That is the number to call and will start in Houston, Texas Brandon, welcome to the line of fire and yet God had yet had. I wanted to. One. Ask of you and also have a prayer request for you and anybody with so personal or they can ask how out of somebody know where they're at in the track to forfeiting one salvation I struggled with pornography since I was about 12 years old arose first introduced to it, but the Lord around age 17 and had a roller coaster ride or be on fire for the Lord in the back and back back-and-forth to the vomit of pornography and overeating and indulging entertainment titles competing with the Lord over and over again to the point now or I'm actually separated from my wife and my family with intent on restoration but this time separated is actually just emboldened my food will measure even more and I'm I'm scared meant, I don't want to I want this to go the way of it looks like it's going to go and how I want to be back in love with the Lord. I want to be a good husband and father, and one have a good relationship with my dad who's the pastor, Richard Butler ordered at that question of you with that little bit of back story and also the extra prayer from you if your listeners your folks, let's that's really hold Brandon appear in the stronghold you batting with many of us have battled with, but by God's grace. They found there is victory. So first, the idea forfeiting salvation, of course, to some Christians that say you can't forfeit your salvation the matter what. To me, Scripture is clear that you can, but that is ultimately a choice that remaking to walk away from God you're struggling you. You want to do the will of God. On the one hand, and you're struggling you are you are finding the flesh winning the victory you you hate what you're doing. The reason you hate what you doing this because you're a believer. The reason you call me on the phone asking for prayers because your believer so there should be a healthy fear because you could destroy your marriage. You could alienate your kids, you could have a messed up relationship with the data mean all these things are or possible and is no guarantee that they won't happen. Many others have destroyed their lives so there should be a healthy fear that moves you to take whatever steps you have to take get whatever accountability you need to get it until into your life is changed and God will help you his grace is sufficient, but I want to encourage you not to think of God in an adversarial way, but of God saying come on Brandon, I want to help you Brandon. This is why Jesus died for you as opposed to what he's gonna walk away from you because he's, had it that you must've one too many times. That attitude is gonna take away all hope that attitude is going to just bring further discouragement, but there should be a healthy fear to say okay I am not going to get this right on my own and if I were in your shoes out. I would tell my wife listen right now you have no good reason to believe me because I've messed up so many times in the past, but I will not allow her marriage to be destroyed our family to be destroyed.

I have to get right with God and just pray for me and end when you see the change in my life that I believe you're welcome me back this make you clear your you're not asking for a free pass. You know the weight and gravity of this. Have you ever been part of an actual program that that was designed to to work with someone just like you because point is a massive problem for so many today and some can just break the uranium and others cancel what have you done so far the part of the celebrate recovery group. My my home churches, smaller and will have that ministry, but I'm a part of one not it was it was formed attached to a specific church but it's not church specific anybody for many church bodies will and are you making progress with that in the center that had more good days if you want to call Matt over the last couple months that have been in it that I have in the thickness of most prior and what radical roller coaster yeah yeah what radical lifestyle choices have you made to make pornography less accessible. To be honest I can't fit that have made any right now. Let's got it in.

Yeah, that's what you have to do as long as the temptation is there and possible and whatever you have to cut off from your life or cut out from your life be a TV be at a computer be a smart phone whatever steps you have to take. You gotta make some radical lifestyle choices along with being part of a community that's helping you step by step-by-step you're getting to the root of the issues and overcoming from there. So do care about God.

I have removed Mark smart phone and replace it with a dump on you, but I still do have a computer, playing that with the false notion you access the Internet for XYZ units.

Justification there are ways to even have access to Internet and all you can do is get email and you know that there are ways to do that so makes a radical choice math if you care about God. If you care about your family if you care about your own soul.

And then once you're strong. You can see where you can have certain things in your life. One other question, have you had accountability software on your computer were every website you go to, you have a partner account of the partner that gets a list of every site you go to every day I have and I still found ways around them was around I got it and got it yes and solicit what is Jesus say if your right hand causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away so do the radical thing Brandon take the radical steps live differently wheat we lived before Internet. We lived without email. There are other ways to do things or your ways were urine up a public place and can just access email.

If you have to do it. Whatever, but there are ways to do this.

This is stronghold your life and it could totally destroy you, and then with that the overindulging food that's just like a logical thing that happens when you're feeding the flesh you get get depressed because the points of the neat and then you get depressed because her overeating. Then you watch porn you know so hopeless to put yeah come on Brandon, I believe this is the day you going to take steps you haven't taken before you pray right now right they pray right now. Father, grant Brandon that wholly resolve right now. I pray a holy fear mate made strike him. I'm about to destroy my life and my family and everything for porn Lord, make me that hatred rise with such intensity within and with that a sense of your love and kindness and your plan the good things you have planned for him and may he make that break. May he find freedom and new life in you Lord and live God is in overcome her in Jesus name. All right hey you send us an update in a month or two you can you can write in or call in.

I'm expecting to hear good reports God's faithful thank you for the call and friends of others listening. Pray for Brandon others hey you say that's me you're talking.

We will then do what you need to do. Do what you need to do to live for you can you can live without computer.

You can live without a phone you can live without a TV you live. A lot of things which can't live without God there other resources that are helpful.

I've I've recommended Steve Gallagher's book at the at the altar of sexual idolatry. There is a video series conqueror series that many found helpful sometimes accountability software covenant eyes or things like that, depending on the degree of stronghold that there's been some times the steps have to be more radical and we do that, based not just on we have to do is write based on the intensity of God's love for us. We have that sense of security and love. It's easier for us to overcome and find freedom.

I will be right back in the line of fire with your host Dr. Michael Brown voice of more cultural and spiritual revolution. Here again is Dr. Michael Brown thanks friends for joining us on line 4866-34-TRUTH with that we go right back to the phones and will start in Alberta, Canada. Jonathan, welcome to the line of fire. Hey Dr. Brown, Michael trying to quit, took a quick comment on your last caller computer software that I found really help me with gold gold. You blocker and brilliant and expensive and you can use whatever apps on their little boy to fable them for a time framework allow you to view them at certain times during the day. Very helpful are some woman's name is that again cold turkey blocker right so basically you would need someone else to set that up for you with their own password so that you could not then dismantle it when you wanted to write no for me like I could set up for a week or month I don't know what another is you. You had sufficient willpower to do that but if you could set it up then you could simply need to dismantle it or not renew it. You know what I'm saying you could let the thing just run out. So I really you want someone else to do it and use a password so you know what it is, so that you're stuck with it but but anyway it all depends on the level will cover it. But that thanks for sharing that information. I appreciate Jonathan yet. I'm just was wondering about. So many Christian marriage is struggling and thought just wondering what Orthodox Jews how to be the you marriage like from what I understand talking to local rabbi here that concerning the finances all the money that the wife made it actually him and so that the president kind of over the finances and just kind of wondering is there dowry involved, but was gone.

Okay first, you have wide ranging Jewish world, from secular to ultrareligious right so every community is going to be different and then some. Just take on the customs of the countries in which they live and others are living entirely by their own traditions, but in your average Jewish home religion I got on Orthodox SON in religious Jewish home, though the wife is mainly busy having children take care the children home.

She doesn't have an outside source of income for the most part, the husband will be the breadwinner. If it's an extreme Orthodox home with a husband, is expected to be studying day and night.

Then he may come from a wealthy family where the wife's parents help support him or the community supports them. But the idea of that. The wife having an independent business would would be more rare of as for Esther dowry, you still may have that in in the very, very religious settings but of marriages is obviously highly honored and considered very sacred and divorce is something very solemn, but there divorce is certainly part of the culture there can be divorce, there can be remarriage at any can be for any number of reasons in terms of of potential so it's not it's not a matter of there is no divorce in the Orthodox Jewish community. What I would say is that there's a very strong emphasis on the importance of family and there's a community that really esteems family and that is built especially for for husbands and wives and children, and that things are lived out together.

In that regard. So that's a strength would be the community life and the high esteem in which marriages held, but divorce still exists and and you know how it breaks down, and whose favorite how III don't know those details that if if they exist in general terms and in Orthodox Jewish marriage.

The board where they most likely do with the money to finance the 50 or would the woman get his dowry back hello son.

Right now the dowry back and forget that that's that's not the issue. If there was a dowry again many cases that's that's not II don't know that there's a general rule to that effect and I don't there there different aspects of orthodoxy. Different streams of opinion.

To my knowledge there is not just a standard arrangement. Here's how it works in Orthodox home any more than what's the standard arrangement in Christian home when evangelical Christian home or Catholic Christian home you I'm of the visitors anymore standard arrangement in the Orthodox community, either in terms of how things are divvied out. I know there there seeks to be fairness for everyone and compassion for everyone involved.

But how things work out monetarily have never looked at that in detail, nor am I aware that there's any a set thing, but certainly both parties would be free to remarry the you you have certain conservative Christian circles in which if you're divorced as long as the spouse is still living. Regardless of what the cause of the divorce was that you can't remarry. That's not the case in in Judaism if there was divorce than than both both parties would be free to remarry after that and Mike back in the 1800 in America. The children and the board would then go to the father would be the thing wave that happened in Orthodox Jewish home with that in the divorce that the children would be under the father was not yet what I wasn't aware of what you're saying in terms of America in the 1800s.

The normal pattern that you have an Ezra Nehemiah that when the Jewish man married foreign women and they were rebuked by Ezra by Nehemiah what they had to do was divorce them as the marriages were not right in God's sight and send away the wives and children, so the presupposition is that the women are the ones that are ones that are with the children on a regular basis. And just like most courts in America when you're in a divorce settlement will will will lean a bit more towards the woman, especially with children and things like that in many cases, yet the assumption would be that in most cases that the woman is going to go on with her children.

I got a few hundred that the better. Then America got time would play with the father and so that the what we get where what we did. You with as you read that are learned that you might be here today by Victor.I got that though women can own property and would not inherit the children knows that is not children when the property, but those would be the ones that are expected to to be caring for them and that are in the home where is that the mentor out in the working in the field all day and in the and will not be teach the children were working with the children but yeah that that may be here. Seven never even heard that before. Actually, I thank you for calling in 866-34-TRUTH. Let us go to Adam in Kansas City, Missouri. Welcome to the line of fire for taking my call. Try again. I briefly discovered your ministry just from trying to fact check Ravi or Toby if there and one of the interesting points.

I heard you raise one of your talks was that you said you believe that I think in the Jewish literature. It quite believe that the Messiah, but you had to come before the destruction of the second Temple and therefore you have to look at the candidates for the Messiah before the destruction of the second Temple and then Christ emerges as the only credible one. I was just hoping you could talk a little bit about why you believe the Messiah had to come before the destruction of the second Temple rights that's based on Scripture rather than Jewish traditions.

There's an interesting Jewish tradition that says that that the world will exist for 6000 years 2000 years of of chaos that would be from Adam until Abraham 2000 years of Torah would be from Abraham to the Messiah and 2000 years of Messiah, which would be roughly the last 2000 years, but because of our sins. All these things have passed and he hasn't yet come so there is that statement in in in Jewish tradition, but I I based entirely on Scripture in terms of my own theology and it's a threefold argument. The first argument is that in Haggai. The second chapter, as is the Temple has the second Temple has been dedicated and it's it's like nothing compared to Solomon's Temple and God says that the glory of the of the latter house will be greater in the glory of the former house that he'll fill this place with glory down in context.

It's also talking about the physical rebuilding in the silver and the gold, but if you look in the context of dedicating the tabernacle or temple filling with glory speaking of God's presence so and in what way was the glory of the second Temple greater than the glory of the first and that's really bring in Jewish literature that confirms the resort of the covenant. There is no shocking divine presence. There was no fire coming from heaven. The things that were there in the first Temple in the second. So how was the glory of the second Temple greater than the glory. The first step. Second point in Daniel 924 to 27 where it lays out this 70 weeks of years is 490 her. During which the second Temple will be rebuilt at the end of which will be destroyed. It tells us that six different things have to take place. One is that everlasting righteousness is associated that that atonement is made for sin and wickedness.

That's not just something of the cleansing of the temple and to the Maccabee so when did that happen when did those things come to pass.

This had to be during that the life of the second Temple and thoroughly. Malachi 3 it says the Lord himself hot a dome. The Lord himself will visit that temple. The second Temple so how was the glory of the second Temple greater than the first Colossus is in this place of peace that was marked by wars. The second Temple. How is it that everlasting righteousness, and coordinate was made for sin and how is it that the Lord himself visited that temple simple answer Messiah came to fill this mission for the second Temple was destroyed their hero) for the Expo line of fire with your host Dr. Michael Brown get into the line of fire now by calling 866-34-TRUTH here again is Dr. Michael Brown thanks Vince for joining us on the line for 866 hey, if you have a hard time getting through on a Friday were not able to get your call go store you to chats as well. Different days of the week. Today it's happening in 45 minutes roughly slightly under that will be back right in our YouTube channel ASCII DR Brown's you can just watch their use poster questions we get to a ton of questions that will be starting for 15 Eastern time. Got it's about 1243 minutes from now. So okay Adam.

Kansas City Vegas answered the question.

Adam, if you want to dig deeper go through all the arguments in depth more supporting background from Jewish literature, volume 1 of answering Jewish objections to Jesus.

It's a five volume series, volume 1 of answering Jewish objections to Jesus.

Objection 2.1 that's real get into this in some depth so it's the beginning of historical objections 2.1 and answering Jewish objections to Jesus. Volume 1. All right we go to Cody in Cincinnati, Ohio. Welcome to the line of fire. Dr. Brown question on Exodus chapter 4 verse 24, right after express regard to start talk to Moses about delivering his people out of Egypt and fed a lodging place on the way the Lord met him and talk to kill him was really confused by right after talking to Moses about that fee comes and seeks to kill him and then right after that his wife circumcise of his fine because my blood. He manager seemed like a really, really odd in the story it doesn't fact, I think you're the second person to ask me about the same verse in the last week so probably every yeah probably every one of us is ever read that passage. It's been like was doing there. So first we understand that quinces got sought to kill him. Obviously Moses knew he was in trouble God's intent was not to kill Moses because intent was to use Moses. Moses was guilty of something very, very serious so this is this is what God is seeking to communicate to Moses he's about to go into Egypt. He's about to tell Farrell from the Lord Israel is my son, my firstborn, let my son go to worship me otherwise on the kill your son, your first once… Heavy weighty message. And there was one sign that God had given to Abraham and his descendents. One sign and one sign only that they were to observe and older generations that would signify that they were part of the covenant people obviously is as worshipers of the one true God, and that was circumcision for every male on the eighth day and this is something that Moses would been trained and taught in understood because he was he was raised by his actual mother before being in Pharaoh's courts and things like that. And yet, he hasn't done it for whatever reason he is walking in open disobedience to the one covenantal sign. God has given up for all the sons of Israel and now he's going to going to Faro speaking on behalf of God and say let my son go and God was not can have a God was saying this is something you don't mess with and it's it.

The penalty was being cut off you if if you refuse to do that you can circumcise your your your son so this is God saying you have. It is not.

It could well be that the reason it didn't happen was that his wife didn't want to happen know they can be reading between the lines there so he disobeyed God to keep the family happy either way God so you're not about to go on a mission is life-and-death mission to deliver my son Israel from Egypt, when your own life in this most fundamental way is out of order and when they do it then. Everything was on from there. So it's a very odd narrative, but that's the backup that's what we have to understand the failure to circumcise was a failure to obey the one covenantal sign that God gave and he said if you don't, you'll be cut off from your people and I was literally about to cut him off. Okay I rely clarity. Yet, look, it's one of these things we are just like you reading the Torah laws for the priest and says that don't do this so you don't die sick will I realize is that serious know it's it's it's like you. You bring home this thing and in your your putting it together. You know for your kid that cyst electronic and so on you to plug this thing and it's is make sure you don't plug the sarong otherwise you'll die okay. I think we better be little more careful doing this so D the weighty heavy things in God that we often trivialize and this was one God say Nono this must change or begin to fulfill your mission you cannot be walking in open disobedience. But thanks for asking Cody appreciate 866-34-TRUTH we go to Bischof in Murfreesboro, Tennessee. Welcome to light a fire hello are you there.

I are you speaking into your phone yeah I go ahead let's give it a try this if you talk will will say go ahead are not right somehow. Whatever's going on you are not with us in grace and see if we can figure this out in the boat will go back to our our friend here so grace and get on with him and see if we figure out what's up with that connection of this go to Lisa in High Point, North Carolina. Welcome to the line of fire. Dr. Brown at have a great respect for your ministry really like to listen to it arm out that work to celebrate recovery. And, after uniting treatment.

You know like I work the program. I walked away from the Lord years ago and I didn't really think at the time I understood the Lord. I didn't understand what had happened to me right, I think there was some severe lack of discipleship at the church, that you know here's your Bible and pray. You know, and I think I didn't understand the Bible and didn't pray very much. I just I don't even really know exactly what happened but I didn't know that I come to the Lord in the beginning, and repayment. But anyway Alaina tragically sample stand for closet with it was like a horror story at you know I like that car laughed when the church say that you can't, you know I was in lesbian activity in pornography and different things like that but I wasn't proud of it and what is matter fact I got the other day when I met a young girl had put the Christian flag next to the product flag represents perversion got that about that and I was I was upset because I felt like it that the lower down you and I but anyway what I'm saying is that if her day and I don't mean anything by that. I love you let your brother and I love you, but if I hurt you say while I was on my way back to the lower that someone can lose their salvation. I probably would've jumped off a bridge so anyone could allow their salvation. It would've been Lisa. You also could be said that God will never turn you away that God will never reject you that I'm just being honest with what Scripture says I mean they're all kinds, not more. So let me ask you something. If I don't know if you renew the Lord before you said you walked away. But if you genuinely knew him right and and yeah you die God for bid is a practicing lesbian into pornography. I don't believe that. Okay, something that marked me personally I believe that okay so that's all that's I would be saying that there's always worth there's always a way back. There is always God will never reject you if you come to him and asked for mercy to forgive 1000 Times Are Not My Way or when attic yeah I like his mercy is incredible lease and and I would absolutely overwhelmingly whoever is whoever you are listening, watching right now, whatever you've done is the most despicable, disgusting, ugly things and and hurt every person that ever cared for you and and bit every hand that went out to feed you and and and I've just been an ungrateful wretch and mock God and and did things to to to publicly dishonor him if you if you turn back to him for mercy will have mercy to have mercy at at and he will forgive and he will cleanse and and he will wipe away that multitude of sins, and give you a fresh start in your relationship with him. He Lisa, thanks for sharing the testimony of God's faithless love because it's obvious he brought you back. We don't just make that decision independently. He works in our lives and brings us back so thanks for sharing that he's good 866-34-TRUTH all right we connect again with Bischof. Let's try again. Look, go ahead. Just speak and were good. Yeah I can hear you are whatever's going on. Will have to try to reconnect another day. Okay this somehow I'm not sure what the issue is here.

We got time to get to more your calls. Let us go to Caleb and Amarillo Texas. Welcome to the line of fire. Caleb, are you there hi Mary yeah I can hear you go ahead. I Brown though recently I my wife of five years told me that she is. She does not believe in the Christian faith anymore. She had issues with the atonement understand why Bob would require five chapter commending the children know not to sacrifice people and she looking to convert to Judaism and make me mad. I would like you to pray for me and mean and happy on the air, but whenever whenever possible, but I guess how how how would you go about ministering to us positively what what what would you say to that, the question of the atonement and why God chose to do to redeem us in the way that he did. Yeah. First, I'm sorry that you go through that. That's got to be massively traumatic.

I got a couple questions for you but want to do during during the break. I'm going to ask grace into it to get back on the line with you and I want to send you a copy of my book for your wife real kosher.

Jesus is a chapter in the book that opens up this whole atonement issue very very powerfully very clearly about the atoning power of death of the righteous Judaism dropsy some other bigger issues going on, but will be right back. It's the line of fire with your host activist, author, international speaker and theologian Dr. Michael Brown voice of more cultural and spiritual revolution get into the line of fire now by calling 664 through here again is Dr. Michael Brown thanks friends for joining us a little less than half hour from now 15 Eastern time will be back on YouTube that's ASQ Dearborn Esther down on YouTube for our weekly YouTube chat were he answers many of your questions as we can, of all right, Caleb is getting his info to Grace right now so we can send them a copy of real kosher Jesus on on the come back to Caleb and situation in a moment. Go to the call, but I will make sure the Caleb gets to hear what I have to say, so a first will go over to Carol in Charlotte North Carolina. Welcome to the line of fire Brown thank you for taking my call. You and care documentary years ago and what about the Bell were declaration and when the Jewish nation returned to his route, heard it correct that ran like giving the leader true and will I ever get back right okay since it's a super complex situation. But here's the short version that what was called Palestine for almost 2000 years that that that part of the world was under different control. It was it was under at times Christian control. It was under Muslim control. It'd been under the control of the Ottoman Empire and then after World War I. It was under the control of the British mandate, so you had, you had Jews who had been living there through the centuries, but they were minority had Arabs and others living there. They were larger number and and there were landowners among them.

But most of the land was undeveloped the late 1800s. Margie started moving back there and and then as they moved back and started to develop the lender. Arabs started to move into farm the land in and work for the Jews and things like that and then the Balfour declaration declared it in intent that there would be a Jewish homeland. And then there were various proposals because is still under the British mandate and international control now is other than a parcel this out so yeah there were there Arabs would live there some for decades and for centuries and were landowners there would use a smaller percentage live there. They were landowners, but the control the governmental control over the whole territory was was under Britain and international oversight so offers were made in the 30s. Okay, let's divided up about 75% will go to the to the Arabs about 15% will go to the Jews and the rest will be overseen internationally in the Jews debate. It's not much, but okay will accept them. It was where they're going with the Arab leadership said no. Then you and come up with partition plan that was more favorable to the Jewish people.

Okay, you get this part.

I was with this part you said yes. I believe you said no and that's when the wars began. So it has been legally recognized internationally that that one part of the land is under Jewish control. That's that's given that you have a plot of land and Interpol event owned by an Arab that's that's remains not the issue, but if if you would not encourage you to do is go to my broadcast from a week ago Thursday week ago Thursday, and I get into this again to the history and a lot more detail.

Okay so go go back a week ago Thursday through Jewish there is that you can find on the YouTube channel for more details or just go to Jewish virtual Library online Jewish virtual Library myths and facts and you'll be able to plug in any specific question about the history, there Jewish virtual Library online myths and facts. You'll find this a thanks all right, so let me go back to it to Caleb you still there, sir. All right of has has your wife been a strong committed Christian. Over the years that is suddenly just turned away growing growing up she was very dedicated to spreading the gospel ministry done.

She grew up in fundamentalist background that was what you describe as being little harmful.

Okay, here recently been married.

She hasn't been as involved in I get you call like regular Christian God and end where did the Jewish think him and what what's making her think that that Judaism has the right answers or that she should convert to Judaism so she's actually looking to convert either to reconstructionist or warn you in the main got in there their support for the LGBT community and to social justice right right. It does almost nothing that he was coming reformed Reconstructionist Judaism is tremendously liberal and it's all social issues.

I mean there is there an massive decline in terms of membership numbers because there's very little to hold onto my wife, Nancy, oh was raised in different different homes because her mom was married several times, but during formative time of her life's little girl growing up she was raised in a home where were they went to a reform synagogue and that's that's one major reason Nancy became an atheist. At the age of eight, was able to recognize the cause. Not here, and and her stepfather was a leader in the men's club was an atheist soul. Yet there there there much bigger issues that are going on here. Obviously, Anna and so the book that I'm sending you the real kosher Jesus and has a chapter in it on the atoning power the death of the righteous and that lays out in Jewish terms why Jesus died. It it is all about substitution.

It is about the righteous willingly taken the place of the unrighteous. It is has nothing to do with human sacrifice we all repudiate categorically human sacrifice.

This is a matter of of the righteous one saying it's it's it's like you know kids are about to be hit by by a car and the mother jumps in the way of the car to save the kids. It's it's the one that can lender lies down to save the others that that are helpless or lost so that that will be useful, but really the bigger issues or are these other things you know the whole idea of completely denying Jesus throwing out God by large just for social issues.

That's the that's the deeper thing. So here's what I'd encourage you to do right and hopefully wife would be willing to do this so I'm sending the book look at the chapter on the atoning power the death of the righteous ever read that. Maybe it'll just enough lights will go on that will will help awaken her to turn back in the right direction, but please ask you to sit down with you to watch the movie in his image.

Without hearing record, 541 not keeping their profession onto them but no argument with the right of Christ.

When we believe yeah okay so unbelievably great guy. I then even though right start for them and I think I get that because when you Revelation 1155 or not right so so that the lawyer should jump in only because I have a minute and then I would hate for you to fully articulate your question that I can answer so at the cross Jesus pays for all of our sense, and rather than God, condemning us, God offers us salvation. God did not send us into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through him might be saved right so this is God saying, be reconciled be forgiven received grace rather than beholding this against you, I'm offering forgiveness to the cross. If you reject that forgiveness. This is like a drowning person that they were foolishly jumped in the water. It's their own fault.

Nonetheless, you go out in your boat risk your life to save and reach out your hand to them. Come on, let's get back in spoken of this water. If they refused to take a handgun ground so if they refuse forgiveness which must be received by faith if they refuse that then their sins are still on their head then then for them. It's as if Jesus never died because they rejected the forgiveness they rejected mercy, so most likely going in the prison cell and closing the door themselves, but many people don't even know that's been paid. Let's make it known.
