0:01 America's desire to be 1 nation under god is quickly becoming, instead of being the United States, the divided states. And everywhere you0:13 look, division is occurring on the macro level. Presidential candidates talk about uniting the nation while they0:25 fight. We all are aware of the ongoing racial divide in our nation, the division between0:37 police and citizens, the divisions within our own homes and families, and the divisions keep growing no0:48 matter what the efforts are to seek to heal them. Jesus Christ prayed a prayer, the longest1:00 recorded prayer in the Bible that he prayed, found in Saint John chapter 17. And in that prayer, he's going to1:12 give you and me a secret. He's going to tell us something that will be life transforming in light of all the divides that we're facing1:24 today, all the schisms and the fissures that are separating us. In1:36 Jesus' discourse, he is about to be arrested. They're getting ready to come and arrest him within 24 hours and begin the process1:47 of taking him to the cross. On this day before his arrest, he gathers his disciples together and gives them final words1:59 before his departure, knowing what was to come. And as he concluded his time with them, knowing that the moment of his2:11 arrest and crucifixion was was nigh, He prayed for them. Chapter 17 of John is that prayer.2:23 But he says, I'm not only praying for you, I'm praying for all of those who will come after you who believe on me because of your word. So in other words, the prayer wasn't just for2:35 them. It was for all Christians. So Jesus' prayer is for you and me, and tucked in that prayer2:48 is a secret. I call it a secret because I don't think we've fully gotten the impact of what Jesus shares with them and with us. Because the2:59 secret he is going to disclose in his prayer to his father about his disciples is about the power of unity.3:12 Please notice with me just some of the references. For example, in verse 11, it says, at the end of the verse, that they may be 1 even as we3:23 are. In verse 21, he begins it by saying that they may all be 1. In verse 22, he ends it by saying that they3:35 may be 1 just as we are 1. In the beginning of verse 23, I in them, you in me, that they may be perfected in unity. So as you can see,3:48 Jesus Christ is torridly concerned in his prayer for his father, that his followers emulate the oneness that he possesses with4:00 his own father. And you'll see why as we go along, because if you get this secret, I call it, it really could be life transforming.4:13 Since he's concerned about unity and oneness, let's clarify what it means. Because everybody doesn't define this word the same way, but Jesus makes it clear what he means. He says, I want them4:25 to be 1 like you and I are 1. So whatever the unity is he wants us to have, it was to be a replica of the unity he himself possesses with his own4:37 father. What did this unity mean? Look at verse 4. I glorified you on earth having accomplished the work which you have given me to do.4:50 Unity has to do with oneness of purpose. I completed the work you have left me here to do. Unity is not5:02 sameness where everybody's the same. It is distinctiveness going in the same direction5:14 in order to achieve a common purpose. Unity is purpose driven, not persons driven.5:29 When the Cowboys line up, there are different positions by different people with different backgrounds, but there's only 1 goal line. So all of these5:40 differences that exist of positions of persons, they're all pointed toward that 1 direction to that 1 goal line for their differences are designed to5:52 achieve a purpose. But it's designed to accomplish a goal. So unity is purposeful. Unity is not sameness because the father is not6:04 the son, and the son is not the holy spirit. They are 3 distinct persons, but they operate on the same page because they're going after the same purpose.6:17 I've defined the unity like a pretzel. The first hole is not the second hole. The second hole is not the third hole, but they're all tied together by the same dough. Apart6:30 from sin, it's okay for folk to be different than you. God doesn't expect men to be like women or women to be like men. I don't care what the culture says.6:41 They are different by design. God doesn't expect everybody to have the same personality, be the same6:52 race, have the same interests. Apart from sin, Differences are absolutely critical, absolutely essential, and eternally7:04 determined. So when you try to change folk apart from sin, you're being more god in their life than god is. God7:17 created the differences. All of those are intended. People are not supposed to be the same. I'm sure in your family, 1 of the conflicts that regularly happens is folk trying to change you and you trying7:29 to change them. If it's related to sin, you got it right. If it's not related to sin, you're just different. But the issue of unity is not in the7:41 changing of the person, it is in the clarifying of the purpose. So if you can ever clarify that purpose and get all the persons to achieve the legitimate7:53 purpose, then you will have unity of function while still having distinction of personalities. Because Jesus says, the unity that we have is8:05 to filter down to them. When you see an orchestra before it's time for them to perform and they're warming up their instruments, there's discord.8:16 You can't make sense of what they're playing because everybody's doing their own thing. But then the conductor walks out, and he takes the stick, and he hits it a few times, calling their attention8:28 to him. And when he calls the attention and holds up the the the stick and lets it be now what do you call that stick? Baton. Right? Holds up the baton.8:42 Help her brother out. I'm tired. I needed to holds up the baton and stretches it out, and their focus is on him.8:55 All of a sudden, these independent discords are harmonized. And now you're getting a song, 1 song played by multiple instruments9:07 following the leader to achieve the same contribution of what is being played, the same score. Because now instead of, like before, doing their own thing, they're9:19 now playing a common song. What is missing in unity, whether it's personal unity, family unity, church unity, and most certainly in societal9:31 union, is the common purpose. So when everybody starts creating their own different purposes and start moving toward their own different purposes, there will automatically be conflict9:43 because we we've chosen different goal lines. We're headed toward a different place. And instead of fighting over our differences apart from sin,9:55 we should be fighting for that goal line. Jesus says, our unity is tied to the fact that I have completed the work that you've called me to do. Now in order to achieve10:07 this unity, there had to be submission to legitimate authority. I came to do the work you sent me here to do. So even though the father is equal to the son,10:19 they had an arrangement where the son would submit to the will of the father in order to accomplish the goal of the kingdom. And so it involves10:31 submission to legitimate authority as long as there's clarity of the goal. So what unity can't do is it cannot exist if there is no clarity10:42 of what we're unified about. In other words, if it's unclear where you're going, you will get there every time. You'll get there every10:54 time because nobody knows where this thing is headed. So it's unity of purpose. Now watch this. Stay with me. This will take us somewhere.11:06 In this unity of purpose in this unity of purpose, there is a key11:17 element in order for the unity of purpose to occur. Notice what Jesus says in verse 17 and 19. Sanctify them in the truth. Your word11:29 is truth. Verse 19. For their sake, I sanctified myself that they themselves also may be sanctified in truth.11:42 His goal is that there might be oneness. The road to oneness is sanctification in the truth. Let me put it another way. If there11:54 is no truth, there can be no legitimate unity. If there let me say it again. If there is no truth, you cannot arrive at legitimate unity12:06 because God only responds to the truth, which means you gotta know what the truth is. We live in a world today of12:17 probabilities, of potentialities, of preferences. We live in a world today where everybody's got an idea about everything.12:28 And we base our decisions on our own ideologies and ideas. And so you hear people talk about my12:40 truth and you talk about your truth. When you got everybody with their own truth, you got everybody with their own direction. When you got everybody with their own direction, you don't have unity. And when you don't have12:51 unity, you don't have God. Remember the biblical definition of truth. It is an absolute standard by which reality is measured. Truth13:02 lives outside of you. Let me say that again. Truth lives outside of you. We call it objective truth. It's true whether you like it or not,13:14 want it or not, accept it or not, believe it or not, buy it or not. If it's true, it's truth. We live in a world today where people operate on what they believe to be true.13:29 Because you believe it doesn't make it true. It just means it's you believe it. Because unless it sits outside of you coming from an objective13:41 standard, then you could be believing a lie thinking it's true. And if you believe a lie thinking it's true and you operate on your13:52 belief that's not the truth, it means you're operating on a lie and will be led by a lie into falsehood thinking it was the truth during the trip. And14:04 a lot of us are living our lives on a lie and wonder why things are not working out because we believed it to be true.14:14 Truth is an objective standard by which reality is measured, and he says, I want you to be sanctified with the truth. Sanctified14:25 means to be set apart for a purpose. Jesus says, I was sanctified. I sanctified myself, verse 19. I set myself apart14:37 based on the word to the truth to fulfill the purpose that God has for me. Right. That's it. God, he now says, sanctify them the same way that I'm14:49 sanctifying me, by the truth. Okay. What would you say to an onshore pilot who says, I think this is the button I ought to push to get this plane off the15:01 ground? I think I think I I'm not sure, but I it's my best guess. I don't know about you, but I'm changing planes because I don't want a pilot guessing with my life15:13 on the flight. Okay. Suppose you had a doctor who said, well, I think this is the place I ought to cut. And if it's not, don't worry. I'll cut till I find it. I think you're gonna15:25 change doctors because you want some certainty if they're gonna be splitting you open. Or let's say you go to a pharmacist, and the pharmacist says, well, there's a lot of medicine in here, and I think this will help15:35 you. I'll I'll there's a lot I could choose from, but let me just choose something. And he comes up with his best guess about your medicine. You you're gonna go to another pharmacy. You will talk to another pharmacist15:47 because when your life is at stake. You don't want folk guessing with your life. God doesn't want you guessing with your life.15:58 Truth takes the guesswork out of life because you're operating on an absolute standard that sits outside of you.16:10 Jesus made a powerful statement in John 8. Remember, verse 31, 32, right in there. He says, and we all quote it, and you shall know the truth and the truth shall set you16:22 free. Let's let's talk about that for a moment because it's about truth. And you shall know the truth and the truth shall set you free. There's a whole bunch in there. Number 1,16:34 he says truth exists. You shall know it. Secondly, he says the truth that exists, you gotta know it before it can free you.16:46 So just because it's there doesn't mean you have it. Truth already exists, but you shall know it. So if you don't know the truth, you16:58 can't be freed by it, which means if you've been duped by a lie, you will continually be a slave because you won't be free. He says the truth,17:11 once you know it and he goes on to say, and abide in it, will liberate you. Well, what does that mean? If you're not liberated, either you don't know the truth17:23 or you're not operating with the truth because he says the truth that you know will liberate you. So you know why a lot of us are in bondage? Because because we're living on a lie believing it's the truth.17:36 Because he says the truth that you know will liberate you. So if you're being held hostage illegitimately, the truth hadn't penetrated yet. Either because you don't17:47 know what it is or you're not operating by it, so you're being held hostage to something you should have been liberated from years ago. Because truth has liberating power.18:01 Let me put it in everyday language. Truth is God's view on any subject matter. If you wanna just just be raw with it, truth is God's view on any subject18:13 matter. Or as the scripture says, let God be true and every man a liar. So if you disagree with God, guess what God just called you? He's called you a18:25 liar. If your mama disagrees with God, guess what God played the dozens with on your mama? Your mama is a liar. If your partners disagree with God, guess what God18:37 just said about your posse? They're liars. If the government disagrees with God, guess what God said? You're a liar.18:50 Doesn't matter how many people believe it. Doesn't matter how many people vote for it. Doesn't matter how many people feel it. Doesn't matter how many people think about it. Once it disagrees with God, personally,19:02 as a family, as a church, or in society, God calling all of them liars. And if you are a liar,19:15 you're operating on the truth. And if you're not operating on the truth, you can't be set free. And you can't be set free because you can't be unified. Let me tell you something else about the truth.19:29 The truth is bigger than the facts. You can have the facts and still not know the truth. Wow.19:42 See, you the data may be 100 percent correct, and you still not know the truth. Let's say I got a headache. I got a splitting headache. My head is killing me. My head is killing me. I'm just19:54 hurting so bad. So because my head is killing me, I want to I'm gonna go up to Walgreens, and I'm gonna get me some Tylenol PM because my head is hurting so bad, and I just can't function with this headache. I make my20:05 way up and I go get my Tylenol PM and I start popping pills because I got a fact. The fact is my head hurts. I know if my head hurts and I know if it's a fact that my head hurts. So because my head is hurting and I know20:16 that my, it's a fact that my head is hurting, I'm going to address it. I go to Walgreens, I get my Tylenol extra strength and I get it, I start taking it. Oh, but what do you know? My head's still hurting.20:29 My head's still hurting. The Tylenol didn't solve my problem. I called the doctor the next day. He says, come in. I tell him my problem. I've tried everything. And then he does a scan of my brain and discovers I have a20:41 tumor. Oh, I had the fact. My head was hurting. But because I didn't know the truth, I went to Walgreens. If I would've20:53 known the truth, I would've gone to the doctor first. Because if I would've known it was a tumor, I wouldn't go to Walgreens. I went to Walgreens because I was operating on a fact without knowing the truth. A lot of21:04 folk operate on the fact, and the fact is factual if it's a real fact. But that does not mean it's the truth because the truth is the root that is responsible for the21:16 facts. So you can have the facts, but with knowledge of the truth, we got that's why the bible says folk are ever learning and never coming into the knowledge of the truth. Many of you and us with21:28 edumication. See, because that that's the problem. That that is the 1 problem with school. School is absolutely critical. School is, on some level, is absolutely21:39 necessary. But the problem with school is they can teach you the facts and not get around to the truth. That's why the Bible says the knowledge of God is the foundation of21:51 wisdom. The fear of God is the foundation of knowledge and wisdom. Why? Because if you start with God, you start with the truth so you know how to interpret the facts. In fact, you'd find out then whether22:03 it is a fact. So it's God's view of a matter. It's like the old Negro empire, Bill Clem. Bill Clem was a big husky umpire in the old Negro league before there was integration in baseball, and it was the ninth22:15 inning. And the team was 1 score down, and they had a runner on third base. And so they hit a ground ball, and the run from third base was coming in to tie the game. He threw it to the catcher. The guy22:26 slid. The catcher put the the mitt down to tag him, and dust flew everywhere because it was it was real dusty, and dust flew everywhere. You could hardly see. 1 team came out and said, he's22:38 safe. He's safe. The other team came out and said, he's out. He's out. Safe. Out. Safe. Out. Safe. Out. Bill Clem took off his zumbai mask and threw it down and22:49 said, everybody shut up. He said, because it ain't nothing till I call it. All y'all doing is making a lot of noise because it means nothing until I say what it23:01 is. We got Republicans hollering over here and Democrats hollering over here, blacks hollering over here, whites hollering over here. We got policemen hollering over here, citizens hollering over here, and God is saying,23:13 shut up. It ain't nothing till I call you. Because when you start with the truth, you save23:25 time. You save fights. You save arguments because you're starting with the root and not discussing the fruit. The guy was in the in the ship, and the ship23:36 was foggy out, and he saw a light coming at him. And he was an admiral. He said he sent the message, go 5 degrees north. We're gonna collide.23:48 The voice came back, no. You go 5 degrees south. He said, I'm an admiral in the United States Navy, and I said, go 5 degrees north.24:01 Voice came back, absolutely not. You go 5 degrees south. I'm the lighthouse.24:13 God's not negotiating his truth just because we wanna change the direction. If it's foggy in your life, you better agree with what he says and not24:25 what you think, feel, and the like. So his goal is unity, but God only operates24:37 with truth that you know if, in fact, you want to see him manifest himself to you. Now watch this.24:50 He gives a warning because he knows that this unity can be interrupted. And so he says, verse 14,25:02 I have given them your word, and the world has hated them because they are not of the world even as I am not of the world. Verse25:14 16, they are not of the world even as I am not of the world. He knows that there is a system at work25:26 to keep you from the truth, and that system is called the world. The world is defined as that system headed by Satan that leaves God25:38 out. It is that system orchestrated by the devil, say with me here, that wants to get God meaningfully out of the conversation without25:50 getting rid of God's name. Satan doesn't mind God's name as long as it's not God's truth. So he's a he's a fan of religion.26:02 Keep god's name. Use them for invocations, benedictions, go to church, all that stuff, but don't let his truth be the determiner. You remember Adam and Eve? God gave him a word.26:14 Watch this now. The last verse of chapter 2 says, the man shall leave his father, the mother cleave his wife, and the 2 shall become 1. 0, 1. That's the word 1. Unity. They're gonna be unified.26:26 They're gonna live happily ever after. The next verse, chapter 3 verse 1, after the last verse of chapter 2,26:37 slick shows up in the garden. Right. The devil slithers his way in and says, hath God sent? That's what he said. The first conversation between a human being and the26:49 devil was about God. That's right. Hath God said. And so he twisted the word of God so that the oneness that was agreed upon a verse earlier27:00 destroys the garden, the whole home, destroys the relationship, destroys the kids, wind up destroying the whole world because the truth got co opted27:13 by the devil. Because the devil has a kingdom because he knows. He knows something. He knows something. Let me tell you what he knows. He27:24 knows if he can keep you from the truth, he can break up the unity. And if he can break up the unity, he'll keep God away because God cannot operate in disunity. That's27:36 why Romans chapter 16 verse 17 and 18 says, mark them out who cause disunity in the church, and if necessary, remove them. Illegitimate27:48 disunity, because some things are legitimate disunity. But illegitimate disunity, he says, folk will go around gossiping and creating mess and creating factions in the church. Point them27:59 out and deal with them because you will lose god if you keep them. See, it's a it's a whole it's a whole deal28:11 here because what he is saying to you and me is that disunity comes because of the absence of God, and the absence of God will always be with the loss of truth because28:22 God can't function in a lie. The bible says the devil is a liar, and then it says he's the father of lies. Now you know what a father is. It's folk that got children. So28:36 he a born liar, and he got offsprings. And some of you know what that's like because you looked at your family members and said, you ain't nothing but a liar. So28:48 Satan is after removing it, and it's it's a kingdom issue because in Matthew chapter 12 verses 25 to 29, Jesus says, a kingdom divided against29:00 itself cannot stand. What? He says, if Satan cast out Satan, then Satan can't be strong. He goes on and he says, there's a city divided against itself,29:12 and watch this, and a home divided against itself, he says. So if I was the devil and I wanted to keep God out of your home, your church, and your country, then what29:24 I'm going to do is I'm going to create illegitimate disunity. I'm gonna create disunity because I wanna disrupt the kingdom. And a29:35 kingdom divided against itself cannot stand. So here's what you need to know. A lot of that stuff you're fighting about? You remember Conrad29:47 Doberla and the beer commercial a number of years ago? He was in the football stand, and he go around to 1 group, and he say, taste great. And he go over here and say, let's fill it. Taste29:59 great. Let's fill it. Now he get the folks shouting at each other. Taste great. Let's fill it. Taste great. Let's fill it. Now the folk fighting, And he laugh and walking off because he didn't started mess.30:11 That's what the devil does. Have you ever wondered if if you're married, you have a good friend, how did we wind up wanting a divorce30:22 because of how you cooked? You how we wind up in a fist fight? How we wind up you throwing my clothes out when we were just talking about, you know, which30:34 TV show we like. How did we get there? Because once the devil got an opportunity on a little thing, he fed that thing. He fed that thing. He fed that thing. And 1 thing became another30:46 thing, and another thing became another thing until you wind up not even knowing how this argument got started. Because that's what he's after. He's after getting God30:58 out because first Peter 3 7 says, when you and your maid are out of sync, tell the husband don't pray. God won't listen. So in order to keep God out of your house, he keeps you31:10 in conflict so there is no unity, so God doesn't feel comfortable, so the devil can sow seeds and make a little thing a huge thing. Let me tell you how good the devil is at31:21 disunity. He can create you disunifying or with yourself. Have you ever been in conflict with you? You know, you you31:33 in conflict with you. You don't know which you you talking to. And if you don't know which you you talking to, you know you're gonna confuse everybody else.31:45 So so you split between, oh, yeah. I should do that, but am I gonna do this? Am I gonna should I do that? You know? He gets you fighting with you because he can draw us from the truth. And31:56 so this world system you know, I I got a problem. I got a problem. You you have this problem too many of you. On my lawn, because I got ants wanting to set up their own kingdom. Ant32:08 hill. And these are not normal ants. These are fire ants. And they will let you know if you you've touched their premises. Okay? You ever been stung by fire ant a bunch of fire ants? They will light you up.32:20 You know why they're building that kingdom? Because they're serving their queen. See, right down in that fire, they got a queen, and that queen has called her workers to serve her kingdom. And when that queen calls her32:30 workers to serve their kingdom, they build up a castle in your kingdom called Yolanda. They wanna disrupt your lawn. And they they keep growing and they growing and the mound gets bigger and32:42 bigger because they want to disrupt the beauty of your lawn with their kingdom. Satan wants to build his kingdom in your life, in your home, in the church, and in the culture,32:54 and he builds it, and he gathers his folk there in a lot. So I have very little sympathy. I wanna get rid of the mound. I wanna get rid of the mound because it will continue to33:06 grow if I don't. It'll continue to expand. And so Satan wants to build a kingdom so that his kingdom expands so that let me let me tell you33:18 big this unity thing is. Genesis 11 1 to 9, tower of Babel. It says all the world spoke with 1 voice. They were unified. They came up with 1 plan to build33:30 a civilization. With 1 religion, they build a ziggurat, that's a tower, and they said this tower is gonna take us all the way to heaven, humanism. We're get to heaven by man. We don't need God.33:42 We just need men to come together and sing Kumbaya and, you know, hold hands and all that, and we're gonna just build a civilization. And then it says, and33:54 god came down. So here's a great lesson right there. No matter how high you get, god still got to come down because you ain't going but so high without it. K? So34:06 don't think any of us, me, you, us, is we all that. Because no matter what what degrees you have, what title you have, what money you have, what car you drive, what home you live, God still got to come down. You ain't34:17 you ain't but so much. So he comes down to see what the sons of men have built. And when God sees that they want to build a34:28 civilization without him, he says, let us, because he's talking to the Trinity, he says, let us divide this thing.34:39 We're gonna split this thing up. And he says, the reason we're gonna divide it is if we let them stay unified, there's nothing that they will not be able to pull off on earth34:51 because of the power of unity. So in order to keep them on earth from thinking more of themselves than they ought to think, we're gonna mess this thing up.35:03 We're gonna confuse their languages so that they won't know what each other's talking about. You know? And what's interesting, they used the technology of the day to build a civilization. They got all this stuff going35:13 on. You know, we got we got real technology today. And look look at the evil this technology is producing in the midst of all of its benefits. And there's there's a technology of the day, and God said, oh, we we gonna we35:24 gonna deal with that technology. Okay. We go we go we go hack it. We go hack that technology. That's what we're gonna do. We're gonna go right in there, split up35:36 the system, and nobody could talk to nobody, and they were confused because God will not let unity last that leaves him out. K? You leave God out, and you won't be35:48 unified, but for so long, something gonna happen. Because to try to have legitimate unity that's not based on God and his truth, he will not allow.36:00 He rejects unity apart from him. But now the good news. Remember, unity is oneness of purpose. It is establishing a common36:11 goal that's legitimate, that the differences are pointing to, that invites God into its midst. Oh, and then something36:23 spectacular will occur. He says, in verse 23, I in them and you in me, that they may be perfected in unity, get36:35 better at it, so that the world may know that you sent me and love them even as you have loved me. Woah. Wait. Wait. Wait. He36:47 says, when you have legitimate unity as defined biblically, the world will see something it has not seen. The world will36:59 see you love them like you loved me. That's a powerful statement. To love is to compassionately and righteously37:11 seek the well-being of another. He says, if you will be a perfected in unity, God will manifest his commitment to you.37:23 Let me say that again. Where there is unity, you get to see God show up. Yes.
