It’s not for any one of us to suddenly go and kill some prostitute and damage them or try curse them or what we are supposed to love all. The commandment of a disciple is to love all love, even your enemy. If you want to be sons of the most high
God.
12:29 If you love even your enemy to be sons of the most high God, can you be a crusader? Nonsense. So therefore do not put yourself in any situation, not just politics, in any situation that will bring hatred in you, that will bring anger in you. Now all
parties, both parties, their souls, we have to feel sympathy for them, we have to pity them, we have to understand their misery.
12:52 Because people are going to opposite parties because they believe that they will do better, they will bring better for the nation or whatever. They are both parties but at the same time the Spartan belief there will be self seeking in each of them
for their own gains. So the question is so don’t do anything.
13:11 This pastor Chrisilou thought he crackpot. He simply say don’t do. Don’t do.
13:16 No, I didn’t say don’t do. Believe in Jesus Christ, do what he says. Do what Jesus Christ says.
13:17 Believe in Jesus Christ to provide for us a peaceful sanctuary, to pray, worship and to talk about Jesus Christ and those who come to him. No one can come to him unless Father God has allowed to come to him. So this converting people is nonsense
also no certain over in converting people you proclaim the name of Jesus Christ.
13:43 You proclaim the goodness, you proclaim the breath of God, you can give them. Because people need peace. Those who need peace, they will read it.
13:52 They will know Jesus will know how to bring them. You don’t go try to force people follow. Follow.
13:56 That is not following Jesus Christ. They’re following because you’re forced. If you are forcing people to follow Jesus Christ, you are antichrist.
14:04 Now I repeat this. If you’re trying to Manipulate people to follow Jesus Christ. Manipulate only, not even physically forcing.
14:11 You’re trying to manipulate people to follow Jesus Christ. You are antichrist because Jesus Christ says those can only come to him. Those who Father God has allowed.
14:23 2. No one goes to Father God except through me and anyone coming to me, I will likewise not cast away. Now to hold the righteousness, peace and joy.
14:32 You cannot be involved with anything that is robbing your peace. You cannot be involved in anything that is going to get angry with other people. You cannot get involved.
14:43 You want to love all. So can you imagine sitting in one political party and loving the people of other political party so much? What do you think your political party people will do? Kick you out? Then you say, no, I love all. I love all.
14:56 This is not a play because they say those people are doing wrong. One party will say the other party is doing wrong. So.
15:03 But then, so what about me? Do I not show my disc content? I do not want to gather and show this content. Put a play card or walk around and all. Hey, do you believe in Jesus Christ? To settle you settle the people.
15:18 If you believe, then now here you can put a play card and show. Let us say one of our people is sick and dying in the hospital. Will our play cards help? No.
15:29 At the time you have to believe in the power of Jesus Christ. You have to believe in the love of Jesus Christ. You have to to believe.
15:35 By casting out the evil spirits, you bind the spirit of wickedness, violence and all that you can cast out. You can do so many things in the spirit because you are a spiritual soldier. But that’s what you will do.
15:47 When you are supposing, you know in pain, can you put a placard? But you will depend on Jesus Christ, isn’t it? Now, having said that, then what happens? But here in politics or something else, you must get up and do. You must get up and do. No.
16:02 Believe in Jesus Christ. Use his precepts. So anyone looking at his word of Jesus Christ and then just turning away and forgetting and not doing it.
16:13 You are like a man who has seen yourself in the mirror. And then when you turn away, you forget your face. Brothers and sisters, today we understand believing in Jesus Christ is the most important thing.
16:23 Believe in the one whom he sent and you do his will, love him. And then you’ll be able to move mountains. He says, with faith the size of the grain of a mustard seed, you can move mountains.
16:34 Brothers and sisters, today remember anything trying to rob your eternity. Remember you are an alien and a stranger on earth. Anything trying to rob your eternity? Anything Trying to help righteousness, peace and joy.
16:46 Run away. Go and get righteousness, peace and joy first. In the name of Jesus Christ, I pray.
16:51 Amen.
