Welcome to lecture number 19 on measure and integration. In the previous lecture, we had started looking at the properties of integral for non-negative measurable functions. We had looked at the linearity property of the integral for non-negative measurable functions and then we said we will start looking at the limiting properties of functions which are non-negative measurable and integrals of them. So, today we will prove some important theorems. We will start with proving what is called monotone convergence theorem and then we will prove for 2's lemma and then go over to define integral for general functions. So, let us look at what is called monotone convergence theorem. Monotone convergence theorem says that let fn be a sequence of functions in class L plus. That means fn is a sequence of non-negative measurable functions increasing to a function f of x at every point. That means f of x for every x in x is limit n going to infinity of fn of x. So, we are given a sequence fn of non-negative measurable functions which is increasing and the limit is f of x. Then the claim is the function f belongs to L plus. This we have already observed and the additional properties that the integral of the limit f d mu is same as limit of the integrals of f and d mu. That means whenever a sequence fn of non-negative measurable functions increases to f then integral of the limit is equal to limit of the integrals. So, this is the first important theorem about convergence of sequences of non-negative measurable functions and their integrals. Let us prove this property. So, we are given fn is a sequence each fn belongs to L plus is a non-negative measurable function for every n bigger than or equal to 1. That means that implies there exists a sequence will denote it by s and j of functions n bigger than or equal to 1 such that s and j are non-negative measurable simple functions for every n and for every j and s and j increases to f of f. Let us fix the notation which one we are going to vary. Let us say that the upper one will be fixed. This is going to fn as j goes to infinity. For every n fix s and j is a sequence of non-negative simple measurable functions increasing to fn's and fn's they increase to f. So, we want to show, we have already shown but we will show it again that this implies f belongs to L plus is a non-negative measurable function and integral f d mu is equal to limit n going to infinity integral fn d mu. So, to prove this, we are going to use this sequence s n and construct a new sequence of non-negative simple measurable functions out of it. So, what we will do is the following. Let us write that for n is equal to 1 that s11 s12 s1 j s1 say j this converges to f1. So, the upper index is going to give you. So, s21 s22 s2 j this increases to f2 and in general we will have sn1 sn2 snj will increase to fn and so on and this increases to f. So, let us observe that as we go from left to right this is increasing. So, everywhere left to right it is increasing and down to up that also is increasing. So, every sequence if you look at that, so this is an array of non-negative simple measurable functions, each row is increasing to the function on the right side and this is increasing upwards. So, let us out of this, I am going to define. Let us look at the function. Let me define from this a function. Let us define gn to be the function which is maximum of snj j between 1 and n. In a sense what I am doing is in this picture look at the one. So, let us say here is s1n and here is s2n and here is snn. So, I look at this column. So, s1 we are looking at the column sn1 sn. So, let us look at this column and call that maximum of this to be gn. So, what is gn? So, gn is the, so let me write again. So, gn is the maximum, so define gn equal to maximum of sjn j 1 to n. So, let us observe that each gn is a maximum of non-negative simple measurable functions. So, each gn is a non-negative simple measurable function for every n and gn is increasing because at the next stage n plus 1. So, all this, this is going to be bigger the next stage. If we look at gn plus 1, so that is going to be s1n plus 1, s2n plus 1 and so on, sn plus 1, n plus 1, n and sn plus 1, n. So, all this, this one is going to be bigger than everything on the left hand side and these are, we are looking at the maximum. So, in the, in the maximum of this is going to be bigger than or equal to maximum of this because at each the right hand side function is bigger than the left hand side function. So, this is going to give us that is gn is a increasing sequence of functions. So, let us write, let g be equal to limit n going to infinity of gn. So, g is, so all these gn's are increasing and they are going to increase to some function g. So, what we are going to show is g is equal to f. So, that is what we are going to check. So, let g be equal to, so then clearly by definition, g is a non-negative simple measurable function because it is a limit of an increasing sequence of non-negative simple measurable functions. So, g belongs to l plus. So, let us observe also each gn is less than or equal to fn. Each gn is less than or equal to fn for every n. So, that is because, see gn is the maximum of this. So, and the maximum of this, each one of them is less than f1, is less than f2, is less than fn. So, the maximum of these gn's is less going to be less than or equal to this fn for every n and fn is increasing to f. So, that will imply that, so gn is less than or equal to fn for every fn, fn is less than or equal to f. So, implies that gn is less than or equal to fn and is less than or equal to f for every n. So hence, and gn is increasing to g, so that implies g is less than or equal to f. So, that is one observation that the function g is less than or equal to f and we claim that the other way round is also true. So, claim is that f is also less than or equal to g. So, let us note that for every j between 1 and n, if I look at sjn, gn is the maximum of this. So, this is less than or equal to gn for every n. So, this is less than or equal to gn for every n and j between less than this. So, if we fix and gn is less than or equal to, so and this is less than or equal to g, so sjn is less than or equal to gn is less than or equal to g for every j between 1 and n and for every n. So, let us now fix j and let n go to infinity. So, as n goes to infinity, what happens? So, this converges to fn. So, note that as n goes to infinity, sjn goes to fj. So, from this and this, these two observations, sjn is less than or equal to g for every, so if we fix j and let n go to infinity, then n is going to cross over j and sjn as n goes to infinity converges to f of j. So, this implies f of j is less than or equal to g for every j. So, we get, so implies that fj is less than or equal to g for every j and fj's are increasing. So, this implies that f is also less than or equal to g. So, we have already shown g is less than or equal to f and now we are saying f is less than or equal to g. So, this implies that f is equal to g. So, hence, so one observation from here is, hence that g belongs to L plus, so f belongs to L plus. So, we have once again proved that if fn's are increasing to a function f and fn's are non-negative measurable, then f is also non-negative measurable. Now, note that integral of f d mu is same as integral of g d mu because f is equal to g and this is equal to limit n going to infinity of integral g n d mu because g n's are non-negative simple measurable increasing to g. So, by definition this is so, but each g n is less than or equal to f, if you recall. So, each g n is less than or equal to f. So, integral of g n will be less than or equal to integral of f. So, limit of integrals of fn's will be less than or equal to integral f. So, this is less than or equal to integral f d mu or we can even introduce in between. So, g n is less than or equal to fn, so it is less than or equal to limit n going to infinity integral fn d mu which is less than or equal to integral f d mu. So, what does this imply? Integral f d mu is less than or equal to limit fn integral of fn d mu and that is less than or equal to f d mu. That implies that integral of f d mu is equal to limit n going to infinity integral fn d mu. So, that proves the theorem completely namely integral of f d mu is equal to limit n going to infinity integral of f n d mu. This is a construction which is quite useful. This is the kind of analysis one has to carry out. Let us go through the proof again so that we understand what we are doing. Each f j or f n is a measurable function. I can look at a sequence s 1 1, s 1 2, s 1 j, s 1 n which is going to increase to f 1. Similarly, copper fix is fixed at 2, so s 2 1, s 2 2, s 2 j, s 2 n that increases to f 2 and so on. Each row is increasing to the function on the right side and the functions f 1, f 2, f n are increasing to the function f. What we do? We look at the maximum of this column. What is this column? This column is the maximum of the functions s 1 n, s 2 n and s n n. Call this as g n. This function is called g n. The observation is each g n is a maximum of non-negative simple measurable function, so it is non-negative simple measurable. Each g n is less than or equal to f n because we are going to be up to this corner only.  This says g n will be less than or equal to f n and each f n is less than or equal to f. Each g n is less than or equal to f n is less than f. If we write the limit of g, g n to be, so we write the limit of this to be equal to g, then g is less than or equal to f by this simple construction. Also, for any fixed j, let us look at s n j. Let us look at s n j, where j is fixed and n is going to vary. As n varies, what happens to these functions? For every fixed j, this sequence of functions is going to be s n j is less than or equal to g n and g n is less than or equal to f. We let g is less than or equal to f. s n j is less than or equal to g n for j between 1 and n, so that will give us that f is also less than or equal to g. That will prove the theorem that limit of increasing sequence of non-negative measurable functions, if f n is a sequence of non-negative measurable functions increasing to f, then integral of f d mu is equal to limit of n going to infinity integral f n d mu. This is called monotone convergence theorem. Monotone, because we are looking at monotonically increasing sequences f n and convergence, because we are looking at the convergence of the integrals of integral f n d mu. This proves monotone convergence theorem. Let us remark, we have proved the theorem monotone convergence theorem for when f n is an increasing sequence. Naturally, the question arises, will the similar result hold if I have a decreasing sequence f n of non-negative measurable functions? That result unfortunately is not true. So, here is an example which says that if f n is a sequence of functions which are non-negative measurable and they decrease to a function f, then integral of f need not be equal to integral of f n d mu. The example is on the Lebesgue measurable space.  Look at the function f n, which is the indicator function of the interval n to infinity. The claim is, this is actually a non-negative simple measurable function, each f n and f n is decreasing and decreasing to the identity function identically equal to 0. That is quite obvious to see. So, what is f n? So, here is n and we are looking at the interval n to infinity. So, we are looking at this interval and we are looking at the indicator function of n to infinity. So, the function is 0 and it is 1 here. So, the function is this height is 1. So, this is the function f n. It is 0 here up to here and then it starts and goes. So, that is the function f n. So, if we take n plus 1, so this is n plus 1. So, n plus 1 will be 0 here, but f n is equal to 1 here. So, clearly f n of x is bigger than or equal to f n plus 1 of x for every x. So, f n is a sequence in L plus and f n is decreasing and the claim is f n decreases to f of x, which is identically equal to 0 for every x and that because if I take any point x on the real line, then I can find some integer n, say n naught, which is on the right side of it. Then, so for every x belonging to real line fix, I can find a point n naught, a positive integer n naught. Of course, it will depend on x, such that n naught of x is bigger than x. So, that will imply that the indicator function of n naught to infinity or n naught to infinity, let us even n to infinity at x is going to be equal to 0 for every n bigger than or equal to n naught and that is my f n of x. So, f n of x is equal to 0 for every n bigger than n. So, that means f n of x converges to f of x, which is equal to 0. So, f n is a sequence of non-negative measurable functions, which is decreasing to f identically 0. But if we look at the integral of each f n, so what is the integral of each f n? So, integral of f n d lambda, so this is integral of the indicator function n to infinity d lambda. So, that is equal to lambda of n to plus infinity and that is equal to plus infinity for every n. So, integral of f n is equal to plus infinity for every n and integral of f d lambda is equal to f is 0, so it is 0. So, this implies that integral f n d lambda does not converge to integral f d lambda, whenever f n is a decreasing sequence of function non-negative simple non-negative even simple functions we have given example here. So, for decreasing sequences this result does not hold, so that gives importance to the monotone convergence theorem. That means, whenever a sequence f n of non-negative measurable functions is increasing, then integral f is equal to limit integral f n d mu for decreasing this need not hold. So, this is what we have shown just now by an example. So, however one can prove not an equality, but some kind of an inequality for a sequence of non-negative measurable functions. And that is also an important result, so let us prove the result which is called Fatou's lemma. It says let f n be a sequence of non-negative measurable functions, then the integral of limit inferior of f n d mu is less than or equal to limit inferior of the integrals f n d mu. So, this is only an inequality and it need not be an equality, so what we are saying is if f n is a sequence of non-negative measurable functions, then it is always true that the integral of the limit inferior of f n is less than or equal to limit inferior of the integrals.  So, to prove this theorem, so let us just first recall what is, so f n is a sequence of non-negative measurable functions, so each f n is a non-negative measurable function. And we want to look at limit inferior of f n as n goes to infinity. This is a function, so let us observe how this function is defined. Limit inferior of f n at a point x is defined as you take the infimum from some stage onwards, so m bigger than or equal to n of f n of x. So, look at the numbers f n of x, f m of x for m bigger than or equal to n, so I am looking at the tail of the sequence f n of x from m onwards. So, this number infimum will depend on m, so let me take the supremum of this overall m. So, first take the infimum from some stage onwards and then take the supremum of these infimums. So, let us observe that this infimum, let us put a bracket here. So, observe, so let me call it as phi m to be the infimum from the stage n onwards. So, infimum of m bigger than or equal to n of f n of x, phi n of x to be defined as the infimum from the stage n onwards of f m of x, because it is the infimum of a sequence of functions which are non-negative measurable. So clearly, so note, so observation is that each phi n is also a non-negative measurable function, so it is a non-negative measurable function that is 1. And secondly, we are taking the infimum from some stage n onwards. So, if we increase, so the claim is this phi n is increasing, this is the increasing sequence, because phi n from the infimum from the stage n onwards is going to be less than or equal to the infimum from the stage n plus 1 onwards, because we will have more numbers for which you are taking infimum. So, infimum can infimum, when you take infimum over more numbers then infimum can decrease. So, infimum from the stage n onwards and the infimum from the stage n plus 1 onwards, so that says that the infimum from the stage n plus 1 onwards will be bigger than or equal to the infimum, so increasing that is phi n plus 1 is bigger than or equal to phi n of x for every n. So, it is a increasing sequence of non-negative measurable functions and its limit is nothing but the limit inferior. So, it is increasing and so it is increasing and limit n going to infinity of phi n is equal to limit inferior of f n, n going to infinity. So, the stage is set perfect for an application of monotone convergence theorem, phi n is a sequence of non-negative measurable functions phi n's are increasing. So, by monotone convergence theorem, so we can apply implies by monotone convergence theorem monotone convergence theorem by monotone convergence theorem that integral of limit n going to infinity of phi n d mu is equal to limit integral phi n d mu n going to infinity. So, this side is nothing left hand side is nothing but integral of limit inferior n going to infinity of f n d mu, so that is equal to limit of integral phi n's. Now, let us look at what is phi n? Phi n is the infimum from the stage n onwards, so each phi n is less than or equal to f n. So, that is observation from here by the definition of phi n, we have that each phi n is less than or equal to f n. So, integral of phi n will be less than or equal to integral of f n, so it will be less than or equal to limit inferior of n going to infinity. So, what we are observing here is because each phi n is less than or equal to f n, so this implies, so this is what we are using here that each phi n is less than or equal to f n, then the n limit n integrals of phi n's are increasing, so it limit exists. So, limit n going to infinity integral phi n d mu is less than or equal to, however integral of phi n f n's may not exist, so we can say that it will be less than or equal to limit inferior of integral f n's d mu. So, this is what is being used in this conclusion and that proves the theorem, what is called the Fatou's lemma. So, we have two important results for non-negative, so we have got two important results for sequences of non-negative measurable functions, one of them is called the monodon convergence theorem, which says if f n is a increasing sequence of functions, non-negative measurable functions increasing to a function f, then integrals of f n's will converge to integral of f. So, keep in mind monodon convergence theorem is for a non-negative sequence of non-negative measurable functions, which is increasing to f and in case the sequence of non-negative measurable functions is not increasing, then we have got Fatou's lemma, which says that for any sequence f n of non-negative measurable functions, the integral of the limit inferior of f n's is going to be less than or equal to is always less than or equal to limit inferior of the integrals. So, these are the two important theorems which help us to relate the limit of the integrals with the integral of the limits and we will see applications of this in rest of our course. So, with this we conclude the section on the definition of integral for non-negative simple, non-negative measurable functions. So, let us just recall what we have done. We started with defining the integral of non-negative simple measurable functions, the functions which look like linear combinations of indicator functions sigma a i indicator functions of a i. For them we define the integral to be nothing but a i time summation of a i times mu of a i. We showed it is independent of the representation and we proved various properties of the integral for non-negative simple measurable functions. And then we looked at the class of non-negative measurable functions, since every non-negative measurable function is a limit of some sequence of non-negative simple measurable functions increasing to that function f. So, we defined integral of the non-negative measurable function to be nothing but the limit of the integrals of that sequence of non-negative simple measurable functions increasing to it. And we showed this integral is independent of the limit of the sequence S n you select which increases to f. And then we proved various properties including monotone convergence theorem and Fatou's lemma. And now let us look at how can we define the integral for a function which is not necessarily non-negative. So, for that we will do the following. We will start with so let us look at a function f. So, keep in mind we have got a measure space x s mu which is complete f is a function which is defined on x taking extended real valued. And we want to define so to define integral f d mu, this is what we want to know what it should look like. And of course, we would like this integral to have nice properties. So, we would like to have it to be a integral to be a linear operation. Now recall, so let us recall the function f can be written as f plus minus f minus. We can split it into two parts the positive part and the negative part of the function where f plus and f minus both are non-negative functions. And if f is measurable of course, with respect to the sigma algebra s that is true if and only if both f plus f minus are measurable. So f can be written, so this is the clue how we should go about. So f can be written as a difference of two non-negative measurable functions if f is measurable.  And if our integration is going to be linear it is all but necessary that our integral. So we should define integral f d mu whatever be the way we define it, it should have the property this is f plus d mu minus integral of f minus d mu. This is what we would like to have. This is defined, this is defined, now the question is the difference defined. So the difference will be defined if both of these quantities are finite numbers.   So with that we let us define what is the integral, what is called a integrable function. So a measurable function f defined on x taking extended real values is said to be mu integrable of course mu is the measure underlying space which is fixed.  So by our earlier discussion both these numbers f plus d mu and f minus d mu are defined. So if they are both finite in that case we say that the function f is integrable and its integral is defined as integral f plus minus integral f minus. So integral of f is defined as integral of the positive part of the function minus the integral of the negative part of the function. So whenever a function f is defined on x we say f is integrable if both the positive part and the negative part have finite integrals and in that case we define the integral of f.  So we will denote by the symbol capital L lower 1 x s mu to be the class of all mu integrable functions. So in case it is clear what is x and what is mu and what is s we can sometimes simply write it as L 1 of x or simply L 1 of mu. So if we understand what is the underlying measure space, so the space of integrable functions either it will be explicitly written as L 1 x s mu or sometimes simply as L 1 of x or L 1 of mu.  So for all integrable functions f belonging to L 1 of x we have integral f d mu. We will now study the properties of this integral.  So if f and g are measurable functions at mod f of x is less than g of x for almost all x and g belongs to L 1 then the claim is f is in L 1. So this is a very simple property we want to check namely that if, so let us f and g are measurable functions on x and we are given that mod f of x is less than or equal to g of x almost everywhere mu. So from here first claim is that if g is L 1 of x then that implies that f is in L 1 of x. So to prove that let us observe, so note we are given f x is less than or equal to g x almost everywhere x. So let us define n to be the set of all points x belonging to x where mod f of x is not less than or equal to g of x where this property is not true. Then we know that n belongs to the sigma algebra and mu of n is equal to 0, n of n is equal to 0. Now note because mod of f is a non-negative, so mod f belongs to L plus, g is non-negative measurable, so g belongs to L plus and on is almost everywhere. So mod f of x is less than or equal to g of x on n complement, so that is what is given to us. Thus implies integral mod f x d mu x which we can write as integral over n mod f x d mu x plus integral over n complement mod f x d mu. Now let us observe that the set n has got measure 0, so this part is 0 and on n complement mod f is less than or equal to g. So this is equal to 0 plus integral over n complement of mod f x d mu x and on n complement f is less than or equal to g. So this is less than or equal to integral over n complement of g of x d mu x and that is less than or equal to integral over the whole space g of x d mu x which is finite. So what we have shown is that in case mod f x is less than or equal to g x then we have shown that the integral of mod f is finite.  For any function the positive part is less than or equal to mod f, the negative part also is less than or equal to mod f. So that implies that integral f plus d mu and integral f minus d mu both of them are less than or equal to integral mod f and which is finite. So we have shown that the integral of f plus and integral of f minus both are finite whenever mod of f is less than or equal to, so what we have shown is whenever mod, so this property is true, this implies that integral of f plus and integral of f minus both are finite.   So I wanted to check that integral of mod f is less than or equal to integral of integral g d mu which we have already actually checked. So we have already checked that integral of f plus, so which is less than integral of mod f is less than, so mod f is less than integral g implies, so we do not have to do this, so is less than or equal to integral g d mu, so that follows directly from that mod f now we have shown is integrable is integral is finite, so this is less than or equal to integral of g. So this proves the first property namely if f and g are measurable functions and mod f x is less than or equal to g x for almost all x and if g is integrable then f is integrable. So what we are saying is if a function f of x which is measurable is dominated by a function g which is integrable then the function f also becomes integrable. Let us look at next the property that if f and g are equal almost everywhere and f is integrable then g is integrable and the integrable of the two are equal and that property is something similar to that we have just now shown a similar analysis will work. So let us look at we have got two functions f and g and f of x is equal to g of x almost everywhere mu. So let us write this at n x belonging to x where f x is not equal to g x then by the given condition mu of n not equal to that is equal to 0 and f x equal to g x for every x belonging to n complement. So now let us look at so we are given that the function f is f belonging to l 1. So implies we want to show that g belongs to l 1 and that is because if f x is equal to g x almost everywhere then that implies that mod f x is also less than or equal to mod g x almost everywhere. The sets where they are not equal so wherever they are equal so that is mod x is equal to g x. So because on then complement that will happen so this less than so that implies integral of f x is equal to g x. So we should say that f x is equal to g x almost everywhere so that implies f x is equal to g x mod f x is equal to mod x. So and just now we showed that whenever f and g are equal almost everywhere integral mod f is equal to integral mod g d mu. So either of them finite implies other is finite where given this is finite so implies mod g d mu is finite.  But f is equal to g almost everywhere we ask the reader to verify this that means f of f plus must be equal to g plus and f minus must be equal to g minus almost everywhere.  So integral g is equal to integral f whenever f and g are equal to g almost everywhere. So these are simple properties of integrable functions that we have looked at. So if f is equal to g almost everywhere and one of them is integrable then the other is integrable and the two integrals are equal. Next let us check the property of linearity.  So to check that property let us just observe one thing that saying that just now we looked at this kind of analysis namely if f belongs to l 1 of x it is same as if and only if mod f belongs to l 1 of x. So once again let us do this because this we are going to use it again and again.   So f belonging to l 1 implies integral of mod f is finite. Conversely, so let us look at the converse part that if mod f integral is finite so let us so conversely. So let us this is given to us that integral of mod f d mu is finite. So once again let us observe that f plus is less than or equal to mod f and f minus is less than or equal to mod f.  So that implies that f belongs to l 1. So saying that a function is integrable is equal into saying that mod f which is a non negative measurable function has got finite integral. So this property will be used again and let us see how that property is used in our proposition. Now so a belongs to real line and f is l 1 so look at mod of a f. So mod of a f is less than or equal to mod a mod f all are non negative functions. So integral of mod a f is less than or equal to integral of this which is mod a times integral of mod f d mu which is finite.  Now possibilities either a is equal to 0 in this case a f will be 0 and everything is 0 so no problem. If a is positive then this part is same as a times f plus d mu minus a times integral f minus d mu if a is positive and so this a comes out because of the property for non negative measurable integral of non negative measurable functions. So this will be finite in case a is less than 0 this becomes a of minus negative part again that thing is similarly for a minus so that proves the property that if f is integrable and a is a real number then a f is integrable and a comes out. So we will continue looking at the properties of integrable functions in the next lecture we will show that this integral is a linear operation on the space of integrable functions and various other properties of this space of integrable functions and integral on it. So we will continue this study in the next lecture. Thank you.


Really quickly, I forgot to mention in this video, the fact that ugly God said that he is independent and hear him explain his situation and despite what you might find online, I believe him. It's definitely an interesting situation and hopefully his situation comes out in some time, over the years, whatever, but for now, let's just hop into this video. What's up, everybody? Once again, it's Brand Man Shawn and I had the opportunity to speak to ugly God and he got some stuff correct, right, because I had a video on him and he clarified one big thing, but there was two things that were worth mentioning. So I'm going to get into it. Number one, water blew up faster than ugly God wanted it to, right? It moved quick.  It's a difficult situation for anybody to handle. I don't care how smart you are. And the second thing that he really wanted to make clear is the fact that he is the reason that he isn't dropping music. There's no label necessarily holding him back. There's nobody necessarily holding him back and not just the reason he hasn't dropped music because he did kind of drop some music last year, but also the reason that he has been low invisibility, which has all led to a big perception of him falling off, which I believe is completely premature, but is led to that perception and he's completely aware of that perception, but there's a difference between getting knocked out and just taking a step back. But at the end of the day, everybody has to face the reality that when someone goes silent these days, a lot of times people think they fell off. So here's my personal thoughts on the scenario outside of what I said already in the other video that I did. I'll put that in the link in the description below. When a song goes super viral like Water did, you're in a high risk, high reward space. And it's pretty difficult for people to make the right decisions. When I say high risk, well, you're typically risking the long term career because a lot of times people go for those immediate awards that are short term. Let's get as much visibility. Let's put as much music out and try to get as much money right now. But if you don't just want a short term career and if you're smart, then you're going to go like, nah, I'm cool on that. I'm going to figure out how I can get out of this and go to the long term decision. But getting out of this high risk, high reward space is like being on a tight rope since you have so much visibility. So first comes the pullout method. As I called it, if you haven't seen my video on the pullout method, you can check it out at the link in the description below. But many people have did it. I've talked about Metro Boomin doing it. Oftentimes people think that taking that step back for the pullout method means always just rebranding. It can be for many reasons that you do a pullout method.  And when you take that step back, you've got to have a lot of discipline because we're in an era where we always talk about drop more content, drop more content, go high volume, having that aggressive approach, which is the first way you could approach it.  You're trying to push it in the face or trying to convince them otherwise. But that typically doesn't work. Now you're at their will and you're chasing people's opinion trying to change their mind. That's hard to do from a one to many scenario. The second thing is you can just ignore it. But that's completely negligent and I leave to just ignore a situation when the landscape actually has changed. You came out in the game one way, but now people are starting to perceive you another way. You think, oh, I'm going to keep doing what I'm doing and what I planned when the old landscape was at play, then you're probably going to fail when the new landscape is at play. It I don't suggest people just gamble with their careers like that. Now the third option as I discussed is the pull out method. But what's important when it comes to this is you settle down, analyze the landscape and now you map out the new direction and understand that the more visibility you had and the more impact you made with that visibility, the longer you're probably going to have to wait before you do a sense of a rebrand. It's been a minute for ugly guy and in my opinion, you know, it's getting around a good time for things to happen for him because you basically have to think of the equation as this. You almost want to borderline get to where people have seemed to forgot about you. Right? You have the idea of them being for you or against you, whatever that is.  And do that silence. You even let that hating chatter and go down to a point where it's almost non-existent and then that's the opportunity to come back and remind people about you. But since you've taken some time, you can remind people about you in a way that you control more of the narrative than when you blew up, went viral and you know, a lot of things started to seep into your narrative that you didn't necessarily have control over.  That's left to be seen, right? We will see what happens. But you already know from my last video on ugly guy, I'm thinking pretty positively and I think this is a great opportunity. But we'll see what happens. I would love to know what you guys think. If you like this video, go ahead and like button. If you like your mind, well, share it.

Namaskaram Sadhguru, in this age of Kali Yuga, how would you introduce spirituality into corporate India? Because unfortunately I keep hearing this in the… in that segment of people, there's a corporate world. So, well, this is a very important thing that we don't break the world into many pieces which we have already done in the name of race, religion, nationality, community, caste, creed. Now corporate world, this is also not new, class has always been there. Either money or lack of money has united people. Money people gather in one place, no money people gather in another place. So, that is what probably they're referring to as a world. Well, different religions are claiming it is their world, you know? Now classes are claiming their world, I don't know what else will claim. Now there is a world, if you were a part of it, you would be a great contribution. But unfortunately, if you're not a part of it, you become exclusive. Exclusivity invariably brings exploitative tendencies in everybody. So, every economic system that you create, you talk about communism, you talk about socialism, you talk about capitalism, every system has become exploitative at certain point of success. Either exploiting the very people that they're supposed to take care of or exploiting somebody else who is not in the communist world or the socialist world or the capitalist world. Now how to introduce spirituality to these people? Well, these people have found material success. That means in many ways a few things, not everything about their life, a few things, they've gotten logically correct. So, it's very important that if spiritual process has to enter corporate world, it has to be logically correct. How to make a dimension, which is nothing to do with the limitations of logic, logically correct, that's a challenge. Because logic is based on the principle of two. There must be this and that, then there is logic. There must be high and low, then there is logic. There must be you and me, then there is logic. Now you're talking about a dimension where there's only one number, either one or zero. In many ways spirituality is a zero-sum game because there's one big hole. Who is here to cut this? It is not your birthday cake to cut it into many pieces and serve it to people. It can't be done like that. Well, you're trying to do that in your mind, for that there is inevitable suffering that everybody is going through. So corporate world is also just one more piece of the cake, maybe the creamier part of the cake.  Generally at least the men in the corporate world are little noosed up. Because of that, even the breadth is constipated. Because of that, very limited logic. First of all, human logic is a very limited process. Most human beings have not understood or grasped the basis of our logic and the limitations of our logic. This is why they're going on, energizing silly little things that they say. Well, for this there is Indian masala.   Yes, why the tongue, your tongue will hang out and you will be pointing at me all the time. Yes. So Indian masala is there with which we can say most illogical dimension of life in a logical way.  But we are saying the most illogical things. Because life is not contained in logic, life contains logic as a part of itself. But you cannot contain whole life into the logical process that happens in your mind. This is the big investment that the western cultures have done, that they've invested too heavily in their own logic. They believe their logic will take them to the ultimate. No, for the first time the physicists in the world, the top physicists in the world are admitting, we shall never know because we don't have instruments to know. This is a clear admission that human logic cannot go beyond a certain point. It has its limitations. But this limited logic, we hash it up with Indian masala and use it to express the most illogical dimensions of life. I must tell you this. At one time when… this is a… in mid-90s, when Isha as a movement in southern India was growing exponentially. So, further local people in Tamil Nadu, I'm somebody who landed up from somewhere who doesn't know a word of Tamil but bullying them with their own language or saying all kinds of words which don't belong to Tamil but conveying what I want to convey. Even today I'm managing Tamil language with just thirty-three words of vocabulary. Then it was just lemon. So saying all kinds of things, but it was logically correct. So they were taken by it and it was just growing. The state government got little nervous, who is this guy? Just anywhere he goes, thousands of people gathering, what's happening? Is he going to start a new political party? Is he going to contest elections? All these kind of things came up. So it seems they sent some intelligence officers to our programs. Maybe here also, I don't know if you're FBI. So they came and they did the Inner Engineering program. Then unfortunately they got into the Bawaspandana program. And the horror of horrors, they got into the Samyama program. And then they submitted a report. After almost two years after this report was submitted, we found some access to the report because we didn't even know such a thing had happened. So these guys who reported to put it in a brief form, they said this first program is very good. You know what they mean. What they mean is it's logically correct. Second program is little crazy, but all right. Third program, this must be banned. Because without doing anything, they're just sitting there and going crazy. Not doing anything, at least in the second program they were doing something to go crazy. In the third program they're doing nothing and while they're going crazy, this must be banned. So when I came to know of this, I thought this is a classic case of observation. It has to be logically correct. Tell me, is your existence logically correct? In the middle of nowhere, you don't know where this cosmos begins, where it ends. In the middle of nowhere, you're sitting on a little mud ball called earth. It's just a tiny little mud ball and thinking up all kinds of things sitting here. And whoever comes here, we call them an alien. Aliens have come. We are a microscopic, super microscopic existence, but any other life is alien to us. So this is our logic. It's absolutely illogical. Your very existence is illogical. There's simply no logic to your existence. We are trying to find meanings, no meaning. So of course, with the corporate people you have to say, you will be peaceful because they're never peaceful. And they're telling me about hundred and twenty thousand corporate leaders are in the executive group of people, managers and executives in United States are dying much earlier than they should. And about hundred and eighty billion dollars is being spent on just corporate executive help in this country. Why are they so sick? It's very natural. When you have a world of your own, you will be sick. I want you to understand. We not only have a world of our own, we also have separate heavens. You should see on the golf courses people keep on arguing, there is a golfer's heaven. Golfers go to a different heaven, where it's full of golf courses. Sex maniacs go to another place. Foodies go to another place. Separate heavens are also there, just like the separate worlds that we have created. So corporate world, whether in India or elsewhere, they want something which is logically correct, but still takes them ahead. Well, you know we got the solution in engineering. Hundred percent logically correct. Pick a whole net, let me see. You cannot because it's so logically perfect. It's like Indian masala. If you taste all the ingredients separately and the final product, the final product doesn't resemble anything that you have put into it. So it's like I'm calling it Indian masala because in the end it works and that's all that matters.


The health of your child. What could be more important to you? The pathway to good health starts with good nutrition. And making sure that your child gets the proper start is your most important obligation. Mother's milk with supplements or fortified formula provide all the necessary nutrients for the first 4 to 6 months of life. Breastfeeding provides a feeling of security and intimacy between mother and child and your baby consents your satisfaction. Nursing also protects your infant against certain newborn infections. However, if you are uncomfortable or anxious, the baby consents this too and perhaps bottle feeding should be your method of choice. During the months when you are nursing, it is very important that you eat a balanced diet. Your diet should include the basic 4 food groups, milk and dairy products, meats and other good sources of protein, breads and cereals and fruits and vegetables. Your doctor may recommend that you take a vitamin and mineral supplement while you are nursing. Drink lots of fluids, but avoid alcohol or caffeine, including cola drinks. Smoking is not advised since nicotine may be transferred through the mother's milk. Your baby's nutrition and health depend on your good eating habits and proper diet. Your appetite may increase when you are nursing. This is normal since extra calories are required to produce milk. However, if you start to gain weight, you may be eating too much. Junk food has become a large part of our daily diet. It may be convenient, but you know it's not good for you. And for your child's nutritional health, it's a disaster. Your baby grows faster during the first year of life than at any other time. His body grows and his brain grows. But if he doesn't get the correct food, he won't grow properly. A few suggestions on breastfeeding may help you and your baby enjoy the experience. The baby can be held comfortably whether you sit or lie down. Stroking his cheek with your nipple triggers a reflex causing him to begin feeding. Depress your breasts slightly near your baby's nose so he can breathe more easily. The baby will drink most of your milk during the first five minutes, but continues to nurse because he has natural sucking instincts and because he likes to be close to you. Check with the doctor before going home from the hospital to see if any iron, vitamins or fluoride supplements are necessary for your baby. If the doctor prescribes these, put the drops in the side of his mouth with a dropper. Father can help with the feedings too. Mother can pump her breast milk into a bottle for use at a later time. Bottle feeding with a prepared formula provides good nutrition for your baby also. Always wash your hands before handling the bottles. Clean the bottles thoroughly. Wash deeply into the bottle, down the sides and around the threads on top with a brush. Clean the screw threads on the cap with a nipple brush. As you clean the inside and outside of the nipple, force some water through it with your thumb to be sure the opening is clear and clean. Be sure to rinse everything thoroughly. Washing the top of the formula can adds an extra measure of cleanliness. If you use a prepared formula, be sure it contains vitamins and iron. The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends that infants receive iron-fortified formula or breast milk throughout the first year of life. The amount will decrease as you increase the quantity and variety of solid food. Always follow label directions carefully, whether the formula is powdered, concentrated, or ready to use. You may be advised to sterilize the bottles after you prepare the formula, especially if you live in an area without an approved water supply. Formula remaining in the can should be covered, refrigerated, and used within 24 hours. Remove the inner cap carefully, making sure you don't touch the nipple. Warm the formula by holding the bottle in warm water or use a bottle warmer. Test for normal temperature by sprinkling a few drops on your wrist. The nipple should sprinkle it out in drops, not squirted out in a steady stream. Hold the bottle so that the formula fills the nipple. This prevents your baby from sucking in air. Burp your baby frequently. Your baby will need to be fed every three or four hours during the day, but do not wake her up for a feeding during the night, unless your doctor tells you to do so. Feeding should take between 15 and 20 minutes, but no longer than 30. Talk to your baby. She needs to hear your voice. Even when she is very young, your conversation is important for her normal growth and development.  As the baby grows during the first six weeks, she will want more milk. Increase the amount to as much as 26 to 32 ounces per day, but not more than that. Don't hesitate to call your doctor or clinic if you have any questions about your baby's eating habits. Always put your baby to bed on her stomach to prevent suffocation if she spits up some food. If you put your baby to sleep with a bottle, use only plain water. Anything else will deposit a layer of sugar that can weaken her first teeth. When your baby is taking the maximum amount of milk and is still hungry, he's ready to start on cereals. Rice cereal is a good one to begin with because the incidence of allergies to rice is very low. Later, you can alternate with oatmeal or barley. Continue to supplement your baby's solid food diet with breast or formula feeding until he is about a year old. He will naturally decrease the amount of breast milk or formula he wants during this time. Check with your physician when you are ready to take your baby off formula.  Your baby will tell you when he is full. Don't force more food into him once he is disinterested. Five to seven days after introducing cereal, add a baby vegetable. Start a different vegetable after another five to seven days. Keep adding foods for variety, waiting five to seven days each time. Once your child is eating vegetables regularly, you may begin to feed him fruits. If one of the foods doesn't agree with him, avoid it for a few weeks. If a rash, diarrhea or vomiting persist, consult your clinic. Around the age of six months, he will be ready to eat strained meats. Do not use the combination or high protein dinners. They actually provide less protein for the number of calories they contain. In place of prepared baby foods, you can grind up regular adult table foods that have been prepared without salt or seasonings, using a blender or hand grinder. Food can be prepared in bulk and frozen as individual servings. A clean ice cube tray can be used to freeze individual portions. These can be stored in clean plastic bags for use within a week or two. The toddler learns about the world partly by putting things in his mouth to taste. It's very important that you lock up all household poisons, drugs and anything that could be dangerous to swallow.  It's not enough to put things out of reach. The cabinet must have a lock on it.  Don't force these foods on your child. Give him other foods instead. He'll likely eat better if you give him things he can handle with his fingers. He's too young for a knife and fork, but too independent to have you feed him. By the time he's a toddler, he's no longer growing as fast and doesn't need as much food. Don't force him to eat.  Include foods from the four basic food groups. Milk and dairy products, meat or other good sources of protein, bread and cereal products, and fruits and vegetables. This will ensure a nutritious diet, not only for your children, but for the whole family as well.  And that can make all the difference for the rest of his life. Your child depends on you to start him on the path of good nutrition and good health.

The President of the United States. Thank you. Thank you all very much. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you all. Well, thank you all very much. And welcome to the old Executive Office Building. I'm still trying to find out how they got this thing built, because I think it was built before they had those big derricks. Well, it's good to see so many old friends and allies from the many battles of the budget that we've fought together. Despite the momentum of 30 years of steady growth in federal spending, we've made in these past six years dramatic progress. For the first time in more than a decade, in real terms, the federal government this fiscal year is spending less than a year ago. And they said it couldn't be done. Well, with federal spending gradually being reigned in, we've been able to reduce tax rates, bring inflation under control, and unleash the greatest anti-poverty engine known to man, the free enterprise system of the United States of America. In the last 50 months, almost 13 million new jobs have been created. 61% of the population, over 16 years old, highest on record, has gone to work. The stock market has doubled in value, and we've embarked upon what could become the longest peacetime expansion since the Second World War. These are tremendous accomplishments, accomplishments that must be protected, which brings me to the subject of this gathering today. In the last two weeks, as its first major official act, the 100th Congress enacted an $18 billion sewage treatment program that is so loaded with waste and larded with pork, I cannot in conscience sign it. Not only is this act of Congress unacceptable as written, it is sad and deeply troubling for what it portends. Let me give you a brief history of this legislation. In 1985, we proposed a generous $6 billion program to carry on and win the fight against pollution in America's estuaries, lakes, rivers, and streams. Both political parties long ago agreed on the need for this legislation, and I felt that the executive branch in the Congress could surely agree on the amount. Well, last fall, however, as the campaign began to heat up, Congress tripled our proposal to $18 billion, and I was forced to use a pocket veto to protect the budget gains that we had made. Early in the new year, in a spirit of compromise, we offered the Congress a doubling of the spending that we had proposed. In other words, splitting the difference. We would go to $12 billion, and we found ways to and means to achieve this within the Grand Rudman-Holland deficit targets. By offering to split the difference, we felt we could solve the problem to everyone's satisfaction and get on with the business of government. Not only, however, did the new Congress burn our compromise, it sent down the same old $18 billion budget buster with virtually unanimous support, defying me to veto again a piece of legislation that had something in it for most of the members of both houses. Well, I accept that challenge, and I am vetoing this legislation. And let me tell you why. Let me tell you why. First, countless projects in this bill have less to do with water than they do with the politics of the pork barrel, with enabling members of Congress to go home to their districts and say, look how I brought home the bacon. Second, if this legislation is allowed to pass without my protest, it will send a powerful signal to the markets of the nation and the world that the United States has once again abandoned the high road of fiscal responsibility, that we are once again starting down the same dismal and discredited path of spend and spend that led to the near-ruination of our economy less than a decade ago. Now, I know this veto is going to be overridden. I know I do not have the votes to sustain it, but it's time we did the right thing, all of us, regardless of the political fallout. Just three nights ago, the Congress of the United States rose in unanimous applause when I declared from the Speaker's podium that the U.S. budget deficit was unacceptable and outrageous. Well, I'm now asking them to stand with me in the first great battle of the deficit in the 100th Congress. My friends, on Capitol Hill, you cannot have it both ways. You cannot vote to radically increase deficits one day and decry them before the nation the next. It's time for a little more political courage, a little more political consistency than the part of all of us. With this veto, I am imploring the Congress once again to stop, reflect, and reconsider before plunging ahead on this course. Do you really want to return to the politics of spend and spend? Do you really want to put at risk the immense progress that we've made together? Do you really want to aggravate a budget deficit as the primary cause of a trade deficit that has already caused thousands and thousands of American jobs? Let's not belly up to the same old bar. Let's not drive down that dangerous road again. Let's work together both for clean water and responsible government. In closing, let me say to both the Congress and the American people, I trust that this budget-busting water and sewer bill, the first major legislation of the new 100th Congress, proves to be an exception to the rule, an isolated error, and not a harbinger of things to come. But if it is, then Congress will not only have chosen to embark on a collision course with the executive branch, it would have risked one day being held fully accountable for derailing perhaps the greatest recovery the American people have ever known. Now, one bad test does not mean failing grades, so let's hope that this is not a trend. And with that said, I shall take pen in hand.


So I'm moving again. I just moved today to a new place so Not much has changed. I mean you're gonna see me walking a lot and Probably in new places this this place is like right on the bleeding edge of the most luxurious and and expensive And I do that as a joke since Thailand That's how Thai people speak expensive so the most expensive business center in Israel, so there's gonna be a lot of Porsches and Maserati's and Maybe we'll see a Ferrari Rari Rari Anyway Yeah, I love moving. I love changing places When I stay in the same place for more than like a month or two I start getting fuzzy inside I started getting that feeling of stagnation, you know, you should move Move it's boring and the first thing I do is always sign up to the gym Like I know I move to a new place when I sign up for the gym So I always find these gyms were you know there they have these awesome You know kind of these awesome gyms. Sorry these awesome gyms were you just come for like a month And then say goodbye So I found one like this underground awesome gym and I'm really happy and The next station I thought I'd be going to Europe But it took me a bit longer to finish my things here Then I thought like a month longer. So, you know, like Dan Tanya says never underestimate how wrong you can be and Sorry for the noise so so Instead of going to Europe late now, I'll just be going straight to Thailand Because this is really the last call in terms of going there in about two months It's gonna get all Wet there and raining and not instantly but the best time to go if I remember correctly is pretty much between September to the end of December and If you wait to till February then, you know stuff bad shit starts happening It's gonna rain a lot because I was there for a month and a half in rain. It rained like a motherfucker Once for like eight hours And it was like three hours. It stopped immediately and then four hours, you know after a couple of hours It was crazy like bam be massive rain than no rain. So I'll be moving to Thailand for a month or two Right after I finish it here. I believe that by the first of December I'll be hey guys.   I just know it's a trick. It just works amazing You should try it People just stop talking when you start talking really loud So See I'll be moving to Thailand and there I mean I can live on like literally a $2,000 a month budget at least in terms of rent plus maybe a bit of expenses and Living like a five-star hotel You know my own jacuzzi again. I love having my own jacuzzi. Sorry. I need to turn right having my own jacuzzi I'm so excited, you know life life gets better and better for me every single month. I guess Thanks for watching. Thanks for following me Thanks for being here.   Okay. Talk soon


Blessing if you're in Christ Jesus you're born again blessing belongs to you. Yes, it does It's the blessing that comes on you when you get born again was Jesus poor Did he have anything to say about finances was his disciples poor? Because folks if we're trying to be like Jesus and if Jesus was poor When we study this today, and we discover and we discover that Jesus was indeed poor Then that folks I tell you we got a job to do today I tell you every lady's got to sell her blouse every man's got to get rid of the suits and cars And we need to barbecue for Memorial Day under a bridge somewhere as we give our house away because we need to be poor like Jesus Come on and give God praise our God's a good God He heals hearts Gives new beginnings He furnishes your house. I see that God came to you know Jesus died that we might live an abundant life and to be a Blessing to others. I can't be a big blessing to people if I'm poor and broken depressed, and I don't feel good about myself Money coming to me what you talking about Last name dollar better have some cheese in the United States criminal code title 18 They have in place under fictitious names frauds and swindles don't ask me how I know this But they have a an adjustment an enhancement that if you are convicted of Taking money or defrauding people they have an enhancement This enhancement is called abuse of trust It kind of is duplicitous It's kind of the same as what they're already putting on you, but the reason for it is Not just taking something that doesn't belong to you or without the person's knowledge This abuse of trust enhancement is used if you gain the trust of people Who unwittingly give you something of value like in this case? They're money You knowingly defraud them Using your platform your place your position to defraud them Well, you have that in a lot of churches a day because the question is why do people? Why do we tolerate some of these people?  Why do we tolerate the Ken Copeland? I mean these people have a large following and I think a lot of people Go into I would imagine that a lot of people see these people who As they may see them as con artists They may see them as as hucksters and jive artists and so forth But go into to what they're offering hoping Right. They they look forward Maybe they may I've seen people that have looked to these people thinking that you know These are crooks paid attention to them and they say, you know, they bought into them hook line and sinker Well, why is that? Well, the Bible talks about them one in 2nd Timothy 3 He says we understand this that in the last days there will come times of difficulty and see if some of these folks are in this People will be lovers of themselves Well, I think that describes a lot of these preachers, but also also a lot of the people in the audience They will be lovers of money Well, you have to be a lover of money to go after what Kenneth Copeland and Creflo doll in these guys with a shovel You have to be a lover of money proud arrogant abusive disobedient parents ungrateful unholy heartless Unappeasable slanderous without self-control brutal not loving good treacherous reckless Swollen with conceit lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God You can't love God and do what they do, right that he says Having the appearance of God on this but denying its power He does avoid such people for among them are those who creep into households to capture weak women burden with sins and let us stray by various passions, so that describes one the people that are being deceived as well as the people that are doing the deceiving and Any good con there has to be two elements There's got to be two elements in order for you to con someone if you're if you're a snake oil salesman Whatever you are there's two things that have that have to be there at least these two things one There's got to be someone there in need or In greed Oftentimes the line is between needing greed or blurred But there's got to be someone there who wants something who can't get what they're looking for at least Thus far they haven't gotten it on their own so that that has to be there in other words There has to be a demand are you with me? Just regular business one-on-one. Well, if there's a demand Then naturally if there's a supply well in this case someone to pray on the need or the greed of these people within now you've got an explosive combination when you go back and look at a person like a Y'all remember the guy Bernie Madoff who defrauded millions of well default defrauded billions One of the things that was noticed amongst the investigators. It's this happens all the time Even amongst folks that were defrauded is their their complicit greed in other words a lot of people have to play into this buy into this Because they want more than what they're getting what they're getting now. It's not enough They want more the problem is when you're a Christian and you want more you want gotta have more more more more more, right? And so the first thing that some of these Christian con artists have to do in order for them to scam Christians They have to supply the dream, right? Right y'all sit up there looking to be like Well child, you know, I don't know that sound. I don't know I don't know if I can imagine that well shut up Because you'll never get what you can't imagine You can't see yourself ever harvesting that kind of money just be quiet and get out of the way before you can ever get it You're gonna have to see yourself getting it. You have to see yourself harvesting. You have to see yourself with it And I can't help it. I see myself with it. I see myself being run over by the head Press down shaking together running over. I can't help it. It's going in. I'm blessed going out I'm blessed in the city and blessed in the field. I'm blessed in the summer and blessed in the winter I'm blessed with snow on the ground and when it ain't on the ground Hallelujah, glory to God money coming to me. What you talking about? Last name dollar I better have some cheese Yeah, buddy. Hey sell that thing Cref low dollar bill You've got to be able to sell the dream You've got to be able to cash the vision and they will use scriptures in all sorts of ways What do they say? One of the one scripts that you might hear often is the people perish for lack of vision you folks don't have a vision That's why you're poor. You got to have a vision.  God wants you to be successful They'll they'll abuse third John which says that beloved I wish above all things that you be in health and Prosper even as your soul prospers.  They they quote that a lot They well, they don't quote it. They actually miss quoted They twisted a lot and so they have to sell the dream to you now if I'm going to sell the dream of opulence and wealth and money to somebody The only way to do it is I've got to also show them that I that I've got the same wealth drug dealers who Look for or recruit other young drug dealers to kind of come in with them You got to show them what you got right? You got to show them the money the women the houses all of that You got to be able to show the same thing same thing with these people So you got to be able to show the people that you have what they're looking for my chandeliers cost more than most people's house I got 22 chandeliers in the house that the holy ghost train you to ask for the right thing Lord, I want a two story house. What is that? My house almost 25,000s graphy. You can get lost in it. I had to get some speakers in there so I can find my wife Yeah, I live in it. I drive it. I drive it. I live in it.  Yeah, my boy to tell you I don't never hide nothing from the body Christ And I'm not scared of nobody God did it. You better not mess with me. I'll tell you so you know it can happen So I've got to show you that Maybach Rolls Royce I got these $20,000 these expensive chandeliers this big house. I'm living in what God Wants me the way he wants me to leave now I'm gonna show you because many of you are gonna watch this and think that well This doesn't apply to me. This does not apply to me I'm not one of those guys that are gonna listen to one of these charlatans like a Creflo dollar Like a Leroy Thompson. I'm not no this is a plenty.  Do you think now just just stop for a second thing Do you think if you would ask these folks that have gotten a lot aligned and hooked up with these people if you Would ask them let's say several years before they did if they would have ever dreamt of being Aligned or in cahoots with some of these people they probably said no. No, I don't know People hear about these scams these multi-level marketing things little Ponzi schemes even the little church schemes that they have people have heard about them and Steel walk right into them. It'll be different this time We'll talk about that in in a little bit But now so if I if I paint the dream and I show you that I've achieved it the next thing that has to be Presented is that I'm the expert. I Have to be able to convince you that I know what I'm talking about Where you're trying to go? I've been there. So listen to me, right? Well in this case They need to know that I'm wealthy. So what I'm shoveling to you what I'm offering you it's work for me How do I know?  He said I heard you as a millionaire. I said that's not right That's not true. He said yes. I said no, it's not Multi-now add that to it. You'll be all right. You are not listening to somebody. That's broke Yes, so they need to know that they are wealthy that they are rich and now They don't want to tell you exactly how cannot give the keys to the kingdom way Can I give you the secrets away? So I need you all you need to know is that I'm wealthy I can help you to get wealthy. Well, okay. I'm all ears because I'm tired of being broke. I'm tired of struggling I'm tired of having issues so Since I'm all ears hmm Tell me and guess what they're gonna do they're gonna tell you and they will obviously because it's church You have to throw some scriptures in there. You got to twist some things up We're gonna look at one of the scripts that pull up, but They're good. They are good. They are good at what they're doing And so they want you to can now by the way in order for you to get blessed You're gonna have to continue to bless them. Well, how do we do so well by sowing a seed? You're not giving you're not giving the blessing anything to multiply You're just gonna take the involvement of money So it can be multiplied. I have sown financial seed And I'm expecting them to produce after their own kind in the form of financial blessings I have a feeling that somebody They won't say credit card debt wiped out that if you'll use your faith as you sow as you sow the thousand on a credit card as you use your faith God's gonna wipe out your credit card and debt and people people buy it of that I Old money on this credit card. Let me just take what I owe. I'm tired of this I'm tired of this debt. Let me go further in debt and Offer some more just as a as me sowing a seed now It is true. It is true to some degree that whatever you sow, you're gonna reap that Let's let's pull up that passage and see if we can get a good understanding of what this past is talking about And let's see if what they're saying if it's true if it's sort of true if it's completely true, but with a danger In Galatians chapter 6 verse 7 says do not be deceived God is not mocked for whatever one sows That will he also reap For the one who sows to his own flesh will from the flesh reap corruption But the one who sows to the spirit will from the spirit reap ever lasting life or eternal life now It is absolutely true without question that whatever you plant That's what you're gonna. That's what you're gonna harvest Okay, now I will talk about this whole issue of sowing and reaping Um and in just a few days to come but that part is true And so if you want to keep going after money If you want to keep sowing financial seeds so to speak their their terminology if you want to keep sowing financial seeds More than likely you're going to see some sort of a gain In some ways now as rich as you as you want to be Or as rich as they're selling it Probably not probably not But what happens is you develop an attitude You develop an attitude to be focused on money getting this money getting this money And so what you end up becoming is a hustler You're not being wise you're not working for you when you're just hustling and hustlers hustlers end up In trouble. I'll just leave it at that But there's a point to be made here And I think we would be remiss in not pointing it out. He says for The one who sows to his own flesh will from the flesh reap corruption So sowing this financial seed if that's your goal Even if you get what you're looking for financially What are you going to reap because? Financially that that goes with sowing to the flesh Your goal is to get something material. Well, guess what? If if what you are more afraid of is being poor than hell Well, you'll probably get both You'll certainly get the latter If you're more concerned with being with getting money than getting god Though you might get the money you might not always But you won't get god and that becomes a problem because look what it says It says but if you but the one who sows to the spirit if what you're after is Getting closer to god Then what you what are you going to reap? What will be the harvest eternal life? That's the goal That's not what they're selling though. No, listen if you want to buy some eternal life We don't sell it at this church. Nope. That's not what we're shoveling here Go down to this to the church down. Go.  They might be faithful members. Go to that church They're they're they're shoving that jesus stuff over there over here. We're talking about jesus. I'm driving a maybach or flying a jet Yeah, that's the kind of that's what we're serving over here That's what we're offering over here at our opulent church with all the big screens There's nothing wrong with having big screens in the service, but that's what we're about. We're about money Right. That's what we're about over here.  We want we want dollars matter of fact. We don't even want dollars anymore No, we don't even we don't want coins. We don't even make coins anymore. We don't want coins anymore and If you're gonna give something that folds make sure there's at least three digits to it a hundred dollar bill something like that Maybe two fifties. We'll take that or five twenties No ones please and no old dollars, please no old dollars. Give us give us new dollars But what we'd rather have is that card Give us the card not a check because we're not sure if that because you might be writing one of those faith checks No, give us something that we know The money is secure and so if it comes down to giving us a check Or giving a uh, uh, some dollars. We'll take the dollars because at least we know the dollars will spend Yeah, that's what we're about over here We're about prospering. We're about prosperity and god wants you to be rich so How do you do it? The key to being rich according to them. So a c Gift now there's various types of ways of giving we can guilt you into giving by saying giving your tithes also offering We don't really care what you call it. Huh creflo. We don't care if you call it tithes or if you call it offering just give And what are we gonna say? You can't be god. Give it give to him and he'll give back to you, right?  I start giving on that level so that god would owe me Oh, y'all don't hear what i'm saying. You can't handle that I started giving on the level where I put god in debt and god said i'll hold no man I start giving on the money that I wanted to make I start giving on a deal that hadn't closed yet And that god had to open up the windows of heaven and pull me out of blessing because he wasn't gonna be in debt to me Wow, so you can give god make god owe you Hmm I would love to be there Would love no I wouldn't no I wouldn't because I wouldn't want that even you know Even done with that. Um, but this makes you wonder what's gonna happen when he goes before the lord Thomas dexter make that fit Square that circle before the lord God I could just see god now that I can see him.  Let's let's see how that works. I tell you what I do owe you.  Where's warm? That's what I owe you Depart into everlasting torment.  He'll give back to you They'll say it's so it's so in granted It is where the the one scripture where he where where guy says try me and see try and see Won't I oh well first of all he wasn't talking to us That's number one who wasn't talking to us So you can try Something that was meant for israel if you want to try out all you want to let's see how that works As a matter of fact walk around the bank seven times and shout see if the vault doors fall open for you See how that works by the way if it does, uh, you better not touch the money If you do you are going to jail my friend But jail is not an issue for them that they don't they don't believe that they are uh That they are in danger of anything because after a while when you get when you get so comfortable in deception Deceiving when you get caught in a sin The longer you do it The more it becomes natural It must be right. God must be for this. I have seen people Who have been in adultery who have rational rationalized themselves in the thinking that it's okay God is for me and he wants me to be happy. I've seen that I've seen with a you pick the sin You name it. I've seen it you've got christians wondering if it's okay if it's okay to smoke weed Well, it was illegal now now it's legal and and it's an herb it comes from the earth Well, first of all everything on the planet comes from the earth I don't care what it is every chemical manufactured comes the the ingredients that not come from out of space So however you want to rationalize sin Go ahead. What ends up happening is you get in this it's like it's like walking down walking fast down a hill When you're walking fast down a hill It's hard to stop, isn't it? It's it's real hard to stop walking down.  So now you pick up speed now you're running Now you out of control the next thing left to do is to fall to crash and burn And so you can see these guys get get going going going going going going it's like Nothing's happened thus far so far so good. So I'm probably all right. Matter of fact God is probably behind me. There are people who have convinced themselves that god is in their sin Or they've convinced themselves that their sin is no longer sin anymore That happens again. I'm gonna show you And talk to you and tell you why this is important for you You Very important now If I am going to sell you on this junk And this junk if I'm going to sell you on this well I've got to kind of I've got to make you feel good about it, right before I go there We've covered this passage before and I think I think it's germane. I think it's necessary to go over again Look at it says it says Paul says of timothy in second timothy. I charge you there from the presence of god And of christ jesus who is to judge the living and the dead and by his appearing and his kingdom preach the word Be ready in season and out of season reprove rebuke and exhort with complete patience And teaching for the time will come when they will not endure sound teaching or sound doctrine But having itching ears. Uh-oh Having itching ears. They will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own passions You got folks that are going to want to have their ears tickled Tell me something to make me feel good. I'm looking for it. I'm looking for a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow Well, I'll tell you what I'm gonna do I will paint a rainbow and tell you what's at the end of it. Just come and give me some money Really? Seriously, I believe you why I don't know you but just because I wanted to be true Having itching ears.   Remember I said in order for the scheme to work There's got to be someone who has a uh, demand and so you you give the supply Even if the supply isn't that great ladies Looking for a husband. Hmm. Go and find any of me.    Because you have because you were looking for something also. It's not just ladies, but it's also men Uh, you want some sort of you know what? I'm feeling down and depressed in my spirit I feel incomplete and so someone is shoveling the opportunity for me to go grow closer to god Which is a good thing Which is a good thing But to go up in the spirit To be something extra spirit Extra spiritual super spiritual not supernatural no super spiritual And so all you got to do is this and that and let me touch you Let me let let me birth something out of my belly and first of all I don't want anything that somebody on stage is birthing out of their belly to give it Don't give that to me. No because the word is not enough the word doesn't do me any good Read my bible. That's just born matter of fact. I tell you when I read the bible I'll read the bible when I'm tired and I can't really fall asleep. So I'll open it up And then I'll just yeah, that's what that's that's how good the bible is for me That's what I use it for but I need I need a new word. I need a fresh word I need a rama word, which by the way, we have abused this word somebody sent me an email To remind me to do a video over what the word the rama word and the logos is We have abused that and have no clue what is being used for what it means, but I'll need a rama word.  By the way, you do not want the fire of god. That's judgment okay now But you want something and if anything even if it ain't money if somebody can give it to you I just want to feel good. I just want to feel special And if the word isn't doing it for you if getting closer to him It doing it for you then I question your salvation If he's not enough then you may not have him Because I can promise you if you got him, you'll know he's more enough. He'll keep you busy He'll keep you moving. He'll keep you occupied and entertained more than one of these cats on tv can do And so that's the danger. That's why it's important Learn from their mistakes. Yeah, their issue is money, but yours it might be food might be drugs might be whatever else Trying to fill a need by any means instead of just looking at the scriptures and get it that way Let the spirit guide you and I'm not talking about some supernatural way that we don't see in the bible But you can't put god in the box. Can you who you can't say how god's going to use somebody? Yeah, you can't you can say exactly how god is going to do because he's told us in his word but If I'm going to sell this to you or anything, you know what you need Do you And again, it's not just places that are selling financial freedom But it's those that are also selling the supernatural There has to be Something to kind of encourage you a pep rally tonight is my night I'm moving out a load of bar and I'm coming to the kings table. I'm coming out This is my night. This is my year. This is my season. This is it Now we crossed the line tonight. This is it They are on fire. They are excited. They are they listen if you can just harness that energy you can light up a small block Some major cities block right all that energy To get something that maybe god didn't want them to have Jesus literally says the poor you shall have with you always The poor you shall have with you always and so what is he doing? He's tapping into their grief. Let me read the passage for you guys Uh-oh, there it is Timothy Paul says in Timothy says but those who desire to be rich Fall into into temptation into a snare into many senseless and harmful desires that plunge people into ruin and destruction And then look at the last page the last verse After that he says for the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil It is through this craving that some have wandered away from the faith and pierced themselves with many faith pangs Now this is the same someone lost their salvation. Somebody's saying um, but Those who desire to be rich. I want money lots and lots of money. I want to be rich. I'm singing the lyrics of a song That's what they want you desire to be rich. Listen, there's nothing wrong with having a desire to be well off and so forth and financially stable but at all costs Over overlapping or jumping over the main thing Yeah, because look what he says he says They fall into a snare into many senseless harmful desires that plunge people into ruin and destruction I told you the story about how I sold a seed A seed that I didn't have because I wanted I wanted this money I sold this seed And it was light bill seed. It was it was it was txu It was their seed it was their money And they were they was not happy with me sowing their money as a seed And they turned off my lights and just said well, we'll see how that works for you Let us let us know how that faith thing works for you Corey But in the time being we're taking our energy from you.  All right, let me back up. Let me back up Let me be sensible And that was really the last time that I sold a seed that I didn't have so But these folks have this love of money that's this desire The love of money is a root of all kinds of evil A lot of things come from that A lot people transforming their bodies transforming their minds Becoming doing things they don't want to do or they never would have thought they would have done And I told you that prison is littered with people who if you asked them The thing that brought you to prison the thing that brought you down Was there every time that you would have thought that you never would have done They always said you listen There was a time that I never would have thought that I would have done the thing that I did to brought to bring me here But what brought you here? A desire for something unnatural a desire for for money for fame which comes which That's connected with money power connected with money. Maybe some woman or some man that like me connected with money and so The bible is true Maybe we ought to start reading the bible and seeing what it says But at the heart of all of this you've got to back this stuff up back this foolishness up with some scriptures, right? And so of course Dr. Creflo dollar who again, so I said the guy the guy has not repented Because if he were to repent he would repent not over just of his Distortion of ties But he would repent over this other stuff. He hadn't he hadn't said that he was sorry for this stuff He hadn't said that he was wrong about this stuff. Okay Again, it was just ties and so I need to move away from that I need to get you to focus on just giving guilt skipping. That's what I want you to do And so I've got but I want you all to know that I am about you ought to be about gaining Money to enriching yourselves And so I need to give you some scriptures for that Isaiah 60 Rise and shine for thy light has come the glory of the lord has risen upon thee For behold the darkness shall cover the earth Broke darkness the people but the lord shall arise upon thee and his glory shall be seen upon thee And the Gentiles shall come to thy light and the kings of the brightness of thy rising Lift up thine eyes round about and see all they gather themselves together They come to thee thy son shall come from far that daughter shall be nursed at thy side Then thou shall see and flow together and thy heart shall fear and be enlarged because the abundance of the sea Shall be converted on to thee the forces or the what? wealth of the Gentiles Shall what come on to thee Somebody shall So he's reading from Isaiah 60 now the thing about isaas 60 was before isaas 60 is Isiah 59 And he's talking about the whole point of what isaas talking about Is when or if they come back then these are the things that would happen for them The god would bless them as a result of coming back and he's clearly speaking to Israel okay, and then he says that There will be some wealth that will come upon them But creflo again he Anywhere that he would do a word search and find money or wealth or prosperity Anything that sounds remotely like money in the bible. He's going to glom on to it and twist it for his own personal use for his own game Money cometh unto me Thine eyes round about and see all they gather themselves together They come to thee thy son shall come from far that daughter shall be nursed at thy side Then thou shall see and flow together And thy heart shall fear and be enlarged because the abundance of the sea shall be converted onto thee The forces or the what wealth of the Gentiles shall what come on to thee Somebody shout money cometh unto me This is your week And so they are excited. How do you get them excited because you've already gen them up you've been preaching They didn't just get this preach of them just that day.   He's telling you that Hmm, you can have these nice things. It's not that difficult. It may not be it may not take it may not come so How to put it it may not come as quickly as you'd like it to come But it will come I'm sorry. I'm sitting looking at something else, but it will come Take a little time Take a little effort But it will come and so here's a passage that I that I think you ought to look at This is in again 2nd Peter chapter 2 verse 3 He says and in their greed in their greed They will exploit you with false words their condemnation From long ago is not idle and their destruction is not asleep The reason why we have these false prophets these false teachers these these sharks these snakes They pop up out of greed They want something from you They want to they want to get what you got matter of fact. Let me I'm trying to figure out I had something queued up. I don't know why it's not even popping up Uh in my I guess in my haste would have you it didn't it didn't show up But there was something that I wanted to play that I probably won't be able to play it But something from our good friend Our good friend um smiling joe one of the things that he talks about is how It's not going to come um Easily or quickly But if you look at his church, he's always one to let you know that god is after the great things in your life He wants you to be I want you to be prosperous.  But the fact of the matter is They are going to any kind of shawlton any kind of wolf. They are going to play on your Emotional needs. They're going to pump you up. They're going to pump themselves up They're going to show you how great that they are how things have worked out for them And how you can have what they have how you can be what they have become Uh in the end though gets what you got to do You got to give up some money You've got to make sure that the money that that that that you have to offer to the lord You need to make sure Um, excuse me make sure that you send that money in Make sure that one again the check clears If you're not paying into this ministry Well, then I don't think that this ministry is a right ministry for you Oftentimes you'll see even in a lot of these these deliverance ministries these people that I Have in the holy spirit magically imparted on them There's going to be some giving also associated with that It's matter of fact, it's it's really rare that you will even see ministries like that so-called ministries. I'm being nice That you'll see these these organizations where they're doing these things while where they are Not blasphemy the holy spirit that's what they're doing, but they are being blasphemed us and then asking for money in return All right, this has been a blessing for you. So a seed This is this is a good ground. And so we want to take this ministry across the world across the globe to other people And so at the heart of it as he says It's their greed Even if it's not necessarily their greed for money, but their greed for fame and power. Well, what accompanies that? money As we say follow the money So make sure that the same things that entrap these people because again Oftentimes when you're down when you find yourself frustrated you can find yourself looking somewhere anywhere just like Just like These other people are doing the same thing and so Be prayerful always test the scriptures make sure that what you're seeing is actually biblical and When someone is telling you when someone is promising you something that god didn't promise you god never promised us to all be rich He did not he said the poor you will have with you always Was jesus did jesus drive around? Um Did jesus drive around In the wealthiest state no he did not as a matter of fact he told his people that Birds have nest and fox have holes, but the son of man has no place to rest his head And what are they this and we're gonna follow you anyway? Where else we go? Where else are we gonna go now they can go and be like the Pharisees and scribes and and live opulent lives If they want to of course, it's kind of hard to get in that club But that's not what they're gonna do This young rich fella comes to jesus and says what must i do to be saved? What's what's next? He says well, sell your stuff sell your stuff Now selling yourself. He's not saying be poor. That was never his point But his point was if your whole focus if your goal was to be full was to be focused on money Well, then that's going to be that that's the problem If you're if your goal if your focus is money Well, then you won't get it or you may get it, but you'll find yourself inhale And so was jesus trying to be rich? No, he was not. Could he have been sure he was he owns the he owns everything He owns everything was was his disciples rich? No, they were not they lived harsh hard lives And so even if you don't have a lot of money Even if you don't have the things that you want doesn't matter Your reward will come in. What does he say? um Be not weary and well doing but in due season you shall in due season you shall reap a reward Amen
