00:01 Praise Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Brothers and sisters, today the power of Christ Daily 25th December 2015 titled Christmas and you gave me nothing. You gave me nothing. This is Jesus saying you gave me nothing.

00:16 It is nothing. But of course you didn’t say Christmas and Christmas is not true. About 60, 70, 80 years ago, some ridiculous number of years later, only they all introduce all these human traditional and they say they are spreading the gospel.

00:30 Some will say, yeah, we know Jesus not born on 25th and all that, but we are spreading the gospel using Christmas. But there’s another scripture. If you spread the gospel with a lie, you will be condemned as a liar and a sinner.

00:45 Praise Jesus Christ. I hope to teach that one of these days. But if we can go and search it.

00:50 Spreading gospel of increasing the glory of God with the light. Just search that in your google or whatever. Increasing glory of God through my life scripture.

01:01 You’ll get it if you’re interested. You’ve got to search for it. But I will of course as the Lord list will do this now.

01:07 Brothers and sisters, this thing Christmas is not true. So what I’m dealing with. Jesus didn’t say Christmas and you gave me nothing.

01:15 But Jesus said you gave me nothing. The scripture will come to that later. In Romans 13:12.

01:20 13 Romans 13:12 13. The night, this present evil age is almost gone. Amplified Version the night is almost gone.

01:32 The night. They consider it this present evil age. The night is almost gone, and the day of Christ’s return is almost here.

01:41 So let us fling away the works of darkness and put on the full armor of God. The full armor of light. Sorry, full armor of light.

01:50 Here. Romans 12, 13, 12. The night is almost gone, and the day of Christ’s return is almost here.

01:59 The present evil age is almost gone. And the day of Christ’s return is almost here. So let us throw away the works of darkness and put on the full armor of light.

02:10 13:13 Romans, let us conduct ourselves properly and honorably as in the light of day. Not in carousing, carousing, revelry and drunkenness. Not in sexual promiscuity and irresponsibility.

02:27 Not in quarreling and jealousy. Brothers and sisters. Karrosin.

02:31 Karrosin. C A R O U S I N G Get the email. The scripture over there.

02:37 Revelry. Some Bibles will say revelry. R E V E L R Y kerosene.

02:42 Revelry. How do I explain this carousing revelry? Let us party. Let us party.

02:48 Jump around and all this rubbish that is coercing and revelry and drunkenness not in sexual process drinking. Irresponsibility. Irresponsibility.

02:58 Irresponsibility means irresponsibly reacting and in quarreling and jealousy. Let’s not conduct ourselves like this at all. Let’s conduct ourselves the truth.

03:08 Now. Do you know how much is being spent in the year end America? In America alone. Suppose you go and put in the Google and say it’s 600 billion billion b I l l I o n 600 billion I spent in a few months and much of it is Christmas.

03:27 They’ll say you put 600 billion USD spent Christmas. You get the Google and you’ll read yourself the statistics. US$600 billion.

03:38 There are one or two other festivals. Halloween is a worship of devil. And yet the Americans and a lot of western countries allow the children to go around masquerading and all that.

03:50 Can you imagine US$1 billion is spent on Halloween. US dollars 1 billion. But 600 billion is Christmas.

04:00 Largest 1 billion spent on US$350 million. That means one over billion ringgit. One over billion ringgit is spent on clothes for their pets.

04:15 On this Halloween Halloween costume for pets for animals. Brothers and sisters, now let’s read it. And all over the world this nonsense goes on.

04:22 But never mind. Let us look at this now. 600 billion is 2.

04:38 4 billion trillion ringgit trillion. No, now let’s look at the numbers. 1 billion is 9 0.

04:50 Put number 1 there, 1 there and add 9 zeros. That is 1 billion. 600 billion is 6 with 11 zeros.

04:59 1 trillion. 1 trillion is 1 with 9 zeros following with 9 zeros. Now if you take a nation ringgit.

05:04 600 billion is 2.4 trillion. Ringgit trillion.

05:23 To put a 2 there and add 12 zeros. 12 zeros. Can you imagine now brothers and sisters, can you imagine 12 zeros that the money spent on this thing.

05:42 And you know what? And we think we are all glorifying Christ with this because it is Christmas. First of all the disciples, apostles and all the early disciples, I think as much as 60 years or something never celebrated this. Even after that the
true Christians never celebrated.

05:50 Those people won the world. The worldly Christians started celebrating this. True Christians stayed away from this and they were persecuted for this.

06:07 When they didn’t want to follow what the worldly Christians are trying to do, the worldly Roman church decided to persecute them. Can you imagine now in Matthew? So what should we do now? Ask yourself. No carousing, jumping around rivalry.

06:17 You know, hey, let’s Party and come and nobody thinks of a Christ and nobody thinks about calling him. They only call him when they got trouble. But that time your heart won’t have the faith.

06:35 When you have partying every day going on this way, Christmas last, this, last that last, some party or other year end, New Year, all that going and you don’t think about Jesus Christ. Finally when you’re in trouble, the faith won’t be there. Then
what you do, you merely put down the pray, pray, pray for me, brother.

06:43 True, everybody will pray. Those believers, true believers will start praying. And just because somebody says I prayed for you doesn’t mean anything, it doesn’t work.

06:57 The person who is praying must have heartfelt prayer and know that they have the power in Christ to do it. Those are the prayers that are working. Just because everybody says I prayed for you, I prayed for you, I prayed for you, it doesn’t work.

07:15 But the point is this, you know, of course some will put a prayer there that’s important so that you can use the prayer for yourself. That’s why they’re putting the prayer there and that there are many who will not bothered because they are praying.
They are asking Jesus to help you and get settled this because you are brother and sister in Christ.

07:27 Now this is the warning of all Christians if you are to follow. Now I’m not telling you, I’m making a doctrine here, I’m telling you what to do. No, no, I’m not doing, I’m just showing the truth and it’s for you to what you want to try.

07:38 Now let’s look at what Jesus is leading us today. You gave me nothing. He said, Matthew 25, 34, 46, Matthew 25, 34, 46,.

07:53 34. Then the king will say to those on his right, the king, Jesus Christ, come. You blessed of my father, you, favoured of God, appointed to eternal salvation, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world.

08:02 From the foundation of the world. For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat. I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink.

08:11 I was a stranger and you invited me in. I was naked and you clothed me me. I was sick and you visited me with help and ministering care.

08:23 I was in prison and you came to me ignoring personal danger. Now remember when Jesus said I was in prison? He was not in prison for doing wrong things, he was in prison. Now let’s go on.

08:50 Then the righteous will answer him, Lord, when did he see you hungry and feed you or thirsty and give you something to drink? And when did he see you as a stranger, invite you in or naked and clothe you. And when they see you sick or imprisoned and
come to you, the king will answer to them saying I assure you. And most solemnly seriously say to you to the extent that you did it for one of these brothers of mine, even the least of them, you did it to me.

09:00 Now the brothers of Christ will not be in prison for doing wrong thing. Not murder and stealing and all the rubbish, fighting and all that. No there will be prison.

09:09 Means they are persecuted because they are standing for the righteousness of Christ. They want to stand for the gospel of Christ. Though they have been put in prison all over the world today.

09:18 Why a lot of people are spending. Actually all of the world means more than a trillion US dollars are spent in this season. Trillion.

09:28 That means four trillion trillion ringgits are spent in this season for this so called Christmas story wires. People are suffering. People are persecuted.

09:36 The children of God in prison because they do not want to change and follow something else. And they are forced what is there. You force.

09:46 You give up Christianity Christ or I fix you, I kill you. They are prison and they are being killed also. Now all over the world is happening and they are hungry.

09:55 They will not take weapons. They will not take weapons. They are crying unto Jesus Christ to know the absence from the body is present with the Lord just suffering.

09:59 There are many now, not even Christians. I’m talking now. You are supposed to help all.

10:10 Because he didn’t say only help the Christians. He said, but he’s using his example. You did not do any of this for my brethren.

10:20 So if you say you are Christian and you don’t do this for any of the brethren all over the world, whoever it is, people start with your own congregation. Start with your own congregation. There are people who are suffering there.

10:33 There are people suffering there. You may not know because you are not taking, if you may not be taking stock of what is who in your congregation. Okay, they dress up and come for the Sunday or whatever.

10:47 And you may think everything is fine, ministering, ministering to them. They are sick, they are in trouble, they got money problem. Then you have to guide them and say why the money problem? Because if you are not good stewards of God’s money, money
problem come.

10:53 Devil came to steal, killer destroy. Now he says goes on here. Now the next portion.

10:57 I was a stranger. You did not invite me in. You gave me nothing to eat.

11:02 I was hungry and you gave me nothing to eat. I was thirsty and you gave me nothing to drink. That’s the title.

11:05 No, you gave me nothing. I was a stranger. You did not invite me in, you did not clothe me, you did not visit me.

11:19 You did not do it. If you did not do it, one of the least of my brethren, least of my followers, you did not do it for me. This is a command.

11:26 Now you better start thinking about the followers of Christ, of Christians all over the world. All over. First your congregation, that command.

11:41 After that, the others who are supposed to be Christians, suffering, why they have been persecuted, they actually have nothing sometimes. And here 1 trillion USD is spent on this junk. Junk.

11:57 And we say we have Christians. Jesus said, look here, you did not consider all this and there are Christians in jail for standing for Christ. I don’t hear of any case in Malaysia, so therefore I do not know.

12:06 But for standing for Christ, you know so truly standing for Christ. So no such case here. So I do not know.

12:15 I have not heard any thank Jesus, but all of the world is happening. But let’s start with just giving. When they have nothing to eat, when they have nothing to drink.

12:45 Brothers and sisters, can we say this is not a doctrine? I’m not telling you what to do. I’m only suggesting maybe every time you spend money on something, some festival, some dinner, wedding dinners, party, whatever you are spending, of course you
can take, say 20, 30, 40, 50% even of that expenditure. And can we give it to the poor? Can we give it to them who can have nothing? Can we now go buy clothes or contribute to some organization? Check.

12:53 Organization. Many, some of them are crooks just collecting money from people and not giving the poor whatever you have to check. Be led by the spirit of God.

12:55 I’m not telling. You must, I’m telling you. Check.

13:11 Brothers and sisters, can we do this? Can we when we are having a dinner party, congregation, whatever, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50% of what you’re spending, can we put aside to care for this thing? Give it to them. Help the people first in your own
congregation. First take care of your own family.

13:23 God says what? Take care of your own household. If you do not provide for your own household, you are worse than an unbeliever. Now remember, brothers and sisters, those husbands, some of them are not doing anything, you know, they are not providing
for their own household.

13:34 You have to provide for your own household first. Then the household of faith, then the congregation. Then you are looking at others who need, who need things, not want things.

13:39 Somebody. I want this toy and that toy for Christmas. Don’t worry about those people you are talking.

13:44 I want this. I Want a holiday for Christmas? Oh you and a holiday. You never give me a holiday.

13:56 It all self seeking nonsense. Forget about that. You are looking at people who need, need, need, need food, need things, need drinks, need clothes.

14:12 And clothes also do not buy new clothes and give to the poor. Because then the two, three poor fellas were having all brand new clothes. The others all suffering with old clothes go and get to another organizations like in Europe and all and
Australia and all they have salvation.

14:18 They call it salvosa. They call it. They give the school clothes and all cheaply to them.

14:26 People can buy cheaply. But we’re not even talking about that. There may be lot of places in your own country, sir, brothers and sisters, there will be if you take time.

14:50 When you are spending money on anything on, on parties or dinners or whatever. Can we think, can we think and say this budget, I’m spending a thousand ringgit for gathering. Can we take 2200, add a thousand two hundred ringgit, add another 300
ringgit, add another 400, add whatever you are ready to do.

15:25 And let’s see how we can help some poor people. Some poor people. Can we and say Lord, now let’s see what the trouble is Here in The same scripture that is, I’m talking about Matthew 25, Matthew 25, he says to those people who did not do all this in
45, Matthew 25:45 says, then he will reply to them, I assure you and most solemnly say to you to the extent that you did not do it for one of the least of these my followers, you did not do it for me.

15:59 And 46 says, Then these unbelieving people will go away into eternal unending punishment. How is that for a warning? How is that for sobering us up during this season? Then these unbelieving people will go away into eternal unending punishment for
those who are righteous and in right standing with God will go by his remarkable grace into eternal unending life. Now he is talking about people who didn’t give anything, didn’t give nothing, didn’t give nothing to eat nothing, didn’t care about
the poor, didn’t care about anything.

16:11 Just give party, that’s all. And he’s saying these unclean people will go away into eternal punishment. Brothers and sisters, today let us wise up.

16:20 Let us wise up. Let us think about Jesus Christ in every day of our lives because we don’t do this. When the trouble comes, your heart and mind cannot have the faith.

16:29 You will then start crying out for people to pray and all this. Yes, you are required to ask. Those who are following Jesus Christ are also required to ask others to pray.

16:48 But then you must be praying first yourself and then you ask others to pray. And one cases, a thousand evil demons, two cases 10,000, three will cause 100,000 in the same mathematical progression. But you have to first, you have to.

16:59 And then when you’re shaking, then somebody will stand with you, brothers and sisters. But if you don’t care, you do all this rubbish and don’t care what Jesus says, then that’s danger. Brothers, in Jesus name I pray you’ll know.

Amen.
