Mario Murillo: Freed from Chains of Darkness to Live in the Light of the Lord (Acts 26:18)
Mario speaks at the Living Proof Tent Crusade in Bakersfield, CA, on 3/12/2023. Quotes: We've created an easy, comfortable on-ramp into the church where we let people think they can negotiate with God. No! In reality, "every knee will bow, and every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord." [Philippians 2:10] God is not a babysitter, He is not a life coach, or statue in the front of your car - He is King of Kings and Lord of Lords. I don't want you to take Jesus like a temporary cure. I want you to kneel before Him and say, 'You are not an object of my faith; You are not a philosophy I'm following - You are my God.”

Unthankful, unholy.
The Bible talks about the violent spirit.
You look at the story of Manuel.
You listen to him talk about how he was involved in violence,
and violence is addictive.
There's a very strange verse in the Proverbs. [Proverbs 4:16]
It says, this kind of man can't sleep unless he shed blood. 
I can't even imagine somebody that their sense
of wellbeing comes after they've committed a murder,
but we're headed there.
Our streets overrun with it,
and it's not just coming from the bad neighborhoods.
This murder spirit that's spreading
is because society has turned its back on God.
Now, here we go... What do you want me to do?
What do you want me to do Mario Murillo?
What do you want me to do?
First of all I want you to look at me,
and admit the way the special way
that the devil is lying to you.
He's lying to you like no one else.
Some of you, the way he's lying is... is you're not in danger.
Yes, you are!
Because every knee is going to bow
and every tongue is going to confess,
and you can do it now where it does you nothing but good,
or you can do it then where it does nothing but pain.
And so what do we do?
We come to the point where we say inside of ourselves,
"Maybe I'll try a little church, little bit of religion."
And suddenly that becomes your counterfeit.
You start faking that you believe in God,
all the while knowing inside of your heart
that you will not break up a relationship
even if God tells you to.
You'll not stop a drug, even if God tells you to.
You'll read the Bible as talking points
and not as the Word of God.
You'll treat prayer as your go-to exit.
Every once in a while you'll go to God
because you can't go anywhere else, but then you leaving.
So it's like you're burning the candle
of your life for yourself,
and then you're blowing the smoke in God's face,
and you think there's no consequence.
You don't understand the people
who are in this room that are safe,
and those who are in danger.
Here's how you can know you're in danger...
if none of this moves you.
You're in danger if none of...
I'm saying is feels like it's for you.
You're in danger if you're sitting under this tent,
and you don't realize
how close you are to having an incurable case.
Who's the person that's safe?
He's over here starting to cry right over there.
It's a person that's shaking in their seat
because they go, "I need God, I need God."
And you say, "Well, preacher
why don't you give him a chance to get saved?"
Because that's what we've done.
We've created this easy, comfortable on-ramp
where we let people think they can negotiate with God.
When "every knee will bow
and every tongue will confess." [Philippians 2:10]
Not that He's a babysitter, not that He's a life coach,
not that He's a statue in the front of your car
but He is the Lord of Lords,
and the King of Kings, who deserves our total commitment.
Close your eyes.
Nobody move.
"Mario, today I want to get right with God"
Right With God.
I don't want to turn over a new leaf.
I don't want to take Jesus like a temporary cure.
I want to kneel before Him,
I want to spread my hands up and to the side,
and say, 'You are not an object of my faith, 
You are not a philosophy I'm following,
You are my God.
You are the reason that I am living.
And I thank you that You saved me before it was too late.
And I thank you that You had mercy on me to allow
me to hear this sermon and make the right choice.'"
I want you to understand it.
In a moment, I'm going to ask you to raise your hand.
If you're outside this tent,
if you're watching on the livestream,
I'm going to ask you in a moment to raise your hand.
And I want you to understand,
I'm going to ask you to get right with God,
You're going to confess your sins.
