 Good evening. Good morning. Good afternoon. I hope you're all doing well And as always as we go through this, please remember to put a cue or Question something to give my attention. I'm not going to be able to answer all of them, but I'll do my very best. We'll probably be here about an hour hour and a half And so put a cue or question If you want to capitalize put all caps of question part that do that But don't make the question all cap So no no intro music is one just go ahead and just jump into it because and really should be told the only reason Why we have the countdown to come in is In case an ad is running and then someone might miss What starts in the beginning so it kind of gives everyone an opportunity kind of one get settled in plus It also gives YouTube it sends YouTube the signal that we go live then YouTube signals out through all of YouTube's fear That the smart christians channel is on so Uh, let me go ahead and start I don't know what that is, but I'll address it but I won't be able to answer it But go ahead and Go ahead and start putting your questions in and again, I'll try to get to them I am looking for miss madison Since she was the one that asked to to do the the live stream And so if y'all see her make sure and she has a question make sure that I see her question I'm assuming it's it's a it's a she so Let's see. I'll start marking these cues by the way, by the way There's madison. Hello madison. We're here because of you I actually had no intention of doing the the q&a, but then you asked such not in a nice way Of course, I don't know you could have had a you could have had a smirk on your face or frown And was angrily typing. I don't know. I don't know, but I'm gonna soon Bet you asked in a nice way Let's see Okay, that's a good question Someone asked a question. I had I hadn't even thought about it. I'm thinking about it now I'm thinking about it now By the way, we have a pretty good week coming up. I just want to give you a little heads up I'm gonna have two guests I'm gonna have two guests coming on And one of them I'm going to try to thoroughly destroy He had the audacity Yeah, I did Joan about the person who's impersonating me. I don't know who that is Where did you see it at so I could also Report as well. But tell me where'd you where'd you see it at? I don't know and it happens I don't know what they're just people out there who wanted to just impersonate you say that they're this person or that person would have you and I'm not asking you to join anything or to do anything. And so if that's coming from someplace else, what have you been and one One of the dead giveaways also sometimes is that they'll when they put smart christian, they'll put it without the s but Yeah, you Yes, lisa Yes My goal is a third and I'm not gonna destroy him I'm not gonna destroy him Not not not too bad. I'll leave some I'll leave. I'll try to leave some pieces of them around That is another good question there, um cg Okay, let me go ahead and um Errstar, thank you for tuning in from the uk I need to go visit the uk. I need to go visit the uk. See what's see what all the fuss is I need to figure out why we left Why why why we rebelled against the crown and see what's happened since Uh, let's see By the way, what is it like being in the uk and having this Queen and king stuff what it was. I mean, I know they're not really in in in charge and control, but what is that like? What is that there's madison's question What is that like? I just I just wondered Sometimes I wish our president was kind of like the king and queen just a figurehead and didn't have any power Okay, all right. I'm gonna go ahead and start answering some of the questions. I will Let's see. I'm leaving off. Where am I leaving off at? I gotta figure out what I'm leaving off at so that way Oh, allison, you are you in the are you in the uk as well? Says we love having the royal family Okay There's got to be a setting on here I'm thinking out loud where when I go to push or mark a comment that it doesn't move I've got to figure out if that if that is available on here because I go to click a comment And it just moves. So anyway, okay, let's go ahead and start answering that this question I have no idea how to answer it. Dr. Sandrew Wright Says what are your thoughts on christians and some pastors wearing those? Hematite beaded bracelets Tiger's eyes and such are that I don't know I don't know. You said is it a roman 14 issue? Well, let's go roman 14 It'd be hard for me to to address Okay, that's what you're saying. I don't think so. Well, you know what? I don't know I would have to see it. I would honestly have to see it to know. I just I And maybe I've seen it and didn't pay attention I've seen people with different, you know, trinkets Around their arms and necks and so forth, but I never really paid attention to them I don't know. Maybe it just looked like a rubber band, you know back in the day guys Used to people just used to put a rubber band around their arm for whatever reason Maybe that's that's what it is. I'm not I'm not sure by the way I'll say this looking at your your avatar your picture Nice nice haircut. I've got to compliment you on that wonderful beautiful haircut Hey, man What is the scripture? I'm sorry. Jeff says what is the scripture passage that challenges you the most in discernment? Hmm I'm gonna save that question because I got to think about that. I got to think about that Which mark christ is none? None challenges, but what are you talking about? Jeff? That's not one passage that challenges me I'm obviously I'm kidding Um Let me think about that There are some that I don't have I don't have an answer to that. I just that I wonder about But as far as challenging, I'm not let me think about that though. Let me think about that Rick says what are some practical steps to take? To take to recover from a long backslide. Well Let me just say this. I know what you mean But let me also say the other side of this that is that biblically speaking The term backslide is only found in the old testament and is for israel Uh a born again. Believe a person has a holy spirit and does not backslide But I think I know what your point is that is Here you are. Maybe you were you were living for the lord You felt like you're living for the lord as we say on fire or a little bit of fire And then maybe you kind of lost a little bit of that lost a little bit of that because you kind of Had a season a prolonged season maybe where you just don't have this connectedness that you feel with the lord You're not studying. You're not reading. You're not spreading the word. You're not magnifying the lord Maybe not going to church. I'm not reading like I should Well, the first tip is really what you just said One recognizing that and then just returning Uh, there is this process that we go through as believers and The bible calls it I covered this the other day the bible calls it or says it's it's renewing But it's not renewing But because if you just take the just the wooden interpretation Anna and then kainas kainas is new and then ana means it can be new or it can mean up above Matter of fact, that's where we get the uh, I know thin where they thought that The ana part the on part was either again or above It is this up newing and we're in this constant state of it So sometimes we we start off on fire. We're moving where we're we're doing like this And then we have a little bit of a little bit low Then we go up a little bit low then up and down, you know, and sometimes we we get into these little valleys And it's like wait a second. I'm not I'm not I'm gonna losing streak so to speak And it's it's easy to kind of get in it and get stuck in it. It's almost like Like working out you were doing good for a while then you stopped and then next thing you know once you stop It's easy to stay stopped And then kind of breaking out of that. There are times where you have to just push through Let me just say this also Because sometimes we say that we have this statement where we'll say that I it's not a religion. It's relationship What is both? Biblically speaking it's both and we're told that even james says that we should have a pure undefiled religion Meaning this Sometimes you do have to do some things to kind of get yourself through for example I don't feel like going to church, but I'm gonna go to church. I don't feel like reading but I'm gonna make myself read I I do some things kind of in a religious fashion such as reading. That's not a bad thing To set aside time each day if you want to you know, this is my time That I'm gonna just get into work or this is my time. I'm just gonna I'm gonna pray Even if I don't feel like if the alarm goes off the bell goes off That's what I'm gonna do And so those are some things that you can do The religious part comes in when you don't when the I feel like it or I want to hadn't kicked in Because let's be honest guys. There are times where I just don't I don't I don't feel christiany I don't I don't feel like doing christian stuff as a matter of fact right now right now I feel like watching tv right now. I feel like doing something else. They're just our times and anyone that says otherwise Is lying to us and themselves There are times where you just aren't at that level There are times when you got to go and pray there are times when you got to get away from other people Jesus got away from the crowd now. His was different, but for us. I'm sick and tired You know what can can we bring back? COVID so we can be on lockdown again because some of the people that I'm around they have just thoroughly sexed my nerve That happens or I just I don't feel like it, you know And so all you can do is all you can do just push push push pray This is why it's important to be around other christians Online be around christians personally in person at church This is where it's good to have good christian friends A good good christian counterparts that holds you accountable to speak to your fellowship with you Listen to some music listen to some christian content and so forth watch watching content so that you're filling yourself up with that This is you or just just yielding to the holy spirit even when you don't want to Because there is a tension. There's a fight going on inside of us. It happens and sometimes and that's the one thing What we don't want to do we don't want to judge Someone's walk because right now It looks like this person is not with the lord again The best example I can always turn to is peter the day that he denied christ verbally most folks Who most folks who have these seasons don't deny him verbally just kind of just In their actions, but he denied them verbally before the people and jesus saw made eye contact So if we judge him on that day in the next day jesus peter wouldn't say No, peter peter was just as bad as judas At least judas. Yeah judas betrayed him, but peter you look like judas If we judged him on that day, but come to find out. No, he's not what he He is not what he was for those a couple of days. Amen. And so All you what you're doing right now is really the the step just recognize like, you know, I need to get better I need to do better Dog going coming to the smart christian. You know what coming to the smart christian's channel It's a good step It's an awesome step to take right there I'm kidding Of course you're so doggone arrogant Anyway Good question. And you know what I'm I'm going to cover this. I told you before guys. There's a lot of More content coming out. I have deleted about About 300 videos I'll I'm probably going to delete about another 100 200 maybe 300 videos as well And just redo everything so that the audio as a matter of fact later today I'll be working on the audio and have it consistent or you all can't see it But there's an equalizer right here. There's a modern term stuff like that I've got to put some more stuff on it so that there's a certain Quality I don't like the quality of it right now. I think my voice sounds wonderful for the camera I'm kidding. I actually want to hear my voice. It sounds weird to me even now hearing my voice like that's me I don't I sound a whole lot better inside my head than I do outside Something's wrong with this mic, right? Anyway, so I got to work on that So I'm going to take about 200 300 videos off more to come off And then some of those will be redone one of the things one of the things we're going to cover is dealing with slavery and then even what does the bible mean because The term that's used for slave even in the new testament There's different ways that it can be conveyed. There's different nuances and we should also Appreciate using nuances because it doesn't always mean the term slave does not always mean slave As a matter of fact The very first time that it was written or the first few times that we saw it written the word doulas written in the new testament It was either servant or maid servant. There were also times where it was used for slavery But now you can think sorry guys in the uk But you can thank the uk for this or really the king james version because it changed the term knowledge to to slavery More so in the in the king james version. Well, why what was going what was going on at that time? Well a lot of slavery and so sometimes you might read or you might bring in the cultural Terms into the scripture because that's how you see things and that's one of the issues that you have to deal with When translating a text, but does god why does god regulate slavery? Well, remember one of the things god wants to do is to bring people to him the world is corrupt and falling I won't go too far into but the world is corrupt and falling And so there's going to be a lot of horrible and horrendous things happening and taking place Now he tells him how to treat them How to let them go and so forth, but he never commands him to or really advocates But this is how it is almost like what it was with With divorce they said well, why then did did moses give a bill of divorce? It was never supposed to be that way in first place But because the hardness of your heart God allowed this or had this to work And so there's going to be rules governing how we how we do things and interact and so forth And so we see god's heart coming through paul when he's speaking about onissimus in philemon So it's not god's intent or desire for anyone to be subject to another man at all And so We're going to cover that even you know And even more in depth because there's some people who do not like the bible who are Enemies of christianity who would like to tell us that the bible advocates some of these things and it doesn't it doesn't Shireen from a friend Could you address the claim from hebrew from from hebrew israelites romans 9 24 to 26 in reference To gentiles is speaking about israelites in hosea what so now you got to make me put up two scriptures Okay, I see what you did there. So let's type in you said romans 9 24 And then we're going to compare that with you said Hosea one Oh, you know, you know, it's funny. I literally have hosea already up I know it must you know what it must have been the lord the holy spirit spoke. I'm kidding So let's go to hosea one already since it's already up hosea one you said 10 through 11. Let's move down to verse 10 Yeah, the number of the sons of israel will be like the sand of the sea which cannot be measured or numbered And in the place where it is said to them, you are not my people It will be said to them You are the sons of the living god and the sons of juda and the sons of israel will be gathered together And they will appoint for themselves one leader and they will go up from the land For great will be the day of jezreel now. Let's go to romans 9 24 Let's click the Even us whom he also called Not from among the jews only but also from among gentiles as he says in hosea I will call those who are not my people my people and her who was not beloved Beloved and it shall be that in that in the place where it was said to them You are not my people. They there they shall be called sons of the living god I think that passage that particular passage those passages as matt as well as A lot of what jesus says specifically romans 10 not romans 10 john 10 Refutes a lot of the arguments of the hebra israelites. Remember, let's just say this Hebra israelites and the bible don't go hand in hand. These people can't spell bible. They can literally spell bible, but you know what I mean And so it's clear that he's he's taking people from israel and those who are not of israel And he's going to make one flock as jesus says and he'll be the shepherd of of these the two to become one And hosea is is an example of What god is doing remember hosea's wife gomer. She's this wayward woman She's with everybody and he wants he wants her to take her take her back Signifying what god is going to do with israel, but at the same time He's also going to bring in The non-jews this is a lesson for israel as well, but that they're not the only ones that god is going to Um bring in these other people people who as he says who are not my people They would be called my people people who are not loved. They would be called beloved and so That I think really strikes a blow to them They again, they don't read the bible one in context But two they they jump around look for passages look for words To kind of keel on to make their point and by the way guys again We do have that hebra israelite in that band is still in place Unless we have to be talking about hebra israelites on that day, but for now hebra israelite band is in play Like a like a muslim band. So it's our hebra israelite band Will the church be here? At the beginning of the tribulation second lessons along in this two one through three remember paul is writing them in second this one is why because He told them About the coming of the lord to take his people now. I'm one who believes in a rapture who believes in the tribulation that is going to affect Certain people and that's the question who and what is the tribulation for? As a matter of fact, let's just do this. Let's do this. Let's let's one pull up And I don't want to go too much because we can be here on this topic all day long and for some reason this topic I don't know what it is about this topic But a lot of people get angry It's like if you don't have the same ask ask a logical views. You are a heretic I don't know why that happens, but let's go to second best alongians And let's go one Now, you know, we don't even have to go there. Let's but let's go to let's go to Daniel oops daniel and Make sure I find the right one Oh, no, no, no, no. I'm sorry. Not Daniel. Daniel 12 There it is Okay, Daniel 12. What else? Let's go to Don't go in. I pushed the wrong button over here And then let's also go to was that Daniel 12? Let's also go to What's the passes I want to go to I can't think I can't think of the passes I wanted to go to It'll come it'll come to me. I'm moving too fast moving too fast for the kid as Richard Carr said Matter of fact, let's pull this up for a second. Let me look at something over here Okay and this Give me one second. I'm looking this up. What I just did What did I just do? Y'all forgive me. I'm clicking buttons And the reason why I want to pull this up matter of fact No Almost there. You know, let's just do it this way. Let's let's just go right here Um, Daniel 12 Let's put it on the screen Daniel 12 Then I Daniel looked and behold two others were standing on the banks of the river And on the other and that bank of the river And one said to the man dressed in linen who was above the waters and the rivers How long will it be until the end of those wonders? And I heard a man dressed in linen who was above the waters of the river As he raised his right hand and his left toward heaven And swore by himself who lives forever that it would be for a time times and half a time And as soon as they finished shattering The power of the holy people and all the events will be completed as for me I heard but could not understand so I said my lord What will be the outcome of these events? He said go your way Daniel for these Words are concealed and sealed up until the end time now I won't go into all of that. He even gives the actual Date I mean the number of days and so forth. He's speaking specifically of israel. So Answering your question your question was Will the church be here at the beginning of the tribulation? Well, the tribulation is clearly as far as I see it I'm reading in my literal grammatical historic continuity that The the tribulation is for israel because the question is why Why would he bring this wrath upon? His believers his children well, he wouldn't the church would be taken out And so he writes this in first Thessalonians second Thessalonians are worried about it. So he rewrites him again. Let's know. No, he's kind of comforting them To let them know that it has not happened and you'll be a part of it Don't worry about it The church is the one that is going to be taken out the church will be made up of anybody Jew or Gentile who has placed their faith in Christ the tribulation is specifically targeted team The jews israel because of their disobedience remember god has determined that he is going to save israel Not all of israel But those who have placed their faith He's going to call some jews to place their faith in christ the same thing that he's done to the Gentiles He's going to cause those now It doesn't mean that only the jews Are only jews will be saved in the tribulation There will be gentiles will also be saved But the point the focus will be to israel This is why he calls it jacob's trouble and so that's his whole point and right now I was going to pull up some other stuff, but I thought I thought better of it because if I did We'd be here for a long time. So Anyway, thank you for the super chat clues production Let's see Let me click on a few of these also as well There are some that I have missed and so again What are my thoughts on larry reed? um He is uh He's more tabloid than anything else and then larry reed believes that lovia lias is a true prophet a true man of god You know, he's not which goes to his discernment No, at least I did not Thank you chai young cat. I appreciate that For god did not appoint us to suffer wrath but to receive salvation through our lord jesus christ. Amen No, I can't just for a second time to shine. I can't read word for word all of it I covered it in one of the other videos about the tribulation. So if you just type in Sound like some other people until you go go and ask these other questions I mean go and look it up on the on the channel, but I want to get to as many as possible Let's go from that. I'm going to answer that question to proverbs. Okay. Let's go back to answering some of these questions Okay How do you interpret isaac 14 5 through 7? Let's go to isaac 14 5 through 7 The lord has broken the staff of the wicked The scepter of the rulers which used to strike the people in fury with unceasing strokes Which to do the nations in anger with you know what? Let's do this. Let's read it in context. Let's go to verse one When the lord will have accomplished well, I'm sorry. When will the lord I can't even say it correctly when the lord will have compassion on jacob And again choose israel and settle them in their own land Then strangers will join them and attach themselves to the house of jacob The people will take them along And bring them to their place and the house of israel will possess them as inheritance In the land of the lord as male service and female service And they will take their captors captive and will rule over their oppressors 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 enslaved that you will take up this taunt against the king of Babylon and say How the oppressor has ceased and how the fury has ceased Here it is. Here's your here's your verses The lord has broken the staff of the wicked the scepter of the rulers Which used to strike the people with fury with unceasing strokes which subdue the nations in anger With unrestrained persecution the whole earth is at rest and is quiet the break They break forth in shouts of joy and so your question is What does that what does that and it almost seems like that would be a passage that People who are hebra israelites would would run to And so is that to say that god is going to Because they say they I think it's one of the paths they go to to say that this is a path where God is going to cause other folks to kind of be in Subjection to israel Well, there's a belief that it's already happened This is already already occurred. Now. How long was it and there's also a belief that there might be a A spiritual aspect of this but in terms of a physical aspect Well, that didn't fit in with the eschatological view That god has laid out in these other prophecies relating to the end the end times and with and with israel And so I don't think that people are going to now come back and be in subjugation of israel Now some of you can spoken and said that that this might also have to do with How israel is living right now the divided I won't say the divided nation because it's one nation But how you have gaza in the west bank? I can't say definitively, but that could be but is it to mean that that Gentiles will now all of a sudden come and be subjugated to them Or some hebra is like to even say that the white man is going to be enslaved. That's not going to happen That's not what that means at all. He says, uh, please answer our father says Honor thy father and mother. I'll give long life if anyone is but if anyone I'm sorry if someone by is reading this, please explain. Thanks. Cory Well, this is one one aspect about this passage in in Ephesians Ephesians. Yeah, Ephesians Uh, does it mean that if you honor your mother and father that It's a It's a barrier for you dying early. Well, there are kids that died early. There are kids that died who did honor their mother and father um, it's kind of a I won't say a suggestion, but it is Um, a good thing obviously and that will if you honor your mother and father Then obviously as a believer because we're speaking of believers that you would also honor your your earthly father One of the things that you see today is that and some of you all who have kids can testify to this is that sometimes kids They look at you as though you are too old That you are outdated That your ways of thinking are antiquated that get with the times pop and One of the things a little bounce I even had even with with my adult children And I'll say this to them Don't wear certain things. Don't do this and they'll look at me like daddy you're old Well, what should they do? Now I'm not I'm not super dogmatic anybody. I'm just using as an example. What should they do? Uh, no, I won't wear I won't wear this because daddy thinks that it's not appropriate now Does daddy love them? Sure daddy love them. They know they one thing they know is that I love them They should have enough foresight to know that there's a little bit more wisdom Um on this side of the ledger that on on their side because I've been through everything they've gone through Can call out can see it and I can see what what they're going to do and say in the next few years They you know how it is some you some of you parents can testify of this that your kids your parents I mean your children look at you Uh, and they might have some sort of belief in the way that you raise them and then they get older. What do they say? Um They start saying the same thing that you said they start talking the same way that you talk, right? Those things happen and so but if they do that if they'll do it to me Then it'll also be just as easy for them to do it to their earthly father Because what happens is culturally speaking we can take do the same thing Well, the bible didn't quite mean this when the bible because the bible speaks about women dressing modestly But we want to adapt today's version of modesty versus What what a modest looking woman today How she would be seen 30 years ago 20 years ago She wouldn't be seen as seen as modest, right? You know the the young ways they were the little tight leggings and so forth if you wore that out As your regular outfit not going to work out something like that back, you know in the 80s or something like that They would look at you differently They would and so our definitions have been skewed and so it's teaching us to Not just honor Him this earthly father and his earthly mother, but honor god That's how it flows. And so that's really where the long life comes from A adren is recruiting people to the reform side Thank you. Amber. I appreciate I appreciate the super chat. Thank you, sister Okay, back to some more questions People say gifts and calling is without repentance means that the holy spirit leaves and we can still operate in this That's not what that means No, uh, this is speaking of our salvation and that let's let's go to it What is that passage type right type right performance 11 Okay, let's put on the screen From the standpoint of the gospel. They are enemies for your sake But from the standpoint of god's choice They are beloved for the sake of the fathers for the gifts and the calling of god are revocable or irrevocable So what's that? What's that talking about? Remember what what the uh, the the topic at hand is in romans Especially specifically this passage, but really romans 9 10 11 Paul is speaking of who of what he's speaking of israel And his point and speaking about israel is that he what he wished that he could be a curse for his countrymen meaning His his kin of the flesh is his his his countrymen israelites Because at this point in time They are not Falling in they're not following him and they're not coming to the camp of christ Especially to the tune that the gentiles are and he says they will And to matter of fact, let's go back a little bit further. Let's look what he says in 20s or 20 Yeah, let's start 25 He says for I do not want you brethren to be uninformed of this mystery So that you will not be wise in your own estimation that a partial hardening Has happened to israel until The fullness of the gentiles has come in Going back what we talked about before I think that this is this is my eschatological view that the 70 weeks that were decreed these 677s the 70 periods of seven And it's interesting and i've covered this that when you look at how it's written in hebrew that He could have easily said 90 years could have easily but he said 77s and he says here's a block of sevens Here's another block and then this last block of seven Well, the the first portion up to the last block of seven the last seven is 69 weeks that takes us right up to the cross From the finishing of the wall and so forth right up to the cross We get to here And there is this pause That i believe the bible speaking of And i'm using the term pause to help us understand This is what we call This is where the the time of the gentiles paul is saying when the fullness of the gentiles has come When it's through what he's through with his focus on the gentiles And then the church is there the church is raptured up the church is taken away Then he turns his attention to israel and then that's why right now there's this partial hardening Of israel there's a spirit of stupor given to israel whereby Very few jews are coming to christ. There are some there always have been some in paul Iterates the fact that there are some jews matter of fact. He's a jew himself. And so he said it's not As though that they won't hear the gospel. He said i'm a jew myself. So clearly it's not Total that none of us are going to hear there are some that are coming in as a matter of fact The very first people to ever place their faith in christ the very first people to ever receive the holy spirit Were jews But he says this partial hardening is going to happen. Look what he says verse 26 says so israel will be saved Just as it is written the deliverer will come from zion. He will remove unguidedness from jacob This is my covenant with them when i take away their sins This he says this is my covenant with them. What is he speaking of? He's speaking of the new covenant with them Here he could have said this is my covenant with all of us No, he said this is my covenant with them and it's specifically harkening back to Jeremiah where the this this new the talk of the new covenant is brought up This is my covenant with them when i take their sins away So he's gonna because now we see the beginning of it happening with israel, but not fully When is it fully happening when he is through with the gentiles? Not totally there will be some gentiles who will come to place their faith in christ During when during this tribulation says from the standpoint of the gospel There are enemies for your sake, but from the standpoint of god's choice There it is There is choice and the greek word there is echelogame which is to choose or we get the word election They are beloved for the sake of the fathers for the gifts and calling of god Are irrevocable just as you once were disobedient to god But now have been shown mercy because of their disobedience So these also now have been disobedient that because of the mercy shown to you They also may now be shown mercy in an interesting while while They had became disobedient The gentiles have been shown mercy and then it's going to turn around and now then the jews will be shown mercy Just like we were chosen They were chosen they they have been chosen and will be chosen It's not like that god's calling that his plans just fallen apart. No, none of this called him by surprise. He had he knew this before time And that his calling and his gifting of israel of the nation because he will not forget as he literally just said About their fathers or for the sake of their fathers who abraham isaac and jacob remember he says that even though israel was disobedient He says i will not forget my covenant that i made with your fathers abraham isaac and jacob and so That's what that focus only has nothing to do with spiritual gifts whatsoever A lot of pentecostal and charismatics will use this passage but for that but that's not what it means at all If that helps hope it helps Could you please explain the mood in greek? I can't i want it won't be too exhaustive cg But here are the moods. There are there are a few of them Obviously have an active Um, you've got a passive voice. I'm sorry. I'm sorry Wrong thing. I'm thinking the voices the moods. You have what's called an indicative mood You also have what is called a subjunctive mood You matter of fact, let's do this You're gonna make me plot the Where is it? Uh Okay, let's do this. Let's do let's type in something Let's put it on the screen for you guys to see And let's make this bigger so you can see the different types of mood You have the indicative mood And I won't get into all of these and then you have these specific uses of the indicative The indicative is what I it's for lack of bare way of putting it. It's the the right now. It's what's happening. It's the fact This is this is it is what it is This is the the it it is what it is mood All right This is a statement of fact or are you with me? Then there's another mood. That's called the subjunctive mood The subjunctive mood represents Potentiality possibility are with me and there are different ways by the way if you look at those They're they're different uses of these just in the subjunctive mood. You've got The independent clauses you've got the Hortatory deliberative emphatic negation prohibitive subjunctive so forth You've got these types of of uses inside there Look at what you have inside indicative mood declarative indicative and a rise of indicative conditional potential Hortive cooperative There are different ways and it can become confusing if you focus on the mere number of uses But just like you have the indicative mood the subjunctive. You also have what's called the non indicative mood The thing about greek is greek is a little more precise It's a better language than than english english is what we call a bastardized language It's made up of obviously so many different languages And there are different rules that come into play and words just change meaning all the time Even we have what's called morphology where the words morph as we go throughout time and you have to adjust an account for that but One of the moves that you hear me talk about a lot. Oh, by the way, you also have the octave mood What else do you have you have the imperative mood imperative? This is you know kind of a kind of a A command making a demand And so those are the one two three four the five The five big moods That you can think of in greek Maybe one day i'll i'll do something Covering the moods. I try to cover the moods as we go when we look at a passage And the mood shows shows up then to try to explain it But to really do one over the moods It'd be kind of hard because everyone is not there There are there are channels that are specifically geared towards teaching greek Uh and teaching hebrew and it covers the different moves and you get to see the kind of nuance One of the one of the more fascinating things that you'll notice or you'll learn if you happen to learn greek is How these moves voices these tenses work and how it kind of opens up things in kind of our view Someone put it this way when you Matter of fact, i'll change it because it was different when he said he used to say that when you read the bible in english You're reading the black and white when you read it in greek or in hebrew. You see it in color hd Now i would say you you read it english in color Uh versus using the greek. You see it in 3d. You see it in 4k 8k. What have you? You get to see oh, this is what that word means One of the examples that i always use and i don't use it intentionally but When someone is trying to say that we are to pray in the spirit and it it edifies ourselves and they appoint to jude jude 20 and we look at it and say well, no, that's not what that means That's not how that is because if we go and look at the greek, it's clear Um, it's not you edify yourself. It's y'all edify each other and so That's one of the the the good things about greek. I told you before that there is 24 ways to say the 24 ways to say you and it does help Give you an idea of who's been spoken to and and why and making certain certain things more emphatic And so that's the cool thing about greek. It really is so Well, it'd be hard to it'd be it'd be really hard to do a lesson or a study on The greek moods i'll try to remember that as we go through some of the some of the lessons in the future To make sure that i bring those out as well Sherena loves okay, i'll do that Okay, there's a couple questions. Which one about the about the little children Let's see what will happen With little children in the tribulation will they be raptured if their parents are? We don't get enough answer We don't get enough of an answer from the scripture if you believe If you believe that when a child dies that that child goes to heaven Well, then i think the same would be would hold true in the rapture night. There is a there is a A woe so to speak. What are those those women who are pregnant and who are nursing? But i think that probably speaks about how bad the time is going to be how it's going to be hard for food And hard to find shelter and just physical safety. I don't think that's necessarily a spiritual issue And so i'm i'm i'm still in the camp that those who don't have the ability to choose christ That god will show this blessing towards them Because there's no rule that says that the the parents and the kids have to go to the same place The parent the parent can go to hell and the kid can go to heaven So it doesn't say enough someone asked earlier. What was a what's the passage that troubles me? Well, there's a question that troubles me because i i just don't know This whole issue matter of fact, let me say this going back to that question this whole issue of babies when when when uh When parents die i mean when babies die, where do they go? uh I would like the reason why this bothers me is because i would like to have more definitive passages on the matter to say This for a fact shows that babies who died go to heaven because we've had one and so I'd like to be able to point this passage and this passage they for a fact say so But the good news is We don't have a definitive passage that says that they don't go And so i'm confident in that as well. So that's one of those passages also. Let me see you said she had another question also I'm not sure which one you were asking for so maybe it's this one Um If you have a mental health illness and struggle with Intrusive unwanted thoughts will you still have to account for those for these thoughts? What about things like self-harm and suicide attempts? First of all what you described happens to people who aren't diagnosed with a mental illness or struggle That's all of us. We all have we all have intrusive thoughts And so what do we do with those with those those thoughts anything that that exhausts itself against against god? We cast those down how by praying by reading by meditating on the word. That's how we handle those things By finding I'm convinced this this why I think the power of the word is so wonderful by reading it and you at some point in time As you read the bible After a while things be gonna click like you know what? Yeah, that that makes sense and that that's my life also you might see for example You might wonder why things are happening to you but then you start reading about someone that things Things are happening to in the bible. It's okay. I see what god is doing with that person Maybe the same thing is happening with me and I see how that person Did not care so much about this world as much as he cares about the next world And that person found joy and peace and so maybe that's what I ought to do as well And so I'm convinced the more the more that you read the scriptures The more you do so and the more you you try to get closer to the lord by by reading by praying And so forth. I think that the time will come where things will just kind of almost Spirit should click So the mental illnesses that people go through they're not new People have been dealing with all sorts of mental attacks Since the beginning of time matter of fact, we even see the apostles paul say that we even Despair of life itself. That means we want we man. Let's just die Let's just die paul said uh to be with christ Um To to to to live with uh his christ to die his gain His point was if I died man, that's the better place to be But I I need to be here for a reason. I'm here for a reason and so this is nothing new now sometimes though We not all the cases not all cases guys. So don't jump on me when I say this but in some cases though we take our mental issues and Feed into them And push them as though that that they are that they're more intense now The mind is no different than it is now uh than it was then The things we go through matter of fact, let's talk about this for a second what went through 50 years ago 100 years ago 200 years ago Are a lot more difficult than what we go through today Because a lot of what we go through today is just for just having to deal with mere conveniences and who likes this who doesn't Like that's not getting things we want our life Versus back then The struggles tend to be with we're more need-based Um, I need a place to stay because these folks are trying to kill me Um, I am in slavery because of because of my skin color or I've been sold off Because my family didn't have enough money to keep me. I'm in danger of someone trying to kill me We don't have enough money To eat this year. There's been a there's been a drought. There's been a famine those sorts of things and so Sometimes it even helps if we look at those things like you know what? Yeah What I'm concerned about is nothing compared to what they're what they were concerned about so What do I think about just handing a person a gospel track versus telling them some of the gospel? I mean If you can engage a person that's better, but handing them a track is fine. Also that might be how a person initiates Themselves how to get themselves into a comfort zone of saying that here can I give you this and it may start a conversation? And then that's maybe how they how they jump into it I've done that I've done both ways. I've done it different sorts of ways And so there's there's no wrong way to to tell someone that Jesus loves you that he doubted for you There's no wrong way Uh, there's an always a better way because sometimes the track does a much better job than the speaking So I wouldn't impugn Either one I wouldn't I wouldn't they're not in competition One the track I've seen people place their faith in christ by just the track I told you guys about the girl The little girl who was in hospital with cancer and she pretty much made her own little track She went right on a little a little piece of paper and jesus loves you And they would keep that they'd look at it They would remember the fact that it was this girl with cancer who gave that she couldn't tell you any doctrinal things But the fact they had to look at And so they said I think it was 12 people look at they gave it like the christ as far as we know so There's there's nothing wrong either way. There's nothing wrong either way What's my thoughts on christians joining the military knowing that this nation stands and fights for wickedness? Well, there's not there's not a nation on the planet. They didn't that way There's not a there's not an there's not a moral nation on the planet Whether it be we're talking about america, whether it's canada, whether it's uk, whether it's jamaica Whether it's korea pick a korea whether it's iosan russia There's not there's no moral nation on the planet And so the question really then becomes what do I think about christians just joining the military? And I don't have a problem with that as well One because the bible doesn't the bible doesn't speak against as a matter of fact the bible uses military imagery In speaking about us. There are people who are christians who are in or part of the military God Fearing god-loving people who are in the military. There's nothing wrong with that Your job is just to help. I mean just to hope that the cause the greater cause triumphance triumphs Now I will say this right now Right now In terms of what we do with our military might and our military might is far superior than any other country on the planet Times 20 it really is If russia and china got together wanted to fight us militarily they wouldn't win Now they could they do some damage? Sure. It's not to say that we would win 47 or nothing But could they could they do some damage? Sure. Could we eliminate them? We sure could But they'd be hurt on both sides I think what we do with our military and what we do with our our influence Is far better than what other countries do could we if america wanted to if if america wanted to dominate the world In a way that let's say a china wants to or a north korea would or Russia would or any other dictator would If we wanted to do so we could If we wanted to if we wanted to have crushed russia a long time ago When the country went basically bankrupt we could have if we wanted to do the same thing we could have So I give us kudos. We do have some checks and balance even though This side of the ledger there's a bunch of crooks and immoral folks on this side of the aisle And their only competition are the other immoral wicked folks on the other side of the aisle And the fact that they don't like each other that they kind of keep each other in checks and balances That's a good thing There's a beauty in the way that the government was put together And i'm going back to my political science truth. That was my major in college, by the way There's a beauty in the way that the country was put together And so I think I think it's it's beautiful how it works sometimes It's also horrible the way it works sometimes too because again in the end in the end You still have fallen men. He says china got balloons It's hard to imagine these balloons sailing across the country when reagan was in office It's just it's hard to imagine that happening, but Oh, oh, y'all have another conversation. Those are for me. But yes, but How long will america be on the perch that it's on? I just don't know I just don't know it is I'm happy that i'm in america. I would much rather be here than any other country that that's for sure And so if you're going to be in an army, I guess it better be this one Madison says to add to my question. Can you explain? Hebrews 10 29 in light of one saved always saved the person said this disproved one saved always said because the world was The word was is used And i'm sorry used here as in the person was previously a christian and that wasn't so let's go to Hebrews 10 29 If I can spell Hebrews Again remembering who Hebrews the book is written to why it's written to them. He says how much How much severe punishment do you think he will deserve? Who has trampled underfoot the son of god and has regarded As unclean the blood of covenant by which he was sanctified And has insulted the spirit of grace. Let me look at something real Here is the point remember I made this statement before First of all, he's talking to israel. He's talking to these jews Who have supposedly have placed their faith in christ by the way by the way One thing we have to stop doing is when we see a passage and it's written to the church or to the body of believers Do not think that when they wrote that and they said to the church that The writer did not believe that there were some people who were not actually saved there Okay There's never been a history in time where a group of people they were all 100 percent Sold out or on war with the lord not even the disciples did that we had one guy who wasn't right and so Well, why would he say to the church? Well because he's right to the church That's who you sit the letter to for it to be read amongst the people Like in james 5 19. He says it's written to to the believers, but he says any among you So if there's somebody in your hearing or amongst you or that frequency or Your gatherings if there's any among you who walks away or who leaves or turn Let the person know who turns his soul turns him back saves his soul from death Now on this passage, how much more severe do you think? He will deserve who has trampled underfoot the son of god This is the person who understands what has been happened or what has happened as a result of This new covenant for them and that there's a better high priest. There's a better scapegoat. There's a better Preciation there's a better blood bought sacrifice for them. How much more this person after willfully sitting knowing this Then that particular person because we Continue the exact same train of thought for if we go on sinning willfully after receiving this knowledge is understanding There no longer remains a sacrifice for sins 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 How much more severe punishment do you think? Will he deserve he will deserve who has trampled underfoot? The son of god and has regarded as unclean the blood of the covenant which he sanctified now He has trampled On he has seen i'm sorry and has regarded as unclean the blood of the covenant which he sanctified Now the which he sanctified Here's the problem with with what the person's asking and i want you all to see this This is why you all are tuned in to the smart christians channel because we're going to look at the passage Which was sanctified is the question which is what their focus focused on really what they're looking at is by which he was sanctified By which he was sanctified now what was sanctified and you might want to get away from the word he Let's put it back on the screen Let's see. Here's the word for covenant How much more that was trampled By the blood of the covenant that was regarded as unclean In or by Which was sanctified? So what was sanctified? Question what was sanctified? Well, this is in the Let's see. This is referring to the antecedent the covenant. This is what was sanctified The covenant was sanctified by what by the blood. Look at it again. How much more severe punishment do you think he will deserve? Who has trampled underfoot the son of god and has regarded as unclean the blood of the covenant by which he was sanctified Or by the way, the word what was is not there in the greek The word was not there now. It's the heiress which is referring to the the past tense So the errant the heiress this covenant was sanctified by the blood and has insulted the spirit of grace now We know this isn't the person that was saved. How do we know this is not a person that was saved? Well, because if we go on looking continuing on to verse 32 Remembering the former days when after being enlightened you endured a great affliction of sufferings partly being made a public spectacle Look what he says verse 34 for you show sympathy to the prisoners and accept the joyfully the seizures Of your property knowing that you have for yourselves a better possession Let's drop down for you have need of endurance so that when you have done the will of god You may receive what was promised for yet in a little while He who was coming will come and will not delay But my righteousness my righteous one shall live by faith and if he shrinks back my soul has no pleasure in him But we are not of those who shrink back. So if he's saying the person Was sanctified and no longer is If we're going to say this is talking about a person who was saved And no longer is well paul or not paul the writer nullifies that in verse 39 when he says that we are not like those That's not us So you can't say this is describing a person who Was sanctified no longer is by the way. He literally just said he lived if we read if we read earlier He literally just said that we are being sanctified. We've been perfect perfected those who are being sanctified So he's not saying the person was sanctified as a matter of fact What was sanctified? The object of the sanctification was the covenant just by the just by the grammatical context of this The object of what the antecedent of what was sanctified is the covenant not the person are you with me? Okay, let me let me start running through these a lot faster because you don't have as much time. Um Christian i'm i won't cover it now, but there i'm going to do a remake of video Uh regarding the sons of god and the daughters of man and the neflin and so forth I do not believe I do not believe that these were angels who came down And pro created with with me. I don't think that god gave angels the dna To do so angels don't have the sexual organs to do so So what about wait a minute? They wanted to come in and have sex with the angels In in genesis with lot. Yeah, but the angels didn't want to have sex with them It's not because they wanted to didn't mean that they could remember these are angels Uh, and they do not take husbands and wives They don't marry and so if we think that that's what happened in genesis 6 That they were getting married. Well, why would angel who is always who's also some of the various being this fallen angel? Why is he entering into a relationship of a marriage? So to speak was there a was there a cut between the angels and the woman? No, uh, and again and again These these giants that folks say are a result of those These giants after the flood still continued So, uh, but I will give a more a detailed answer on that later on Let's see Do I think that uh second Samuel 12 23 when david says his child can't come to him? But he is going to go to him as a no, I don't I don't I would not use that as a As an argument for one saved always say I don't I don't see that there And I believe in ones. They've always saved help me with my seminary class if uh, They all believe in women pastors. They continuously twist first Timothy to 12 through 14, you know, you need to get a new seminary You need a new seminary, but you're at the one that you're at go ahead and finish the courses and so forth But let's go to first Timothy Let's go to first Timothy Excuse me But I did not allow a woman to teach or exercise authority over a man But to remain silent before it was Adam who was first created then Eve And it was not Adam who was deceived, but the woman being deceived fell into transgression What exactly how how are they twisting? I've seen some different ways that folks have twisted it And so I'd be I'd be glad to hear interested to hear and how they're twisting if they're doing a different way A lot of times what they do is they'll say that this was just cultural This is just speaking of them Well, the problem is though, it's not just in first Timothy That he's speaking of this They say well, yeah, but at this time it was likely that Timothy was an emphasis It's all going in emphasis. Well, he also covers us in first Corinthians as well And the thing is this though, this was a letter. This was a guide to Timothy as he's planning churches As him being a pastor and a guide to other pastors Oh, by the way, we see it clearly to Titus and to Timothy That the qualifications of these elders or these pastors as well as the deacons is that they must be a male and so What's happening is a downplay of the word of God To make it more culturally relevant. I would keep I would continue to ask the pastor or the pastor but the professors Why do you think This has changed. What is it about the word of God that you think needs to be corrected by you? I would I would I would be I did a lot of pushback personally I would give a lot of pushback personally There is an urgent need for biblical churches in the u.s. Would you consider A church planning ministry not as a planning here here here here here. I don't know that's what I would do Who knows? again The me planning a church is still very much on the table so What do I think of greg lory? I have an opinion already, but I want to I don't know what to make of greg lory I I used to listen to some things of his back in the day. That's when I was in prison I can't remember what I used to listen to him say though I honestly can't and so I know he's Folks have made some comments and statements about him lately, but I just haven't paid attention I don't know How would you refute someone who says there there's a second baptism of the holy spirit by going to 1st Corinthians 12? Paul says that all of us All of us have been baptized into the spirit That necessarily means everyone who has professed their faith in christ From day one the first second the first minute the first hour day week. What have you all of us have been baptized and so And by the way, there's there's one baptism. It's not a second baptism and so That part of spirit It's just them wanting to say that it's the the charismatic or pentecostal way There's whole tearing for the holy spirit getting a second a second infusion And a lot of that comes from or some of that comes from when jesus breathed on them and said receive the holy spirit He's not saying that they're going to do it right now. He's telling them what they're going to do it We know so because then he tells them and acts one later on that you will receive the holy spirit Why would he tell them that you will receive the holy spirit if we already have received it? So Why we don't have to plead the blood? And and to decree and declare well first of all None of those are the bible We don't there's there's nowhere in the bible where we plead the blood. There's no there's there's not even a phrase There's not even an old testament phrase of that. We don't plead the blood I do understand when folks try to say that i'm covered by the blood But I can't make a person or say something that's covered by the blood just by me saying so Either something is of god or it's not and me pleading the blood Or not doesn't do anything to change that this decree and declaring only god can do that god is now If I got power over let's say my house. I decree that we're going to watch so-and-so tonight Okay, I declare that my daughter is going to go and clean her room That's different But we don't have power over the world like that in our words and that's just a that's just people trying to make themselves like god And we get in trouble if they could if they could decree and declare so much why are they why is it? Why are they in a why are they in a position to have to decree and declare? Think about it It should make sense if I have the ability to decree and declare Then here it is 2023 and I'm decreeing and declaring something. Why did not decree and declare that in the past? I decree and declare that I will live Um, I don't know an abundant life That I will be blessed in the city blessed in the fields blessed when I come when I go I'm decree and declare now or why am I just now decreeing that now? What because I have a financial need if I had the ability to do so And if it was true, then I would not have that financial need right now I would have taken care of that in the past So it's just a way of people wanting to feel good about themselves someone told them a bill sold them a bill of goods and they're buying it Rather than reading their own words Yeah, but try I saw that again. You need to leave. I'm just I'm I'm curious as to what seminary don't don't tell us But I'm just curious as to what seminary you're going to Uh, but but you know what's happening though more and more you're seeing Cultural issues pop up in even sound seminaries What's happening is the people that were more staunch And who guarded the word more in some of these seminaries they were tiring. They're dying off And the thing about about any place of academia being a seminary being at regular college is People like to be profound because they like writing books and having their papers read And if it's saying or stating the same thing over and over again And well, why would I buy that what I've got this over here? This is the same thing. So I want to I want to say something more profound that gets attention Why are tongues so abused and Misunderstood because they're easy to abuse Again, the problem tongues would not be abused if people who were hearing them speak these tongues read their bible They would say that's not tongues sit down But we don't do that Also because we have a lot of christians who are just afraid to confront sin Or and abuse It's an it's an issue of people wanting to be more spiritual Which is fine. We also want to be more spiritual pauses if you have a zeal For the spirit then desire The one that edifies the body And so whatever you're doing if it's not edifying the body. Well, then it's not it's not of god It's not it's not about of the spirit But because we have a misunderstanding what tongues are the one anyone gets up and then Or whatever it is. I can even you know my my tongue ability has has been lost Shuttle, but I can't I can't even do it tongues anymore. The lord has delivered me from the ability even fake a tongue but When you hear that You should because you read the scriptures like that's not right But if I if I think that that is okay, then when I hear somebody do it. Yeah, that person's in the spirit And he just now he just smacked his wife She just cheated on her husband He just stole something But he's over his speaking tongue. So the spirit is in this person so bad. So, I mean so heavy In spite of all of the crap that he's done. Okay Well, I would say this is if the apostles were a gift to the church like other gifts and the apostles stopped being given By the holy spirit How can we be continuationists? And say that all the gifts continued until the day well the gifts the apostles weren't the givers of the gifts number one But now certain gifts were given to the apostles and the apostles were given to That they were the foundation by which their body was being built upon And so just like the gospel is a gift the word of god is a gift it's still being given out so to speak spiritual gifts are for This is the holy spirit working in us where there is no one of authority around so to speak So for example, if let's say tongues Someone is actually Using by the way, I must say this david you need a haircut I don't know if if everyone on the on the chat see this david you need a haircut I'm uh, I'm rebuking your afro and your hair And You need a haircut. Listen just come on get with the times and go aerodynamic and get sleek Yeah, you you don't need all that wind resistance on your head that being said But what they left us is never-ending What the spirit would do if I'm not saying they do If a person does have a particular spiritual gift by the way, there are gifts that are still being used love knowledge helping people That's an old pic. Okay. Well, you need to update that david you need to update that get get you on where You know where your j5 is not, you know, you're bald now Wait a second. Wait a second. Wait a second. Wait a second. Hold on. You just messed up the whole you messed up the whole thing If you're bald now, what is it? What are you desiring to pass? Listen, listen, don't be like lots of wife looking back Put the bald picture up. That's what we want Put the ball. Listen, I had afro too back in the day. Put the bald picture up You're messing with everything up now. Anyway But let's say a person has a particular gift that we think might have ceased If it's true Let's just say if it's true even for you guys that are complete cessationist if it's true The point of it being used is for someone to hear the gospel in their language If there's a possibility of someone Needing to have that gift exercise with them fine. I don't have a problem with that gift still being being in play That's why I I think we probably ought to get away from the term cessationist and continuationist and let's just be bible Because whatever we say whatever we say Should line up with the scriptures Yeah, senior comrade. Wait a second. You got afro now You you have listen you have a little hispanic afro, but 1970 before he had afro By the way, did anyone have a curl back in the day? I I didn't didn't know Cheshire, Ryan, did you have a curl back in the day? I need to know I'm trying to try to figure something out here. Did you have a curl back in the day? I'm talking about not a dry one Michael Jackson curl Hold on. Let me oh wait. Hold on. Let me ask this. Do you think That there are negative consequences in heaven For those who might be living in disobedience, but don't return to christ Or do you figure they just never return? I'm trying to understand. Are you saying people who are in heaven who've done something on earth? Because that's what you're asking that there are no there's nothing negative for anyone in heaven We're still trying to figure out how this this issue of rewards and so forth might work. We don't know We we just don't know which one we probably shouldn't figure that try to figure that we don't know The bible can give us ample details when paul says There's a crown of righteousness laid up for me Does that mean this for everybody? Does that mean that there There are rewards. How does that work? We we we don't know we don't know So i'm not sure how to answer the question. I'm not sure if I totally understand it No, I did not have a perm back in the day. No, I did not thank god for my father My father was one of those who said that you could not have one of these crazy hairstyles No One day one day my mother upset my father that score one to daddy because You know you back let's we're talking early 70s and I had a little a little afro And she didn't want to have to comb it and so forth and I hate I hate to get my hair comb and so she Grabbed it platted up and put in little cornrows. I I hated I hated it. I hated it Thankfully my father saw it. He's like nope take that out or I'll cut it myself Amen, daddy. I had cornrows one day As a three-year-old That was that he took care of that What are your thoughts on jeff durbin and james white? I like jeff durbin james white Do I agree with them totally uh on some doctrinal things? No on this issue of one Specifically israel replacing the church. No, that's not that's not in the bible It's just not in the bible and I I get that that james white has a big brain and so forth And he understands the language and so forth But there is no there's no passage in hebrew greek or english where israel replaces the church. It's just not there But their passion Yeah, I love I loved Listen the work that jeff durbin and apology is doing in terms of abortion Amen, we need a thousand more of them. We do and again for the most part I am with them but then again also for the most part i'm with folks who disagree with them Doctrally as well, so He said I had ass Is there I'm going to do another video on this. Is there a such thing as free will There's a such thing as Volition the ability we have a will we have ability to choose we clearly we have a will And clearly our will goes contrary to god's will even even to those who are um saved Even being saved does not mean that your will vanquishes and that you no longer have a desire to do some things paul paul brings us out in roman 7 The things that I will to do I don't the things I don't want to do I do So we but there's something working in us There is something working in us and every now and then that's something working working in us does push us a little bit harder than we push How does that work how to explain that you really it is so difficult to explain Exactly how the spirit moves us. Does he ever pick up my arm and you put this there and pick up this arm and Does he ever he can Has he done so I think there have been times in my life that it feels like yeah I don't know are there times where I can fight against the holy spirit Well, yeah, because paul says do not quench or the word to suppress the holy spirit Which means that there are times that I can do something too But to think and act as though the holy spirit is inactive in our lives is a lie in our front of the holy spirit So Yeah morning start different background things have changed things have changed As the charismatic say god is doing a new thing That's one of the things we're not sure of Lisa we're we are just not sure what does it now obviously the sinners are going to have to get an account But we also are going before a judgment seat as well How does that work? just didn't say It just that He doesn't give us a full I would say this though It'll be the worst Revealing that I'll ever have in my life I'll be nervous so to speak even though I know that I'll be with him forever I'm still gonna be nervous once just being in his presence But he didn't say enough he did and I think that's the one thing that we have a hard time dealing with Not being able to accept that god didn't tell us all that we want to know about a subject And so how was that going to be at least we just don't know and anyone who says otherwise they're guessing We're just we're just guessing so anyway Okay, uh, I clicked the button before I before as I finished reading your your comment Okay What is the difference between a believer disobeying the word because of their interpretation and a believer being stupid? Well, the difference has everything to do wait a minute They're kind of the same not using the word stupid, but just being ignorant Sometimes we see something Now there's a difference between those who are doing it Intentionally as well They I'm disobeying the word because of my interpretation or I'm just stupid I'm ignorant and paul says I don't want you to be ignorant concerning spiritual things So we can be ignorant concerning a lot of things we can be ignorant concerning a great many things And so I would say There's not a lot of difference between those two there is a difference between the person who was doing it intentionally Which has to do with that person's heart so How do you dispute someone claiming to be christian but heavily into Manifest what is manifesting by the way? I keep what what does that mean guys? I have been wondering what the yeah mark still got the still got the cult scope up. What does manifesting mean? I don't think you don't tell me about demon man demons manifesting. Are you? I don't think it's what you're asking so um, should Shreese tell me what that what does that mean or someone else tell me what that what does that mean? Uh, when did sunday worship become uh, or when did sunday become the day of worship? The day of worship has always been every day Uh, the apostles began or the people began meeting on sundays the first day of the week to kind of have everything in common Almost like a planning session. We have everything in common here. These people need some food These folks need this these folks need that these folks need some money The beginning of the week. Let's pray. Let's worship. Let's sing all these things and so we kind of it caught on obviously wasn't a sin because The leaders of the church were doing it but but if a person still wants to Let me just say this You can go to church on saturday No problem You can go to church on saturday if you want to If you mandated and say that we all have to go on saturday Well, the only ones that were going on saturday were or a collective worship on saturday If you call it that or the jews and they did so under the law so Thank you delivered by spirit um Thank you for the super chat Will we all be 33 at heaven? 33 33 33 Oh, that was just before Um, I started my my my uh federal tour You know, I before I started touring the federal prison system So that was just before then uh I don't know I had hair then I had hair on top of my head at 33 I'm gonna cover uh jesse. I'm gonna cover seventh day at venice Within the next week or two probably two What is it going to take for all of us to uh to get along to be like rodney king? Uh heaven That's what it's going to take heaven. Okay speaking something into existence So can a person be a christian if they are constantly speaking things into existence, which means Can a person be a christian and do things ignorantly? Yes, they can We can do things mistakenly and not know that we're not supposed to do it So and it just takes us um having someone correcting us And so they they can now after a while if they're if they're wise enough They'll see I keep manifesting I keep speaking things. That's a new word. I guess manifesting I keep speaking things into existence And nothing is being spoken into existence. Well, then I gotta quit paying money to these people who keep telling me to do so now It also doesn't mean that there are actually saved too you can Because there are some people who come to christ For what they think he can give them And meaning not salvation but stuff Hard to imagine they might actually be christians Because they came for other motives not for him. Okay. Thank you, steven The problem is there's a whole lot of there are a lot of people who are saved who are doing some things like But thankfully they have we have the holy spirit to grow us To grow us and thankfully we've got enough people but we don't have enough we don't have enough people who are Standing for the truth and who are pushing it because what happens? Let me just say this youtube wise Doesn't bother me though But when you say something someone and they disagree with you They or they think that you're being mean or they think that you're being judgmental There will be a lot of comments coming at you and if you're not careful you can say Well, maybe I'm saying it the wrong way. Maybe I'm just being misunderstood. Maybe they're right. No, no There's nothing wrong with calling out sin Calling out sin is a good thing and you can never do enough of a good thing now Should you call out sin? Holy solely only I wouldn't say that. No You're going to hell those pants are too tight. You're going to hell because of your earrings going to hell. You're just going to So no, we we we don't we don't do that We're not this guy Yeah, we don't want to be that guy We don't want to be that guy But we do need to let people know that hell is very real But also you want to let people know that heaven is very real as well Can you explain the phrase blessed and highly favored? That's just some that's just a A phrase that's kind of caught on how are you doing? Oh, I'm blessing highly favored Okay, now when you say it just act like it if you say you if you believe you're blessing highly faithful act like it But But uh, it's not it's not necessarily I guess is a bit if you're saved you're blessed you're highly favored if you're safe So there's nothing wrong with saying it though But it does become like like a little catchphrase. We just say kind of in a knee jerk fashion. How are you fine? Thank you, Nicholas. Appreciate that. All right, let me get one or two more in here Uh, and do everybody's breath. Thank you. So more please do a video on the four views of sanctification You're gonna have to remind me later. I've got a ton to do He said the drummer should have threw the cymbals at him What do you do you the drumming the pastor comes grab the sticks out of your hand you just that's the pastor Oh, you said i'm going to hell If I hit these if these cymbals and they snare one more time i'm going to hell so i'm uh, all right Let me leave it alone Daniel, why do you think Why by the way colorful colorful picture like that? Why do you think do you do you think he do you think they actually received the Holy Spirit at that moment? Then tells them to go and to await for the Holy Spirit. Well, this is how we know that he's speaking by the way The the word that's used there Allows for it to be pointing to the future That didn't necessarily mean that it did it could be say y'all. Yeah, you all receive it right now Or it can be translated as you will receive the Holy Spirit Well, how do we know which way it should be taken? Well, because they did not receive it because he tells them later go and await for the Holy Spirit Then he shows up and tells him in a few days it acts when a you shall receive the Holy Spirit and then what happens They do receive the Holy Spirit. So that's why we can say that Yeah, glenn. Yeah, you can be the 144 000 isn't the only number of people. They're going to be safe That 144 000 they're that's only the those are only Jews There will be Gentiles that will be saved as well No, it's not a Dallas Cowboy hoodies. No, this is a Dallas Christian college. Um, Sure, just not no No, let me end on this Where I just saw it Oh Are you supposed to give money to the poor if you suspect or no, it's going Uh, uh to drugs. I wouldn't do that. No, don't don't cash your pearls for this wine. That's a that's a pretty easy Um application that also means just don't give them, you know Folks that aren't listening to you and you're trying to give them the good news and so forth But if you know that they're definitely going it's going to drugs or something like that No, now you're enabling them now if you're giving or you want to give me like I wonder if he's going to actually buy some food You're not sure but you just wonder well, then don't let that be the reason why you don't Because you don't know where the money that you give anywhere else goes So but just you give and then if they abuse it if you don't have any idea No reason to believe to suspect they just give they just give and see What, um Um, see how they do it. Let God let God deal with that So now you know you listen you you were trying to start some problems Yeah, you were trying to start some listen And I'm trying not to shoot at the cowboy fans I'm trying I'm trying not to shoot at you guys What's that told you guys I'm a I'm a football prophet. I told you guys come february It's gonna be the same thing It's gonna be the same thing The same way same little uh sour look on your face The only thing though if I can't have a colts win a cowboy's loss does just as well Yeah I am I'm in the pre-trip camp CJ says leave him alone. I'm leaving. He started it by having that that uh, he started it I'm in the pre-trip pre-trip camp So and I I've covered that in a video. I'll cover it more as well so Anyway guys, I thank you so much. Um, I will see you probably maybe later on this afternoon not live But later on this afternoon as well as that by the way, alice net is good too Just if you speculate that the person is up to something and you want to just buy them food That's cool too. Although I did see this. I don't know how to feel about this. I don't know how to feel about this Where the guy is out there panhandling for food or for money And the people say well, I don't have any I don't have any cash. He said well, I take cash out I said it's like wow, okay What do you do? You got a cell phone So now and I and I and one guy did say though the reason why he has a cell phone is because He is looking for a job and he has to have a cell phone in order to get the job. And so Again, if you don't have any reason to suspect like I said If you don't have or or adren said if you don't have any reason to suspect then just give Out of your heart and then see what happens if you want to give buy them some food buy them some food Buy them some clothes things like that and then you'll kind of see if they're going to reject it Then you you might know but uh Don't let uh anything spoil the fact that you want to give You're not giving to hopefully not giving to say look guys. I'm giving I got my cell phone out. Look guys I'm giving to this guy, right? That's not what you're doing. So Wow, which one there's like a thousand of them. There's a thousand these uh african passers who are You think we got it bad here in america They africans haven't there's some I would be afraid to do it in africa because there's some folks in africa that kill you a lot easier than they would here in america I'm not gonna I wouldn't play with with god in that fashion. Anyway, but anyway, aflacow aflacow is horrible. He just But listen, he's living his best life now. The next life will be a little hot I guarantee anyway guys look forward to seeing you all later. You all be blessed
