I'm going to tell you, Jesus never wrote a book,
but He said someone would.
And He said, "As long as the sun was
in the sky and the moon went around the earth
that His word would not leave the mainstream of the world."
I'm going to say it, "heaven and earth will pass away,
but My Word will not pass away". [Matthew 24:35]
I'm not having enough fun yet.
"Heaven and earth will pass away,
but My Word will not pass away."
It is still the number one best seller in the world.
That is why there is nothing more despicable
than a modern Christian preacher
who doubts the inerrancy of the Bible.
That's why you are a disgusting traitor to us.
In fact, it was Matthew Henry said
in his commentary, Matthew 24,
"That one traitor inside of the barracks is worse
than a thousand prosecutors on the outside.
And I'm going to call you out.
You're a pastor, you're a minister,
and you told people that the Bible is not the Word of God.
Shame on you!
There's not even words for the shame that's on you
Having said all of this, on this important night,
the banquet,
belongs to the marginalized, the disenfranchised.
This is the Word of God.
You have felt like life passed you by,
everybody else got invited to the main events, but not you.
And in this story, there's a romance because
it's the leftovers, the forsaken.
Those who are not loved, not n, never have had a shot
at what everybody calls success,
that were first to sit at a table and eat something
that the wealthy were deprived of.
Now, is that an attack on the wealthy?
Not in any way, shape, or form, because some
of the poorest people I know have money
and it is a yawning poverty.
And this city reeks with it.
I'm from California.
I grew up in San Francisco.
I know what hollow wealth looks like, and it's this madness.
I can't come to Christ because of this... this thing.
So one day I got on a jet
and I was invited to sit in first class.
And since I'd recently discovered word of faith,
I looked at the flight attendant and said, "I receive it."
And I sat next to a drunk man.
Oh, he was drunk.
And he was all lit up.
And he started telling me how rich he was.
And the Lord said, shut your mouth.
Don't say a word.
He said, "I own a computer company in Silicon Valley.
I invented a certain chip."
He goes, "I'm rich, I'm wealthy,
I take over an entire huge hotel
in Hong Kong and in in Honolulu and bring in my buddies.
And we party together."
And he went on and on and I'm sitting there
and he's looking at me and he asked me, what do you do?
The Lord said, be quiet.
I just nodded.
And he went on and on and on.
I said, listen, "I can tell
that you're not wealthy like I am.
You're an upgrade."
And I looked at him and I knew he was drunk.
And I got to tell you, I'm Latin and I'm German.
So the Latino side of me said, "Kill him."
And the German side said,
"What is the matter with you?
Control your emotions,
so you can think of ways to kill him."
Fortunately, the Holy Spirit won.
He said, "You want to know what I do?"
I said a chief spokesman for the richest Jew in the world.
Somebody help me right there.
That's who I am.
And I said, "We own planets.
We beat Elon into space."
His eyes got big.
Then he said, "You're a preacher, aren't you?"
I said, "I am."
Then I got that look, that famous look of someone
that thinks their banquet is better than mine.
And he kept talking and God said, "Keep your mouth shut."
He said, "Let me tell you about me.
I have two sons paid their way through Stanford University.
On their graduation day,
I bought them each a Ferrari.
They jumped in, drove off.
I haven't seen them in two years."
Said, "My wife that gave me those two boys.
We were married 25 years.
Then I got rich and I replaced her with the trophy wife."
And he said, "Let me tell you about my wife.
She's sleeping with the tennis pro at our country club."
And his eyes started getting wet.
And God said, "Keep your mouth shut."
And he said, "I can tell you don't have a lot of money."
Kept saying that.
I'm busy asking God for a raise.
I'm trying to figure out what it was about me.
And then he keeps talking
and he keeps talking, and he keeps talking.
And he said, "You know, I look at you.
You don't have what I have."
I said, "That's the third time you've said that."
He said, "But you've got something I don't have.
You've got something I don't have.
I would to God that those of you
out in this house would say the same thing,
that you would sit in your chair and say,
