Winona Conference Part 5 – Outside of Time and Space Fellowship with Christ

Okay, buster, you just stay here on this earth and rot for all I care. Get your wings and go, get up one morning with Psalm 23, and just make sure it’s not you, and have some time with the Lord, and see. Well, I would like to say that’s all it would take, and it does, but I also know you. You are weak-willed and undisciplined. Say amen. You are weak-willed and undisciplined. Therefore, you need the Lord. But you need one other thing. What do you need? You need the body of Christ, the church of the living God. You need the church in Corinth, or you need the church in Ephesus, or you need the church in Chicago. And you need a little time and a little practice, and that’s why I’ve come to this business of once a week for six, eight, 10 weeks. And boy, listen, I don’t particularly like this idea. Do you think I really want to do this? I have no desire to leave my home. I have a very lovely home, a very comfortable home, and come out here and sleep in somebody’s bedroom, which, by the way, I can’t, it takes more room than one bedroom for me. I spread out over three or four rooms: two rooms. I take my wife with me because she’s the only one who can cook for me. I don’t like traveling, but I’ll do this. I’m going to experiment and see if this works. It worked in Portland, Maine. In 10 weeks, I watched lives change. I’m willing to do it again. It takes a little bit more, but if you’re one of these people who can and you have a heart for the Lord, I recommend you take Colossians…what was that verse? Colossians 1:15-18. I recommend you take Psalm 23. Those are the two easiest passages I know, and come before the Lord with them and begin to touch the eternals.

Alright, talk to me. Talk to me if you’re not…You’re welcome. It is my joy, my privilege, my calling, my unction, my obsession. I have to, so there’s no thanks to be given. I’d do it to stumps and trees if men would not listen. You have no questions. I see a question, yes?

That’s where you’re headed, brother. That’s where you’re headed. Yes, brother. It’s really simple. Go where you really are. Get inside of Christ.
