Thank you so 00:02:13.36\00:02:16.97 much for being here, Dana. 00:02:16.97\00:02:18.63 >> Yes, the second annual. It's a good name. And, you 00:02:18.63\00:02:22.17 know, just studying the Bible. This morning, I had a bunch of 00:02:22.17\00:02:24.91 questions and they invite me back to say to the one who has 00:02:24.91\00:02:28.64 the answers. There's lots of questions. And I love studying 00:02:28.64\00:02:31.51 these. 00:02:31.51\00:02:32.81 >> A man I love this program because we get to dive deep 00:02:32.81\00:02:35.18 into the word of God. That's it. And there's so much to 00:02:35.18\00:02:37.92 learn. The more I study it seems like the more I don't 00:02:37.92\00:02:40.19 know. The more there is to learn Pastor John Lowe, McCain 00:02:40.19\00:02:43.46 at the end of the table. So glad you're here, Pastor 00:02:43.46\00:02:45.96 John. 00:02:45.96\00:02:47.23 >> You know, the Bible reminds us that we are not able to 00:02:47.23\00:02:50.43 comprehend the breath and depth and height and length of cosmic 00:02:50.43\00:02:54.64 knowledge. It always dwarfs us when we walk into this room and 00:02:54.64\00:02:59.41 recognize there are no walls there, no floors, there's no 00:02:59.41\00:03:02.04 ceiling. That's what the study, because where does it reminds 00:03:02.04\00:03:05.21 us that he soften? We're not like I'm always learning, 00:03:05.21\00:03:09.38 as Daniel said, when we step into that room of unlimited 00:03:09.38\00:03:13.49 divine knowledge, a man. 00:03:13.49\00:03:15.59 >> So invite you to learn along with us today. We're going to 00:03:15.59\00:03:19.69 go to the Lord in prayer before we started first question. 00:03:19.69\00:03:22.00 But before what we do that we want to give you the way that 00:03:22.00\00:03:24.93 you can send in your questions.

Before we go 00:04:10.11\00:04:14.12 any further, we're go to the Lord in prayer. And Daniel, 00:04:14.12\00:04:16.45 would you pray for us? 00:04:16.45\00:04:18.29 >> Dear Heavenly Father, Lord, I thank you that you lead us 00:04:18.29\00:04:21.69 through the word of God step-by-step page by page verse 00:04:21.69\00:04:26.33 by verse and word by word. You are there all the way 00:04:26.33\00:04:31.03 Lourdes we study and listen and pray and think today guide us 00:04:31.03\00:04:35.57 as we want to understand your word because we want a clearer 00:04:35.57\00:04:38.27 picture of Jesus, his name. We pray, amen. 00:04:38.27\00:04:42.78 >> Now we're going to get into the word of God. And for going 00:04:42.78\00:04:46.01 to the pastor John McCain first and this one, I'm not sure who 00:04:46.01\00:04:49.45 it comes from its as will. We all have to stand before God 00:04:49.45\00:04:53.86 and given the count for our sins, whether it be good or 00:04:53.86\00:04:57.93 bad. 00:04:57.93\00:04:58.93 >> OK, so you might be startled to hear me say no. 00:04:58.93\00:05:03.00 And here's the reason why the Swede's second Corinthians 5 00:05:03.00\00:05:06.17 and verse 10 and you might do what the Bible says. He'll 00:05:06.17\00:05:09.10 listen to this carefully for. We must all appear before the 00:05:09.10\00:05:13.11 judgment seat of Christ. But each one may receive the 00:05:13.11\00:05:16.31 things done in the body. According to what he has done, 00:05:16.31\00:05:19.55 whether good or bad thing unfold, it want to give our 00:05:19.55\00:05:22.72 lives to Christ. He does not just become Arwa Damon. He 00:05:22.72\00:05:25.89 becomes advocate and first onto first won my little children. 00:05:25.89\00:05:29.86 These things are right to you so that you may not send. 00:05:29.86\00:05:33.60 And if anyone since we have an advocate with the father, 00:05:33.60\00:05:36.63 Jesus Christ, the right is. So the question is what is an 00:05:36.63\00:05:39.17 advocate do? 00:05:39.17\00:05:40.40 He was 9 for 24 for Christ, has not entered the Holy Place he's 00:05:40.40\00:05:45.51 made with hands, which are copies of the true, but into 00:05:45.51\00:05:48.98 heaven itself. Listen carefully. Now, 2 up here in 00:05:48.98\00:05:53.68 the presence of God for us. And so he appears for us. 00:05:53.68\00:05:58.85 He's alright. He's if you send on your advocate and what is 00:05:58.85\00:06:02.49 the Advocate do he appears for us per people say what I have 00:06:02.49\00:06:05.86 to go to court. My lawyer is going to represent me. That's 00:06:05.86\00:06:09.16 what Jesus does in the judgment. He represents us. 00:06:09.16\00:06:11.73 But here's the other question. 00:06:11.73\00:06:13.97 All his yo point, only those whose sins are not a tone for 00:06:13.97\00:06:18.27 we'll have to give an account for those. The righteous will 00:06:18.27\00:06:22.51 not have to appear for the following reason there since 00:06:22.51\00:06:26.48 have been a tone for the Apostle Paul, the Apostle Peter 00:06:26.48\00:06:30.59 preaching on the day of Penny Cause a records. These words in 00:06:30.59\00:06:33.89 the book of acts back to 19 00:06:33.89\00:06:37.76 repent, therefore and be converted that your sins may be 00:06:37.76\00:06:41.63 a lot. A lot it out, right? So that time's of refreshing 00:06:41.63\00:06:45.20 may come from the president of the Lord. 00:06:45.20\00:06:47.67 How can you why would you be called to give an account of 00:06:47.67\00:06:50.51 something that just blot it out? A new record has been 00:06:50.51\00:06:53.04 expunged 00:06:53.04\00:06:54.58 because our advocate appearing before the father for us. 00:06:54.58\00:06:57.75 It's good, Tony, for us. The lamb of God that taketh 00:06:57.75\00:07:00.42 away the sins of the world. He took away his advocate. 00:07:00.42\00:07:04.29 So why do we have to appear when our sends a blot out, 00:07:04.29\00:07:07.86 somebody may say your honor, can you show me? The record of 00:07:07.86\00:07:10.63 Daniel parents sent? It's a L a 00:07:10.63\00:07:14.00 what? Sorry. You're on a A 00:07:14.00\00:07:16.80 we may be a falsely accused him because his record is clear. 00:07:16.80\00:07:20.20 Pass what Lourdes Blots out our sins. And he confirms that Mike 00:07:20.20\00:07:24.57 and 7 0st 19, 00:07:24.57\00:07:26.64 he will again have compassion on us 00:07:26.64\00:07:29.64 and will subdue our iniquities. 00:07:29.64\00:07:32.05 You'll cast all our sins into the depths of the sea and put 00:07:32.05\00:07:36.25 out and no fishing signs have to say that. Not only that he 00:07:36.25\00:07:40.26 was 8 and verse 12 for I will have mercy to their high will 00:07:40.26\00:07:45.26 be merciful to the unrighteous and their sins and their 00:07:45.26\00:07:48.70 lawless deeds. I will remember no more. So 00:07:48.70\00:07:54.10 I don't remember y Daniels in court. I forgot was hit by his 00:07:54.10\00:07:57.91 here that I don't see anything on the record. What? Because of 00:07:57.91\00:08:01.34 toe. In a sense of that you dismissed, sir. We can accuse 00:08:01.34\00:08:04.68 you of anything. That's why the beautiful story of Joshua being 00:08:04.68\00:08:07.55 accused by Satan. The lawyer said you just upset because 00:08:07.55\00:08:10.89 he's a brand plucked from the fire and that's the beauty of 00:08:10.89\00:08:13.72 all of us. Proverbs. 28 and verse 13 says 00:08:13.72\00:08:18.06 he who covers his sends will not prosper, but whoever 00:08:18.06\00:08:21.03 confesses in for 6 then will have mercy. So that's what 00:08:21.03\00:08:24.90 happened. When you go to the court and you are innocent, 00:08:24.90\00:08:27.64 you asked for justice when you're guilty. You asked for 00:08:27.64\00:08:30.84 mercy. We have mercy because our father first, John, 4 for 00:08:30.84\00:08:34.38 7. So what happens when we stand in that day of judgment? 00:08:34.38\00:08:37.51 Love has been perfected among us in this that we may have 00:08:37.51\00:08:40.78 boldness in the day of judgment because as he is, so are we in 00:08:40.78\00:08:45.95 this world? We have boldness because Jesus Christ, our 00:08:45.95\00:08:49.66 advocate, 00:08:49.66\00:08:51.16 our lamb. Our judge has blotted out our sins. The record is 00:08:51.16\00:08:55.96 clear that thrown into the depths of the sea. We have no 00:08:55.96\00:08:59.40 mercy and we could stand before the father without any fear of 00:08:59.40\00:09:03.07 being condemned. 00:09:03.07\00:09:04.67 >> Men, thank you so much faster. Dawn. I wasn't sure 00:09:04.67\00:09:07.44 where you're going with the first know, but I love that 00:09:07.44\00:09:10.81 only the we could have to stand in judgment. But the righteous 00:09:10.81\00:09:13.38 are clear. That's the great White throne. Judgment 00:09:13.38\00:09:15.22 revelation 20. I love the books are open to have to give an 00:09:15.22\00:09:18.42 account this powerful. Let's go to Daniel pairing next. This is 00:09:18.42\00:09:21.76 a text that came in when Malakai for speak said Elijah, 00:09:21.76\00:09:26.33 the prophet must first come before that great and dreadful 00:09:26.33\00:09:29.13 day. The Lord. Can you explain exactly what that means? 00:09:29.13\00:09:33.74 >> Okay. The end of the malakai is also the end of the profits 00:09:33.74\00:09:38.47 than every team and the end of the profits is looking forward 00:09:38.47\00:09:42.51 than to a new profit to another profit. So here's what we read 00:09:42.51\00:09:45.85 at the end of allocate first 5, 6, a chapter for behold. 00:09:45.85\00:09:49.65 I will send shoe Elijah the prophet before the coming of 00:09:49.65\00:09:52.85 the great and tread full day of the Lord. He will turn the 00:09:52.85\00:09:56.19 hearts of the fathers to the children and the hearts of the 00:09:56.19\00:09:58.79 children to their fathers. Lest I calm and strike the 00:09:58.79\00:10:01.70 earth with a curse. So what's the day of the Lord and a real 00:10:01.70\00:10:05.83 Elijah really return in person? 00:10:05.83\00:10:08.20 The day of salvation is the time we have right now. This is 00:10:08.20\00:10:11.47 when the time is open for decision-making, for for God. 00:10:11.47\00:10:15.21 But the day of the Lord is when God steps in and intervenes 00:10:15.21\00:10:19.51 nationally for Israel. This is what is Israel's apostasy was 00:10:19.51\00:10:22.82 over and it was to be dealt with by God, but Prophetically. 00:10:22.82\00:10:26.32 This looks forward to a final worldwide ultimate day of the 00:10:26.32\00:10:30.96 Lord when divinely got stepson intervenes with Sen. 00:10:30.96\00:10:35.16 But who is Elijah C******? Well, you like it could not be 00:10:35.16\00:10:37.77 right recognized by photos or physical descriptions. They 00:10:37.77\00:10:40.24 didn't have those things. If they're going to recognize 00:10:40.24\00:10:42.40 Elijah C******, it would be through his prophetic message 00:10:42.40\00:10:44.94 of restoration and renewal that was intended to prepare the way 00:10:44.94\00:10:49.04 for God's divine intervention. And in Jesus Day, we learn 00:10:49.04\00:10:52.35 this. And Luke, 9.18, to 20 people anticipated delight. 00:10:52.35\00:10:55.58 You really would come back in the flash. In-person people 00:10:55.58\00:10:58.42 thought maybe Jesus was Elijah preparing the way. But Jesus 00:10:58.42\00:11:02.72 tells us plainly that this refers to John. The Baptist 00:11:02.72\00:11:06.76 Ministry listened to Matthew 17, 10 to 13 Jesus disciples 00:11:06.76\00:11:10.70 asking about Elijah and Jesus. As I say to you, Elijah has 00:11:10.70\00:11:15.00 come already. They did not know him, but they did whatever they 00:11:15.00\00:11:18.74 wished. Likewise, the son of man is about to suffer at their 00:11:18.74\00:11:21.58 hands. Then the disciples understood that he spoke to 00:11:21.58\00:11:24.61 them of John the Baptist. And so the Angel Gabriel, 00:11:24.61\00:11:28.85 he also predicted this when he up when he came in, told 00:11:28.85\00:11:32.95 Zacharias about the birth of John the Baptist Zacharias was 00:11:32.95\00:11:36.19 John's father, Luke. One 17 says that he will also go 00:11:36.19\00:11:40.43 before him in the spirit and power of Elijah to turn the 00:11:40.43\00:11:44.93 hearts of the fathers to the children and the disobedient to 00:11:44.93\00:11:47.70 the wisdom of the just to make ready, people prepared for the 00:11:47.70\00:11:52.21 Lord. 00:11:52.21\00:11:53.31 So John, the Baptist, his ministry there was to prepare 00:11:53.31\00:11:56.28 people for the day of the Lord when God intervenes sending an 00:11:56.28\00:12:00.65 intervention to deal with Sen. But there still is coming a 00:12:00.65\00:12:04.82 final great day of the Lord when there will be an 00:12:04.82\00:12:07.99 intervention from God that his final and complete. And so we 00:12:07.99\00:12:12.26 should be looking for anticipating the message of 00:12:12.26\00:12:14.93 Elijah. And what is that? First Kings, 18 to 21 18 verse. 00:12:14.93\00:12:19.07 21 says how long will you falter between 2 opinions if 00:12:19.07\00:12:23.44 the Lord has got follow him? Today is decision-making time. 00:12:23.44\00:12:28.04 But the repairs, the altar focusing our attention on the 00:12:28.04\00:12:30.85 sacrifice in the sanctuary and he turns the hearts of parents 00:12:30.85\00:12:34.48 to children and children to parents. God wants families 00:12:34.48\00:12:37.72 united love to be healed, families to be ministry tools 00:12:37.72\00:12:41.19 pointing people to Jesus. 00:12:41.19\00:12:43.36 >> 2 men, thank you so much. Tanja. We talked about end-time 00:12:43.36\00:12:46.86 judgment and time they the Lord, we're going to stay kind 00:12:46.86\00:12:49.60 of end time. New world. We're going go to dad here. This 00:12:49.60\00:12:52.97 question came from David who sent in via text from Florida. 00:12:52.97\00:12:57.74 Well, the Heavenly Sanctuary remains standing after the new 00:12:57.74\00:13:01.98 world he's created. 00:13:01.98\00:13:04.21 >> While that's a great question there. David, thank 00:13:04.21\00:13:07.22 you so much. It helped me to dig in the Bible. Also to 00:13:07.22\00:13:11.35 figure this out 00:13:11.35\00:13:12.85 that sounds like you are right there. That's quote this from 00:13:12.85\00:13:15.96 the Bible here so that our viewers wouldn't 00:13:15.96\00:13:18.96 know what you're talking about. The revelation. 21. 22, 00:13:18.96\00:13:22.86 the Bible says and I saw no temple therein 00:13:22.86\00:13:26.77 for the Lord God almighty 00:13:26.77\00:13:29.57 and the lamb are the temple of it. 00:13:29.57\00:13:33.27 The word temple actually comes from a primary word, meaning to 00:13:33.27\00:13:36.31 do well. 00:13:36.31\00:13:38.71 Remember, God telling Moses, let them make me a sanctuary 00:13:38.71\00:13:42.82 that I may do well among them. You know, God loves to do well 00:13:42.82\00:13:46.65 with his people that when Adam first and that was the main 00:13:46.65\00:13:51.23 thing, you know, he was asking, Adam, where are you? Because 00:13:51.23\00:13:54.36 the every evening they would come and talk and commune with 00:13:54.36\00:13:56.73 each other, they would dwell together there hang out. 00:13:56.73\00:13:59.40 They could say Moses said, let them make me a sanctuary that I 00:13:59.40\00:14:02.34 may dwell among them. You know, possibly we've been thinking of 00:14:02.34\00:14:05.57 the sanctuary in 00:14:05.57\00:14:07.44 and a small too small of an idea where guards presence is 00:14:07.44\00:14:12.05 where he's dwelling. And that's the sanctuary God's presence in 00:14:12.05\00:14:15.72 some 102 verse 19. It says for he has looked down from the 00:14:15.72\00:14:20.39 height of his sanctuary 00:14:20.39\00:14:22.86 from heaven. Did the Lord behold the Earth that was on 00:14:22.86\00:14:26.19 the 102 verse 19 00:14:26.19\00:14:28.80 and then he burst chapter 9 and verse 11, it says, but Christ 00:14:28.80\00:14:33.70 being coming high priest of good things to come by a 00:14:33.70\00:14:37.71 greater and more perfect tabernacle not made with hands. 00:14:37.71\00:14:42.84 That is to say not of this building and then jumping down 00:14:42.84\00:14:46.88 diverse. 23. 00:14:46.88\00:14:49.08 He was 9. It was necessary that the patterns of things in the 00:14:49.08\00:14:53.36 heavens. So this earthly sanctuary down here was a 00:14:53.36\00:14:56.36 pattern of the heavenly 00:14:56.36\00:14:58.03 should be purified with these. But the heavenly things 00:14:58.03\00:15:01.46 themselves with better sacrifices than these 00:15:01.46\00:15:05.10 for Christ is not entered into the Holy places made with 00:15:05.10\00:15:07.77 hands, 00:15:07.77\00:15:09.04 which are the figures of the true but into heaven itself 00:15:09.04\00:15:12.77 now to appear in the presence of God for us. And you recall 00:15:12.77\00:15:16.88 Jesus, his death on the cross took care of all the sanctuary 00:15:16.88\00:15:21.22 type things that you are to killing the lamb and all of 00:15:21.22\00:15:24.25 that. So that was no more necessary for that to be. 00:15:24.25\00:15:28.36 So in that context, the sanctuary as we knew it on this 00:15:28.36\00:15:32.56 Earth and in heaven 00:15:32.56\00:15:34.76 not needed anymore. So thank you again for that question. 00:15:34.76\00:15:38.37 And thank you for. 00:15:38.37\00:15:40.84 >> Thank you so much. That a man. Let's go to something more 00:15:40.84\00:15:45.01 practical all now. I love the questions that you all said and 00:15:45.01\00:15:48.48 done. Some are deeply theological and some are just 00:15:48.48\00:15:51.48 practical. This is a practical question. We're going to Daniel 00:15:51.48\00:15:54.12 parent. This came in via Instagram. 00:15:54.12\00:15:57.42 What is the biblical view of drinking coffee now? This is a 00:15:57.42\00:16:03.06 loaded question. 00:16:03.06\00:16:04.63 >> All right. Well, in Genesis, Chapter 2 verse one, God 00:16:04.63\00:16:08.43 provided hydration source, which was a river of pure 00:16:08.43\00:16:13.47 water. Water is absolutely essential for every organ 00:16:13.47\00:16:17.64 system and function of the body. And there's no substitute 00:16:17.64\00:16:21.28 for water when it comes to hydration and cleansing and 00:16:21.28\00:16:24.35 detoxifying lubricating temperature, regulation, 00:16:24.35\00:16:27.52 tissue strengthening and much more. So the biblical view of 00:16:27.52\00:16:31.15 drinking coffee is 00:16:31.15\00:16:32.92 drink water 00:16:32.92\00:16:34.39 copies. Popular though 2.2 5 billion cups of coffee consumed 00:16:34.39\00:16:38.76 in the United States. A worldwide daily. 74 1% of 00:16:38.76\00:16:42.70 Americans drink coffee every day. It is the second most 00:16:42.70\00:16:45.70 traded commodity only after crude oil. He averaged American 00:16:45.70\00:16:49.80 drinks. 88.8 gallons of coffee a year which is more than the 00:16:49.80\00:16:53.88 average water drinking in the United States. It's just me 00:16:53.88\00:16:57.78 being with water, right? So what does coffee or any 00:16:57.78\00:17:01.45 caffeine caffeinated drink or food do when we consume it job 00:17:01.45\00:17:06.65 Chapter 10 verse 8 says your hands have made in fashion to 00:17:06.65\00:17:10.63 me and intricate unity. In other words, whatever I can sue 00:17:10.63\00:17:16.40 affects all of may physically and spiritually. So from the 00:17:16.40\00:17:20.47 intestines, capping enters the bloodstream, crosses the blood 00:17:20.47\00:17:23.67 brain barrier where it blocks the adenosine a one receptor 00:17:23.67\00:17:28.28 Ys, which Ali give us that tired feeling when we need to 00:17:28.28\00:17:32.38 rest. So that caffeine blocks, those receptors hijacks God's 00:17:32.38\00:17:36.65 warning system that prompt prompts us to manage our labor 00:17:36.65\00:17:40.32 and rest cycles. And by doing this, we alter God's order in 00:17:40.32\00:17:44.56 the brain and that surplus of adenosine then prompts the 00:17:44.56\00:17:48.13 release of adrenaline. Another stimulant and the blocking of 00:17:48.13\00:17:51.77 the 2 a receptor releases doping mean another stimulant 00:17:51.77\00:17:55.67 and mood enhancer. But this receptor it to it gets 00:17:55.67\00:17:59.04 desensitize over time so that caffeine fails to produce the 00:17:59.04\00:18:02.11 same feeling. Meanwhile, the caffeine restricts the blood 00:18:02.11\00:18:05.85 flow in the brain by up to 30%, particularly to the frontal 00:18:05.85\00:18:09.55 lobe of our brain. This is our reasoning center where we 00:18:09.55\00:18:12.99 choose between right and wrong, where we hear and respond to 00:18:12.99\00:18:16.42 the voice of the holy spirit where we accept and obey God's 00:18:16.42\00:18:19.89 law where we resist temptation and so we can to buy the 00:18:19.89\00:18:25.17 effects of Sen we need spiritual and moral strength 00:18:25.17\00:18:29.77 and caffeine instead of providing spiritual moral 00:18:29.77\00:18:32.41 strength. It weakens that very part of the brain where we do 00:18:32.41\00:18:36.14 that spiritual work with God that is so essential. 00:18:36.14\00:18:39.35 Add to that a list of reported symptoms related to caffeine 00:18:39.35\00:18:42.58 consumption, irritability, depressed mood, nervousness, 00:18:42.58\00:18:45.62 upset stomach, muscle twitches, insomnia, hormone imbalance, 00:18:45.62\00:18:49.36 poor sleep regulation. All of these don't appear to be what 00:18:49.36\00:18:53.96 God desires for us. I've heard claims that caffeine or coffee 00:18:53.96\00:18:58.43 has healthy antioxidants, God is so good. He's given us blue 00:18:58.43\00:19:02.74 berries and pomegranate and green leafy vegetables, fruits, 00:19:02.74\00:19:07.11 packed and loaded with these wonderful things without side 00:19:07.11\00:19:10.31 effects. The God has given us all sorts of things to eat and 00:19:10.31\00:19:14.02 ways to eat them. That increase our strength and boost our 00:19:14.02\00:19:17.75 energy. But not everything that grows out of the earth is for 00:19:17.75\00:19:21.66 our consumption. We know this because there are things that 00:19:21.66\00:19:25.33 do that and have side effects and do stuff to our body. 00:19:25.33\00:19:28.00 We certainly avoid poisons that damage us immediately. But 00:19:28.00\00:19:31.53 caffeine is one of those in our spiritual life. Doesn't damage 00:19:31.53\00:19:34.80 just there. Listen to this, Texas here in first Corinthians 00:19:34.80\00:19:37.67 10. 31, therefore, whether you eat or drink or whatever you 00:19:37.67\00:19:42.61 do, do it all to the glory of God. So God is inviting each 00:19:42.61\00:19:47.22 one of us to say take my gifts that I've given to you tough 00:19:47.22\00:19:50.35 freely use that are healthy for you and use of those things. 00:19:50.35\00:19:54.59 And it's by the Holy Spirit's power. Each one of us have 00:19:54.59\00:19:57.39 habits were things that we've inherited from the past that 00:19:57.39\00:20:00.10 God is leading us to lay aside. But a drink, pure water. 00:20:00.10\00:20:04.10 It's good and it's good for you. 00:20:04.10\00:20:06.57 >> One man, thank you so much. Can you know good practical 00:20:06.57\00:20:09.87 scientific, too? I like the sign of backing. Before we go 00:20:09.87\00:20:12.94 to the next question, just want to remind you you can send in 00:20:12.94\00:20:15.74 your questions for an upcoming Bible Q and a program or will 00:20:15.74\00:20:19.48 feature an answer.

The Instagram handle is 3ABN 00:20:42.04\00:20:46.71 underscore official. That's 3ABN underscore official. 00:20:46.71\00:20:52.08 We're going go to Pastor John next. And this is still kind of 00:20:52.08\00:20:54.98 a practical question. 00:20:54.98\00:20:56.65 This came from Daniel in, but not the Daniels on the set 00:20:56.65\00:21:00.42 here, Daniel in New Zealand and he sent in via e-mail 00:21:00.42\00:21:05.03 Ken 7, 7, 7, be used in things like email addresses, bank card 00:21:05.03\00:21:09.53 pin numbers. My grandma says 7, 7, 7, is only for the cross and 00:21:09.53\00:21:14.00 should never be used on worldly things. Can you shed some light 00:21:14.00\00:21:17.81 on this matter, please? 00:21:17.81\00:21:19.67 >> OK, I could answer that question. And one 0nd, you can 00:21:19.67\00:21:22.48 use 7, 7, 7, Yes. Let me just tell you why some people have 00:21:22.48\00:21:27.58 the views that they do in reference to the number 7 at 00:21:27.58\00:21:30.12 all. You'll find in the Bible if you go to Genesis Chapter 5 00:21:30.12\00:21:33.36 and purse. 31, the only place that 7, 7, 7, is used in the 00:21:33.36\00:21:37.96 Bible 00:21:37.96\00:21:39.13 is in describing the age of La Mac. The Bible says altogether 00:21:39.13\00:21:43.70 Love Mac lived a total of 777 years and then he died. So 00:21:43.70\00:21:50.51 outside of that, you find a number of sevens and I I'm a 00:21:50.51\00:21:53.58 prophecy student. I like the scriptures and night in 00:21:53.58\00:21:57.28 numerology is if I could use that phrase loosely, not in the 00:21:57.28\00:21:59.78 professional sense, but I like to look at the connections in 00:21:59.78\00:22:02.48 scripture. But these numbers that come, he was an 00:22:02.48\00:22:04.95 association that might even sparked your interest to look 00:22:04.95\00:22:08.49 deeply into it. 00:22:08.49\00:22:09.92 But suffice it to say 00:22:09.92\00:22:11.53 the number 7 is not prohibited. The Bible doesn't prohibit the 00:22:11.53\00:22:15.26 use of his matter of fact. What can you just pointed out? 00:22:15.26\00:22:18.07 Prohibition is to prohibit the things that affect your 00:22:18.07\00:22:21.17 worship, affect your body, affect your relationship with 00:22:21.17\00:22:23.61 God. 00:22:23.61\00:22:24.64 The number 7 is not one of those. Here's some of the 00:22:24.64\00:22:27.24 sevens in the Bible. 00:22:27.24\00:22:29.24 You also find according to some Orthodox police, the number 7 00:22:29.24\00:22:33.62 is associated with the representation of the 3 full 00:22:33.62\00:22:36.85 Trinity, 7, 7, 7, father, son and Holy Spirit. So there you 00:22:36.85\00:22:41.16 have that association. 00:22:41.16\00:22:42.86 But consider this. 00:22:42.86\00:22:44.39 Here's how the number 7 finds itself inscription coming days 00:22:44.39\00:22:47.60 and week 7, 00:22:47.60\00:22:49.46 what David Cobb less the 7th one, the 7th day of creation is 00:22:49.46\00:22:53.40 called The Sabbath. Jesus and the Apostles observe the 7th 00:22:53.40\00:22:57.84 day of the week. 7 today as a sign of allegiance to our God 00:22:57.84\00:23:02.01 is he killed 20st 12 20 7, please. Priest Boeing 7 00:23:02.01\00:23:06.25 trumpets. And you find that just before the fall of the 00:23:06.25\00:23:09.85 Wall of Jericho and Revelation has a host of Seven's and here 00:23:09.85\00:23:13.92 they are 00:23:13.92\00:23:16.49 7 churches, 7 spirit of God, 7 blessings. Most people don't 00:23:16.49\00:23:21.26 see that. Have to look for that. 7 Golden Lamp stands. 00:23:21.26\00:23:25.23 7 stars which of the 7 Angels to the 7 churches, 7 seals the 00:23:25.23\00:23:29.80 lamb with 7 eyes and 7 horns. 7 angels that stand before God 00:23:29.80\00:23:34.74 and they are going to blow the 7 trumpets. 00:23:34.74\00:23:37.41 7 thunders 7,000 killed in the earthquake just before the 7th 00:23:37.41\00:23:41.85 trumpet is sounded the bees with 7 heads. 7 Angel was 7 00:23:41.85\00:23:45.72 Viles of the 7 last plagues 00:23:45.72\00:23:47.96 the beast with 7 has associated with the 7 Mountains and 7 00:23:47.96\00:23:52.13 kings that give their power and support to the 8th King from 00:23:52.13\00:23:55.46 the bottomless pit. But he is a positive way to remember 7 00:23:55.46\00:23:59.43 Matthew 18 for 21 ton. Peter came to him. That is to crisis 00:23:59.43\00:24:02.97 said 00:24:02.97\00:24:04.14 Lord, how often shell my brother sent against me and I 00:24:04.14\00:24:07.18 forgive him up to 7 times and Jesus in first, 22 said, 00:24:07.18\00:24:12.11 I do not say to you up to 7 times but up to 70 times 7. 00:24:12.11\00:24:17.02 That's a positive way of representing and knowing the 00:24:17.02\00:24:20.49 beauty of the number 7. 00:24:20.49\00:24:21.66 >> Hey, man, I love that. Let's go to dad here next. 00:24:21.66\00:24:26.43 This one is could be a sensitive question, but it's a 00:24:26.43\00:24:30.40 very important question that came in via text. Is it a sin 00:24:30.40\00:24:34.54 to indulge in sex before marriage? 00:24:34.54\00:24:38.11 >> Well, it's a 00:24:38.11\00:24:40.18 that question. Thank you for sending that in. And I'm sure 00:24:40.18\00:24:43.51 there's a lot of viewers that would ask that question 00:24:43.51\00:24:49.48 and well, my simple as would be, yes, it is a sad 00:24:49.48\00:24:54.86 do sex before marriage. But then you would ask why hope 00:24:54.86\00:24:57.83 because God set so that again, that's not a row could recently 00:24:57.83\00:25:00.93 there. I'm sure, 00:25:00.93\00:25:02.06 first for most people. So 00:25:02.06\00:25:03.77 here's first John, 3, 4, just to show what's in is 00:25:03.77\00:25:07.97 it says for whosoever scum in the sand, transgress as also 00:25:07.97\00:25:11.87 the law for Santa's the transgression of the law. 00:25:11.87\00:25:15.91 So then is adultery part of the law, one of the 10 Commandments 00:25:15.91\00:25:20.88 of the 4 of the law of God. It says thou shalt not commit 00:25:20.88\00:25:23.92 adultery. And then you say well is having sex before marriage 00:25:23.92\00:25:28.12 adultery. If you look it up in the dictionary today, it's 00:25:28.12\00:25:31.53 more. It has to be a person that's married and having sex 00:25:31.53\00:25:35.63 or 00:25:35.63\00:25:36.67 with relations with someone that's not their spouse. 00:25:36.67\00:25:41.17 But if we go to Matthew Chapter 5 verse 27, his Jesus is 00:25:41.17\00:25:45.27 definition 00:25:45.27\00:25:46.74 the goal tree. 00:25:46.74\00:25:47.81 He says you have heard that. It was said by them of all 00:25:47.81\00:25:51.78 time, 00:25:51.78\00:25:53.11 thou shalt not commit adultery, 00:25:53.11\00:25:55.75 but I say unto you that whosoever look at on a woman to 00:25:55.75\00:25:59.29 lost after her hath committed adultery already in his heart. 00:25:59.29\00:26:04.19 So sex in any form 00:26:04.19\00:26:06.56 before marriage is sent. 00:26:06.56\00:26:08.76 What? I don't want to look at this from that deprivation 00:26:08.76\00:26:11.77 angle, you know, depriving of something that's really great 00:26:11.77\00:26:14.27 or good. 00:26:14.27\00:26:16.60 Let's look at it from a positive perspective. Good who 00:26:16.60\00:26:19.64 created mankind, 00:26:19.64\00:26:21.61 who gave them sexual desires 00:26:21.61\00:26:24.98 and who would know best how to fulfill them? 00:26:24.98\00:26:28.02 There are a lot of powerful hormones released in the sexual 00:26:28.02\00:26:31.49 experience and God put them there for man's pleasure 00:26:31.49\00:26:35.46 and bonding. 00:26:35.46\00:26:37.16 The Bible says that they become one flesh. 00:26:37.16\00:26:40.56 And science tells us that the first person that you have 00:26:40.56\00:26:43.50 intercourse with actually physiologically alters the 00:26:43.50\00:26:46.77 brain causing an imprint forever. 00:26:46.77\00:26:50.14 I heard that this example many years ago. Imagine it's 30 00:26:50.14\00:26:54.58 degrees below 0. 00:26:54.58\00:26:56.58 And, you know, you've seen those Fossett's that work even 00:26:56.58\00:27:01.05 though it's cold outside. 00:27:01.05\00:27:02.75 It's metal. 00:27:02.75\00:27:04.22 So you go outside and you put your town haha on this metal 00:27:04.22\00:27:08.82 water pipe 00:27:08.82\00:27:10.16 and you leave it there for about a minute, by the way, 00:27:10.16\00:27:12.76 don't do this at home, then remove it. 00:27:12.76\00:27:16.67 You can on the part of yours, Tom, on the pipe. And and 00:27:16.67\00:27:20.27 that's what happens when you have sexual relations, you 00:27:20.27\00:27:23.61 become one flesh. And when you break apart, you leave part of 00:27:23.61\00:27:27.71 yourself emotionally 00:27:27.71\00:27:31.65 and you might be saying, well, that on their blue never break 00:27:31.65\00:27:34.35 up. Well, that's wonderful. And I pray that you never do. 00:27:34.35\00:27:38.32 Let's look at the positives for waiting till after marriage. 00:27:38.32\00:27:43.16 What is more valued? Something that comes easy are something 00:27:43.16\00:27:46.49 that you have to work for or wait for 00:27:46.49\00:27:49.96 God's formula was for man and woman to on first 00:27:49.96\00:27:53.87 and then have intercourse. Intimacy is something that has 00:27:53.87\00:27:57.14 long-term satisfaction and brings contentment 00:27:57.14\00:28:01.71 in justice for one and Adam New Eve, his wife and she conceived 00:28:01.71\00:28:06.95 and bare Cain. So this knowing or intimacy 00:28:06.95\00:28:11.79 preceded, of course. So waiting till after marriage will bring 00:28:11.79\00:28:15.36 you both the greatest satisfaction. You'll have 00:28:15.36\00:28:18.59 greater trust for each other. 00:28:18.59\00:28:21.03 You won't be bringing guilt into the relationship. We 00:28:21.03\00:28:23.87 already have our own baggage that we bring in dealing with. 00:28:23.87\00:28:27.67 Why at anymore. 00:28:27.67\00:28:29.27 I wish God's blessing upon whoever you are. 00:28:29.27\00:28:32.11 And God's plan is always the best format of follow. If 00:28:32.11\00:28:35.71 you've already started, you can actually put it on pause, 00:28:35.71\00:28:38.88 build that trust, get married and then push resume. 00:28:38.88\00:28:43.12 And lastly, remember, God gave it to us for intimacy. And I'd 00:28:43.12\00:28:48.06 like to say that into me, see 00:28:48.06\00:28:51.73 opening up oneself, no walls, perfect trust and openness at 00:28:51.73\00:28:56.43 bring satisfaction that you're really desiring. Otherwise. 00:28:56.43\00:28:59.90 You're just using it as a drug which is just distracting you 00:28:59.90\00:29:03.34 from this fulfillment that God has for you asking a question. 00:29:03.34\00:29:07.88 >> Men, thank you so much that I'm not I don't think I'm gonna 00:29:07.88\00:29:10.68 forget that illustration, but it's a powerful one that's 00:29:10.68\00:29:13.78 really good. 00:29:13.78\00:29:15.22 Praise the Lord that there is forgiveness. If you have 00:29:15.22\00:29:17.62 stepped into that and that God can redeem hang on, can enable 00:29:17.62\00:29:21.06 us to walk in that victory. Let's go to Pastor John. 00:29:21.06\00:29:24.03 This came from Nancy who lives in New York. She sent in a text 00:29:24.03\00:29:29.10 was say 10 raining down fire on Joe. 00:29:29.10\00:29:33.67 >> Another very quick answer. Yes, you know, God job is 00:29:33.67\00:29:39.24 beautiful example of one who had endurance and endurance is 00:29:39.24\00:29:44.41 something that so many of us don't have, you know, job 00:29:44.41\00:29:48.28 doesn't treat it right. We quit. The car broke down. 00:29:48.28\00:29:52.15 We're not going to go back to work again a week. Something 00:29:52.15\00:29:54.42 happened to the church. We stopped going to church job is 00:29:54.42\00:29:57.06 the perfect example in scripture of a person with 00:29:57.06\00:29:59.73 endurance. 00:29:59.73\00:30:00.83 The Lord gave the enemy Satan 00:30:00.83\00:30:03.80 access to job. You find job one verse 8 to 12 because 00:30:03.80\00:30:08.34 Sayed was convinced that he's only serving you because you're 00:30:08.34\00:30:11.57 protecting him. Listen to that. The Bible says 00:30:11.57\00:30:14.48 and the Lord said, no, that's not the case. His heart is 00:30:14.48\00:30:16.98 right with me. So job one verse 8 to 12. Then the Lord said to 00:30:16.98\00:30:21.42 state and have you considered my servant job that there is 00:30:21.42\00:30:23.65 not unlike him on the to blame us. An upright man, 00:30:23.65\00:30:26.89 one of fair Sky and Sean's evil. So Satan and to the Lord 00:30:26.89\00:30:30.93 said 00:30:30.93\00:30:32.13 the job fair Cotton, nothing. Have you made a hedge about him 00:30:32.13\00:30:36.40 around his house holding around all that he has on every side. 00:30:36.40\00:30:39.70 You're blessed to work in his hands and his possessions have 00:30:39.70\00:30:42.14 increased in the land 00:30:42.14\00:30:43.81 but now stretch out your hand and touch him on and all that 00:30:43.81\00:30:48.11 he has and he will show the Kershaw to your face. 00:30:48.11\00:30:51.41 And the Lord said to Satan, behold, all that he has is in 00:30:51.41\00:30:55.05 your power only do not lay a hand on his person. So Satan 00:30:55.05\00:31:00.39 went out from the presence of the Lord. 00:31:00.39\00:31:03.36 So God gave Satan access, not praise God for that because the 00:31:03.36\00:31:07.10 devil can do to us what God does not allow him to do. 00:31:07.10\00:31:10.30 You know, he said to Peter, the devil designs to have you that 00:31:10.30\00:31:13.00 he may safety was weak. But I pray that your faith will not 00:31:13.00\00:31:15.34 fail. If the devil could do his own bidding without God 00:31:15.34\00:31:18.87 prohibiting him, he would wipe us out. Even now God put ahead 00:31:18.87\00:31:23.08 between the devil and said you can go this far but no farther. 00:31:23.08\00:31:26.28 And the Bible says and job one for 16 00:31:26.28\00:31:29.62 up reported came back one of the servants of job while I was 00:31:29.62\00:31:33.05 speaking. 00:31:33.05\00:31:34.49 Another also came in, said the fire of God fell from heaven 00:31:34.49\00:31:37.99 and burned up the sheep and the servants and consume them. 00:31:37.99\00:31:41.30 And I alone have escaped to tell you now you read that and 00:31:41.30\00:31:44.27 you see the Bible says the 5 God, no, just like tornadoes. 00:31:44.27\00:31:48.04 Today, God was accused of the fire. We call it even the act 00:31:48.04\00:31:53.11 of God. Insurance companies say, well, that's an act of 00:31:53.11\00:31:55.28 God. We're not going to cover that. 00:31:55.28\00:31:57.21 No, the devil not only sent the fire 00:31:57.21\00:32:00.82 but tried to blame God for the complex operation and was not 00:32:00.82\00:32:04.22 God. And so in the very and you'll find when you read the 00:32:04.22\00:32:06.96 Bible in revelation 13, the devil once again is going to 00:32:06.96\00:32:10.43 bring down fire from heaven on earth in the side of meant to 00:32:10.43\00:32:14.00 deceive those who dwell on the Earth by the means of those 00:32:14.00\00:32:17.40 miracles, 00:32:17.40\00:32:18.77 which he had power to do in the side of the beast. 00:32:18.77\00:32:21.47 But still once again, why we use fire, he remembered that 00:32:21.47\00:32:25.11 got answers. Elijah by 5, he remember that fire was a symbol 00:32:25.11\00:32:28.34 on the day of Pentecost of the power of God. He knows that 00:32:28.34\00:32:31.05 fire is the symbol of gotten 19, our lives and consuming 00:32:31.05\00:32:34.38 cent and uses it for the purpose of deception. So, 00:32:34.38\00:32:37.55 yes, he was the one that brought the fire down. 00:32:37.55\00:32:40.22 >> Thank you so much, Pastor John. We're going to go to 00:32:40.22\00:32:42.96 Daniel pairing next. This came in from Ruthie who lives in 00:32:42.96\00:32:46.33 Tennessee. And it's a text 00:32:46.33\00:32:48.33 since the mark of the beast and the mark of God are not 00:32:48.33\00:32:51.57 physically visible. How will store owners know who to sell 00:32:51.57\00:32:55.37 to and who not to sell to? 00:32:55.37\00:32:58.44 >> All right. This is a practical question to where 00:32:58.44\00:33:00.71 we're looking to the future and seeing how he's got prophecies 00:33:00.71\00:33:03.85 get fulfilled. I want to read revelation 13 versus 16 17 says 00:33:03.85\00:33:09.12 that he causes all both small and great rich and poor free 00:33:09.12\00:33:12.55 and slave to receive a mark on their right hand on their 00:33:12.55\00:33:15.66 foreheads and that no one may buy or sell except one who has 00:33:15.66\00:33:20.23 the mark. And so many people ask, how could this prophetic 00:33:20.23\00:33:23.93 picture of the United States with one modern worldwide 00:33:23.93\00:33:27.10 influence possibly come true? 00:33:27.10\00:33:29.87 It doesn't seem possible that the United States seen as a 00:33:29.87\00:33:32.41 defender of freedom with so blatantly abolish freedoms and 00:33:32.41\00:33:37.35 that people would participate with us. I want you to notice 3 00:33:37.35\00:33:40.58 things. Number one, this isn't just a physical or political 00:33:40.58\00:33:45.35 conflict. It is a spiritual conflict and a final conflict. 00:33:45.35\00:33:51.06 There will be spiritual forces working through people to wage 00:33:51.06\00:33:54.40 all-out war, seen and unseen and Satan will go to any links 00:33:54.40\00:33:59.83 to carry out his wicked purposes of destruction. 00:33:59.83\00:34:02.84 So we should not say that couldn't happen to a number 2. 00:34:02.84\00:34:07.01 I want you to notice that it is the beast power. This is the 00:34:07.01\00:34:09.48 political nation that prevents those from happening. The mark 00:34:09.48\00:34:12.75 from buying or selling. Now, the government which represents 00:34:12.75\00:34:16.45 the will of the people will seek to convert or eradicate 00:34:16.45\00:34:20.29 one group of people because they will not worship a 00:34:20.29\00:34:24.09 harmless looking alternative to the beast called the image of 00:34:24.09\00:34:28.30 the beast. In other words, conditions in the world will be 00:34:28.30\00:34:32.30 a so what will be such that it will convince the majority that 00:34:32.30\00:34:35.44 is for the common good to eliminate a minority who are 00:34:35.44\00:34:40.14 clearly on the wrong side of the most urgent issue. So 00:34:40.14\00:34:44.88 urgent that it is enough to forfeit our constitutional 00:34:44.88\00:34:48.02 freedoms. It will not be life as usual. Desperate times call 00:34:48.02\00:34:51.89 for desperate measures. And today's news reveals a steady 00:34:51.89\00:34:55.66 trend of events for those who are looking. Governments are 00:34:55.66\00:34:58.76 already using financial restriction and economic 00:34:58.76\00:35:01.56 isolation to put pressure on people. And a recent article I 00:35:01.56\00:35:04.77 read reported that 30 93% of world banks are at some level 00:35:04.77\00:35:09.50 working on a central bank digital currency for all 00:35:09.50\00:35:13.17 financial transactions can be managed are supervised by a 00:35:13.17\00:35:16.51 government agency now without conjecturing too much at about 00:35:16.51\00:35:20.25 the future. I want to recognize that a tool of this 00:35:20.25\00:35:23.28 significance and magnitudes can certainly put into effect to 00:35:23.28\00:35:26.92 restrict the financial autonomy of somebody who is deemed an 00:35:26.92\00:35:30.13 enemy of the people. 00:35:30.13\00:35:32.29 Number 3, I want you to notice that this text tells us that 00:35:32.29\00:35:34.56 the world will be divided into only 2 groups. And the contrast 00:35:34.56\00:35:38.70 between that will be stark and obvious will be no confusion as 00:35:38.70\00:35:42.57 to which group somebody is a part of. On the one hand, 00:35:42.57\00:35:45.54 one group is filled with the holy spirit radiating from 00:35:45.54\00:35:48.78 their life. Still seen as their willingness to die for loyal 00:35:48.78\00:35:52.45 allegiance to God express to worship. And the other group, 00:35:52.45\00:35:56.35 by contrast is devoid of the holy spirit. Completely motive. 00:35:56.35\00:36:00.46 I've made by self willing to kill for the same issue of 00:36:00.46\00:36:03.93 worship, which they believe is obedience to God as well. 00:36:03.93\00:36:07.50 Now we don't need to know exactly how prophecy will be 00:36:07.50\00:36:10.17 fulfilled, but we can trust that God Quest fulfilled every 00:36:10.17\00:36:13.17 prophecy up to now will carry out. Exactly. And we will see 00:36:13.17\00:36:17.01 exactly what God has protected. 00:36:17.01\00:36:18.77 >> The men, thank you so much to new so important that we 00:36:18.77\00:36:21.81 make a choice today for Jesus and to be on the right side and 00:36:21.81\00:36:25.01 then too evangelize and share the gospel with others. So they 00:36:25.01\00:36:29.65 have that opportunity to make a choice as well. Let's go to 00:36:29.65\00:36:32.55 dad. This is another text. We've got a lot of text on this 00:36:32.55\00:36:36.12 program here. This came from Linda in California. 00:36:36.12\00:36:39.83 Why does the Bible use Holy Spirit in some places and holy 00:36:39.83\00:36:44.17 Ghost? 00:36:44.17\00:36:45.60 >> In other places 00:36:45.60\00:36:48.30 and that was Linda. Linda, thank you, Linda, for sending 00:36:48.30\00:36:51.87 that question. 00:36:51.87\00:36:54.41 >> That is a good question. Why does it do one, you know, 00:36:54.41\00:36:57.15 sometimes holy ghost and sometimes Holy Spirit, 00:36:57.15\00:37:02.55 English terms, Holy Ghost voice, but they're completely 00:37:02.55\00:37:05.82 synonymous with each other. Actually 00:37:05.82\00:37:08.36 one derives from the old English word gassed. 00:37:08.36\00:37:12.96 And when you look that up in the Merriam-Webster dictionary, 00:37:12.96\00:37:15.43 it says it was obsolete word. It means to scare and it gives 00:37:15.43\00:37:19.93 a little example from Shakespeare's writings, 00:37:19.93\00:37:22.94 hair hair goes, quote, Casted by the noise that I made 00:37:22.94\00:37:28.98 full. Suddenly he fled. 00:37:28.98\00:37:31.61 That's old English 00:37:31.61\00:37:33.45 and the other 4 from the Latin long word at. So that's the 00:37:33.45\00:37:36.95 word that was adopted from a foreign language with little or 00:37:36.95\00:37:39.82 no modification that spiritus. 00:37:39.82\00:37:43.12 So like New Monday, both prefer to breath 00:37:43.12\00:37:46.23 this up to its animating power and the soul. 00:37:46.23\00:37:50.30 And then I looked up 00:37:50.30\00:37:51.93 in on the Internet here with a 00:37:51.93\00:37:54.50 Don Stewart from Blue Letter Bible Dot Orji to give him 00:37:54.50\00:37:59.04 credit. 00:37:59.04\00:38:01.04 It says why the difference in translation is the reason for 00:38:01.04\00:38:03.45 the difference is found in the story behind the translation of 00:38:03.45\00:38:06.21 the King James Bible. 00:38:06.21\00:38:08.92 When the New Testament was translated from Greek into 00:38:08.92\00:38:11.49 English, it was done by different committees 00:38:11.49\00:38:15.46 and one of the committee's consistently translated the 00:38:15.46\00:38:17.93 Greek word. 00:38:17.93\00:38:19.83 How a guy on numa as Holy Spirit 00:38:19.83\00:38:23.70 while the other committee translated as Holy Ghost. 00:38:23.70\00:38:27.70 So when the translation was completed and these differences 00:38:27.70\00:38:30.81 just remained in the taxpayer 00:38:30.81\00:38:32.97 so that you have the spirit of God referred to as both the 00:38:32.97\00:38:35.64 Holy Spirit and the Holy Ghost Get. There's no distinction 00:38:35.64\00:38:39.71 between the 2. 00:38:39.71\00:38:41.45 >> That's right. Yeah, I love that. 00:38:41.45\00:38:45.95 It's so fascinating to study the wording it in to get in and 00:38:45.95\00:38:48.82 to learn that and to see that we're going back to Daniel 00:38:48.82\00:38:51.89 parent here. This is what I don't know who is from it says 00:38:51.89\00:38:56.30 what does Isaiah 8 versus 11 through 20 to me. 00:38:56.30\00:39:02.84 >> All right. I can't read all of those versus here and still 00:39:02.84\00:39:06.37 answer the questions so you should go and read a whole 00:39:06.37\00:39:09.38 chapter. The current events of Isaiah 8 are these King has of 00:39:09.38\00:39:15.55 Judah is facing a powerful United Enemy King resident of 00:39:15.55\00:39:20.02 Syria and King Packet of Israel allied against him. There's 2 00:39:20.02\00:39:25.06 ways to view current events. One of them is to trust in 00:39:25.06\00:39:28.73 God's promises and act accordingly. The other way is 00:39:28.73\00:39:32.40 to trust in human wisdom and strength making alliances with 00:39:32.40\00:39:36.44 the world's methods instead. So God's promise in Isaiah 8 is 00:39:36.44\00:39:41.78 made plain through Isaiah in Chapter 7, chapter 7 versus 14 00:39:41.78\00:39:46.15 and onward and the particular the first 4 versus of Chapter 00:39:46.15\00:39:49.98 8. The promise is this. While Isaiah's child mom, her shallow 00:39:49.98\00:39:55.06 hash Baz is still a child. The 2 kings that has is facing 00:39:55.06\00:40:00.30 will be defeated by a Syria. There is no need for you to go 00:40:00.30\00:40:04.17 and seek help from any other human nation. Isaiah writes 00:40:04.17\00:40:08.04 this down a prophecy in verse 3. It is testified by 2 00:40:08.04\00:40:12.27 witnesses to testify. This is God's prophetic word. And this 00:40:12.27\00:40:16.48 is why Isaiah says in verse 6 0st 18 here, am I and the 00:40:16.48\00:40:20.72 children whom the Lord has given me we're for signs and 00:40:20.72\00:40:23.85 wonders in Israel. Even his family and our family should be 00:40:23.85\00:40:26.92 to a living testament of trusting in God's prophetic 00:40:26.92\00:40:30.56 word. 00:40:30.56\00:40:32.29 Now on the other hand versus 11 12 chapter 8, tell us that the 00:40:32.29\00:40:35.86 people they want it Confederacy or conspiracy or an alliance. 00:40:35.86\00:40:40.90 We want help from some other nation and they're seeking help 00:40:40.90\00:40:44.57 from others. Instead of God they don't trust got first, 00:40:44.57\00:40:47.71 19 tells us that this Confederacy really is seeking 00:40:47.71\00:40:51.05 an alliance with demons. Listen to this. When they say 00:40:51.05\00:40:53.58 to you seek those who are mediums and wizardry Wizards 00:40:53.58\00:40:56.85 who whisper and mother should not people seek their God. 00:40:56.85\00:41:01.39 So first, 21 22 says, though, that if you read those tax, 00:41:01.39\00:41:04.46 when we look for success outside of God, we're not going 00:41:04.46\00:41:07.23 to find it. It will be a zipper walking in darkness. We will 00:41:07.23\00:41:10.30 reap the bitter curses of our decision and then we will blame 00:41:10.30\00:41:14.00 other people for it. And so the solution versus 16 is this bind 00:41:14.00\00:41:18.57 up the testimony and seal the law among my disciples and we 00:41:18.57\00:41:22.64 see it again in first 20 to the law into the testimony. If they 00:41:22.64\00:41:26.45 do not speak according to this word, there is because there's 00:41:26.45\00:41:29.22 no light in them. The testimony remember is God's prophetic 00:41:29.22\00:41:32.95 word when we're facing current events where we see trouble on 00:41:32.95\00:41:36.62 the horizon hold tight to God's prophetic word. God's 00:41:36.62\00:41:40.60 prophecies will not fail and we will face united enemies 00:41:40.60\00:41:44.67 against God's people. God's prophetic word will not fail to 00:41:44.67\00:41:48.74 the testimony. But then to the law, the word there's Torah and 00:41:48.74\00:41:52.21 this is God's teaching throughout the Bible. It's his 00:41:52.21\00:41:54.48 moral law as well as all of God's teaching. And this lets 00:41:54.48\00:41:57.81 us know this is not just about the day events that took place 00:41:57.81\00:42:01.52 in his. This is for all people of all places. God's law is 00:42:01.52\00:42:06.25 what we should turning our attention to Isaiah now is 00:42:06.25\00:42:09.42 strengthened. Listen, diverse. 11 says for the Lord spoke to 00:42:09.42\00:42:12.86 me with a strong hand got strengthened me instructed me. 00:42:12.86\00:42:16.16 I should not walk in the ways of the people trust in God's 00:42:16.16\00:42:20.00 prophetic word, trust in the Bible. 00:42:20.00\00:42:22.80 >> And wonderful encouragement. We're going to come back to dad 00:42:22.80\00:42:26.37 here and this is another kind of Bible. Translation question. 00:42:26.37\00:42:29.68 This came in via text. Why is Matthew 17? 21 left out of some 00:42:29.68\00:42:36.82 Bible translations. Another good question there. 00:42:36.82\00:42:40.36 >> And that doesn't have the author of that. 00:42:40.36\00:42:45.16 The more modern translations. They don't include it because 00:42:45.16\00:42:48.96 there had with found better manuscripts to get the 00:42:48.96\00:42:52.83 translation problem. 00:42:52.83\00:42:55.74 I'm back in history. How these translations came about 00:42:55.74\00:43:01.31 King James version in this translator completed. That's 00:43:01.31\00:43:04.71 translation 16. 11 00:43:04.71\00:43:06.82 came from the Texas receptive switch was a Greek 00:43:06.82\00:43:11.42 rendition of the New Testament. 00:43:11.42\00:43:13.66 But it was revised, you know, your a** mess with the guy that 00:43:13.66\00:43:16.46 wrote that he revised several times. 00:43:16.46\00:43:19.13 But the New Testament in the King, James, was about 84% 00:43:19.13\00:43:25.07 from translate from intend. They'll he was the original 00:43:25.07\00:43:28.54 translating it into English and 00:43:28.54\00:43:31.84 King anyway. He needed to quick translation to make himself 00:43:31.84\00:43:37.71 look good. So the heat, 00:43:37.71\00:43:40.72 but it doesn't change the meaning. When you look at this 00:43:40.72\00:43:43.02 text here 00:43:43.02\00:43:44.52 and you know, a scribe Hobley added it by mistake because 00:43:44.52\00:43:48.76 when they looked at the older 00:43:48.76\00:43:51.76 manuscripts, it wasn't in the older manuscript. And so, 00:43:51.76\00:43:56.10 but they did. Most of them think that it was from Mark 00:43:56.10\00:43:59.23 Chapter 9 verse. 29 00:43:59.23\00:44:02.17 Mark 9.29, it says MS 00:44:02.17\00:44:05.21 turn here. I'm 29 00:44:05.21\00:44:08.98 says. And he said unto them. This kind come forth by nothing 00:44:08.98\00:44:13.11 but by prayer and fasting. So when the translators didn't 00:44:13.11\00:44:18.19 have it in when they were translating Matthew, they just 00:44:18.19\00:44:21.46 added that in there. 00:44:21.46\00:44:23.89 But if you look and Bible were supposed to compared script 00:44:23.89\00:44:26.96 with scripture, so there's 3 all these gospel writers, 00:44:26.96\00:44:30.60 the 3 topic once wrote this story and Luke Chapter 9 00:44:30.60\00:44:35.74 and that's going to burst. 37 00:44:35.74\00:44:39.11 has the same story 00:44:39.11\00:44:41.48 without this fasting and prayer. 00:44:41.48\00:44:44.25 And it came to pass that on the next day when they were come 00:44:44.25\00:44:46.75 down from the Hill. Much people met him and behold, the man of 00:44:46.75\00:44:50.29 the company cried outing master. I beseech t look upon 00:44:50.29\00:44:53.46 my son for his mind. My only child and Lois spirit taking 00:44:53.46\00:44:56.96 him and he suddenly crieth out and it tariff them any form 00:44:56.96\00:45:00.43 with again and bruising. Him hardly be parted from him 00:45:00.43\00:45:03.87 and I'd be sought 9 disciples to cast him out and they could 00:45:03.87\00:45:07.44 not. And Jesus answering said faithless and perverse 00:45:07.44\00:45:10.57 generation. How long shall I be with you and stuff for you? 00:45:10.57\00:45:14.24 Bring Dyson hither. And as he was yet coming, the devil threw 00:45:14.24\00:45:17.51 him down and tear him and Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit and 00:45:17.51\00:45:20.72 heal the child labor to him again to his father. So he 00:45:20.72\00:45:23.69 doesn't even mention the but mark and then they added to 00:45:23.69\00:45:27.19 Matthew there. But it doesn't really change the thought of 00:45:27.19\00:45:30.59 the tax and its second. Peter Chapter one. 21 it we're told 00:45:30.59\00:45:35.30 how inspiration is given second Peter 00:45:35.30\00:45:39.37 Chapter 00:45:39.37\00:45:41.20 one verse. 21, 00:45:41.20\00:45:43.41 it says that Holy Man of God Spake or we could add to the 00:45:43.41\00:45:48.14 wrote as they were moved by the Holy Spirit. So we believe in 00:45:48.14\00:45:53.31 thought inspiration rather than wordings. Fresh word is true. 00:45:53.31\00:45:56.92 You can depend on. 00:45:56.92\00:45:58.05 >> Amen. Thank you so much, dad. Last question here is for 00:45:58.05\00:46:02.26 Pastor John. This is from Norma who lives in Florida and she 00:46:02.26\00:46:08.20 sent in via text and referenced a revelation to verse 17. 00:46:08.20\00:46:13.50 Well, everyone who goes to heaven get a white stuff. 00:46:13.50\00:46:17.41 >> I love this one. You know this. This one is so 00:46:17.41\00:46:21.04 synonymous, too. The mercy of God, Larry, that extrapolation. 00:46:21.04\00:46:24.41 21 the nation 2 for 17. Here it is. 00:46:24.41\00:46:28.88 He who has an ear. Let him hear what the spirit says to the 00:46:28.88\00:46:31.39 churches to him who overcomes. I will give us some of the 00:46:31.39\00:46:35.46 hidden manna to eat 00:46:35.46\00:46:37.36 and I will give him a white stone and on the stone a new 00:46:37.36\00:46:39.69 name written 00:46:39.69\00:46:40.73 which no one knows except him who receives it. 00:46:40.73\00:46:44.27 When I study this easily got 25 years ago has been a revelation 00:46:44.27\00:46:48.17 7 on California. I thought White Stone and I want to road 00:46:48.17\00:46:53.31 lead to a number of books to find out to history behind 00:46:53.31\00:46:56.11 this. And I discovered in the Roman court system, he was set 00:46:56.11\00:46:59.41 up pretty much like ours today. Very traditionally set a lot of 00:46:59.41\00:47:02.85 what happens in America. You can find the roots in the 00:47:02.85\00:47:05.29 Bible 00:47:05.29\00:47:06.82 and I'm Wendy accused 00:47:06.82\00:47:09.79 when the jury could not come to a verdict, it was left up to 00:47:09.79\00:47:13.60 the accused to determine its own fate, calm, wind. And so 00:47:13.60\00:47:17.80 what was a nervous moment because they had a leather bag 00:47:17.80\00:47:21.34 and kind of like kind of like one of those game shows. 00:47:21.34\00:47:24.71 You have to put your hand the bag and she was a white stone 00:47:24.71\00:47:27.51 or Blackstone. If you pick the Blackstone 00:47:27.51\00:47:31.71 was a fiction. 00:47:31.71\00:47:33.35 If you chose the Whitestone, you're exonerated. Now going 00:47:33.35\00:47:36.65 back to what we talked about early by Jesus being her 00:47:36.65\00:47:38.72 advocate. 00:47:38.72\00:47:39.99 Notice he says I will give you 00:47:39.99\00:47:44.06 a stone with a new name on it. So he says, wait a minute 00:47:44.06\00:47:48.10 annual. I'm taking a new day life before you go 00:47:48.10\00:47:51.97 going to give you the stone. 00:47:51.97\00:47:53.70 So you put in the back. 00:47:53.70\00:47:55.64 You already have the Whitestone and now they don't know that. 00:47:55.64\00:47:59.61 But I have exonerated you already. I've represented at 00:47:59.61\00:48:03.31 the tone for your transgression. So when he took 00:48:03.31\00:48:07.25 the stone out, 00:48:07.25\00:48:08.72 this is I will give them a stone, a white stone, 00:48:08.72\00:48:12.05 the beauty of that Jesus in his mercy 00:48:12.05\00:48:15.29 stands with us at the bar of accusation. 00:48:15.29\00:48:19.59 And because we told our advocate of if we confess our 00:48:19.59\00:48:22.46 sins, he is faithful. And just to forgive us, our sins cleanse 00:48:22.46\00:48:26.03 us from all unrighteousness for Sean 1, 9, So while they're 00:48:26.03\00:48:29.24 waiting for us to condemn ourselves, 00:48:29.24\00:48:31.84 he says, hey, because you've been open with me, have a tone 00:48:31.84\00:48:35.28 for your son. So if you are, if your sins are forgiven and York 00:48:35.28\00:48:40.18 lands from all unrighteousness, what stolen should you have a 00:48:40.18\00:48:45.42 white stone and then you are exonerated. Your name is 00:48:45.42\00:48:48.42 changed for anonymity. You know the name Daniel is no longer 00:48:48.42\00:48:52.06 associate with a crime. He gets a new name, but he looks like 00:48:52.06\00:48:55.40 then, you know, that's not to you. And that's why the Bible 00:48:55.40\00:48:58.10 says Daniel 7 0st. 22, I love these words. 00:48:58.10\00:49:00.90 Speaking about the court, seen the Whitestone is a symbol that 00:49:00.90\00:49:04.71 the court will always exonerate those covered by the blood of 00:49:04.71\00:49:07.91 the Lamb Daniel 7.22. Until the ancient of days came and 00:49:07.91\00:49:12.95 judgment was made in favor of the Saints at the time came for 00:49:12.95\00:49:17.89 the Saints to possess the kingdom. So the white stone is 00:49:17.89\00:49:21.36 the symbol of God's exonerating 00:49:21.36\00:49:24.39 justice and mercy for those covered by the blood of the 00:49:24.39\00:49:27.93 lamb and he gives it to us and we don't have to earn it. 00:49:27.93\00:49:31.40 >> I'm and what a tremendous blessing. 00:49:31.40\00:49:34.10 It's been a insightful study. You all are great students of 00:49:34.10\00:49:37.04 the word I have learned here today and we hope you've 00:49:37.04\00:49:39.51 learned as well. We just have a couple moments left and I'm 00:49:39.51\00:49:42.08 going to throw out a question. 00:49:42.08\00:49:43.98 How do you all study the Bible? I know sometimes when we travel 00:49:43.98\00:49:47.75 or people ask us, how do you study so is their devices? 00:49:47.75\00:49:50.99 You use scissors, certain method you use. We don't have 00:49:50.99\00:49:53.82 much time would just go around the circle. 00:49:53.82\00:49:55.79 >> Okay. That Daniel Tone and Chris, I could talk forever 00:49:55.79\00:49:59.66 regularity. His he number one. And I I just I move my way 00:49:59.66\00:50:03.93 through every book of the Bible, not always in an order, 00:50:03.93\00:50:06.57 but and then I started back through. I do a lot of 00:50:06.57\00:50:08.94 underlining and highlighting trying to connect words and 00:50:08.94\00:50:12.47 phrases to places I find them in other parts of the Bible 00:50:12.47\00:50:15.44 said with the whole Bible kind of nexus, a a unit and over 00:50:15.44\00:50:19.21 years, the it gets easier and easier. 00:50:19.21\00:50:21.28 >> A lot of that and that like he said, that's my Bible there. 00:50:21.28\00:50:24.52 This is the second time we've gone through my wife and I 00:50:24.52\00:50:26.62 together and boy, we have some rich Bible studies we associate 00:50:26.62\00:50:30.69 hey, I read that in the New Testament.

That becomes a living 00:50:36.16\00:50:39.93 fountain of water and you don't have to guess. Can you claim 00:50:39.93\00:50:43.44 its promises?
