00:00:00.762 --> 00:00:07.459
If you watch anyone close enough, you're going to find a contradiction which is going to undo and unpack.
00:00:07.459 --> 00:00:31.367
But what the new convert needs to understand and what Moses needs to understand and we will read that he did understand that is that there is grace, that your perfection is actually made in you striving for perfection, it's in the progress of.
00:00:31.367 --> 00:00:41.015
So when I listen to people do the interview and they try to compare Christianity as a whole with the performance of people, it's like no, you're missing it.
00:00:42.220 --> 00:00:47.453
Welcome to the Call by God podcast with Adney Godin and myself, nixon Sylvain.
00:00:47.453 --> 00:00:54.414
This show is about dialogues of biblical characters and testimonies of Christians who submitted to the will of God.
00:00:54.414 --> 00:01:00.612
Each week we bring on one guest so that they can share their story of how they were called by God.
00:01:00.612 --> 00:01:03.728
I hope this show inspires you.
00:01:03.728 --> 00:01:09.084

Enjoy Hello and welcome world to the Call by God podcast.
00:01:11.612 --> 00:01:17.231
I'm yours truly brother Nick, and I'm here with my co-host, sister Adni Godin, and we have a special guest by the name of brother Ray Gosa.
00:01:17.231 --> 00:01:20.141
He's not even a special guest, he's a friend to the show.
00:01:20.141 --> 00:01:22.688
How y'all doing on this blessed day?
00:01:22.688 --> 00:01:24.031
I'm blessed, blessed.
00:01:24.031 --> 00:01:24.572
How are you, nick?
00:01:24.572 --> 00:01:25.493
I'm blessed.
00:01:25.493 --> 00:01:26.802
I'm blessed, adni, why you got that?
00:01:26.802 --> 00:01:27.927
Look on your face?
00:01:28.460 --> 00:01:30.106
Because I was waiting for him to say something.
00:01:30.106 --> 00:01:32.024
I'm doing amazing.
00:01:32.024 --> 00:01:33.468
Y'all Just keep me in prayer.
00:01:33.468 --> 00:01:37.984
I'm going to a funeral Once we're done.
00:01:37.984 --> 00:01:40.070
This lady lost her only child.
00:01:40.070 --> 00:01:41.180
She's not a member of the body.
00:01:41.200 --> 00:01:41.721
Oh no.
00:01:41.822 --> 00:01:48.087
So the Lord laid it on my heart Go, show her what you know a child of God does.
00:01:48.087 --> 00:01:50.468
I may not know you, but I'm here to encourage you.
00:01:50.468 --> 00:01:55.573
Type situation, and then we're going to watch the play right afterwards.
00:01:55.573 --> 00:02:00.701
Right, they recorded the play I was in, so oh, really.
00:02:00.701 --> 00:02:04.046
Yeah, I'm going to go see the play.
00:02:04.046 --> 00:02:06.370
Just sit down and just watch.
00:02:07.210 --> 00:02:12.561
Ray, did you know that Adney played in this Jesus play Like at Bold the?
00:02:12.580 --> 00:02:13.263
Christ, Church of Christ.
00:02:13.263 --> 00:02:16.050
I mean, and here you're calling me the special guest.
00:02:16.050 --> 00:02:20.611
I mean I just want her to sign one of my double chins, that's it and we'll be good.
00:02:20.611 --> 00:02:28.429
And for those that are listening, that was a pre-recorded joke Not to be taken out of context in any sort of way.
00:02:28.429 --> 00:02:29.705
It's a family show.
00:02:29.705 --> 00:02:32.854
But you know you should step it up, Ray.
00:02:32.854 --> 00:02:33.560
You subbed the dust.
00:02:33.560 --> 00:02:43.687
So yeah, special guest Adney, you know she is with Jesus, literally, and talking about Jesus, and it's great.
00:02:43.687 --> 00:02:44.823
I have nothing more to say.
00:02:44.823 --> 00:02:52.147
All right, Nick, come on, You're going to have to steer this ship because we're going to start just floating off into the third heaven here.
00:02:54.183 --> 00:02:55.710
Yeah, so this is a fellowship.
00:02:55.710 --> 00:03:01.606
The last time we were on here, we discussed Aaron, and that's what this episode is about.
00:03:01.606 --> 00:03:02.430
It's about Aaron.
00:03:02.430 --> 00:03:10.330
We discussed how Aaron he is the siblings of Miriam and Moses, and we also talked about how Aaron was called.
00:03:10.330 --> 00:03:19.110
You know, moses was talking to God, having a back and forth conversation with God, and God told Moses hey, you know what about your brother Aaron?
00:03:19.110 --> 00:03:32.412
So Aaron was called into ministry and he was Moses'-hand man, not only a sibling, but his right-hand man, and both of them went before Pharaoh and Aaron was the spokesperson.
00:03:32.412 --> 00:03:35.906
He was the spokesperson, both he and Moses.
00:03:35.906 --> 00:03:38.570
And then, of course, moses was.
00:03:38.591 --> 00:03:57.776
So when the children of God got delivered, they was wandering in the wilderness and by the mountain and Moses had, you know, had a discussion, went up to the mountain and was having a dialogue with God, and then they doing miraculous things and, of course, the children of Israel decided that they wanted to build a calf.
00:03:57.776 --> 00:04:08.614
We talked about this on part one, because Aaron, the leader, aaron, was in their presence and the people told them hey, let's build the cap.
00:04:08.614 --> 00:04:28.416
And we're going to say that these are the gods that delivered us out of the hand of Pharaoh in Egypt and Exodus 32, verse 19 and 22.
00:04:28.416 --> 00:04:34.673
This is where Moses came down and Moses is like what in the world is going on?
00:04:34.673 --> 00:04:39.225
So, adney, if you will, can you go ahead and read it, and then we're just going to have a dialogue.
00:04:39.225 --> 00:04:40.425
What happened, right?
00:04:40.425 --> 00:05:05.841
I'm sure the people want to know, like what happened after Aaron and the people built the golden calf and burned it.
00:05:05.860 --> 00:05:07.624
Then he ground it into powder, threw it into the water and forced the people to drink it.
00:05:07.624 --> 00:05:14.925
Finally, he turned to Aaron and demanded what did these people do to make you bring such terrible sin upon them?
00:05:14.925 --> 00:05:17.290
Don't get upset, my Lord.
00:05:17.290 --> 00:05:21.944
Hold on, don't get upset, my Lord.
00:05:21.944 --> 00:05:25.992
Aaron replied you yourself know how evil these people are.
00:05:25.992 --> 00:05:29.589
They said to me make us gods who will lead us.
00:05:29.589 --> 00:05:35.446
We don't know what happened to this fellow Moses who brought us here from the land of Egypt.
00:05:35.446 --> 00:05:39.694
So I told them whoever has gold jewelry, take it off.
00:05:39.694 --> 00:05:44.552
When they brought it to me, I simply threw it into the fire, and out came this calf.
00:05:44.552 --> 00:05:46.540
When they brought it to me, I simply threw it into the fire and out came this calf.
00:05:46.540 --> 00:05:53.365
And Moses saw that Aaron had let the people get completely out of control, much to the amusement of their enemies.
00:05:53.365 --> 00:06:01.790
So he stood at the entrance of the camp and shouted all of you who are on the Lord's side, come here and join me.
00:06:01.790 --> 00:06:04.552
And all the Levites gathered around him.
00:06:05.471 --> 00:06:15.017
Amen, amen and Ray, what are your thoughts on some of the things that Aaron did when Moses confronted Aaron?
00:06:19.880 --> 00:06:24.696
You know, there's, of course, always a lot to unpack.
00:06:24.696 --> 00:06:29.725
I mean being, last time we spoke it was like all right, well, what were we?
00:06:29.725 --> 00:06:30.406
What was people supposed to do?
00:06:30.406 --> 00:06:31.230
Like how would we be any different?
00:06:31.230 --> 00:06:35.528
How long will we be able to stay in idle, not knowing what's going on?
00:06:35.528 --> 00:06:45.560
We're like we're in the woods, like it's turned into a Blair witch project, which is an old movie reference, and now it's like all right, so we have to do something right, or do we just sit here?
00:06:45.560 --> 00:06:48.766
You know, does Moses need help?
00:06:48.766 --> 00:06:49.187
We don't know.
00:06:49.206 --> 00:06:56.346
So they go back to their old ways, and it's so important.
00:06:56.346 --> 00:07:07.692
What's coming to me is that, especially let's take it from a new convert perspective the new convert has not been able to walk with God yet.
00:07:07.692 --> 00:07:08.785
They don't know what that looks like.
00:07:08.785 --> 00:07:14.904
So all they have is just their old tendencies, all they have and all they know.
00:07:14.904 --> 00:07:22.850
Maybe it's in good faith, Maybe it's coming from a good place, it's just wrongly utilized.
00:07:22.850 --> 00:07:38.605
It's like that energy that was for your previous life and now that you've come out of Pharaoh's house, you've gone through the water and now, here you are, don't stand idly by.
00:07:38.605 --> 00:07:59.653
So, from a ministerial standpoint, we, as the church, we have to really understand that there are babes in Christ for a reason and they will easily be led astray because they can find the good in the old ways, even though it is extremely opposed to their new way of life.
00:07:59.653 --> 00:08:10.855
So I believe number one this is a call for assignment of the mature Christian to take the young babes under their arms and guide them.
00:08:11.879 --> 00:08:22.480
Understand that some people they don't know what to do on Friday night after becoming saved If there's nothing going on at the church like what do you do what you usually do?
00:08:22.480 --> 00:08:24.802
What do you do what you usually do?
00:08:24.802 --> 00:08:25.882
They don't know.
00:08:25.882 --> 00:08:33.525
Are there better radio stations or things to watch or people to be around after becoming saved?
00:08:33.525 --> 00:08:41.269
Because if not, that golden calf is going to just miraculously show up out of nowhere and you're not even going to know how you did it.
00:08:41.269 --> 00:09:02.077
And this is also the danger of the parts of tradition, because you can be hardwired for some things and there needs to be some sort of familiarity with a protocol and what tradition will do is you won't even question it.
00:09:02.077 --> 00:09:06.884
You're just like, well, of course we're going to do this, like, of course I'm still going to.
00:09:06.884 --> 00:09:19.245
You know, go on certain websites and I'm just looking and and it's like, oh, I'm just going to go over a friend's house, so yeah, I know it's a little late, but and then, like oops, I slipped.
00:09:19.245 --> 00:09:20.167
And well, okay, yeah, she fell in.
00:09:20.167 --> 00:09:23.030
Okay, yeah, the, the calf just raised all by itself.
00:09:23.030 --> 00:09:25.775
I had nothing to do with that.
00:09:26.200 --> 00:09:32.246
You know how these people are, aka, you know what world we live in, you know what society is like.
00:09:32.246 --> 00:09:42.034
So it's one thing to give Aaron a pass and it's another thing to say, well, moses, what were your instructions?
00:09:42.034 --> 00:09:46.361
Now, granted, maybe you didn't have instructions because you don't know what's going on.
00:09:46.361 --> 00:10:01.748
But at the same time, it's like there has to be a balance, because I believe that sometimes the church does a lot of damage in the way they deal with people, especially when found in error or, in this case, found with Aaron.
00:10:01.748 --> 00:10:05.274
We can discourage them.
00:10:05.919 --> 00:10:13.126
Now, at this point in time in the scriptures yeah, the people had a different type of fabric about them they can hear a hard message.
00:10:13.126 --> 00:10:28.418
We, on the other hand, this day, we are increasingly becoming more sensitive to how things are being put and, yes, truth and love, but that needs to have its evolution.
00:10:28.418 --> 00:10:41.974
That's saying that we start to tolerate, to the point of conforming and compromising our position, but having a special way of communicating effectively.
00:10:41.974 --> 00:10:45.803
Now here we see in Scripture that, yeah, the people did receive it.
00:10:45.803 --> 00:10:47.187
It's like well, what else are you going to do?
00:10:47.187 --> 00:10:51.263
You made us drink our own, you know altar.
00:10:51.263 --> 00:10:53.187
So, yeah, that's not happening.
00:10:53.187 --> 00:11:01.639
But had there been other choices, how many would have, you know, chosen the side of God, which is the challenge that we are faced with.
00:11:02.360 --> 00:11:12.801
I've seen so many times where good people were ran away by religious people and, honestly, I was one of them.
00:11:12.801 --> 00:11:28.721
Now, I may not have been one-on-one with them, but the way I would go about teaching it's like well, listen, can you be skilled enough to land with that person while also giving the meat to the more seasoned person?
00:11:28.721 --> 00:11:39.599
So here we're seeing a I guess you can call it a HR problem, human resources issue.
00:11:39.599 --> 00:11:43.802
Like, how do you deal with effective discipline?
00:11:43.802 --> 00:11:46.384
Oh, it can be harsh and you can get your point across.
00:11:46.384 --> 00:11:57.450
But was it effective here?
00:11:57.450 --> 00:12:02.115
Yeah, I mean it was, but for us we got to make sure that we don't come unglued and just throw down the whole tablet.
00:12:02.215 --> 00:12:04.035
You know, did Moses go overboard with destroying the calf?
00:12:04.035 --> 00:12:06.379
You know grinding up and in the water and making the people drink it.
00:12:06.379 --> 00:12:19.892
I mean, I mean I don't know, I don't know, like maybe I'm not sure that's what God told him or that's just how Moses gets when he gets in his bag, like when he gets mad.
00:12:19.892 --> 00:12:25.322
You go, you don't make you do all of that, but I think that's something to take away from just this part of it.
00:12:25.322 --> 00:12:31.291
But you also see that Aaron blames the people.
00:12:31.291 --> 00:12:43.298
He doesn't take any responsibility, which is scary, because it's kind of a narcissistic tendency to say, oh well, look what they made me do.
00:12:43.298 --> 00:12:47.081
And you know, these are the same people that will say, oh, you make me mad.
00:12:47.081 --> 00:12:51.826
See you mad, you can become mad.
00:12:51.826 --> 00:13:07.232
You can choose to be mad after what they say, or you can govern yourself and say listen, society does not dictate a person's actions.
00:13:07.253 --> 00:13:08.695
I heard this quote and I'll never forget it.
00:13:08.695 --> 00:13:27.971
I forgot who said it, but it was something like said it, but it was something like in our final day, we will not be judged on what we believe you, you will be judged on what you knew.
00:13:27.971 --> 00:13:28.513
Aaron, what did you know?
00:13:28.513 --> 00:13:29.553
I know that's what you believe, but you knew better.
00:13:29.553 --> 00:13:31.014
So that's that's where you'll be judged.
00:13:31.014 --> 00:13:31.936
So that's where you'll be judged.
00:13:31.956 --> 00:13:42.666
I'm loving that you brought it in this angle, because one thing we have to realize as Christians we're going to have new converts.
00:13:42.666 --> 00:13:57.325
They do have a past and in them having a past, we have to start teaching them to release the past, to walk in the newness of life.
00:13:57.325 --> 00:14:08.192
That's called having a relationship right.
00:14:08.192 --> 00:14:11.057
We, in the body, we've baptized without establishing relationship.
00:14:11.057 --> 00:14:14.604
You're baptizing people and you don't even know who they are.
00:14:14.604 --> 00:14:16.553
They don't even know who you are.
00:14:16.553 --> 00:14:20.525
I'm going to take us to New Testament.
00:14:20.525 --> 00:14:32.221
Our Lord and Savior had relationship with people and in him having a relationship with him, they became his disciples, became his disciples.
00:14:32.221 --> 00:14:34.743
That's the pattern that we have to have today.
00:14:34.743 --> 00:14:45.913
So, moses, these people, whether we believe it or not, they didn't know Moses.
00:14:45.913 --> 00:14:46.212
Think about it.
00:14:46.212 --> 00:14:52.081
They said this fellow, moses, this fellow like I don't know that man, but they knew Aaron.
00:14:52.081 --> 00:14:54.846
Aaron knows their past.
00:14:54.846 --> 00:15:03.590
Aaron knows where they come from, because Aaron was a part of that group, hence why it was so easy for him to say to them give me your earrings.
00:15:03.590 --> 00:15:07.721
And here comes this golden calf, because that's what they're accustomed to.
00:15:09.610 --> 00:15:18.975
If you're shackled to bondage, you're going to always remain shackled to bondage Once you become free.
00:15:18.975 --> 00:15:20.941
You have to know that you are free.
00:15:20.941 --> 00:15:26.981
If you don't know that you're free, you're going to continue operating in the shackles.
00:15:26.981 --> 00:15:36.419
Hence Juneteenth Right, we have a set of people and I tell people all the time American history is not Adney's history.
00:15:36.419 --> 00:15:38.183
Adney's history is Haitian history.
00:15:38.183 --> 00:15:44.159
But when I read about, you know how people were free.
00:15:44.159 --> 00:15:46.124
But people in Texas didn't even know it was free.
00:15:46.124 --> 00:15:46.610
They were still.
00:15:46.610 --> 00:15:48.296
They were still enslaved.
00:15:48.296 --> 00:15:53.389
These people were still enslaved to the gods of the Egyptians.
00:15:53.389 --> 00:15:55.452
These people were still enslaved to the gods of the Egyptians.
00:15:55.452 --> 00:16:02.081
So, because they were still enslaved to the gods of the Egyptians and they had no relationship with Moses, make us God.
00:16:02.081 --> 00:16:03.982
They saw everything that God did.
00:16:03.982 --> 00:16:05.946
They saw it.
00:16:05.946 --> 00:16:08.412
They saw it hands down.
00:16:08.412 --> 00:16:12.142
They saw how God told them to put the blood and the death angel pass.
00:16:12.142 --> 00:16:14.379
They saw the frogs.
00:16:14.379 --> 00:16:16.611
They saw the gnat.
00:16:16.611 --> 00:16:18.655
They saw all of that, all of those wonders.
00:16:18.655 --> 00:16:29.182
But again, if you don't know that you're free, you're going to remain in bondage, you're going to remain shackled to Egypt.
00:16:29.182 --> 00:16:32.519
And they did not realize that they were free.
00:16:32.519 --> 00:16:38.077
And I love how you said that Aaron didn't take responsibility.
00:16:38.077 --> 00:16:42.899
Out of everyone, aaron should have been, because half the stuff was done by him.
00:16:42.899 --> 00:16:49.057
He was the mouthpiece, like God used you to talk, since your brother say he couldn't do it.
00:16:49.057 --> 00:16:50.013
So how you.
00:16:50.013 --> 00:16:58.736
If anybody had a relationship with Moses, it should have been you saying wait a minute, hold up, he, he's talking to God.
00:16:58.736 --> 00:16:59.658
Let's be patient.
00:16:59.658 --> 00:17:05.305
But again, if you don't recognize that you're free, you're going to remain in bondage.
00:17:05.305 --> 00:17:14.134
Let's bring it to modern day.
00:17:14.153 --> 00:17:15.703
When we are going out to save souls, we have to establish relationship.
00:17:15.703 --> 00:17:22.143
We have to teach them Jesus, because it's not about teaching them the church, it's about teaching them Christ and him crucified.
00:17:22.143 --> 00:17:35.226
It's about getting them into a relationship with Christ before we dip them in the water, because what happens is oh my goodness, I don't have to live this lifestyle.
00:17:35.226 --> 00:17:45.884
I may struggle with it, but because I love God, I don't have to be in bondage to it, and that's what we have to get to y'all.
00:17:45.884 --> 00:17:49.594
And I'm learning this more now than ever.
00:17:49.594 --> 00:17:51.336
I was taught church.
00:17:51.336 --> 00:17:53.598
Now I'm learning.
00:17:53.598 --> 00:17:55.882
I am part of the church.
00:17:55.882 --> 00:18:10.711
I'm a flawed individual, I sin, but learning Jesus and him crucified and how I have to let this mind be in me, which was also in Christ Jesus.
00:18:10.711 --> 00:18:17.912
They didn't have the mind of God, so did we expect anything less from the children of Israel.
00:18:17.912 --> 00:18:25.765
No, because, if we're honest, many of us have been enslaved to our path.
00:18:25.765 --> 00:18:27.811
Some of us we've been freed.
00:18:27.811 --> 00:18:31.116
I'm just saying.
00:18:32.358 --> 00:18:34.101
Amen, amen, yeah.
00:18:34.101 --> 00:18:37.286
Yeah, both of you guys brought us some really great points.
00:18:37.286 --> 00:18:56.162
But what I want to say, just to add on to what y'all said I like how y'all brought up the new converts thing, but for me it was God called Aaron into, you know, a position of high priest in Exodus, chapter 28.
00:18:56.162 --> 00:19:04.221
So not only that, he was Moses' right hand man, but here's a calling, and we know what the priests in that day stood for.
00:19:04.221 --> 00:19:08.337
The priests were like a mediator between God and the people.
00:19:08.337 --> 00:19:14.121
They're the ones that went before God and they sacrificed on behalf of the people when they committed such sins.
00:19:14.121 --> 00:19:28.295
So when I think about those things Aaron being a high priest and then we fast forward to Exodus 32, you would think, as a leader, as the high priest, someone who goes before God on behalf of the people, that he would know better.
00:19:28.295 --> 00:19:31.612
So the Bible says, for what much is given, more is required.
00:19:31.612 --> 00:19:39.078
Because, a leader, you expect them to have some kind of spiritual maturity, right?
00:19:39.078 --> 00:19:43.977
Because we know the children of Israel, we could say that, okay, they don't know better.
00:19:43.977 --> 00:19:48.593
All they knew was being in bondage, mentally and physically, when they were in Egypt.
00:19:48.593 --> 00:19:50.278
And here it is they're in the wilderness.
00:19:50.278 --> 00:19:52.271
They tell an errand, to build them a golden cap.
00:19:52.271 --> 00:20:05.321
And this is where the leadership part comes in, because even when Moses came down, moses specifically said in 21, verse 21 of chapter 32, what did these people do to you?
00:20:05.321 --> 00:20:13.778
That's like a person that's weak converting a person that's strong.
00:20:13.778 --> 00:20:16.211
You would think that they ought to know better, right?
00:20:16.211 --> 00:20:17.596
So here's again.
00:20:17.596 --> 00:20:20.392
These people are not high priests, they're just regular, they're sheep.
00:20:20.392 --> 00:20:21.315
They're sheep.
00:20:21.315 --> 00:20:32.511
And here's a leader that has a high position, and Moses confronted Aaron and say man, what these people did to you, what these people, it's equivalent to like a seasoned Christian.
00:20:32.511 --> 00:20:37.941
And that's why I say I like the fact that y'all brought up a new convert, because the new converts, they don't know any better.
00:20:37.941 --> 00:20:43.099
It takes time, it takes pruning, it takes seasons for them to grow into maturity.
00:20:43.099 --> 00:20:48.839
So, yeah, new converts, they're going to do a lot of things and you know, we got to work with them, be patient with them.
00:20:48.839 --> 00:21:02.195
We got to pray with them, have Bible studies with them and show them the way to build a relationship with Christ.
00:21:02.195 --> 00:21:06.106
But it's equivalent to a new convert, a new convert causing a seasoned Christian to fall short, as though the seasoned Christian is a new convert, right?
00:21:06.106 --> 00:21:09.596
So the new convert could say hey, man, you know I'm used to doing this.
00:21:09.596 --> 00:21:14.076
And then the leader could say yeah, you know what You're right, let's go ahead and do it.
00:21:14.076 --> 00:21:20.874
So you would think that the seasoned Christian would know better, and that's why I'm seeing this.
00:21:20.894 --> 00:21:28.252
And Aaron replied, even unto Moses, and said look, moses, you know how prone these people have, a tendency to sin.
00:21:28.252 --> 00:21:29.634
They love evil.
00:21:29.634 --> 00:21:36.284
He said these people are prone to evil, to doing evil Again.
00:21:36.284 --> 00:21:39.433
It goes back to saying that Aaron, he should have known better.
00:21:39.433 --> 00:21:46.773
And I like the thought that Moses, he confronted Aaron because you need leaders like that.
00:21:46.773 --> 00:21:58.659
You need leaders that when a leader, another leader, is in error, you need another leader to rebuke a leader in love, because we know that open rebuke is better than secret love.
00:21:59.130 --> 00:22:10.596
Because imagine you have this leader, moses, and this leader, aaron, and he notices Aaron build a golden cap and he just looks side-eyed like he didn't see nothing, like I see it, but I didn't see it.
00:22:10.596 --> 00:22:13.519
Now, keep in mind, moses just had a conversation with God.
00:22:13.519 --> 00:22:16.699
So imagine, picture a scenery where Moses come down.
00:22:16.699 --> 00:22:19.957
He said yeah, I see it, but I don't see it after having a conversation with God.
00:22:19.957 --> 00:22:35.682
But it shows you that Moses was willing to confront his brother, his high priest, and said like dude, like you, good, like what happened to you, we did all this miraculous things with God and here you are, you building a golden cap.
00:22:35.682 --> 00:22:42.393
You took heed, you listened to these stiff neck individuals and you did exactly what they wanted you to do.
00:22:42.393 --> 00:22:43.858
You didn't have to do that.
00:22:43.858 --> 00:22:53.281
So this is where his leadership shoes, his leadership capture the kid, kick in and he should have, kind of like, rebuked the people and properly instruct them about the ordinance of the Lord.
00:22:53.801 --> 00:23:00.258
Okay, and I'm going to say this again Aaron was in bondage.
00:23:00.258 --> 00:23:08.237
Just because you're elevated to leadership does not know that you know how to govern the office that you have been given.
00:23:08.237 --> 00:23:11.284
You can be convinced and not convicted.
00:23:11.284 --> 00:23:19.311
Convinced and not convicted.
00:23:19.311 --> 00:23:20.453
What Aaron showed was like he was convinced.
00:23:20.453 --> 00:23:25.141
He didn't show a conviction in trusting God, my spiritual father, clyde Ruzon.
00:23:25.221 --> 00:23:32.452
He always said sometimes, when you look at leaders in the church, yes, they say they desire the position.
