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 they tell you god bless you say welcome to the Shepherd's chapel welcome to this family Bible study are ready to get back in our father's word The Book of Proverbs proverbs is a book of good and a bad in other words a book of comparisons it's your choice which you choose it gives you the good and what happens to you if you are good it gives you the bad and what comes with that your choice okay in life but wisdom always speaks in Proverbs and you need to listen to her and you'll always you'll always be in good shape when you get understanding and exercise common sense come to chapter 20 verse 1 a word of wisdom from our Father and Jesus precious name let's go with it verse 1 rains wine is a mocker strong drink is raging and this however is deceived thereby is not wise this word deceived means overtaken and everything in moderation you are told in one place in the New Testament if you're in business and you're anxious and you can't sleep at night take a little wine for the good of the tummy a little okay just a little anytime what what is strong drink strong drink is any type of alcohol wine beer bourbon when you overdo okay when you when you can't handle it and and then it takes you over and thereby you're not wise why because there's spirits in the bottle and when you over in bib nobody likes to hear a drunk okay nobody wants to listen to a drunk and it's amazing to me how some people feel if they've had a few drinks that they can go to a bar and convert that people don't listen to a drunk you want to get that out of your system it will overtake you and make a fool out okay so anytime that you overtake whatever the drink is it it's not wise it'll take you over and there's an old saying I think it was Sir Walter Reilly that said the right to drink as a gentleman's and when you cease to be a gentleman you have no right to drink I suppose that's well some people totally leave it alone be that as it may but strong drink certainly will make a fool out of you verse two the fear of a king is as the roaring of a lion whoso provoked with him to anger sinneth against his own soul he in dangers his own life because a king in old times could say the word and and have you beheaded okay so naturally a person uses discretion and wisdom and certainly protects his own life it's your life it's your soul if you want it to have eternal life you'd better do accordingly okay verse three it is an honor for a man to cease from strife but every fool will be meddling in other words he shows his teeth okay can't he can't help strike he loves it loves if it's not all mixed up he's not happy okay but if you can cease from strife you got peace this is what Christ brings us his peace of mind he's the Prince of Peace and if you follow his wisdom you're going to find that peace and then that's why it is written that he became our Passover which is to say our Saba 'the meaning our high-risk you find rest in him or peace of mind and you cease from strife but but every fool he's always always stirring something meddling in someone else's business or gossiping nip it in the bud don't put up with it verse four the slugger again here's a lazy person Slugger will not plow by reason of the cold therefore shall he begin harvest and have nothing poor old slugger God comes down on him pretty hard he doesn't like lazy people okay well it's too cold to plow today but I'll get out there tomorrow but the trouble is for a lazy person tomorrow never comes he's not going to get around to it and the next thing you know harvest comes and what does he got Zippo not a nothing and that's what a sluggard earns the lazy person verse 5 counsel in the heart of a man is like deep water but a man of understanding will draw it out now deep water of course anytime you see white water it's rushing it's not deep and it's shallow and it's rushing and it's all messed up so is a person's life that is shallow ok but deep water is real still and a wise person knows how to draw out and what the living water the truth know how to draw truth out from our Father and - - and a man with understanding can do that he knows how to draw knowledge from deep water he knows where to find that deep water for Christ is the living water for take of it for six most men will proclaim everyone his own goodness but a faithful man who can find in other words most men are going to let you know how how good he is what is goodness is making all kinds of promises and everything but a faithful man that will after making the promises will keep his word how many do you find it's that's why that your name and your reputation is very important it's not only very important it's very valuable when you keep your reputation and your name clean and good then you're going to be successful blind because people like to do business with you they know they can trust you they know that you're a godly person and that you're not just talking about how good you are you produce and that's how you tell a faithful man when you do find one he's got a good name you can trust him if he gives you his word you don't need a contract his word will hold he will back that word verse seven the just man walketh in his integrity his children are blessed after him why because they got a good teacher if he walks with his integrity using his common sense using his knowledge and wisdom which he knows that it all comes from God naturally the children have a good teacher and a good example right before them and there they're going to be blessed why because they know how to get by they know how to get to be successful verse eight a king that sitteth in the throne of judgment scatter at the way all evil with his eyes in other words this word scattereth from the Hebrew it loses a little bit its winnow what okay do you know what winnow it means it's a term it's terminology for harvest in other words when you win or with you separate the real grain from the chaff and and that's why that a king that sitteth on the throne of judgment when Oh at the way all evil he separates the good and throws the evil away and his eyes a good honest king can recognize evil when he sees it and we know at that or harvest it out okay we know it's for one that may not be familiar with harvesting is where the grain is beaten and the shaft blows away in the wind and the true grain falls on the canvas or whatever you the harvest floor whatever you're catching so again a good king that sits in judgment is able to separate good from evil in all honesty verse nine who can say I have made my heart clean I am pure from my sin who can say that you know I want to turn over to the next book Ecclesiastes and read a verse there in chapter 7 chapter 7 verse 20 and chapter 7 verse 20 reads for there is not a just man upon earth that doeth good and sinneth not in other words who is we all fall short at times and any time you think that in your life you can do no wrong you don't even need Christ to repent to that you're perfect unfortunately you live in a flesh body and that flesh is going to work on you and that's why you have to practice discipline and discipline will pull you into the right way but you have to realize there is a time that I have made my heart clean what is the answer to that you can't make your heart clean let your mind God can okay with God's Word you can't do it on your own you can't do it by yourself why well all the way how many times have I told you to never forget chapter 1 verse 7 the beginning of knowledge is to revere or to love God okay and MacLean because all knowledge comes from him that's why he sent you this letter addressing you comforting you leading you into success rather than failure okay he can cut it verse 10 diverse weights and diverse measures both of them are like are like abomination to the Lord in other words some what is what it means is is the old boys got two sets of weights one that he buys with and one that he sells with the one that he buys with you can bet or real skimpy and and the one he sells with is quite the contrary don't words he cheats people he's got two sets of scales you know it is one thing to say God hates something but it's altogether a different thing when when God finds it to be an abomination when God finds what you're doing to be an abomination you're skating on very thin ice do you remember back to chapter 6 so what is it verse 16 the six things that God hates and the seventh is an abomination you want to remember that and cover it occasionally okay if you want to please the father because he makes it very plain they're exactly what he hates but then also what he finds to be an abomination and when you keep two sets of weights in other word you're messing with people you're cheating them and God doesn't like that verse 11 even a child is known by his doings whether his work be pure or whether it be right do you get that even a child you notice whether they're fair and and do what's right so don't ever think in an adult isn't everybody knows you that works with you everybody knows what kind of person you are why because your actions document it that is your reputation and if I were to title this 20th chapter I would call it personal conduct I don't know how is your personal conduct you go to keeping two sets of balances and even a child's work people notice whether it's good or bad then you know right away if somebody with unbalanced scales or two sets of scales one to buy and one to sell with they're going to notice it and you're going to be a failure in other words you're going to cheat yourself out of more than you're going to cheat people out of because you cheat yourself of a good reputation and a good worker verse 12 the hearing ear and the seeing eye the Lord had made even both of them in other words when when they are accurate when they hear and see what does that mean well it means they listen and they pay attention and from that what do you gain wisdom knowledge if you just sit back and listen for a moment you can learn a great deal and that's the way knowledge flows is for you to observe it to see it and both hear it many people listen but they don't really see it and many people can see but they don't hear and I'm not talking about handicapped people I'm talking here about people that literally do not have the ability verse 13 love not sleep lest thou come to poverty open denies and thou shalt be satisfied with bread in other words again this goes to a sluggard well I'll just sleep another hour I well I just think I'll sleep all morning rather than go to work I think I'll call in sick today I think I'll do this well you're you're headed for trouble it's spotted everybody knows so yeah it's true you need the adequate amount of sleep but that's it period when you sleep over that falls into slothfulness that falls into laziness and then and again I want well every time God mentions a lazy person he's not talking about handicapped people okay people that are handicapped they that's that's fine God makes allowances for handicapped people he's talking about people that are able-bodied healthy and do anything all right all they do is sleep okay so don't fall in love with sleep when you've had your adequate amount get up and get to it can-do type people verse 14 it is not it is not that's - time for emphasis but let's translate it is bad it is bad saith the buyer but when he has gone his way then he boasted that this is a very common thing among bartering when when he goes to buy let's say he's going to buy a horse and he looks him over and he said he's stubborn he's bad the horse is worthless but I will give you a certain amount and he takes the horse down the road of ways and he's bought it I ripped that old boy off I've got me a good I mean a stallion here that won't quit and and that's the way it goes God kind of doesn't want you taking advantage of people in other words what is it when if it's not bad and the person buying as it is I find all kinds of fault okay he's lying God does not like lying he he appreciates honesty now if it is bad that's fine and say it's bad and document it all right but don't don't don't put off on somebody and take advantage of them God doesn't like that I will you know in all my years of experience in bartering and and I grew up in a bartering family back in the old days that we did a lot of bartering that means you traded something for something rather than buy something but you're it's always gonna even out on you if you cheat people it's not long till you you will lose enough that it would have been much better if you had dealt honestly a good reputation is a precious thing 15 there is gold and a multitude of rubies but the lips of knowledge are a precious jewel that's the way it is if you have lips of knowledge you can gain gold and rubies but you can have golden rubies and be a little bit on the unbe a fool and you're gonna lose your golden rubies somebody's going to shorten and take you right out of it and you can count on it okay but if one has intelligent lips and knowledge you can gain the golden rubies okay 16 take his garment that is surety for a stranger and take a pledge of him for a strange woman again I hope you could remember that this word stranger in the Hebrew is er okay and and what what it means it's an apostate it's somebody that claims to be a Christian but they're false teachers okay so let's say it like it is take a go take His garment that is is surety from a imposter an apostate and take a pledge of him for a strange woman in other words you're going to lose anyway you go at it okay you better take guarantee if you do you better get his coat or something in other words you better back it up and you better have surety that means a guarantee a pledge if you're going to stand good for an apostate because they usually do not keep their word verse 17 bread of deceit is sweet to a man but afterwards his mouth shall be filled with gravel and that pretty well is self-explanatory the bread of deceit is sweet to one that's laying it on lathering it up but when God gets through with him his mouths full of gravel okay nothing sweet about it God does not like deception God approves of honesty it is so much better to be fair and honest and be a winner than to be a crook with a bad reputation and be a loser and be hated of all men it just deceit is a losing compound and you'll end up in the gravel pit alright verse 18 every purpose is established by counsel and with good advice make war and and that's exactly the way it is when every purpose is established by counsel that means the very wisest of people and when when you say let's take example the last war we were involved with and still are we had a person that had broken nineteen UN mandates I mean broke them outright and from this crooked nest came terrorists kind-- and working together that took two towers down in New York City so it didn't take much good advice with nineteen violations it was going nowhere had already had already had to run him out of Kuwait at one time and so it is there there comes a time that it is right to make war and but but at the same time you'll have a bunch of peaceniks that'll bleed there little old aching hearts out and and not enjoy freedom because you lose freedom when you don't make war against terrorists okay verse 19 he that goeth about as a tail bearer revealeth secrets therefore metal not with him that flatter ahthe with his lips and that's to say that he that goeth about as a tail bearer reveal is he he spills everything he knows he gossips and he medals and and one that gossips with his lips stay away from him okay it's just just a ratchet jaws that go on and on and seem to enjoy it and you know something who they run with they love to hear it just love to hear gossip always nip that stuff in the bit but do not tolerate it verse 20 whoso kharsa curseth his father or his mother his lamp shall be put out in obscure darkness there's one thing God is very sure of he wants you to honor your mother and father's the first promise of longevity in God's promises is to have longevity by but if you curse them certainly for for no reason your lights put out you're going to have a dark old life and of course Christ is that light you're going to lose him verse 21 an inheritance maybe gotten hastily at the beginning but the end thereof shall not be blessed this needs in the Hebrew it's very clear the family member that hastily runs doubt dad I'll sign them your will here and I will put this all in my name and I'll take care of the rest of the kids and it'll be alright I'll just I'll handle it for you you rest in peace and he rips off his own can and it always ends up in bitterness you know if you have five children and they're all good children it split five ways you don't have some ratchet jaw that comes rushing in taken advantage of someone especially a parent that might be a B in the transition of passing away and rip him off you just don't do that okay so so don't be hasty if you're a family you're part of that fan you don't out you don't out good anyone ok verse 22 say not thou I will recompense evil but wait on the Lord and he shall save thee he'll take care of it he'll help you is what it means when when someone comes against you with the evilness God protects his own children why he loves them and it may take a little time now this isn't that you're supposed to go out here and let somebody run over you and take advantage of you but that you you you stand your own ground but at the same time ultimately you have to know God's gonna equalize the thing he'll take care of a troublemaker he always will when you're doing God's work you'll protect you I know that to be a fact okay verse 23 diverse weights here we go again with the scales diverse weights are in abomination unto the Lord and a false balance is not good we have it two times in this particular chapter to show you that God considers it an abomination don't cheat people in any form or fashion okay that's just say knowingly cheat someone don't do it it will backfire on you what because God will see to it you will see that that the correct balance comes into play 24 man's goings are of the Lord how can a man then understand his own way this needs a little bit of work the first man that is mentioned here is in the Hebrew tongue is Gabbar okay the second man that is mentioned in this verse is a dozen it means a common man but Gaber means a strong man okay so let's read it with understanding let's read it a strong man's goings are of the Lord how can a common man then understand his own it's really quite simple have the Lord with you okay because one that follows God does God's work isn't mighty man okay so make sure that you love him let him know you love him and follow him and you're gonna do just fine okay because you will be also a mighty man verse 25 it is a snare to the man who devoureth that which is holy and after vows to make inquiry this disc kind of loses a little in the translation what it means is you get some holy Joe that starts spouting holy words without knowing what he's talking about or necessarily you've got to serve an apostate okay he's he's going about stuff and promising stuff from God's Word and then later he makes an inquiry to find out if what he said was correct or not that's a no-no when when you're teaching God's Word you either know what you're saying you know your subject you've done your homework or you keep your mouth shut okay don't MIT I guarantee you don't miss la mislead God's children because our Father will not tolerate it there will be no blessings for this snare to the man who devoureth that which is holy just holy words holy this holy that there's nothing holy about eating verse 26 a wise King scattereth the wicked and bringeth the wheel over them here again we have a term of harvest the scatterer that means again that winnowing but do you know what the wheel is have you ever have you ever seen an old ox pulling a grinding wheel and I mean it mashes that grain who turns it into flour so really what it's saying here a wise King separates the wicked out and he brings punishment upon them he put them right under the wheel they're going to catch it that's that's what a wise King would do so from that you know God expects punishment on those that break his word 27 the spirit of man is the candle of the Lord searching all the inward parts of the belly or at the heart you know and that's the way it is this a man spirit is the candle of the Lord meaning if your spirit if you are a follower of the Lord Jesus Christ Emmanuel God with us then you have a spirit but also the Holy Spirit dwells within you and it is the Spirit of the Lord and it it searches out your very mind you guides you directs you blesses you and and brings you peace of mind and we thank our Father for that verse 28 mercy and truth that's love in truth preserve the king and his throne is upholding by mercy that is to say by love in other words if he loves his children servants and he deals with them truthfully they're gonna love him in turn couldn't help it and everything's going to be fine 29 the glory of young men is their strength and the beauty of old men is the gray-head that means wisdom of knowing from experience how to get it done and that's that's what's important and thank God that the young learned from the old and the to make a a fantastic team ok verse 30 to complete this chapter the blueness of a wound cleanseth away evil so do stripes and inward parts of the belly in other words when when a person earned stripes and 39 were allowed not 40 that's overdoing it but blueness is when I mean the whip first starts it turns blue that's a bruise okay but then after the bruise will come the red okay and the bruises do cleanse away evil why because people see that if you break if you break the law a civil law or God's law you're going to be punished and that will others will see in here and these things cease to happen among you in other words discipline is very important God demands it when someone breaks a law or deserves punishment that's real love do you understand when it hurts one to pass out the punishment because it's it's there's no pleasure in that but it certainly corrects the punishing he that's being punished okay but the main thing is others see and see that this game doesn't pay any dividends and these things cease to happen among you then so the blue occasionally will get people's attention that that's a no-no according to God's Word so there you have it the 20th chapter and personal character okay or personal

you're thinking you don't even have to say it out loud but what does he want from you Hosea 6:6 I don't want your burnt offerings I want your love your grace mercy that's what he wants from you why because He loves you you're his child and your finger prints are different than anyone elses your DNA is different you're unique he loves you but he may not love what you're doing think about it father around the globe when we come we ask that you lead guiding direct father touch in Yeshua's precious name Amen okay questions we're going to go with Douglas from California I don't understand what you say about God loves everybody even though they're evil it doesn't make any sense to me would you explain that please well that's why he brought in forgiveness so that when you're doing something evil and you repent he can forgive what your is child it's no different than you and your children if you're blessed okay you can't help loving them even when sometimes they do bad things you know when they straighten out you're going to forgive them and love them God is a God of love every every part of God's plan is considering and thinking about his children and making things better for his children starting from Utah I was thank you so much for your program it helps my husband Darrell and I understand the Bible I was wondering about the flyway doctrine that was added to some Bibles and churches my sister is a born-again person who always claims to have discernment and says my husband and I are evil because we watch your program I don't want my family to become divided well you know I can see where you're going with this sometimes these in other words your sister is kind of ignorant to know that the Greek is not born again it's born from above you got to be born from above not like the fallen angels were that they've made a shortcut but she probably this discernment she's claiming is kind of one-upmanship on the family but unfortunately Starly as it's written in mark 13 sometimes the real truth can turn a mother against a daughter or a father against a son or vice versa but you have to stick with the truth in that way as it is written in the book of ezekiel you can help them in the Millennium if they should need it a family has just precious don't talk Bible to someone that that has a mental block like her she's your sister she thinks different she's on an ego trip probably I'll be a holy Jane here I can discern when someone is evil and usually if it doesn't go her way it's evil okay so and that's trouble in a family but you stick to the Word of God you know it's amazing to me that people would say you were evil for listening to me and all I ever teach is just the Word of God so actually what she's saying in her discernment is that the Word of God is evil that's pretty bad okay so pray for her and as best you can don't talk religion to her but you stick to God's Word you'll do just good real good but God told us we would have this problem in mark 13 read it mark from Georgia who is Jesus talking about when he says there will be many at my feet that say Lord Lord I have cast out demons in your name and he will say depart from me because I never knew you well it's it's people that are not taught that the false Christ comes first the Antichrist and that's the Christ that they follow because what is his message he comes at the sixth Trump as revelation makes very clear a child can understand it okay the false Christ comes at the sixth Trump and and and to do what peacefully and prosperously to convert people and who is the Antichrist he's nothing but none other than Satan okay and his message is I've come to fly you away okay and they're going to jump on his wagon why they haven't been taught they don't know so therefore Jesus says you get out of my sight I never knew you because they weren't casting out in his name it was the fake they do not know an apostate when they see one and if they're not careful they become an apostate themselves by what by not studying God's Word God makes it very clear that there is a deception and that's why in like in today's lecture he was so against deception that Satan is the deceiver of all times and unfortunately he comes in the sixth Trump the sixth seal in the sixth vial that's 666 and you'll have people that he's gonna brand 666 on your forehead he's not that stupid not that stupid at all that is a time eloquent and it is the mark of a man which means he appears at the sixth Trump Christ comes at the seventh and not until unfortunately that's why he says get out of my sight I never knew you that's the sad state to be in because you know they claim to be good Christian people wonder why they never get around to studying the letter God sent them on how to be happy in these flesh bodies which is to say his holy word Michelle from North Carolina what does the Sabbath mean today well what what does the word Sabbath mean as a linguist let's discuss it what does it mean Sabbath means rest you will read in first Corinthians chapter five verse six and seven that Christ became our Passover which is the high Christian Sabbath okay the highest Sabbath of all Christ became that what is Sabbath mean rest Christ is either your rest or you're not going to find any rest you're not going to find any peace of mind God is not the author of confusion but of peace and Christ is that peace by studying his word his advice and being honest so that's what Sabbath is today Christ became our Sabbath it is you can there are other places where it's declared and you better be with him every day of the week because you're a child of light not night ok until the end you're in a day the Lord's Day check out first that's the first Thessalonians chapter 5 and it'll assist you in that Dennis from California which generation are you talking about when you say the generation of the fig tree we love your teaching well thank you Dennis it's real simple and first you have to know the parable of the fig tree in Christ in mark 13 in Matthew 24 didn't say I think y'all are to get around to learning the parable of the fig tree he said learn it and he meant it you have to know the parable of the fig tree to discern what's happening he didn't say maybe he said get it do it so naturally the fig tree started out and what what did Adam and Eve cover themselves after they had sinned and been seduced by the devil the serpent which is the devil Lucifer the old dragon they put fig leaves they were in a fig Grove so you better follow the fig the the fig leaf means something hidden it better not be hidden to you and naturally Jesus when he said learn it that's why he walked up and he asked for fruit to be found he knew there wasn't any fruit on that fig tree and then it will tit to draw your attention to it the the answer you find in Jeremiah chapter 24 is when Israel become a nation again with those that would inhabit it it didn't say Israel those that would inhabit it that happened in the year of our Lord 1948 that began the generation of the fig tree it's it has quite a few years on it it was just celebrated okay that's what it's talking about Matt Jeremiah 24 documentation in part Hollis from Florida regarding Revelation chapter 19 and the Millennium will there be living people on earth in the Millennium I've been told also that the birds will be eating the flesh of horses such is this true and and relevant to living people there are when when instantly when that seventh Trump sounds at Christ's return all or changed the good the bad the ugly for what judgment okay but we have the Millennium that works in between and this dimension is not the dimension that you were in in the spiritual body and you have to know and understand that don't let the word dimensions throw you because Elijah when his armor-bearer and he were up on a hilltop there was a whole army out there and he said saddled up let's go get him and the armor bearer says whoa oh no no there's a whole army out there and Elisha said Lord could you just open the veil and let him see what's above us and the Lord allowed it and there was a whole spiritual army above them and killed a hundred and eighty-seven thousand of the enemy okay so there is a different dimension and naturally that's what the Millennium is about is bringing about those that missed the first resurrection hoping that some that were ignorant and did not have an opportunity to even learn the truth will participate in the second resurrection why god loves his children well are you teaching a second chance they didn't have a chance coming out the gate they're ignorant okay and that's not an insult to them it simply means they don't know any better Sarah from George Evans should children under the age of twelve take Holy Communion you cannot put a age on when children can begin to take communion because it's different in all cases it's just like baptizing a child many ministers set an age on baptism and you know if a child comes to me a very young child for baptism you'll always see me stoop down and talk to him for a moment what I'm make sure of is that they know what they're doing and they know why they're being baptized and then I'm going to baptize them because if I were not to when they come to the age of accountability and when they know what they're doing they are at the age of accountability I don't care if they're five years old if they know what they're doing if you did not baptize them and they were killed in a car accident on the way home how would you feel about that okay so you want to be real careful about setting I have known some people 60 years old that weren't at the age of accountability so you you have to use a little discretion and wisdom marine from Illinois how many heavens are there there is only one heaven okay well but it's written right there in their second Peter chapter 3 that there are three heavens you see this is where you go amiss by not having a Strong's Concordance whereby you can understand what saying because it doesn't say there are three heavens it says there are three heaven ages eons is what the word is in the Greek okay we only have one in heaven and there's only one earth but there are three earth ages okay so same old earth that's why the winner scientist tells you this earth is millions of years old it is and the Bible declares it you get some bible-thumper the writer this earth of 6,000 years old he's ignorant and doesn't know what he's talking about okay he can't read the manuscripts because the earth in the beginning God created the heavens and the earth period did and then the earth became void and without form he didn't create it that way God doesn't create anything Boyan without form it became that way because of Satan's downfall and that's why we find artifacts that are hundreds of thousands of years old because the earth is that old Sharon from Texas how do you know that footprint found in the desert was an angel and not a flesh person because it's 50,000 years old and there wasn't any flesh people fifty thousand years ago but there were people well it's a footprint though looks like a human print print well what were humans made from what did God say let us create flesh man in our image which means let's make them look just exactly like we look so naturally they had a footprint because they had a foot okay Henry this is a child from Texas Henry Young I know you miss your animal God loves his animals that's why I created them and as it's written in Isaiah chapter 11 in heaven there will be animals still there why because God loves his animals okay that's fine you never want to mistreat God's creatures okay we're supposed to be wiser than animals I I mentioned working an old boy over because I said don't ever hire a man with bloody Spurs today you don't need that okay if you if you if you're wiser than the animal you don't need bloody Spurs to train them so be good to God's creatures and you are that's why you miss them so much Carrollton Illinois when you are young and you do certain things that you do not know better from its it's not counted as a sin that is not forgivable repent and go in peace okay you're in good shape this is Eric from Virginia I would like to know we're in the Bible does it explain about the consumption of alcohol I don't drink but my siblings drink and I would like to share with them what the Bible says about it well you're lucky today's chapter 20 verse 1 of Proverbs tells just exactly what happens when you abuse okay nobody listens to a drunk okay and if it has some Eric if it has gone past a certain point I'll always recommend the AAA okay because a person that is absolutely has the illness of alcoholism a person that is not an alcoholic can't deal with them because you haven't been there they will con you they will lie to you they will but that's therefore that's why I recommend the AAA cuz you won't con those people they've been there done that you don't get away with it with them they were alcoholics themselves and they know and you don't go there to get rid religion you go there to get dried out and they're real good at okay real good so that's just a second thought but if it isn't that bad yet well then the word there's many places you would find it take your strong sand coordinates and go strong drink and you'll find it that's what it's talking about is instead of taking a little let's take a gallon okay and that's bad Betty from Arkansas my question is it wrong to click the horoscope in check the horoscope in the paper our pastor says it's wrong I always did it out of a habit I guess but never have again why well you know as long as you don't worship it or let it affect your life and it's it's kind of nonsense but at the same time the horoscope for farmers and ranchers is an important thing okay because we you do many things according to the the condition of the Moon okay a former plants root crops in a certain sign of the Moon right well the moon when it comes over from let's say at a coast town it'll raise the ocean five feet and when it's right here over us it'll also raise the ground water accordingly and that's the time to plant root crops if you want to be a good farmer and be successful and when you castrate animals that are certain signs that they won't bleed nearly as bad in certain saying but you don't worship it okay now did Jesus have a favorite best person he loved most who was the most loved disciple of all well Jesus called John the disciple he loved it was John he said take my mother home and and he depended on him he utilized John to write the epistles of John as well as the book of Revelation as well as st. John okay but he didn't play favorites okay John could just cut it okay and he used him that's why God uses who can cut it God can't use people that can't cut it okay that are not that haven't sought wisdom whereby they can cut it okay can do type people Frances from Mississippi I lost my baby seven months due to thyroid condition well I know him in heaven it is written in in Ezekiel chapter 44 which happens in the Millennium that as one of God's elect you will recognize brother mother father sister and so forth okay you will know them cliff from Texas could you explain Matthew 24 where it talks about the first being taken by Satan thank you well at least you're sharp enough that you know who was first taken because most people don't most people think is the Lord it makes it very clearly where a child could understand Jesus says I want to warn you don't be deceived for many will come in my name claiming to be Christian preachers but they're not and and there were wars and rumors of wars but and ultimately you will be delivered up before the synagogue of Satan you're not to premeditate what you'll say beforehand but God will speak through you okay and he didn't say maybe the false christs would come first he said Antichrist will come first in that chapter so naturally the first one is taken whether deceived they think it is Jesus Christ well how could they possibly think it was Jesus Christ because he looks like him like they have a pictured in their mind as it is written in Ezekiel chapter 28 concerning the king of tyre which is Satan he God made him the full pattern because he was a good Joe at one time before he fell and so a child knows that the first is taken by the Antichrist and I am out of time hey you know what love you all for one special reason you like to study your father's word but most of all God loves you for it when you read and study the letter he sent you it makes his day and when you make his day he's going to make yours okay now we are brought to you about your tithes and offerings if we've helped you you help us keep coming to you once you do that bless God he will always bless you but there's one thing that is really most important and you listen to me good that is this that you stay in his word every day in his word is a good day even with trouble do you know why because Jesus Yahshua is the Living Word hearing God's Word with understanding will change your life we hope you have enjoyed studying God's word here on the shepherd's chapel family Bible study hour with Pastor Arnold Murray if you would like to receive more information concerning shepherd's chapel you may request our free introductory offer our introductory offer contains the mark of the beast' audiotape our monthly newsletter with a written Bible study a tape catalog and a list of written reference works available through Shepards chaplain to request our free introductory offer by telephone call 864 3 4 6 4 5 24 hours a day you may also request our introductory offer by riding to shepherd's chapel post office box for 1/6 gravity Arkansas 77-36 once again that's shepherd's chapel post office box for 1/6 gravity Arkansas 7 2 7 3 6 we invite you to join us for the next in-depth Bible study each weekday at the same time thank you for watching today's program and god bless you [Music]
