- 00:01:09.886 --> 00:01:17.594
- I hid myself.
- 00:01:20.997 --> 00:01:24.534

- I was never really there.
- 00:01:48.925 --> 00:01:53.997
- There's not a man--I'm going to make a bold statement.
- 00:01:53.997 --> 00:01:57.400
- There's not a man in this room that has not hid himself in
- 00:01:57.400 --> 00:02:03.406
- some way.
- 00:02:03.406 --> 00:02:09.979
- The funny thing about men, and I've been counseling, I've been
- 00:02:09.979 --> 00:02:13.516
- working with a lot of men who are going through a lot of
- 00:02:13.516 --> 00:02:17.020
- things right now.
- 00:02:17.020 --> 00:02:18.354
- One of the most amazing thing is that Adam took these fig leaves,
- 00:02:18.354 --> 00:02:21.925
- and he hid his loins.
- 00:02:21.925 --> 00:02:24.861
- He hid the most productive part of himself, and I have found the
- 00:02:24.861 --> 00:02:34.804
- funny thing about men is the parts we hide are the parts that
- 00:02:34.804 --> 00:02:39.342
- would make a difference in the family, that we hide the most
- 00:02:39.342 --> 00:02:45.114
- productive part of ourselves and hide behind what we think
- 00:02:45.114 --> 00:02:51.654
- is masculinity.
- 00:02:51.654 --> 00:02:56.626
- Sometime we need to cry.
- 00:02:56.626 --> 00:03:02.632
- Sometimes we need to struggle.
- 00:03:02.632 --> 00:03:04.033
- Sometimes we need to let people know that it's not easy to
- 00:03:04.033 --> 00:03:07.837
- be us.
- 00:03:07.837 --> 00:03:15.144
- Sometimes we don't get the respect that we need or the
- 00:03:15.144 --> 00:03:18.181
- accolades that we need or the support that we need because we
- 00:03:18.181 --> 00:03:21.584
- hide that we need it.
- 00:03:21.584 --> 00:03:26.022
- And the woman you married may not have been raised around a
- 00:03:26.022 --> 00:03:29.525
- man, so she doesn't know how to read a man, and the man she got
- 00:03:29.525 --> 00:03:36.766
- she cannot see because he hid himself.
- 00:03:36.766 --> 00:03:46.609
- If we would stop hiding for a moment in this room, you would
- 00:03:49.078 --> 00:03:54.017
- be shocked at who we are.
- 00:03:54.017 --> 00:03:59.522
- So, God says, "Adam, where are you?"
- 00:03:59.522 --> 00:04:06.262
- Does that mean that God couldn't see him?
- 00:04:06.262 --> 00:04:10.500
- Of course not.
- 00:04:10.500 --> 00:04:12.835
- It might mean that God couldn't recognize him in all of the
- 00:04:12.835 --> 00:04:16.639
- stuff he was hiding behind.
- 00:04:16.639 --> 00:04:23.146
- I don't recognize who you have become.
- 00:04:23.146 --> 00:04:26.649
- I don't recognize who you pretend to be.
- 00:04:26.649 --> 00:04:28.618
- I don't recognize this person that you're acting like you are.
- 00:04:28.618 --> 00:04:34.824
- I don't recognize you.
- 00:04:34.824 --> 00:04:37.527
- Where are you?
- 00:04:37.527 --> 00:04:39.429
- When I left you, you were naked.
- 00:04:39.429 --> 00:04:40.930
- When I came back, you were some strange creature with
- 00:04:40.930 --> 00:04:44.534
- leaves on, walkin' around, playing the role, 'cause you're
- 00:04:44.534 --> 00:04:51.974
- scared that if anybody saw you, they wouldn't love you.
- 00:04:51.974 --> 00:04:58.247
- Anybody got the courage to say amen?
- 00:05:02.085 --> 00:05:08.858
- That's why we hide.
- 00:05:08.858 --> 00:05:10.226
- We hide because we think if you saw us, maybe you wouldn't love
- 00:05:10.226 --> 00:05:17.233
- us, so we hide ourselves, and we make stuff up to cover us up.
- 00:05:17.233 --> 00:05:27.276
- We'd make up stuff we gotta do and places we've got to go and
- 00:05:29.445 --> 00:05:32.615
- things that gotta happen to hide ourselves.
- 00:05:32.615 --> 00:05:38.855
- We get positions and jobs and money and status or muscles or
- 00:05:38.855 --> 00:05:44.927
- triceps or girlfriends
- 00:05:44.927 --> 00:05:54.570
- to hide ourselves, and she thinks you're
- 00:05:54.570 --> 00:05:59.108
- with her 'cause she's sexy.
- 00:05:59.108 --> 00:06:00.543
- It ain't because she's sexy.
- 00:06:00.543 --> 00:06:02.545
- It's because she covers you.
- 00:06:02.545 --> 00:06:09.585
- She covers your vulnerability.
- 00:06:09.585 --> 00:06:11.254
- She covers what you're afraid of about yourself.
- 00:06:11.254 --> 00:06:14.290
- She covers what happened to you.
- 00:06:14.290 --> 00:06:16.426
- She covers the part of you that don't feel so strong and she
- 00:06:16.426 --> 00:06:21.130
- tells you what you wanna hear, and she is your fig leaves.
- 00:06:21.130 --> 00:06:30.473
- "I heard thy voice.
- 00:06:33.976 --> 00:06:36.712
- I was naked.
- 00:06:36.712 --> 00:06:40.116
- I was afraid."
- 00:06:40.116 --> 00:06:42.485
- What are you afraid of, Adam?
- 00:06:42.485 --> 00:06:43.886
- You've been naked the whole show.
- 00:06:43.886 --> 00:06:49.826
- Adam has been naked the whole time.
- 00:06:49.826 --> 00:06:51.494
- He's never had a suit on in his life, but he didn't know he
- 00:06:51.494 --> 00:06:55.398
- was naked.
- 00:06:55.398 --> 00:06:57.567
- Who told you you was naked--when he found out that you could
- 00:06:57.567 --> 00:07:02.638
- see him,
- 00:07:02.638 --> 00:07:11.314
- he hid himself.
- 00:07:11.314 --> 00:07:19.021
- One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten,
- 00:07:19.021 --> 00:07:28.898
- ready or not.
- 00:07:28.898 --> 00:07:36.205
- God is saying, "Ready or not,
- 00:07:36.205 --> 00:07:46.215
- here I come."
- 00:07:46.215 --> 00:07:47.550
- You know why we can't really worship good?
- 00:07:47.550 --> 00:07:51.821
- 'Cause we hide ourselves.
- 00:07:51.821 --> 00:07:57.393
- So, it's difficult for many men to really get lost in worship.
- 00:07:57.393 --> 00:08:01.664
- Oh, we can act like we're at a football game and get the
- 00:08:01.664 --> 00:08:04.500
- rah, rah going, but if we get into deep worship with tears and
- 00:08:04.500 --> 00:08:09.906
- praise and your heart is open and you gotta be naked
- 00:08:09.906 --> 00:08:13.142
- before him?
- 00:08:13.142 --> 00:08:14.477
- Leave us out 'cause we can rah, rah, yo, yo,
- 00:08:14.477 --> 00:08:19.115
- like we are in a football game.
- 00:08:19.115 --> 00:08:20.583
- We up for that, but if we have to be naked emotionally and
- 00:08:20.583 --> 00:08:26.188
- vulnerable and exposed, oh no, that's for the women.
- 00:08:26.188 --> 00:08:34.764
- So, our idea of a great praise service is noise.
- 00:08:34.764 --> 00:08:43.973
- I heard that voice.
- 00:08:43.973 --> 00:08:46.409
- I was naked.
- 00:08:46.409 --> 00:08:48.978
- I was afraid.
- 00:08:48.978 --> 00:08:51.514
- I hid myself.
- 00:08:51.514 --> 00:08:53.015
- We can live and die and never be known.
- 00:08:53.015 --> 00:08:58.955
- You can grieve over the death of a father you've never
- 00:09:03.092 --> 00:09:07.897
- really met.
- 00:09:07.897 --> 00:09:12.868
- You met who he showed you.
- 00:09:12.868 --> 00:09:14.870
- You met who he showed you.
- 00:09:18.474 --> 00:09:21.377
- You met who he showed you, because most of the men in this
- 00:09:21.377 --> 00:09:26.882
- room don't even feel like anybody even knows who they
- 00:09:26.882 --> 00:09:33.623
- really are.
- 00:09:33.623 --> 00:09:35.758
- Adam, where art thou?
- 00:09:35.758 --> 00:09:38.594
- I want the naked you,
- 00:09:38.594 --> 00:09:44.400
- the nervous you, the worried you,
- 00:09:44.400 --> 00:09:50.306
- the crying you, the confused and broken you, the upset you, the
- 00:09:50.306 --> 00:09:58.948
- you that can't sleep at night, the you that's walking the
- 00:09:58.948 --> 00:10:02.318
- floor, the you that is with sin, the you that
- 00:10:02.318 --> 00:10:06.389
- contemplates suicide.
- 00:10:06.389 --> 00:10:08.157
- Adam, Adam, stop faking for the people, Adam!
- 00:10:08.157 --> 00:10:18.701
- I am looking for you.
- 00:10:22.238 --> 00:10:25.474
- Don't you know? Don't you know?
- 00:10:25.474 --> 00:10:29.078
- That I love you, not who you pretend to be.
- 00:10:29.078 --> 00:10:34.817
- Adam, I don't recognize this church boy game you playing.
- 00:10:34.817 --> 00:10:40.289
- I didn't die for this church boy you playing.
- 00:10:40.289 --> 00:10:43.759
- While you were yet sinners, Christ commended his love toward
- 00:10:43.759 --> 00:10:47.530
- us, and then he died for us while we were naked.
- 00:10:47.530 --> 00:10:53.602
- He died for the person you are hiding.
- 00:10:53.602 --> 00:10:58.541
- He shed his blood for the guy you're tryin' to convince them
- 00:10:58.541 --> 00:11:02.645
- that you're not, and you're up at 2 o'clock in the morning

- 00:11:05.448 --> 00:11:08.718
- can't catch you.
- 00:11:08.718 --> 00:11:14.590
- And if God is looking for you, and your sons and your

- daughters are lookin' for you and your wife is lookin' for

- male announcer: "And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to
- 00:14:25.447 --> 00:14:27.316
- the children and the heart of the children to their fathers,"

- Malachi 4:6.
- 00:14:30.319 --> 00:14:31.987
- Bishop Jakes: This is a man thing.
- 00:14:34.556 --> 00:14:37.793
- It's a man thing.
- 00:14:37.793 --> 00:14:40.329
- One man, the father of all men, and everything came into the
- 00:14:40.329 --> 00:14:47.603
- family through him.
- 00:14:47.603 --> 00:14:51.607
- It's a man thing, and it comes up in his boys, Cain and Abel.
- 00:14:51.607 --> 00:15:01.483
- Because the father has bit on sour grapes, the teeth of the
- 00:15:05.020 --> 00:15:08.424
- children are set on edge, and what you mad at him about
- 00:15:08.424 --> 00:15:17.666
- you caused.
- 00:15:17.666 --> 00:15:25.541
- It's a man thing.
- 00:15:29.011 --> 00:15:31.747
- One man in the sight of God.
- 00:15:31.747 --> 00:15:35.017
- There are only two men in the sight of God.
- 00:15:35.017 --> 00:15:42.958
- I swear to you it's only two men: the first man Adam and the
- 00:15:42.958 --> 00:15:52.935
- last man Adam.
- 00:15:52.935 --> 00:15:55.704
- And either you're born in the first one, or you're born in the
- 00:15:55.704 --> 00:16:01.443
- last one, but there are only--
- 00:16:01.443 --> 00:16:09.385
- there are only two men, and both
- 00:16:09.385 --> 00:16:15.190
- of them got this thing goin' on with the tree.
- 00:16:15.190 --> 00:16:26.468
- The first man Adam died because he ate from the tree.
- 00:16:30.539 --> 00:16:39.114
- The last man Adam lives because he was
- 00:16:39.114 --> 00:16:42.684
- hung on a tree.
- 00:16:42.684 --> 00:16:52.728
- Why do you think Jesus died on a tree?
- 00:16:55.097 --> 00:16:59.701
- When they beat him bad enough, he should've died on the
- 00:16:59.701 --> 00:17:03.238
- whipping post, but had he died on the whipping post, he
- 00:17:03.238 --> 00:17:07.476
- wouldn't have broke the curse that was on the first man Adam
- 00:17:07.476 --> 00:17:11.713
- because it was not about a whipping post.
- 00:17:11.713 --> 00:17:15.751
- It was always about a tree.
- 00:17:15.751 --> 00:17:19.955
- So, Jesus had to die on a tree.
- 00:17:19.955 --> 00:17:27.796
- Adam, where art thou?
- 00:17:30.265 --> 00:17:33.402
- I can fix this. I can fix this.
- 00:17:33.402 --> 00:17:38.307
- You don't have to take matters into your own hands.
- 00:17:38.307 --> 00:17:42.578
- You don't have to fix yourself.
- 00:17:42.578 --> 00:17:44.913
- You don't have to father yourself.
- 00:17:44.913 --> 00:17:47.516
- You don't have to mentor yourself.
- 00:17:47.516 --> 00:17:50.052
- Come out of hiding, Adam!
- 00:17:50.052 --> 00:17:55.324
- Adam, before you destroy yourself,
- 00:17:58.627 --> 00:18:04.066
- come out, come out,
- 00:18:04.066 --> 00:18:10.038
- wherever you are, whatever you're into, whatever you did,
- 00:18:10.038 --> 00:18:16.945
- whoever you are!
- 00:18:16.945 --> 00:18:26.188
- Adam, if you come out of hiding, I can fix it.
- 00:18:26.188 --> 00:18:35.964
- Adam, Adam, you don't have to be this unhappy.
- 00:18:35.964 --> 00:18:43.071
- Adam, you don't have to be this miserable.
- 00:18:46.942 --> 00:18:52.247
- Adam, you don't have to make your own clothes.
- 00:18:52.247 --> 00:19:02.024
- Adam, I will cover you. Adam, I will heal you.
- 00:19:02.024 --> 00:19:07.129
- Adam, I will bless you.
- 00:19:07.129 --> 00:19:09.464
- Adam, I will save you.
- 00:19:09.464 --> 00:19:11.767
- Adam, I will raise you up.
- 00:19:11.767 --> 00:19:14.403
- Adam, I've already seen you.
- 00:19:14.403 --> 00:19:17.172
- I've already seen you, Adam.
- 00:19:17.172 --> 00:19:18.941
- I love you with an everlasting love.
- 00:19:18.941 --> 00:19:22.244
- You can't fool me with your fig leaves, Adam.
- 00:19:22.244 --> 00:19:27.182
- Adam, whatever you're making to cover yourself is dying while
- 00:19:27.182 --> 00:19:33.622
- you're stitching it, and that's why the relationships keep
- 00:19:33.622 --> 00:19:38.794
- falling apart, 'cause they fig leaves, and fig leaves always
- 00:19:38.794 --> 00:19:43.298
- die when you pull them away from the roots.
- 00:19:43.298 --> 00:19:52.874
- And if I could ask God for anything this morning, I would
- 00:19:52.874 --> 00:20:00.782
- ask God to give the men in this room the courage, just the
- 00:20:00.782 --> 00:20:09.291
- courage, just the courage, just the courage to come naked.
- 00:20:09.291 --> 00:20:19.501
- I'm kinda crazy, but here I come.
- 00:20:23.205 --> 00:20:27.075
- I'm kinda wacko, but here I come.
- 00:20:27.075 --> 00:20:30.145
- I'm kinda depressed, but here I come.
- 00:20:30.145 --> 00:20:34.383
- I'm kinda scared, but here I come.
- 00:20:34.383 --> 00:20:37.252
- I'm getting older.
- 00:20:37.252 --> 00:20:38.620
- I don't know what to do with it I don't know how to handle it.
- 00:20:38.620 --> 00:20:40.989
- I define myself by stuff that's changing in me, and I'm scared
- 00:20:40.989 --> 00:20:44.993
- to death and I can't talk to anybody, but here I come.
- 00:20:44.993 --> 00:20:50.799
- I'm young and I thought I'd be further than I am right now, and
- 00:20:50.799 --> 00:20:54.069
- I can't get a job and I can't get up on my feet, but here
- 00:20:54.069 --> 00:20:56.471
- I come.
- 00:20:56.471 --> 00:20:57.839
- I'm afraid I got too much of my mama in me.
- 00:20:57.839 --> 00:21:00.208
- I give up too easy.
- 00:21:00.208 --> 00:21:01.543
- I run too fast, but here I come.
- 00:21:01.543 --> 00:21:04.546
- I'm coming to you.
- 00:21:04.546 --> 00:21:06.848
- You see, the problem with Adam is that God was raising Adam
- 00:21:06.848 --> 00:21:15.023
- because Adam never had a childhood.
- 00:21:15.023 --> 00:21:22.064
- He never got to be a little boy.
- 00:21:25.734 --> 00:21:29.471
- He got thrust into a position of authority so fast that he never
- 00:21:29.471 --> 00:21:34.242
- got to have a childhood.
- 00:21:34.242 --> 00:21:36.745
- And so, God is using this story not to raise a little boy.
- 00:21:36.745 --> 00:21:40.615
- He's tryin' to raise a man who's got a little boy down on
- 00:21:40.615 --> 00:21:43.819
- the inside.
- 00:21:43.819 --> 00:21:46.321
- Oh!
- 00:21:46.321 --> 00:21:49.558
- And God says, "I know you didn't get everything you were
- 00:21:49.558 --> 00:21:53.261
- supposed to get, but I still love you, and if you come out,
- 00:21:53.261 --> 00:21:56.565
- I'll fix you.
- 00:21:56.565 --> 00:21:57.899
- I care about you.
- 00:21:57.899 --> 00:22:02.504
- I know you saw too much too soon.
- 00:22:02.504 --> 00:22:04.606
- I know you went through too much too fast.
- 00:22:04.606 --> 00:22:07.109
- I know you were exposed to stuff you shouldn't have been exposed
- 00:22:07.109 --> 00:22:10.078
- to, and I know you're a grown man and you never got to be a
- 00:22:10.078 --> 00:22:14.116
- little boy, but I swear I'm looking for you.
- 00:22:14.116 --> 00:22:21.223
- I want you, I want you, I want you.
- 00:22:21.223 --> 00:22:27.362
- I don't know if Eve wants you, but I want you.
- 00:22:27.362 --> 00:22:30.832
- I can't promise you Cain and Abel, but I want you.
- 00:22:30.832 --> 00:22:34.669
- I want you.
- 00:22:34.669 --> 00:22:36.838
- I want you 'cause you didn't get all those eight steps.
- 00:22:36.838 --> 00:22:41.376
- You didn't get all that stuff, and now you're trying to be what
- 00:22:41.376 --> 00:22:46.114
- you didn't see, and you're playing a role that you have no
- 00:22:46.114 --> 00:22:51.086
- script for and you don't know how to really be a father 'cause
- 00:22:51.086 --> 00:22:56.825
- you never really had one."

- 00:23:07.035 --> 00:23:16.745

- Come out and didn't do well in school.

- Come out, come out, wherever you are.
- 00:23:26.922 --> 00:23:30.926
- Come out!
- 00:23:30.926 --> 00:23:33.628
- Come out wherever you are.
