hello everybody I'm Alfred I am listening to Alfred's Bible Club podcast I like to address the question who is the God of this world let's open our Bibles to the Book of Matthew 4:8 to 10 I'm reading from the King James version I read again the devil taking him up into an exceeding high mountain and showed him all the kingdoms of the world and the glory of them and said unto him all these things will I give thee if thou will fall down and worship me then said Jesus unto him get the hand Satan for it is written thou shall Worship the Lord thy God and him only shall thy save this is very important you know the question is who is the God of this world it has been said in Christian circles that the God of this world refers to the devil you know and the things of this world worldly things that the runs the devil runs the systems of this world and you know he the prince of the power of the and all of that but you have to understand something when you study the Bible you have to read with the understanding of what part of it is Testaments and what part of it is New Testaments you need to understand that because that is a very strong divining line and the New Testament is different from the New Testament section of the Bible the New Testament section of the Bible begins in m but the true New Testament begins after the resurrection of Jesus because not until the death of a testator can the will be put into effect so for the New Testament to start Jesus had to die so the New Testament actually starts after the death burial and resurrection that is when we move into the New Testament that is when the old Covenant and all of that you know has now been fulfilled in the New Testament we no longer live under the old Covenant and all the old stuff that birth to what we have now but we are not under that so you have to have this understanding when you're reading the scriptures a lot of people look at something like in 2 Corinthians chapter 4:3 to5 where it says but if our gospel be heed it is heed to them that are lost in whom the God of this world had blinded their minds of them which believe not Le the light of the Glorious gospel of Christ who is the image of God should shine upon them for we preach not of ourselves but Christ Jesus the Lord and ourselves your servants for Jesus sake now there are a lot of problems with this portion of the scripture first of all you have to understand Revelation when people come into Christ they grw in Revelation they don't know everything at once this portion of the scripture calls the devil the God of this world it also does something that is not possible you know that should rais flags as to the level of revelation of the speaker at the time he says that if our gospel be he it is he to them that are lost in whom the God of this world had blinded the minds of them which believe not least the light of the G gospel of Christ who is the image of God should shine on them he saying that Satan has the ability to Blind the minds of people to for not to receive the Gospel if Satan this ability why doesn't it on everybody and then nobody gives their life to Christ nobody believes in Jesus you have to understand the concept of the God of this world what I want you to realize is that we are living in the New Testament in the New Testament everything has changed originally from the beginning Adam Adam was created to be the God of this world he was given charge of this world when he fell it moved to Satan so all that while from the fall of Man to the Dead be and resurrection of Jesus it was Satan that was the God of this world and that is why you can see in Matthew 410 you see Jesus did not challenge Satan's ownership of all the things he said were his oh I I will give you the kingdoms of this world there you could ask why didn't Jesus use the scure the is andness didn't that scus that you should Worship the Lord thy God and him only shall thou save he used that he did not deny the owner ship of Satan at that time but after the death burial and resurrection of Jesus understand that Satan was super demoted his entire Kingdom has been demoted the least Christian is more powerful than the greatest demon that is why we do not care about rankings of demons there are people who write books about demons and oh B this and this demon that they like to know the names of different devils and the stories and histories and all the things they don't get from the Bible they get it from the demons why do you think that the Dem will tell the truth you know there are a lot of Christian books thator and stories of how different operate their names and all of that it is not necessary what you need to know is that you have power over all of them you have power over the biggest of them Satan and all these other ones are just small ones let them be big in their own eyes that is their cup of tea where you are you are bigger than them you see that is the reality when you look at the Book of Matthew chap 28 vers 18 to 20 it says and Jus came and spake unto them saying all power is given to me in heaven and in Earth go ye therefore this is after the death bur and resurrection of Jesus all power is given to me in heaven and in Earth Jesus speaking go ye therefore and teach All Nations baptizing them in the name of the father of the son and of the Holy Ghost teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you and lo I Am With You Always even to the end of the world this contradicts the power that 2 Corinthians 43 to5 five claims that Satan has over blinding the minds of people Satan does not have any fixed power to Blind anybody's mind if someone's mind is blinded to the gospel it is their choice it is them that submitted to Satan they choose to be blind keep in mind God has given the authority in the in the Book of Matthew 2818 to2 he's telling you that all is given to to him and he's telling you go and preach the gospel baptizing them so if God if Jesus who has all the power is given the authority to go forth and preach and baptize people in the name of Jus what right does Satan have to go to those people and blind their eyes and this is very important so when you have this understanding of things you you to change how you move and it will also change the results you have and they also had the importance of interceding a lot of people don't intercede in so willing you have to understand the place of intercessory prayer you intercede and pray before you go out the people I meet today I'm going to them out reach out to them with gospel there are many ways you can reach people with gospel you can give them a Christian book you can give them a Bible it goes beyond the foolishness of saying I'm going to my life in a Christian way living your life in a good and moral Christian way is not going to lead people to Christ it may make some people happy but it is not going to lead people to Christ there's that misconception and Satan has used it to stop preaching every movement in this world every movement that has come in this world and every cult every group The harrish the this the the LGBT all those people had to teach people had to tell people come and join and then teach their doctr or their beliefs so you as as a Christian why do you think that just by living your life right it will attract people and then people will now change even if they impressed they are not going to change after all haven't you seen people that are excelling in their field that did that make you like for example you saw Michael Jordan did see Michael Jordan play basketball very well did it make you become a great basketball player no for you to become a great basketball player you need to have someone who will teach you how to play basketball you have to have a coach and then you have to Lear and commit and then walk on that Ro you know we cannot be in the foolishness of thinking that we will just live our lives right and then people will see us and change Jesus Lives his right right yet people saw him and made up all kinds of lies about him they going to do the same to you so living your right your life in the right way is not enough people are going to see all kinds of and make up all kinds of lies about you like the of Jesus so you have to actively be involved whether it's giving out Christian devotionals giving out Bibles talking to people you know it doesn't have to sound like Aon it doesn't have to sound like um a scripted philosophical or sorry you know philosophy has nothing to do with Christianity but what I mean to say it doesn't have to sound like a seminary dialogue it does have to sound like something that is overeducated just a normal conversation the same way you talk about football the same way you can start up a conversation about sports or about um politics start up a conversation abouts you know and Everywhere You Go lead people to Christ talk to people and be involved in bigger larger skill

oneg YouTube channel you know like a video game you know like a crusade there are bigger things so be involved in those larger things that have bigger rich and groups are movement that have ways of getting people in large numbers to come to Christ and to grow and be maintained in Christ we must do that that important so back to what saying you have to understand the concept of the god of D World all power has been given to Jesus and understand this you know in the book of Philippians 2: 9-1 is written wherefore God also highly exalted him and given him a name which is above every name that at the name of Jesus every KN should bow of things in heaven of things in Earth and of things under the Earth and that every tongue should confess that Jus is Lord to the glory of God the father so how is Satan the God of this world when he has to bow to the the name of Jesus and you have been given the authority to use the name of Jesus so you want to know who is really the God of this world who is really in charge of this world it is the church the church is in charge of this world and the problem with the world is that the church has not come into this realization of this is his role there is no power higher than the church and keep in mind that we are the body and Christ is the head of the church understand that that is the formula that makes up the church that is the of the church Christ is the head we are the body so we are in charge not the devil so who is the God of this world who is the one to be running this world who is supposed to be running this world who has the authority to be running this world the church we Christians with Christ as our head we have the authority to be running this world but because we don't not know we have left things to go to the hands of children of the devil who are captains of industry you know heads of Fortune 500 companies and all of that to be calling the shs and to be controlling the way the world works why is there not the Christian United Nations you know un why is there not a Christian World economic Forum why is there not a Christian Microsoft you know all these companies the Microsoft the Tesla the Apple why are they not Christians why can't we as Christians we have the numbers now come together and be the ones running this we are the ones who actually have the authority to do that it says everything every name you know that the name of the name of every bow of things in heav of things in and things the so all things whether it is business whether the world of business you know animate things or inanimate things it does not refect only human beings whether it is cancer whether it is tumor everything bows to the name of Jesus so there is nothing that is above the church so the church is actually the God of this world but they don't know it and this is why I'm telling you you know so understand this place and we have to move into it we have to understand you know you cannot change this world without money you cannot make lasting Imp in this world without being the richest ones in the world we have to be the richest people in the world the Christians the church has to be the richest people in the world and we have to now use that authority to bless it's not like we we can't look at money as something like money in itself is the goal but it's what money can do that is the point we need money to change the world we need money to change things it's like difference between money and power power is more important than money and power is more powerful than money but those two things are two different things power and money some people waste their time chasing money you know and there are people who waste their time chasing power but they actually at least smarter than the ones that are just chasing money you know but in Christ we have what's bigger than the two of them and everything else combined we have what money inside Christ and power is inside Christ and receive power after that the Holy Ghost come upon you money is inside Christ wisdom is the principle thing you know with wisdom when read the book of prbs CH 4 and prb 8 you will see that wisdom says wealth and riches are with me lasting riches and you know Christ is our wisdom so wisdom is inside Christ because Christ is wisdom and since wealth and Lasting riches are with wisdom money is inside Christ so with Christ you have money you have power and so much more the Lesser is included in the greater so we need to be smart understand right now we have left the world in in a state because we don't realize our position we have left the world such that you know there are people look at for example the music streaming platforms look at the Netflix these are run by people who clearly have an agenda against Christ these are people who the owners have said like the leaders of Disney on video who were talking about that they are going to put LGBT programming in all the program for children they want children to be gay and to view homosexuality and transgenderism as normal that means that they have to reject when you teach a child that that that is normal they have toize Christianity because Christianity is directly opposed to it when teach a child that it is normal for a man to marry a man and that anybody who says otherwise is evil you are telling them you indirectly you have created anenue where they have to see the Bible as evil where they have to see the Bible as old fashioned it's intentional and it goes into every single thing when you look at television and TV shows all stories have a moral to the story there's a lesson to learn and what are the lessons that are being learn from Netflix movies and all the things that are put there there are lessons that glorify things that are not of God that that glorify an ungodly way of thinking it's intentional these people who own all these things they view Christianity as something that is an enemy something that is holding the world back and they will do everything slowly but surely to make it impossible for you to be a Christian look at what they did at the Olympic Games they making fun of the Last Supper it was intentional the previous games before that the invit games they did a mo the same ceremony that was used to burn Christians where they put Christians in a andn they did that and people were bowing down to a cal many people did not even C the symbolism of it these people are serious about their hatred for Christianity and their move and the Bible also tells about the Antichrist and what heans to do so you see these things these are not things that come as a surprise to you but right now while this is before the Rapture of the church we are the gods of this world we are the ones that are in charge because everything is below the name of Jesus and the Christian is the only one who has the right the power for Tony to use the name of Jesus so we are in charge we should make this world as beautiful as we can as Heaven on as we can anything keep in mind that you that you can think of that you are capable of thinking of that heaven will be create it here God wants you to create it here not weit because keep in mind your mind is blocked from seeing the beauty of how Heaven is really going to be it doesn't matter how many people have seen visions of Heaven you did not see all of it and you know there there's more than one Heaven Paul talked about you know being C up to the heav there are more and the Bible also about the new heav and the new so there's also going to be a new heav so when it comes to Heaven I have not seen or ear head God has made sure that no matter who you are when you get to heaven you are going to be surprised and amazed at how beautiful it is so every beautiful imagination you have on Earth of how beautiful Heaven can be create it here on and you have the ability to to do so don't worry you are not going to out surprise God or or or create something more beautiful than God is capable of creating is impossible your mind is incapable of creating anything that will touch how beautiful Heaven is going to be so all the beautiful thoughts of paradise that you have in your mind cre here on when the Rapture happens then that is when the world we see the importance of Christians that is when the world we see that truly these people were the light of the world you know when everything scatters during the tribulation period you know and those who are not super deceived you know will see that wow when Christians were here you know those F first because there will be Christians during the tribulation period you know see that that period you know before the tribulation wow Christians were really the reasons why things had not gone so so keep that in mind that being said make sure you check out you know alfred.
