### Quotes for Members
1. "The church by and large on a Sunday morning is an imperfect situation. I can't bring the Holy Spirit into this building to make Him perfect, to make the building perfect, but you can. You can bring Jesus into your heart. You can be perfect on the inside. Jesus said, I am the perfecter of your faith. You can have the perfection that you seek in the building in your heart. But people run around looking at church asking for the perfection in the building before they've worked out the perfection of the faith that Jesus Christ has promised them in their hearts."

2. "If we are in unity with the Holy Spirit, we're at the heart of the spiritual phenomenon called the church, and because we are the church, the spiritual phenomenon is happening in us. You are a spiritual phenomenon. With your past, do you really think Jesus should forgive you? It's a spiritual phenomenon that he's given you the grace to forgive you and then still given you eternal life on top of that." [18:04] (26 seconds) (Download raw clip | Download cropped clip)
3. "The journey of the church is to be obedient to the Holy Spirit as He directs you towards your relationship with Jesus so you can understand the Father. Church, we've got it all wrong. We have chained ourselves to the cross. The cross. Yes, it's an important part, but it's only one part. We want to be obedient to the blessing of salvation before we are obedient to the blessing of the promptings of the Holy Spirit. The two cannot work in separate places."

4. "Prosperity is when I'm getting all of the Holy Spirit, all of the Christ, and all of the Father all together all the time. That's prosperity. Trust me, I can walk through any circumstance if I've got the wisdom of the Holy Spirit, the wonder of Jesus Christ, and the love of the Father in full color in front of me. I don't even see my circumstance. What illness? What financial crisis? What do you mean? We're going to be loved and we're going to go in numbers in summer and therefore it's going to be our lowest giving weeks. What do you mean? I don't bow down to the accountancy of this world. I bow down to the wonder of Jesus Christ who introduced me to the counsel of the Holy Spirit that completely is sold out to showing me the relationship with the Father."

5. "You can't have authority over your circumstance unless you are under the authority of Jesus Christ directed to you by the Holy Spirit. Let's read it. Ephesians chapter 2, verse 2 to 10 in closing. Once you were dead because of your disobedience and your many sins. Anybody feel that? My life was trash. Like I was dying inside. My journal was covered in dark thoughts. I was dark. Everything I thought about was dark. It was dead. It was going nowhere. I didn't want to be with myself, let alone be with other people. In fact, if I could just call up into a little ball and let some hole swallow me, I'd be much better off." [42:39] (43 seconds) (Download raw clip | Download cropped clip)
