 Good evening. Good afternoon. Hope you all are doing well. I am feeling wonderful today and so That being stated as you all know It's difficult to cover every single question that's asked. I'll do the best I can. I'll try as quickly as I can But you guys know me sometimes I might go a little bit longer on a particular question So you all forgive me. I'll try to get through as many as I possibly can I did go ahead and pre-select normally it's five four or five that are That have been submitted the first four or five that are usually submitted Once the thumbnail goes up, but this time I selected an extra one So there's six the reason being is because BJ asked a question on the last the last video and So I wanted to go ahead and I want to That's a good question. By the way, that's what it says interesting question I want to go ahead and jump into that as well first. So BJ asked a question says Did Rebecca wear a nose ring in Genesis 24 47? Personally me. I'm not that big a fan of nose rings. So I got you know what I guess some women wear them well, I Think some people have kind of gotten a little bit What's the word a little bit gone a little bit overboard with them, but yeah, okay So let's go to Genesis 24. I'm not saying if you do have a nose ring by the way ladies and gentlemen I'm not saying that you shouldn't have one. I'm just saying Some people can kind of go with that. That's just that's what I'm saying Anyway, let me stop for a get myself in trouble in Genesis 24 47 then I asked her and Said whose daughter are you and he said the daughter of the tool may or son Who milk aboard him and I put a ring on her nose and the bracelets on her wrist And so the question that you asked BJ was does she have a nose ring? Yes That's actually nose ring maybe and that was kind of a culture back then they would they would have some of people would have Rings the ladies I should say would have was I take it back some of them into would have rings in their nose So yes, the answer that question. Yes. She did have her have a nose ring Gabriel Christine She says what can we learn regarding prayer when it comes to Hannah in first Samuel? What hope can we hold? What hope can we hold to when you know that God has afflicted you or orchestrated your circumstances such as Hannah's bearing this well And I'm familiar with Hannah's story. Well, yeah, I'm familiar with Hannah story of the reason why is because When we were looking to name our third daughter That name hand has popped up and because of this particular story What you can learn is that God is in control Now, can you glean the same thing? From there and apply to your life in other words saying that maybe God is gonna do the same thing He may not all you can get not necessarily from that story But just from the Bible in general that God is in control. He may Bring about something he may not he may leave a person in their physical condition He may use that physical condition as a way to bring him glory He may do something vividly with that person's physical condition to show the world that he is God So that being the case, I wouldn't look to I wasn't I wouldn't harp on her story Why because it's her story The story is meant to show God and of course he's going to use Samuel in leading his people But it'd be difficult to say you need to go ahead and look at her story And then think it's gonna be the same way because the problem is if it doesn't happen that way then you'd be left disappointed I pray that whatever person is seeking for maybe yourself if you're looking for something For God to heal or God to move I pray that it happens But what I pray more than anything else is that your comfort in him would be of the utmost importance that that That that is the priority And then however he moves is however he moves So I hope that helps my sister Then Berean Apologist says Before Jesus became flesh would it be more correct to say that he was the word of God and said instead of saying he was the son of God Since son implies of a point when son doesn't exist son since father exists before son. Well, remember It's not necessarily more correct to say the word because he is called the word of God He's also called the son of God, but he's also but so we don't get rid of the term son. Remember One of Jesus's favorite terms for himself includes the word son He calls himself son of man and this also refers to him His pre-existence that he's come from everlasting to everlasting and so I Wouldn't necessarily say that's a more correct way Sometimes we try to figure out how to say something that other folks can kind of understand it or maybe not be Offended or confused. No, I wouldn't do that If if God is gonna work in them then God is gonna work in them And so I would not try to find a more better way all of those terms are applicable word Son of God son of man The Lord rows of sharing all these different titles are given as a matter of fact a lot of the reasons why you will see Some of the same things said different ways Is because sometimes that way that is said might jar something more than it would another person and so I Would I wouldn't look to see which way is a better way all of those are fine. Amen Neat to ask a question she says and in Corinthians when Paul was telling the church to marry because they might not have the gift to abstain I'm sorry abstain from sex Did he mean it was also okay to marry an unbeliever just so they would not for a kid. He did not He did not He would rather you to be now. This is Paul saying he would rather you to be as you are Unmarried and focused on God But he recognizes the situation at hand, but it does not mean it shouldn't be taken that you can go ahead And because you want to be with somebody that you just be with any old somebody it needs to be somebody who is Of the same or as we said before equally yoked now does that term do not be equally yoked referred to marriage? No, not specifically, but it also but it does apply to marriage It's always been God who stated that someone should be what someone should be married with Another person of God, so if you are a man of God, you should marry a woman of God If you are a woman of God, you should marry a man of God now if you happen to be Unequally matched together while you're married will then stay that way But lead the other person as best you can in your walk and in your heart your attitude and your words to crisis best you can Amen I'm in search of true 41. I'm gonna come to yours next, but let me let me do a Tommy J Says could you explain more about primary and secondary application in the New Testament? Many of the commands in Titus chapter 2 are written to Titus directly, but how do they apply to us as well? You know what? Let's do this. I Was gonna just answer and just give a generic answer. Let's go to Titus 2 Because you're right Titus 2 as a matter of fact, not just Titus 2 But the letters to Timothy These are letters to people that are are these were a part of the park past pastoral epistles and These are young pastors that Paul is sending out and he's training them how to Plant the church plant churches and so forth now some of these things are really kind of geared towards Those who are going to kind of be in that line of ministry But there's always something that you can glean either from a secondary or primary application now Let's see Let's look at Titus 2 3 This we can all get older women Likewise are to be revered in their behavior not malicious gossips nor enslaved with that to plaster all of us All of us can get that especially older women. He's speaking to older women, but he's just telling this to Titus Why to let other people know to let the men and the women know are you with me? So Let's continue Urge bond slaves to be subject to their own masters and everything to be well pleasing well Again Titus was not a bonds a bond servant or a slave, but he might encourage others now again different time and someone will say well, this is Paul trying to Encourage or to be okay with slavery. It's not what he's saying that it's not what he's saying But that'll be something else to discuss a different time But when you talk about primary and secondary application, what you do is you are to see if it's spoken to someone specifically and Now if it's if it's not spoken to let's say us or for the benefit or for us specifically We look and see step back and look at the overall Context was happening what what's going on and see is there anything in that that we could also maybe use or gain Some wisdom from in ourselves. So maybe someone is handling or dealing with someone a certain way for example David is led by God to to number the people but then later on he decides to number them again Well, maybe now this is David in God and this this is a primary application, but we could also learn, you know what? Do your best to not move on your own without first consulting God? So there are some things that are primary applications in second year I always use the easiest example. I can think of it well a couple easy ones Then marching around the walls of Jericho and then the walls come tumbling down There is no way that we could apply that primarily to us But there's some there's some things we can get from that such as that God is powerful There's a lot of different lessons you can get from that You want to be like Daniel and you want to apply everything that Daniel went through? I'm not sure you want to go to the lion's den You might not get the same sort of protection that he got you they might open the open it up and find some bones So There are different things that you and you all know how to what to get back I shouldn't say that because you would take we take for granted sometimes What what things are spoken of to us specifically and what things are spoken to us just for the benefit of our knowledge I always It bothers me because it has to deal with sometimes our hermeneutics how we read the scriptures because we just we just switch We've flipped the switch when we come to the Bible and we look for something super deep Super mysterious we call it allegorizing or spiritualizing the text and I use people so why are you all? Why do you constantly talk about? Why do you talk so much about the distinction between Israel and the church because that's a clear example of us? Allegorizing text and making what God said to them applicable to us Interestingly enough not everything we want the blessings, but not the curse that come along. So anyway Let's see now. This is the question in search of truth 41. Where are you by the way? Where are you? Insert all right. I should I there's a reason why You probably ought to be bad and blocked. There's a reason why Let me read his question and then you all tell me should should we block or ban in search of truth 41? He said he starts off this way would you take a moment that's how we started off Would you take a moment? to explain predestination I Don't know that anybody can take a moment to explain predestination No, please. No, no, I'm not gonna know It's gonna be more in the moment, but I'm trying to do this quickly, but interestingly enough though He went deep went to a passage Where is it? passage brought up was Nine Luke not Luke. Wait a second. Wait a second. Someone else asked a question Someone else asked a question Okay, nevermind. I'm sorry You what is it Romans nine Romans nine? And look at me. I can't spell Romans nine. There's a s on it Romans nine 22 so it goes this passage and I can see why he went into this particular past. I get it. I get it he says What if God although willing to demonstrate his wrath and to make his power known Endure with much patience that's a wrath prepared For destruction. I haven't highlighted prepared because his question is His question is this Would you take a moment to explain predestination thought came to me as I was reading Romans nine particularly verses 22 to 24 Okay, so now here's what predestination is and I'll try to be as I'll try to take as little amount of time as possible God knows one thing about me and you and everyone else in the chat and everyone else is gonna be watching everyone else It's not gonna watch. We're all the same. We're bad people rotten people. No good whatsoever But what God does is God makes an offer I think that God makes an offer to everybody on the planet that lives and ever has lived to come to him Making this offer though. No one is going to accept Now imagine this God throws a party or God throws a wedding feast. Let's keep it biblical and no one shows up No one shows up what a Sad lonely wedding piece that would be have a party and no one wants to show up Right. Hold on one second. I didn't for my daughter to come get the cat. He is outside He waits he waits till I go on But he's a cool cat though. He actually is a cool cat, but he just waits to the very last minute That's why sometimes about 440 430 450 I take him and I put him in the den and close the door Let me out there, but anyway the sad party what a sad party it would be for this for this Feast to be thrown and no one shows up Now think about this guys the feast is thrown and no one shows up now what God knows Since God is what we say. I'm I'm the present He's not everywhere right now at the same time, but he's everywhere all the time at the same time meaning He's not just here in In Texas. He's also in Indiana. He's also in Mexico he's also in California But he's also in these places everywhere else a Thousand years ago two thousand years ago Excuse me Whoo Something has me just I don't know what it is, but he's everywhere At the same time all the time so a thousand years ago 2,000 years ago 3,000 years ago or a hundred years from now It's my you guys are laughing me for fighting the sneeze. I was trying to fight this sneeze I had a sneeze like about four or five minutes ago and I was holding it. So now what do I have to do? Have to blow my nose But you know what that means Me having to blow my nose is a treat for you guys. You know why because you get to listen to this See, I told you Anyway, I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I don't know if I had Something worse than what I had. I really don't know if it was maybe Maybe it was Colby who knows who knows spirit of sneezing. Maybe it was Colby But it's it's just it's been lingering and I mean lingering and lingering so but I Didn't I haven't I haven't gone. I haven't even gone to the church. I think once once in the last I Couldn't go to church this past. I just wasn't feeling good. So once in the last we can have just in case I Have some I don't want to give anyone anything. So anyway, but so back back to this really brief Story that's not getting brief anymore So God has this party playing this feast and no one shows up but because he's omnipotent I'm the present he is there at the end and realize there's no one here No one there for him to show his love. So what does he do? Well, because he sees in time He knows exactly what's gonna happen that no one on their own is going to show up now Some people as he throws out the invitation as he sends the invitation Some people are going to want to say they'll say yes I'll be there sure count me in and then don't show up Count me in but then won't show up. So what does he do? He then and this is the definition of the word folks with there are those that might disagree but He will predetermine or destined in advance some Now does that mean that he's guilty of those people going to hell that he also if he predestines some to heaven He must predestined. Oh, no, think about the analogy He invites them they say no on their own. They have the ability to Say no or to say yes all of them every last one of them says no So what does he do? He goes and Because he's God he will go and he will Pick out monkey moves He'll go grab see if it's right. He will go pick out Jeff Are you with me? He'll pick out and then he'll pick out Sierra. He'll pick out Sheila He won't pick out raider for life because he's a raider, but then I take it back. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry It's football season he picks out Cameron he picks out raider for life He picks out anything picks out that he picks out these people Now the people that he doesn't pick out they don't have the opportunity To come and say wait about what whoa wait about me. What about me? You didn't choose me I invited you you said yes, but you didn't show up or you said no. I'm not coming. I don't want to see your party Okay, you had a shot you had a chance But since I decided on my own to go and grab you and bring you back. I have that right to do so It's my party It's it's it's my party so I can do what I want to because it is my part And so that is what predestination is and so in Romans 9-22 let's go back to it up. Let's go back to it What if God all the willing by the way, it's a good passage to pick all the willing to demonstrate his wrath and to make his power known Endure with much patience vessels of wrath prepared for destruction And he did so to make known the riches of his glory upon vessels of mercy Which he prepared beforehand for glory and so that's what he did All righty, let's go into and this thing. I don't know why This is weird They gave me an update of this software That we use and it's just it could be better. It could be better Tomorrow a thank you for the super chat. I appreciate that. Thank you so much Mona, thank you also for the super sticker. I've got to call on Raider for life because I just put him out of the kingdom And I can't do that. I'm sorry. I'm sorry He says thank you for soup chat also He says my question is if our sins are cast into the sea of forgetfulness or as far as the east is from the West Why are we held accountable for them? Here's why that's a good question. That is a good question There's consequences, but not in terms of salvation. So when he makes that statement remember when God has your sins atone for your sins are forgotten Okay, so now let's let's go back. Let's go back to the old times the old testament Let's go back to to the days of atonement and at that time The the the sins of the camp of the people are placed on the head of the scapegoat And so if you have humbled yourself looked at your soul humbled yourself and you're there and then your sins are atoned for but Let's say you had gotten to a fight with someone you started it And that guy beat you up the day before and you got a broken jaw Well, just because your sins were atoned for doesn't mean the consequence of what you did or gone Are you are you with me Cameron? Are you with me Cameron? I'm with you. Thank you, Francisco. I appreciate that. So Consequences gonna be there and can I tell you something? Can I can I tell you something ready for life? And everyone else Those consequences really aren't as bad as people make them out to be They yeah, they don't feel good, but you know what I found out from God. I Didn't like it, but I look back on like it'd be pretty cool God you you're pretty cool God how you can take my mess ups and and the punishment and Then make it a benefit What do I mean? Raise your hand in the spirit on the screen If you have done something as a Christian and it's gotten punished for it That's gonna be everybody. There are consequences. There are consequences for And what I found out is that they're they're gonna be some folks that are gonna have a problem with your sin and what you did and Might even put your consequences on blast. I Look what happened to you this happened to you that happened to you You you cheated and now you divorce or you did that and then you lost your job You you did this and you went to jail whatever They're gonna be those folks are gonna laugh at you what we're not worried about them But there are some people that see how you behave you you you how you behave with the consequences With your held up high knowing that still heavens your destination and somebody else in that same condition That's not where that's that's where you used to be that wants to get where you are moving ahead They give glory to God Just like some of you guys are going through your consequences right now some of you guys are in the middle of your storm right now You can turn and look to somebody who has gone through the same storm or you've read about someone who's gone for those same storms And you're like, you know what I know a way out so That's right when Lord after I'm forgiven Why don't you just fix this because I don't I want to what does he say? I'm gonna cause every all of those things that are happening good or bad to work out for the good of those who love me and Guess what? It's not just you It's other people It's other people that I'm also gonna use your pain your problems your mess ups to work out for other people's good as well Now that's a blessing So there's gonna be some folks is gonna get a blessing you don't even know it But they got a blessing because of you So all righty, I got your camera. I got your camera. I'm gonna get you Okay, wait a second. What if I feel like God has taken his okay? I see what's gonna happen here I see what's gonna happen here. We're gonna be here for a while. I was hoping I was hoping This is gonna be a shorter one, but it's just not it's just not What if I feel like God has taken his hand off me and I have been extremely Excuse me down on myself lately Single dad raised my little girl cuz wife be doing 18 years in prison, but I'm not feeling that is hard That is rough, but guess what God thought about you my man Now you can let God down if you want to and you can give the devil the glory Because God feels as though you are strong enough. I know you are strong enough. It's gonna be rough Now I Don't know why I just had this feeling. I'm not a prophet. I brought I'm not a prophet I don't even play one on TV and I did not stay and I had a lay in express But I just feel like There's something about you So I could talk to you like I talked to like I talked to to a real dude How about that? Can I talk to you like a real dude? It's supposed to be tough It is supposed to be tough It's supposed to be The easy stuff is for the weak people that's not you So you keep taking care of a little baby yours you show her what a man supposed to look like But let me ask you all a question. Have you ever got past a temptation or defeated something and after you did you felt good about it? Man, look at me that you wanted to pet you on the back because it was hard, but I made it through Well, what ends up happening is and we do this in prison because once you get you set a routine done Get you set a routine and as you're making through the routine one day has passed two days past five days past a year has passed five years and past and so forth But you're gliding because you you know how to handle it So you build you build up a tolerance for hard things Just like working out Working out now you got some heavy weight up. It used to be that you couldn't bench press 20 pounds You couldn't be you could bench press the bar and that was it Then someone started adding some weight and that weight would just come back down and there'd be a little bit of a little bit Well, what happens is this the way muscles are made what happens is you get these little micro tears little microscopic tears in your muscles The defeats are fine the the weight is fine even though for the moment you can't hold it The weight is fine because it's doing something for you as you get these microscopic tears and on Monday today You're struggling that weight goes down but you were pushing and Your muscles pushing as best as could but it could not and there were some microscopic tears You couldn't see because they're microscopic tears, but what do you do? You make plans to go back out and keep doing because you're not gonna quit you are not going to quit because again the week quit That's not you you are called an overcomer according to John. He says that all of us that believe We have been made overcomers because we've been born again and God caused us so guess what your Spiritual DNA is that you are an overcomer. So what are you gonna do? I'm making plans to go back out there and get it back underneath that weight again What happens though in the meantime in the meantime? I have refreshed myself by putting in the right nutrients the right food Protein in the physical sense that protein is going to go into your body your body's gonna break it down And you know what's gonna happen? This little micro tear right here is microscopic, but that protein goes and fills it up So next thing you know instead of this little hole right here. It's filled up with muscle That's how your muscle gets bigger and bigger and bigger And then so one day you decide because you're lifting up this weight that you couldn't get before that you fail before it went up And so what ends up happening is this how God works in us, too When you when you get past something that you failed previously, what do you want? Put some more weight on Give me some more weight so I can keep going and I can keep and guess what the next weight You might make it you might struggle you might fail But you don't care because you recognize the last victory you're gonna keep doing it and you're gonna keep doing Next thing, you know, you're bench pressing 250 next, you know, you're bench pressing 300 you bench pressing 350 Next you know you can carry it all next thing You know you taking care of your little girl half piece of cake because guess what when the lady comes home Because you know you don't know you don't know when God is gonna open the door You don't my wife sitting here With babies to take care of and I'm doing 20 and my outdate is 2025 My outdate is 2025 You hear me. Are you listening for a given disciple? My outdate is 2025. Let me look at my look at my iPhone For a second my outdate is 2025 today's date is Friday September 8th 2024 So I still got a year left to be in prison But I'm here I told you before They put me in my official designation is two things one the the cares act and then they also added on to that they added Oh, what is it the second chance of the fur? I don't know they added something and then something else and something else and so I end up getting more time I don't get more time off But remember I told you guys before Even though it's official the cares act for COVID. I got put in to come home before COVID kicked in How in the world I got put in at the end of January to come home How's that when that COVID wasn't a thing? Cuz God So at some point in time, I don't know how it's gonna happen I don't know how it's gonna happen But you just what you do is you make sure that you are ready For whatever God brings your way because if he's ready to play I was having this conversation with you with before you guys with John with Vance Johnson He's been wide received for the Denver Broncos. He might be on list. I'm not sure but I Told him kind of a football story. Maybe you football guys get this You run your route the quarterback drops back and he goes through his progression The wide receiver has to make his way through the defense and he's got to get to an open spot He's got to run it and be ready To get to his spot Just in case the quarterback throws him a ball now previous to that all those weeks and even months of just practicing Practicing to run this route and to get open get open So game bait the ball is right there if you get open and the ball is there. What must you do catch the ball? So that's what all this is doing. It's not just for you or for me. It's for everyone else. Yes I do scuba love me some football So brother you just keep you keep doing what what God knows about you You keep doing the things that God knows you can do as a matter of fact keep doing What the devil knows about you keep being what what the devil because it's never should be that guys that the devil knows Or has more respect about us our strength and we do Why do you think he why do you think he attacks us? He's not gonna waste the big but the big guns on the small people He's gonna he's gonna waste the big stuff. He's gonna use the big stuff on the big people. So there you go Alrighty guys, let me go to the next one. Let's go to the next one I do love some football talk on it anybody see the game last night Let me go to these questions How important Duncan asked how important is water baptism? Well, it doesn't save it doesn't save Okay But what it is it's an outward expression of What's taking place on the inside inside you might get baptized there might be one other person in the room still baptism But wait a second only one only one or two of people saw it or one other person saw it Does that mean anything? No, no This is you making a public affirmation a public declaration However, you make a better public declaration in your life that you live because you go to the light of the world Now the real baptism that saves you is the baptism of the spirit Which is what john says i'm baptizing you guys with water, but there's one's going to baptize you with the holy spirit Amen Duncan said this is Did samson commit suicide? I guess technically if you want to look at that that way, yeah But now the bible the bible never ever calls suicide a sin so uh But wait a second core you have to repent after you commit a sin Well, then you're in trouble because I promise you you don't you don't repent after every sin I I can promise you that So, uh, yeah technically yeah, he did he did But he killed more During that than he did at any point in time in his life Gabby is it wrong for men to wear earrings? I would say this doing things that pertain to women that again, it's cultural and so nowadays It's not The culture now today now today is that men do some men do wear earrings now. I've not you know Uh, as a matter of fact, there was a time where certain earrings were the thing There were times where a man a man would wear Uh a dangling one earring on one one ear Y'all remember some of the kung fu days? So, um Or the uh bruce lee roe days Or the breaking breaking days break dancing days You have one clip on earring on your earlobe that hangs down when it had and listen It had to be on your left ear Could be on your right ear That would that would that was to signify Gay men would wear theirs on their right ear Straight men would have it on their left ear and it had to be a certain kind of earring It used to be there was a time where it had to be a uh just uh a hoop a loop A small one could be one of these big dangling ones The culture changes and so Is it a sin for a man to wear earrings? No, it's not a sin Now it's a sin if he does things that that pertain to a woman now personally me I wouldn't wear one That's just me Y'all can blame michael jordan He may he made it fashionable for a lot of for a lot of men So Will the church address this gender war or ignore it? Well, I'll say this I address it. I think it's a huge. I think it's a huge problem But let me just say this by and large the church Many in the church or the assembly Are going to ignore it There are going to be some that's going to address it and some that are going to ignore it I would say those that ignore it and succumb to it You need to go ahead and begin looking elsewhere to to frequent to be at Because if that's what they're gonna if the and it's clear there are standards or should I say there are qualifications for leadership and If the church isn't in going to adhere to clearly defined standards, well then what else are you going to start uh Of scouting to what what else you're going to start allowing in and so unfortunately And let me just say this guys That won't be the the end of it all they're going to be other things that we're just going to succumb to The fact of the matter is we are going to let a lot of ungodly things happen more and more and more and more and more And more So unfortunately, it is what it is Okay Dray Wagner says my information about marriage was bad I'm not going to check the conference. I'm not going back to check the comments But if you want to enlighten me then then fine Is that 53 6 says and they and they brought him near before him Now my question is who are the they in the verse? Angels possibly so let's go there Daniel 7 7 13 Why I'm saying Daniel I was in Daniel 7 earlier today. I don't know why Oh Cory I'm sorry type of the wrong spot Daniel 7 13 Oh, I know why because I was looking at the son of man I'm going to be covering something that somebody said about the trinity Uh real soon guys want to cover this person this person literally arguing with themselves a well-known person Who has two different opinions? And I don't know if he's if he's caught it But anyway, I saw in the night visions and behold one like the son of man came With the clouds of heaven and came uh to the ancient days and they brought him near before him Now, uh, let's see what I'm doing is I'm I'm sorry, I'm I'm I'm reading the uh the Hebrew. So yeah, this is this is definitely Wait a second No, hold on. Wait a second. What am I missing? Let me read this again. And he came I saw and To the ancient of the days came to And before okay Uh, so that was let's read let's read it in English. I'm sorry. Let me go back to to uh, okay The the vei is not really there. That's what I was looking at the vei is not really there. Um Now when I when I do Hebrew I go slower than I do in greek the vei is not there But the reason why the vei is implied there Um Because the thousand thousand minutes before him and 10 000 times 10 000 stood before him The judgment was set and the books were open I beheld then because of the voice of the great words which the horns bake I beheld even till the beast was slain and his body destroyed and given to the burning flame as concerning the rest of the beast They had the dominion taken away yet their lives were prolonged for a season and time I saw a night vision behold one like the son of man came with the clouds of heaven and came to the ancient days And they brought him near before him and there was given him dominion and glory and a kingdom of all people nations So who's the vei? Probably the the thousands of whatever that minister before him which would be these angelic hosts So that and say specifically it really it really doesn't say specifically so um Be hard to say conclusively, but I would say It's something that's really all it could be. It's really all it could be So and it's not that they that they're actually ushering him. That's really kind of the way It is really more usher not necessarily. Hey come on in here. Jesus. No, that's not what was happening Okay, let's answer some more questions Is declaring the word promises of god over your life in prayers biblical since uh, you have stated we can't decree to Okay, it depends on what you are declaring what you're promising Okay, if it's something that that's I I'm declaring because I'm a believer that I will be in heaven Hey, there's nothing wrong with that. I'm an overcomer now to what degree You can this the wrong with declaring that you're an overcomer because the bible Specifically it says that you are but now overcoming what does that mean that you're going to overcome every single obstacle in your life? No, that's not what that means Do you have the ability to declare or to call things that are not that are as though they were you don't have that ability either Because what ends up happening is if you think that if you do that then what ends up happening is Surely when you become disappointed When you become disappointed you are going to Um suffer some doubts. Maybe even blame god blame yourself. Who knows? Uh, do you check your inbox? No On messenger. Listen if you send me stuff on messenger That's the the least effective way Uh to send me stuff Now if you're a moderator You can just text it to me Miss ma'am But yeah Every now and then I will go because I forget about messenger. I really I never use messenger The reason why I don't use messenger is because messenger is how it was a thousand two thousand people that I had on facebook And then my facebook got hacked. It was through messenger So I don't I'm hesitant to even mess with messenger Okay, more questions More some people use came Um that he left and came back with the wife as proof that god created other people in the beginning of an adamity I'm still learning the bible. What verse do they get that from none? They don't get it from any verse, but they just kind of they they post now It's not a it's not a silly hypothesis because the question is where did kane get his wife? He's having a conversation with god and god to say i'm kicking you out. You got to go And then he starts talking about what if other people see me And what's who these other people I thought it was just I thought it was just kane and abel No The bible now the way the way that it's written It's written Because we read it a certain way just like we would in english that After that it says that adam adam knew his wife and they had sons and daughters And so we think that it's it's speaking chronologically and it's not Because you'll see matter of fact if you think if you think that everything is written chronologically Then you're going to have a problem with genesis one and genesis two Because genesis two is not chronological to genesis one genesis two and genesis one They give different statements about the same thing. There's a summary more detail on some things in genesis one same thing in genesis two And so when he says that adam you've had sons now there was one that that was given to replace Abel that was set but they weren't the only ones they had sons and daughters So where did kane get his wife? And since we know that eve is the mother of everyone Including at that time that kane would go out and get a wife since eve is the mother of all the all those that are living The bible is clear it needs should be clear since she's the mother of all living That kane could only have gotten his wife from one of two either a sister or a niece We don't know how long this took place how long this was But that that's all that that's the only place that he could have got his wife from so In the image of god Infer's a lot, but considering the incarnate jesus appeared man angel Uh The image of the invisible god We're not his glory fair to say, but we are indeed in image. Yes. Yes Um in terms of the form because remember I told you the two words that I use In genesis let us make man and our image according to our likeness the according to our likeness part That's according to our or the hour when I say hour there function An image is form how so doing what god wants us to do We are the ones that are supposed to Put forth bring forth god's rule on the planet now. We do we do a horrible job of that Uh, and so now we are not in his glory as you said definitely fair to say But we are in his image in terms of our form is to is to do so is to Because remember god didn't have he didn't have two hands He didn't have two eyeballs and so forth Even though the bible uses anthropomorphic language To signify before his face and so forth or that he under his wing That he didn't have feathers. He didn't cast a shadow although he could But uh, yeah, your your statement is correct. Yeah Who was the last apostle? John or paul? Well the last one alive Was john the last one to be brought in was paul According to paul's even paul's words himself Question do you I'm not sure the question. Do you know how much troll farms interfere with christian comment sections? Disturbs, you know, I don't know. I don't know. I get your question now. Are you saying there are people out there? There are troll farms that they have an interest in stirring up trouble on christian christian channels I can imagine I mean What else would the devil want to do? I can I I got your cg. I can imagine that I can imagine that um There's been some stuff lately. I'm not going to say specifically but there's been some stuff lately about some people who have been apparently Buying views and buying subscribers Which is really stupid Which is really stupid um Because youtube is gonna get you YouTube is eventually going to find out Uh YouTube is eventually going to see hey, wait a second. Hold up. They can they got big brain computers there They'll they'll eventually figure it out and I'm not going to tell you the name of these people These are some well known channels that just Boomed it's like wow what happened I just personally thought there's a whole bunch of uh false heat you're going on folks eating it up, but Uh, I was doing something the other day and the guy was was was covering this and he's He was he was going down the little deal and showing how youtube was taking away views And I'm talking about to the tune of millions of views Hundreds of thousands of views like Why would you why would you do that? Thank you, Michael. May I appreciate that? Thank you for your support I don't know what's gonna happen that there might be some channels Uh Some channels that gets somebody get suspended or demonetized or what have you I think I think what what you have happened here on on youtube is a pretty good deal I think it's a pretty good deal Here's why I say that You have a platform where you can sit and cover Bible topics You have a platform where you can sit and really talk about anything you can talk about Food you can talk about exercise. You can talk about cars. You can talk about the bible and If you just do it right, uh, youtube is gonna run ads no matter what that's gonna happen Even They're one of the channels monetized or not They're gonna run ads no matter what and all you have to do is just simply just do your you know Just be faithful what have you But if you try to you know kind of subverting and and and go behind and and buy views and buy They will get you And and I've seen some people get put off permanently And I don't know how they enforce the permit How could they stop me from coming back? I don't know but And so I know there's all sorts of nefarious stuff happening with Electronic stuff happening. I don't I don't know because I wouldn't even know what a troll form looked like. I've heard of a troll form I wouldn't I have no idea what a troll form is Okay, cgs Good question. Could you explain? Could you explain the glory of the lord that that was shining in loop two nine? Let's go Two An angel of the lord stood before them and the glory of the lord shown around them and they were terribly frightened This was christmas stuff right here. This is christmas stuff right here Because every time I hear this story, I don't know why it's just me that it's the kid in me I think of charlie brown and linus explaining what happened on that day But the glory of the lord It's hard to determine what the glory of the lord is the doke's eye, which is the word that we see highlighted the doke's eye But this word right here This word here a pair of them bouncing This is it is a derived it's derived from the word lampo What does guys you tell me? What does lampo sound like? Sounds like a lamp right? That's what that word means Shine Perry means on or around and so there's this shining So all we know is there's this something shining this light Shining around Now what that must have looked like I would have loved to have seen it now what it was the full glory of god No, because everyone that would have seen it would have died so But I would have loved to have been there You talk about seeing something that you will never forget for the rest of your life That's that That's that Thank you, terry. I appreciate that says give me. Thank you. Give mark 9 49 by the way guys I told you guys that i'm that i'm working on my eyeballs. I've got these glasses I wear these glasses the lady said wear them every day get used to them So I wear them every day. I'm getting I'm getting used to them. So pretty soon pretty soon. I'll be able to see better Mark 9 49 For every okay Oh, okay. Well, it starts off With a four for everyone will be salted with fire salt is good, but if the salt becomes unsalty What will you make? What will you make it salty again have salt in yourselves and be at peace with one another Now this shows up in two places, but let's go. Let's go back up a little further Uh He's speaking of this judgment upon these people He's speaking of this judgment upon these people. He's speaking about them going to hell really Then after he comes that he after he covers that then he has the four Gar so for everyone will be salted With fire salt is good, but if the salt becomes unsalty with what will you make it salty again? There could be How do I put this In terms of kind of pure I don't say I don't use the term purifier But in terms of growing you developing you everyone is going to grow through go go through If I can speak correctly everyone is going to go through something That is going to Make them season if I can use that word a little bit better a little bit more off a little bit better off Everyone will be salted with fire Salt is good But if the salt becomes unsalty, what will you what will With what will you make it salty again? You cannot You cannot so he says have salt in yourself And be at peace with one another in other words. What is the salt matter of fact? Let me let me do this I could This is the past that I've heard different debates on let me let me pull up a commentary Let me go pull up a commentary and read this Okay Here's a commentary This is by another bible knowledge commenters from this is John Grasmick who was dead by the way This enigmatic statement unique to mark is difficult to interpret about 15 possible explanations have been suggested This is one of these harsh ones because the funny thing is is he also uses terminology of salt losing his saltiness Where have we heard that before well? Jesus makes his statement in in matthew 5 when he's speaking of Us as believers being the salt of the world and what happens if we lose our saltiness Then we should be tossed out and trampled underfoot So an explanatory as he says an explanatory for gar which the word for And the word fire linked the verses to 43 and 48 Everyone may be explained Everyone may be explained in one of three ways it could refer to every unbeliever who enters hell They will be salted with fire in the sense that as salt preserves food So they will be preserved throughout the eternity of fire. That's one a second one is everyone could refer To every disciple the word everyone So the word everyone could refer to every disciple living in this hostile world that they will be seasoned with salt Uh disciples living sacrifices will be seasoned with the purifying fires of trial Uh out. I'm sorry then he says the trials will purge out What is contrary to God's will and preserve what is consistent with it? And then the third option is everyone could refer to Every person in general all will be salted with fire In a time and manner appropriate to the relationship with Jesus for non-believers The uh preserving fire of final judgment for disciples the refining fire of present trials and suffering The last few seems affordable and I think so too. It's kind of what I was getting Every everybody's going to have some sort of fire. They're going to go through Everybody let me take some screen Everybody is going to have some sort of fire. They're going to go through again. This is difficult because it's just It seems oddly placed Now he says it links with it links with 43 and 44. So let's go back to 40 43 through 44 Let's read the whole thing If your hand causes you to stumble cut it off It is better for you to enter life crippled than having your two hands to go to hell Into into the unquenchable fire where their worm does not die and the fire is not quenched eternally If your foot causes you to stumble cut it off It is better for you to enter life lame than having your two feet be cast into hell Where the worm does not die verse 27 If your eye causes you to stumble throw it out It is better for you to enter the kingdom of god with one eye than having two eyes to be cast into hell Where the worm does not die and the fire is not quenched Four so obviously there's four is is linking to what was stated. Everyone will be salted with fire Who's the every one? Salt is good But if the salt becomes unsalty And I can see why they make the point Salt is good, but if the salt becomes unsalty with what will you make it salty again? I can see why they say well this maybe this is pointing towards them preserving preserving them throughout hell for fire I can see that But it really makes sense because typically typically salt is used matter of fact Let's pull this up. Let's go to this passage Matthew five Typically when we see salt how is salt used salt is used to bring about a positive Reform in someone's life Let's see Matthew five Here it is No, I'm sorry wrong one wrong one. I'm pushing too many buttons. Okay. Here we go Matthew five third Where's it at for five or two? Okay Let's put on the screen You are the salt of the earth If the salt becomes tasteless, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything Except to be thrown out and trampled on the foot. So he says how can this salt be made salty again? Well, what was it stated over here? Salt is good, but if the salt becomes unsalty with what will it be made salty again now This is why I kind of prefer I'm kind of leaning with the last with the last example that our job as believers is to Be salt to bring people Christ Um now in whatever shape from a fashion it's going to be I have no idea how God is going to use us to be salt to other people Whether we are giving the gospel whether we are rebuking someone whether we are correcting someone whether we're loving someone But if we lose the very thing the very the very thing that God is using us to bring people to christ That's us losing our saltiness same thing here But if the salt becomes unsalty what will With what will you make salty again have salt in yourselves and be at peace with one another? So I think this is really just saying Make sure as a believer you be a believer that you have the spirit in you and that you be salt to the to the world That's really the only way that I can that I can see that It's a weird. It's one of those statements like man. I you wish there was more to it Um, but it's just a hard one. This is no way around it. So um Matter of fact, there's uh As I'm moving down this commentary There's a whole bunch more that we would be here forever to read awful All this was have salt in yourselves points the disciples need to have salt, which is good Not worthless within themselves. Okay. So this this commentary the second one is saying what I just said That we need to be salt to the world so Hopefully, you know, you know what dawg on it. I tell you what I'm gonna do Because now you got me wonder I'll tell you what I'm gonna do. Where is much work of paper? Make a video about it. How about that? How about that becomes a video? Why not? Why not put this software to work? mark Okay, I'm gonna cover this Give me it'll give me something to do over the weekend. How about that? It'll give me something to do. It's gonna be a boring video I could promise you that it's gonna be a boring video. It's not gonna be one of those videos where It's going to get 400,000 views But I want I want to cover it. I like a challenge. So anyway All right, let's go back to some more questions Thank you, Steve for the super sticker. I appreciate that Can a Christian become a rapper? Or actor While while glorifying god, well Sure A christian can do anything in the arts Just make sure you're glorifying god Make sure what you're doing Because what happens a lot of times is people do stuff. It's not just it's just it's not just rap or acting or anything like that or singing You're good with god until you get what you want it and then god is he's on the wayside and then you start succumbing and you start compromising That happens All too often That happens too often and so Keep yourself before the lord You are more than welcome to go out and rap and to do whatever you you actually are you absolutely are there is no Godly genre. It's not that a rap is an ungodly genre something that country's ungodly genre or R&B or whatever it's What that particular genre or that particular Song or movie or what have you what is promoting? But you keep yourself pure you keep yourself now the problem is you're going to have to encounter people who are ungodly But then again, if you work at at&t You're going to encounter folks that ungodly if you work for the dnv if you work for a school district You're going to encounter people that are ungodly and so in this case how about this terry you be salt and light in that place So i'm trying to get a buddy of mine who is a fairly well-known rapper Who happened to be in prison with me He happened to be in prison with me and he he wants to uh, he's a rapper I'm I'm I'm trying to get with him I want to see where his heart is and see if I can Maybe not maybe maybe maybe not not sure Maybe maybe not not sure Does axe bj says does axe 751 debunk irresistible grace. Let's go to axe everyone axe 751 You men who are stiff neck and uncircumcised in the heart and ears are always resisting the holy spirit You are doings, uh, just as your fathers did No, no, here's why The key to that is what does he call them stiff neck and uncircumcised in heart So irresistible grace would would would naturally mean that the person has had their heart regenerated And now they have this irresistible draw to come these people have not had their heart circumcised all right, um What should we do To help a sister in christ who is learning more or leaning more on experiences Than the bible doctrine and they refuse to seek any godly counsel. There's nothing there's nothing you can't do Let me just tell you this charise Here's the problem and I learned this must I learned this I I take it back. I'm still learning this because sometimes you you bend over backwards. Have you ever Have you ever try to help someone that you just can't help? I think we all do that. I have tried to help people some people publicly some people privately And some everybody can't be helped It is what it is and it could be A myriad of different areas in this case you bring up someone, um, doctrinal issues Some folks just will not listen Some folks just will not listen and so all you can do is all you can do Sometimes it's going to be god that's going to have to intervene Yeah, you might even find out Unfortunately that that dear sister in christ might not be in christ That's now it's a burden because you want that person to be saved You want you might love that person wanting to grow and so forth But again, all you can do is all you can do Where it really becomes hard is if it's a loved one and you're trying to you're trying to get a loved one to Be right, but there's only so much you can do you are we are limited in our power We are limited and so there's only so much we can do So sometimes you have to just pray for lord give me the wisdom Know when to throw my hands up and just step back and let god handle it because again All you can do is just be godly before them Be doctrinally sound Because typically I shouldn't say typically but a lot of times people will see you and you're walking So you know what I admire that about that person let your light shine Let people see your good works and then they will end up glorifying god How do we handle being more mature and sound and understanding than people who claim to have Been in church their whole lives without sounding kind of sending your holy that okay How how do you how do you behave in a more mature fashion without acting like you are better than them? Well, sometimes it can be difficult You just have to be as humble as you possibly can Sometimes you do have to watch how you say it, but let's be honest Sometimes you do need to be poignant and and to the point and direct and say listen And this is where the you know me saying look here missy poo Look at young fella. Sometimes you have to do that If you are now, let's say shiners, let's say you're older than the person you're talking to well, guess what? There's a benefit to being older and if you could use that to help someone in god. Well, then they hate man But they're but now if the person's new in christ or they're trying to come to christ, what have you You do want to handle them sometimes with kid gloves. You want to be godly um In the way you're doing things you want to You want to move lightly you want to consider that they might not be as strong Just because the person acts though that they're strong and talks it doesn't mean they actually are There's a lot of people. There are a lot of people who act Talk and they even think they're strong and are not But guess what god does have concern for them to and he will use them. He will use you um He will use you to help that person Sometimes though you might have to help them in the way that you don't want to That's where sometimes the wisdom comes in where you can't Deal with that person as rigidly as you want to so By the way, I see a person just got kicked out for asking about flat earth I'm never going to talk about the flat earth stuff. Never ever ever ever You think we're on flat earth I can't help you All I can say is bless your heart and then move on If I make all the flat earth is on the planet upset. Hey, man Hey, man, what are you seeing? What's the difference between I'm not I'm not going to a big discussion on this But what's the difference between speaking in tongues and prophesying? Uh, sometimes there's nothing Sometimes there is no difference The statement that he makes in chapter 14 verse 1 and verse 5 of 1st Corinthians Is that I would I wish that you would speak in these languages in order that you would Prophecy the goal of every spiritual gift is to bring about revelation But this is a speaking gift And so the goal of this speaking gift is to bring about revelation now the gift of prophecy Versus the gift of tongues are two different things But this uh, but in order to bring about revelation or prophecy, which is what prophecy is In order to do so it can be the same thing Prophecy is to bring about prophecy if that makes sense prophecy is to bring about revelation So I just saw what shari says she had a hunger for you're pregnant. Well praise god praise god Uh, do you know what you're having shari? Do you know if you're having a boy or a girl? I pray you're having a boy. I hope I hope it's a ballhead boy that comes out a ball You have a ballheaded boy with glasses that come out And that'd be cool. How how cool would that be? If it comes out with glasses, listen, if your baby comes out with glasses something's wrong Something's something's wrong Ballheaded part. That's okay. But with the glasses part. Yeah Start praying But nobody you know what you're having. Do you know if you having to wear a girl? Hopefully not bald I don't know. I don't know uh samurai sometimes these kids come out with a with a head full of hair So my mother told me the best hair I ever had was when I came What I came out with after that it was downhill I say a 14 16, please explain this regarding Uh, regarding this, uh, oh, I mean, okay, let's go. I say a 14. I say, I know. I know where you're going This issue. This is where you would see They they bet they that see the wait a second Oh I know what happened here. Hold on. I gotta fix this guys. I gotta fix this I was looking up something earlier and I accidentally put in the king james version Can't do that If I use the king james version, it's going to make my moderator Chest champ too happy. Can't do that I was wondering why I said the anyway those who see you will gaze at you They will ponder over you saying is this the man who made the earth tremble who shook kingdom? So the question is who is this speaking of? Who is this about is this about satan? Hmm Or is this about an actual man? Well, let's go to the very top of this I don't know. I just pushed a button. Uh, where is it? Where is it? Where is it at? Well, kory I'm trying to find the right the right verse good. I won't read the whole thing But I may have to read the whole thing Anyway, no, you know, I'm not gonna read the whole thing Uh, this refers to matter of fact You know, let's start reading in verse Verse three And it will be in the day when the lord gives you rest from your pain and turmoil and harsh service In which you have been enslaved that you will take up this taunt Against the king of babelon and say how the oppressor has ceased and how fury has ceased The lord has broken the staff of the wicked The separate of rule of the separate rulers Which used to strike the people in fury with unceasing smoke which subdued the nations in anger With unrestrained persecution the whole earth is at rest and is quiet They break forth into shouts of joy even now listen listed the words being used A lot if this is just one person, right? Even the cypress trees rejoice over you and the cedars of lebanon are saying since you were laid low No treater comes upon us again Against us. I'm sorry. Shio from beneath is excited over you to meet you when you in that a bad statement Hell is happy to meet you the grave is happy to meet you It arouses for you the uh, the spirits of the dead all the leaders of the earth It raises all the kings of the nations from their thrones They will all respond and say to you even you have been made weak as we You have become like us your pomp and the music of your heart Uh have been brought down to shio maggots are spread out as your bed beneath you and worms are your covered How you have fallen from heaven Old star of the morning son of the dawn You have been cut down to the earth You who have weakened the nations, but you said in your heart I will send to heaven I will praise my throne above the stars of god and I will sit in the mount of assembly In the recess of the north and I will ascend above the heights of the cloud and I will make myself like the most high Now does it sound like a man or does this sound like the devil? Well, this is where you have some of these verses have a double meaning Speaking of Babylon, but ultimately who is behind this? It is satan. By the way, I think I've covered before Where he calls him the the star of the morning verse 12 How you have fallen from heaven old star of the morning son of the dawn and the question is is he calling The devil is he the morning star because Jesus is also called the morning star And he's not it's two different words So I just want once you guys understand that he's not giving satan the same title As Jesus as the morning star there are two different words And so when you go and look at you can't see them in Hebrew But when you go and look at the greek septuagint the word this used here for the morning star is different Than the greek word for the morning star for jesus and so they're not the same they're not the same thing But he's clearly speaking of it's a double meaning speaking of The king of Babylon as well as satan because some of some of this stuff has nothing to do with king of Babylon But it's a double meaning and so ultimately who's behind the king of Babylon? Well satan Okay, let's answer some more questions I'm actually going on and I thought I was gonna go What is your view cori? On where exactly we go after death before the rapture or resurrection we go to heaven as spirit and Then put back into the body. Okay. Here's my belief This is my belief And I'm going to get ready for a bunch of folks to disagree, but it's okay. It's okay I believe that if I were to die right now or if you steven were to die right now Or any one of you believers in the lord were to die right now You would go to be with the lord immediately to be after from the body is to be present the lord in this Dispensation now we would go and to be with the lord if we are his okay When Again, this is my belief in the rapture. So the way this works in my view Somebody's gonna be upset with me. Cory. I don't believe in rapture. That's okay. Fine. Fine. We're not gonna have that fight today We'll just say in my view the way this works for me The way the rapture works when he when he's bringing back these these bodies That means these bodies these human beings who have passed on he brings them with him Their bodies will be caught up now how this works don't know Because this is where god is awesome where they get a glorified body that's going to be caught up to them And then those of us Who are alive and remained Will also be caught up and as we as we're brought up we will take on take off this immortal body I mean this this mortal body and put on immoral by immoral immortal body Take off this corruptible body and put on this incorruptible body And so the first to receive their glorified body will be those that come with him now How's that work if the person who was cremated or they were buried or A bone was over here in this part of the world. Who knows if they they they were blown to bits There's all sorts of diabolical ways that people can die and their bodies are But god Can put them back together some sort of way. So I don't know how that's going to work. But that's how that's what I believe So hope that helps This is going to be easily the comment that's going to get the I mean the statement's going to get the most comments afterwards I I can almost promise that Plus the flatter comment too So Yeah, I'm I'm almost I'm almost through monkey moves. I'm almost through but remember Do y'all remember the good old days when we used to go two and a half hours? And I would literally I would you have no idea how drained I would be after that So anyway, my moderates did a pretty good job of getting me hate. All right, Cory. Go move quickly The good old days when Lisa would tell me what she'd give me the clock. She'd give me the time Oh, hold on. Let me answer this. Let me answer this. I saw a youtube video And it stated that Paul was teaching different than the teaching of Jesus. They were saying paul didn't Teach as jesus did about how yeah When you when you see those reject those paul is not giving a disparate a different gospel He is not everything that he says lines up remember Who paul is talking to well who paul's primary audience is paul is a an apostle to the gentiles The other apostles are primarily apostles to the jews. Now, they do they interact with gentiles? They absolutely do peter writes a letter Knowing full well though that gentiles are also going to have this as well. So I did pay attention. Lisa. I did anyway The reason why you see some differences Is because what do the jews have to kind of get through in understanding placing their faith in christ Wait a minute for all these years We've been told about the law and to do this and this and this and this and this So now what happens? Well The apostles have to kind of put it together Get them understanding all that was doing was leading in the culmination the fulfillment of christ one fulfilling the law and bringing them into him Since on their own they wouldn't do it Well when speaking to gentiles we had no such history We didn't have to worry about kind of waiting through how the law Or the old testament how that worked with now. We didn't have to worry about that We were off doing other pagan stuff But the gospel is the same Whether it's to the jews or whether it's the gentiles you must be you must place your faith in christ I don't care if you're jewish. I don't care if you're gentile. I don't care if you're old or young Placing your faith in christ is it And how does that happen whether you jew or you gentile you must have a regenerated heart to keep you believing So thank you, brian. I appreciate the the nice words. Thank you, brian. Perry Okay, let me take one more question Which typically means around here two or three more questions, but let me take one more question By the way, did I get all the ones that I? Okay What are your thoughts on israel? Are they trying to bring peace right now and even Have some deal with by rain Israel is going to do their very best According to let's let's let's what we ought to do is interpret what's happening What's been happening and what will happen let's interpret it in light of the scriptures So what do we know the scriptures are going to say one they're going to keep their backs turned on god For the most part There will not be any peace until This lawless man shows up and then the last seven In the last seven the last um week The 70th week, no one's going to be There is going to be peace For three and a half years So now israel is going to look for it, but they won't get it until that time and at that time listen when when If you are around if we're around when true peace shows up it won't be true peace But it's going to look like true peace if we're around Then once something's happened as far as my eschatology concerns. I should have been gone But That's what's going to happen. There's going to be this true peace or this peace And then all of a sudden the deal is going to be broken halfway through the seventh And then all heck All he double hockey stick is going to break out On the world particularly on israel all right and no like I said I I say I'll take one question Which means two questions. Let me take this. This is the last question. This is the last question if there uh If there are a possibility that what god predestined for salvation after the cross was a people group gentiles rather than the selected individual Okay, this is the age old and not ageo added, but this is the issue Does god predestined a group of people? I don't know why i'm doing this like as a group of people. So does he predestined a group of people? Or does he predestined individual people? Well, here's the problem with that if it's a group of people. Not saying that's what you believe, but if it's a group of people The problem is doesn't god know who the group of people are He literally knows who the group of people are plus In doing so in predestining them He has to give that group of people the holy spirit And he's not given a group of people the holy spirit. He's given individual people the holy spirit And so the only way that it can work This is a way of people seeing the writing on the wall seeing the scriptures Seeing the really the greek of it or just a grammar of it how it's laid out particularly in ephesians 1 that he has uh chosen or elected some people Then they have to say well, we'll see what yeah, but what he had chelt what he had chosen what he elected Was either jesus to be the vehicle so long as you get in him Or a group a people group But the problem also is this the rgc rjc Is that not only is it just the gentiles that will be elected some some gentiles There are some jews that are going to be elected because paul makes his this point in roman's 1911 That the jews that are going to be saved are going to be those that he elects as well of his own choosing So It is individual people who may happen to be part of a people group But it's individual people that god looks and sees i'm choosing this person So thank you.
