### Quotes for Outreach
1. "Everyone has power. And also everyone is under power. But he says we're not into the power thing. What we're into is understanding perception, perception, how we see things. Is that we have the same need for God's mercy and grace. We have the same need to be loved and be cared for. In humility. With a sense of love. In a sense that I'm here to serve. That is, I am in kind of the dirt with you. Who am I to say I'm superior? Oh, yeah, some may have bigger jobs and make more money. I understand on a worldly level. But after all this said and done, in humility, value others." [15:34]
2. "Self-preservation, you don't notice me, I'm dead. Now, we get a little bit more sophisticated, right? If you don't notice me, I'm dead. I'm not going to make it. So, I've got to have this. I've got to have that. I have to do what I want. I have to, okay, I'm not going to go deep. I don't have to go any deeper in that. The fact is, the Lord says, I am the source of your life. I am the one who not only have given your life, but I'll preserve it. And so, don't just be focused on yourself." [20:34]
3. "Love your neighbor as yourself. What does that mean? I get a little irritated when people think it's good self-esteem. Now, I understand self-esteem. I think I understand the importance of not, I just, I'm not going to go there. You can hear that some other time from someone else. But a lot of people say, self, you've got to love yourself. Hey, I'm not happy. I've got to do what I need to do to be happy. Even if that means going like this to things that were important, going like this to people that were important, going like this to values that were important, I just need to be me. I've got to love myself." [21:23]
4. "The Father created. The Father gave you life. You're not an accident. I don't care what someone said. Father created, and the Father sustains. He created all those physical forces that make it possible for us to live and to breathe and to have some continuity, and when we jump, we'll come back down, as opposed to if we're on the moon, we'll jump, and it takes a whole lot longer to come down to the ground. Same principles involve different mass, okay? All right, so he creates, and he sustains creation." [03:58]
### Quotes for Members
1. "They were baptized because Jesus said, baptized in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, and go and assure them that they're never, ever, ever, ever alone. I'll be with you always. Why do we, why in the Holy Christian Church do we emphasize Father, Son, and Holy Spirit? Can't we just say, hey, look, there's a God, folks. Well, you know what? It's better to say there is a God than there is not a God on the one hand. But then the question is, tell me about your God." [01:58]
2. "Jesus, the Son is going to be made flesh. He's going to sit where people sit. He's going to be born the way people are born. There's going to be an umbilical cord that's cut. He's going to take his first breath, and then he's going to immerse himself in the human experience, as opposed to just this, like a consultant saying, this is what I think you need to do. No, I'm going to do it. And he became flesh, as it says in Scripture, and dwelt with us and in us." [05:37]
3. "They were selfless. They already now no one is there's no they're not saved because they were servant spirit led people but that was because they were baptized in the name of the Father Son and Holy Spirit and understood what that meant and the implication of then how do you do life how do you do life isn't that the question a lot how do we do life the word the thread was the selfless and giving okay and we all have a little chance to do that even if at this point someone might be saying and I don't know about that or wow you know my first X number of years I haven't been doing a whole lot of that hey that the Lord always says where are we today let's go let's go from here okay can we go from here you cannot undo the past you cannot un make a loaf of bread and let's just let's just go let's go from here." [10:42]
4. "Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit rather in humility humility oh that doesn't mean oh I'm a nothing I ain't gonna amount to anything no humility basically it's from the word humus which which is of the dirt, it's a Greek word, of the dirt. That is, we all come from the same stuff. I heard this four times. Ashes to ashes, dust to dust. Let's remember, let us acknowledge the truth, the reality, that we're all in the same boat. We have the same end. So who am I to say I am above you?" [14:36]
5. "The Spirit will be with you, with you, and in you. The Spirit, Jesus, before he lifted him, was lifted from the grave, and went into the presence of the Father, he said, you're not going to see me. This is Jesus, son of Mary, went into the grave, came out of the grave, defeated the power and the curse of sin, which drapes itself around each one of us. I'm going to send the Spirit, and he's going to, you he's going to bring to mind what I've told you and wow what all has he told us we can't say it all by any means it's just too marvelous and too much but basically he said because I live you're going to live because I live you're going to live he's going to remind you of the face and the hope that we have in Christ."
