James ~ 3:10 to 4:17

welcome to the Shepherd's chapel Network family Bible study hour with Pastor Arnold Murray wisdom is understanding god's word pastor Murray's unique teaching approach brings God's Word alive with meaning as he takes you on a chapter by chapter verse by verse study of God's letter to you the Bible and now here is pastor Arnold Murray good day to you god bless you say welcome to the Shepherd's chapel welcome to this family Bible study are back at our father's word the book of James James in the Greek is the equivalent of Jacob in the Hebrew the father of the 12 tribes and chapter 1 verse 1 of James is addressed to the 12 tribes scattered abroad so this is one of those books that you're definitely as always have three levels and we're going to try to cover all three of them for whatever ear hears it will fall on that level in this fourth chapter we're talking about the tongue a man's tongue is one of the most the toughest things to control that there is because sometimes it goes into action before the brain kicks in gear and that's called a ratchet jaw and certainly you want to be able to spot a ratchet jaw and be able to mark them well because you'll never learn anything from them and just as a small as we close in the last lecture just as a small fire in a deep forest will start a huge raging inferno soaked in Lies come in from the tip of a tongue it can really false information can cause a lot of problems such as in the last lecture I had mentioned that Rahab was called a harlot and then I'm miraculously turned that over to Hagar I mean now that takes some doing but when you've got a super teacher that can happen say so always check your teacher out naturally it is Rahab and she was no harlot she was a businesswoman and unfortunately derived a reputation from man God has never called Rahab a harlot only men did because of their jealousy because she could she made better linen than they did anyway the tongue can mislead even by accident if you're not careful so always try to control that we'll pick it back up in chapter 3 verse 10 a word of wisdom from our father let's go with it first ten reads out of the same mouth proceedeth blessings and cursings my brethren these things ought not so to be that just shouldn't happen you if you are a mature adult and you are a purveyor and of course what is the subject here it's concerning teachers being a master teacher or not and churches it should not be in a church okay just there's no room for that verse 11 that they fountain send forth at the same place sweet water and bitter no it's all it's going to be the same okay twelve can the fig tree my brethren bear Halle Berry's question either a vine figs so can no fountain in both yield salt water and fresh it's just not going to happen this is how you can always judge a person by listening to them about five minutes and weigh what they say with understanding be slow to answer and you will learn a lot about that person and because God gives you the gift of discernment if you follow him and you will know immediately from which it's sweet or sour whether it's truth or fiction is the actual meaning verse 13 who is a wise man now listen carefully who is a wise man and endued with knowledge among you let him show out of a good conversation his works with meekness that's humility of wisdom and and so it is do you know how do you know how you can tell this it's real easy to spot now you can spot a person that has wisdom and humility and that wisdom naturally is in the Word of God with a clear understanding of the manuscripts of the Scriptures you know how you can tell what a wise person is they will never never never take credit for the word themselves they will always the subject is a master teacher they will always give credit to Almighty God do you know why because God is the author it is God's Word it's not ours so naturally a master teacher with wisdom bringing forth the Word of God will always give God the credit you can count on it that's an ace in the holes for spotting a good teacher wisdom true wisdom wisdom from Almighty God verse 14 but if you have bitter envying and strife in your hearts glory not and lie not against the truth that's the Lord what's the truth two lords the word that is the truth and when you start twisting the word around you're twisting him around that's not intelligent if you want to get your gourd thump that's a good way to do it well I just wanted to try that little thing out well you better try it out in your own mind and put a little fleece out concerning it there by that I mean give it a little test before you lay it on somebody else then that because when you lay it on somebody else that makes you a false teacher God corrects false teachings verse fifteen this wisdom descendeth mmm not from above but is earthly sensual and devilish in other words strive in ving trouble it doesn't come from above let me say it again you do not get it from God's Word you get it from simply fleshly lust personal feelings well it just hurt my feelings well tough stuff okay that can happen sometimes stick with God's Word stick with the truth I don't care whether it offends you or not you stay with truth and be blessed because that's the only way you'll ever have blessings from God is to teach his truth giving him the credit and not adding anything fleshly or from below but teach that that is from above that meaning from your father verse 16 for we're in being and strife is there is confusion and every evil work all you're going to have is commotion peace of mind comes from loving Almighty God accepting the son and living this word that brings you a peace of mind because why well your eternal bound you've you've got heaven made an eternity of peace of blessings of riches of understanding I mean how fortunate can you be to be blessed in that light that's having it made so don't waste your time with envy and strife and confusion in this fleshly old world because all flesh is going to be gone at the seventh trump verse 17 but the wisdom that is from above we're from above is first pure then peaceable gentle and easy to be intreated full of mercy and good fruits without partiality and without hypocrisy in other words there's no wrangling or or wavering it's always straight own simplicity as Christ would teach it easily understood you know many might say well why is it you have so many children below ten years old even that enjoy studying chapter by chapter and verse by verse because it's simple if you will throw a throw out all the old retrack retreads from recaps of this religion that religion and something else traditions of men that make void the Word of God and simply listen to the teachings of Christ the true word from above children enjoy it they love it why because it gives them it gives them direction common sense and God's blessings it doesn't get much better than that how precious it is to be loved of Almighty God and receiving His blessings verse 18 and the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace of them that make peace the subject is teachers and when teachers so peace it will bring peace it will if those that wish to rabble-rousers will not be interested in peace what because if you give God all the credit there's no room for someone to selfishly want to be a bigwig okay because only our Father is on the throne with the son doesn't need a man there and the word flows pure and simple and the pattern of truth understanding and sensibility flows forever in the minds of the people over the buds of the mind that won't that peace of mind which comes only through Christ getting a subject as teachers and churches verse chapter 4 verse 1 from whence came Wars and Fighting's among you how did that happen come they not hence even of your lusts that war in your members in other words all that trouble you have in that congregation it's true didn't come from God better you don't understand I've got to be the most important oh do you how about letting father's word be the most important how about letting our father why don't you love him and understand he's what's important verse to you lust and have not you kill and desire to have and cannot obtain you fight and war yet you have not because you ask not well well now wait a minute what do you mean ask you got asked the father asked him for peace ask him for understanding and seek it in his letter of love that he has written to you whereby with flowing and understanding it unfurls itself and your very mind giving you that peace of mind and stability that one means that's what a church should have in this world you are always Satan will always try to destroy a good work don't ever let that happen it is the responsibility of the congregation to close the hedge teach the truth and bless let God bless the people verse 3 you ask and receive not because you ask amiss that you may consume it upon your lust your self-righteous hypocritical important son your own little lusts to be somebody something you don't ask for the real truth and the blessings of God that flow and give God the credit not yourself God the credit for bringing forth that truth and don't ask just for self pleasure to say Bobbo I I did this that's mine no it isn't it belongs to our Father always and I do mean always first for ye adulterers and adulteresses the ancient manuscripts drops the word adulteress is only adulterer and it means an idolatry a teacher that is supposed to teach God's Word and and not be an idolatry Ching false teachings that's what it's talking about no you not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God you got to understand that what what world is he talk with this world age you know it's good to have street smarts oh that you know what's happening out on the street but better to be wise enough even with the Smiths street smarts to know you don't want any part of that but it does give you a understanding of what the people are going through but the the if you're a friend of this world a lot of preachers will do that it'll be alright long as you come in and you come to church and bring your money and put it in the till well you'll be blessed by who by the world not by God you have to you have to be familiar and well-founded in the Word of God to understand the love that brings forth from him and in yours in return that's just the way it is and our Father is so patient with his children but I guarantee you he does not want his children to be a friend of the world and an enemy to him that's not why he created us as it's written in the last verse of chapter 4 in the great book of Revelation he created everything including us for his pleasure if you're a friend of the world in his enemy that does not pleasure him he's jealous and has a right to be jealous for a child that will go the way of the world verse 5 do you think that the scripture saith in vain the spirit that dwelleth in us left us to envy do you think that that that way you know this this comes forth and and I like to know what's in the beginning and Revelation chapter six you're not going to have it listen to me verse five listen to it way back in the beginning this is when Noah and his children were being tempted by the fallen angels verse 5 of chapter 6 the book of Genesis in the beginning and God saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually that's flesh you got to watch that my friend that's what he's talking about do you think the Scriptures teach that absolutely not but they do forewarn you of what flesh can do to you or the ways of the world can do to you if you enjoy that sort of thing hey have a good trip being an enemy of God doesn't endear you to him so you're cut off you've got no blessings maybe your life documents that verse six but he giveth more grace wherefore he saith God resisteth the proud but giveth grace unto the humble that's the way it is grace is love and understanding and blessings and success peace of mind heaven bound eternal life all those things right in your pocket to go with it it's to love him don't fight God it's a losing battle and to chase after the the ways of the world makes you what an enemy of God I cannot imagine who would want to be an enemy of the Living God I know one that is it's Satan and I don't think anyone wants to be in his camp verse seven submit yourselves therefore to God that's to our Father resist the devil and he will flee from you and that's how it is do you know something Christ gave us power over all of our enemies and in the great book of Luke in chapter 10 verse 18 gave us power over every enemy that's why Satan will flee from you if you order him out in the name of Jesus it's dangerous for him he is in danger he is afraid of you this is why I can't imagine how a good solid Christian founded in the Word of God would ever be afraid of Satan because he shakes in his boots if you exercise the power and the authority that God has given you to exercise the rights and privileges of being a Christ man Christian the old devil and all his little demons will just they'll run from you that's why it isn't well that's a real man or woman of God has no problem getting rid of the evil spirits for that reason they tremble verse 8 draw 9 to God good advice and He will draw 90 years it's wonderful cleanse your minds you sinners and purify your hearts you double-minded you you that waver around waiver this way in that way and like blowing in the wind like a reed shake and rather than being solid and straight on gear up with the word of God in your mind whereby you do draw well how do I draw nigh to God he sent you this letter that's what this letter is all about is knowing how to be pleasing to him for by he can please you whereby he can bless you and to have the blessings of God is an awesome thing talk about power endurance and being blessed that does it you know man flesh man is the same that's why I wanted to go all the way back to Genesis chapter six nothing new Under the Sun so how long does it take to learn a lesson six thousand years or can you sharpen up by just listening to the very word of God that brings that atonement being with him drawing you nearer to him and he nearer to you how blessed that it is let's go with the next verse verse 9 be afflicted and mourn be wretched and mourn if you want to and and weep let your laughter be turned to mourning and your joy to heaviness 10 humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord and he shall lift you up he always will do you understand that's a promise and it is there and it he will always do this humble yourself and he will lift you up give God the credit for the credit is due do you know something he's in charge he's the judge he's the Creator he's the boss of all things so why wouldn't you humble yourself in his sight if you want his blessings if you want his love 11 speak not evil one of another brethren watch your tongue he that speaketh evil of his brother and judges his brother speaketh evil of the law and judge it the law but if thou judged the law thou art not a doer of the law but a judge you know now wait just a moment I would think that would be bring about a heap of hurt if you become a judge whining well we've got one judge our judges the Heavenly Father well you don't understand brother I'm a special emissary of the Living God and I have the right to judge oh well where's that written because it's only written then we have one judge so it would mean that you are trying to take God's place and that's the way God looks at it and if you ever want your Gord thump real good just set yourself up and start judging well this brothers isn't as brother than this bro now that has nothing to do with spiritual discernment and protecting your own safety and the church but don't judge people judgment is judging whether someone's going to heaven or hell you don't know ultimately when a person could have a miracle change simply by loving the Living God even aconite can be changed from a child of the devil to the child of the Living God by loving the Lord Jesus Christ so what are the most dangerous things that man can for take upon him put upon himself is to decide to be a judge of people you know I've just will judge everyone you'd be kidding yourself and you'd be setting yourself up you're getting on God's toes because there's only one judge and that's our Heavenly Father he does not like to be crowded in that respect one of the greatest sins is to judge people that's that's written God doesn't like it and therefore all you're responsible for is taking this letter the Word of God living it as best you can none of us are perfect and and hope and pray that that it rubs off on the Brethren that you can share that truth giving God the credit and the do and letting God be our Heavenly Father because regardless of what you set your mind as or is letting God be God he's going to be God to us in the book there's nothing you can do about that other than kid yourself and and so it is that our father is on the throne you know do you know who the judge of judges is it's written in Matthew chapter 10 verse 28 this is this is why you don't never want to try to judge yourself listen to it and fear not them which kill the body that your flesh body but are not able to kill the soul but rather fear him that is able to destroy both soul and body in hell that's what your father can do he is the judge you do not want to cross him and what this means is you know do you understand what was said there from Matthew 10 is that your soul turns into nothing he can destroy a soul he can blot it out you are never remembered anymore you do not exist he spoken your soul came into being from nothing and he can speak and your soul goes into nothing again there's nobody going to shed a tear for you because they won't remember you even existed that's the kind of judge he is very final it's always best to be a friend of God rather than a friend of the world however the choice is yours always has been it always will be again I don't I do not know how it could be made more important do not set yourself up as a judge we have won and he is quite capable next verse please and verse 12 there is one lawgiver who is able to save and to destroy we just read about it who are thou that judgeth another who and whirl do you think you are you know he is one that he is one that can not only cause the flesh body to die if he so chose you know not new to many people need help in that they always arrange it themselves but one way or the other whether breaking health laws accidents and so forth but he can if he sews wants to snuff he can snuff but the important thing is that he is the judge that can cause your soul to perish beloved that is serious because you could have had an eternity of peace of love of understanding and have seen this beautiful world put back in its original form where everything is perfect what a beautiful place to be with the firmament back where it was no more storms the earth watered each night no no dry spells no droughts earth watered each night baidu for what is sufficient to have fertile ground all around the world North Pole South Pole east and west what a beautiful thing you don't want to miss that and that's what you're flirting with when you try to judge and take the place of God that's what I do what you're doing you don't want to go there because you're only a child of God God will still be God yah they will be yah of a and that's why he would call himself in the etymology of his name comes from I am that I am because he is you don't ever want to try to question that and our change it verse 13 to continue go to now are you come on now ye that say today or tomorrow we will go into such a city and continue there a year and buy and sell and get gain with will really will have it made you're gonna leave God out of the equation because if God wills what brother you don't understand a lot of the preachers say if you only pray that God's will then you're weak and I tell you if you pray without God's will you're a little bit sluggish okay sada SHhhh and I'm because that's stupid our Father is in control never leave him out of the equation especially if you're one of his elect if you're one of his elect he has he has plans for you and hopefully he can use you that you are pliable like not old hard firm clay that cracks and breaks at every touch but that is pliable and that God can use you and form you and shape you to bring peace to this world into the minds of people whereby they can enjoy that wonderful heaven bound trip so yeah we're just taking over we're going plan we're going down there and we're going to take the world over make we're gonna get rich 14 whereas you know not what so beyond them the moral you don't know what tomorrow brings for what is your life what is your soul belongs to God all souls belong to God exists Ezekiel 18 verse 4 you don't give your soul to God he's got it okay it is even a vapor she's like a mist that your very being it listen to him it's like a mist and appeareth for a little time and then vanishes away vanish it the way so you want to be careful about leaving God out of the equation of your life let me put it a little different way you don't want to go anywhere without God 15 for that you ought to say if the Lord will we shall live and do this or that if it be God's will you know don't ever let some would-be preacher tell you that shows the sign of weakness to say well I'd like to have this if it be his will if you love God enough to know he knows all things and knows what tomorrow brings you wouldn't want it if he didn't want you to have it you would be more intelligent than that to know you only want what God wants you to have to accomplish what you must accomplish to do your part in consummating the end of this age period always pray God's will have God in every equation that you bring forth verse 16 but now you rejoice in your boastings all such rejoicing is evil you want to be real careful in my friend and you know they don't even realize it they really don't one more verse to complete the chapter therefore to him that knoweth to do good and do it that not to him it is sin if you know better many young people when they don't know any better commit some pretty bad sins they get in trouble and then they have to get out of trouble and in ignorance they do this that's forgivable why they didn't know but when you know better and you still commit that then it is a sin so what what is he saying don't leave God out of the equation of your life you know better don't leave him out ask that he bless you and be with you pray and ask his leading in direction and always take him with you you know draw near to him and have him draw near to you always take him with you and you'll be a lot better off don't miss the next lecture we'll complete this book and Jesus so this in a moment won't you please Genesis 146 the first six chapters in God's Word the world that was did you realize there was a world age before this one same old world different age the creation itself when were the races created you see all the races were created separately and you'll find that documented in these particular CDs how and what was the sin in the garden it will be discussed in this series also this is a must for the serious Bible scholar for if you do not understand how it was in the beginning you certainly will never understand the end I think you will find this series very rewarding and certainly will answer questions that no doubt you have always wondered about Genesis 146 hey I know you're going to enjoy this series [Music] and there we are back again let's have the 800 number please 1 864 3 4 6 4 5 that number is good from Porto Rico throughout the US Alaska Hawaii all over Canada the spirit moves and you got a question you share it once you do that please never ask a question about a particular Reverend or denomination we do not judge people I think today's lecture kind of shows you why it's not wise to judge judge least you be judged leave that in the father's hands he loves to do it and why because he knows even what people think he's qualified for it we're not necessarily but you are qualified to spiritually discern if you have the gift of God never be ashamed to use that discernment those of you that listen by shortwave around the world it's always a pleasure hearing from you and your announcer at the end of the hour we'll give you our mailing address again always a pleasure prayer request you don't need the number or an address why God knows what you're thinking right now all the way around the world he knows what does he want from you your love let him know that you love him once you do that that's a good start to prayer every time father I love you and let that love returned to you be pleasing to him and always bring him into the equation of your life father we do so as we come to the throne we ask that you need going to wreck father touch and Yahshua's precious name thank you Father amen ok in question time we're going to get right into it Karen from Michigan we know the time of the locust is May through September which is five months we know Satan has a five month period on earth does that mean Satan will bring his locust army in May does that mean Satan will only come in May or will it be a five month period yeah it will be a five month period but you got to remember there's four stages of the locust you got to know which stage you're in before you start counting five months and a watchman is supposed to watch in this coming week you're going to hear that five men period brought up and exactly what is happening concerning the locust in the world today were it will put all the loose ends basically together for you about what's happening in the Middle East and in Syria Egypt Bahrain and in Libya all these countries Iran it will all kind of nail together for you don't miss next week when you hear those Passover messages and it will I just know you'll be blessed and understanding the sieges of the locust Kim from Germany since my husband passed away unexpectedly in January I have found myself in such so much turmoil from the things my German husband has never told me I'm finding myself being really mad at him no you know no one when it's unexpected especially no one plans to pass away so they you know a husband always tries to I don't know as much maybe as I should but I could only say he always tries to protect his wife and maybe wholesome things handles things that he feels he's better qualified to handle and then poof he's gone and and but it's not his fault that he didn't do that it was because he loved you that he protected you my question is it wrong for me to be so mad at my husband for the situation in which he left me does God understand feelings I have asked God to forgive me and also my husband I thank God for you and your staff well honey you can forgive him he did not know and maybe he did not know or understand what you're up against now or to give you information concerning the end times and not being familiar with the situation but let God lead you pray and bring God into the equation and let peace come into your mind dear one and know that he's striving Atwoods drive to help you in every way that he can so so be let peace come into your life and you're gonna do just fine why would I what can I say that because you'd have God with you and if God is with you who can be against you doesn't matter okay we're going to go with the Rita from Canada my question is are the 144,000 alive today or are they already past I know they are from each tribe but somehow I am confused about this please help me well it's it's real simple Revelation chapter 7 what how does that chapter begin a certain the four winds are about ready to blow that means that's the end of the world okay this world age when the four winds blow it's over and this strong angel appears and says stop don't let the in come yet for we have to seal the 144,000 that's to say they put the seal of God in the minds of the people so they were living at this time and the sealing is the teaching of God's Word that goes into the minds of people to let them know who they are what they are who God is and what he expects from them Kim from Kentucky pastor Murray my children attended a different church than I believe and they want to be baptized in their church and the baptism belief is the same as I believe is it all right for me to support them in doing this well I would by all means there's only one baptism and that is to the Lord Jesus Christ and as long as those children know they're being baptized and saying publicly I believe Jesus Christ went into the tomb that's under the water and that he resurrected into eternal life then it it doesn't matter any Christian can baptize another Christian and but in that church I see I certainly see nothing wrong with it I would certainly never ever say anything and I'm gonna tell you why if you were to stand against that baptism and unfortunately if something in a week or two should happen to one of those children you would probably never forgive yourself because they would have passed on unbaptized so if I were you I would thank God that they want to be baptized and that would be the completion Charles from South Carolina pastor Murray will the Antichrist show up after the millennium reign that's a good question will the Antichrist show up at the end of the millennium reign answer no he will not show up at the end of them well why won't he well read Revelation chapter 19 verse 20 what does it say Revelation chapter 19 verse 20 states that when when this age of the Antichrist brought before the Millenium the anak that both the one-world government system and the Antichrist the false prophet himself both of those offices only the offices now are cast into the lake of fire meaning they don't exist anymore so naturally the enter your question is is when Satan is released a short season he will not be afforded either of those roles to deceive people all he has is his own two legs to stand on and to deceive people he will not be given those powers or that authority 1 Revelation chapter 19 verse 20 explains it it's gone Bobby from Indiana pastor Murray work and I find in the Bible that God is against those that teach my people to fly in that amazing how many times I get that question Ezekiel chapter 13 read verse 20 and take in the whole thing and I always say this it's God saying you saw those kerchief soar pillows to cover every digit of my outreach saving arms and teach my children to fly to save their souls by Satan that's exactly what it and that's when he says I'm against it and yet people will do it sad and it comes down to the fact of the sixth and the seventh Trump then there those people are not taught that are taught to fly that Satan comes at the 6th Trump and Christ doesn't return till the 7th so they hop in the sack with Satan and then expect to be a virgin when the true Christ returns forget it I'm speaking spiritually of course Martha from Mississippi as Christians how can we believe in capital punishment please give me scripture for this well as Christians how can you not believe in capital punishment if some pervert rapes molest let's say a twelve-year-old girl kills her murders her what do you want to do sending roses you you want to send him a love letter or do you want to turn him loose and let him do it again you would have better listen to God what does God say to do about it Matthew chapter 5 verse 20 write it down Matthew chapter 5 verse 20 Christ said thou shalt not kill you've read that well what does that word kill mean in the Greek it is fun Young's criminal homicide a murderer will perish that's what he says I don't change one jot of the law well what does the law say in that same chapter fifth chapter I don't change one I don't even change a little dot that changes the sounds of a letter a from a DA okay that's not much okay he didn't change the law it stays the same and yet people will teach the law doesn't exist anymore well I'm afraid it does rob a bank and see what happens to you thou shalt not steal you'll be locked up for a long time don't go do it alright you don't you're smarter than that then you can go to Deuteronomy chapter 19 and find out if somebody lies in wait wickedly and evenly evilly without a passion without a crime of passion that makes a big difference you're supposed to execute them one way or the other why God wants them up there why well why would God want them up there because the person they murdered is up there waiting for the real trial does that mean they're going to hell not necessarily I'm we're not supposed to judge let God do the judging Gordon what happens up there so in naturally a Christian must demand capital punishment well why would he want to do that God's advice you will do this you will send them to me meaning execute them and others will see in fear and these things will cease happening among you as long as we let it continue happening without it's going to keep happening many people will say well that's not a deterrent I'll tell you what you let somebody if you catch somebody that rapes a twelve-year-old girl cut their head off and see if they do it again okay see if that deters their ability to be a pervert again Ronald I may upset some people but hey don't you we want to protect our young people better than that haven't we got compassion from Almighty God to want to protect the little ones from perverts I think so Ronald from Michigan hi pastor I love watching your program well thank you can you please explain the part of the Bible that says one will be taken and one will be left everyone says that you want to be the first one taken and this shows you how misleading people can be you know something a child can read Matthew 24 Christ was asked how is it going to be at your return and the events that consummate the end of this age and he gives all seven things that seven seals seven trumpets he gives all seven of them in that 24th chapter of Matthew warning you that you will be delivered up before the Antichrist - not if they say he's in the field don't go in other words don't be the first one taken because it's the fake it's the Antichrist and you will be delivered up you will not premeditate what you will say but you will speak what the Holy Spirit gives you in that hour that's the whole purpose is teaching God's Word before the false messiah so naturally then one is is command and stay in the field working don't fly off to boom-boom land with Satan you know this is why that Christ would say when when Christ returns a lot of these so-called religious people flyways will come Z out chase us Jesus we healed in your name what you think you get away from me I don't know you never know you if you don't teach God's Word in truth he doesn't want anything to do with you you can't be a false teacher and expect God's blessings it's that simple Robert well you know some might say well isn't that of just a little rough and being judgmental no that's what the word says and it's better maybe to be a little rough on the ages edges that's a tough love and save souls than it is to let people deceive themselves into hell I think so Robert from Florida please explain the three world ages and we're in the Bible this is talked about basically throughout the word in the beginning God created the heavens and the earth period millions of years ago and then in verse 2 in the Hebrew manuscripts then the earth became void it wasn't created void became void and without form that's when the overthrow of Satan came and then this particular age came into being second Peter chapter three gives you all three heaven ages and earth ages there's only one heaven there's only one earth but there are different ages of time pastor Murray this is die Roger from Arkansas thank you so much for your teaching can you still go to heaven if you're not one of God's elect absolutely if you were a kin ight and loved the Lord Jesus Christ whomsoever will you're saved you get your heaven bound God's Elector not any more special than anyone else it's just that in the first Earth Age they stood against Satan and God knows he can trust him to stand against him again and they're going to it at the sixth Trump when Satan appears as Antichrist piece of cake okay no step for a stepper Marcy from New Mexico I am so glad my brother told me about you well I am too thank you dear I would like to know we're in the Bible it tells you about murder and just killing about the Ten Commandments well then I just answered that about capital punishment so I'll let that pass and I'll just answer where the Ten Commandments are you will find the Ten Commandments in Exodus chapter 20 Exodus chapter 20 it's good to have you with us Mitch from Florida I've often heard you say that this is an incorrect translation it really means such-and-such if God inspired the Bible when it was originally written why didn't he similarly inspire the translators so they could get it right for for those of us who do not speak Aramaic Hebrew or Greek surely he knew that languages would change over time and these languages would not be prevalent in the world I was sure you know it that's why he sends teachers but you know in the we have a copy of the original 1611 in our library that people can order I do not recommend it as a Study Bible I recommend it for one simple reason is where a person can have a look at it but at the same time to read the by the translator laters to the reader so that you know they warn you we've done our best check us out and I'm gonna take any good scholar we'll do that any good scholar is gonna say check me out but but it's good to study but check me out make sure decide for yourself languages Hebrew and Greek and Aramaic one word can have more than one meaning just like in in the English English is not a solid stationary language as those others are it changes from from one day to the other basically and by figures of speech metaphors and and so forth but God sent you the ability that's why I recommend the Strong's Concordance the Smiths Bible dictionary those were two scholars that were excellent in those languages that we were speaking of but at the same time you know what they would tell you check us out that's what God wants you to do God can give you the unction to intuitively once you check it out in the languages to determine what it means to you always study to show yourself approved rightly dividing the word of God Joanne from Ohio in one of your answers to a question the other day you said Esau was hated by God before he was in the womb does that mean you believe in reincarnation if so can you explain why no I do not believe in reincarnation I do believe there was an earth age before this one that's why God hated Esau this is why that God would say let us create man in our image that we were all with him and as it is written in the 38th chapter of job we were all with him and rejoiced in the first Earth Day that's why and when wisdom speaks in proverbs chapter 8 it says in the beginning wisdom talking when God created the sons of men that means he created us all at the same time basically we're all the same age that throws some people but be that as it may spiritually speaking but that is there are three earth ages 2nd Peter chapter 3 document said that is not reincarnation Jim from Ohio the other day you made reference to the third world and also the third heavens can you three heavens can you please times eons check out the word as it is used three worlds in the worlds and second Peter chapter three in the word in the Greek manuscripts four worlds is Aeon ok time different three different time periods but the same earth the same heaven Rick from Alabama how do you feel about prosperity ministers where they don't teach one bit of God's Word but just demand money my grandmother died giving money from our Social Security check to a ministry like this I am asking you for a straight answer thank you well my answer is as always when God sent forth 270 he said whatever you do don't take a big in bag ok and anytime you have somebody begging for money God didn't send them and that may offend some people but that's just the way it is if anybody's begging for money God didn't send them God when you teach God's Word and you're worthy God will see that the the the ministry is supported you're not supposed to ask and our beg and right now I beg you to let me go because I am out of time again we love I love you because you enjoy studying God's Word chapter by chapter and verse by verse but most of all God loves you for it you understand that God loves you for it makes his day when you read his letter we are brought to you by your tithes and offerings if we have helped you you help us keep coming to you once you do that you bless God he will always again he will bless you now most important though you listen to me you listen good you stay in his word every day and his word is a good day
