Hello, friends, and
welcome to 3ABN Today.
00:01:14.64\00:01:17.94
This is our Today program
in which we do, you know,
00:01:17.97\00:01:20.28
we kinda do different
programs on this Today segment.
00:01:20.34\00:01:22.94
Sometimes we do a Bible topic
00:01:22.98\00:01:24.65
where we just take
on one particular topic
00:01:24.68\00:01:27.08
and get deep
into it theologically.
00:01:27.12\00:01:29.32
And sometimes we do
interviews and testimonies
00:01:29.35\00:01:31.62
and it might be a
3ABN Today music special,
00:01:31.65\00:01:34.82
all different types of programs.
00:01:34.86\00:01:36.19
But this is our
newest Today program,
00:01:36.22\00:01:39.13
Bible Q and A.
00:01:39.16\00:01:40.50
This is a program
00:01:40.56\00:01:41.86
in which you can
ask your Bible questions
00:01:41.90\00:01:43.30
and we answer
the Bible questions
00:01:43.33\00:01:45.53
from the Bible.
00:01:45.57\00:01:46.90
So this is 3ABN
Today, Bible Q and A.
00:01:46.97\00:01:49.74
And we're excited
that you're joining us.
00:01:49.77\00:01:51.27
We're excited about this
00:01:51.31\00:01:52.64
because this is our second week.
00:01:52.67\00:01:54.44
We had our
first week, last week,
00:01:54.48\00:01:55.81
and we're gonna continue
00:01:55.84\00:01:57.18
to do this program every Monday.
00:01:57.21\00:01:59.01
So during our Today time slot,
00:01:59.05\00:02:01.02
every Monday from here on now,
00:02:01.05\00:02:03.39
we're going to be
taking your Bible questions.
00:02:03.42\00:02:05.62
And we wanna tell you
00:02:05.65\00:02:06.99
how you can send in
your Bible questions,
00:02:07.06\00:02:09.09
how you can get those to us,
00:02:09.12\00:02:10.46
because we do
receive them and we read them
00:02:10.53\00:02:12.89
and we dive deep into the Bible
00:02:12.93\00:02:14.40
to answer those Bible questions.
00:02:14.46\00:02:15.76
So there's a couple
of ways you can do that.
00:02:15.80\00:02:17.80
First way is by email.
00:02:17.83\00:02:19.53
So you can
simply send us an email,
00:02:19.57\00:02:22.07
email, your Bible questions
in at bibleqa@3abn.org.
00:02:22.10\00:02:27.91
Again, that's bibleqa@3abn.org.
00:02:27.94\00:02:32.31
Send us an email.
Ask that Bible question.
00:02:32.35\00:02:34.65
Or if you like to text,
00:02:34.68\00:02:36.18
you can also text
in your Bible question
00:02:36.22\00:02:39.09
at (618) 228-3975.
00:02:39.12\00:02:44.09
Again, (618) 228-3975.
00:02:44.13\00:02:48.03
Text them, send
them in by email.
00:02:48.06\00:02:50.30
Send us your Bible questions.
00:02:50.33\00:02:51.67
That's the whole
point of this purpose
00:02:51.70\00:02:53.37
is we can sit down
00:02:53.40\00:02:54.74
and we can take time
00:02:54.77\00:02:56.10
to dive deep
into the Word of God
00:02:56.14\00:02:57.67
and answer your Bible questions.
00:02:57.71\00:02:59.44
And we have some
specialists here today
00:02:59.47\00:03:02.34
on this particular panel here
00:03:02.38\00:03:03.75
in which we're going to
be diving deep into the Word.
00:03:03.78\00:03:06.48
Pastor Lomacang,
00:03:06.51\00:03:07.85
it's always a
blessing to have you.
00:03:07.88\00:03:09.22
And I know
you're locked and loaded
00:03:09.25\00:03:10.59
and ready to go, Brother.
00:03:10.62\00:03:11.95
Praise the Lord.
00:03:11.99\00:03:13.36
He is the one who
gives us the understanding
00:03:13.39\00:03:15.39
and all the glory goes to Him.
00:03:15.42\00:03:16.76
Praise God for that.
Amen. Praise the Lord.
00:03:16.83\00:03:18.16
And, of course, to your
left is Pastor John Dinzey.
00:03:18.19\00:03:22.00
This is, you
weren't with us last week,
00:03:22.03\00:03:23.67
but you're here
with us this week.
00:03:23.73\00:03:25.10
And that kinda
gives me an opportunity.
00:03:25.13\00:03:27.10
We're gonna have different
rotating guests on here
00:03:27.14\00:03:29.14
from week to week.
00:03:29.17\00:03:30.51
And this week,
00:03:30.57\00:03:31.91
Pastor John
Dinzey is joining us.
00:03:31.94\00:03:33.27
And it's always a
blessing to have you, Brother.
00:03:33.31\00:03:34.64
It's a blessing
and a joy to be here.
00:03:34.68\00:03:36.01
I'm looking forward
to hearing God's answers
00:03:36.04\00:03:38.08
through God's instruments.
00:03:38.11\00:03:40.08
Amen. Praise the Lord.
00:03:40.12\00:03:41.45
And back with us again
is Sister Jill Morikone
00:03:41.48\00:03:44.05
and I know
you're ready to give us
00:03:44.09\00:03:45.42
some answers from the Bible.
00:03:45.45\00:03:46.79
Amen.
00:03:46.82\00:03:48.16
I love studying the Word of
God and love sharing together.
00:03:48.19\00:03:49.92
Amen. Praise the Lord.
00:03:49.99\00:03:51.93
And basically how this works.
00:03:51.96\00:03:53.36
We're just simply gonna
go through one question.
00:03:53.40\00:03:55.30
It's gonna kind of
be like rapid fire.
00:03:55.33\00:03:57.20
And each guest has
a couple of minutes
00:03:57.23\00:03:58.80
to give a solid biblical answer.
00:03:58.83\00:04:01.34
And before we
get into this though,
00:04:01.37\00:04:02.94
'cause I have a
lot of questions here
00:04:02.97\00:04:04.31
that we're gonna get through.
00:04:04.34\00:04:05.67
We're gonna try to get through
as many of them as possible.
00:04:05.71\00:04:07.08
But before we go any
further, let's have a prayer.
00:04:07.11\00:04:11.15
Father in heaven, Lord,
00:04:11.18\00:04:12.51
it's such a
blessing and an honor
00:04:12.55\00:04:14.25
to be here with you, Lord.
00:04:14.32\00:04:15.95
I know that this
is an opportunity
00:04:15.98\00:04:17.39
for You to clarify
00:04:17.42\00:04:19.55
and to show the world
that Your Word is sure,
00:04:19.59\00:04:22.56
Your Word is clear
00:04:22.59\00:04:23.96
and that there is no
mystery under the sun,
00:04:24.03\00:04:25.93
that this is an
opportunity we can peer and peek
00:04:25.96\00:04:29.13
behind the curtain.
00:04:29.16\00:04:30.53
Not that You're
hiding Yourself, Lord,
00:04:30.57\00:04:32.67
but to make all
things open and exposed.
00:04:32.70\00:04:35.70
And at this time we're gonna
dive deep into Your Word, Lord.
00:04:35.74\00:04:38.27
And we're gonna find
those gems that You have for us.
00:04:38.31\00:04:40.58
And we need the
guidance of Your Holy Spirit.
00:04:40.64\00:04:42.88
So give each and every
one of our panel members here,
00:04:42.91\00:04:45.38
our guests,
00:04:45.41\00:04:46.78
the Spirit of the Lord
that they may speak for You,
00:04:46.82\00:04:49.35
rightly dividing
the word of truth.
00:04:49.38\00:04:51.79
May our guests be blessed
00:04:51.82\00:04:53.25
and may they
receive the proper answers
00:04:53.32\00:04:55.16
from the Bible today,
00:04:55.19\00:04:56.52
we ask in Jesus' holy name.
00:04:56.56\00:04:58.19
Amen. Amen.
00:04:58.23\00:05:00.13
Praise the Lord.
00:05:00.16\00:05:01.93
Our first question, drum roll.
00:05:01.96\00:05:05.70
I'm gonna ask
Jill this question.
00:05:05.73\00:05:07.34
Jill, this person is
asking, "How do I forgive?"
00:05:07.37\00:05:12.07
How do I forgive?
That's a great question.
00:05:12.11\00:05:13.88
I love that question.
00:05:13.91\00:05:15.58
Forgiveness. It's a choice.
00:05:15.61\00:05:17.65
The feelings change
00:05:17.68\00:05:19.18
as we practice the
promises of forgiveness
00:05:19.21\00:05:22.92
and, you know, I like lists.
00:05:22.95\00:05:24.29
So I'm going to give
you four steps to forgive.
00:05:24.32\00:05:27.49
Step number one is
ask for His forgiveness.
00:05:27.56\00:05:29.89
We cannot forgive
00:05:29.92\00:05:31.26
until we receive
forgiveness from God.
00:05:31.29\00:05:33.26
So 1 John 1:9,
00:05:33.29\00:05:34.60
"If we confess our sins,
00:05:34.63\00:05:35.96
He's faithful and
just to forgive us our sins
00:05:36.00\00:05:38.03
and to cleanse us
from all unrighteousness."
00:05:38.07\00:05:41.74
We ask for His
forgiveness for us
00:05:41.77\00:05:44.07
and His forgiveness for others.
00:05:44.11\00:05:46.44
I think of Jesus on the
cross, His arms stretched out.
00:05:46.47\00:05:50.11
In Luke 23 He's saying,
00:05:50.15\00:05:51.48
"Father, forgive them,
00:05:51.51\00:05:53.68
for they know not
what they are doing."
00:05:53.72\00:05:56.02
The first step is to
ask for His forgiveness
00:05:56.05\00:05:58.42
because it's a gift from Him.
00:05:58.45\00:06:00.19
The second step is
to pray for that person.
00:06:00.22\00:06:03.79
Pray for the person
you're struggling with.
00:06:03.86\00:06:05.46
Pray for the person
that you hold unforgiveness
00:06:05.49\00:06:08.00
or a grudge against
or bitterness against.
00:06:08.03\00:06:11.07
We can ask for His
forgiveness and I've done that.
00:06:11.10\00:06:14.04
And sometimes I think,
00:06:14.07\00:06:15.47
but I don't feel
forgiving toward this person.
00:06:15.50\00:06:18.64
And I'm still dealing
with something in my heart.
00:06:18.67\00:06:21.64
So pray for that
person, commit with God
00:06:21.68\00:06:24.75
that you're
going to pray every day
00:06:24.78\00:06:26.58
for that person specifically.
00:06:26.61\00:06:28.62
The third step
00:06:28.65\00:06:29.98
is to surrender
the desire for revenge.
00:06:30.02\00:06:32.99
I think of
Joseph and his brothers
00:06:33.02\00:06:34.66
and they wronged him deeply.
00:06:34.69\00:06:36.93
And yet, what did he say?
00:06:36.96\00:06:38.29
Genesis 50:20,
00:06:38.33\00:06:40.23
"What Satan intended for evil,
God turned around for good."
00:06:40.30\00:06:44.53
So trust that God can
bring out good in the end.
00:06:44.57\00:06:47.44
Trust that He can work
all things out for good.
00:06:47.50\00:06:50.57
Trust Him to bring
justice and vengeance.
00:06:50.61\00:06:52.97
He says, "Vengeance
is mine. I will repay."
00:06:53.01\00:06:55.44
We don't have to do that.
We can trust God for that.
00:06:55.48\00:06:58.35
And step number four
00:06:58.38\00:06:59.71
is to allow God to
change your feelings.
00:06:59.75\00:07:03.82
Don't expect that
it happens overnight,
00:07:03.85\00:07:05.69
but as you practice the
promises of forgiveness,
00:07:05.72\00:07:08.42
as you practice those steps,
00:07:08.46\00:07:10.26
God will change
your heart and your mind.
00:07:10.29\00:07:13.16
Amen. Amen.
00:07:13.19\00:07:14.63
Nice, beautiful answer.
00:07:14.66\00:07:16.90
Pastor Lomacang, I'm
gonna come to you for this one.
00:07:16.97\00:07:19.57
This comes from Lynnette,
and Lynnette is asking this.
00:07:19.60\00:07:22.60
She says,
00:07:22.64\00:07:24.01
"How do you work with someone
00:07:24.04\00:07:25.54
who regardless of how
many times you forgive them
00:07:25.57\00:07:28.68
continues to do
00:07:28.71\00:07:30.05
the same
mean-spirited things to you?"
00:07:30.08\00:07:32.51
Okay.
00:07:32.55\00:07:33.92
If it's in a workplace
00:07:33.95\00:07:35.35
that could be
workplace harassment.
00:07:35.38\00:07:38.05
That's one of the
first things you have to do.
00:07:38.09\00:07:39.45
If you try to resolve
issues in your workplace
00:07:39.49\00:07:41.59
with people that are in
an adverse setting with you,
00:07:41.62\00:07:44.13
you need to take
that to your superior,
00:07:44.16\00:07:45.96
either your
manager or your supervisor,
00:07:45.99\00:07:48.13
and try to work
out resolution there.
00:07:48.16\00:07:50.23
You know, the Bible gives
us in Matthew 18 principle
00:07:50.27\00:07:52.83
and that Matthew 18 principle
is first go to that person,
00:07:52.87\00:07:55.54
tell them what the issue is.
00:07:55.57\00:07:57.27
If they receive it,
00:07:57.31\00:07:58.91
then you are in a position
00:07:58.94\00:08:00.51
where you could
reconcile the issue,
00:08:00.54\00:08:02.34
deal with the
issue and lay it aside.
00:08:02.38\00:08:04.18
But according to your question,
00:08:04.21\00:08:05.61
they continue to do things
00:08:05.65\00:08:07.88
and in the
workplace, once again,
00:08:07.92\00:08:09.25
take it to the next level,
00:08:09.28\00:08:10.62
which is also what
Matthew 18 suggests.
00:08:10.65\00:08:12.62
Take another witness.
In this case, you've gone.
00:08:12.65\00:08:15.42
Now you go with your supervisor
or your manager to that person,
00:08:15.46\00:08:19.13
and maybe they could find
what the core of the issue is.
00:08:19.16\00:08:22.00
But according to the scriptures,
00:08:22.03\00:08:23.37
if none of those issues work,
00:08:23.40\00:08:24.73
and it's just a setting where
00:08:24.77\00:08:26.94
you just can't get past
that person's mean spirit.
00:08:26.97\00:08:30.24
I'm gonna use a
passage in Romans 16:17,
00:08:30.31\00:08:33.07
to apply it in your situation.
00:08:33.11\00:08:35.38
Romans 16:17 says,
00:08:35.41\00:08:36.85
"Now I urge you, brethren,
00:08:36.88\00:08:38.61
note those who cause
division and offenses,
00:08:38.65\00:08:42.62
contrary to the
doctrine which you have learned,
00:08:42.65\00:08:44.52
and avoid them."
00:08:44.55\00:08:45.92
Now this is not
a doctrinal issue,
00:08:45.95\00:08:47.76
but if there's a
division and offences
00:08:47.79\00:08:50.43
with you and
another person, avoid them.
00:08:50.46\00:08:52.46
Sometimes you got to
stay out of people's way.
00:08:52.49\00:08:54.66
One of the things I
don't recommend people do is
00:08:54.73\00:08:57.03
continue pursuing a person
00:08:57.07\00:08:58.87
whose only intention is
to hurt you and injure you
00:08:58.90\00:09:01.60
because we live in
a narcissistic society
00:09:01.64\00:09:03.74
where some people find joy,
00:09:03.77\00:09:05.84
just making your life miserable.
00:09:05.87\00:09:07.98
But don't let that
situation change you.
00:09:08.01\00:09:09.91
Romans 12:18,
00:09:09.94\00:09:11.91
"If it is possible, as
much as depends on you,
00:09:11.95\00:09:14.92
live peaceably with all men."
00:09:14.95\00:09:17.55
Don't let adversity
cause you to be an angry
00:09:17.62\00:09:20.29
and a vengeful person.
00:09:20.32\00:09:22.42
"And so do not overcome,
do not be overcome by evil,
00:09:22.46\00:09:26.53
but overcome evil with good."
00:09:26.56\00:09:28.70
Romans 12:21.
00:09:28.73\00:09:30.57
Let it direct your
life to still be the person
00:09:30.60\00:09:32.93
that God wants you to be
00:09:32.97\00:09:34.54
and pray for the
other individual,
00:09:34.57\00:09:36.37
but avoid them.
00:09:36.40\00:09:38.24
Nice, solid answer.
00:09:38.27\00:09:39.61
I like that. Thank you, Pastor.
00:09:39.64\00:09:41.51
Pastor John Dinzey,
00:09:41.54\00:09:42.88
this one's coming to you
and this person is asking,
00:09:42.91\00:09:45.58
"Can you please
explain Colossians 3:5.
00:09:45.61\00:09:50.32
And also I'm guessing
00:09:50.39\00:09:52.45
this may be 1
Thessalonians 5:5-8.
00:09:52.49\00:09:56.86
And this is coming
from an inmate in prison.
00:09:56.93\00:09:59.13
Wow.
00:09:59.16\00:10:00.50
I want to first
commend this inmate in prison
00:10:00.53\00:10:03.53
because he is
studying God's Word,
00:10:03.57\00:10:05.17
making good use of time.
00:10:05.20\00:10:06.53
Amen.
00:10:06.57\00:10:07.90
So we that are,
00:10:07.94\00:10:09.27
we should make good use of time.
00:10:09.30\00:10:10.67
Colossians Chapter
3 you said verse 5.
00:10:10.71\00:10:14.84
Okay, let's go there.
00:10:14.88\00:10:16.21
It says,
00:10:16.24\00:10:17.61
"Therefore put to
death, your members,
00:10:17.65\00:10:20.08
which are on the earth,
fornication, uncleanness,
00:10:20.12\00:10:23.69
passion, evil
desire, and covetousness,
00:10:23.75\00:10:27.32
which is idolatry."
00:10:27.36\00:10:28.99
Okay.
00:10:29.02\00:10:30.39
Well, here in this scripture,
00:10:30.43\00:10:31.76
we see here that
00:10:31.79\00:10:34.23
he mentioned things
done by individuals,
00:10:34.30\00:10:37.13
what people do.
00:10:37.20\00:10:38.53
So you see here,
it says fornication,
00:10:38.57\00:10:41.24
that's what people do.
00:10:41.27\00:10:42.60
Uncleanness passion,
evil desires, and coveting.
00:10:42.64\00:10:45.24
These are all
works of the flesh.
00:10:45.27\00:10:47.61
So it's not that
you're putting to death
00:10:47.64\00:10:49.54
people that do these things
00:10:49.58\00:10:51.01
or killing people
that do these things.
00:10:51.05\00:10:52.38
But you are
putting to those things,
00:10:52.41\00:10:54.28
those desires,
those evil things in you,
00:10:54.32\00:10:57.02
you put them to death.
00:10:57.05\00:10:58.39
Now this is really
language of baptism.
00:10:58.42\00:11:02.62
So I'm going to go
to the previous chapter
00:11:02.66\00:11:05.63
in Colossians Chapter 2.
00:11:05.66\00:11:07.73
And there we see in verse 11.
00:11:07.76\00:11:12.77
Let's start with verse 12.
00:11:12.80\00:11:14.14
Notice,
00:11:14.20\00:11:15.54
"Buried with Him in baptism,
00:11:15.57\00:11:17.27
in which you also
were raised with Him
00:11:17.31\00:11:19.51
through faith in
the working of God,
00:11:19.54\00:11:21.31
who raised Him from the dead.
00:11:21.34\00:11:24.05
And you, being
dead in your trespasses
00:11:24.11\00:11:26.15
and the
uncircumcision of your flesh,
00:11:26.18\00:11:28.25
He has made alive
together with Him,
00:11:28.28\00:11:30.65
having forgiven
you all trespasses."
00:11:30.69\00:11:33.92
When you are baptized
according to the biblical way
00:11:33.96\00:11:37.13
in which you are
put under the water,
00:11:37.19\00:11:39.03
it's like you're
dying to those evil things
00:11:39.06\00:11:41.46
that your flesh,
00:11:41.50\00:11:42.83
your carnal things
that are still prompting,
00:11:42.86\00:11:46.00
the devil works
through the carnal part of you
00:11:46.03\00:11:48.77
to try to prompt
you to do fornication,
00:11:48.80\00:11:51.17
having evil passions
and all these things.
00:11:51.21\00:11:54.34
But through the grace of Christ,
00:11:54.38\00:11:56.01
we are to put to
death those things,
00:11:56.04\00:11:57.85
because that's when
you come out of baptism,
00:11:57.88\00:12:00.12
you are put, you are, it's
like you're coming back to life.
00:12:00.15\00:12:03.12
You brought back to
life. And I see my time is up.
00:12:03.15\00:12:05.32
I didn't get to the second verse
00:12:05.35\00:12:06.69
perhaps at another time.
00:12:06.76\00:12:08.09
Okay.
00:12:08.12\00:12:09.46
Maybe we'll have
some time at the end.
00:12:09.49\00:12:10.83
You can come back to that.
00:12:10.86\00:12:12.19
And if you're
just now joining us
00:12:12.23\00:12:13.56
here on this new program,
00:12:13.60\00:12:14.93
you're watching
3ABN Bible Q and A.
00:12:14.93\00:12:16.77
This is a new Today program.
00:12:16.83\00:12:18.40
It airs every Monday.
00:12:18.43\00:12:20.20
And we wanna tell you
00:12:20.24\00:12:21.57
how you can send
in your questions
00:12:21.60\00:12:22.94
because we have,
00:12:22.97\00:12:24.31
obviously our
guests will be answering
00:12:24.34\00:12:25.67
these questions every week.
00:12:25.71\00:12:27.04
And so here's a couple of
ways you can do that by email.
00:12:27.08\00:12:29.78
And that email
address is bibleqa@3abn.org.
00:12:29.81\00:12:35.42
Or you can text in your question
00:12:35.45\00:12:37.62
at (618) 228-3975.
00:12:37.65\00:12:42.09
So send us those
questions. All right.
00:12:42.12\00:12:44.46
So, Pastor, I'm gonna come
back to you for this next one.
00:12:44.49\00:12:47.46
This is a locked and loaded one.
00:12:47.50\00:12:50.20
Simple question, but
we're gonna let you answer it
00:12:50.23\00:12:53.27
because this person's asking,
00:12:53.30\00:12:55.20
"Who is the Antichrist?"
00:12:55.24\00:12:57.34
Okay, I have 12
minutes for this one?
00:12:57.37\00:12:58.97
Yeah.
00:12:59.01\00:13:00.41
Very quickly, this
is a three-part answer.
00:13:00.48\00:13:02.58
First of all, 1 John 4:3.
00:13:02.61\00:13:04.78
This is the broad sense.
00:13:04.81\00:13:06.15
The Bible says in every
spirit that does not confess
00:13:06.18\00:13:08.48
that Jesus Christ has come
in the flesh is not of God.
00:13:08.52\00:13:12.22
And this is the
spirit of the Antichrist.
00:13:12.25\00:13:15.06
So if a person denies
00:13:15.09\00:13:16.42
that Jesus Christ
ever came in the flesh,
00:13:16.46\00:13:17.79
that's the spirit
of the Antichrist.
00:13:17.83\00:13:19.53
That's the broad application.
00:13:19.56\00:13:21.03
Secondly, the Bible
talks about Daniel 7:23-25,
00:13:21.06\00:13:26.53
which is identifying
the fourth beast of Daniel,
00:13:26.57\00:13:29.07
which is the power of Rome.
00:13:29.10\00:13:30.77
And the Bible says there
that he shall speak great words
00:13:30.81\00:13:34.68
against the Most High.
00:13:34.71\00:13:36.04
And when you apply the
seven identifying marks
00:13:36.08\00:13:38.85
to the power of Rome,
00:13:38.88\00:13:40.22
which was papal Rome,
00:13:40.28\00:13:41.68
you find that he
is in the position
00:13:41.72\00:13:43.95
of God on earth.
00:13:43.99\00:13:45.32
That's his own admission.
00:13:45.35\00:13:46.69
So that is the
Antichrist system,
00:13:46.72\00:13:49.16
but the ultimate
Antichrist is Satan himself.
00:13:49.19\00:13:52.19
Isaiah 14:14, Satan said,
00:13:52.23\00:13:56.20
"I will ascend above
the heights of the clouds.
00:13:56.23\00:13:58.47
I will be like the Most High.
00:13:58.50\00:14:01.40
"Antichrist means
00:14:01.44\00:14:02.77
simply the one who
seeks to put himself
00:14:02.80\00:14:05.71
in place of Christ
00:14:05.74\00:14:07.21
to remove himself from Christ.
00:14:07.28\00:14:09.08
That's why Jesus
warned us in Daniel 24,
00:14:09.11\00:14:12.35
that if they say
here's the Christ or there,
00:14:12.38\00:14:14.72
do not believe it,
00:14:14.75\00:14:16.22
for false Christs and
false prophets will arise.
00:14:16.25\00:14:18.75
In a nutshell, you
may deny him in the flesh.
00:14:18.79\00:14:21.59
You may look at Daniel 7
as the system of Antichrist
00:14:21.62\00:14:25.19
or Satan himself as
the ultimate Antichrist,
00:14:25.23\00:14:27.60
'cause he alone wants to
take the place of Christ.
00:14:27.60\00:14:31.90
Amen. My goodness!
00:14:31.93\00:14:33.30
Praise God. That was nice.
00:14:33.34\00:14:34.67
Praise the Lord
for that. All right.
00:14:34.70\00:14:36.04
Jill, we're coming back to
you for this next question.
00:14:36.07\00:14:38.04
This comes from
Julie in South Dakota,
00:14:38.07\00:14:41.18
and she's asking,
00:14:41.21\00:14:42.78
"Did people in the Old Testament
00:14:42.81\00:14:44.81
have to be born
again to be saved"?
00:14:44.85\00:14:47.52
That's a great question.
00:14:47.58\00:14:48.92
And the short answer is yes.
00:14:48.95\00:14:50.55
Well, you, when you
look at the Old Testament
00:14:50.59\00:14:52.09
and the New Testament,
00:14:52.12\00:14:53.46
we think the Old
Testament is works
00:14:53.52\00:14:55.29
and the New Testament is grace.
00:14:55.32\00:14:56.89
But the truth is faith
is in the Old Testament
00:14:56.93\00:14:59.19
and in the New Testament.
00:14:59.23\00:15:00.63
Grace is in the Old Testament
and in the New Testament.
00:15:00.66\00:15:03.87
Jesus is in the Old
Testament and the New Testament,
00:15:03.90\00:15:06.84
and obedience is
in the Old Testament
00:15:06.87\00:15:10.44
and the New Testament.
00:15:10.51\00:15:12.17
Let's look at a couple
of comparisons scriptures
00:15:12.21\00:15:14.08
between Old and New Testament.
00:15:14.11\00:15:15.44
First is justification by faith.
00:15:15.48\00:15:17.58
We see justification by
faith in the Old Testament.
00:15:17.65\00:15:20.02
I'm just picking Genesis 15:6.
00:15:20.05\00:15:23.15
"This is Abraham
believed in the Lord,
00:15:23.18\00:15:25.69
and it was accounted to him
or reckoned or imputed to him
00:15:25.72\00:15:30.73
for righteousness."
00:15:30.76\00:15:32.09
I think of Zachariah 3,
00:15:32.13\00:15:33.50
Joshua the high priest
00:15:33.53\00:15:35.06
clothed in
those filthy garments.
00:15:35.10\00:15:36.83
And he was covered
00:15:36.87\00:15:38.63
with the righteous
white robe of Christ,
00:15:38.67\00:15:41.37
His righteousness.
00:15:41.40\00:15:42.74
Justification by faith,
00:15:42.77\00:15:44.11
of course, we see
that in the New Testament.
00:15:44.17\00:15:46.11
In Romans 3,
00:15:46.14\00:15:47.48
we are justified
freely by His grace.
00:15:47.54\00:15:50.41
In verse 28, it says,
00:15:50.45\00:15:51.78
"We conclude that
a man is justified.
00:15:51.81\00:15:54.38
Therefore, we conclude that
a man is justified by faith,
00:15:54.42\00:15:56.95
apart from the
deeds of the law."
00:15:56.99\00:15:59.79
What about forgiveness of sins?
00:15:59.82\00:16:01.66
Isaiah 43:25,
00:16:01.69\00:16:04.06
"I, even I,
00:16:04.09\00:16:05.43
am He who blots
out your transgressions
00:16:05.46\00:16:08.46
for My own sake,
00:16:08.50\00:16:09.83
and I will not
remember your sins."
00:16:09.86\00:16:11.83
We see forgiveness of
sins in the Old Testament
00:16:11.87\00:16:14.77
and, of course, in the New.
00:16:14.80\00:16:16.14
1 John 1:9,
00:16:16.17\00:16:17.51
"If we confess our sins,
00:16:17.54\00:16:18.87
He's faithful and
just to forgive us
00:16:18.91\00:16:20.28
and to cleanse us
from all unrighteousness."
00:16:20.31\00:16:23.08
We see God's law is
written in our hearts
00:16:23.11\00:16:26.61
in the Old Testament.
00:16:26.65\00:16:28.18
We think that's a
New Testament concept,
00:16:28.22\00:16:29.88
but it's also in
the Old Testament.
00:16:29.92\00:16:31.75
Deuteronomy 11:18,
00:16:31.79\00:16:34.62
"You shall lay up
these words of mine
00:16:34.66\00:16:36.06
in your heart and in your soul,
00:16:36.09\00:16:37.86
bind them as a
sign on your hand,
00:16:37.89\00:16:40.20
and they shall be as
frontlets between your eyes."
00:16:40.23\00:16:42.46
So we see salvation
by grace through faith,
00:16:42.50\00:16:45.40
throughout the
whole Word of God.
00:16:45.43\00:16:47.10
The plan of
salvation is the same
00:16:47.14\00:16:48.47
from Genesis to Revelation.
00:16:48.50\00:16:51.14
Amen. Nice answer. Thank you.
00:16:51.17\00:16:53.14
Pastor. Dinzey. This
is a very good question.
00:16:53.17\00:16:56.71
And this person is asking,
or they're basically saying,
00:16:56.75\00:16:59.31
"If I keep the
Sabbath commandment
00:16:59.35\00:17:01.18
I'll get fired.
00:17:01.22\00:17:02.75
What should I do?"
00:17:02.78\00:17:04.52
That's a good question.
00:17:04.55\00:17:06.52
One, trust in the Lord.
00:17:06.55\00:17:08.42
Trust in the Lord.
00:17:08.46\00:17:09.79
You know, we
have to make decisions
00:17:09.82\00:17:12.69
based on our faith
and our love for the Lord.
00:17:12.73\00:17:15.40
Jesus says, "If you love
Me, keep My commandments."
00:17:15.43\00:17:18.47
Now you have a situation here
where your job is in danger,
00:17:18.50\00:17:22.57
but as Peter said,
00:17:22.60\00:17:24.04
"We should obey
God rather than men."
00:17:24.11\00:17:26.78
And believe me,
00:17:26.81\00:17:28.64
the promises of
the Lord are true.
00:17:28.68\00:17:30.35
Philippians 4:19 says,
00:17:30.38\00:17:31.71
"My God shall
supply all your need
00:17:31.75\00:17:33.25
according to his
riches in glory."
00:17:33.28\00:17:34.62
He can supply you
not only another job,
00:17:34.65\00:17:37.02
but even a better job.
00:17:37.09\00:17:38.95
And so, I encourage
you to trust the Lord,
00:17:38.99\00:17:41.86
talk to them first
and say, look, you know,
00:17:41.89\00:17:43.73
I would like to keep this job,
00:17:43.76\00:17:45.09
but this job hinders me
from being faithful to my Lord
00:17:45.13\00:17:48.73
because of this.
00:17:48.76\00:17:50.13
Is there
something we can work out?
00:17:50.17\00:17:51.50
I'll work any other time.
00:17:51.53\00:17:52.97
And you might be surprised
00:17:53.00\00:17:54.37
to see how the Lord
solves that problem.
00:17:54.40\00:17:56.67
If however they say no,
00:17:56.71\00:17:58.04
I encourage you to
be faithful to the Lord
00:17:58.07\00:18:00.04
and follow Him
with all your heart.
00:18:00.11\00:18:01.64
In Deuteronomy 5:29.
00:18:01.68\00:18:03.68
It says,
00:18:03.71\00:18:05.05
"Oh, that they had
such a heart in them
00:18:05.08\00:18:06.68
that they would fear Me
00:18:06.75\00:18:08.38
and always keep
all My commandments,
00:18:08.42\00:18:10.52
that it might be well with them
00:18:10.55\00:18:11.92
and with their
children forever!"
00:18:11.95\00:18:13.82
Following the Lord,
obeying His commandments
00:18:13.89\00:18:15.99
brings you into the security
of being blessed by the Lord.
00:18:16.02\00:18:20.93
If you choose to
disobey the Lord,
00:18:20.96\00:18:22.73
then you are
placing yourself in danger
00:18:22.76\00:18:24.93
of not receiving
all the blessings
00:18:24.97\00:18:26.94
that the Lord wants to give you.
00:18:26.97\00:18:28.34
So I encourage
you to be faithful
00:18:28.37\00:18:30.01
to God's commandments
00:18:30.04\00:18:31.37
and He will bless you.
00:18:31.41\00:18:32.74
Amen. Amen.
00:18:32.77\00:18:34.11
Praise the Lord for that.
00:18:34.14\00:18:35.48
Pastor Lomacang.
00:18:35.51\00:18:36.85
This person is
asking in the Bible
00:18:36.88\00:18:40.12
on more than one occasion,
00:18:40.15\00:18:41.85
it talks about God
hardening their hearts.
00:18:41.88\00:18:45.69
Why would God harden
hearts against Himself?
00:18:45.72\00:18:48.82
Okay, wonderful.
00:18:48.86\00:18:50.23
The first place you
find that in scripture
00:18:50.26\00:18:51.59
talked about the most is
00:18:51.63\00:18:52.96
when it came to the Egyptians
00:18:52.99\00:18:55.40
resisting the call of
God to let my people go.
00:18:55.43\00:18:59.87
Moses and Aaron came
repeatedly and said to Pharaoh,
00:18:59.90\00:19:02.87
God has said, let my people go.
00:19:02.90\00:19:04.51
And you find in Exodus 8:15.
00:19:04.54\00:19:06.81
It says,
00:19:06.84\00:19:08.18
"But when Pharaoh saw
that there was relief.
00:19:08.21\00:19:11.31
He hardened his
heart and did not heed them
00:19:11.35\00:19:15.98
as the Lord had said."
00:19:16.02\00:19:17.62
So the process
started with Pharaoh.
00:19:17.65\00:19:19.89
Let's use an example.
00:19:19.92\00:19:21.26
God said, "Here's
what I want you to do."
00:19:21.29\00:19:22.62
And you say, "No, I
don't wanna do that."
00:19:22.66\00:19:24.06
And Pharaoh went on and said,
00:19:24.09\00:19:25.43
"Who is God that I
should obey His voice."
00:19:25.46\00:19:27.50
He thought of himself
as being the King of Egypt,
00:19:27.56\00:19:30.10
the leader in Egypt
00:19:30.17\00:19:31.50
who is greater and
higher and above me,
00:19:31.53\00:19:33.34
he did not know the
God of Moses and Aaron.
00:19:33.37\00:19:36.71
God continued.
00:19:36.74\00:19:38.07
So as it is in 2 Thessalonians,
this is what the situation was.
00:19:38.11\00:19:42.44
He continued to
resist the appeals
00:19:42.48\00:19:45.35
of the voice of God.
00:19:45.38\00:19:46.72
And as was the case
in Genesis Chapter 6,
00:19:46.75\00:19:48.88
the Bible says,
00:19:48.92\00:19:50.29
"My spirit will not
always strive with man."
00:19:50.32\00:19:52.25
So the Lord decided, I'm
not gonna strive with him.
00:19:52.29\00:19:54.46
I'm gonna give
him what he wants.
00:19:54.49\00:19:55.96
And here's what the Bible says.
00:19:55.99\00:19:57.73
2 Thessalonians 2:10-12,
00:19:57.76\00:20:00.90
"And with all
unrighteous deception
00:20:00.93\00:20:02.70
among those who perish,
00:20:02.73\00:20:04.27
because they did not
receive the love of the truth,
00:20:04.30\00:20:06.47
that they might be saved.
00:20:06.50\00:20:07.84
The Lord wanted to save Pharaoh
00:20:07.87\00:20:09.54
from the natural
results of his rebellion.
00:20:09.57\00:20:12.74
So what did God do?
This is what God did.
00:20:12.77\00:20:14.94
If this is not, if
you don't want truth,
00:20:14.98\00:20:16.54
I'm gonna send
you what you want.
00:20:16.58\00:20:17.95
And here's what the Lord did.
00:20:17.98\00:20:19.45
And for this reason,
verse 11 of 2 Thessalonians 2,
00:20:19.48\00:20:22.58
"God will send
them strong delusion
00:20:22.62\00:20:24.15
that they should believe the lie
00:20:24.19\00:20:25.52
that they all may be condemned,
00:20:25.55\00:20:27.02
who did not believe the truth,
00:20:27.06\00:20:28.39
but had pleasure
in unrighteousness."
00:20:28.42\00:20:30.33
And so you find here clearly
00:20:30.39\00:20:32.56
the hardening of the heart is
00:20:32.59\00:20:33.96
how sin begins
to work on humanity.
00:20:34.00\00:20:37.40
The resistance to
persistent resistance
00:20:37.43\00:20:39.97
is what brings a person
to rebellion against God.
00:20:40.00\00:20:42.27
And God says, since
you don't want the truth,
00:20:42.30\00:20:44.24
I'm going to give
you what you want.
00:20:44.27\00:20:45.67
And the end
result will be the seed
00:20:45.71\00:20:48.41
you planted in
the very beginning.
00:20:48.44\00:20:51.81
Wow. Powerful. Good answer.
00:20:51.85\00:20:54.62
Jill, I'm gonna be
coming back to you for this one.
00:20:54.65\00:20:57.12
And this person
asks a simple question.
00:20:57.15\00:20:59.72
"Why do I keep backsliding?"
00:20:59.75\00:21:03.06
I would ask two questions.
00:21:03.09\00:21:04.99
First is what or
who were you looking at?
00:21:05.03\00:21:07.40
And the second is
what are you focused on?
00:21:07.40\00:21:09.80
So if you look at
who are you looking at?
00:21:09.83\00:21:11.33
I think of Hebrews
12, Hebrews 12:1-2,
00:21:11.37\00:21:15.20
"Therefore we also,
00:21:15.24\00:21:16.57
since we are surrounded by
so great a cloud of witnesses,
00:21:16.60\00:21:19.61
let us lay aside every weight
00:21:19.64\00:21:21.41
and the sin which
so easily besets us,
00:21:21.44\00:21:24.48
and let us run with endurance
00:21:24.51\00:21:25.88
the race that is set before us."
00:21:25.91\00:21:27.28
Verse 2,
00:21:27.32\00:21:28.65
"Looking unto Jesus,
00:21:28.68\00:21:30.69
the author and
finisher of our faith,
00:21:30.75\00:21:33.19
who for the joy
that was set before Him
00:21:33.22\00:21:34.76
endured the cross,
despising the shame,
00:21:34.79\00:21:37.03
and has sat down
00:21:37.09\00:21:38.46
at the right hand
of the throne of God."
00:21:38.49\00:21:40.96
You know,
oftentimes we backslide
00:21:41.00\00:21:43.10
because we look at Satan.
00:21:43.13\00:21:44.47
We backslide because
we look at our problems.
00:21:44.50\00:21:47.47
We backslide because we look
at the world or our failures,
00:21:47.50\00:21:50.47
or even our successes.
00:21:50.54\00:21:53.24
We need to look at Jesus.
00:21:53.31\00:21:54.64
2 Corinthians 3:18
00:21:54.68\00:21:57.28
tells us we are
changed, you and I,
00:21:57.31\00:21:59.68
by beholding Jesus.
00:21:59.71\00:22:02.38
The other principle I
think we need to keep in mind
00:22:02.42\00:22:04.49
when considering this
concept of backsliding is
00:22:04.52\00:22:06.96
who, what are you focused on?
00:22:06.99\00:22:11.26
Romans 13:14 has an
interesting concept.
00:22:11.29\00:22:13.23
It says,
00:22:13.26\00:22:14.56
"But put on the
Lord Jesus Christ,
00:22:14.60\00:22:16.03
and make no
provision for the flesh
00:22:16.06\00:22:19.03
to fulfill its lusts."
00:22:19.07\00:22:22.20
What are you putting on?
00:22:22.24\00:22:23.77
Are you putting on Jesus?
00:22:23.81\00:22:25.14
And are you making
provision in your life?
00:22:25.17\00:22:27.61
All that means is
00:22:27.64\00:22:29.28
what you feed grows
and what you starve dies.
00:22:29.31\00:22:33.18
Paul tells us in Galatians 6,
00:22:33.21\00:22:34.75
"He who sows to the flesh
00:22:34.78\00:22:36.28
will of the
flesh reap corruption.
00:22:36.32\00:22:38.72
But he who sows to the spirit
00:22:38.75\00:22:40.12
will of the spirit
reap everlasting life."
00:22:40.16\00:22:43.09
So if you feed on God,
if you feed on His Word,
00:22:43.12\00:22:45.99
if you spend time
with godly people,
00:22:46.03\00:22:48.50
listen to godly music,
you will grow spiritually.
00:22:48.53\00:22:52.37
But if by contrast,
00:22:52.40\00:22:53.87
if you feed on
things of the world,
00:22:53.90\00:22:56.04
worldly music or
friends that pull you from God,
00:22:56.07\00:22:59.37
you will backslide.
00:22:59.41\00:23:01.01
So focus on God and
fill your soul with Him.
00:23:01.04\00:23:05.38
Praise the Lord.
And thank you for that.
00:23:05.41\00:23:06.92
I love the Bible is so clear
00:23:06.95\00:23:08.72
and I praise the
Lord for that answer.
00:23:08.75\00:23:10.22
Thank you.
00:23:10.29\00:23:11.62
Pastor Dinzey,
00:23:11.65\00:23:12.99
we're going to come
back to you for this one.
00:23:13.02\00:23:14.56
"Isn't the Sabbath
only for the Jews?"
00:23:14.59\00:23:18.19
Well, the short answer is no,
00:23:18.23\00:23:20.70
because God wants to bless
00:23:20.73\00:23:22.40
every single person
of every single race.
00:23:22.43\00:23:24.87
So the Sabbath is...
00:23:24.90\00:23:26.23
That's why Jesus
said in Matthew 2:27,
00:23:26.27\00:23:28.00
"The Sabbath was made for
man, not man for the Sabbath."
00:23:28.04\00:23:31.71
And so remember also,
00:23:31.74\00:23:33.24
then when you go to
Genesis Chapter 1 and Chapter 2,
00:23:33.27\00:23:36.54
you'll see clearly that
00:23:36.58\00:23:37.91
the Lord
blessed the seventh day,
00:23:37.95\00:23:40.82
which is the
Sabbath and sanctified it.
00:23:40.88\00:23:43.45
You can also see
that in Exodus 20:8-11,
00:23:43.49\00:23:45.99
"The Lord set that
day aside for His people
00:23:46.02\00:23:49.02
to show up before
Him and worship Him."
00:23:49.06\00:23:51.63
And I would like
to include in this
00:23:51.66\00:23:55.00
a scripture that
will help you see this.
00:23:55.03\00:23:56.36
You see, God
selected the people of Israel
00:23:56.40\00:24:00.04
to be His
representatives in the world
00:24:00.07\00:24:01.87
so that all the world will
see how blessed are the people
00:24:01.90\00:24:05.31
that follow God's commandments.
00:24:05.34\00:24:06.68
Notice, Isaiah 56:6-7,
00:24:06.71\00:24:09.14
"Also the sons of the foreigner
00:24:09.18\00:24:11.65
who joined themselves
to the Lord to serve Him,
00:24:11.68\00:24:14.22
and to love the
name of the Lord,
00:24:14.25\00:24:15.68
to be His servants.
00:24:15.72\00:24:17.09
Everyone who keeps
from defiling, the Sabbath
00:24:17.12\00:24:19.69
and hold fast my Covenant.
00:24:19.72\00:24:21.39
Even them I will
bring to my holy mountain,
00:24:21.42\00:24:23.63
and make them joyful
in My house of prayer.
00:24:23.66\00:24:26.29
Their burnt offerings
00:24:26.33\00:24:27.66
and their sacrifices
will be accepted on my altar,
00:24:27.66\00:24:29.76
for My house
00:24:29.80\00:24:31.13
shall be called
the house of prayer
00:24:31.17\00:24:32.50
for all nations."
00:24:32.53\00:24:33.90
So in this scripture and others,
00:24:33.94\00:24:35.27
we see that God's intention
was that through the Jews,
00:24:35.30\00:24:38.07
a message will be
brought to the world
00:24:38.11\00:24:40.84
to show the world.
00:24:40.88\00:24:42.38
If you follow My commandments,
00:24:42.41\00:24:44.11
you will be blessed
like these people are.
00:24:44.15\00:24:46.15
So the Sabbath commandment
00:24:46.18\00:24:47.58
and all the commandments
00:24:47.62\00:24:48.95
are for all the people
00:24:48.98\00:24:50.35
of all the nations in the world.
00:24:50.39\00:24:52.39
Amen. Amen.
00:24:52.42\00:24:53.76
Thank you so much
for that, Brother.
00:24:53.82\00:24:55.16
You know, the Bible is so clear
00:24:55.19\00:24:56.52
and this
program is just for that
00:24:56.56\00:24:58.93
to clear up some things.
00:24:58.96\00:25:00.63
If you have questions,
00:25:00.66\00:25:02.13
we want to
provide a Bible answer
00:25:02.16\00:25:03.97
for those questions.
00:25:04.00\00:25:05.33
And so, if you're
just now tuning in,
00:25:05.37\00:25:06.87

It's a new program and
we're excited about it.
00:25:10.24\00:25:12.07
And we wanna tell you
00:25:12.11\00:25:13.48

00:25:13.51\00:25:15.68
and you can do that two ways,
00:25:15.71\00:25:17.05
first way is through email.
00:25:17.08\00:25:18.68
And as you can see
on the screen there,
00:25:18.71\00:25:20.05

or you can text in your question
00:25:24.69\00:25:27.16
to (618) 228-3975.
00:25:27.19\00:25:31.83
So send in those questions
00:25:31.86\00:25:33.70
because we have a wonderful
group of panelists here, guests
00:25:33.73\00:25:37.33
who are using the Word of
God to answer these questions.
00:25:37.37\00:25:40.00
And we're very
thankful for that.
00:25:40.04\00:25:41.54
Pastor Lomacang,
00:25:41.57\00:25:43.17
the next question
goes to you, my Brother,
00:25:43.20\00:25:45.61
and this comes,
00:25:45.64\00:25:46.98
they are asking
about Revelation 22:2.
00:25:47.04\00:25:49.44
Okay.
00:25:49.48\00:25:50.81
And the question is,
00:25:50.85\00:25:52.18
"Why will we need
the leaves of the tree
00:25:52.21\00:25:54.92
for healing?"
00:25:54.95\00:25:56.28
That's a good
question. Oh, wonderful.
00:25:56.32\00:25:57.65
Now, first of all,
00:25:57.69\00:25:59.02
let's look at the first time
the Bible talks about a tree.
00:25:59.05\00:26:01.49
We go right back to
the Book of Genesis.
00:26:01.52\00:26:03.89
What happened at that tree?
00:26:03.96\00:26:05.76
A wound took place.
00:26:05.79\00:26:07.56
The unity that God shared
with Adam and Eve was violated.
00:26:07.60\00:26:12.53
It was a breaking
of a relationship.
00:26:12.57\00:26:15.17
So the word
healing in Revelation
00:26:15.20\00:26:16.81
is not talking about healing
as it relates to illness.
00:26:16.84\00:26:19.71
Because the Bible
says in Revelation 21:4,
00:26:19.74\00:26:22.71
"No more sorrow, no
more crying, no more death,
00:26:22.74\00:26:24.38
neither shall
there be any more pain."
00:26:24.41\00:26:26.08
And Isaiah says,
00:26:26.11\00:26:27.45
there'll be no
sickness in the new earth.
00:26:27.52\00:26:29.38
We will long enjoy
00:26:29.42\00:26:31.02
the health that God is
going to give to his redeemed
00:26:31.05\00:26:33.76
that are gonna have immortality.
00:26:33.79\00:26:35.86
So if you have immortality
and you never gonna die again,
00:26:35.89\00:26:38.96
what is the
healing world all about?
00:26:38.99\00:26:40.70
Well, at the tree in Genesis,
00:26:40.73\00:26:42.53
that's where the first
violated relationship occurred.
00:26:42.56\00:26:46.03
The tree talked
about in Revelation
00:26:46.07\00:26:48.14
is for the
mending of the nations.
00:26:48.17\00:26:51.27
Let me give you an example.
00:26:51.31\00:26:52.64
In Genesis 11:8-9,
look what happened.
00:26:52.67\00:26:55.71
"So the Lord
scattered them abroad
00:26:55.74\00:26:57.98
from there over the
face of all the earth
00:26:58.01\00:27:01.08
and they cease
building the city.
00:27:01.12\00:27:02.52
Therefore, it is named Babel
00:27:02.55\00:27:04.69
because there the Lord confused
00:27:04.72\00:27:07.12
the languages of all the earth.
00:27:07.19\00:27:09.52
And from there, the
Lord scattered them abroad
00:27:09.56\00:27:11.86
over the face of all the earth."
00:27:11.89\00:27:13.36
So in man's
rebellion, they were scattered.
00:27:13.43\00:27:16.36
At the tree of
life they'll be healed.
00:27:16.40\00:27:18.00
They'll be
brought back together.
00:27:18.03\00:27:19.40
So the word there
healing is simply talking about
00:27:19.43\00:27:21.80
the mending of the nations.
00:27:21.84\00:27:23.61
Right now we have
waters dividing us
00:27:23.64\00:27:25.24
all over the earth.
00:27:25.27\00:27:26.61
Right now we are divided
by culture and nationality,
00:27:26.68\00:27:29.01
ethnicity.
00:27:29.04\00:27:30.38
Right now there's
racism, there's unity,
00:27:30.45\00:27:32.48
there's violation of cultures.
00:27:32.51\00:27:34.55
There's all kinds of aspirations
00:27:34.58\00:27:36.79
that men have to
dominate one another.
00:27:36.82\00:27:38.89
But those who are redeemed,
they'll be on the same plane.
00:27:38.92\00:27:41.62
They'll be united.
00:27:41.66\00:27:43.19
As they fellowship together,
00:27:43.22\00:27:44.63
the koinonia at
the tree of life,
00:27:44.66\00:27:46.93
they will be mended
in their relationships,
00:27:47.00\00:27:48.83
one with another.
00:27:48.86\00:27:50.23
So it's not sickness,
00:27:50.27\00:27:51.60
but it's bringing man
back in unity with one another.
00:27:51.63\00:27:55.70
Nice solid answer. Amen.
00:27:55.74\00:27:57.31
I like that. Praise the Lord.
00:27:57.37\00:27:58.94
Pastor Dinzey, I'm
gonna come back to you
00:27:58.97\00:28:00.71
with this next question.
00:28:00.74\00:28:02.61
"Does the Bible teach
00:28:02.64\00:28:04.18
that there will be
seven years of tribulation
00:28:04.21\00:28:07.45
before the
second coming of Jesus?"
00:28:07.48\00:28:10.42
The Bible doesn't teach that
00:28:10.45\00:28:11.79
there will be
seven specific years
00:28:11.82\00:28:14.36
of tribulation
00:28:14.39\00:28:15.72
before the coming of Jesus.
00:28:15.76\00:28:17.09
The Bible does teach
that there will be tribulation
00:28:17.16\00:28:19.09
before the coming of Jesus.
00:28:19.13\00:28:21.10
Now, some people may be shocked
00:28:21.13\00:28:23.37
that, you know,
00:28:23.40\00:28:24.80
you say a tribulation
00:28:24.83\00:28:26.17
that God's people will
go through tribulation.
00:28:26.20\00:28:27.77
It doesn't
specify how many years,
00:28:27.80\00:28:29.14
but there will be.
00:28:29.17\00:28:30.51
If it's seven years,
well, praise the Lord,
00:28:30.54\00:28:32.41
the Lord will be with us
no matter how long it is.
00:28:32.44\00:28:35.91
I personally think
it won't be that long.
00:28:35.94\00:28:38.35
Let's look at
Revelation Chapter 7,
00:28:38.38\00:28:41.08
we see verse 9.
00:28:41.12\00:28:42.45
It says, "After
these things I looked,
00:28:42.48\00:28:43.92
and behold, a great multitude
which no one could number,
00:28:43.99\00:28:46.96
of all nations,
tribes, peoples, and tongues,
00:28:46.99\00:28:48.92
standing before the
throne and before the Lamb,
00:28:48.96\00:28:51.26
clothed with white robes,
00:28:51.29\00:28:52.69
with palm
branches in their hands."
00:28:52.73\00:28:54.46
I'm jumping to
verse 13 because of time.
00:28:54.46\00:28:56.30
"Then one of the
elders answered, saying to me,
00:28:56.33\00:28:58.53
'Who are these
arrayed in white robes,
00:28:58.57\00:29:00.77
and where did they come from?'
00:29:00.80\00:29:02.34
And I said to him,
00:29:02.37\00:29:03.74
'Sir, you know.' "
00:29:03.77\00:29:05.11
Good answer.
00:29:05.14\00:29:06.47
"So he said to me,
00:29:06.51\00:29:07.84
'These are the ones
00:29:07.88\00:29:09.24
who come out of
the great tribulation,
00:29:09.28\00:29:10.98
and washed their
robes and made them white
00:29:11.01\00:29:13.08
in the blood of the Lamb.' "
00:29:13.11\00:29:14.68
So yes, there
will be a tribulation.
00:29:14.72\00:29:17.12
How long it is? The
Bible doesn't specify.
00:29:17.15\00:29:19.69
Some people try to get a
seven from Daniel Chapter 9,
00:29:19.72\00:29:23.46
the very last
two or three verses.
00:29:23.49\00:29:25.69
But how many years
it is, we do not know.
00:29:25.73\00:29:28.56
What we should
do is watch and pray
00:29:28.60\00:29:31.67
and be ready for
whatever comes our way,
00:29:31.70\00:29:34.40
looking unto Jesus, the author
and finisher of our faith.
00:29:34.44\00:29:37.31
Amen. Amen. Praise the Lord.
00:29:37.34\00:29:39.74
Okay, Jill, this next question
comes to you, an exciting one.
00:29:39.77\00:29:45.41
This one can be a
little controversial,
00:29:45.45\00:29:47.95
but we're going to give
00:29:47.98\00:29:49.32
the best Bible
answer we can give.
00:29:49.35\00:29:50.69
And I know you will.
00:29:50.72\00:29:52.05
"Isn't it true
00:29:52.09\00:29:53.46
that women should
not teach or preach
00:29:53.49\00:29:56.09
based on what Paul communicates
00:29:56.12\00:29:58.26
about women keeping
silent in the church?"
00:29:58.29\00:30:01.66
That's a heavy
question and a loaded question
00:30:01.70\00:30:03.73
and a controversial question.
00:30:03.77\00:30:05.67
There's two
references in Paul's writings
00:30:05.70\00:30:07.40
that would reference that.
00:30:07.44\00:30:08.77
One is in 1 Corinthians 14,
but we're going to 1 Timothy 2.
00:30:08.80\00:30:11.91
So turn with me to 1 Timothy 2,
00:30:11.94\00:30:13.44
we're gonna look at specifically
00:30:13.48\00:30:14.81
two of these
verses, verses 11 and 12.
00:30:14.84\00:30:17.85
The issue in 1 Timothy,
00:30:17.88\00:30:19.21
of course, is the
issue of false teaching
00:30:19.25\00:30:21.28
that Paul is
addressing to Timothy.
00:30:21.32\00:30:23.02
In verse 11, it says,
00:30:23.05\00:30:24.62
"Let a woman learn in
silence with all submission."
00:30:24.65\00:30:29.39
So the first
thing to keep in mind
00:30:29.42\00:30:30.79
is that the word let
00:30:30.83\00:30:32.16
is literally a command from Paul
00:30:32.19\00:30:34.03
and he's
commanding woman should learn.
00:30:34.10\00:30:37.80
Now, this actually
turns it on its head
00:30:37.83\00:30:39.90
because in their
culture, in that time,
00:30:39.97\00:30:43.54
women weren't supposed to learn.
00:30:43.57\00:30:45.14
In fact, the rabbis
refused to teach women
00:30:45.17\00:30:49.11
and it was even like
00:30:49.14\00:30:50.48
into throwing
pearls to pigs or to swine
00:30:50.51\00:30:53.65
the concept of teaching a woman.
00:30:53.68\00:30:55.65
So in their culture,
00:30:55.68\00:30:57.12
Paul is turning it
on its head and saying,
00:30:57.15\00:30:59.52
not just don't teach
the woman, teach the woman.
00:30:59.55\00:31:03.43
And they are to
learn in silence.
00:31:03.46\00:31:05.33
That word silence does
not mean speechlessness.
00:31:05.36\00:31:08.46
It simply means in the
Greek peacefulness or calmness.
00:31:08.50\00:31:12.70
Now, if you look
at the Jewish culture
00:31:12.73\00:31:14.94
of that time,
00:31:14.97\00:31:16.30
the men and women were in
opposite sides of the church.
00:31:16.34\00:31:19.07
And clearly if a
woman's asking a question
00:31:19.11\00:31:21.18
and standing up and raising
00:31:21.21\00:31:22.54
from one side of the
church to the other side,
00:31:22.58\00:31:24.55
that's not calmness
00:31:24.58\00:31:26.35
and
peacefulness and orderliness.
00:31:26.38\00:31:28.48
Now let's look at verse 12.
00:31:28.52\00:31:30.05
"I do not
permit a woman to teach
00:31:30.09\00:31:31.95
or to have authority over a man,
00:31:31.99\00:31:34.39
but to be in silence."
00:31:34.42\00:31:37.49
There's two things here
that people apply this for,
00:31:37.53\00:31:40.10
first, as they say,
women shouldn't teach
00:31:40.16\00:31:41.90
and the second
00:31:41.93\00:31:43.30
woman should not
have authority over a man.
00:31:43.33\00:31:45.23
So let's look at
scripture, not just in context,
00:31:45.27\00:31:48.17
but the whole
of the Word of God,
00:31:48.20\00:31:50.24
not just one verse here.
00:31:50.27\00:31:52.37
And if you look at
Paul, 1 Corinthians 11,
00:31:52.41\00:31:54.54
it's very clear
00:31:54.58\00:31:55.91
that every woman
who prays or prophesies
00:31:55.94\00:31:58.55
and he's speaking of women,
00:31:58.58\00:31:59.95
praying and prophesying
in public places in church.
00:32:00.05\00:32:03.69
We see Anna as a prophetess
00:32:03.72\00:32:05.45
speaking when
Jesus was just born
00:32:05.49\00:32:07.76
and brought to the temple.
00:32:07.79\00:32:09.12
That is in the
temple Anna is speaking.
00:32:09.16\00:32:12.79
We see Joel Chapter 2.
00:32:12.83\00:32:14.66
"We see it shall come to pass,
00:32:14.73\00:32:16.10
I will pour My
spirit on all flesh,
00:32:16.13\00:32:18.50
your sons and your
daughters shall prophesy."
00:32:18.53\00:32:21.47
We see clearly
in Acts Chapter 16,
00:32:21.50\00:32:23.87
that Aquila and Priscilla,
00:32:23.91\00:32:26.31
both of them taught
Apollos in scripture.
00:32:26.34\00:32:29.28
Paul could have just
said, Aquila did the teaching,
00:32:29.31\00:32:31.55
but he made it clear that
Priscilla taught a man as well.
00:32:31.58\00:32:35.22
We see that
woman labored with Paul
00:32:35.25\00:32:37.89
as co-laborers in the gospel.
00:32:37.92\00:32:40.52
So clearly this is not talking
about a woman not teaching
00:32:40.56\00:32:43.26
because of many
other references.
00:32:43.29\00:32:45.56
We see women were prophetesses.
00:32:45.59\00:32:47.13
We see women
taught in the temple
00:32:47.20\00:32:48.93
or in the synagogue or prayed
00:32:48.96\00:32:50.80
or prophesied in
a church setting.
00:32:50.83\00:32:53.77
I think the
context of this scripture,
00:32:53.80\00:32:55.84
we don't have
time to get into it.
00:32:55.87\00:32:57.47
But the context
of this scripture
00:32:57.54\00:32:58.94
has to do with
that line of authority.
00:32:58.97\00:33:02.31
We know Christ is
the head of the church.
00:33:02.34\00:33:04.18
We know in marriage,
00:33:04.25\00:33:05.58
the man is the
head of the woman.
00:33:05.61\00:33:07.02
And we know in church,
00:33:07.05\00:33:08.38
there are roles
00:33:08.42\00:33:09.75
that only a man is
supposed to assume.
00:33:09.78\00:33:11.45
We're not
talking about teaching.
00:33:11.49\00:33:13.22
The Word of God is very clear
that men and women can teach.
00:33:13.25\00:33:16.12
But I think that
verse in particular
00:33:16.16\00:33:17.99
refers to that line of authority
00:33:18.03\00:33:20.10
within the church.
00:33:20.13\00:33:21.43
Okay. Nice.
00:33:21.46\00:33:22.96
And that was a loaded question
for a couple of minutes.
00:33:23.00\00:33:24.73
And I took a little long.
00:33:24.77\00:33:26.53
No you didn't.
You did fantastic.
00:33:26.57\00:33:27.90
That was really, really good.
00:33:27.94\00:33:29.27
All right, Pastor Lomacang,
00:33:29.30\00:33:30.67
this next
question is coming to you.
00:33:30.71\00:33:32.04
And this is submitted by Eileen.
00:33:32.07\00:33:34.24
And she says this.
00:33:34.28\00:33:35.61
She says,
00:33:35.64\00:33:37.01
"What is the difference
00:33:37.05\00:33:38.75
when God withdraws His hand
00:33:38.78\00:33:40.58
and allows
something bad to happen?"
00:33:40.62\00:33:43.15
And, of course, she
says here, the work of Satan.
00:33:43.18\00:33:45.42
So what's the difference between
00:33:45.45\00:33:46.82
God allowing something
bad or negative to happen
00:33:46.86\00:33:48.96
and when to apply
that to the enemy?
00:33:48.99\00:33:50.69
So...
00:33:50.73\00:33:52.06
Well, the most famous
story in the Bible is in Job.
00:33:52.09\00:33:53.86
You know, the Bible says
00:33:53.90\00:33:55.36
when Satan came
bragging before the sons of God,
00:33:55.40\00:33:58.03
and it doesn't say
where the meeting took place,
00:33:58.07\00:34:00.94
but he said,
where'd you come from?
00:34:00.97\00:34:02.44
And he says, from
walking back and forth
00:34:02.47\00:34:04.37
and going to and
fro in the earth.
00:34:04.41\00:34:06.44
And this is in Job Chapter 1.
00:34:06.47\00:34:08.24
And he said,
00:34:08.28\00:34:09.61
when he bragged about
his ownership of the earth,
00:34:09.64\00:34:12.35
even Jesus said the
Prince of this world,
00:34:12.38\00:34:15.18
He said, "Have you
considered my servant Job?"
00:34:15.22\00:34:18.12
And what God did is Satan said,
00:34:18.15\00:34:20.79
"He's only serving You
because you're protecting him.
00:34:20.86\00:34:23.66
If you remove that protection,
00:34:23.73\00:34:25.06
I guarantee you he'll
curse you to your face."
00:34:25.09\00:34:27.40
The Lord
withdrew His protection,
00:34:27.40\00:34:29.96
but limited Satan's ability
to take it to the extreme
00:34:30.03\00:34:33.03
and take his life.
00:34:33.07\00:34:34.40
Do whatever you need to do.
00:34:34.44\00:34:35.77
Even touch him, even
afflict him with disease,
00:34:35.80\00:34:38.77
whatever you wanna
do, go ahead and do it.
00:34:38.81\00:34:40.74
But I guarantee you,
he would not deny Me.
00:34:40.78\00:34:42.41
And the Bible says,
00:34:42.44\00:34:43.81
in all this Job did
not charge God foolishly.
00:34:43.85\00:34:47.38
So what's the difference?
00:34:47.42\00:34:48.75
The Lord sometimes allow
00:34:48.78\00:34:50.15
adverse
circumstances to come our way,
00:34:50.19\00:34:52.05
but let me show you one of those
00:34:52.09\00:34:53.42
that we often don't consider.
00:34:53.46\00:34:55.02
Look at 1 Corinthians 5:5.
00:34:55.06\00:34:57.53
This is one of those situations
where God withdraws His hand
00:34:57.59\00:35:00.63
because the person is resistant
00:35:00.66\00:35:02.03
to the continual
appeals of the Spirit of God.
00:35:02.06\00:35:05.37
And the Lord still
wants to save them.
00:35:05.40\00:35:07.24
1 Corinthians 5:5 it says,
00:35:07.27\00:35:09.20
"Deliver such a one to Satan
00:35:09.24\00:35:11.91
for the destruction of the flesh
00:35:11.94\00:35:14.08
that his spirit may be saved
in the day of the Lord Jesus."
00:35:14.11\00:35:17.45
This is a very unique one.
00:35:17.48\00:35:19.21
Some people that
are just resistant,
00:35:19.25\00:35:21.05
they won't
listen to mom and dad.
00:35:21.08\00:35:22.82
They won't listen to
counsel from the pastor.
00:35:22.85\00:35:24.89
They are determined
to go their own way.
00:35:24.92\00:35:26.55
Hosea says,
00:35:26.59\00:35:27.92
"I'm gonna put briars
and thorns in your path.
00:35:27.96\00:35:29.86
You will never
overtake your lovers.
00:35:29.89\00:35:31.36
You'll never experience
00:35:31.39\00:35:32.96
the joy of sinful
pleasures for a season,
00:35:32.99\00:35:35.80
I'm gonna make
your journey difficult."
00:35:35.83\00:35:37.73
The Lord says,
00:35:37.77\00:35:39.10
"Hopefully, as I
turn you over to Satan,
00:35:39.13\00:35:41.07
for him to buffet you,
00:35:41.10\00:35:42.44
maybe you'll turn around
and in the end be saved."
00:35:42.47\00:35:45.01
So what's the difference?
00:35:45.04\00:35:46.37
We choose our path of rebellion,
00:35:46.41\00:35:48.34
but in every attempt,
00:35:48.38\00:35:49.71
the Lord is not
willing that any should perish,
00:35:49.74\00:35:52.11
but He does not
partner with Satan
00:35:52.15\00:35:54.35
in the salvation of humanity.
00:35:54.38\00:35:56.95
Amen. Amen. Praise the Lord.
00:35:56.99\00:35:58.32
Thank you, Brother.
00:35:58.35\00:35:59.85
Pastor John Dinzey,
00:35:59.89\00:36:01.56
I'm gonna come back to
you with this question.
00:36:01.59\00:36:03.46
And it says,
00:36:03.49\00:36:04.83
"If God is eternal,
00:36:04.86\00:36:06.93
why does the Bible
say in Revelation 3:14,
00:36:06.96\00:36:10.67
the beginning of
the creation of God."
00:36:10.70\00:36:14.07
Very good.
00:36:14.14\00:36:15.47
This is a scripture
that is used by some groups
00:36:15.50\00:36:17.41
to say that Jesus Christ
was the first creative being,
00:36:17.44\00:36:20.08
which is a serious mistake.
00:36:20.11\00:36:22.64
You see, Jesus is God.
00:36:22.68\00:36:24.55
And He has no
beginning that we can compute.
00:36:24.58\00:36:28.55
You mean you can
go if you were able to
00:36:28.58\00:36:30.72
go back in history,
00:36:30.79\00:36:32.25
as far as you could possibly go.
00:36:32.29\00:36:33.66
And there was no time
in which He did not exist
00:36:33.69\00:36:36.52
because He is eternal.
00:36:36.56\00:36:37.89
Revelation 3:14 says,
00:36:37.93\00:36:39.26
"And to the angel of the
church of the Laodiceans write,
00:36:39.29\00:36:41.63
'These things says the Amen,
00:36:41.66\00:36:43.20
the Faithful and True Witness,
00:36:43.23\00:36:44.57
the Beginning of
the creation of God.'
00:36:44.60\00:36:46.80
" Well, what does this mean?
00:36:46.84\00:36:48.17
This means that He
began the creation of God.
00:36:48.20\00:36:51.47
He's the originator
00:36:51.51\00:36:53.38
because, see the
word arche is used here
00:36:53.44\00:36:56.61
is the Greek word,
00:36:56.64\00:36:57.98
which means the
beginner or the beginning.
00:36:58.01\00:37:01.28
And in the context of this,
you have to understand that
00:37:01.32\00:37:03.65
Christ has no
beginning, no beginning of days.
00:37:03.72\00:37:07.09
When you go to John 1:1-3,
00:37:07.12\00:37:09.89
you see, in the
beginning was the Word,
00:37:09.92\00:37:12.06
and the Word was with
God, and the Word was God.
00:37:12.09\00:37:15.46
He was in the
beginning with God.
00:37:15.50\00:37:17.63
Whenever that beginning
was, He was at the beginning.
00:37:17.67\00:37:19.90
Well, no day can be specified,
00:37:19.93\00:37:21.97
oh, this particular day,
that's when He originated.
00:37:22.00\00:37:24.57
No, there is no
beginning of days for Him.
00:37:24.61\00:37:26.98
Notice verse 3,
00:37:27.01\00:37:28.34
"All things
were made through Him
00:37:28.38\00:37:30.75
and without Him,
00:37:30.78\00:37:32.11
nothing was made that was made."
00:37:32.15\00:37:34.62
So this means, if you say
that Christ is a creative being,
00:37:34.65\00:37:37.65
then you're in serious
trouble with the Scripture.
00:37:37.69\00:37:39.32
Because the Scripture
say, "He made all things."
00:37:39.35\00:37:42.06
So if He made all things,
well, who made Him, you see.
00:37:42.09\00:37:45.13
So it doesn't make sense
00:37:45.16\00:37:47.40
to say that Christ
is a creative being.
00:37:47.40\00:37:49.90
Christ is God,
00:37:49.93\00:37:51.27
has always been God,
and will always be God.
00:37:51.30\00:37:53.30
He is eternal.
00:37:53.34\00:37:54.67
Amen. Amen. Nice answer.
00:37:54.70\00:37:57.17
Jill, this question says,
00:37:57.21\00:37:59.21
"Can you have victory
over sin in this life?
00:37:59.24\00:38:03.11
And the answer
is a resounding yes.
00:38:03.14\00:38:04.88
Amen. Amen.
00:38:04.91\00:38:06.25
Grace is not a license for sin.
00:38:06.28\00:38:08.45
Grace enables you and I
to have victory over sin.
00:38:08.48\00:38:12.95
Paul says that in Romans 6:15,
00:38:12.99\00:38:14.89
"What then?
00:38:14.92\00:38:16.26
Shall we sin
because we are not under law
00:38:16.29\00:38:17.93
but under grace?
00:38:17.96\00:38:19.29
Certainly not!"
00:38:19.33\00:38:20.66
Or King James
says, "God forbid."
00:38:20.73\00:38:23.23
So how do we
have victory over sin?
00:38:23.26\00:38:25.20
I wanna give you five keys.
00:38:25.23\00:38:26.74
Number one,
00:38:26.77\00:38:28.10
recognize that
victory is a gift.
00:38:28.14\00:38:29.94
1 Corinthians 15:57,
00:38:30.01\00:38:31.84
"Thanks be to God
who gives us the victory
00:38:31.87\00:38:34.41
through our Lord Jesus Christ."
00:38:34.44\00:38:36.51
It doesn't come
from us trying harder.
00:38:36.54\00:38:38.68
Victory is a gift.
00:38:38.71\00:38:40.62
Principle number two,
00:38:40.65\00:38:41.98
choose the
master you will serve.
00:38:42.02\00:38:44.75
Every morning when you get up,
make a choice to follow Jesus.
00:38:44.79\00:38:48.29
Romans 6:16, Pastor John,
00:38:48.32\00:38:51.26
"Do you not know
00:38:51.29\00:38:52.63
that to whom you present
yourselves slaves to obey,
00:38:52.66\00:38:54.86
you are that one's
slaves to whom you obey,
00:38:54.93\00:38:57.70
whether of sin leading to death
00:38:57.73\00:38:59.33
or of obedience
leading to righteousness."
00:38:59.37\00:39:01.64
So choose who you want to serve.
00:39:01.67\00:39:04.47
Principle, number three,
allow Him to live in you.
00:39:04.51\00:39:09.71
Don't allow sin to live in you,
but allow Him to live in you.
00:39:09.74\00:39:13.48
Romans 7:17 says,
00:39:13.55\00:39:15.05
"It's not I who do it,
00:39:15.08\00:39:16.42
but it's sin that dwells in
me or has taken up residence."
00:39:16.45\00:39:19.72
You see, you're not the
one doing the sinful work.
00:39:19.75\00:39:21.46
It's because sin lives in you.
00:39:21.49\00:39:23.56
But by contrast Galatians 2:20,
00:39:23.59\00:39:27.50
"I've been
crucified with Christ.
00:39:27.56\00:39:29.13
It's no longer I who
live, but Christ lives in me."
00:39:29.16\00:39:32.90
So the life we live
00:39:32.93\00:39:34.27
with the good
works in the victory
00:39:34.30\00:39:35.64
is not me doing the work,
00:39:35.67\00:39:37.11
it's Christ living in me.
00:39:37.14\00:39:39.31
Principle number
four, abide in Him.
00:39:39.34\00:39:41.08
John Chapter 15,
00:39:41.11\00:39:42.61
"As the branch
abides in the vine,
00:39:42.64\00:39:44.75
we are to abide in Him
that His power can come in us."
00:39:44.78\00:39:49.55
Principle number
five, walk in the spirit.
00:39:49.58\00:39:52.55
Romans 8:1,
00:39:52.59\00:39:53.96
"There is no condemnation
00:39:53.99\00:39:55.32
to those who are in Christ Jesus
00:39:55.36\00:39:56.69
who do not walk
according to the flesh,
00:39:56.73\00:39:58.23
but according to the spirit."
00:39:58.26\00:39:59.79
So victory over sin
is possible in this life.
00:39:59.83\00:40:03.33
Amen. Praise the Lord.
00:40:03.37\00:40:05.40
All right. That
was a good answer.
00:40:05.43\00:40:06.80
Amen.
00:40:06.84\00:40:08.17
All right. Very good.
00:40:08.20\00:40:09.54
Pastor Dinzey, I'm
actually gonna take the time
00:40:09.57\00:40:10.91
to come back to you
00:40:10.94\00:40:12.27
because we have that
first question earlier,
00:40:12.31\00:40:14.38
where they ask for you
to explain Colossians 3:5,
00:40:14.41\00:40:17.15
and we didn't get to
go to the second verse
00:40:17.21\00:40:18.91
which was 1 Thessalonians 5:5-8.
00:40:18.95\00:40:23.95
So let me give you
an opportunity to...
00:40:23.99\00:40:25.49
Oh, we have it
here. I have it here.
00:40:25.52\00:40:27.76
Well, praise the Lord,
we have the opportunity.
00:40:27.79\00:40:29.42
1 Thessalonians 5:5-8 says,
00:40:29.46\00:40:31.89
"You are the sons of
light and the sons of the day."
00:40:31.93\00:40:36.36
Notice how it
makes a contrast here
00:40:36.40\00:40:37.93
between light and darkness.
00:40:37.97\00:40:39.30
"We Are not of the
night nor of darkness.
00:40:39.33\00:40:42.34
Therefore let us
not sleep, as others do,
00:40:42.37\00:40:45.11
but let us watch and be sober.
00:40:45.14\00:40:47.51
For those who
sleep, sleep at night,
00:40:47.54\00:40:49.68
and those who get
drunk are drunk at night.
00:40:49.71\00:40:52.01
But let us who are
of the day be sober,
00:40:52.05\00:40:54.95
putting on the
breastplate of faith and love,
00:40:54.98\00:40:57.75
and as a helmet
the hope of salvation."
00:40:57.79\00:41:01.32
So here's making a contrast
00:41:01.36\00:41:02.82
between light and
darkness, good and evil.
00:41:02.86\00:41:06.33
Darkness being
evil, light being good.
00:41:06.36\00:41:09.50
And so here in this scripture,
00:41:09.53\00:41:11.63
we are told to let us not sleep
00:41:11.67\00:41:13.70
in the sense of
doing evil deeds,
00:41:13.74\00:41:16.44
because when you
look at this scripture
00:41:16.47\00:41:18.87
and the context of it is,
00:41:18.91\00:41:20.24
it's trying to
help us understand
00:41:20.28\00:41:21.71
that light is good
and darkness is evil.
00:41:21.74\00:41:25.25
And that's why it says
that we are of the day be sober.
00:41:25.28\00:41:30.55
And this, it makes a
good fit for 1 John 1:5-7.
00:41:30.59\00:41:36.69
But I'm gonna
read verse 6 and 7.
00:41:36.73\00:41:38.39
"If we say that we
have fellowship with Him, "
00:41:38.43\00:41:40.30
that is God.
00:41:40.36\00:41:41.66
"And walk in darkness,
00:41:41.70\00:41:43.03
we lie and do not
practice the truth.
00:41:43.06\00:41:44.67
But if we walk in the
light, as He is in the light,
00:41:44.70\00:41:47.47
we have
fellowship with one another
00:41:47.50\00:41:49.64
and the blood of Jesus Christ
00:41:49.67\00:41:51.01
His Son cleanses
us from all sin."
00:41:51.04\00:41:53.51
Let us all walk in the light.
00:41:53.54\00:41:55.14
Amen. Amen. Nice answer.
00:41:55.18\00:41:57.28
Praise the Lord.
00:41:57.31\00:41:58.65
So this is the time
00:41:58.68\00:42:00.08
where we have
some extra questions
00:42:00.12\00:42:01.45
and we're gonna kind
of just throw it out there
00:42:01.48\00:42:03.12
and have a free for all
00:42:03.15\00:42:04.49
where everyone
kinda has an opportunity
00:42:04.52\00:42:06.02
to respond to it.
00:42:06.05\00:42:07.66
This question, I
think is a great question.
00:42:07.69\00:42:10.13
It comes from, this
is based on 1 John 5:16.
00:42:10.16\00:42:13.50
I'm gonna read 1 John
5:16 and then ask the question.
00:42:13.53\00:42:16.53
So 1 John 5:16 says,
00:42:16.56\00:42:19.17
"If anyone sees his
brother sinning a sin,
00:42:19.20\00:42:21.67
which does not lead to death,
00:42:21.70\00:42:23.51
he will ask and
he will give him life
00:42:23.57\00:42:26.41
for those who commit
sin, not leading to death.
00:42:26.44\00:42:29.74
There is sin leading to death.
00:42:29.78\00:42:32.51
I do not say that he
should pray about that."
00:42:32.55\00:42:35.32
So the question is,
00:42:35.35\00:42:37.49
what is the difference between
sin that doesn't lead to death
00:42:37.55\00:42:41.22
and one that does?
00:42:41.26\00:42:43.02
Okay, well, let
me jump at that first
00:42:43.06\00:42:44.93
because I enjoy that.
00:42:44.96\00:42:46.46
First of all, the one
thing we have to keep in mind,
00:42:46.49\00:42:48.23
there categorically
00:42:48.26\00:42:49.60
scripturally there is no
sin that cannot result in death.
00:42:49.63\00:42:54.20
So you might ask the question,
why would John say that.
00:42:54.24\00:42:57.77
John the Apostle was describing
a broader analogous situation.
00:42:57.81\00:43:04.15
He was addressing
sin on a broad scale.
00:43:04.18\00:43:06.55
And what he was saying is,
00:43:06.58\00:43:08.12
there is iniquity
and there is stumbling.
00:43:08.15\00:43:13.15
The two are quite
disparagingly different.
00:43:13.19\00:43:15.99
A person and Pastor
Dinzey just read this
00:43:16.02\00:43:18.73
practice, the word practice.
00:43:18.76\00:43:21.46
He who practices sin
that results in iniquity.
00:43:21.50\00:43:25.07
That's the sin that
you don't wanna give up.
00:43:25.10\00:43:28.04
The writer of Hebrews says,
00:43:28.07\00:43:29.40
"Let us lay aside every weight
00:43:29.44\00:43:30.77
and the sin which
so easily besets us,
00:43:30.81\00:43:33.17
that's iniquity.
00:43:33.21\00:43:34.54
But if you
stumble, which has happened,
00:43:34.58\00:43:36.81
and this is the reason
why we have 1 John 2:1,
00:43:36.85\00:43:39.88
listen to this,
00:43:39.91\00:43:41.25
"My little children,
these things I write to you
00:43:41.28\00:43:43.99
that you may not sin.
00:43:44.05\00:43:46.29
And if anyone sins,
00:43:46.32\00:43:48.76
we have an
advocate with the Father,
00:43:48.79\00:43:51.03
Jesus Christ, the righteous."
00:43:51.06\00:43:52.59
Jill pointed out grace.
00:43:52.63\00:43:55.33
Yes, we can
overcome sin in this life,
00:43:55.36\00:43:57.63
but don't ever get to the place
where you say you're perfect.
00:43:57.67\00:44:00.04
Let me tell you why,
00:44:00.07\00:44:01.47
because we are
growing in grace every day.
00:44:01.50\00:44:03.81
As we are in the
sanctification process,
00:44:03.84\00:44:06.04
we are going to
need the grace of Christ
00:44:06.07\00:44:07.68
until we are saved
from the presence of sin,
00:44:07.71\00:44:10.65
this sinful flesh.
00:44:10.68\00:44:12.31
So what does he mean by the
sin that does not lead to death?
00:44:12.35\00:44:14.78
Here's the short answer.
00:44:14.82\00:44:16.15
The sin that
does not lead to death
00:44:16.18\00:44:19.12
is the sin you confess.
00:44:19.15\00:44:20.86
That's right.
00:44:20.89\00:44:22.22
The sin that leads to death
is a sin you don't confess.
00:44:22.26\00:44:25.59
It's that simple. Amen. Nice.
00:44:25.63\00:44:27.60
So if you see a brother
and say, that's why it says,
00:44:27.66\00:44:29.46
if you see a
brother and he trespass,
00:44:29.50\00:44:30.93
you go to that one.
00:44:30.97\00:44:32.30
And if they listen to
you, you have saved him from,
00:44:32.33\00:44:34.37
you know, love
covers a multitude of sins.
00:44:34.40\00:44:37.17
But if he doesn't
respond to the appeal,
00:44:37.21\00:44:40.14
then he's on his
way to eternal loss.
00:44:40.18\00:44:43.71
The nutshell is
confess it. Amen.
00:44:43.75\00:44:45.71
I would like to
add Romans 6:23 says,
00:44:45.75\00:44:48.55
"For the wages of sin is death."
00:44:48.58\00:44:50.85
So every sin leads to
death as Pastor Lomacang said.
00:44:50.89\00:44:55.12
But there is this sin
against the Holy Spirit
00:44:55.16\00:44:57.19
of which we need
to be careful with
00:44:57.23\00:44:59.33
which is a persistent resistance
00:44:59.36\00:45:01.83
and continued
resistance of the Holy Spirit.
00:45:01.86\00:45:04.73
And if you do this,
you cannot be saved.
00:45:04.77\00:45:07.84
Amen. Amen.
00:45:07.87\00:45:09.20
That's what I was thinking
too, with Matthew 12:31.
00:45:09.24\00:45:12.24
"I say to you,
00:45:12.27\00:45:13.61
every sin and
blasphemy will be forgiven men,
00:45:13.68\00:45:16.08
but the blasphemy
against the spirit
00:45:16.11\00:45:18.41
will not be forgiven men."
00:45:18.45\00:45:20.12
But if you are concerned,
maybe I've committed that sin.
00:45:20.15\00:45:24.52
Know, that if you have
that fear in your heart,
00:45:24.55\00:45:26.86
if you have that
wondering in your heart,
00:45:26.89\00:45:28.66
that means the Holy Spirit
is still working on your heart
00:45:28.69\00:45:31.49
and still
convicting your spirit.
00:45:31.53\00:45:33.19
So praise the Lord for that.
00:45:33.23\00:45:34.73
Amen. Praise the Lord.
00:45:34.73\00:45:36.73
All right.
Here's a good one. Okay.
00:45:36.77\00:45:38.50
What are approved
and acceptable activities
00:45:38.53\00:45:41.64
on Sabbath?
00:45:41.67\00:45:43.00
Okay, well,
let's go to Isaiah 58.
00:45:43.04\00:45:45.21
Oh, that's good.
00:45:45.24\00:45:46.57
Isaiah 58.
00:45:46.64\00:45:47.98
I've often said I've
kind of not modified,
00:45:48.01\00:45:51.71
but I would say given
00:45:51.75\00:45:53.08
the amplified version of
the Bible, in the sense of
00:45:53.11\00:45:56.08
remember the
Sabbath day to keep it holy.
00:45:56.12\00:45:58.39
I always say, remember
the Sabbath day to be involved
00:45:58.42\00:46:00.52
in sanctified activity.
00:46:00.59\00:46:02.32
And the word Sabbath day,
because the Lord sanctified.
00:46:02.36\00:46:05.13
Now let's ask,
what does that mean?
00:46:05.16\00:46:07.40
And we're going
to Isaiah 58, right?
00:46:07.46\00:46:09.33
Let me turn there
while I'm talking to you.
00:46:09.36\00:46:11.93
What that means is,
00:46:11.97\00:46:13.34
is there anything wrong
with reading a newspaper?
00:46:13.37\00:46:14.70
No.
00:46:14.74\00:46:16.07
Watching the news? No.
00:46:16.10\00:46:17.44
Playing baseball? No.
00:46:17.47\00:46:18.81
Anything wrong
with going to the store
00:46:18.84\00:46:20.48
and doing redundant
or repetitious activities
00:46:20.51\00:46:23.35
that we partake of?
00:46:23.38\00:46:24.71
But here's what
the Lord is saying.
00:46:24.75\00:46:26.08
There's nothing
that the Lord did,
00:46:26.11\00:46:27.62
there was nothing
wrong with anything He did,
00:46:27.65\00:46:30.09
but He got to the
last day of the week
00:46:30.12\00:46:32.55
and He rested
from all His labors.
00:46:32.59\00:46:36.22
Now, what does that simply mean?
00:46:36.26\00:46:38.26
What He did?
00:46:38.29\00:46:39.63
He set an
example for us to follow
00:46:39.66\00:46:41.26
when you lay aside.
00:46:41.30\00:46:42.63
And the best
example I can give you is
00:46:42.66\00:46:44.23
when my, when our
anniversary comes,
00:46:44.27\00:46:46.10
my wife and I, Jill, you know,
00:46:46.13\00:46:47.50
my wife and I, we
treasure our anniversary.
00:46:47.54\00:46:49.60
I always lamented
00:46:49.64\00:46:50.97
when the school graduation
came on our anniversary
00:46:51.01\00:46:54.31
and one year I
said to the principal,
00:46:54.34\00:46:55.98
"If it happens
on our anniversary,
00:46:56.01\00:46:57.41
we're not gonna be there."
00:46:57.45\00:46:58.95
We celebrate
love. Here's the point.
00:46:58.98\00:47:00.85
The Lord wants you
to lay aside everything
00:47:00.88\00:47:03.72
that hinders your
relationship with Him.
00:47:03.75\00:47:09.12
Anything that should not be done
00:47:09.16\00:47:12.06
on the Sabbath,
00:47:12.09\00:47:13.43
don't mow your
lawn on the Sabbath.
00:47:13.46\00:47:14.76
That's not an emergency,
but if somebody is ill,
00:47:14.83\00:47:17.70
if somebody is sick,
00:47:17.73\00:47:19.20
if somebody needs your help,
00:47:19.23\00:47:20.97
follow the example of Jesus.
00:47:21.00\00:47:22.97
It is lawful to do
good, relieve the suffering,
00:47:23.00\00:47:25.67
help the
oppressed, feed the hungry,
00:47:25.71\00:47:27.98
clothe the naked.
00:47:28.01\00:47:29.41
Anything that can be
done on any other day,
00:47:29.44\00:47:32.21
leave it for that day
00:47:32.25\00:47:33.62
and follow the
examples of Jesus.
00:47:33.65\00:47:35.18
And you know, panel, I believe
00:47:35.22\00:47:36.62
if we answered this question
00:47:36.69\00:47:38.02
by following the
examples of Jesus,
00:47:38.05\00:47:39.82
we'll never run out of answers
00:47:39.85\00:47:41.49
of good things to
do on the Sabbath.
00:47:41.52\00:47:42.99
Amen.
00:47:43.02\00:47:44.36
I think the
Sabbath is a delight.
00:47:44.39\00:47:45.96
And so many times
00:47:45.99\00:47:47.30
we make the Sabbath, a drudgery.
00:47:47.40\00:47:48.70
You were in Isaiah 50,
Pastor. Yeah, read that for us.
00:47:48.73\00:47:50.17
I wanna read one
verse here in verse 13.
00:47:50.23\00:47:52.07
It says,
00:47:52.10\00:47:53.44
"If you turn away
your foot from the Sabbath,
00:47:53.50\00:47:54.84
from doing your
pleasure on My holy day."
00:47:54.87\00:47:56.67
Well, you could
read that and think,
00:47:56.71\00:47:58.04
"Oh, I can't do any
pleasure on the Sabbath."
00:47:58.07\00:48:00.24
But it means business pleasure.
00:48:00.31\00:48:02.81
So if you understand that,
that means we set aside work.
00:48:02.84\00:48:06.68
We set aside,
00:48:06.75\00:48:08.08
we go to work so
many days a week,
00:48:08.12\00:48:09.52
we set that aside.
00:48:09.55\00:48:10.92
It doesn't mean the
Sabbath is not a delight.
00:48:10.95\00:48:12.52
It is a joy to
spend time with Jesus.
00:48:12.55\00:48:18.29
Yes. I agree with all these.
00:48:18.33\00:48:19.86
And I don't know if you know,
you mentioned one of the things
00:48:19.89\00:48:23.70
that would not
be good is for you
00:48:23.77\00:48:25.57
to go out into
the shopping malls
00:48:25.60\00:48:27.04
and the shopping centers
00:48:27.07\00:48:28.77
and start doing
business activities.
00:48:28.80\00:48:31.34
That's right.
00:48:31.37\00:48:32.71
Yes, because it's supposed
to be a Sabbath of the Lord
00:48:32.74\00:48:37.25
and this would be,
00:48:37.28\00:48:38.61
you're not in the context
of being in line with the Lord.
00:48:38.65\00:48:42.02
And there are
scriptures that talk about this.
00:48:42.05\00:48:44.52
Yeah. Go ahead.
00:48:44.55\00:48:45.89
Yeah. And that is Exodus 20.
00:48:45.92\00:48:47.26
Yes.
00:48:47.29\00:48:48.62
You nor your son,
nor your daughter,
00:48:48.66\00:48:50.23
nor your manservant,
nor your maid servant.
00:48:50.26\00:48:51.99
We've had people
that visited with us
00:48:52.03\00:48:54.10
and we let them
know, we honor the Sabbath.
00:48:54.10\00:48:56.13
Now this is amazing.
00:48:56.16\00:48:57.53
I wanna go back and
add something there.
00:48:57.57\00:48:58.90
And the Sabbath is
not a Jewish institution.
00:48:58.93\00:49:00.34
There were no Jews around
00:49:00.37\00:49:01.70
when Jesus blessed
the seventh day, right?
00:49:01.74\00:49:03.64
If the Sabbath
is just for the Jews
00:49:03.67\00:49:05.04
and so all the
other nine commandments,
00:49:05.07\00:49:07.04
but here's the thing.
00:49:07.11\00:49:08.48
Even your words, be
careful with your words,
00:49:08.51\00:49:10.81
because in this charged,
politically charged generation,
00:49:10.88\00:49:14.45
I've had many examples as
a pastor to say to people,
00:49:14.48\00:49:17.42
please do not bring
politics in on the Sabbath.
00:49:17.45\00:49:19.89
Yeah. Watch your words.
00:49:19.92\00:49:21.36
That's right.
00:49:21.39\00:49:22.72
Don't say, don't talk
about the new car you bought,
00:49:22.76\00:49:24.09
the house you're buying.
00:49:24.16\00:49:25.49
Let this be a time
where your activities,
00:49:25.53\00:49:27.30
as well as your
words glorify God.
00:49:27.36\00:49:30.57
Amen.
00:49:30.60\00:49:31.93
I wanna read that
scripture from Nehemiah 10:31,
00:49:31.97\00:49:34.14
which talks about what I said.
00:49:34.17\00:49:35.50
If the peoples of
the land brought wares
00:49:35.54\00:49:37.51
or any grain to
sell on the Sabbath day,
00:49:37.54\00:49:39.74
we should not buy it from them
00:49:39.77\00:49:41.41
on the Sabbath or on a holy day.
00:49:41.44\00:49:43.75
And we should forego
the seventh year to produce
00:49:43.78\00:49:46.11
an exacting of
every debt source.
00:49:46.15\00:49:48.95
It's in the scripture.
So it's not an activity.
00:49:48.98\00:49:52.12
I think of also in
Nehemiah Chapter 13,
00:49:52.15\00:49:54.16
that brother was so
serious about keeping Sabbath.
00:49:54.19\00:49:56.42
He told them, he said,
00:49:56.46\00:49:58.03
if I catch you out
there on the Sabbath,
00:49:58.06\00:49:59.76
doing your business,
I'm gonna put hands on you.
00:49:59.79\00:50:01.96
And so that is a
serious situation
00:50:02.00\00:50:03.47
to the Lord,
00:50:03.53\00:50:04.87
but we should, as Jill
said, not make it a drudgerous,
00:50:04.90\00:50:07.20
you know, a horrible experience.
00:50:07.24\00:50:09.44
It's a delight.
Amen. It's a delight. Amen.
00:50:09.47\00:50:11.17
We have just a little
over a minute and a half.
00:50:11.21\00:50:13.34
I just want to ask one
more last question here,
00:50:13.38\00:50:15.01
before we go to a quick break
00:50:15.04\00:50:16.38
and then we're
going to come back.
00:50:16.41\00:50:17.75
So we're in our
final minutes here.
00:50:17.78\00:50:19.11
But it says, how do we know,
00:50:19.15\00:50:20.48
this comes from
Sharmilia by the way.
00:50:20.52\00:50:22.75
"How do we know
it's God speaking to us
00:50:22.78\00:50:25.05
and not our subconscious mind?"
00:50:25.09\00:50:28.49
Anytime you hear anything,
measure it against God's Word.
00:50:28.52\00:50:32.73
That's right,
Isiah 8:20. That's right.
00:50:32.76\00:50:34.76
To the law and to the testimony
they speak not according is
00:50:34.83\00:50:36.80
because there is
no light in them.
00:50:36.83\00:50:38.47
Every thought you get
measured against God's Word,
00:50:38.50\00:50:41.30
because sometimes
00:50:41.34\00:50:42.67
through the multitude
of dealings during the day,
00:50:42.70\00:50:44.34
thoughts come to your mind
00:50:44.37\00:50:45.71
and you dream
about it and you think
00:50:45.74\00:50:47.11
"God just told me."
00:50:47.14\00:50:48.48
Be careful when
people say, "God told me,"
00:50:48.51\00:50:50.58
but the Word of God
doesn't match up with it.
00:50:50.61\00:50:52.31
That's right.
00:50:52.35\00:50:53.68
That's exactly
where I was going.
00:50:53.75\00:50:55.08
It needs to line up
with the Word of God.
00:50:55.12\00:50:56.92
To the law and to the testimony,
00:50:56.95\00:50:58.29
if they speak not
according to this word,
00:50:58.32\00:50:59.65
there is no light in them.
00:50:59.69\00:51:01.09
And that includes the thoughts
that we have in our mind.
00:51:01.12\00:51:03.73
That's right. Amen.
00:51:03.76\00:51:05.09
Just briefly, I
remember talking to somebody
00:51:05.13\00:51:06.93
that called here at
3ABN, and he's saying,
00:51:07.00\00:51:09.00
"Well, we don't have
to keep the commandments."
00:51:09.03\00:51:10.37
And he started, "We don't
have to keep the commandments."
00:51:10.43\00:51:12.07
And I mentioned
scriptures to him
00:51:12.10\00:51:14.20
that clearly show that.
00:51:14.24\00:51:15.94
And he said,
00:51:15.97\00:51:17.31
"Well, I know
what the Bible says,
00:51:17.37\00:51:18.71
but the Holy Spirit told me."
00:51:18.74\00:51:20.08
And I said,
00:51:20.14\00:51:21.48
"Wait a minute.
00:51:21.51\00:51:22.84
The Holy Spirit is
not going to talk to you
00:51:22.88\00:51:24.21
in contradiction to
what the Bible says."
00:51:24.25\00:51:26.35
So if it's in the scriptures,
00:51:26.38\00:51:28.22
we should do what
the scripture is saying.
00:51:28.25\00:51:30.25
That's right. Amen.
00:51:30.29\00:51:31.62
And that's what this
program is all about.
00:51:31.65\00:51:33.05
It's Bible Q and A.
00:51:33.09\00:51:34.42
We're going to the
Bible for our answers.
00:51:34.46\00:51:36.69
And you may be tuning in new,
00:51:36.73\00:51:38.23
may not have had a
chance to write down
00:51:38.26\00:51:40.06
that email
address or that number
00:51:40.10\00:51:42.03
that you can
text in your question.
00:51:42.06\00:51:44.00
We wanna go to a roll right now
00:51:44.03\00:51:45.37
where you can
actually do that right now.
00:51:45.40\00:51:47.90
See you in just a moment.
00:51:47.94\00:51:49.37

Each Monday, we'll
bring you a fresh program,
00:51:53.74\00:51:56.28
answering the Bible
questions you send us.
00:51:56.31\00:51:58.65
And we'll use God's Holy Word
to shed light on those texts
00:51:58.68\00:52:01.72
that seem
difficult to understand.
00:52:01.75\00:52:04.09
If you would like
