00:01 Well, time really flew by guys
00:02 and I just want to open the floor 00:04 for some final thoughts. 00:06 Pastor Rafferty? 00:07 Well, I really have been blessed 00:10 by the questions that have come in this time. 00:11 I know a lot of them have been deep questions. 00:14 I was just thinking about the one with Pharaoh 00:16 and how God's foreknowledge, you know, works. 00:21 And many times we see things in the Bible and we think, 00:23 "Oh, I don't understand why God would do that." 00:26 But God knows a lot more about the situation than we know. 00:28 And so the main thing for me is, 2 Peter 3:9, 00:32 you know, "God is longsuffering toward us, 00:34 not wanting that any would perish 00:35 but that all will come to repentance." 00:36 God is going to do everything He can 00:38 to save every individual that's possible. 00:40 Amen. Amen. 00:42 You know, Revelation 21:5 is one of my favorite verses. 00:45 It gives me great hope. 00:46 It helps me to look forward to the beautiful things 00:49 that Christ has prepared for us. 00:50 And He says here, it says, 00:51 "Then He who sat on the throne said, 00:53 'Behold, I make all things new.'" 00:56 And we serve a God that's all about 00:59 making our lives the best that it can possibly be. 01:01 He's going to make all things new. 01:02 He has made all things new. 01:04 So look to Jesus, the author and finisher of your faith. 01:07 Amen. Amen. 01:09 Concerning wine, I like to quote somebody 01:11 that did a little more digging in this. 01:13 He says, "It must be observed," notes Leon C. Field, 01:17 "that the adjective used to describe 01:20 the wine made by Christ is not agathos, 01:23 good, simply, but kalos, 01:25 that which is morally excellent or befitting." 01:30 So Christ made the pure, fresh grape juice. 01:33 Amen. Thank you, Pastor Dinzey. 01:35 Thank you, Pastor Day. 01:37 Thank you, Pastor Rafferty, for the insight 01:39 that you've provided from the Word of God today 01:41 in response to these questions. 01:43 And I just want to encourage you to pray, 01:47 to study God's Word, 01:48 to apply what you're learning 01:51 and watch the growth that takes place in your life. 01:54 Thank you for tuning in to Today Bible Q and A. 01:57 Until next time, may God richly bless you. |
