Good afternoon. Good morning. I hope you all are into it. But before I do, I just want to say hello to you all Hope you all doing well Also quick little announcement for those of you that are taking the little classes that we're doing the seminary style class that we're doing on patreon You will have a follow-up to that on Monday, maybe Sunday, but more likely Monday as well as an An extra assignment so you'll have two different assignments that will coincide that you'll have on Monday Hope you all are enjoying it. Hope you all are getting something out of it to do 25 Observations some of you may have done even more than 25 observations You may have done 28 you may have done 30 you may have done 35 then have to do 25 more on top of that I Know what I know it. I know it. I know it, but you'll be surprised with how many different conclusions or not conclusions We don't have conclusions, but how many observations that you could actually make so I miss about questions No, I did not let's wait a second. Did I really that's good. Well, you know what? I'll fix that Let's go see. I'll fix that right now. Did I really did I really? Please tell me I didn't do that Please tell me I didn't do that. Let's see. Let's see. I don't even know where it came from I don't even know where that thing came from. Let's see. Where's that it? Where is that located? Hold on one second I got to find that did it really I hope I didn't The I actually did I actually did There you go. But you know what dog on it. Tell you what I'm gonna do. Tell you what I'm gonna do Thank you Lisa. I'm gonna fix it right here.  I call myself all kind of names I can't believe I did that but I'm gonna fix it right now All right, hold on There's my problem right there. There is my problem right there moving too fast is the issue and spell checking I just just just I don't know what to say about me I have no idea what to say about me, but let me let me fix that. Let me fix it right now All right. Thank you, Lisa. I appreciate I appreciate you Lisa for catching that and the rest of you guys that didn't catch that I don't know what to say about you. I don't know what to say about you So anyway, I will have those questions for you on on next week. Also What I do want to cover Is matter of fact what I ought to be doing is I ought to wait a second What I ought to be doing is marking some of these questions down as well Let me go ahead and do that as well And then I'll go ahead and jump into your and to you all's questions as well. So But what I what I also am going to do on on next week one of the things that I that I plan on doing on next week is Well, either next week or the week after it'll be q&a for most of the week Probably probably more than likely next week will be the week that we do that And each day will be except except for monday because monday is the bible study day But what we'll do is we'll cover Certain aspects questions over The holy spirit question. Oh questions over different aspects of salvation. Even if they are Different doctrine on issues of salvation, then maybe one day we're going to do is we're going to look at Kind of a reaction reactions From different videos that people have said except on on other social media platform Just things that are out there and just kind of go with a with a christian perspective And it also kind of engaged you guys and then one where it's just kind of a free for all So it'll probably three or four different days of doing just that So that being the case, let me go ahead and mark a few of these questions also And then get to the few that I that I've already taken Initially I only took the first I think three or four that were that were listed on there So if you if you put if you submitted a question previously And it was not one of the first three or four Then go ahead and resubmit it again.  That way i'll see it Okay, uh Moving moving moving let me finish marking a few more of these questions and then we'll go ahead and And jump into it and I'll go ahead and get started. I'm just looking at one of the questions Okay, okay. Let me go ahead and pull up the first few questions Uh, the first four questions are from michelle tina uh full million and David so live The first three are really kind of related though the first three The first one from michelle says quarry in the old testament Is there any verse or verses that you could point to? Where you can say without a doubt. This is jesus the son of god and not the father If so, uh, is there evidence to prove it? Well One of the things you have to look at when When we hear these terms remember god is speaking to us in a way or he's conveying information us in a way that we can understand it What i'm trying to get you to say is or what i'm trying to say is his his speech His Preferred speech I would imagine would probably be higher than ours. So he has to Bring it down when you speak to someone you speak to someone in a way that they can understand it Even if it's not a higher way or a lower way.  There are some some words that you say between you and your girlfriends and you and your buddies And only they know it's you know kind of an inside joke some words that only you guys kind of latch on to Well, if the if if let's say if let's just say me and steve and dutch are hanging out And we have our own little language some words that we say to each other and then somebody else walks up Let's say monkey moves walks up and he's a monkey moves not part of the crew He's not he's not part of the crew is not part of the group But we want to talk to him we wouldn't talk to him with our own language that we have amongst ourselves Why because we want to speak to people in a way that they i'm just messing with you monkey moves But we want to speak to people in a way that they can understand You want to convey a message well with god You know what god has a problem. He didn't have a problem. We have a problem The problem is for god that the people that he's speaking to aren't as aren't that right And so he has to speak down to us and oftentimes he'll use what's called what we call Anthropomorphic language language that is identifiable to mankind that man can relate to The reason why I say that is because when we talk about father Is god Father a father well a father like how how we think when we think of father What does that conjure up it does not it for us? It's going to conjure up My father jimmy minor or your father or my children i'm their father But that's not quite the way it is with god And the truth is there's not a lot of language that god could use Or at least that he that he has or that he did use a session say that If god wanted to communicate a certain way to where we could get it he could But for whatever reason the way that he's done so There's still a veil there that we don't quite get and so when we think of father We might naturally think father like father son when I was a little boy. I thought that Since jesus was god's son God was jesus's father then I had to figure out. Well, who was jesus's father? Who who was he a father to and I thought that jesus must have been the father santa claus santa claus was jesus's son And my little mind i'm trying to think you know father son like that Sometimes we do the same thing with god not that kind of court goofy But he's not a father in that sense, but what he but what he is is it's all it's it's it's kind of given Um headship is given authority. It's given us something to look to Okay, now the issue with them with with god the father god the son god the holy spirit is that uh, there is similarities and then there are distinctions they are distinct And they are the same And they are distinct and the same All the time at the same time Unlike those who might be one as a modal is well There we think they would they would have us to believe that They are this at this moment and then this at that moment and then that at that moment If they would get the different modes away, they would be fine. And so um So to answer your question Is there a place appointed that says that jesus is the son? and the the son Can you say without a doubt That this is jesus the son and not the father The problem with the old testament is that we don't see the name jesus What we do see though is him being sent by the father We see that uh in Exodus 3 We see it in deuteronomy. We see them being the same and distinct also in creation account Okay, but you couldn't say verbatim you couldn't say this specifically says is the father or not the father Because jesus as far as we see his name is not contemplated in the old testament now he is We see him show up In the old testament but his name and so that would be a little bit difficult now going on to to tina's questions She says i believe in the father son in the holy spirit, but i'm not understanding where the father will be Are we going to see the father with the son separate or together? in in one Here's the answer We're not sure how we're going to see them The language says use is that he's at the right hand of the father But that's not true in the sense that he's sitting right there Here's god and jesus is right there at his right hand No, that's not what that means that god is always in one spot and jesus is right beside We haven't we don't know we have no idea We couldn't we couldn't begin to fathom we can sit and think and contemplate and figure things out and be wrong We just we just don't know we have no idea How we'll see God the father god the son god the holy spirit what we can say for a fact is God the father has always existed as god the father god the son has always existed God the holy spirit has always existed. So we've seen so they all have existed forever now jesus As far as we know by scriptures will exist in his in that physical in flesh Uh, he didn't need to have glorified flesh because he is who he is So we'll see that remember bible says that this same jesus will see him return the same way And forever he'll beat he'll be that way How would we see things we don't know because here's a here's a good question No one will be able to tell us no one right now can say No one would say can say right now. What would the holy? What's what's the role of the holy spirit? What would the holy spirit do in heaven? We we don't know All we know is god the father son the holy spirit will exist in heaven How how that's going to be don't know no eyes have seen no ears have heard Of none. I'm adding this of none of what's happening in heaven. We we just don't know We just don't know when when you get a little bit of glimpse when he writes it down. Don't know Don't know just don't know we can't figure it out For million says kori. I just recently started to truly understand the tri-u nature of god But I find myself struggling when praying Do who do I address in my prayers the father the son of the holy spirit? You have you have not seen if you pray and say lord jesus You have not seen if you pray and you say Father god If you pray father in the name of jesus according to according to my relation what he's done of jesus That's fine. Also If you if if in your prayers, um, holy spirit speak to me holy spirit You you have not you have not violated anything long as you pray to god As long as you pray to god, then you are fine. Amen And then david says biblical teaching does not line up with life's reality. It's a question mark I don't if he's asked that or stating that does not line up with life's reality Um, seems like we have been taught wrong It would be more realistic to say that god saves us via by jesus Then he leaves us alone until we die. Well, I'm not sure what he's getting at but he didn't leave us alone He doesn't he does not leave us alone. And I think life reality does line up with the bible I'm not sure what he's getting it So if david you want to Reef if you're still there if you want to rephrase that well then then then so be it Okay, and I'll I'll come make that question. So if you want to start answering the questions that you guys have just submitted Okay, here's starting off right now How can I know if she is the one for me? Uh, she does love god. Okay. Well her loving god You know what I was told when when we were getting married The pastor that was that was uh presiding over us He said how you know she's the one is when you say I do now you're talking about before you say I do Once you say I do he's the one she's the one that's that but prior to that Well, I I couldn't tell you I couldn't tell you all I can say is this You need to make sure that before you get married and this goes for male males and females You need to make sure that before you get married that you are tolerant I don't mean socially tolerant I mean tolerant that they don't have to meet all of your demands They don't doubt all your eyes and cross your teeth that Or and also by the way, you have to be willing to state you have to be resolved in this statement that this is it There is no plan B. There is no going the other way. Nope. No, that's so I'm here till death do us part. That's that's what I'm I'm vowing. I'm vowing a vow till death do us part That's the way you have to look at it And so you have to be tolerant now first of all I think you all need to understand especially those of you all who are Maybe in the dating scene and so forth that whoever you talk to wherever you're dating right now that person is putting their best foot forward and so are you so Understand that I would say the best thing you can do is just is to try to be honest with that person as often as you As often as you can Let that people let the person see who you're going to be This is one of the things that you should do back in the day was we called it courting We call it courting. They call it courting You you got this they got to see you at your best. You got to see them at the annual worst. I'm sorry and so You kind of want that you want them to you don't see the family If if you got a some females around you if you're male You got some females that you love some sisters mothers aunts take them around they're gonna see them anyway And vice versa ladies you got a father especially if you have a father Take that take that boy to see the father You got some uncles and brothers let them let them see let them kick the tires so to speak let them mess with them Let them pick them on Okay, let them judge them But you need as many eyes on this as possible And then let this person see how the family is.  Uh, I didn't tell you this You know, you know, but I think now's a good time to tell you I got a couple aunts and uncles that smoke weed and they always go to the house I just just want you to know that Right you you want to be as honest and upfront with people they need to see who you are See what they're getting so that once the eye dudes happen and honeymoon's over that nobody's caught off guard And they can kind of weigh that out. You know what? Yeah, she's got a attitude. She's yeah, you know, um The the moment this happens and she's I don't know or the moment this happens with him. I don't know so There's there's no rush. There is no rush Uh, father time is not I'm saying father time someone's gonna say what I said But but father time is not ticking that fast. You got time.  Amen so Oh, by the way, also, I would say if you have a church home Go to your pastor. Let your pastor or her pastor. What have you sit and talk with you both Okay Is there no there's no there's no real there's no literal see a forget for us It's just metaphor metaphorical talk There is no real see a forgetfulness and by the way when people make the statement or when the bible makes a statement About god not remembering your sins. It's not that god didn't remember like he didn't oh, you know I forgot that you did that. No, he knows that but he didn't regard the word that shoes there In the Hebrew word is a car And it doesn't it doesn't mean just that he I totally forgot no or remember no It's just that he didn't regard them anymore. So Can you take communion at home? Does it have to be in a corporate setting in a church? No, it does not as a matter of fact Let's say a couple things about about communion one The bible says as often as you do this It didn't say he didn't say as often as you do this here at the church You can do it anywhere You can as a matter of fact the first communion where was it? It wasn't in a church. It was just in some room You can take communion do communion anywhere.  So you can do it at home. You could also do communion by yourself There's there's no stipulations on this that you have to do it with a bunch of people how many folks Now one of the questions that comes up in regards to communion and I've seen this before When I was a youth pastor someone asked this question and for me For me personally I would never do this and I've seen other folks who I wouldn't do it for for a particular reason The question is what sort of bread do you have to use? And then what sort of wine do you have to use do you have to use a certain type of bread certain type of wine? Well, remember what you're doing you are Taking communion in remembrance of the Lord and if you do let's say for example if someone wants to take a million they're using I don't know donuts Or they're using this happened before true. This actually did happen several times. I've seen Where they the kids took communion and they did doritos Or they did something else Here's the problem if you're doing something like that with with donuts or doritos or something flavorful something That's like wow that's different Or if the drink is Red pop or soda Okay, here here is the problem You're going to take away from what you're there to do you go it's going to impede in who you're there to remember Okay, are you guys with me? So if I'm there if I'm doing this in remembrance of the Lord What am I really going to remember? I'm really going to remember the doritos the donuts or whatever I did the drink Of course we take what about the crackers that well, we don't get too bent out of simple crackers Do it or sometimes a still bread or actual real bread Okay, or some people do real wine some folks who like the little grape juice What have you those things we don't typically get too bent out of shape for and it's not too eventful and too memorable But something like that that would be that that'd be a little bit pushing because now what you're doing is you're taking away from the salinity and the The holiness of this all so I would I would stay away from certain items when you do it because again the focus ought to be on Christ Okay, you're not getting fooled. You're not you're not I'm a little hungry now. I'm not you know You're not trying to you know quench your thirst That's not what you're doing. You're doing this as a commemoration as remembering what christ did. Amen Amen Was the death this is a good question was a death of steven in act seven predestined by god Since the result of his death led to the believers being scattered and the gospel being preached in Judea and samaria Well a couple things Here's what we know about Steven's death Here's what we know about eventually chadwick's eventual death hopefully there's 50 60 70 80 years till his death Here's we know about my dad. Here's what we know about everybody's on the plans their death their life The bible is clear that his our days out are numbered All of our days are numbered The beginning and the end We get hung up sometimes in how a person dies not that they die, but how they die oftentimes Well, we've covered this before Who is the one that's responsible for death? Well, god is and remember he's the one that writes it out He he has determined our days So him determining our days. Does he also know how we're gonna die? Well, sure.  I'm not gonna get too far into that but in terms of steven I I would definitely lean to his death being something that god orchestrates To think about what happened to steven's death Most of us should we would love to have a death like that not to be stoned But to to be able to see and being welcomed into heaven in that regard but Jesus said that you shall be my witnesses in Jerusalem and in Judea And none of those things happen and Samaria into the rest of us none of those things happen Until this persecution arises. They're just they're kind of being content in this little locale They're comfortable But the lord want no this ain't just about Jerusalem.  Sure because also who shows up? Paul now we got paul showing up on the scene and god wants to use him When did god determine that he was going to use paul? Well paul said that's that was always in the cards He just didn't know it. And so now paul is going to take his place in ministry as well So I would say it's a safe bet to say that that was certainly without a doubt Predecy remember we talk about us having free will so does god So does god if you think you have free will fine I'm not going to fight you on that as long as you as long as you give Rightful credit to god also having free will he's got free will and his free will Is a little more freer than yours a little better than yours a little more powerful than yours And consistent as well. Amen. Amen in revelation In revelation jesus is talking to the churches If you can't lose your salvation, why does jesus say to the church if you don't repent? I will move your lampstand from his place Let's go to that passage that gets that gets brought up from time to time And he's not saying he's not speaking of salvation. Let's go to Genesis Genesis revelation One opposite direction. Uh, let's see. I'm trying to let me give me one second Okay, here it is. Here it is. I'm sorry Let's start chapter one verse 17 when I saw his feet. I fell at his feet like like a dead man And he places right hand on me saying do not be afraid. I am the first and the last I'm the living the I am the living one and I was dead and behold. I am alive for everyone. Let's drop down Verse 20 as for the mystery of the seven stars, which you saw in my right hand And the seven lamps golden lamp stands the seven stars are the angels or messengers Anglos of the seven churches and the seven lamp stands are the seven churches So the lamp stands might Is not salvation Him removing the lamp stand is him removing them as a church that actual local church not removing the church The body so he's speaking to these particular churches now do these churches represent just that church or Other churches that are like that the jury is out on that and I'll let you decide on that But in terms of him taking away the lamp stands, that's not taking away someone's salvation That's taking away them as actually being an actual church So Can you please tell me why you are so adamant against tongues? I'm not layla. I promise you I am not adamant against tongues where I am against or the faulty practice of tongues If I if this is what I would say guys if I Were in the place of paul and I had to write a letter to the church in america About their tongues. I think my letter would look just like paul's letter That's that's what I believe. I think that my letter would look like in other words We're not going to forbid tongues as long as they're true tongues And I want you to understand what it is you're doing. I don't want you running around just doing something just because That's listen. That's not us That's not who we are We are not those people that just do anything willy-nilly We are not those kind of folks that we have no we have no self-control whatsoever You have the holy spirit in you Then all of a sudden we're going to say that a manifestation of the holy spirit Is that you lose control and lose understanding? But paul says that if I pray in a tongue then my mind's not and so um That's okay. I'll get you. I'll get your other question layla. But if I if I pray I want to pray with understanding if I if I um speaking uh, This languages there has to be understanding what I said and the only examples that we see We got one ladies and gentlemen. We have one example. Now, by the way, these things are written for example We've got one example in the bible where someone speaks in these languages We know what the language is it says and then after that we get further explanation in acts too And so that ought to be that ought to be the pattern And so what we've got are a bunch of people become 2000 years later and have just upset the apple cart and changed it now We did have some folks throughout history that would jump in on these these tongues And they were always heritage. As a matter of fact, they had these different beliefs Some that Jesus is this and this and that and so forth. And so we've never had any sort of deals with this up until the early 1900s But now all of a sudden this is a big explosion. Oh, by the way, this explosion these kind of tongues that we see has also coincided with A profaning a defiling of the scriptures and the church so All right, let's go to the Next question Well, by the matter of fact, let me let me do this. Let me let me go find leila for that That's not the question she wanted. Let me go find your other question Let me find your question. Let me find your question. You said that wasn't the question you want So I'll make sure I'll I'll go back to your to the question you wanted me. I don't see it leila Where's your Okay, okay, I see it. I see it. All right, I'll get to it in just a little bit. I'll get to it in a little bit Okay Is lint an ash Wednesday biblical? No, it's not found in the bible It's just not now if you want to give up something Fine It's not it's not a biblical mandated occasion if you want to do something I I have no problem with it nor should anyone else have a problem with it Now if you think that you are mandated to do so If you and by the way, by the way The purpose of it needs to also kind of coincide with something godly But in and of itself, it's not unbiblical. It's not anti-biblical either I'm sorry. It is unbiblical meaning that it's not in the bible, but it's not anti-biblical It's not a sin, but you don't have to I don't I don't adhere to it. I don't you know, hey, it's lint Okay, fine. What are you giving up me? I might get you Almost I almost gave up coffee for today. I went half the day most of the day so far without my coffee Here's my first cup of coffee for the day. So I was struggling I was struggling too It was rough I almost layla I almost spoke in tongues too. Once I got that coffee poured. I almost spoke in tongues. I almost broke out Where are we as a church in the dispensation? We are I can tell you exactly where we are We are in This this this new stewardship that has included the Gentiles as a church We are right in between The 69th seven and the 70th seven now is are there 69 dispensations? No As a matter of fact, I don't know. I don't even I'm not one of those that will say how many Different dispensations there are for those you all that might be wondering what in the world is a dispensation We get this from the in the scriptures It's from this from the greek word or can I mean the oikonomia, which is from two words Oikos, which is house and mia, which is law. So the house law of the house rules And it's just kind of how god is dealing with us One of the things that bothers me. I mean, it just does something to me is when I hear people invent Dispensations or I hear people invent covenants Well, this is the covenant covenant of works the covenant of grace the covenant redemption Okay, well, can you I get what you're saying and I don't have a problem with you saying that as long as when you say so You're you're not trying to say this is the scriptures that goes because there is no such scriptures that says that Okay, uh, but where we are we are right smack dab in the middle of the 69th and the 70th And this is where he says when the fullness of the Gentiles comes comes in After that's done, then He's going to deal with israel israel will be dealt with in the last seven. Amen. All right. Let's go back to these questions That says we can skip one saved always saving tongues for those you guys have no idea how much How often I get bombarded with questions topics isn't that regarding those two things Regarding those two things And then and then You know what not as much as the trinity you would think more on the trinity, but not not as much But on salvation, listen, I get questions about salvation from Bartlett that If I told you at least several times an hour, I wouldn't I'm not exaggerating not exaggerating Tongues not as much women A lot women in ministry um Calling out people in the church a lot so So So I had a conversation with uh with chess chat once I forgot. I think I think it was over tongues That we don't we don't want to do tongues. We don't want to do tongues. We're not gonna do don't do don't do tongues And I said I said but but but but chess Was it brian? We get a lot of there's a lot of people that are always You guys have heard it but how many times has somebody come into the chats brand new and They have no idea what I've ever said what we talked about before So that's why So we won't do tongues again unless there's a unless there's a discussion where someone comes on board This you know face-to-face discussion would have you We won't do that again for until the next quarter Okay, but when I say tongues a q&a it won't be over tongues. It'll be over Um The holy spirit. Oh, I'm sorry the other one this way up there is is demons get that a lot get Get questions about demons or conversations about demons a lot. So I'm sorry. No gonna Darth kitty asked I I I click the button to move it. I actually click the button to delete it But Darth kitty asked what's the difference between eternal life and outer darkness Huge difference Outer darkness is kind of uh metaphorically speaking of those who do not have eternal life now Everyone is going to exist forever Everybody is going to exist forever It's just where those with eternal life go one place to be with the father. That's life Having the sun that's life those without the sun. They go into outer darkness They where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth And that outer darkness is going to eventually be tossed into the lake of fire So the difference the outer darkness what he's speaking of metaphorically speaking of hell Okay, but where we're going is the opposite. So that's the difference Okay, jeff. What's what's the what's the this has to be a part of a second question or or greater question Why is an improper preposition necessary or use that that way? I have not what are you talking? I have no idea what you're talking about. This has to this has to belong to another question So let me do this. Let me go and Um, look up look up jeff and see what other question he asked because I have no idea What you're talking about Don't you sweet almost want your email? Yeah, I have no Okay, he just put something else in let's see what that question. Okay Why why is an improper preposition used in this manner and Is the plus gen only related to the verb that follows i.e. Eos? Um before Ask a two is which verse we talked about Do you have to you have to ask me which I need to know which verse are you speaking of because I don't I have no idea Which verse you speak about Okay, so um come back with the verse in a second. I'll come back to you But I have no idea what verse you're talking about. I need to know what first you're talking about. I'll come back to you though God bless you. Do you believe Uh, jesus drink wine according to luke 734 paul said it's good for the best.  He's he's contrasting With him and john the baptist john didn't drink.  Well, he he must have He must because he says the son of man came drinking drinking. What were they telling you about what at least about Because he says this person is a they're called him a drunker. So if he's they you saw him with a Some sort of wine in his hand now I'm not going to get into the degree if it's super extra fermented If it's if if if one sip or get your drink, I might go in there or if it's just it's lightly fermented It's almost like like grape soda or grape juice He was drinking of the wine. Okay, they didn't have stores to go to get some soda Uh, so all we know they had was water different juices from trees So it could be some maybe some sort of berry drink Or wine They had milk to drink So They didn't have coffee Unfortunately I'm convinced I'm convinced that the entire world because could you imagine the apostles? Just think about this. Could you imagine the apostles having coffee? The whole world would have been saved If the apostles had coffee the whole world would have been saved, but Alas, they did not they did not so now Do I think that you wouldn't say that he was that he was ever drunk? But Jesus Jesus is he's literally saying that The son of man has come eating and drinking.   Did he ever drink? Sure? He drank he drank matter of fact He drank at the last supper. He drank here now. We don't know how often so Now some folks Jesus drank wine. Well It's not listen. We're not saying that Jesus came and he was drinking. He had a bottle in a brown paper bag That's not what we're saying Wine wine was not a sin getting drunk with it Overindulging in anything was a sin. Okay Including wine so anyway Alrighty, what does it mean to greet someone with a holy kiss? I can read things 13 12 What does it mean that the strength of Of sin is in the oh, I see I see what you did. I see what you did You you put in two questions at once. I see what you did. I see what you did What does it mean to greet someone with a holy kiss?   No, but again, it's a cultural thing There are cultures today that grow up in greek folks men greeting men with a kiss or women by, you know America no, we don't do that. We don't we don't we don't Could you imagine that greeting each other with a kiss, but it's just saying greet each other affectionately That's kind of the way you would have to take it So now listen if you want vj, if you want to bring that tradition back if you want to Institute that in your neighborhood or with your people Let us know how that goes Okay, what does it mean that the strength of the sin is in the law? Let's go to 1st Corinthians 1556 Matter of fact, don't tell us how it goes vj. Take a video Show us. I want to see I want to see that work Starting in 55. He says oh death. Where is your victory? Oh death? Where is your sting the sting of death? is sin And the power of the sin is the law you see it you kind of almost working backwards So what brought about death was sin what brought about the sin was the law power of law understanding what happens with the law because because I When I see the law as I survey the law as I try to keep the law What I find out is I can't do it and I keep sending what am I sending? I'm sitting against the law and just me in general against life in general and so that's kind of what he said There was a question though. Well, let me go. Let me let me bring back like this question though The one she wanted to ask Uh cora, what's your take on reprobates? Can you come out of that state? I believe not once you're turned over That it that's it because you choose. So What was she and she said in the king james vernacular? What say it's the well Let's go. Let's go to that passage. Let's go to romans Matter of fact, see what I have to do. Let me let me do it over on one of these. Let's go to Let's do it over here. Let me bring up the king james version And give me one second. Let's change this from that. Let's make it the king james version You'll see why in a second why I'm going to the king james version And let's go back to this passage over here. All right now. Let's go to the king james version. Where do I have that at? Where is it? Where do I have it? I got all this. Oh, here it is.  It's the exact same word Where we had 128 the same word is A document So this same word is used the document Now what it is is that let's put the word the word is just worthless unqualified disrepute well that first of all That's all of us But to say you gave somebody over to a reprobate mind This is god gave them over. He just left them as they were this that they were just passed that way You remain that way now you're let's go back to your question. Your question was Uh, can someone can someone come out of that state? Here's what we do know No No, we we haven't we haven't met that person that has that has come out of that state Without the lord doing so now in our state Previously what do they have they had they had god showing up They had either through a prophet. They had it through either different events. They had the This cat over here I heard something as this goofy cat over here and he's around here somewhere I didn't know he was in the room, but Unless it was god moving Either through some sort of sign something Even the men in the old testament they did not leave that state It's just what it really means. I'm just passing it. So if a person is a reprobate That's just a person that god has just passed over. Well, if god has passed over you there's nothing you can do about it That that said he has turned you over to that state and so you're called a reprobate Now, let me say this. I have met Some reprobates I have met some horrible people that weren't reprobates and I've met some folks that weren't as horrible Uh But they're reprobates. I have met some people that are just nasty rotten. No good people And they're there This is why when people say Cory you shouldn't say that about certain people.  Well, First of all, it's biblical too. There are a lot of reprobate rotten. No good people I'm not gonna hit the cat. Oh, he's going He's going into the restroom He's going to the restroom. Okay, so I think I'm gonna have to move him out of here. I'm gonna have to move because this our relationship is not working out Me and him being a roommate. Yes, it's just it's not working out. I'm I'm getting I'm getting the short end of the stick Clearly, but anyway, so yeah, I agree with you Layla. We are in agreement on that Neland said please please please explain what's going on in psalm 82 Let's go to psalm 82 What part of psalm 82? I mean the whole of it I said put on the stage. Let's put it on the um On the screen god takes his how much of the how much is am I reading neland? Do you want the whole of psalm 82 or just a portion of it? Help me out. Help me understand which part I'm gonna leave the tt. I'm gonna leave the cat alone. So he's in he's in the toilet right now. So I have to leave him alone Um, I want to answer that question in a second, uh, ryan. Yeah, hold on one second Let me get him. All right Here's the cat everybody. Does she all see I have it get in steak I just want Anyway, um, which Which which part of psalm 82 do you want me to cover it neland or just All okay all the all late verses all right all late verses God takes his stand in his own congregation. He judges in the midst of rulers. How long will you judge unjustly? And show partial to the wicked say la Vindicate the weak and fatherless. Hey, there's my favorite word there Brian there's my favorite word right there vindicate Vindicate the weak and fatherless do justice to the afflicted and destitute rescue the weak And needy deliver them out of the hand of the wicked They do not know nor do they understand they walk about in darkness and all all the foundations of the earth are shaken I said you are gods And all of you are sons of the most high Nevertheless, you will die like men see that the things between the sons of god And just regular men speaking on another topic that we talked about before And fall like and fall like any one of the princes arise. Oh god Judge the earth for it is you who possess all the nations now Let's back up a little bit the issue is dealing with people correctly dealing with people on maybe the basis of certain things or Based on in this in this case They were given The ability The right to judge these were not the word that's used for these Elohim's. It's not like gods He's not calling them guys.  I might let this cat out a little bit. So look what he says He says verse two. How long will you show? Will you judge? unjustly Notice the word that's used here. This word should poke show path This is how long will you judge unjustly and show partiality to the wicked say la Vindicate and now notice what he says the same word that's used here This is why I say There there was a little bit. They really want to dust up It's just a few people who don't read who don't understand who don't think who said that I was saying for myself that Because of my crimes because of what I've done that god has vindicated me that I was innocent That's not the stance that he's using right here. Is it he's not saying Vindicate the week because they're innocent He says judge the week and we think though that sometimes when we say judge Judge sometimes has a negative connotation, doesn't it? Sometimes we think that judge means something negative is going to happen No deal with them where they are and how they should be dealt with accordingly So in this case judge the week deal with the week Accordingly and the fathers they are helpless. They need you. They're not innocent There's nobody that's innocent. So he's not say help the innocent But what you guys have not done is you have failed to do justice to the afflicted and the destitute Rescue the weak and the need to deliver them out of the hand of the wicked He says drop down. He says I said you are gods And all of you are sons of the most high.  They thought that they were like gods. They thought that they were something special But they are not that they were not okay, so Anyway, just sent why are you saying? Anyway Next question Did that help uh neilan?  No, it's not No, it's not as a matter of fact We have a story of a person who died Or a parable since the parable or a story of a person who died and wanted to come back And what does jeep now?  It's literally in the bible So yeah, that's not that's not biblical at all. That's not we don't here's the thing We don't have any we've got one person that had a vision of heaven One person that had a vision of heaven That's paul paul says that I know the man such a man who was caught up the third heaven Either he didn't know if there was a vision or physically I would have to say that to be in the vision But it's felt that way Because he didn't have a glorified body you ain't going there without a glorified body if you went to heaven I don't know who you think you saw If you went to heaven and came back with that same body of yours you didn't go to heaven Because you just can't now but I I got a glimpse. Well, we know paul did And so in that regard, he's the only one that we know of no one that the only people that ever died And came back that was prior to The death barrel and resurrection of christ and the ascension there were three people that was Elijah Moses and Samuel Because they were in the boat of the dead and and those there had not been taken to heaven just yet But going to hell we don't have anybody that's done that We don't have anybody that has done that so But there's always going to be somebody that's going to and then there's always going to be the reason why you'll always have someone Say that it's because there's always going to be somebody that's going to sit and listen If people just didn't listen well then So hold one second. Uh, I just saw it. I just saw it. I just saw it Okay, hold on one second guys. Am I willing to talk to youtuber ken hoarse About the Sabbath he recently made it. Okay. I'll I'll check it out and then we'll go from there I don't I've never heard of him before but I'll I'll check it out.  Okay I'll look into it. I will I will look into it my friend and then we'll go from there Have no have no problem with it. I have no problem with that at all But uh, let me look at it first and see Would jubes for this is a good question Would jubes friend during his time of suffering be a good example of how not to exhort someone in time Yes and no Yes and no the reason why I say yes and no now obviously they weren't good to exhort to deal with jub Um because they they gave the wrong assumptions But for some people they might have given the right assumption But again jubes situation was was was a little bit different than maybe a lot of ours they weren't Horrible people in the sense that These guys were so far off because truth be told if it were us if we were one of jubes friends there We might have come through the same conclusion. Joe. What'd you do? Joe what what's what's going on joe? so But what they did was the problem with jubes friends is They began to reflect on god and what god is doing and that's where it becomes a no-no. So What The lesson is though Try not to Assume god's motives and what he's doing Okay Well, my son who was murdered at two recognized me in heaven Brian Kurt man. Listen. That's why I hope so. I I I truly hope so There's the bible doesn't say if we're going to recognize others, but I don't see a reason why we would not Can I point to unfortunately? I can't point to a scripture that says we are definitely going to recognize each other But I don't know why we wouldn't I don't know why we wouldn't rejoice at that Now as you can see, this is just me giving giving my understanding of my explanation Well, I think we don't have actually a scripture to go to the turn to say we are definitely going to know each other But we will rejoice and I think for me. I think part of that will be us rejoicing in others being there So Man, I I hope so I hope so This is a good question I struggle with complex ptsd and take cbd and thc strength to cope And guys, I'm not as familiar with all this. So guys don't don't get mad at me if I misrepresent this stuff I'm just not okay Remember all of this stuff became legal when I was doing my um federal tour They had that stuff in in prison, but The different strains and how that stuff works and this and that and yada yada yada yada As a matter of fact, my wife got something one time Some cbd something whatever And I said, I can't take you trying to get me in trouble so I would say this as long as what you're doing is not illegal is if If that stuff had always been legal in this country And didn't have a certain stigmatism Would we think the same way about it? Probably not. I don't know because some places it's not legal I mean not illegal some places. Hey is do it If you're doing it for medical reasons Then fine as long as long as what you're doing is not illegal, but I would say this I would say this And I would say this about any particular drug that anyone is taking For some sort of anxiety some sort of stress such as ptsd or what have you I would say this for any and everybody I would say if someone is doing if you're taking something Because you might be taking some something That's also can be pretty addictive You seem to get you know get hooked on pain pills and so forth or other deals, I mean medicine to deal with Mental or emotional issues I would say this I would say this Do your very best while you're using that to cope with use that as something for Make it make it your aim for that for it to be temporary In other words try to go try to move closer to god see if if you can Have a balancing act between what you're doing with this to cope and with god And I think I'm I'm confident that over time Over time you're going to find out that you'll move more away from that stuff And towards god I know of some people that have done that now They may not have the same situation that you have so I can't speak to it I can't I can't speak to what what you're going to and so and I'm not I'm a professional in that regard To say you should or should not do it and here's the legal ramification Here's the medical ramifications and so forth. I can't say that but spiritually I can speak on that Get close with him because there's nobody that I know that can take away whatever the stress Whatever the anxieties whatever even a disorder There's nobody that I know that can take that away like jesus can amen Here's another good question I work with kids with disability as a psychologist assessment behavioral management, etc By being in the field of psychology. Am I in sin? No No, even if I don't practice the anti christian parts There are christian psychologists and psychiatrists As long as you're not doing anything that violates the scriptures, you're fine And so dealing with somebody's mind helping them to understand and to cope That's fine Now, I don't know if you know if you're doing something that you shouldn't be doing but I don't In and of itself. I don't see why that's that's a problem. That shouldn't that shouldn't be a a problem at all Psych now there are some people who say you don't need to go to a psychologist. Okay You need to go to a therapist. Okay And in some cases a lot of those folks that say that they probably need to go themselves So sweetheart, you be what you can be be the best Christian who happened who is a psychologist now a psychologist was a christian you are christian Who is a psychologist and so be the best? Um that you could possibly be amen. Amen Some of these folks in this chat need to I'm kidding. I'm kidding. I'm kidding There's a lot of questions in this chat by the way guys. That's a lot of questions in this chat Let me move faster. Let me move faster Oh, I'm sorry. Jeff. Did you ever give me that that uh that deal? Let me let me find Jeff Did you ever give me the text that you were talking about? Okay, let's see if I can find it Oh x1.  Okay. So you're talking about from x1a So now let's go to your question I'll do this even though even though it's part of your assignment. Let's go to it But it's x1a for some of you guys don't know Their assignment is if you haven't done it is to find 25 observations In x1a not interpretation. So you so you pick something So for example the first observation that you might see that you will see Is this word but now you could do observations from the english Or the greek or the english and the greek doesn't matter You're going to need a uh a good bible Don't use the niv because the niv I guess you could but really I would say we're from Niv because it's more of a thoughtful thought go with the go with the king king james version new king james version in asb esv those word for words and so In that the first one you can say well the first observation that I make is the word But and what is but it is a conjunction and it is contrasting something We're contrasting what well you can't say because We don't know what we'll say it in verse seven. You can't bring up verse seven. We're just doing an observation on verse eight Okay, so they have to come up with 25 different observations now what they did Some of them I'm pretty sure Okay, this might be because the first time you do it like okay. This is a lot. This is a lot I can't find 25 separate observations. Matter of fact, how many words are there one two three four five six seven eight nine 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 and 7 30 one 32 36 words there are 36 words there And after they do their 25 observations some did 26 some did 30 After that, you know, the second assignment was for them to come back and do 25 more observations What do you see what what can you observe from the text? Um, one of the things I said you'll notice that there are the word you is used three times Three times That's an observation You can also go to the greek Now so what he's asking is let's go back to the to the question You're asking Why is an improper preposition used in the manner and is the okay So you're speaking of this last part right here Uh, and until the last of the land So you're asking so let me go back to your question. I got to keep putting up so I can see your question again Why is an improper preposition used? where you mean in the in Or are you talking? Oh you talking about the hells well Now you're asking me. I listen now. We're going to the to the super super super greek So here's what he's asking so hold on put it back on screen. So I need to memorize your question So I have to keep going back and forth Oh, okay Okay, here's why as a matter of fact as a matter of fact Jeff I actually use that in one of my observations That was one of my observations that I made because there's something a little bit more to what it don't go like Jeff Jeff is a smart christian Where it says that you will be my witnesses, but I'm giving I'm giving away answers Both in jerusalem And in all of judaea So not just jerusalem, but all of judaea Don't just stick around here in jerusalem guys get out in the streets beat the beat the pavements get out there and in samaria And even here it is and even to The remotest parts this even unto or until uh or as far as He is making this point to say that's the extent to where I want you to go Not just to foreign lands. No sir rebop. I don't want you to go to just Foreign lands. I want you to go to the entirety of the world to the that's what he says until Or as far as look at this Uh or up to And this is important what it's attached to ask her to the last of the earth So what this is saying is What is yeah, it's saying that not just I don't I don't want you to go to just china I don't want you to go to just mexico. I don't want you to go to just russia I want you to go to the last part of it In other words every square inch all of that All of that That's the point that he's making and so now How do you write that out in your observation? You'll figure it out. But that that is that's one of the ones I use by the way, there are over I think they said there are 237 observations that could be made from that 237 observations that can be made from from just that chapter All right, let me move faster. Let me move faster. Let me move faster. Let me move faster Okay, debris. Oh, I saw this earlier. Um, can you explain matthew 6 13 according to the king james version? Yeah, there there's an issue with matthew 6 13 And me put on the screen Matter of fact, let's do it over here And leave us not in in to temptation but deliver us from evil for Vine is a kingdom and the power and the glory forever and ever amen now problem ladies and gentlemen if we go over here And put it over here on this in the uh No, let's do it over here. I want to do it with the uh with the sigla with the uh What you'll notice In matthew 6 13 some versions might say as a matter of fact the greek cuts off Here it says and do not leave us into into temptation but deliver us from evil and this is where it stops off at Okay, but then we have this little mark right here. This mark indicates that there are some Manuscripts that have more than that. Okay, not a lot. There's not a lot and so Most scholars most textual critics Believe that the latter part is was added by a scribe if you go to luke notice if we go over to luke Luke 11 Notice where it ends off at it ends off there and leave us not in into temptation It does not have for thine is the power didn't have that so It's likely that that was not added. I'm that was not there to be and now one of the things we think sometimes though And this is what's funny Sometimes we say, you know how it's a sin to take away from the word of god And it is it is But you know what if it's wrong to take away It's also wrong to add and sometimes we think that because this book has it And another another translation doesn't then that translation is the one that's guilty of taking away Whereas this one is not the one that that well No, because some of the writings that we have even in the king james version weren't in some of the Earlier english versions or other language versions. So it's just all we have to do all we can do is work From the text that we have Use all of them if at all possible I like the uh the critical text over using Definitely the the majority text And definitely and I also over the the received text so Using the critical text we can kind of glean and see and the overwhelming majority of most Uh textual critics will say that yet that wasn't there in the original If you had to choose between going to william murphy's church Or jamal bryan's church for one service, which one would you choose? And you can't choose to stay home worship That is literally choosing between the two evils Which one is the least worse? I would probably go to william murphy's church I go to that church if I if I if I had to choose which one Now i'm going to get ostracized and torn apart Of course it was at the but If I go there you already know you are That would be that would be hard if I go to william murphy's church How would I go to his church? You already know what I would do there This is this is me at william murphy's church. That would be me right there with my arms crossed So All right more questions Deleting the question that I've already answered so David I don't know do the do the seven churches in the book of revelation chapter two and three reflect the history of the church I don't know uh, although churches a lot of churches are reminiscent of those those seven churches So I don't know I can't I can't it's not that clear Is he speaking about these actual churches and those actual churches only or do we glee from I think that we also gleaned from So I think that there's a lot that those churches have in common with churches today So and we have seen churches disappear But church was first baptist church or so and so was there for 400 years and now it's gone things happen The population of that city died out growled. What have you some falsely just came in to go over who knows He said What would you say is 20 observations of ax chapter one and two? Ask me for a couple of friends. I don't know. I don't know tell your friends. I don't know dutch Okay, okay um Can you explain John 121 23 and Matthew 11 13 there seems to be a contradiction. Let's go there Put up one two different John oh John one and then you said Matthew 11 Okay, let's go to John first They asked him What then are you Elijah and he said I am not are you the prophet and he answered no Then they said to him. Who are you? So asking John John are you Elijah? But then if we go to Matthew 11 For all of the prophets and the law prophesied until John and if you are willing to accept it John himself is Elijah who was to come so the question is Is John the Baptist was John the Baptist Elijah? Both of those are correct One obviously Jesus says Jesus is the one speaking in let's put it back on the screen in Matthew 11 He says John himself is Elijah who was to come But then John himself is asked are you Elijah? He says I'm not So which one is it both? He's not Elijah the prophet But he is the Elijah to come in other words coming in the power of Elijah And we did even see Elijah later on as well John dies And by the way, some folks use that to say see there's reincarnation. No He was not the prophet Elijah, but coming in the power of Elijah as a matter of fact There is let me put this on let me find it for you really quickly. I think I can find it for you There is a video that I have Ah, let's find it Yeah Type in just go to the channel and just type in is John the Baptist matter of fact, let me do this Let me I'll I'll put the link in the I'll put it in the description. I mean not in the description, but I'll put it in the chats And so this particular video Um, go to that particular video and you can see I did a video covering just that all the different nuances as well, so Okie dokie, but no it it can seem like a conflict but it's not it's not a contradiction Considering Colossians 416 what happened Uh to the letter to to the lay of notions Are you in the camp that it could be the book of Ephesians? Okay, let's go to Colossians 416 Okay Let's start in verse 15 Greet the brethren who are in Laodicea and also nympha and the church that is in her house So he's writing he's writing this letter There's a later a later a lady named nympha And the church is meeting your house when this letter is read among you Have it also read in the church of the laodiceans And you for you are free. I'm sorry for your part read my letter that is coming from laodicea. So your question was Is this the background screen? Am I in the camp that this could be the book of Ephesians known unnecessarily? Because you could you can refer to It could I'll say this way. It could be maybe maybe not. There's no way to know There's no way to know why because when we read paul's writings paul often refers to other letters that he's written When he's talking to the church of Corinth, he said I wrote I wrote you before not to associate with people with certain people Many he wrote them before they've had these conversations these dialogues before First Corinthians is not the first letter that paul writes to that church Okay We don't know how many different letters and so there are times where paul is going to refer to other letters And we just don't know and so it would be it would be just pure speculation We just we just would know so I'm not a of any camp because I don't know And if I say a word then I would have to find a scripture And I believe this If you're going to say something and you can't earn that with a scripture you might want to tread lightly Okay What do I look for in a church to belong to quarry? And we're going to cover that sometime next week of the week after probably the week after because next week is is going to be pretty Pretty busy pretty heck for me. I got something I have to have done So but what I would look for in a church is do they open up the bible? Do they read it? The person that's in the pulpit this man that's in the pulpit when you when he's covering something How well how far in depth that he's does he go? Does he just scratch the surface and then make generalizations? Does he draw a conclusion off of just a surface? Well one he's not teaching anyone else One of the other things you want to look for is when you when you go to the church Here's the question I want to I want to ask you guys this question.  I won't I promise you I won't be upset if you if you disagree or if you you know if you would say what I won't I won't be upset but Do you think by and large that the people that watch this channel That come in other words you guys whether it's 250 now things earlier 300 if it's 400 if it's 500 if it's 800 people in the chats Do you think typically the people that are in the chats? Typically want to go in depth in the scriptures and hold other folks accountable to the scriptures Just yes or no. Do you think yes people on this channel that watch and come? Do you think that you guys by and large everyone else? Wants to go want to go deeper to the scriptures And the reason I'm asking the question is if the people that come to this channel Want to delve further into the scriptures? What should the people at a church want to do? See if the people of the church who have a personal interaction with the pastor Don't want to do that That's because it's reflective of the person or the leadership of that church I said before twice.   I can't I can't come with the softball. I can't go to slow ball I gotta be in my game and if someone shows some hay man That should be the way it is at a church Matter of fact, I think that's the way it should be on a particular person's Christian channel If you got a christian channel and the chats are just litter with insults and name calling and Childishness and you know It's almost like if you were in in a in a fourth grade class and everybody was making little, you know, you know Fart jokes and burp sounds and this and that or what have you that goes to the immaturity of the kids You expect that in fourth grade you expect that in fifth grade matter of fact You really can't expect that with some high with a bunch of high school boys You don't expect that with adults and you don't expect that with christians and so I like the fact that this chat isn't like a lot of other chats You can disagree as long as you're agreeable and not name calling whatever. Hey fine. Not because if I do what you want to do, but um insults and childish behaviors and this and that and name call it no Let that be other places That's how it should be at a church if you go to church and you don't get that other people there Are inspired to go into the word Then that might not be the church you want to go to because it might be a church that's built off of and pushes emotion Now listen, you can you can tap into someone's emotion By still being biblical I made it a point that when I was leading when I was up in the pulpit I wanted people to I wanted to engender emotions And so if we if you could not cry or if you couldn't be empathetic to the situation Then hey, maybe a laugh here or there, you know, my natural Uh, personality is you know, I like humor now.  It is you pastor every day. You got some sort of anecdotal story and never in the scriptures How come how come dog on it pastor and I'm saying dog on it because the guy Corey might have said dog on How come this guy on youtube goes to the hebra and greek and you never do Tell me why Why can't you ever defend your point pastor? so But by the way that that's how it ought to be This stuff was made was given to us so that we can go into it grow in the grace and the knowledge of the lord I'm gonna you know what grace might ask you your question again. I'm asking a second question again I'll make sure because that's a good that's an important question. That is a very important question. I'll cover that Oh, man, this is a very good question. Nathan george At what point is it a different gospel?  The whole point is to go from point a to point b Not to go from not to be at point a and think about point b not to be at point a and Think wonderful thoughts and speak about point people to actually go there to be traveling there A bad gospel is a gospel that is not a gospel of repentance It's not a gospel that lifts up jesus christ It's not a gospel that speaks highly of scriptures and moves moves in reverence to the to the spirit All of those happen has to do with with the repentant heart because you're you A repentant heart is a is a heart that's ashamed of its past Okay, not ashamed of things that you came out of that but ashamed and said that I can't believe I used to do that If if the gospel if the good news doesn't preach that now the good news is simply and I think we have to Make sure that we understand what the good news is the good news is that you are simple No, good riding son of a something right And jesus ain't and he died to pay for your no good self You you five thousand fifteen cents worth of dirt person with the spirit in you Your only value is what the spirit is in you the lord paid the price that you could not pay And that you could live forever by placing your faith in christ That's the gospel if it's distorted If the jesus in that is distorted If the salvation in that is distorted does that mean what if a person believes you can lose your salvation? Is that a different gospel? I don't think so I don't I don't think so I say I don't think so Wouldn't that be a blow Wouldn't that be a blow if you thought you did now you thought too low that I don't think so though I don't think so um And that necessarily means that if there that that entails Because we're talking about salvation that entails The heart condition and if the heart condition is exactly the way it was Someone gave you some bad information someone gave you some bad news some wrong news Amen so Okay This is a good question This is a very good question Matter of fact, we're going to dedicate this question To brian l chess aka chess champ. Is it a sin? To play chess because it's somewhat glorifies war. Yes chess is a sin anyone that plays chess Is not a christian. Yeah, I said it Yeah, I said it. I gotta I gotta unsave. I have an unsaved moderator I got an unsaved moderator. No i'm kidding chess is not a sin chess playing chess is not a sin no Okay, if you think it glorifies war, that's fine. Also The bible talks about war.  So no chess is chess is fine And I'm not and I'm I can I know how the pieces move Um, if you set them up for me, I can you know kind of halfway, but yeah, I'm not I'm not a good chess player Checkers. Yeah, I can do something there chess no I am entirely too impatient By the way, have you ever seen some guys in prison play prison chess is something else Prison chess is is is a whole another thing I'm talking about the way they talk at each other It is it is amazing. No, that wasn't a troll question. That guy was asking a different question brian you Everybody don't love chess like you Prison chess is crazy I I listen I watched prison chess Never learned it because I wouldn't watch them play I'm listening talk crazy. They I mean they talk trash and this and that and halfway go to blows Prison is amazing.   Amen. Amen Let me go back go back to grace and mercy. This is a good question that she says Um, what is a biblical way to pray for someone transitioning meaning when dying someone's going from this world to the next world Because you've got two issues that are at play both possibilities one dying and going to hell Two dying and going to heaven If there's ever a time to be serious and be direct And intentional about the gospel is that make sure I so and so on for so and so mama daddy, whoever I need you. Listen, we need to make sure we have this trick when my father my father died of cancer Before he died of cancer.  And so when I went to go see him Uh, the kids and the grandkids and some other kids were in the room and I told everyone get out You have to lead everyone get out. Just give give me and daddy a minute And so I talked to him Because we've been I never get this chance again and I had to be intentional Uh, my father, uh, is was known I'll cover his story again some of the some of the time But we we needed to know I needed to know he needed to know what christ had done for him And so I had to lay it out. Here is the gospel story. This is what it was This is what it is and all you got to do daddy Is recognize your fall of nature We went over that daddy you understand how you have messed up some things in life You've done some things we talked about this before it's no big deal to him to say yeah I've messed up. I've done this thing. What if I the best is I could but daddy the best that you could Measured in no way shape or fashion it did measure up at all it meant nothing and so Him understanding that then understanding what jesus did and his death on the cross was the blood being paid The debt being paid that was required and if you trust that he did that And you believe that you have faith in that then you can be saving so gave him some time to kind of contemplate and think Think about it and he goes to crying And then he places his faith in christ You have to be intentional, but then let's just say that we're not even talking about a salvation But they're just going What you want to pray for is that also that the person can be as as comfortable and at peace But also more importantly though or just not more but just as important the family Because sometimes families act as though that no one else has ever died. This is the first time it's happening They don't know what to do and I get that you have to let people mourn You cannot tell people how to mourn which way to mourn that's not no you don't do that You don't tell people how to grieve oftentimes people well in tension well meaning people Give some awful advice when someone is grieving when they're going through something they'll say things like If you lost a child Well, it's okay. The lord the lord wanted in the lord this night or whatever you can get another one They mean well, but they say some dumb things Equally when someone is passing and so all you want to do the the main prayer is that after salvation Is that everyone can see christ in this some sort of way that the lord will be glorified And then after that that there will be peace Amen so Alrighty That's a very good question because it happens in everybody's life What impact do you think church clicks have on church? It's it's it's going to be hard to get rid of Church clicks it really is you know, you kind of huddle up and group up with people that you like But they can be harmful, especially if the clicks involve people who are Kind of heavily involved in the church church leadership Right the pastor has his favorites. It's got his got his buddies or the pastor's wives way, so They can be harmful because we're not supposed to do that. We're not supposed to have any sort of favoritism towards one person or the other But let's just be honest also sometimes folks just don't get along with everybody else You could have you can have a hundred remember church or a 50 member church or a 200 member church and everybody gonna get along sometimes The issues that we face isn't about the issues It's about how we deal with the issues because you're gonna face a whole lot of just Junky stuff in life, right? And sometimes it's not that god needs to fix it It's just how god god wants to see how you are going to behave And respond in that mess sometimes god just wants to see what you're gonna do Well, I gotta fix this. No, you ain't gotta fix nothing.  Well, what's going on brother? How you doing? Okay, I said he's been saying this for for a while. Let's uh, can you give an ex-general commentary on the second Second king sick. Wait a second. I shouldn't open this up Isiah I shouldn't answer this question. Look at this. This is listen. This is a long question. This is a long question I should have ignored this question Can you give listen this question guys an ex-general commentary on second king six 24 through 33 That's 10 10 verses Looks like nine, but it's 10 the 24th councilman as well as 10 verses and a little bit on the following chapter chapter seven Like you like a seminary professor game do write this do you want to type? single space typed You said I'm sorry. I pulled a I pulled a jet today. You sure did Lord, let's go to it. Let's go to it. Let's go to it. Let's let's Wow second kings And I may have an out Have we covered this yet? Have we could oh no, we haven't we haven't gotten her yet. We haven't gotten to see her to make a video. No, I'm not gonna make a video I have too much to do so. I couldn't make I normally that would have been a good a good out Huh to say I tell you what I'll make a video about this and then and then make a video in three months Now it came about after this that benedot king of arum Gathered all his armies and went up in beseech samaria. There was a great famine in samaria and behold they Oh, oh, wait a second. No, wait a second. I can tell you about this I can take matter of fact.  This is also fulfilling something. Let's let's let's let's go back to it. I'm getting excited about this There was a great famine in samaria and behold they beseeched it until a donkey's head was sold for 80 shekels of silver And a fourth of a of a cob of dove's dung pigeon poop For five shekels that's a bad that is a bad famine. That's what that's what you guys are selling As the king of isra was passing by on a wall a woman cried after him saying Help my my lord. Oh king. He said if the lord does not help help I'm sorry if the lord does not help you from where shall I help you From the threshing floor or from the wine press and the king said to her What is the matter with you and she answered this woman said to me Give your son that we may eat him today And we will eat my son tomorrow. So we boiled my son and ate him pretty bad, huh? Uh, and the next day she says give your son that we may eat him But she has hidden her son because she loved her son. You didn't love yours When the king heard the words of the woman he tore his clothes Now he was passing by on the wall and the people looked and behold he had He had sack cloth beneath his body Then he said may god do so to me and more so if the head of a lyche of the son of chef That remains on him today Now elisha was sitting in the house and the elders were sitting with him and the king sent a man From his presence, but before the messenger came to him. He said to the elders Do you see how this son of a murder has sent to take away my head? Look when the messengers come shut the door and hold the door shut against him Is not the sound of his master's feet behind him while he was while he was Excuse me still talking with them behold the messenger came to him down to him and said Behold this evil is from the lord. Why should I wait for the lord any longer? So then let's go to chapter seven verse one Then elisha said listen to the word of the lord thus says the lord got tomorrow about this time a measure of fine flour Will be sold for a shekel and two measures of barley for a shekel in the gate of samaria the royal officer Of whose hand the king was leaning answering said man of god and said behold The lord should make windows in heaven. Could this thing be then he said behold you will see it You will see it With your own eyes, but you will not eat of it. And so what happens That person actually dies. What does this lead up to this is why I get excited about this story Because what it leads up to is now there are four leprous men Well, what's happening? There's a whole lot happening in this story. Do you remember earlier? This is right after naming was healed of his leprosy Naming was healed of his leprosy Then what happens ghazi? Elijah's servant says I want some of that He ain't gonna ask this man for any money Elijah said as the lord lives whom I serve I won't take any money, but Elijah says as the lord lives I'm gonna go after it so both of them invoke god's name But only one of them was serving Elijah I mean ghazi knew better seen all these wonderful things at the hand of this man of god And goes out and concocts this plan To lie in the name of the lord and to steal Now we'll get to this family in just a second So what happens was after he gets some he goes and says the people from the school the prophecy We need some food some clothes and this and that or whatever some money And so naming he's all too happy to do so naming gives him some stuff Before and sends his men to help him pick stuff back when he before he gets to there. He says y'all stop I got I'll I'll take from here. He goes and hides the stuff then Elijah says. Hey, where you been? God said I ain't been nowhere. We talking about I've been right here Did you not did my heart not go with you? And is it time for you to receive? Gold and silver and clothes and male servants and female servants and land Well, hold up. Wait a second. I didn't get all that. I just got a few little dollars here and there and some clothes. What do you And so the the the leprosy that naming had on him was now pronounced on ghazi and his family And notice what it says forever Forever. Hey, I don't know if you know this but forever is quite a long time Yeah, you've been bored for a long time. Well forever is longer than that. You've been stuck in a bad situation Well forever is longer than that. You've ever been in prison for a long time Forever is longer than that and the effects not just on you because it would be better if it was just you But it's also on the people who you love your family Now you've got After that the backup of that comes this Famine now there's this fighting this battle With aram remember naming is the is the leader of them Well, what happens? These four leprous men who by the way worded leprous get their money and get their food from at the gates But it's a famine they ain't getting no food. So what do they go and show up at the camp of aramians? And the lord Remember it's a famine going on the lord causes the sound of these four leprous men I believe this is ghazi and his sons to sound like an army coming So there's there's a famine. There's bewilderment. There is there is Disarray these four men and it sounds like it sounds like That's something bad is happening that they're that the king has hired these assassins and they take they take off They go in and they raid the camp and they go hide What are they taking go back and read the story they have taken gold And silver and clothes They come back And somebody who I think is ghazi says then this is me give an interpretive license We're doing something wrong Doing the exact same thing that the ghazi did leprous as well because there's just planted in these leprous men in the middle of the story Ghazi with his leprosy. He cannot be where he was before Ghazi cannot be in the same place that he was before because he's got leprosy the rules of leprosy says Nope, can't be there. Sorry got to go now I want you to jump over to second kings Chapter eight. Let's go to second king chapter eight Now Elijah spoke to the woman whose son He had restored a life saying arise and go with your household and sojourn Wherever you can sojourn for the lord has called a famine and it will even come on the land for seven years So the woman arose and did according to the word of the man of god And she went in her household and sojourned in the land of philistines for seven years at the end of the seven years The woman returned from the land of the philistines And she went out to appeal to the king for her house and her house and her field now now listen Listen, here is this famine guys. That's happening She leaves and she comes back.  Well one goofy lady is other ladies smart.  I'm different so After the seven years She comes back because now this is the same woman whose boy. She had the gate, uh, elijah had restored Who was there when elijah saved this boy? Y'all remember ghazi was there. He knows better ghazi now has leprosy He can't be in the place now. We just read though that four lepros men were at the gate and they turned themselves over to The arameans and the lord caused these four lepros men to walk Cause their feet to be like a like a bunch of soldiers coming they take off and they report it Now we come full circle Verse four Now the king was talking to ghazi the servant of the man of god saying please relate to me all the great things that elijah has done As he was relating to the king how he had restored to life the one who was dead Behold the woman whose son he had restored to life Appealed to the king for her house for her field and ghazi said my lord oh king This is the woman and this is her son human lives restored to life when the king was asking the woman She related to him so the king appointed her a certain officer saying we're storing all of herself now. Here's the question guys Here's the question What sticks out What sticks out in this story? Specifically to you isaac you ask the question. What sticks out in this story? Something wait a second The king who is the king talking to in this story? Who is the king talking to in this story? This guy has given all these these these war stories about what elijah has done Who's telling the king what elijah has done? Do y'all do y'all remember? ghazi ghazi is telling the king this story question Question how in the world is ghazi back? Well Sometimes forever ain't forever Sometimes forever don't last as long as we think or it seems Because guess what there is in god there is forgiveness And so here we see ghazi Who I believe learned his lesson with during this famine Because it the deal is sometimes you just don't know how long god is going to give you to make it make it right to make amends And so the very same thing that ghazi failed at he was brought back to face that Temptation again, and so now ghazi Um, what he sent it taking gold and silver and clothes The first time by lying this time gold and silver and clothes was his issue But this time he passed the test took seven years from the pass the test for him to have a retest But he took it and passed it and he's restored and restored graphically Amen So I think what we're seeing here. We said a lot of everything's happening here one that the prophecy to um That king is going to die to the person that doubted Elijah what he said that person will see the restoration of the famine in and he won't get to enjoy it He'll die. We see ghazi restored so anyway I love that particular story. I absolutely love that story. So that's me covering that story. So anyway, all right ladies and gentlemen, it is time to move on it has been two hours and 51 minutes. So therefore We have to move on Wait a second. Let me do these last two I gave you Oh, okay j double says how long between milk and meat in terms of you growing in your walk There is no set time just get from the milk to the meat as quickly as possible That's going to be dependent on you if you want to keep drinking milk for the rest of your spiritual life Well, then you'll drink milk for the rest of it, but if you want to eat milk meat, it's okay Matter of fact, I think that here is the right place to do it We'll end on this He says I was in Dallas for worth airport and I tried collard greens and it was delicious. I didn't know about them No collard greens not a southern thing collard greens is a I don't know why you don't why you don't eat those in Iowa They got country folks in Iowa so what That can't okay All right, Jason. I got he says he's still blocked that that can't be That can't okay. I'll fix it. I'm looking at somebody sent something said that they were still blocking. They're not blocked. They're not they're not blocked We'll figure it out in the meantime.  What are collard collard greens? Collard greens collard collard greens Collard greens Turnip greens mustard greens any kind of greens. Amen. Anyway guys, love you all so much I look forward to seeing you all tomorrow. The lord says the same in the meantime. Be blessed


Two great companies coming together, Truex and Gimbal. Two different areas of the business, one focused on opt-in television, the other on commerce. The rebrand has been a fantastic opportunity to tell our story and connect to TV. And because we have an all opt-in business, it's been amazing to be so pro-customer, which is what we're all about. AdTech is a very interesting space. I think it gets pigeonholed sometimes. But advanced media is really a very special place to be right now. If you're consumer-focused, you get an opportunity to really advance toward what the consumer is looking for. And I think we bring that to the table in spades rather than just taking a technology-focused approach. We've taken on a very ambitious agenda. We have been focused, certainly, from the Truex side on attention for a long time. But our agenda is really about optimizing time, attention, and privacy. And we very recently just finished a big consumer study where we talked a lot about the fact that consumers are actually willing to give you more or not last, add format-wise, information, et cetera, if we can be more relevant and obviously give them more value. So that's what we've been focused on in our composition and value exchange. The IRL opportunities have been fantastic with clients and colleagues. And I will say last night I had an opportunity to do a party in the metaverse for a nonprofit called Creative Spirit at the same time. So I've had an opportunity to be in Cannes in multiple universes.


Netflix has a new movie streaming and you know what that means one more exclusive for you to avoid watching and saving yourself Several hours of your life. I however did not and I guess I can be the warning once again for people out there There are better things to spend your time doing. Don't watch leave the world behind Unless you want a miserable experience that has no satisfying conclusion. Let's talk about it Leave the world behind as a Netflix joint.  You're wrong This was a great thing. Netflix is knocking it out of the park. They're not I Hate these movies. I only watch them because my wife Continues to convince me that they're gonna be good. She'll go on social media and see some of the actors talking about it Oh, there's Julia Roberts saying what a wonderful movie. This is there's Mahershala Ali saying I had a great time in this picture You're gonna love it and then they have all these influencers saying watch this movie.  I don't even want is it a trope I don't want this new this new like Trend that directors or editors are doing where they put movies in acts or in parts or in chapters This happened recently with Napoleon This happened recently with the new Hunger Games film and again with leave the world behind It's told in four acts or five. I don't know.  Did they forget about it?  I see this more and more and I don't understand It's this this new trend that they're trying out It doesn't bring anything to the table at all tangent aside this movie without giving anything away It follows a couple that lives in New York and they want to get away from it all Julia Roberts character notoriously hates people She doesn't want anything to do with them. I don't remember the names of anyone except for I think Ruth is one of the people We run into mainly remember that one because her names yelled out loud a lot and I still might be wrong on that It doesn't matter. It's Julia Roberts and Ethan Hawke. They're married. They have two kids. They take a vacation They rent this luxurious house out in the woods away from society and civilization Kind of redundant. I know whatever there's a beach nearby that they're gonna head out to and it's just a very Gorgeous location for them to get away from it all and get away. They do for a little while until the owners show up That's right. This family, which is I guess it's just really a father and a daughter They show up the teenage girl the Mahershala Ali character. Let's see his name is GH Scott according to IMDB. Oh, and I guess Julia's name is Amanda Ethan's name is clay. None of this matters, but I'm giving you some information that you can do nothing with They show up at the house.  There's some sort of a cyber attack. We think can we come in now granted This is not what they say at first It takes a painstaking amount of time to get this information out Because everything takes a painstaking amount in time of time in this two-plus hour Borfest the whole movie is built upon a mystery of what's going on outside our little area Is there a cyber attack?  Are there aliens? Are there is some natural force or unnatural force? What is going on and what it is is so lame So boring so pedestrian that I just don't even care to get excited about anything going on and the the basic scares or the basic tension is Nothing more than several scenes of our lead characters running away from objects as they crash It's so lame. Now positives Cinematography is fantastic. It looks really good. There's some beautiful shots Especially during a beach scene where this giant ship careens into the beach looks fantastic There's also some weird camera shots going on this guy's really having fun playing with Moving the camera around like it's a drone on steroids. The things weaving in and out of houses It's kind of going for a poor man's David Fincher, but not pulling it off in a in a smart cool slick Executed style instead. It just comes off as like I'm trying to be different Constantly and it's happening so often that you could almost you feel a little dizzy. Hope you don't have vertigo This is not a place. You'll want to go outside of the cinematography. The music's pretty standard, you know, some some drums some some Loud booming Christopher Nolan-esque sound effects here and there nothing great as for the characters I hate almost all of them like even Scott Even Scott who's the most likable is so vague with everything and it takes an hour to get any sort of information out That I just want him to stop talking all together.  Her kids are garbage. Her youngest daughter just wants to watch friends That's the subplot of this movie that they play out for a long time She's just obsessed with friends and wants to watch it so she can connect to people that she likes And then the teenage boy is just kind of whatever he there's not much to most of these characters They're one-dimensional and they're just kind of lame Kay bake Kevin Bacon is in this a tiny bit. He's a prepper He kind of had a feeling something was going wrong and he's gonna be nothing more than your stereotypical Backwoods Like conspiracy theorist dick Just to sum it up The concepts in this movie are things we've seen so many times from shows like The Walking Dead to even Lost and Just countless other films and shows where oh as soon as you know Things start to break down in the world people become untethered and they go crazy And it's all about them and no one else and there's guns pointed at each other and Humanity breaks down so fast Okay, great. What else do you have? The problem with this movie is it tries to have these lavish moments where big things happen and smash into it Our protagonist run away in front of a green screen. It looks pretty good But they they're very short-lived.  There's a tornado our characters run away from it There's a bigger tornado our characters run away from it. There's the biggest tornado, right? It's all about the spectacle and the spectacle is fantastic And in between that you just have kind of cartoonish characters doing silly things fighting with each other There's some drama. There's actual stakes. There's likeability. There there's fun characters There's a lot of great moments And it moves very fast even if it is two hours. I don't know how long twisters. It's probably two hours This movie in contrast has only a couple of these large moments. They're very very quick And in between them are the most boring tedious character moments ever By awful characters that you don't like or want to spend time with Now there are some decent Horror elements, but it's not scary at all. No scares. Don't go into this thing And it's a scary or even chilling movie in the slightest. It's not But there's just like one or two moments where it's like, okay, this is kind of intense for five seconds And then it's done The movie as a whole feels like one third Of a film Which is ironic because it's broken into four acts These four acts feel like they're the first part of an actual movie like they were building up to something But then they didn't give us a middle or an ending instead.  Not that I care that much. I'm just happy it's done But this is the worst kind of film you can watch because it's got just enough to keep you dangling You might fast forward some of the dialogue because it's so lame But you still are a tiny bit invested in the conspiracy and the mystery. Why are there animals everywhere? What's going on with all of this? But then it just boom ends on such a dumb note And yeah, I just uh, nothing about this really worked for me. I was frustrated with it I was annoyed and once again my wife has tricked me with her with her womanly charms And convinced me that adam, this is the time they get it right and I know there's there's some good streaming straight to streaming exclusives on netflix I've talked about them, but as a whole it's pretty much a dump on all of these platforms Okay, those are my thoughts. I think I said everything I need to without giving anything away leave the world behind Another netflix gem streaming right at your fingertips if you have the app.  Maybe you liked it. Maybe you had a good time Good on you. I envy you wish I did instead. I wasted two hours Please like the video if you had a good time Subscribe if you haven't I post tons of movie reviews Rows rants live streams each and every week.  I always say patreon Maybe become a patron at patreon.com slash adam does movies There's just a one dollar tier. There's a five a ten It goes up quite a ways but with it you get different perks and I would really appreciate the support It's a a hobby of mine. It's a passion of mine.

Maharashtra is the seventh state we are entering in future. You tell your children that actually rivers are flowing, nobody will believe that they think river means sand, they don't think river means water. This is our time to express that we are not a frivolous generation, we are a responsible generation of people, we will do the right things that have to be done. Just use the phone and make the missed call and that's not enough, entire Maharashtra should call.


The International Soil Moisture Network, ISMN, is a global network of soil moisture measurement sites that provides access to data from multiple sources. It serves as a centralized data hosting facility where in situ soil moisture measurements from operational networks and validation campaigns are collected, harmonized and made available to users. The ISMN also stores important metadata such as soil water measurements from different depths, meteorological variables, precipitation and soil temperature and other relevant information. This data is accessible via a graphical user interface and can be queried according to common standards for data and metadata. The ISMN currently includes data from 19 networks and over 500 stations located in North America, Europe, Asia and Australia. The time period spanned by the entire database ranges from 1952 to the present, but most datasets were acquired within the past decade. The database is rapidly expanding, meaning that both the number of stations and the time period covered by the existing stations are still growing. Thus, the ISMN is becoming an increasingly important resource for validating and improving satellite-derived soil moisture products and studying climate-related trends.
