Phone lines are open you got questions, we've got answers for the line of fire with your host biblical scholar and cultural commentator Dr. Michael Brown your voice moral sanity and spiritual clarity call 866-34-TRUTH to get on the line of fire and now here's your host Dr. Michael Brown to call in any question of any kind on any subject whatsoever as long as it ties it in any way with the line of fire anything I've written said a guest is written, said you've heard you want to clarify 866-348-7884 we we had a few interesting glitches yesterday of one of which was that my voice started to go, despite the heads couple allergies may be different climate from North Carolina to Texas. Don't know what it was but torts into the ship.

I was lost my voice likely came back for those that were prayed fervently during it I appreciate but we we got our throat coat tea in my action a tongue still burning without a little bit also nice and hot throat. Coutu did whatever else we could to make sure the voice was good and strong, so now's the time to call any question of any kind on any subject that relates in any way to the one afar 86634878840 will start with Caleb in Michigan.

Welcome to the modifier. Dr. Brown appreciate you are technical sure thing a brother just got a call question about Revelation 21 a minute, says near that the fearful of the unbelieving idolaters went on Erica kingdom of God.

I'm just by nature to a timid person you know I have. By God's grace of boldness to witness to people and testify of Christ Nagano but sometimes and in just in life in general. Like if it comes to making decisions that are a little risky. I feel to me that I cannot take the sure side and being with someone as his anxiety for a long time just seems like whatever I do doesn't go away, but just that I sometimes when I go through the thing that makes me doubt my salvation in Christ. Want to hear your thoughts on the fearful. They are right right will say thanks for asking that first you should understand the better way to translate that in context is the cowardly, the cowardly that it is talking about those who under pressure will deny Jesus is talking about those who when it comes to following the Lord, be obedient to the faith are cowards of the fact it that in the midst of your natural timidity, you're a bold witness for the Lord is the exact opposite of that. Let me make clear that God is not damning anyone to hell because of a a personality weakness on a move. I tend to be timid I I'm not so bold, I I am not that aggressive in my nature. No Gothic, and it damn someone to the lake of fire for that and him if you look at other things, most faithless, detestable murders, sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars. Those are people willfully committing sin.

In fact, there is there's a Greek scholar of CL speak SPI CQ and tremendous research he did on on the Greek language and wrote a lot in for an French them much were translated into English, but I just want to read to what he says about this when Revelation 21 eight places the fainthearted in the unbelieving in the lake of hot fire. It hasn't few Christians during terms times of persecution, who out of a fear of suffering renounce their faith. It is a commonplace that human courage and cowardice are revealed in the face of death so he could he goes on with that. So cowardice can then be defined as a more serious disease than those which reflect the body because it destroys the faculties of the soul. Quoting from an early Jewish philosopher so the fact that your cautious. The fact that that you can be anxious.

That's not what this is talking about. This is someone who is cowardly when it comes to the faith, and ultimately chooses to preserve his or her own life as opposed to being obedient to Jesus. So fear not be at peace and do your best to to learn to live out Philippians 46 through eight were you come to God with your concerns with your anxiety with the things that we doubt and you give it over to the Lord, and he gives his peace, Max the Cato is a nice book about this about not being anxious that you might find very helpful to such an amazing author and I was listening to it on on audio some months back you might enjoy that. You might find it helpful, but fear not, is not damning you to hell because of the natural timidity okay. Remember, thank you so much appreciate you and all you do better government. Thank you. I don't want one last one less thing.

One other thing is that we learn that God's strength is made perfect in our weakness.

Paul writes about that in second Corinthians 12. In fact, a great steamer first and second Corinthians is the theme of weakness in God's strength manifest through weakness and the weakness of the cross being the power of the gospel soul. I'm a very self-confident kind of person and when I got say DeRosa had to put my confidence in the Lord. But over the years. There was kind of a subtle mingling of that was self-confidence is about 20 years ago. The Lord really brought me through something that brought me to the end of myself in different ways, and since then I've learned to lean on God's strength in my weakness and when I have an intense schedule or overwhelming responsibilities. Rather than saying I do this I say Lord your strength that my weakness in fact I have sometimes walked from from the floor of Wyoming.

Speak up the steps to the platform, and as I go up each step before I speak, I say before the Lord strength that we can strike that of weakness.

The reminder that it's his strength manifest out of my weakness.

You can lean on that board and myself. I'm timid but you haven't given me a spirit of timidity, but of love, power and a sound mind. Thank you for the call.

All right let us go to Chandler in Ada, Oklahoma.

Welcome to the line of fire. Hi Dr. Brown I have just a quick question for you. What's the difference between being baptized in the Holy Spirit and actually receiving the Holy Spirit. Another some believe that at salvation. You know you're sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise. You receive them. But then there's also places I can ask for it when they laid aunt on them. They received the Holy Ghost right what the different soul. It is a debate in terms of terminology.

Most Christians teach that the moment your saved that you are baptized in the spirit that you receive the spirit that you have the spirit and then in the book of acts. For example, the Samaritans come to faith in the eighth chapter, but it's not until Peter and John, lay hands of the receive the spirit or in the 19th chapter Paul S the believers he meets from Ephesus if they've yet received the Holy Spirit and they were ready. Believers will then have the full information of the God of all the gospel of they would say that was just kind of bringing these new groups, Samaritans and Gentiles or extended Gentiles, Cornelius, and then the this the speak in tongues, etc. those were decides that they were bringing these groups it this on my own view my own view is that Pentecost must have a webinar finish by my answer so Chandler my understanding is that the more saved. The Holy Spirit comes to drawing us.

Our bodies become temples of the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit renews us and we have the spirit living within us were led by the spirit, the more safe in the holy spirit baptizes us into the body of Christ right that we are not brought by the spirit into the body at at the same time we have not been endued with the power of the spirit that understands something subsequent to salvation is this is a difference that I would have is a Pentecostal as opposed others are not Pentecostal so I believe your moment. Your saved you have the Holy Spirit living within you are in draw upon spirit led by the spirit about his temple spirit all that but that the baptism of the Spirit is a subsequent empowerment for service with the releasing of the gifts of the spirit and that's what's mentioned as receiving the spirit that it was understood that you could be a believer but there was something more to receive. I asked Leonard Ravenhill when we were close friends last five years of his life.

I said I heard a fellow teaching on the radio and he said when a baby is born. That baby has everything it needs it just needs to grow.

It doesn't need new eyes. It doesn't need a new habit doesn't need the laser if if it's a healthy baby at birth and has everything it needs, and now it just grows and develops his it's the same with us, the more savory receive everything we need from the spirit. There's no subsequent empowerment receive everything we need from the spirit is just a matter of growing. I asked for the line. How would you respond to that used Bobby said I've never been seen a baby born that was fully clothed. No successor that even the Greek for being endued with power. Some translations a closed with power from on high.

My simple statement to everyone is to show me literature say we receive it all at salvation, wonderful show me, let me just see that demonstration of power of the Spirit in your own life. Unlike in the debate that I believe it or something subsequent but either way, let's ask for everything he has so we can glorify him to the max 866 340 following got a couple lines open, which often we don't have it all on Friday so if you call and now will soon be able to get to your call. Let us go to Daniel in Canada. What have we lost Daniel here. Hopefully without having a phone problem today let us go to Greg and Cary, North Carolina. Welcome to the quantifier. Dr. Brown are you doing I'm doing great thank you is about to let me arraign revelation be people that are to be left over from revelation that would enter into the millennial reign is that correct question of I thought we were to be through with the same that is not good to be around nonbelievers for witness, but I'll think it while allowing her to be around nonbelievers and obliterating are not a lot of particular cellular data by the thousand years a thousand years a day so it may be almost like a day but I don't know I'm just curious what your take was on that you understand what I'm like yeah that's an interesting point. So when you read Revelation 19 gives the impression of the whole world. This is wiped out of the return of the Lord. But if you compare with the scriptural etc. 14 you'll see that there were survivors of those who attacked Jerusalem so the nations that attacked Jerusalem. The people actively involved, or destroyed with the survivors of those nations will enter the millennial kingdom.

Some argue that that's the goal to finish hundred and 73 866-3487 83,000 call the line of fire with your host Dr. Michael Brown on the line of fire by calling 866343 here again is Dr. Michael Brown back to Israel. It's been a few years because of covert or next trip was planned may 2023 were able to open up extra hotel rooms in Jerusalem to make room for folks on the second bus rolling up to us is Max.

That's it. So it's a great time. It's an intimate time with you special meetings every night Q&A worship here from local messianic leader live radio so long with the amazing tour by day we get to spend time together every night small group so if you've been planning on going, thinking of going or able to do it. It's can be gracefully five-star hotel stew that the folks really want to do that since regularly amazing trip. Good asked Dr. Brown.org to find out more, but the sooner you sign-up, the better to space is limited. Truly, also, we've got a really exciting announcement going to be making about a free resource the beginning of the week. So now is the time to sign up so that you make sure you're begetting our email announcements asked her to Brown.org is the place to go all right. So backed back to our Greg and Cary, North Carolina. So the millennial kingdom as I understand it will be the time when a remnant of people on the earth. Enter into a time when Jesus is rule is ruling and reigning on the earth is like paradise on earth. It's described for example in Isaiah 21 through four, or in much of the 11th chapter of Isaiah with the wolf lying down with the lamb, and no war and swords being beaten into plowshares and the knowledge of the glory of the Lord will cover the earth is the work of the C7. We've never ever experienced or seen and will be unimaginably wonderful and blessed and good and we were believers ready resurrected will be working together with the Lord.

Ruling reigning over the earth with him as understand Scripture. Some say there's the sheep and the goats division first so it's the sheep nations that enter it, whatever it is the rebels will not enter it. Those that were at war against God actively trying to Tetris and they will not enter it so your question, which is uniquely Greg which I've never heard asked this had to swing a string to the eternal age where were just with believers forever and ever.

In a perfect resurrected state. There is no sin. I want to be around people can potentially send first it's gonna be an environment on earth the likes of which we've never seen second.

It seems that this is further preparation for us for eternity. In certain it's a time when multitudes of people will able to come into the knowledge of God in a way that they haven't before and and Peter says in acts three that he calls on his audience of Jewish listeners or acts 319 repent and turn to God that your sins may be blotted at the times of refreshing may come in the presence of Lord that he that that he may send the Messiah that heaven must must hold onto it until the time of the restoration of all things come spoken by the prophets, so this is gonna be a glorious wonderful time that we get to participate in, and if there is sin and rebellion. It will be dealt with instantly.

It will be judged to be dealt with suicide likely to be around grieved all the time surround pornographers that were around perverts and were around murderers and around rapists. Note that the second the environment. Most people will not make it in the first place. Those that go that way everybody will be swiftly dealt with. It will be a great time to declare the knowledge of God to the ends of the earth. I thank you for the question. I appreciate 866-34-TRUTH.

Let us go to Estella in Greenville, South Carolina. Welcome to the quantifier. Are you there all right.

But it's give a shot in the moment we go over to Sean in league city, Texas.

Welcome to the quantifier a are you doing today doing well. Thanks. I just wanted that you explained that maybe the new onto the difference between sin and iniquity and transgression. Yet there there is overlap in the terms. Obviously transgression is as the word says transgressing something means this is this is an active breaking of the law.

Paul writes in Romans four, you can have transgression with her is the law right, and expensive, and that in the fifth chapter 2 transgression is an actual breaking of the Lord. It speaks most overtly of rebellion that would be the strongest in terms of of an act of sin is a very broad term yes it is true that originally in Hebrew and Greek. The terms refer to missing the mark but Sam is in any way falling short of God's glory. Sin is anything that we do that fall short iniquity has in it the sense of of wrong. This, of even perverseness so iniquity almost describes the wrong nature of what were doing sin speaks of falling short of God's standard and Mark and transgression speaks of of openly breaking his laws so they overlap with.

I would say those are the distinctions okay all right great thank you in my majority help all right 866-34-TRUTH let's go over to Bob in Maryland.

Welcome to the line of fire by Dr. Brown. My question comes from Malachi the second chapter. I was in a conversation with an Orthodox Jewish man. He was in government years ago might even know his name. If I mentioned it, but I was remarking how it seems that the Jewish faith was much more free about divorce and I was asking about a deal with Malachi 2 and he said all you misunderstand it if you going in Hebrew, you would understand that it's talking about Abraham had a more excellent spirit, if not talking about divorce.

I can imagine how regulation could be that far off the hangup of your answer. Okay, sure, sure thing know that that's completely untrue. It is true that Jewish teaching on divorce is been more liberal's missing was remarriage in Christian that's true, it is true that there is debate and and as to exactly how to translate the Hebrew, there but the idea that her sister about Abraham, the time of divorce was clearly talk about divorce, there is a rabbinic interpretation that really twist the text okay and this was the debate about can you divorce for any and every reason this is what Jesus is dealing with an sputum of the Pharisees in Matthew 19 can divorce for any and every reason or only because of sexual morality.

So the more strict school school semi-civilly. Sexual morality more liberal school, Hillel said, for any reason. So the verse used in support or for any reason is God hates divorce, which they end up translating.

If you hate her divorce her. If you hate her divorce her that certain elements as you find that the stone translation which reflects Orthodox Jewish thinking, but I'm I'm going to read to you from from the new. The new Jewish the Jewish publication Society version all right and out of first first are read from the NIV Malachi 2 beginning verse 10 do not have a one father did not want God create us what he profane the covenant of her ancestors by being unfaithful to one another and it goes on about marrying foreign women, etc. you for the altar Lord's altar with cheers and go on from there and then verse 15 has not the one God made you, you belong to my body and spirit. What is the one God seek all the offspring. So be on your guard, do not been faithful to the wife or your youth. Verse 16 from the NIV. The man who hates and divorces his wife says Lord of God of Israel does violence to the one he should protect says Lord a month since the. The NIV the ESV for the man who does not love his wife but divorces or covers his garment with violence of the new King James for the Lord God of Israel says that he hates divorce so clearly. All of these different verses are condemning divorce as wrong here, and as someone specially divorce his wife in the because the new Jewish publication Society translates it all up a backup did not. The one make us all said all remaining life breath is his and what does that one seek but godly focus of Jewish translation so be careful of your life breath and let no one break faith with the wife of his use for free, for I detest divorce, so the Lord, the God of Israel and covering oneself with lawlessness as with a garment so the question is does it say the man who hates his wife divorces her and that's equivalent to doing violence that's wrong or does it say that God hates divorce as well as once you bond since I've always understood it, because as he hates divorce, but it's absolutely about divorce and knowing Hebrew.

You know it's about divorce. It's the precise translation that's debated to translate it.

If you hate her divorce her. That's wrong. That's rabbinic interpretation that is deafening on that's why read from a Jewish translation to say hey chapters translation out there recognizes that this is about divorce, and the God opposes it, especially when there's no scriptural justification for it, so in this case, you are right and the orthodoxy was person you're talking to who knew Hebrew was wrong got this wrong okay will be right back. Take your calls.

On the other side of the break, 866-348-7884. Slicking a wide range of questions here okay, eager to get to them. On the other side of the break one more reminder when you sign up for our emails and Esther to Brown the k your brown the Lord. When you sign up for our emails.

Her voice make you sign up for emails rated as a line of fire with your host Dr. Michael Brown on the line of fire by calling 866343 here again is Dr. Michael Brown appreciated 866-348-7884.

Any question of any kind that relates to any subject we ever touch on here and on the far end of the ever written about said you've heard that you want to clarify, by all means give us a call and we go back to the phones let's see will go to Bob in Chattanooga, Tennessee. Thanks for calling the line of fire by Mark to keep your account psychological at all right now a lot on Monday. No show, it will grow over 30 years. He doubted only in the last three years. The program maintained and bring someone new money: an hour late Monday and Michael and talking to people that know amenorrhea patient no cure your shot better new do we know and what is right and negated. We did believe in Christ and no original call you, trying to get get you to give me that a boy understand there's only paper, should look on your deeply involved in village luckiest man for so long that you get almost like a psychological disease.

Michael Bishop Moore mind was to get a get a blue ribbon or retirement account to a 28 fire by loading target date is needed is a wiki, or to buy a pack of sugar as necessary nor am I can barely read Motorola's luggage your partners.

I never got around to doing it, but it almost circular patient. I can't write the bottle should used on a lightly congregated on his gear dearly, but are not in there.

I reminded Larson one sale that thought about suicide, but my club in a Christian should soon line on 75 years old son Lucius on the 45 stone was on for 30 years. My dad shave his workday were September 27. He was 45 just a week ago Mrs. Grogan and she was 13 years old.

The first bubble tennis. I'm so terribly sorry for it for your loss and honestly I can't put myself in your shoes of the lost child so I can imagine this is the agony of live with with your child's addiction for so many years and I'm sure you prayed cry dries out praying for him. And of course all only God can say what his eternal fate is only only God knows that I can say that and what's the use of cheap words, God is God, we we don't know what happened in his life for his in his final moments, but for sure there are people who are bound and they can't find a way to get free date they keep trying and they keep falling. II don't know why it happens to some people in these ways, I don't know why one person is able to get free and another not denied to drugs heavily for two years and got instantly set me free and and that was it. I notice it went back and forth, back and forth, or other said into teen challenge.

Like multiple times to the program before they got hold and others that they fell again so there God. God can help any of us right no matter who you are listening.

No matter what your situation, God can help you God can deliver you but yes it is true that some people look, I know people who are believers and struggle and they fall back. I don't believe that God condemn someone to hell for wrong act and, in other words, let's say someone was a believer. They been following Jesus by the struggle with alcohol and the relationship person to go with breaks up with them and they lose their job the same day than they find out that there one of the parents is dying of cancer.

They just get the press to go on have a drink and get the car accident.

The second to damn them to hell because in a moment of weakness they send and there are people human settlements as well. A person committed suicide.

They can't repent of that is that damn them to hell.

I don't know. And was it could be someone struggling with PTSD right and deep depression. And and they keep thinking that that some is common for them or their bombs go off at night.

They can take the torment of the pain and eight seek to end it. Does that mean that they damn their soul to hell do it. No him many times that the persons right mind is not there that they're not acting with your full faculty so ill of the loss is the loss I began. I can imagine what what you're living within and the massive hole that you're feeling right now because he's gone in and you can you can fit. You can't press a button, rewind, and you and you think of all the things you could've done different sources, not on you.

You gotta take the pressure off you it's it's not on you because God says of the children of Israel. He race the one way they did another thing so it's not all you if you could've done this better recoded than that better but what you have to just trust is that the God that you love who is incredibly merciful and long-suffering along with perfectly just that. He'll do the right thing there when it comes your son that you be able to look the Lord in the eye and no that he's on the right thing and you know can you maintain hope that you see your son Walter, I would maintain hopes of the last moment, you know, but but you can also be tormented by this thought because you don't know what's happened to them. What is lost forever. You don't know that only God knows the state of his heart. God knows if he cried out what's going on with his life, but of everybody listening and watching right now, I know there are others in the midst of tragedy with this is the lower hearing on the year would would would you join me right now Bob is is as we pray for you father we come to you as children, very, very wary, weak and frail little, little human beings to you. Great, and we pray for Bob, your son, Lord, who is hurting, he's hurting badly now is a massive hole like that can't be filled.

So I pray in the midst of his grief and limits the very real pain because of his love for son that you would draw near to him that she would be his comfort that you would carry him and that he recognize your presence in his life in a stronger way than he has in years and this terrible situation and another Fenton of death plague. You know how it is in America, Lord, I ask you God to turn this around to bring good out of it, even salvation and redemption out of it for others. In Jesus name and friends, especially those of you that can relate to Bob's grief really taken onto the pray him through these days. Thank you, thank you for the call that it means a lot that you called in all, I wrote an article should website I see should because we have thousands of articles and videos that we been transferring to her brand-new completely revamped website about fennel and and I rode it to honor a colleague whose grandson that fell, not knowing he was taken that not that noise can overdose it's it's real plague. May the Lord bring good out of this 86678841. Less about 866-348-7884.

Let's go to Marco in West Palm Beach, Florida. Thanks for calling the line of fire about what I'm doing well thank you great outbreak only question you need what only thing Ma reportedly think they now are, no moment, no angel, but my father yeah think that I've been thinking about people in the most obvious answer is that he said is human being on the earth before his resurrection, and not everything was revealed to him even though he was omniscient he he lay down the privilege of that.

In other words, I don't believe that every minute of every day that Jesus had full knowledge of everything happening in the universe as he would have had he not been in the flesh. He willingly laid aside the prerogatives. That's why he do think he generally got tired to think that he faked sleeping which what your view believe that I got tired and you think he faked being hungry or that he was generally hungry right right so this the same way so he limited himself to to be a human being in the same way.

I don't believe that he could speak every language on the planet that he could have drawn on his divine ability to do it but he didn't visit. He willingly laid down that privilege. So in the same way.

He didn't know everything Mary said in John five. I can only do what I see my father doing so the Lord would show them things the Lord would reveal things to him. That's his father would reveal things the Spirit would that's how he knew them. So speaking is a human being. He had limitations and that's why he couldn't say the day or the hour that he is returning to. I believe the multi-was resurrected that that he then operated in the fullness of his deity. Yes. So that would now be fully known to him. This was said as a man. The incarnation was real. The eternal son took on human form and human weakness that human sin but human weakness and willingly laid aside his divine prerogative, so we needed to eat and sleep like anyone else he needed to learn to walk. He needed to learn to read and to write just like everyone else, because he laid aside his omniscience, his omnipresence, and these other things as the son of God on the earth all right me vulture that he will be in. Gotta thank you Mark Ari the argumentation right overseas. He did not draw on the fullness of his deity is great question. Great follow-up question so let me reach you from Philippians the second chapter. Okay the way the way Paul writes that there this is the key passage you want to study. Philippians 2 a.

Beginning in verse five have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus, who, though he was in the form of God did not cry not count equality with God a thing to be graphs of the sea was you hold onto it, but he emptied himself, taking the form of a servant, being born in the likeness of man and being found in human form, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on the cross. Therefore God has highly exalted him Mr. him the name that is above every name, so that's the that's what happened, emptied himself, took on human form willingly laid down his divine could have drawn on them did not act example with the line of fire with your host Dr. Michael Brown on the line of fire by calling 86634 through here again is Dr. Michael Brown, so I'm go back to the phones momentarily, but just to say this, let's let's say that you are mixed martial artists so you can rest so you know jujitsu and you can box and you can kick box. Now you're going into the ring. Sorry for commonality member talk about spiritual things, but now you're going to be a kickboxing event so you can't wrestle. You can use jujitsu you. You can use certain types of strikes you could use a mixed martial arts because other things are your kickboxer in your box right so okay, you've got skills we kickboxer, but you can kick now so there are ways where we can limit ourselves.

You know that the massive football player you're built like a rock, and strongly is playing with his little daughter. This whole these gentlemen so there is a restraining of of the normal power and might, to be gentle so it's there, it's just not drawn out.

Again, these are not precise analogies but the Lord willingly laid down his divine prerogatives when he was on the earth. That's why he talked about driving out demons by the Spirit of God that that ET field and drove out demons by the spirit. Acts 1038 Peter talks about how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and power and went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil. So he was not was a Satan and in Luke four quote from Isaiah 61 the spirit of the Lord. Zombie, because he has anointed me. Why was he anointed, because he laid aside divine prerogatives and now by the power of the spirit did what he did all right. Let's go to Orlando and High Point, North Carolina. Welcome to the line of fire door. Michael doing well thank you will bless you feel baffled gentlemen, they called me they really hurt me. Yeah, the spring would you think you might my question my question deals with the millennial you talk to somebody while ago because I left the church that you still beat both. They started teaching about another one living in the millennial and I just couldn't find it in the Bible is a tried to tell me stuff about words that then and the devil was bound but I just don't feel could you explain a little bit. Yes.

Also I had a friendly debate with Dr. Sam storms dear brother good friend great theologian, scholar, Pentecostal or charismatic as well so I most part of the debate with him and and some some of the professors about the end times about the millennial kingdom. So III did push hard on that note Revelation 20 that Satan is bound that referred to now there's no way under the sun that I could see really Revelation 20 that the binding of Satan that he is currently bound so we can go out to deceive the nations civil dismiss can't deceive the nations to engage in an antiwar. How can Satan be bound in a bottomless pit. Let's just say that's a spiritual image right. How can Satan be around in a bottomless pit right now so we can't deceive the nations where's Peter says, be sober, be vigilant. First Peter 578 be sober and vigilant, because your adversary the devil goes about as a will is roiling seeking who may be human made drought resistant, steadfast in the faith, or Jacob James IV after resist the devil and healthfully and all the warnings to the New Testament about Satan's deceiving ways that we have to resist and be stronger. Ephesians 6 right that our battle is not with flesh and blood.

Both principalities and powers. There there under the that the domain of Satan. So he's out of there about so it completely breaks down.

So the argument is it's a spiritual kingdom and the reign of Jesus, of spiritual and took to bring Israel back into this, to be in the natural world was carnal or or something. No, absolutely not accorded ask the third chapter of the 19th universe 19 that Peter says that Jesus will remain in heaven until the time of the restoration of all things. The Greek word use. There is is often used in the Septuagint, the Greek translation of the Hebrew Bible about the restoring of the Jewish people back to the land he must stay in heaven until the time at an and then what will happen is all that the prophets have spoken everything they've spoken will happen what'd they speak about. They talked about all the nation streaming up to Jerusalem and ask it in and I say the second chapter to learn from the God of Israel.

They talked about Isaiah 11, which are referenced with the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord and in will be no more war and no one hurting each other.

The Wolf Lyondell of the Lamb and the little child, leading them that that's when these things are going to happen.

These glorious wonderful promises of the prophets that haven't happened yet. They will happen in at the end of it only millennial right right that's when Satan is bound during the millennial kingdom. That's one reason to be so glorious at the end he sluiced and there's a final rebellion was the front rebellion. I look at it is God's way of saying human being, say, why would you believe in God but there's too much suffering on the earth or III would've believed in God, but but you know because of this, because that will that will be the case during the millennium, God will be right there. God will be accessible Jesus will be really raining out of Jerusalem and and there'll be perfect justice on the earth where this injustice and Senate will be dealt with right so I end of it. When Satan comes to deceive people are still going to show their sinful nature by rebelling against God, even though they lived in this glorious world. It will be a final proof that God's ways are good and that the reason for the problem is not because of God but because of us.

Yes or teach that were in the millennial kingdom and also denies the promises to Israel as is the restoration of the Jewish people back to the lab means nothing. Why, pray tell, is Jesus coming back to Jerusalem. Why Jerusalem wanted someone else you know so you date me. Keep taking baking teak ended. There we are, Israel, and I don't see a big no-no itinerary and got a replacement yet it's it's very it's if it's a serious error. This was not held to for centuries in the early church. You gotta go. At least three 400 years of church history before anyone started teaching that the millennium was spiritual. Only it was widely believed that there be a thousand year reign of Jesus. Revelation 20 mentions a thousand you think six different times. There and the other has to be a literal fulfillment of the literal promises to the prophets. Jesus in Matthew 1928 tells his disciples that in the time of the renewal of all things that they will rule and reign over the 12 tribes of Israel also yeah that's that's something with all respect to those who teach. I could not sit under. I would have to especially the teaching that the church is now Israel. That's that's led to wrong treatment of the Jews through history because the church is there is regards them with the oath Israel so Jude you have yet do you have a mild active commitment yeah it it it can often it can often lead to that. You have my book, our hands are stained with blood right talk about anti-Semitism is Miller. I do have it. Yes, if if if you look at that again you'll see some of the the common roots. There and and the end of the book dealing with God's promises to Israel. They will be fulfilled. So now I know what they will do absolutely and that means the millennial kingdom.

Hey Orlando grace to meet may find very much might you find a new church home. You bet you bet I 866-34-TRUTH.

Let's try Estelle again in Greenville, South Carolina. Hopefully we got to the stage on the line and Dr. Brown.

I just wanted to run carrier, one who brought the child. I've got Bob on my prayer list. Thank you, devastating things that I just wanted to tell you that a lady called in the other day she couldn't understand how Jesus, the Holy Spirit and God are one and one day I was praying and I asked Jesus will answer you if you ask him any tell me to look at this time look directly at the time and I did and he said I done the math.

The Holy Spirit is the fire in the energy of light and it was like wow I understand looking at it from another. It sometimes a little simple. Restoration is enough to click in our mind when I thought of the sun. I thought of that.

So the core of the sun. We can even see right the natural coastal I've seen that just another way of looking at that I've seen that as the father John 118 no one seen God in the time you and the father first Timothy six that he dwells in unapproachable light, which no one, no one can see.

So that's the father the source. The Corbett hidden his glory and the more you see signs shining forth similar what you're saying we see shining forth. That's the sun. The sun makes the father know if you see me in the photo but the SON son and then were touched by the rays of the sun, the heat of the summer.

That's invisible S Holy Spirit rights of the Holy Spirit working invisibly among us know were dealing with, and in adamant*right that the sun is opposed to a living being. God but yet these these things are helpful and just another reminder to us that there can be complex.

There is only one son, and yet distinct different aspects to it. In this case, distinct father-son spirit, but explicitly one God. Hey I'm I'm glad that that they open the Ford and that that insight from the Lord helped you.
