00:01 These Bible Q&A programs always go by in a hurry.
00:03 Closing thoughts, 00:04 we'd like to do at the end here. 00:06 Pastor James, we'll start with you. 00:07 Well, I like to encourage people 00:08 that the Bible is like real estate, 00:11 location, location, location. 00:13 The immediate context, the chapter context, 00:17 and the overall biblical context... 00:19 When you have questions about the Bible, 00:21 look at those three areas. 00:23 And you're going to find many times 00:24 the answers in the immediate context, 00:26 but sometimes you have to go further than that, 00:27 and even to throughout the whole Bible 00:29 to really get a good picture 00:31 of what the answer's to your question. 00:32 I love that like real estate location, location, location. 00:35 I love that. 00:36 I'll remember that. 00:37 Yeah, me too. Pastor Ryan. 00:39 You know, I just want to address Marguerite again 00:40 from Transylvania. 00:41 Question about, you know, marrying. 00:43 You said you were 28 years old, 00:45 but, you know, I can tell that you're a godly woman, 00:47 godly young woman. 00:48 I just want to say don't settle for just anything, 00:50 be patient, wait on the Lord. 00:51 I know you said, "I'm 28! I want a husband. 00:53 But some people are saying, don't marry, 00:55 you know, maybe God wants you to be single." 00:57 You know, don't listen to people. 00:58 Listen to God's Word. 01:00 And at the end of the day, 01:01 if you don't settle and you just be patient, 01:02 the Lord will send you the right man, 01:04 and it'll be a godly man. 01:05 Don't make the mistakes that the sons of God 01:07 made with the daughters of man, 01:09 don't go out into the world. 01:10 Be patient, wait on the Lord. 01:11 And in His perfect timing, He will send the right person. 01:13 Amen. 01:14 I want to address that question too, actually 01:16 because I was thinking about that, 01:17 you know, the Word of God says, 01:19 to delight yourself in the Lord, 01:20 and He'll give you the desires of your heart. 01:22 There's many times in my life where I have said, 01:25 "Well, God, but you're not giving me the desire 01:27 that I asked for, 01:28 and what am I supposed to do with that?" 01:30 We come before God and we say, "God, 01:33 would you change my desire? 01:34 Would you give me what you want for me?" 01:37 And come to Him with an open heart 01:39 and seek to surrender 01:40 and He will fulfill that in your life. 01:42 Amen. Amen. 01:44 Thank you, Pastor James, and thank you, Pastor Ryan. 01:46 Thank you, Jill, for joining us today, 01:47 and thank you as our family for joining us. 01:49 I always like to read this scripture. 01:51 2 Timothy 2:15, 01:52 "Study to show thyself approved unto God, 01:54 a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, 01:57 rightly dividing the word of truth." 01:58 We'll see you next time. 02:00 God bless you. 02:01 Yay! |
