 So many people have watched the video have heard a bit here heard a little bit of something there Kind of not really paid attention may have even made a reaction video may have put a lot of different comments and have thoroughly and completely Totally, I don't know how many objectives I can throw in this have just missed the point People want to know how do I know if I'm safe? How do I know if I'm not safe? What's required to be saved? Do I have to do something that gets saved once I am safe? What do I do? Let me just make it abundantly clear and there is not one Christian with a Bible who can read That's going to be able to refute this You are not saved. You are not a Christian if and I've seen people before I even give the answer I've seen people a few people in the chat especially early on someone said everyone someone said in the chats Immediately once the once the thumbnail went up and it was open to start dialoguing inside the the live stream chat said that Eternal life is a free gift. Stop adding works. How about this start paying attention? Start paying attention Stop come what happens is this? Men who tend to be lovers of themselves, which means their lovers of their own ideas Hold a position and think that anything that might threaten that position is automatically wrong pay attention and listen Nobody on the planet No one has ever been no one ever will be a Christian. You are not safe if You do not love God Period end of discussion Now I would love to see the people that would come out and say that's not true or that's Backloaded works based salvation or that's a works based salvation it is foolishness and is unbiblical and Probably a result of maybe the person's either immature or just don't know God to come back and to say That that's not true. I Would love to know is there anybody that would disagree. I Would love to hear The person make the video make the statement back up the claim bolster your point to say that that's not true That's works based salvation. No now we've said it before if people just don't listen It's like you can say it 12 times times 12 times times 12 times Yeah, but you're talking about works based salvation and This is those these people have never been to school before They've never listened to the teacher give them instructions and then they come back and say no you sense of a different The fact of the matter is there's not a person who can be a Christian if they do not love God now Love brings about salvation to us And because that salvation came to us we love we'll look at the past in just a little bit But again, it's not what you do No, so we're talking about it's the fact that you want to do and this is something that no one can measure I can't see it in you. You can't sit in me There are people who try To just love the Lord. How does that come about? Well the question then gonna be what does it mean to love? What is the definition of love? I've given a definition before and I think this works I think this works whether you're talking about in an amorous relationship. Let's say a man and a woman whether it is in a biblical sense The word love means just every time you see the word love Exchange that word so that you can find a good meaning for it Matter of fact, you can apply it to when a mother loves a child when a man loves a woman like the song says Love is like this Replace the word love with the word commit committed committing commitment every variation Because you tell me somebody that love something is not committed to I'll show you a person. It's not loving Tell me that God was not so committed to us that he gave his only son Tell me he didn't do so. Tell me. That's what love is Love is born and shown out in a commitment now. How's that look to you? It varies from person to person from thing to thing and That's the point and if you disagree with me, let's just go to the Bible By the way, I want to just go ahead and start off with the hardest-hitting passage about a person not loving at all If you do not love look what he says. I don't say I didn't say this is Paul Paul says Chapter 16 of 1st Corinthians verse 22. He says if anyone does not love the Lord He is to be a cursed Maranantha Doesn't get clearer than that. If you do not love the Lord you are a cursed Know if ands buts about it you figure out how that shows up in your life But if you don't love the Lord and what does love what's a good way commit? Commitment committed. Yeah, if you don't love the Lord Paul says you are committed. Let's go back to let's give a story Shall we how about a story? How about a how about a story? from Jesus Jesus was invited to a Pharisees house a Pharisee by the name of Simon and he's greeted by some woman and The Pharisees and the other people they are there they're bothered by this woman, but Jesus seeing if they're bothered. He asked a question chapter 7 Let's start in verse 39 39 Now when the Pharisee that being Simon who had invited him saw this he said to himself if this man were a prophet He would know who and what sort of person this woman is who is touching him that she is a sinner There's the point right there that she's a sinner now look look what Jesus says He says Simon I have something to say to you. He says say a teacher a moneylender had two debtors 1509 and the other 50 when they were unable to repay he graciously forgave them both So which of them will love him more? Which of them will love him more what he says? Simon answers that I suppose the one whom he forgave more and he said to him that as Jesus says you have judged correctly Turning toward the woman he said to Simon. Do you see this woman? I entered your house You gave me no water for my feet, but she has wet my feet with her tears and wiped them with her hair You gave me no kiss, but she since the time I came in has not ceased to kiss my feet You did not anoint my head with oil, but she has anointed my feet with perfume for this reason I say to you her sins and notice he indicates he makes something known about her sins He says her sins which are which are many He says her sins which are many Have been forgiven for she loved much, but he who was forgiven little loves little You see his point his point is people who say they love show they love Let me say I need to put on a t-shirt people who say they love will show they love Now I understand that some people just want to just are you fight fuss and have a point of contention If you have a contention about what I'm saying You are childish immature don't know the scripture or may not be saved Is that biting is that cutting is that to the point? It should be it should be because again Let's just put up what he just said what Paul said he said again He put it on the screen again. He says if anyone does not love the Lord. He is to be accursed If you are a born-again believer You're only a born-again believer because one the Bible says God first loved you. How do I know so well? Let's go to first John 4 We'll come back to John again, but it's gonna first John 4 look what he says starting in first seven He says beloved Let us love one another for love is from God and everyone who loves is what born of God and this word that we've talked about before the word for being born is from the word get am I or in this case Gigan a gig and a tie which is a perfect middle indicative So you have been born of God and we said before that those who have been born of God Those are the ones who are loving. Let's go back to what he's saying verse 8 the one who does not love Does not know God for God is loved by this the love of God was Manifested in us that God has sent his only begotten son into the world that we might live through him In this is love Not that we love God, but that he loved us and sent his son to be the perpetuation for our sins Again, that's the ultimate love. That's the ultimate sacrifice. That is true commitment Loving someone so much that you will die for them Continuing he says that he sent his son for our perpetuation for our sins verse 11 Beloved if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another If God loved us, we should love one another He says no one has seen God at any time if we love one another God abides in us if we love one another then God abides in us and his love is Perfected in us by this we know that we abide in him and he in us because he has given us his spirit Wait a minute. Did you already just say it by this we know that we let's put it back on the screen By this we know that we abide what's the issue that folks say that that those who believe in one saved always saved Do not Consider that you have to abide you have to remain well. He says that we will be remaining We are going to be matter-of-fact. Let's go ahead and look at the tense of the verb for abide or remaining By this we know that we and the word is Menoman look at the bottom left-hand corner. It is the present active indicative So we are remaining we are abiding so this is how we know that we're abiding him This is how we know that we're remaining this is how we know that we are staying in him How do we know so because folks ask the question? How do I know I'm safe? Here's how we know he just says it We know that we are in him and he is in us because he has given us his spirit We have seen and testified that the father has sent the son to be the savior of the world verse 15 Whoever confessed that he is that Jesus is the son of God God abides to him and he is God we have come to know and believe the love which God has for us God is love and the one who abides in love abides in God and God abides in him by this Love is perfected with us so that we may have a confidence in the day of judgment because he is so also We are in this world will continue There is no fear in love but perfect love casts out fear because fear involves punishment and the one who fears is not Perfected in love we love here. It is we love because he first loved us remember I said that our salvation comes as a result of his love and then our loving comes as a result of that salvation Born brought about because of he loving us. Are you with me? This is straightforward. It's pretty easy all this back and forth that folks one guy makes a video another guy Who wants to comment on video and people aren't reading the Bible this part is clear So forget this whole talk about a works-based salvation or this and that whatever forget that do you love Jesus? Do you love the Lord if you don't I always want to sing do you love me? Do you love me? Do you love me? Do you love me? Oh I'm sorry. I do recall him asking that question of Peter. It's an important question You know, you are saved if you love you cannot be saved if you do not love him Continue he loved us first and so that we love him Verse 20 if someone says I love God and hates his brother He is a liar for the one who does not love his brother whom he has seen Cannot love God whom he has seen and this is the commandment that we have heard from him That the one who loves God should love his brother Wow, that's a commandment from John from John saying that if the person says I'm so let's put back on screen I want y'all see it That the one who loves God should do what? Love his brother all the fight in the back biting of this and that and so forth that we that a lot of us Do makes you wonder. Do you really love God? It it's got to be asked do you again again? There's a lot of people I'm sorry, so I'm be somebody's gonna be upset about this Well, there's a lot of people who say they do love the Lord There's a lot of people who say that they are Christian who are not it just is what it is and the Bible is clear on that point It's clear on that point. And so how do you know only you know if you love them? I can't tell now some of the actions I might be able to see Paul does a pretty decent job I think Paul does a pretty decent job of covering this issue of love He says in 1st Corinthians 13 eight. He says love never fails Love never fails. Hmm. Does that kind of go along with the word that I said before the word commitment being committed commit commit? Love never fails It's not gonna be perfect in the way we do it Some of you all who are parents You'll mess up a thousand times trying to raise your kids But the only reason why you've messed up so many times because you keep trying so many times Why do you keep trying so many times your kids because you love your kids? There's nothing that you won't do with your kid Well, I take that probably something you won't do with your kids But a true parent who loves their kid and they're committed committed to their best Whatever that might mean does that mean they may have discipline sometimes sure Sure, tell them what they may not want to hear sure the fact of the matter is love Never fails if it's if it fails if it stops if it quits a love Hmm Jesus gave us a good example back didn't he says love never fails But if there are gifts of prophecy, they will be done away with the if there are tongues They will cease there's knowledge. It will be done away with for we know in part We prophesied apart, but when the perfect comes the partial will be done away with now. Let's go back up Diverse form when he says love is patient love is kind And is not jealous love does not brag and is not arrogant does not act I Shouldn't have said that word act. I should not have said that word act because that might connote to some people works Love does not work or do things unbecomingly love does not act and it actually is an action It's doing something love does not act unbecomingly it does not seek its own love is not provoked Does not take into account a wrong suffered love does not rejoice in unrighteousness, but righteous I'm sorry, but rejoices with the truth. It bears all things loves believes all things not every single thing you throw That's not what he's saying Love hopes all things love endures all things Yeah, let me say it again You cannot be a Christian if you do not love God if you do not love God if you don't have love for him You are not a Christian Question is now the next serious question is how do I know I love him? How do I know again? Let's go back to the verse of the hour Paul says if anyone does not love the Lord He is to be a curse Maranatha if he is to be a he is to be a curse he is to be a curse He is not my words. It's his word if you do not love the Lord. You are not saved There's no way around it Let's go to what Jesus says if you love me. Oh Dog it dog done it dog gone it now. We got a problem. We got we got a problem here, Houston We got a problem. We got we have a huge problem. We have a we have a huge problem Because I'm I'm getting ready to read Jesus with an action I'm getting ready to read Jesus with his action He says in John 14 15 if you love me you will keep my commandments now This is not speaking of the 10 commandments. It's not but it does harken back to when they asked him they asked Jesus What is the greatest commandment? He says now he's speaking about the law but it says and he said to him You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart with all your soul with all your mind This is the greatest the great and foremost commandment then he said the second It's just like it that you'd love your neighbor, which is kind of what John not not even kind of this exactly what John reiterated in first John Because if you say you love him and you don't and you don't love your brother, then you don't love him you're lying If you don't love him then you don't love him He calls you a liar. Let's go back to John not first time back to John 14 He says if you love me you will keep my commandments I will ask the Father and he will give you another helper that he may be with you forever That is a script of truth whom the world cannot receive because it does not see him or know him But you know him because he abides with you and you will be and will be in you. I Will not leave you orphans. I will come to you after a little while the world will no longer see me But you will see me because I live You will live also Continuing in that day, you will know that I am I am in my father and the father in me and I in you He who has my who he who has my commandments and keep them is the one who? Loves me. Wait a second. Wait a second. Did I did I read that right? Let me go back and read that again He who has my commandments and keeps them is the one who loves me and He who loves me will be loving my father and I will love him and will disclose myself to him Houston we got a problem cuz some folks gonna fight this. I don't care. I Do not care. I'm not gonna say that you're not a Christian if you disagree with this I'm gonna say that you are an immature Christian You are fighting the scriptures and some folks are just gonna want to find a way to fight it They just they just are it's what people want to do. You can show them that this is green And I said no it looks red to me looks black to me This is clear-cut if you put it back on the screen If anyone does not love the Lord, he is to be a curse You did I get around that? Let's go back to it. Let's finish reading. He says Jesus answered and said to them I'm sorry said to him if anyone loves me He will keep my word and my father will love him and We will come to him and make our bold with him He who he who does not love me does not keep my commandments. Wait a second. He who does not love me does not keep my words I'm sorry if you don't if you don't love him you won't keep his words if you do love him you will keep his words He literally said both of those he says if you love me you will keep my words If you don't love me you won't keep my words the biggest problem or one of the biggest problem I say when we see people who who twist the scriptures. I don't mean in unintentionally. We all can mess up I mean unintentionally. That's not what I'm talking about the intentional folks the people who will take a scripture a Passage and say it said this and we don't look this doesn't say that and when you bring to them. They still won't they'll still reject it I'm not even talking about misunderstanding a word. I'm talking about an intentional twisty, you know those guys who say that a Christian can can't have a demon though though those people Those people when we go and look at the scriptures and wait a second That's not what it says. Well, I want to talk as a matter of fact. I block you. I ban you you're dead to me If you're not keeping his word how and this is intentional if you're not keeping his word How do we know that? How can we say that you love him? Now it could be that I'm just misjudging you and you're trying to keep your word. You're just not very good at it That's fine that can happen too Because let's be honest as we grow in the word Paul says grow in the grace and the knowledge And so as we're growing that necessarily means that where we are now in Our understanding for all of us all of us who are sitting sitting watching wherever we are now All of us are going to grow in our understanding All of us are now that being stated though That necessarily means that we're not there yet and since we're not there yet That means we are going to have to also Assume and understand everyone else isn't there either and give them the same Grace the same latitude that we hope that we would get as well So there are some people there are some people who just aren't there yet. That's fine. That's fine Now we're gonna hold you accountable for what you don't know We're not gonna condemn you for it because I hope the same thing happens to me But if you love him you'll keep his word What you want to keep though and focus on are the main words The most important things those are easy. Now by the way this word for for keep is the word Terrain to ray which is from the Greek word to ray. Oh, which is to guard to keep to protect I'm I know the truth. I'm keeping this Which is what Paul said that I have kept the faith. I've kept this doc and I've kept the sound understanding This he says it on his death bed He says he who does not love me does not keep my words and the word which you hear is not mine But the father who sent me and he says these things I've spoken to you while abiding in you But the helper the Holy Spirit whom the father was into me He will teach you all things now. Let me say this Let me say this and I want to make I want to make this clear remember When when you when you are a born-again believer when you are believed. Thank you, Kay. I'll appreciate that When you are born-again believer Because we already said that those who love God have been born Of God This is where she brings us up also in John 3 and John 1 and Ezekiel and Jeremiah and Hosea Been born of God and Titus and first Peter First John have been born of God If you have been born of God Then you love him and if you love him He's gonna put the spirit in you if you've been born a God He's gonna put the spirit in you and the spirit is gonna do something What did Jesus say the spirit of God is going to do in us? He's going to want to testify Paul says the love of God come because a love of God compels us to do what to tell people One of the things that we know in you all have ever been in love Some of you all are veterans of being in love So some of you all have been in love at least 10 20 times in the last year This guy, okay, I used to be in love with this guy. I was in love with this guy I was I was in love with that girl. I was in love with that gal. I was in love with her But a lot of us been in love and When you're in love, what do you do? You didn't be honest is nope when you're in love you tell everybody not everybody, but you tell somebody When was the last time you have you ever met a person who was in love and no one knew not at least one person? Have you ever met a person who was in love and didn't tell somebody not just one person? I have never met that person. I Have never met that person Watch this watch this I'm gonna do a quick little test. Let's see. I got a quick question for you, Diana I'm gonna ask you a question. I've got a I've got a foggy idea of what the answer is going to be Diana, do you love your husband? Now I already know the answer to this question. I already know the answer to this question You know how I know the answer to this question because she's already said it Ain't nobody asked down to be talking about her kids and about her husband But you know why she does You know why she does because she loves we talk about the things we love We talk about the things we love We fight for the things we love We are down for the things we love and how do we how do we know that? How do we You just I do I love that man so much. Amen. Amen But we fight for this Genesis are you wait are you saying that you love cheesecake So you you'll fight for that cheesecake But what we like what we love we talk what space what we love we talk about You you know our love because it comes out And that's the whole thing about this relationship with with Christ If you do not love him, he's not your savior. He's not your Lord He's not your God. He has done nothing for you except for paid the price that you didn't accept Now he he loved he showed his love He showed his love by dying That's right, so some matter of fact some of you guys have been told this before Some of you men tell truth came in definitely you got you don't have to put your business out You don't have to put it in the chat But some of you men have been told by your wives your girlfriends Whoever that if you love me then you would and then dot dot dot dot something Don't tell me show me I love you man while I'm punching you in the face. I love you. I'm kicking you I love you while I'm talking about you behind your back. I love you while I'm still in front of you I love you If you don't love God, you are not a Christian if you don't love God, you are not safe That's just it has nothing to do with works. It has everything to do with Now I'm interested I'm just interested last day of the week want to know who in their right mind Disagrees with me. I Just want to know Now I'm pretty sure somebody's gonna make a video make a comment something like that I want to who in their right mind. I want to know who in their right mind is gonna disagree with me so far It's not based on me. I'm not being arrogant both from what I said I'm I am being arrogant both from the scriptures I literally read in there. There's another way to take what I just said tell me, but who disagrees with me Yeah, that's that senior kind of that that's a different kind of love That's that um that John Cougar Mellon camp were hurt so good I Love to know though No, no, listen. No, I'm not I'm not dropping the mic for for a little while now. We got a little bit of time You disagree with my coats cup, huh CG this coat this cup How I told you what Jesus said Have I told you what Jesus said CG? Oh Okay, so I'm going with chest champ somebody I hit the wrong button But have I told you the scriptures CG? The Bible says Jesus says To his disciples go into the town the next town and there you will find a cult tied that has never been ridden Bring the cult to me and when the owner asks where are you going with him? Tell him the Lord needs the cult Hallelujah. Amen Was that some was that some false teacher type Script of twisting right there But I'm looking for the person that disagrees Now if you're wise you would not disagree on this chat If you're wise Yeah, hit me. I know he does. I know he does which is fine Listen, all you got all you got to do is is hit me up a little bit different sort of a question But the fact of the matter is that he says that you will keep believing Those of us who are born of Again, if I like it how the Bible kind of fits together all fats of it If you are born of God the Bible says you are one of the overcoming ones if you are born of God You're also an overcomer and so you will as a matter of fact if you're born of God You're also remaining enduring you're continuing you keep believing. That's just it that that is what it is as well Because there's something in you that does so there's something in you that moves you once what once this love relationship takes place Once this love relationship takes place. You're gonna leave my head alone. Once this love relationship takes place the ultimate Show of force shows up the Holy Spirit and there's just something magical about it Yeah, I said Matt something awesome about what he does That don't play with it. I listen. I literally I literally said what the text says I'm not okay. I know if y'all thought that I eat that Never mind Anyway Listen if if you know what see if I'm talking about the lions That might be the problem Maybe all the lions are in heaven because they certainly there's certain on football field. That's for sure So you might be right. You might be right. Okay. What'd you say? You said I may be confused about Luke 15 1 through 32. I'm not gonna read all 32 verses I believe you can't this thing was hold still I believe you can be in a long season of sin at worst then come back. That's not love again. Well What can happen is this though and this is why it's it's ultimately determined by you I can't I can't tell you if you love God. I can't I can't I can't do that I don't know how do I know because if we looked at Peter If we looked at Peter on the day that he denied Christ matter of fact the day after He don't love he doesn't he didn't love him He didn't love him at all. He he couldn't have loved him You could just walk the way around but no you verbally and forcefully said I don't know the man So forceful was Peter in his denial of Jesus verbally that he swore a That he swore a a a an oath against himself I swear, I don't know him. That's him saying it's almost like Cross my heart hope to die stick me in my that's that's kind of what Peter said He swore against not cuss words, but he swore against himself He went out of his way to make these people believe that he didn't know Jesus. I don't know who talking about not me So if we looked at him on that day and the next day, no, no But he was broken. He did love him. He was just weak Peter was weak We are weak and so Peter Was broken was torn But remember what Jesus said Remember what Jesus said Jesus said to Peter Before the rooster crows you will deny me three times Then he goes on and speaks with Peter says but when you return So Jesus even tells me you're gonna deny me and you're gonna return to come back Then you're gonna wear Peter you I'm still strengthening you. I'm still growing you. Oh By the way, I'm gonna do something too. I'm gonna give you the Holy Spirit. I'm gonna embolden you And so they're gonna be times where it looks like that we are not Matter of fact, there will be times where non-christians look like Christians that that is gonna happen That is going to is going to be a case to where You are going to at some point in time not emulate Christ that that is the case Peter Acted unbecoming and then Paul confronts him to his face Paul and Barnabas have this dispute about John Mark one of them were wrong Well, we've got a gospel with with John Mark's name on it Which indicates that maybe Paul was wrong Paul comes back later on and says now he didn't apologize I've been like everybody does say that bring bring mark. He's he's useful for me so I Can't determine if if a person is in a season or that's their lifestyle. I I can't do that You can't do we don't have that ability to Okay, and so we let the good and bad grow together God is gonna be the one that's gonna do the separating figure now We can't we just can't do it There was a time where people thought that Simon the Sorcerer next aid that he Legitimately believed that he was but the tense of the verb believe we indicate we look at it in the scriptures now we see it's a different belief but That is That's all of us All of us are likes like the stock market. We got our ups days. We got our down days up days down days Hopefully though as we go further on in our life We're further up. We look back than we were before Even if that day that we look back as a down day, it should still be higher than it was in the past We are always growing always growing always growing always growing It happens these little seasons these little depressions that we go into it happens It happens which is by the way why we have to which All right, see I've got all right, all right. Listen, let me I'm just saying to you because you're not listening young brother You know, you're not listening brother. You're not listening if You don't love Jesus type in the type type in chess. Can you be saved if you don't love Jesus? If you don't love Jesus, can you be saved? Backloading I'm saved. You're saved and you love Jesus if you Text back on the screen if anyone does not love the Lord. That's Jesus. He is to be a cursed If anyone does not love the Lord, he is to be a curse not my words his words Show me the person who loves the Lord Show me that person. No, I'm sorry. Show me the person who saved and doesn't love the Lord I'm not telling you what your works have to be. I'm not telling you what you have to do You say that's a troll Okay Thank you, Michael. I appreciate that if you do not love God you ain't Safe one of those words. It's not a not a real word. We made into a word by the way that you all know I just it hurt my heart the other day hurt my heart the other day to find out that the word Reiterate which I use all the time is not an actual word Who knew I thought reiterate was a word. No, the word is iterate. That's it. Not reiterate, but iterate. I didn't know Shocking has nothing to do with this conversation whatsoever But when I said the word ain't made me think about that my wife's a teacher. She showed me that reiterate who knew So let me reiterate to you again. If you do not love the Lord He ain't he is in loving the Lord I'm gonna see it somebody gonna see it. I might not see it, but I'll go on somebody if I look how many you love your wives How many you husband loves your wife? Now I can promise you this if she don't see it You don't love her if your wife doesn't see it yet Yeah, it might be because you don't love her you say you do Look at you. Okay. Look at the show off the show off Recapitulate is a word though. I know that recapitulate Yeah, I say it wants to show off but big word and did he and he spelled it right? Well, you know what though? I might even give you credit for spelling right because you got to spell check or spell correct on you on your computer So yeah, you you get no credit here, buddy. No, I'm kidding Allison. I didn't thank you for the super chat. I appreciate that and I saw wait a second. I saw hold on. Let me move back up. Let me move back up. I saw I saw I saw Hold on. Type this here I know what I I know what I saw. Oh There is hey, hey, brother. Listen, I hadn't forgotten about you. I've been so I've been so busy But I will I will get back with you. I promise you and I want to put that out there. I forget so Let me catch back up move this thing all the way back down Now, let me just say this also guys. Let me just say this also. It is easy Because sometimes this is this is why I said this before How we fight who we fight what I take it back who we fight and how we fight Also can be a bad thing a bad look on us. Thank you December for the two percent. I appreciate that Who we fight and how we fight? What do I mean by that? I? Don't mean disagreeing with another brother But fighting with another brother that that that's problematic And then how you fight? Can I give you an example from me and my brother Chris? I'm the youngest of the boys Chris I told you guys about my brother Chris. He's the he's my dumb brother and I can I can okay felt now I'll cover that I'll cover for you brother. I see you. I think you've asked that's your second time answering I'm going ahead and go ahead and that's that but I think I've told you that my brother Chris That's the dumb brother and I can call him my dumb brother because he's my brother and y'all don't know How dumb he is about that but Chris about now we love each other grew up together and Chris is a year and a half older than how's he Yeah, you're in half older than me he's a year and a half older than me and So he was the one that was responsible when mama was gone this back in day where you know you go home What the big deal being at home by yourself wouldn't big deal walk through the store by yourself or what happened That that was that side was back in the 70s and 80s. It wasn't a problem at all She had a big problem if she came home and we were fighting Big problem. You're supposed to be brothers supposed to love each other. I do love that's why I'm fighting him He said this he did that one day. I Don't know what I don't know what got into me, but I escalated I escalated the problem I exacerbated the problem What I decided to do because Chris was picking on me Chris was bigger at the time He's still being me actually He was picking on me and I had enough. I was like pop by that's all I can stand to like can't stand no more Is that I say is that how it goes? So, what did I do? No, Dutch we talked about the 90s. If you know I went to mother 90s. Sorry Dutch So I had to escalate what did I do I punched him we we had always made it was like a unwritten rule We would hit we wouldn't close our fists and hit we would smush each other in the face up like that, but but Oh, no, listen back in back in those days It was it was okay to walk on 42nd 42nd and post 46 we was on 42nd and post It was okay then you had it was it was getting there Keep quit doing that mark. You take me back, but I punched him in the face. He was in such shock I was in shock that I did that And I took off running because he said okay now I'm about to fight about the fight. He was ready to swing I didn't want him to punch me Well Mama Catches I told her remember I told you my brother Chris is the dumb brother She catches him trying to punch me with his fists and she was hot One that we're fighting but two how we were fighting Now of course he got in trouble He got in trouble because Do you think God feels the same way That we fight and how we fight to call people Just sometimes we treat right wood. No, no, no, this was right. What was bad back in the day? Stop it y'all taking me too far back It's right what's still bad. I don't know how you hadn't been in a minute but God is concerned about not just who we fight, but how we fight Remember he says you can't say that you love me if you don't love him or her or then you can't say that Get that out of your mouth or or the point also is that if you have a problem with him Be careful that the problem didn't didn't Didn't cause us to see or him to see or you to recognize that you don't love this person Because sometimes you can love somebody and then kind of go too far But if you do you know what you have you know what happens you feel bothered by you feel guilty That's because the spirits in you and you feel bother You know why you feel bother because you you have been born again. You've got this repentant heart in you What'd you say? Well, the only way he wouldn't get what yeah, yeah, yes, he would get mad. Yes, you would get mad Yes, he would get mad. I was gonna say something but no Nick Harris's question. Who is Nick Harris? Is that the one I said I was gonna answer. Oh Nick says Just curious. Where does it say in the scripture that if you don't love God, you are not saved here It is it's the scripture of the hour 1st Corinthians 16 22 If anyone does not love the Lord he is to be a cursed. There it is If you're a courage you ain't safe this is that that So hope that helps. Yeah, that's where it says 1st Corinthians 16 Why is it you push pushing out of there 1st Corinthians 16 22? If you don't love the Lord you ain't say let me go and answer this question for this brother You said now, what did you want to know about Hebrews? 1026 I think I know what you want to ask about it though For if we go on sinning willfully after the knowledge of the truth, there is there no longer remains a sacrifice for sin So are you are you? Probably what you're asking is does that it demonstrate that a person? Well, I put this way often it comes up in this issue of loss of salvation The writer of Hebrews which by the way is not Paul But the writer of Hebrews is stating First of all, it's written to who to Jews to Hebrews. It's literally in the title of the book This writer has just gone on a long lengthy discussion Reading Hebrews requires having some understanding of the law particularly the book of Leviticus and He because he's gonna bring up this this whole issue of the atonement the high priest that the elements and so forth Sin being taken away Entering the holy of Holies and so forth and then some then send me and been a sacrifice I mean atone for rather than having to do it year after year after year then One time and then after there's no longer a reminder of sin this guilt of sin is gone away with it So he gets to 1026 says what we go on sinning willfully after receiving the vows of the truth There are no longer remains a sacrifice for sins But a terrifying expectation of judgment and the fury of a fire which will consume the adversaries. Is it possible? To receive the understanding to receive the knowledge of the truth Someone tells you about What Jesus done on the cross for you is it possible? No, do I think that Luke wrote it? No, I don't I don't think that Luke wrote it But is it possible that a person can hear the gospel? Get all this and you've got all of this all of this all of this receive the truth And then decide to keep on just willfully sinning. Is that possible sure as possible? You know people like to have probably Because there's no there no longer remains a sacrifice for sin This person is rejecting the sacrifice for sin that was made well There is no longer there is no sacrifice for sin for that person for anyone after as a matter of fact He says but a terrifying expectation of judgment and the fury of a fire Which will consume the adversaries? Anyone who has set aside the law of Moses dies without mercy on the testimony of two or three witnesses How much severe punishment do you think he will deserve who has trampled underfoot? The son of God who has regarded as unclean the blood of the covenant By which he was sanctified and has insulted the spirit of grace. So here it is Again, I said you have to have an understanding of what's happening with with the law and Leviticus and so forth And so if a person tramples on the foot basically disregards what has happened as a result of the blood There's nothing that you can do for them. There is no sacrifice for that person That's all you got that's all that's the only thing that that saves that saves them Specifically these Jews Is This blood-bought atonement Are you with me? He's comforting him. He's telling us because remember what do they know? We covered this before about understanding the the atonement. What do these Jews know? They know the law the the atonement all Um, or the main thing that's required the fulfillment of the law The most important aspect of the law was the atonement That was the most important aspect of it And in that Their sins are atoned for nationally and individually for one year, but then throughout the year you you mess up But then we offer these sacrifices these sin offerings We went through this the other day. It could be a male goat a female goat turtle dove pigeon flower Depend upon, you know, uh, your rank and and your obviously your ability to uh to do those things now What must these Jews be thinking because remember it's not like this is that they've been doing this being being a believers in the messiah for a long time So what are they what must they be thinking? Well, I keep messing up I've got to give a sin offering. What about the day of atonement? This is in their mind And he said well if you think That you can forfeit this If you if you can fall away you cannot come back because how do you come back? There is no there is no altar God is not accepting off offering anyway. But if if they're if they were offering there is no altar for them to do it on No one no one is adhering none of the Jews even a day are adhering to that particular aspect of the law So continuing He says for we know him who said venus is mine. I will pay And again, the lord will judge his people. It is a terrifying thing to fall into the hands of the living god But remember the former days when after being enlightened you endured a great conflict of suffering Remember, I told you these people all they they're kind of conflating the two This new covenant versus their old covenant That's why it says but remember the former days when after being enlightened You endured a great conflict of suffering Partly being made a public spectacle through the reproaches and tribulations and partly by becoming shares with those Who were so treated for you showed sympathy to the prisoners and an accepted joyful The seizure of your property knowing that you have for yourselves a better possession And a lasting one therefore do not throw away your confidence Which has great reward for you have need of endurance So that when you have done the will of god you may receive what is promised For yet in a very little while He who was coming will come and will not delay But my righteous one shall live by faith or the just shall live by faith And if he shrinks back my soul has no pleasure in him Well, it seems to be saying that you could shrink back you could look what he says though He wraps us up to give them confidence because he just said I want you to have this confidence Don't throw away your confidence. Look what he says verse 39, but we are not of those Who shrink back to destruction but of those who have faith to the preserving of the soul those who have faith To the preserving of the soul and then he goes into faith and so forth about how faith moves in us So his whole point because it would be it'd be odd for verses 26 and 27 And he moves to speak of leaving when verses when the earlier parts of t and all of nine and eight and seven and six Say just the opposite that would be a problem. That would that would be literally the whoever this writer is contradicting himself in such a short span so Did you say something chest chant? What would what am I addressing chest chant do daddy? I'm not overlooking your Realizers like 1500 comments that are going through so if I don't see your comment y'all Let's let's can I let's do some youtube etiquette for a second It's just youtube etiquette for a second explanation I can't see all of your comments. I really cannot They're moving. There's a there's a there's a bunchy up in here Now today it's a little lighter than uh than usual. There's only three and some people in in the chats right now There are days when there's 500 600 something like that more than that and I said I can't Why don't you read my comments? I because I can't see them all. Oh, by the way How long would we be here if I respond to every comment? Next week What are the commands of jesus if you love me? You will keep my commands where he says he He uh wraps up the tomb or wraps him up in the tomb Whatever his commands are Now we do not see jesus out of his mouth saying Keep commandment one two three four five six seven nine ten and then the rest we we don't see that We don't see that right We do see him though kind of speaking on Aspects of following him That would end up fulfilling What his commands are let me put it this way What the lord wants us to do as believers Will also fulfill his goal and his intent in the old covenant law as well the things he did now There are certain ritualistic aspects that were not required to do Such as certain foods that we cannot eat and he covers that But in terms of how we look at god and how we look at our fellow man In our walk we cover that And so there's no need why is there no need for him to read? I'm sorry to iterate that Here's the reason why because the issue is prior To him set jesus incarnating himself Prior to that Man could hear the rules know the rules and not follow them. So what is he going to do give us his holy spirit? And then thereafter we are going to do what love him That's the whole point of what i'm saying If you do not love god You're not saved and if you do love him. What will you do? You'll love your brother What are the two greatest commandments we covered this two greatest commandments love Love the lord your god with all your heart mind with everything all that you got Give it all you got. What's the second commandment? It's like the first love your brother like you love yourself So, okay, I see it. Uh, where's this question? I was not really going for a Q&A today Really would uh divante in which pastor are you speaking of which the if in which passage sometimes by the way And this this I think one day I don't want to but I may need to I may need to so so tell me which pastor you speaking of divante about the if but I made need to cover this because Sometimes an if Is not there in the greek and it's implied sometimes it is sometimes the word if means something there's a little nuance to it um that's okay Just tell me which which passage are you uh, are you referring to? Yeah, I say I was I was not planning on doing that. I was I was not I was not uh I remember there's looking at these these various pastors because if okay, if if you study even if you do english Even if you do english, but but specifically in this case greek or hebrew Sometimes you lay a passage out and it'll say something. Oh, it means this straightforward Like every other language. There's always exceptions or there's there's rules to go along with it if Because you have to keep in mind the grammar You also have to keep in mind the syntax The order in greek word order is not as important as it is in english and sometimes word order Is used to kind of give an emphasis like john 11 third court third clause of john 11 which says The greek is rendering And god was the word I'm sorry. Yeah, god was the word but we say in the word was god That's exactly how it's supposed to be read But there's a reason for the god for the theos being shifted to the front in that particular portion So uh, first Corinthians 15 to Okay Now I make known to you brethren The gospel which I preach to you which also you received and which also you stand By which also you are saved if you hold fast the word which I preach to you unless you believe in vain And so let's go over here And where is the word there it is a a Is it's it's uh, it's a conjunction supporting conjunction. It means if or whether So the point is Paul is stating remember paul matter of fact Paul has art paul. This is the same paul who states that Uh, you should examine yourself make sure right and so you'll see these passages. You'll see this kind of Throughout scripture where says that is it if if indeed so he says I make known to you brethren the gospel Which I preach to you which also you have received in which you you also stand by which you are saved You're saved by this gospel that is that is if you hold fast to what to the word which I preach to you Unless you believe in vain so And by the way remember I told you We also want to focus on the tense of the words the same thing for this word believe but also What i'm telling you guys that is if indeed you hold fast to this Unless you didn't that means you we covered this before you can believe temporarily Jesus explains the the parable of sowers Why when he brings up this issue about them holding on or receiving something temporarily? I mean if I use even use the word temporary and so Uh, it's just simply saying that is if indeed so I can say that christians xyz If indeed you are christian if you are christian And there's this point if you are Again, I think one of the passages that I had that I had to deal with It bothered me And I went to Different preachers now. I finally went to the to the to the senior pastor. I didn't want him to know that I was struggling with this Here I am one of the one of the pastors in the church and I and this was at a time where I was I wasn't sold on internal security I was not And I'm fighting and fighting fighting. I'm talking to the other preachers there Uh, I don't know. I should just went to the pastor first. I mean, he's uh, uh, he's the doctor He's the one who's got he's he's a seminary professor but John James 519 brother If any Among if any among you strays from the truth and one turns him back Let him know that he who turns a center from the air of his ways Will save his soul from death and will cover a multitude of sins That bothered me because wait a second. You mean to it says brethren So clearly is talk. He's talking to christian that part is true And I saw if anyone among you strays from the truth will says that brethren Who stray from the truth? Well, every word in his passage is important So because I'm reading this this as brethren can stray from the truth and this and it says Let him know that he who turns a center from the air of his ways will save his soul from death Now one person one of the one of the elders said well, no, that's not talking about him dying spiritually That's just him getting in trouble. Well, that's not what that says because it says will save his soul From death. So we're speaking about a spiritual death. This is this is salvation here Without question and I kind of realize it is salvation. It's on the line Without question. This is talking about someone's salvation on the line But then when I go and look at the passage again And this by the way, uh, dr. Bowman said just read the passage again Read it again. All right, read it again And it says to me, you know, you know what he says to me Read it again See this is all right. I got you know what I got time. I got time. What do you mean, uh, biblical commentary network Biblical commentary network, you are trusting me and for your who what which men am I trusting for my my opinion? Why this happens all the time? Which men am I trusting for my opinion? Oh, I just want to know now are you implying that we should not ask anybody for anything That would be a really silly thing to say that don't have kids don't have kids and tell them the same thing Stop trusting men for my okay You literally said the same thing you just put stop instead of court This is where we got to grow up brother This is where we have to grow up So I want you to do what you were taught to do in school and make your make yourself more understood Explain yourself. You have you have my attention now How am I trusting in men's opinion? by the way By the way, where are you at again? Where are you at again? Mr, uh, biblical biblical con that's odd for you to say that though with with the titles you got biblical commentary network I'm gonna ask your question, sir. Do you read your bible? You're gonna say yes, of course I do I'm gonna ask you to read your english bible You're gonna say yes, I do I read in english And then my question is going to be how did you get that? Do you realize do you all realize when you read the english bible? You are trusting the commentary of some other man's opinion You do realize that right because to take the word there is no such thing as a word for word straight pure word for word translation No, we don't have it not in greek or hebrew or the even the the air made portions We can't do it can't do it. So, you know, we do we rely on someone some translators telling us This is what this word is best translated as in your language Have you ever had a person that speaks spanish and haven't read their bible? And they'll say well my word my the word here kind of says this it means that Anyone anyone in the chat to speak spanish? And that give them a spanish bible and an english bible King james version for both and I promise you I promise you said well this word means a little bit different here Because the translators are trying to give it to you the best way they know how the best way they think that you will understand it They don't know you but they're doing the best they can Where you where'd you go? You're not Okay, maybe you're taking a long time of type which I'll give you that kind of time But I love to know I'd love to know how am I trusting men for opinion Now i'm asking the senior pastor the shepherd Who I would think would know more And he said just keep reading just keep reading and I said I just read it and it says this Keep reading Now I almost had it. I think I was getting it. Here's what it here's what it was Oh, that's a good question cam Dog only I got me turned into a q&a I'm gonna leave your your deal up there too until you give me a response biblical commentary network But here's here's the point of this passage. He says brother if anyone among you well I was focusing on the if if anyone strays Forget the fact that this word right here is aim is there Among you Ain't human anyone among you If anyone among you ain't human Why is that word there? Why is ain't human there? Because he didn't say if you Straight from the truth. He said if anyone Among you can I ask you guys a question. Here's the answer. Here's a question when you go to church sunday Is everybody there saved you're gonna say no So are there gonna be some folks around you among you who hear the word and don't accept it and walk away from the truth? Yes, there is That's what that meant. He said yeah, that's what that meant. That's exactly Well, that makes sense Uh, biblical I gotta ask a question guys. You guys didn't you guys didn't uh time him out, did you? You guys didn't ban him, did you? Because I don't see him. That's true That is true There are going to be words that are translated differently and can even I'm sorry and can even give more depth of feeling That's why you get some people who can speak english Um, I have a hard time expressing their yeah um There it is Okay, so it's uh All right, you mean tell me you took a part time for that I'm disappointed I'm disappointed in you. I'm not ashamed of you, but I'm disappointed in you I'm disappointed in the fact that you would take time to type that up twice But didn't tell me what you how do you how do you how do you say something? And know that no one will know what you mean and won't tell them what you mean That's not good communication How do they say in cool hand loot you old folk? What we have here is a failure to communicate It's what we have here. You could you could just you could have told me what you meant now When we look at the bible our english bibles What we're trying to do is we're trying or the transfer they're trying to take this word and give us what this word means now y'all do realize this is 2023 and By the way, by the way, by the way, where's it? a biblical commentary network Of course, I missed your message before the there's 2000 messages in here. Of course. I missed it So when I saw it all you had to do was iterate what you said before that's all you had to do That's all you had to do Tell me what just like right now you just type that you could have typed in what you said before What's wrong with you? What is wrong with these young folk? By the way, somebody said they thought that I was in my 40s. Amen Somebody said I think brother Cory's in his 40s Yeah, buddy. That's that clean living I wish I was in my 40s I wish I saw this video someone sent me maybe one of you guys I forgot someone sent me this video and it was about the difference between being over 40 and under 40 And the guy was getting off his truck said When you're under 40 You jumping down off that thing no big deal matter of fact in your mind That's how it is when you over 40 or under 40 you on top of something you just jump down You just jump down When you're over 40 Yeah, you ain't jumping down like that anymore. You know what you're gonna do. You're gonna take your time You go get down makes you got a good brace And go gingerly and even then when you're on the floor When you're on the floor when you're off the thing that you had to get off of you still holding on the thing That you was on just to make sure you're stable Yep, so that works But I was so glad you Yeah, 25 at best. That's right. I am 25 dog. I just thought about that 25 times two But this is what this is my issue this is my issue biblical commentary network Say I'm gonna work with you because I believe I believe you got potential I believe I believe you do there's something about me that tells me that you at least have an affinity for the Lord I don't know if you love them or not. I can't tell that But you might have an affinity and if so if our goal Is to grow in the word why Why do we want to grow in the word so that we can communicate it to the word? You do realize that faith comes by what I want you I want someone to tell me I want to see if you guys have been paying attention I want to see if you guys been paying attention Janice. You're not a spring chicken anymore. She pretty not I'm messing with you sister. I'm messing with you. Listen. We right there. We right there I can listen The the the cool part about getting older Is when you talk to other older folks, you can call everybody old now It's not an offense now when you young and call somebody old. That's fighting words But when you old yourself, I can call everybody else old But I want to ask a question though faith comes by what? Faith Isaiah says by hearing nope anybody else and I mess with you Isaiah Faith comes by what? How does faith come by and I want you to use your english vernacular Somebody gave me a thumbs down. That's okay though How does faith come by I want someone else tell me you're gonna say by hearing by hearing. I want someone to tell me Cindy Lou says hearing no I know I know why you're saying that though Jonah says Romans 10 17 and you what you're going to do is you're going to quote that passage. How does faith come by? Flipping nurse Betty says hearing by the word of God What do you mean by that when someone says hearing hearing you guys are using the hearing as see look at this And I get what you I get your point. I get what your point I get your point listening. Nope Nope Yes and no Faith comes by because the word that's used there for hearing and this is the this is the point that I'm trying to get That that I want you to see biblical commentary network This is the point. I want you to see my brother No, not by reading greek Faith comes by the report It's a noun Versus a verb Do y'all recall I've I've covered it before Now let let let you all think that I'm off my rocker and I'm just Let's let's go to romans 10 17 How they did not all heed the good news. Uh-oh the gospel How do they not all heed the good? You know what I could do? I really can turn this into his own little video I should I should have huh? I should just stop and just start over but I won't However, they did not all heed the good news. What are you speaking about of the the yuongalio, which is the gospel He says for isaias says lord Who has believed our report? Look at this word report This is greek word akai So akai means report. It's a noun. It's not a verb who has who has believed our report Now let's keep looking. So faith By the way, he's tying verse 17 with verse 16. Is he not isaias says Who has believed our report? So just the same way faith comes from hearing and hearing by the word of god Oh this word right here akai is is a very same word. It is a Noun there is akai's right there and akai right there for report. There's report and there's report and there's report I'm not saying speaking about the gospel Um isn't important. No, I'm saying the speaking is important But it is the gospel that generates the faith. Are you with me? It is the faith That comes from the word meaning it ain't the preacher that does it I don't care how good the messenger is. It's not the messenger that saves. It's the message. It's the report It's that gospel. That's why he's drawing those two together So faith comes from the gospel what he did. There is just power In the gospel if I were if I were in charge I would even make that a part of the bible You know how I would make that part of the bible I would say it like this For I'm not ashamed of the gospel because it is the power Somebody ought to put that in the bible if it were me if I were paul, I would say it just like that Oh, I'm sorry. He did say that He did say that he said I am not ashamed of the gospel for it is the power not the preacher Not the preacher and so I get bothered when I see Uh when I see someone give the credit to another person preaching Yeah, he may have done a wonderful job, but no, it's the word That's why you can go to a church where the lights are flashing and it seemed like everybody's at a party And someone can come to christ there or you can go to a church where it seemed like everybody's 137 years old And nobody's moving and someone's still coming christ in every church in between It's not the the mac the magnetic appeal of the preacher. It's not how well he sang it I mean the the choir sang it. It's not how well he preached it It is the gospel it is power in the gospel faith comes by the power of that word of that report That's why he ties to isaac whose report shall we believe we shall but there's a song like that We shall believe the report of the lord are you with me? So when I when someone says and I'm not sure that's what you're getting at, uh, young brother And I'm I'm I'm assuming your young brother. I shouldn't assume you might be 76 years old but When people say you're relying on head knowledge, you're relying no listen all I've got is the word So, you know, I'm gonna do I'm gonna look at the word and get understanding and by the way by the way I just this I didn't say just but I would say probably the last Four years four years I this was this wasn't when I was in my this was when I was on tour Some of you all don't know that I used to be on tour Yeah, I was I was on tour with the I was on tour at the federal government Yeah, I was at this prison and they took me to that prison and that prison and then that prison I was on tour and when I was on tour I was sitting out. I was taking a chill. I was watching tv And a brother who was who was listening to me. He came down and tapped me in the back I got a question report. I don't mean to bother you but When you get a chance, can you go look up what tense of the verb The word hearing is in he was trying to do a bible. So he didn't know greek. I said no problem I said, what would you like for me? He didn't know greek. I said, we you want to use my in linear? He said, I know I'm not getting through that. I said, no problem I said matter of fact, you know what this show that we're watching here is boring Let me let me go do it and you know what I found out. It was not a verb So since it wasn't a verb, there was no tense. Huh, this is a noun shock me Because how am I used to hearing it? I'm yeah fed pen seminary. I'm used to Regurgitating what someone told me Don't do that Go be like the Brians. Go look for yourself and so some of the that's why some of these arguments that we have some things people say is like, okay It's born out of us. Just not knowing By the way, incidentally Some of the people that I got on the most had become some of my better friends in this in this gospel Because what I'm going to do is I'm going to talk to you straightforward I'm going to talk to you straightforward if you're young enough to be my son I'll talk to you that way if you my brother. I'm going to talk to you straightforward Because I owe you my heart I owe you my heart whatever I can give to you I owe that to you if we're covering the scripture the point of the point of learning this By the way, y'all y'all do know the model of the of smart Christians, right? It is to love it Learn it and live it we want to live it out Not just in our action, but also we want to communicate. We want to learn the bible As well as we possibly can effectively why not so that we can grow in the knowledge for ourselves But to communicate it again What does the Holy Spirit want us to do with his word? The bible says to when jesus speaking to his Disciple he says when you thought the spirit he's going to testify of me We're going to testify of him the bible knows of no christian who's not wanting to testify of him That's what we're going to do. Jesus says if you don't what are you when salt loses The softness or light is not shining. He says you're good for nothing so so because of that because of that I want to effectively communicate the word of god I want to know it for myself and I want to effectively communicate it and that's the point Excuse me, and so when I show my work When I show my work on the on the scriptures Then I want you to see it as well So now before we get up out here, I want to put this scripture back up on here. No going to where to go The scripture of the hour. I untyped it. Hey, look listen when you when you get a dignitary Like uh an ambassador or when you get you know the president, you know, I The mayor the governor or in my case a us attorney You want to give honor brother virgin walk? How you doing my brother? Listen, uh, give me send me an email Send me an email it is um What's my email wow get no Get no smart christen channel gmail Send me an email. I would love to connect with you. I am I am a fan I am a fan. She said I'm I'm no troll. No, this is this is the real life virgin walker um Oh, but anyway first Corinthians 16 22 as we get ready to head out of here Let's put this main passage up The bible says the bible is clear paul says if anyone does not love the lord He is to be accursed if you do not love the lord You are to be accursed Those are his words. My wife is home now guys. So says babies and she's smiling. I think you know what? I think she did something I think she did something Yeah Something that she wanted to do I said, no, we're not gonna do that. I think she did it. I think she did it Hold on wait a second. Okay. Hold on. Hold on madison. Hold on madison. She said could you answer my question? If you have time, okay I'll answer yours madison Madison matter of fact, I think you actually put yours in a long time ago Okay, is this this the question Oh talk about madison. You got a couple questions. You know, I'm asked i'm gonna answer both of these Yeah, are we told uh to hate those who hate god? No, we're not told to hate them We now we can hate what they stand for like for example I don't hate isaac salivar. I hate his ministry I hate his ministry. I think it's ungodly But I love him Love him to death And that's how it's supposed to be. I would listen. I would bend over backwards Um to speak with him and just to walk with him. I really would I really would But here's the other question that that you asked that you asked um Is there a difference between the words used in greek for brother and neighbor mark 1231 in the esv uses neighbor instead of brother so let's go to mark 1231 mark The second is this you shall love your neighbor as yourself and the word for neighbor is the word for neighbor Is the word placeon and that is a neighbor However, is it okay to use brother? Yeah, because Kind of interchangeably You kind of know what was being said. So you could you could use the word brother, but it's it's neighbor. Just anybody Who's your neighbor? Who's your brother? Anybody So yeah, but but the greek word that's used here is you know, wait a sec. Wait a sec. Let me do something else Let me let me do this. Let's go back to it What I want to do now. I want to go ahead. I want to pull up the greek um Let's pull up the greek For the king james version and let me find it. Let me find it. Let me find it Let's see It's in here. There it is. No, is that it? Oh, there it is. There it is Okay, let's make this bigger. Let's see what the word is here All right, and so we're yep same word. It's the exact same word The same word uh is placeon and it does mean neighbor So, okay, cool The reason why I and I I'm starting to do that more and more because there are people who say, well, no, you got to use You got to use the the uh, you got to use the king james version. I said, well, no, I'd rather use the greek But now the texas perceptus Versus let's say i'm i'm typically coming out of the na 28 There might be some differences and so um, but What we disagree on when I go to the greek of the the texas perceptus, which is where we get the king james version Most of the arguments just go away. They just go away. There's a guy Who's a Pharisee? Uh, he made an argument like would you go back and look at the greek it for the that that they use for the king james version You tell me what that word means. But anyway, okay, let me do diligent passion The trinity is not necessary for salvation or belief in that Is adding to the work uh to the work and blood sacrifice of the cross God knows who he is and doesn't need anyone to believe in his identity. Well The problem is brother. That's just not what it says Uh, let's go ahead and do this real briefly And I said I was gonna get up out of here Let's just type it a passage real quick. Let's type in And the reason I like doing this one because I have not seen very many people who Okay, I haven't seen a lot of folks who have kind of gotten around this So let me put up a couple passages real real briefly Okay Wait a minute. Oh, there it is. Okay duty around me. Where you at? Let me let me keep you up here I want to make sure I have you here Where are you? Where are you? I want to Put the question back up. There it is diligent Okay, so let's see what the bible says Do the rhyming 435 says to you it was shown that you might know the lord He is god. There is no other beside him verse 39 says the same thing by the way 36 37 38 Reiterates this verse 39 says know therefore today and take it to your heart that the lord He is god in heaven above and on earth. There is no other so Who is the lord god? There's no other lord. There is no other god now. Let's go back to Romans And let's go to Romans 10 by the way Let's go to Romans 10 and let's go to Where we was just at a little further. Let's speak about um Becoming a believer. How do you become a believer? He says that if you confess with your mouth Jesus as lord the question is are we saying that Jesus is the lord or a lord? Well, it's clear that we have to confess that Jesus is the lord But when he says and believe in your heart that God has raised from the dead You will be saved for with the heart a person believes resulting in righteousness and with the mouth He confesses resulting in salvation for the scripture says whoever believes in him will not be disappointed For there is no distinction between you and greek for the Same lord is lord of all abounding in riches for all who call upon him For whoever calls on the name of the lord will be saved now In order to be saved you must confess that Jesus is the lord and the lord is god So forget using the word trinity fine if that if that's what floats your boat But what you absolutely must do is you must confess that he is god If he is not if who you place your faith in was a jesus who's not god Then you didn't place your faith in the authentic jesus are you with me that part is important You must do that. That's why i went to show the old without going through a long discord Uh or discourse about this even go to xvIII we see that uh in the burning bush We have the lord danger the lord god the same Oh, oh also i am So the lord is god there's only one lord one lord like one faith one lord one baptism one lord And that's jesus and you must confess that jesus is the lord the same the same that he is god Are you with me so all right guys i've got to run Uh, it's been a pleasure. I did not mean to stay with you guys for an hour and a half.
