And First
Timothy chapter 4 verse 4
00:00:01.98\00:00:03.16
is the topic of today's program
00:00:03.63\00:00:05.29
and the Bible says:
Every creature of God is good,
00:00:05.78\00:00:08.60
and nothing to be refused,
00:00:09.20\00:00:10.97
if it be received
with thanksgiving,
00:00:11.32\00:00:13.38
does it mean that we can
eat anything we wanna eat.
00:00:14.05\00:00:16.27
Well, today
we're going to explore
00:00:17.16\00:00:19.30
that text so stay with us.
00:00:19.31\00:00:20.78
Hi, welcome to Abundant Living,
00:00:49.15\00:00:50.81
I like to introduce my
beautiful bride and wife,
00:00:50.82\00:00:54.14
your name is, I'm
his bride and his wife
00:00:54.81\00:00:58.60
Paula Eakins.
Paula Eakins better
00:00:58.61\00:01:00.50
known as honey,
that's what people used
00:01:00.51\00:01:03.88
to say to me they
always see me on the street
00:01:03.89\00:01:05.90
they will say things
like what your real name?
00:01:05.91\00:01:08.18
Because Curtis calls
you honey all the time on
00:01:08.76\00:01:10.90
this show and I said
my name is Honey Paula,
00:01:10.91\00:01:13.34
Honey Paul or Paula
Honey, either or, either
00:01:13.35\00:01:16.30
or we're gonna just do
it just for the TV's sake,
00:01:16.31\00:01:18.35
but I do that at
home too while we are,
00:01:18.36\00:01:20.54
that is true, alone
together, that is true.
00:01:20.55\00:01:23.16
Well, anyway
today's topic is entitled
00:01:23.75\00:01:26.40
"Every creature of God is good,
00:01:26.90\00:01:30.72
and nothing to be
refused, if it be received
00:01:31.29\00:01:34.97
with thanksgiving."
Now, of course if you been
00:01:35.33\00:01:37.76
with us for the last few weeks,
00:01:37.77\00:01:39.19
we've been
exploring some key Bible text,
00:01:39.20\00:01:41.93
that's often been misinterpreted
00:01:42.42\00:01:44.31
and seemly given us
justification of any,
00:01:45.17\00:01:47.91
anything we wanna
eat and this is without
00:01:47.92\00:01:50.73
exception this
text before today.
00:01:50.74\00:01:53.16
But again we want to
review the last text that
00:01:53.55\00:01:56.53
we cover which
is found in Matthew
00:01:56.54\00:01:58.37
chapter 15 and
verse 11 Jesus said:
00:01:58.38\00:02:01.28
It's not that which
goeth into the mouth that
00:02:02.15\00:02:04.10
defileth a man;
but what comes out that
00:02:04.11\00:02:07.01
defileth a man. A
lot of people have taken
00:02:07.02\00:02:09.03
that text too, to say
well really just a matter
00:02:09.04\00:02:11.49
what you eat, is what
you say, that's a thing
00:02:11.50\00:02:14.29
a defileth a man. I
think we cover that quite
00:02:14.30\00:02:16.93
thoroughly didn't we honey?
00:02:16.94\00:02:17.91
I think so and what was
the issue of that passage,
00:02:17.92\00:02:20.72
what was Jesus talking about?
00:02:21.22\00:02:22.56
Now, of course they
want to say it was all about
00:02:23.08\00:02:25.35
the washing of the
hands, the special way,
00:02:25.36\00:02:27.18
we're not washing their hands,
00:02:28.29\00:02:29.43
but we weren't
washing the hands at all.
00:02:30.28\00:02:31.32
I know about that,
then they have been
00:02:32.10\00:02:34.06
washing their hand, but
not the way that Pharisees
00:02:34.07\00:02:36.73
and the Scribes. I
remember one thing that,
00:02:36.74\00:02:39.76
that last and I
remember all of it,
00:02:39.77\00:02:41.46
but the one thing I
thought was so funny
00:02:41.47\00:02:43.39
was when you said
that the Pharisees actually
00:02:43.40\00:02:45.61
they had no water,
they went through demotions,
00:02:45.62\00:02:48.35
now you know they
have run out over.
00:02:48.36\00:02:50.28
You know and that
just, it was interesting
00:02:50.64\00:02:52.79
to show you that
to just you can be so,
00:02:52.80\00:02:54.73
so strong, yes and so
established if they didn't
00:02:55.06\00:02:58.14
have any water they
had to still go through
00:02:58.15\00:02:59.96
demotions and that's amazing.
00:02:59.97\00:03:01.42
I remember of course
we told this to about
00:03:01.77\00:03:04.02
when I was in
surgical school at the hospital
00:03:04.54\00:03:08.01
there and we had to
wash out hands at the sink
00:03:08.02\00:03:10.06
and while we were
washing our hands a class
00:03:10.50\00:03:13.25
of 12 members in our new class.
00:03:13.26\00:03:14.87
Some of the experience
surgical text or surgeons'
00:03:15.25\00:03:18.79
assistant they be
walking by and they were start
00:03:18.80\00:03:21.20
singing the song and the song
00:03:21.21\00:03:22.62
goes something like this.
00:03:22.77\00:03:23.74
This is the way
we wash our hands,
00:03:24.13\00:03:26.49
wash our hands
and you know what?
00:03:26.50\00:03:29.42
The following year
with the next new class
00:03:29.43\00:03:31.91
came by, guess what?
All class was singing:
00:03:31.92\00:03:34.56
This is the way
we wash our hands,
00:03:35.13\00:03:37.42
but again it just
goes to show you that
00:03:37.70\00:03:39.74
this is basically
tradition and Jesus addressed
00:03:40.58\00:03:43.37
that issue in Matthew
chapter 15 and verse 11.
00:03:43.38\00:03:47.26
Now, we have
another text or scripture
00:03:47.77\00:03:49.95
there is often
misinterpreted and
00:03:50.30\00:03:52.52
this one of the most
popular text I've heard,
00:03:52.53\00:03:55.19
I mean you've heard
as well for people saying
00:03:55.20\00:03:58.04
we could eat
anything we want to eat
00:03:58.34\00:04:00.05
and this text is based
on that passage is also
00:04:00.40\00:04:04.33
found in First
Timothy chapter 4, verse 4.
00:04:04.34\00:04:06.34
Before we do that I'm
gonna read First Timothy
00:04:06.74\00:04:09.30
chapter 4 verses
1 and 3, if you have
00:04:09.31\00:04:13.94
your Bibles I've
asked you to read with me
00:04:13.95\00:04:16.57
if not you may
wanna jot these text down,
00:04:16.58\00:04:18.69
First Timothy
chapter 4, verses 1 and 3
00:04:18.70\00:04:22.11
the Bible says
verse 1: Now the Spirit
00:04:22.12\00:04:25.22
speaketh expressly,
that in the latter times some
00:04:25.23\00:04:29.32
shall depart from
the faith, giving heed to
00:04:29.33\00:04:32.18
seducing spirits,
and doctrines of devils.
00:04:32.19\00:04:35.71
Doctrines of
devils, that's pretty deep.
00:04:36.21\00:04:37.98
Number 3: Forbidding to
marry, now I'm just need
00:04:38.58\00:04:43.29
to pause therefore while
because this is not dealing
00:04:43.30\00:04:46.15
with today's topic but
there is one large group
00:04:46.16\00:04:50.56
of individuals or
institution that forbid
00:04:50.86\00:04:53.66
those members from
marrying and we sure
00:04:53.67\00:04:57.66
we know about
that group of church
00:04:57.67\00:04:59.91
is practice celibacy,s
again that is not God's
00:04:59.92\00:05:03.36
desire or God's will.
God said it is not well
00:05:03.37\00:05:06.37
that man should be
alone, but let's continue
00:05:06.38\00:05:08.36
verse 3: and commanding
to abstain from meats,
00:05:08.37\00:05:13.72
which God hath
created, now wait a minute now,
00:05:14.37\00:05:17.32
wait a minute, now the
Bible says in the latter
00:05:17.78\00:05:20.33
days some shall
depart from the faith,
00:05:20.34\00:05:23.06
giving heed to seducing spirits,
00:05:24.73\00:05:26.42
and doctrines of
devils. And then let's hear
00:05:26.88\00:05:29.72
in verse 11, no verse
3, and one is forbidding
00:05:29.73\00:05:32.43
to marry, now
other one is commanding
00:05:32.44\00:05:35.17
to abstain from meat,
which God hath created.
00:05:35.18\00:05:39.10
Now, we have
problem here honey, because
00:05:39.87\00:05:42.82
on Abundant Living
programs well we're not
00:05:42.83\00:05:45.32
really commanding
people to abstain from meat,
00:05:45.33\00:05:47.25
but we're educating people to
00:05:47.64\00:05:49.30
abstain from meat. And
base on this text here,
00:05:49.31\00:05:52.50
I guess we shouldn't doing this,
00:05:52.94\00:05:54.15
I mean all the
programs we take here on
00:05:54.16\00:05:55.79
Abundant Living in
other programs here
00:05:55.80\00:05:57.40
on 3ABN educating
people to abstain from meat.
00:05:57.41\00:06:00.19
And here it is in God's word,
00:06:00.66\00:06:02.29
abstaining to eat
meat; well we're not quite
00:06:02.99\00:06:07.71
what we doing is we giving,
00:06:07.72\00:06:08.98
we giving them tools,
oh! We're giving them tools,
00:06:08.99\00:06:11.63
we giving them
other alternatives,
00:06:11.64\00:06:13.21
to abstain from
meat, that's right.
00:06:13.92\00:06:15.53
We're giving
alternatives, now their choice
00:06:15.54\00:06:17.43
is what they
were want to eat meat
00:06:17.44\00:06:18.89
or not eat meat,
so we just give the
00:06:18.90\00:06:20.55
information and they
make their own decisions.
00:06:20.56\00:06:22.93
Okay, alright so it's
a matter of education,
00:06:23.29\00:06:26.06
education, okay now
other word meat here,
00:06:26.37\00:06:28.73
now that's interesting
isn't it? Because people
00:06:28.74\00:06:31.90
will think that does
the meat here it means
00:06:31.91\00:06:35.03
flesh foods or
what? Well, let see,
00:06:35.04\00:06:38.26
let see meat, flesh
food, I'm thinking of
00:06:38.27\00:06:41.36
Genesis 1:29, because
I think every time the
00:06:41.37\00:06:44.89
Bible mention the
word meat, people assume
00:06:44.90\00:06:48.54
it's referring to
flesh meats, lamb, beef,
00:06:49.08\00:06:52.61
pork, chicken, fish whatever.
00:06:52.62\00:06:54.82
Well, that's why I
like the word of God,
00:06:55.22\00:06:56.69
okay, once again,
once again line upon line,
00:06:56.70\00:06:58.81
precept upon
precept, here a little,
00:06:59.26\00:07:01.55
there a little, okay.
So, you cannot just take
00:07:01.90\00:07:04.23
one verse and try
to run with it, okay,
00:07:04.24\00:07:06.34
alright, let's
look at Genesis 1:29,
00:07:06.35\00:07:09.53
so now just this text
also have the word meat in it.
00:07:09.54\00:07:12.58
Oh! Yes, it does,
okay let's read that text
00:07:12.59\00:07:14.45
and see the gospel have to say.
00:07:14.46\00:07:15.55
And God said, Behold,
I have given you every
00:07:15.56\00:07:18.60
herb bearing seed,
which is upon the face
00:07:18.61\00:07:21.97
of all the
earth, and every tree,
00:07:21.98\00:07:23.63
in the which is the
fruit of a tree yielding seed;
00:07:24.03\00:07:27.06
to you it shall
be for meat, meat.
00:07:27.37\00:07:31.69
Wait a minute,
amen, now in that verse
00:07:32.09\00:07:34.13
you said I have
given you every herb
00:07:34.14\00:07:36.49
bearing seed, and
every fruit yielding tree
00:07:36.50\00:07:39.60
to you it shall be
for what? Meat, meat,
00:07:40.00\00:07:45.46
so the word meat
is the synonymous word
00:07:45.47\00:07:48.03
that can mean food,
vegetables, fruit period.
00:07:48.04\00:07:53.10
So, because there is no
meat listed in that verse,
00:07:53.88\00:07:56.34
no, so every time
we see the word meat
00:07:56.35\00:07:58.53
in the Bible it
does not necessarily mean
00:07:58.54\00:08:00.82
flesh foods, that's
right and quite frankly
00:08:01.41\00:08:04.23
most cases it does
not even mean flesh foods.
00:08:04.72\00:08:07.72
So, when we see this
word here the word meat
00:08:08.29\00:08:11.68
comes from the Greek
word broma which simply
00:08:11.69\00:08:14.42
means as my wife
is already said food,
00:08:14.43\00:08:16.87
so we can read that
text as such commanding
00:08:17.15\00:08:19.83
to abstain from
foods. And this is true back
00:08:19.84\00:08:22.40
in Paul's day that
they were some individuals
00:08:22.41\00:08:24.75
who say that they were
not going to eat certain
00:08:25.05\00:08:27.92
foods during
certain times of the year.
00:08:27.93\00:08:30.21
Not necessarily
flesh foods, so that's how
00:08:30.73\00:08:33.43
we should read this
text, but now the key
00:08:33.44\00:08:35.42
text here is verse
4, this is a text that
00:08:35.43\00:08:38.76
most people tend to
misinterpreted verse 4.
00:08:38.77\00:08:42.29
Here we go: For every
creature of God is good,
00:08:42.58\00:08:48.67
and nothing to be
refused, if it be received
00:08:49.55\00:08:54.22
with thanksgiving. Now,
honey this is God's word,
00:08:54.49\00:08:58.95
God's word is
true it cannot lie,
00:09:00.23\00:09:03.23
why? Because the
Bible cannot lie why?
00:09:03.24\00:09:05.22
Because the God
says I cannot lie
00:09:05.23\00:09:08.64
and I change not,
therefore the Bible says
00:09:08.65\00:09:11.85
every creature of
God is good. I think what
00:09:12.21\00:09:16.08
we do sometime is
we add two additional
00:09:16.09\00:09:19.12
words to that
phrase and what words are
00:09:19.13\00:09:22.14
those honey? For
food, so we assume that
00:09:22.15\00:09:27.33
the Bible means every
creature of God is good
00:09:27.34\00:09:29.88
and we at for
food or to eat that's
00:09:29.89\00:09:34.20
what something on
our part sometimes.
00:09:34.21\00:09:36.25
But it is not really
in the original text of
00:09:36.26\00:09:39.08
the scripture and I
think when we do that,
00:09:39.09\00:09:41.13
then we can rest
for sure that we are
00:09:41.71\00:09:43.35
misinterpreting
scripture and it's not accurate
00:09:43.36\00:09:46.29
at all. Well, I
guess the questions are
00:09:46.30\00:09:48.43
you might be
asking that is well what
00:09:48.44\00:09:50.43
food is good to eat,
does God actually tell us?
00:09:50.44\00:09:53.93
Well, now there are
also foods that we can't eat,
00:09:54.67\00:09:57.32
now those who
chose to eat flesh foods,
00:09:57.33\00:09:59.87
okay there is also
listed in the Bible a force
00:10:00.25\00:10:05.30
that is concern let's
go to our first graphic
00:10:05.31\00:10:07.24
and let see what the
Bible have to say about this.
00:10:07.25\00:10:09.88
God's Perfect Will:
"For it is sanctified by the
00:10:10.29\00:10:15.67
word of God and
prayer." Now the word sanctified
00:10:15.68\00:10:19.16
means to set
apart, okay, we know that
00:10:19.17\00:10:22.74
there are certain foods
there has been set apart
00:10:23.21\00:10:25.81
to be eaten those food
chose to eat flesh foods,
00:10:26.55\00:10:30.01
those foods are clean
foods that were listed
00:10:30.55\00:10:33.47
in Leviticus chapter
11 and also Deuteronomy
00:10:33.48\00:10:36.83
chapter 14.
There are certain foods
00:10:37.19\00:10:39.32
they have been
sanctify or set apart for those
00:10:39.33\00:10:42.09
who chose to eat flesh foods,
00:10:42.10\00:10:44.33
by most mind you
now. They are three types
00:10:44.76\00:10:47.73
of diet in the Bible,
three, the first diet is
00:10:47.74\00:10:51.40
Genesis 1:29 which
you have already read that
00:10:51.41\00:10:54.80
we called the best diet,
the best diet for mankind.
00:10:54.81\00:10:57.83
Then there is the
second diet the diet that's
00:10:58.27\00:11:00.68
allowed or permitted
it's not the best but is allow
00:11:00.69\00:11:05.16
and that diet is to
clean foods listed in
00:11:05.89\00:11:08.14
Leviticus chapter 11.
Then there is the third
00:11:08.15\00:11:10.81
diet that is forbidden
we shall not eat that's
00:11:11.04\00:11:15.01
unclean foods. So, diet number 2
00:11:15.02\00:11:17.60
the clean foods is
not best, is permitted but
00:11:17.61\00:11:21.54
is not the best, so we
shall also keep our mind
00:11:21.55\00:11:25.02
to keep our bodies
healthy we sure success
00:11:25.31\00:11:28.19
on one diet number 1
the best diet Genesis 1:29
00:11:28.20\00:11:33.69
and Genesis 3:18
that's the diet after seeing
00:11:33.70\00:11:37.19
but before the flood.
Well, I think once again
00:11:37.20\00:11:39.34
I like the way the Lord writes,
00:11:39.35\00:11:42.03
because or he's encourage
through the Holy Spirit
00:11:42.69\00:11:45.67
to write man have
written the word of God,
00:11:45.68\00:11:48.36
but I think about the
fact that if this diet issue
00:11:48.75\00:11:53.03
was not important
God would not have put
00:11:53.37\00:11:55.63
it in the very
first book of Bible.
00:11:55.64\00:11:56.90
God in the very first
book of the Bible after
00:11:56.91\00:11:59.11
he's creates
everything god everything ready
00:11:59.12\00:12:00.87
then He creates man
and He has the diet already
00:12:01.26\00:12:04.46
set in place.
That's true, that's grains,
00:12:04.47\00:12:06.63
seeds shall be your meat.
00:12:06.64\00:12:07.92
The first chapter
of the Bible okay,
00:12:07.93\00:12:10.06
now if it was
the not a big deal,
00:12:10.07\00:12:11.25
He might have
moved it into Psalms,
00:12:11.26\00:12:12.54
Revelation or Psalm
or in Revelation led on
00:12:12.55\00:12:14.11
down the line. But
that's why how many peoples
00:12:14.12\00:12:15.69
uneven see this one
why in Genesis I mean
00:12:15.70\00:12:17.46
not even the very
first book, they kind of skip
00:12:17.47\00:12:18.70
that first chapter,
okay. But now let's go
00:12:18.71\00:12:22.40
back to our text
now, we're not finish
00:12:22.41\00:12:23.92
with this text
still, we still need verse 4
00:12:23.93\00:12:26.45
the Bible says: For
every creature of God is good,
00:12:27.05\00:12:29.50
now again sometimes
we assumed that two words
00:12:30.32\00:12:33.71
are missing we say
good for food, okay,
00:12:33.72\00:12:35.77
or good to eat.
That's not the case here,
00:12:35.78\00:12:38.99
every creature of God is good,
00:12:39.71\00:12:41.93
not necessarily to
eat, for instance the hog,
00:12:42.72\00:12:47.82
the swine it is good
folks believe me the hog
00:12:48.31\00:12:52.20
is good not to eat, but
it's good for his intended
00:12:52.21\00:12:55.68
purposes which is
the cleanup the filth
00:12:55.69\00:12:57.96
of the earth. So,
it's good for his intended
00:12:58.30\00:13:01.08
purpose the way God
designed it by his will,
00:13:01.09\00:13:03.92
the buzzard, it is good,
it's excellent to cleanup
00:13:04.48\00:13:08.61
the filth of the
earth. The catfish it is good,
00:13:08.62\00:13:11.77
it's excellent to
cleanup the filth of the sea.
00:13:12.28\00:13:15.28
So, every
creature of God is good,
00:13:15.82\00:13:17.78
not necessarily for
food but it's good for God's
00:13:18.37\00:13:21.45
intended
purposes and that we have
00:13:21.46\00:13:24.09
to keep in mind. Now,
that make sense, okay,
00:13:24.10\00:13:26.07
you kind of left out
the, the shrimp and also the,
00:13:26.90\00:13:29.48
okay shrimp, crab,
lobster, lobster yeah
00:13:29.49\00:13:31.75
I think we got the idea so.
00:13:31.76\00:13:32.87
And by the way
those who are listening
00:13:33.23\00:13:35.36
to the program and said you hit,
00:13:35.37\00:13:38.50
heart so bad, you heard so good.
00:13:38.51\00:13:39.99
Well, you know
you've been very well,
00:13:40.00\00:13:41.28
you know certainly
welcome write to us
00:13:41.75\00:13:44.20
and we will glad
to give you additional
00:13:44.21\00:13:45.90
information that will
actually help to verify
00:13:45.91\00:13:47.85
the fact that God
has created foods that,
00:13:47.86\00:13:50.16
things that are
good but not for food,
00:13:50.64\00:13:53.00
that's right. So,
remember folks there are
00:13:53.01\00:13:55.47
certain foods if you
chose to eat flesh foods
00:13:55.48\00:13:57.91
there are sanctified
by God's word which is
00:13:57.92\00:14:01.66
recorded in
Leviticus chapter 11 and
00:14:01.67\00:14:04.20
Deuteronomy chapter
14. Now, let's go to our
00:14:04.21\00:14:06.73
last graphic and this
is what other people will
00:14:06.74\00:14:08.89
do as well. This is
not God's will let's look
00:14:08.90\00:14:11.99
we see what the
Bible have to say:
00:14:12.00\00:14:13.19
"They that
sanctify themselves eating
00:14:13.73\00:14:17.19
swine's flesh, and the
mouse, shall be consumed
00:14:17.61\00:14:21.68
together, saith the
Lord. Now we're trying to
00:14:21.69\00:14:24.97
sanctify
ourselves, when we do that in
00:14:24.98\00:14:28.69
swine's flesh and a
mouse, you know there is now,
00:14:28.70\00:14:31.61
he put, pork in the
same categories eating rats,
00:14:31.62\00:14:35.05
I mean it kind of
gives you an idea of how God
00:14:35.81\00:14:38.31
views our diet and
what should go into
00:14:38.32\00:14:40.75
our stomach, swine flesh or pork
00:14:40.76\00:14:43.24
and rat and rat. Okay,
so I'll think we wanna eat
00:14:43.60\00:14:47.33
any pork or rats or
anything of that nature
00:14:47.34\00:14:50.01
because those are
scavengers and God says
00:14:50.02\00:14:52.76
when we sanctify
ourselves than that
00:14:53.15\00:14:55.53
is not God's will.
The Bible has outline what
00:14:55.54\00:14:58.95
we shall eat and
what we shall drink,
00:14:58.96\00:15:01.42
so the lesson's clear,
the lesson here is that
00:15:01.79\00:15:04.81
we should guard ourselves
against false doctrines
00:15:04.82\00:15:07.30
and also rightly
divide into word of truth,
00:15:07.92\00:15:10.48
here a little and there
a little therefore we have
00:15:11.00\00:15:13.60
a safe understanding
of God's will for mankind.
00:15:13.61\00:15:17.90
Now, here we go
again this is so important
00:15:18.62\00:15:20.10
then when we study
God's word we need to take
00:15:20.11\00:15:22.55
first of all a time
out, yeah, to connect with
00:15:22.56\00:15:24.78
the Lord first
and ask Him to lead
00:15:24.79\00:15:26.73
and to guide us into
the truth and let the
00:15:26.74\00:15:29.29
Holy Spirit give
us the information
00:15:29.30\00:15:31.37
we need to have.
And when we do that not
00:15:31.38\00:15:34.17
just running into the scripture,
00:15:34.18\00:15:35.33
but actually
taking that time out,
00:15:35.34\00:15:36.74
this is when God
will actually teach us
00:15:37.12\00:15:38.51
and not only will
He teach us through
00:15:38.86\00:15:40.06
the word, we can also
get further information
00:15:40.07\00:15:42.34
by going out and
doing additional research.
00:15:42.71\00:15:44.82
We're talking to other
people who might be able
00:15:45.29\00:15:47.06
to better understand
these particular scriptures,
00:15:47.07\00:15:49.03
okay, but God is
the one, yes, He is,
00:15:49.04\00:15:51.73
He is the one He's
key. You know and there are
00:15:51.74\00:15:52.97
other study materials
as my wife has mention
00:15:52.98\00:15:55.03
you have several commentaries,
00:15:55.52\00:15:57.70
Bible dictionaries
you have other translation
00:15:58.47\00:16:01.14
now you need to be
careful about those
00:16:01.15\00:16:02.31
translations. There
are some translations
00:16:02.32\00:16:04.11
there are not good for
studying the word of God
00:16:04.12\00:16:06.85
but there is others as
well, there are excellent
00:16:06.86\00:16:09.93
the New Kings James Version,
00:16:09.94\00:16:11.47
Revised Standard
Version, the New International
00:16:11.97\00:16:14.95
Version, these versions
are good amplified Bible,
00:16:14.96\00:16:17.69
but there some other
versions that we need
00:16:18.02\00:16:20.11
to be cautious of.
And does not have a good
00:16:20.12\00:16:23.06
correct translation
of God's word in a Hebrew
00:16:23.07\00:16:27.15
and in the Greek, so we
ask that God will help us
00:16:27.16\00:16:30.02
and let the Holy
Spirit guide us into all truth
00:16:30.35\00:16:32.48
than God's word will
be portrait to our minds
00:16:32.85\00:16:35.43
and we can do what he
says. So, it's time to go
00:16:35.44\00:16:38.77
into the kitchen
and do some cooking.
00:16:38.78\00:16:40.14
Good looking, well I
guess I was just thinking
00:16:40.49\00:16:42.53
it people probably
saying you know this is
00:16:42.54\00:16:44.93
a little bit
different you know try to get
00:16:44.94\00:16:47.16
a little more into the
meet of the word of God,
00:16:47.17\00:16:48.99
okay, believer or
not every time we travel
00:16:49.00\00:16:51.06
we meet people who
will bring these scriptures
00:16:51.07\00:16:52.84
to us. So, we've
thought this will be a good
00:16:52.85\00:16:54.56
time to kind of
open this doors up,
00:16:54.57\00:16:56.74
alright looking at
the word of God and trying
00:16:56.75\00:16:58.97
to unscramble some of
the things there actually
00:16:58.98\00:17:01.25
being taught or
believed to be true.
00:17:01.26\00:17:03.32
God's word will
always stand, that's true
00:17:03.88\00:17:05.85
God's interest and saving us.
00:17:05.86\00:17:07.29
And it's not as
difficult as we try to make
00:17:07.92\00:17:10.52
it seem, yes we are
going into the kitchen,
00:17:10.53\00:17:12.68
alright, okay my
favorite part here okay.
00:17:12.69\00:17:14.96
And now we're gonna do
a new dish it's called,
00:17:15.30\00:17:17.15
wait, wait
what's the name of it?
00:17:19.94\00:17:21.17
Plant, no, no, no, no,
it's gonna be a good dish
00:17:21.68\00:17:25.41
and you'll find out when
we're go into the kitchen
00:17:25.75\00:17:27.79

and you can do that.
00:19:29.08\00:19:30.23
I was just talking to,
I'm gave you some credit,
00:19:30.70\00:19:32.99
one of current
people Miss Gloria,
00:19:33.00\00:19:34.67
she was telling
me back in the day,
00:19:34.68\00:19:36.44
back in the day we
just put that corn milk
00:19:36.97\00:19:39.24
together and some
water and make it hard
00:19:39.25\00:19:41.82
and fried or you
know boil it in the oven.
00:19:41.83\00:19:45.13
Now, it's become
very sophisticated
00:19:45.45\00:19:47.49
and now it's
called Polenta Primavera,
00:19:47.85\00:19:49.74

to see this, this
Polenta and you can actually
00:19:52.95\00:19:55.42
buy this at the
regular grocery store.
00:19:55.43\00:19:57.98
And they have all
flavors; this one is a sunny
00:19:58.45\00:20:02.20
dried tomato, okay,
so different flavors
00:20:02.50\00:20:05.87
from dry tomatoes.
And I put this one on the
00:20:05.88\00:20:07.85
show before no
fat, no cholesterol,
00:20:07.86\00:20:10.49
okay sound good
and it comes in a tube
00:20:10.50\00:20:12.94
believe it or not,
it's actually wrapped
00:20:12.95\00:20:14.71
in a tube and it
has little corners on it
00:20:14.72\00:20:17.89
and you just take
and lose and you will see
00:20:18.17\00:20:20.55
at that point you
will then see how it looks
00:20:21.03\00:20:24.01
this is a sun dried.
It has around circles,
00:20:24.02\00:20:26.91
okay, nothing more
than just corn milk water
00:20:26.92\00:20:30.15
and of course in this
case sun dried tomatoes
00:20:30.16\00:20:32.26
as well. Now, some
might gave another name
00:20:32.27\00:20:33.77
for corn milk and
water, and we used to call
00:20:33.78\00:20:35.73
it corn milk
mush, mush, just mush.
00:20:35.74\00:20:37.89
Okay, but let just
ask little bit better,
00:20:37.90\00:20:39.71
we're gonna make
it, we're gonna make it
00:20:39.72\00:20:40.95
into something
very, very pretty.
00:20:40.96\00:20:42.77
I know where you're going,
00:20:44.93\00:20:45.90
okay I'm not even
gonna, I'm not even gonna
00:20:45.91\00:20:47.35
there with you today Curtis.
00:20:47.36\00:20:48.34
I'm gonna just cook it
on and take the Polenta
00:20:48.35\00:20:51.71
we're gonna put it
inside the skillet and the name
00:20:51.72\00:20:55.10
again we just going to
brown it on both sides.
00:20:55.11\00:20:57.39
A little bit oil in
there and browning it for
00:20:57.40\00:21:02.56
a few minutes just
to get a nice little
00:21:02.57\00:21:04.58
coding on it, it
doesn't get do done we don't
00:21:04.59\00:21:06.75
want to burn or
anything like that just to kind
00:21:06.76\00:21:09.37
of brown it or I
say a warm it up.
00:21:09.38\00:21:11.16
Okay, now you have
something else also
00:21:11.52\00:21:14.17
we're gonna be
using on the show today,
00:21:14.18\00:21:15.55
yeah we sure do and
while let's doing out once
00:21:15.56\00:21:17.63
you show that. This
is a Mozzarella Cheese,
00:21:17.64\00:21:21.42
Soy Mozzarella Cheese,
Melissa, Melissa is a major
00:21:21.43\00:21:25.97
manufacture of Soy
Cheeses zero cholesterol,
00:21:25.98\00:21:29.10
zero saturated fat,
zero dairy products,
00:21:29.11\00:21:33.28
zero all of those
kind of good things.
00:21:33.79\00:21:35.54
And but the
Mozzarella Cheese is excellent,
00:21:35.55\00:21:38.59
Melissa has a lot
of other good products
00:21:38.60\00:21:41.00
as well for sure
slices of cheese as well
00:21:41.01\00:21:44.52
and excellent for
those who want to go another,
00:21:45.02\00:21:48.76
dangerous saturated
fat type cheese which will
00:21:49.09\00:21:51.58
clog up those
coronary arteries folks.
00:21:51.59\00:21:53.88
And we talk about
that, they don't wanna
00:21:53.89\00:21:55.14
to program before, we sure,
00:21:55.15\00:21:56.12
well you don't think
once again here we go
00:21:56.28\00:21:58.11
people always asking
us ways that make that
00:21:58.12\00:21:59.88
switch over to vegetarian diet
00:21:59.89\00:22:01.35
and this is one ways
to do it that is to use
00:22:01.67\00:22:04.31
something like
the different items
00:22:04.32\00:22:05.34
we're actually using.
Polenta kind of serves
00:22:05.35\00:22:07.49
as the place of
actually a protein base
00:22:07.50\00:22:09.29
believes or not,
yeah, we're gonna be saltine
00:22:09.30\00:22:10.87
that with the
bunch of bell peppers
00:22:10.88\00:22:12.25
and also the green
beans and the mushrooms
00:22:12.71\00:22:16.05
and the squash
okay. So, we're gonna just
00:22:16.06\00:22:18.06
take this now
and just turn it over
00:22:18.07\00:22:20.51
and you'll see it
does not change color maybe
00:22:21.02\00:22:22.97
a little bit more a
yellow in the color but
00:22:22.98\00:22:25.21
we don't want to
actually cook it for say.
00:22:25.22\00:22:27.96
We just wanna put like
a coating on top of it,
00:22:27.97\00:22:30.34
little brown, we
have a nice presentation
00:22:30.35\00:22:31.97
when we get done
with the whole thing now.
00:22:32.30\00:22:34.71
Now, can these be
used like a patty or beef
00:22:35.04\00:22:38.14
patty type or.
No, because it texture
00:22:38.15\00:22:41.44
or different or
yeah it's gritty and
00:22:41.45\00:22:42.62
you're did not
can be happy okay,
00:22:42.63\00:22:44.10
they won't be happy.
No, they won't be happy
00:22:44.44\00:22:47.04
because I'm not gonna go there,
00:22:47.05\00:22:48.72
you're not gonna do
and now we won't be happy
00:22:48.73\00:22:50.47
but okay they won't
be. Now, at this point
00:22:50.48\00:22:52.84
usually you know
you brown it once again
00:22:53.23\00:22:54.80
just kind of
brown lightly brown it
00:22:54.81\00:22:56.22
and I'm just gonna
take it off because
00:22:56.23\00:22:57.55
we've got lot more
things we gonna do with
00:22:57.56\00:22:58.90
this before the show was over.
00:22:58.91\00:22:59.96
Okay, so just from
television know that
00:22:59.97\00:23:03.83
it is ready, it is
ready, okay television,
00:23:03.84\00:23:06.46
alright, alright, okay,
okay. I put this over here
00:23:06.47\00:23:10.43
we're gonna get on to
it, so normally you would
00:23:10.44\00:23:11.80
have that brownie for
maybe another two minutes
00:23:11.81\00:23:14.75
what you say, just
another two minutes,
00:23:14.76\00:23:16.48
just you know remember
now it's already cooked
00:23:16.49\00:23:18.60
once again, okay.
And you can see that,
00:23:18.61\00:23:20.69
it just gets a little
bit more yellow in color,
00:23:20.70\00:23:22.90
okay, kind of coats it
a little bit, okay smells,
00:23:22.91\00:23:26.77
this is a tomato one this
is actually it has a nice,
00:23:26.78\00:23:29.37
nice smell to it.
Now, what other flavors
00:23:29.38\00:23:31.91
you say you have,
this is a tomato now
00:23:31.92\00:23:34.32
you have other, I
had Garlic one time,
00:23:34.33\00:23:36.46
yeah we had a
Garlic combination.
00:23:36.82\00:23:38.11
I want you put
that over there for me,
00:23:38.12\00:23:39.43
okay and what we're gonna do now
00:23:39.44\00:23:40.83
there is a lot
different ones out
00:23:41.63\00:23:43.05
and my suggestion
would be that they would
00:23:43.06\00:23:45.08
try the different combinations.
00:23:45.09\00:23:46.47
Okay, let me go ahead
put little bit more oil
00:23:46.48\00:23:48.28
in here and let's
start getting these other
00:23:48.29\00:23:49.31
things sauteed, it call
for 2 tablespoons of oil,
00:23:49.32\00:23:54.58
so therefore I use
one for the Polenta
00:23:54.59\00:23:56.57
and now what I'm gonna
do is start up the other
00:23:56.94\00:24:00.02
part of this dish.
Let's get those onions going,
00:24:00.03\00:24:03.78
now we're kind of
persons find this Polenta
00:24:03.79\00:24:05.72
in the grocery
store what section,
00:24:05.73\00:24:07.32
in the grocery store
you will find it over
00:24:07.33\00:24:09.30
there where you
have the oriental,
00:24:09.31\00:24:10.53
where you have your
vegetables and oriental
00:24:11.15\00:24:12.92
type foods your
cabbages, your greens,
00:24:12.93\00:24:16.95
your squash all of those
it's over in that section.
00:24:17.31\00:24:19.59
So, do some more oven,
in the protein section,
00:24:19.60\00:24:21.54
protein section, Italian
cuisine, Italy, more that
00:24:21.55\00:24:26.69

I said before you know
00:24:26.70\00:24:28.70
and the South they use
it, it's called corn milk
00:24:28.71\00:24:30.89
mush but yes it's
more of the Italian,
00:24:30.90\00:24:33.34
like you say
talking about like Primavera
00:24:33.35\00:24:34.97
or talking about
the Polenta it's a,
00:24:34.98\00:24:36.23
we're not saying,
we're saying Polenta,
00:24:36.61\00:24:38.78
Polenta it's
sounds little bit better,
00:24:38.79\00:24:40.49
yes it does, yes,
okay. Oh! This smell is
00:24:40.50\00:24:42.73
