Matt Slick Live

The following program is recorded content created by the Truth Network mass Y is the founder and president of listed apologetics research was found alive as hard for you have questions of our Bible doctrines is a max likewise glances goals in responding to your questions at 877207276 here's Matt slick portable show me Matt slick and I wanted to be called to do was dialing 772072276 and things going to look at rectors video thing and to hear from you all right know good questions, but theology you got questions about anything you know all kind of stuff people call up all of you to do was so is give me a call.

I'm trying to set up some debates have been so busy lately. Sexual oneness debates go one in September.

I don't want to set up with oneness groups pretty hurt you probably fix it up today and I have been working real hard today on the schools try to get these things.

So with that we have.

The schools are huge chest huge yet a lot of people do a lot of work on try to get them ready and that were slowly manifesting what we do manifest in the.

The schools are left there for you guys a heads up that we also have just in case register.

We have a prayer ministry if you need prayer want to pray and I get to do is so you don't just on contact us at prayer at Carmen.org prayer@comm.org and would be able to you don't check you out and if you have prayers of the prayer request, we have a team of people who are will willing and ready to be able to help you so and pray for the issues so there you go right down so you know I was going to some stuff today and I thought it might be worth discussing one particular issue that a lot of Christians this and that issue is, of all things, the judgment that we Christians will face. Now we have passed out of condemnation for me now.

Romans 81, but Christians don't know this, that we are going to face God in a judgment of our works now. Our works are to be charged and you can find this in first Corinthians 3 starting in verse 12 now if any man builds on the foundation of gold, silver, precious stones would a straw. Each man's work will become evident for the day will show it because it is to be revealed with fire and the fire itself will test the quality of each man's works. If any man's work which he has built up on it remains, he will receive a reward. If any man's work is burned up, you will suffer loss, but he himself will be saved is through fire and so what this verse 2315, the last park there and is this something that a lot of Christians need to be aware of the reason I'm mentioning it is because as I was going through the lessons and doing stuff that stuck in my mind and I thought I wonder if people need to hear this on the radio and I think I just need to eat a little bit of a lesson for all of it. We Christians are not going to be judged for damnation, but we are going to be judged according to our works, whether we will have a reward or loss of reward and X can be the presence of God in heaven. Now what is that mean I don't know what reward is it well here's a thought of God says that he has things for us that we are not even aware of how good it's going to be reward in heaven, and loss of reward in heaven were so to be in heaven but to think about this. Folks, what gifts you have for God and or given by God and how are you using them for the glory of God for the furthering of his kingdom, or have you buried them and don't want to use anything don't want to risk anything before God, because Mikey ridiculed my job.

You might get embarrassed where it might be consider that eternity is where we are headed in on and I want to have as many rewards as possible, but not for the purpose simply in my heart, not just for the purpose of having rewards, but for glorifying God with them.

See you be rewarded according to in Christ and for the Lord and for his kingdom and for his glory.

And that's where the reward will come with the verses but it's talks about revelation where we lay our crowns down before the Lamb, so we will have an opportunity in heaven do to receive a reward. But it's due to his glory and his presence and we will love to be able to praise him for what he has done in us, but there still is the responsibility that we have, to move forward and do what we can for him. Don't carry your talents or your your gift existed to Jamaal from North Carolina. Jamaal welcome your on the air. Hope that you all are doing well and a question about the Oakley know they'll shut not judge can't recall the Scriptures to that we can point things out to the Christians, the Wednesday not to another Christian, are treated by they say will know… Judgment know there's something in Scripture for talk about it saying that you can't get going out wrong as Christian, I just wanted us right in its first just to 15 and what it says they're okay for he was spiritual praise and all things that he himself is appraised by no man by no one. So what we are able to do is make spiritual judgments and says no, thou shalt not judge is not judging one's salvation in an arbitrary sense, we are able to make the conference, and we should make judgments so you know if the Bible tells us that unless you believe that I am as God says much, but I am you will die in your sins then asked Johnny. 24 then we can say to somebody look if you reject Jesus you will not be able to go to heaven. You need to trust what Christ has done all you you can judge me. You can't judge me right in this. You don't. Matthew seven verse one judge not, that ye be not judged. And so this is what what the people they want to do is they use the Bible out of context in order to go in the this is not judge let so you will not be judgment.

271 and unbelievers in particular will use this verse so that they can say this out on them, to a Christian, don't judge me for my sin did leave me alone or I want to use that verse in order to continue in their sin, but it was talking about.

It says for the way that you judge will be judged by your standard of measure the measure. Do you Matthew 72 and not take the speck out of your brother's eye view. Be careful about what it is that you are judging to be hypocrites because we talk about verse five the log out of your own eye you hypocrite, and so he's a tight budget being judgmental, gossipy, nonjudgmental, but we do have the right to make spiritual judgments and slots on the said don't judge us to be judged once again you judge someone's active murderers being wrong and not disabled guest or not you judge and yet that's different lately.

Why is it and see get into it actually means in the context because when people can't usually quote that verse with someone they are often quoting way out of context. Okay alright go experiment is always goblet and God bless you, okay folks with lines like, you may call 87720722761 here and you have the several open lines. Let's get to Ray from Iowa. He really welcome on here I brother my call problem that we got my dad the military man and he picked up the Baha'i faith. I believe somewhere in Egypt or stop them over the years and I just wonder a little more about it you will speak to me our course I'm born again believer and he got me a job many years ago which I quit, and I've been told. He said he never wants to speak to me again and from what I understand he said I'm supposed to be treated like an infidel that there's both to try to help somebody after that, you're on your own.

But when I stand behind us both to be very loving and forgiving a lawyer is a gift like the rest of that we don't practice what we preach.

Well have an article on Baha'i on on Carmen was started by getting a hot little and it's a form of SLR out for this long and but it's not.

It is as Kenneth came out of it and then just departing from it and so it teaches that God is completely sovereign, but it also teaches that there are prophets different kinds of profits for different areas at different ages and so Moses and Abraham like Islam are prophets, as is Mohammed and Jesus, but also Buddha would be a prophet were neither Islam nor Christian would recognize that Buddha as and as a prophet or Confucius that Mary Abood one that met over all and they teach the unification of the human race in side of the Baha'i faith and it denies the doctrine of the Trinity that denies the crucifixion and resurrection of Christ can hardly walk and now understand how father can do that though it but I do have a heavenly father. I'm sorry if I ever do get a chance to come across them. I don't know what I would even faith alone. Finally well throughout kindest situation like that, that's right. You know sometimes people in occult is a world-class level cult. Sometimes I need to hear a quick word of if you die in this you can go to eternal fire. Jesus says so you know and he said I don't hear from you. Okay, fine. But those words are his head. Or you could ask something like, why is it that you are being loving doesn't the prophet Jesus teach love because I affirm Jesus as a prophet yeah but they often believe God buddy out the hole in the lower right right by Willa and so his revelation negates in and supersedes others. We can ask does it contradict is God's revelation to the different props convict each other will decant and Marty not being loving so the same logical revelations, and if that's the case why would Jesus say he alone is the way the truth and the life and since he is a prophet of God. How is it that his work could be corrupted is that all kind of thing you could say in their have answers and didn't go in and tickle more practice, but if I were you and I do feel for you empathize with family members who are… They won't talk to me because of a Christian, and other stuff and… How does know you have finally traveled the world and got all the fight fighting like the goal of all over the world and people, there it is in the newspaper now a lot and I just I just don't get it. One day camp for our guest bath, clearly establishing still pray for somebody brother while very much out. I'll check out the website for more goblet okay thank you bye-bye fifthly for lines to give me a call 877-207-2276 are smart, but they: messages again. Hey folks, my date 772076 mass Y call 770727. Here is Matt's life. Robert will show if a few open lines give me a call 77072276 Mark from East Bend airline welcome you mock what is really easy to report like no you know which Bible do you read from what version are you ready, NASB 95 study. I know the mall and I got a small church were strict but you know King James version you find your quote number and right mama, but I'm curious what is right.

You notify the call report youth dialogue are version the baby in her. I was curious about that and when you say the kind will the advantages of reading the King James preaching from it is. It sounds spiritual and you have extra sermon time you need to take up in explaining what it means. With this the different language issues that I got but we don't speak in these in the house here you know if your after witnessing the somebody in the beach and see I grew up in Southern California most of my life and I go to the beach I river the first time I would start putting the King James people looking like what it dawned on me steadily wrong. Don't use that physics stumbled people because equity some of these in the house. What are you talking about and I abandoned that right away and I went to a different version. I ended up with a NASB because I study apologetics, and it's a very good translation is literal as possible to the original languages, and so I just never look back. After that King James fine. People want to use it, use it going Gil. No big deal, but the it's not not perfect and it messes up on on a few things. Romans 518 is my favorite thing I point out that it gets very wrong in his translation… It's a it's a good to good translation. Overall, I'm hello my day was revived for its rock regular Baptist is not an event. When you say Trinity which we we strongly believe you when you say it here, father, son and Holy Spirit. When they preach. It is father-son and the Holy Ghost is remote is my just not being St. James and sister King James is him Holy Ghost that that's that's that's no big deal. It's like the work was the word I don't go to a latte which is the Hebrew letters that we form Yahweh will. It could be a way you play or are you, you know there's different ways of pronouncing is that the big deal and Jesus in Greek is actually the Asus EA I a EA sues the Asus route and so we see Jesus, but in the Spanish is Jesus. So what's the right way to say it. God knows and diffusing translation is not an issue.

And so the Holy Ghost issue is, is the same thing as Holy Spirit or Holy Ghost. Both are fine. There might your auto die will be and I really enjoyed your program, first time caller and I hope you're learning God bless you God. Well, you know, I just want to give glory to my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ because he took this filthy vile occultist who is into bad stuff and save me in spite of myself and then use me even when I was seeking to run from him at certain times. He's the merciful King and Lord and so he gets all the glory. That's it for is guiding me amen it's right I you to our accomplice all right three open lines 87720776 Roger from North Carolina. Welcome. You're on the today I am doing okay. Hang in there where your buddy go back our call with your doctor about your first or bait by grace could not be the best you started talk about if you could "buyout by an outside favor or not I get here the end of that conversation. I was wanted. Yes, demonic forces can influence us. One of the euro as of this is in first Chronicles 21 one then Satan stood up against Israel and moved David to number Israel. So, that's right. There's recorded for criminal Chronicles 21, one, so can they influence us. Yes, that's what it says I have to conclude just possible okay well at better lying around like to buy.

I want hearing accurate out my miser Joe at that conversation sent on a regular doing to something up the it does not mean the that were going around begins with a double in everything we do we have to look at every corner. You know there's a devil behind it.

You demonic phone that is not how it works but just to the simple ask and answer the question is can we be enforced. Yes, we can now the question then becomes to what degree and how often. But if you're walking in the light, then, less and less money walk in the light, the less influencing demonic forces could have another way demonic forces could influence us is the devil get on the demonic forces have their servants and the servants can do bad thing. Even the people don't believe that they are working with the enemy computer work for God.

He worked for the enemy. That's how it works. Ultimately, so we did have bad people who are influence demonically because they give themselves over to bad thing for even Satanism or whatever… The Colts you know Mormonism jewels witnesses in Islam, the fossils in the oath. Roman Catholicism demonic forces are at work within those groups will, in those people could influence you negative effect. You may be drive badly and wreck your car. You know who knows. So there's different ways in different levels that we can be influenced right okay all right but the Bible says where's that first grader see greater is he who is in you than he does in the world that's first John 44II don't want to buy to worry about that stuff. Okay, we are saved by grace were kept by grace, God indwells us and though technically you can be influence. That way, what is it means not in our hearts were you make us think things could not enemy doesn't do that thing with us. So anyway that's what you know and 30 go. Gets open. Lines 87720722 Rick, High Point, North Carolina.

Welcome here.

Hello are you there Rick, okay, let's see how you doormat you go all right. You don't hang in there already got a buddy of God. Following this comment on how one really very there's music you hold, hold after the break arrival. Yes I will, yes, I will all right evoke three open lines even call 87707276 max Y call 770-7276.

Here is Matt's leg back to the shows back on. It was written, High Point, North Carolina. Rick welcoming on here you wanted to collect wanted to comment all your original great Bible all different versions on the Holy Ghost and how to screw your ride to Brentwood when you read version that you spoke to me personally I like the term Holy Spirit for one reason God's word.

I will leave you popular in the Holy Spirit that lives inside of you to many of those is too much like an entity of happiness with no criminal motion does not bar something so I just like to think that they get a hold instead Holy Spirit is a sodomy.

But why I called, actually called to apologize to you for yesterday. I called and you had to talk over me tool three times because McKay K number when I get to goings.

I'm working on it. I get on the land that you had a great great great Rick. So now so down on the call. Apologize to you for that because I treasure you as a mentor but that's okay. I treasure you as a mental but what I'm doing today is a college at a nonqualified health. Could you give me from capital vices in the Bible for me to study and read my hyper high for this and exotic.

Now keep in mind I might be legally a type A but I'm not physically feel me. My health is great. I want to study guide from you to help me with this thank you to help you with what is.

Maybe hyper and exotic it is that in the Bible that I could edit it to slow me down hello hello made out a band like distance. I will dictate what sounds to me you know like yes you held are you okay now okay because I the actually the same way it's taken me years to slow that's a slowdown well then you go, you go the hall and ice to us because when I ask are you so call me tell you what I I've worked on that lot because of some versus Colossians 3, four and five line of thought is therefore reasonable Colossians for five and six… Just read the click Colossians 4, five and six which says conduct yourself with wisdom toward outsiders make the most of the opportunity. Let your speech always be with grace as though seasoned with salt, so that you may know how I should respond to each person and so that's one of the verses that speaks to me and because a lot of people don't know this that I used. I was a freight train and get on and smart memory can think of my feet and I would destroy people.

And of course the Lord in his great patience corrected me, but it says in second Timothy 224 and 20 through 26.

This one really got to me. The Lord's bondservant must not be quarrelsome, but be kind to all, able to teach patient went wrong with gentleness correcting those who are in opposition of perhaps God may grant them repentance leading to the truth and they may come to their senses and escape from the devil, having been held captive by him to do his will so that we speaks to me to be patient okay so I need to listen to people do that a lot, but you never sent some emails are generally filled up is that I would lose for a long time doing radio now for over 16 1/2 years and sometimes people get on any just wanted hold those through while there speaks a skewing heresy and I had to stop and so I can't tell who's going to say what in the future may hold on something that's all a big deal but your good guy but what up like that and I bonded under the study guide where the similarities are great thank you but like in Atlanta but thank you okay is that I got out all right will. Thanks, Abed okay well this the language but what a will. Let's get to Matt from San Francisco, California that's posting a call for open lines 877-207-2276. Let's get get to meditate welcome on the house on somebody so it my question is it you familiar with the international church of Christ.

Yes okay I think I'm being recruited you (someplace know what I'm in the Bay Area and that a lot of the universities in such and I what happened to be at a food court with my son and suddenly this Bible study form around that I most of the most of people were like college-age, but a couple of the guys that were in charge of the study. They were a bit older and we got invited to stay in participate in the Bible study and that it was like talking little bit afterwords and being asked to go to lunch next day for sure and I just thought is like to know fellow Christians, but they seem to be it's out of a script that sort of thing out for lunch with the guys like focusing on like purity standards in the position of the groupings with it all sounded good and everything but it is difficult and descriptive and never really heard of the international want to get into well a lot of explanation about them basically to cult doing is the use love bombing it safe, a practice that the Congress will do is they will get to know you treat you very well praise you a lot help you a lot because love all over you, and it lowers your guard disintegrates and they gradually do in this process tell you things and get you to believe and getting the group and trust in the group than a recruit recruit you to do the same kind of thing. Now the ICC is called international Church of Christ teaches that baptism is required for salvation. But before you even get baptized you to become a true disciple and true discipleship is manifested in their church and what they have is what's called is a word for it. When I did, my mind goes blank in a certain term, but what it is is they are the leaders of the group will require. It's a sinless party. Are you making noise in the background or I'm not the traffic okay finger and so with little do is they have sin lists and what you're supposed to do once you get in the group is have meetings with your leaders and then you list out all your sins literally list paper they keep a record of your sins.

Then he become in control of your of your life and you're supposed to submit to the dissent to the decisions of the described Illinois Becker and regarding things even if you married on your physical relations with your spouse, they can try and control what jobs you take a where you moved to etc. so it's a cult. Stay away from it yeah yeah yeah I just started looking into information online or on my lunch break and I like it, though, like the Bay Area international Christian church but I couldn't find anything online for an international Christian church combining international Church of Christ downtown and find out which group because the ICC is one thing but there can be other groups different, how they might be trying to get a different name so people can't recite that yeah because I didn't win negative item out. They got invited to church service on Sunday and they were all about hugging a it like when you're talking about and really loving on you and some of the people I've heard online on YouTube and that they used to be part of the international Church of Christ. Everything is stance is very similar to the way that these people were operating in think they were focusing on certain term are still in contact ask if baptism is required for salvation. But if you do go again. Whatever get literature and send it to me because different retailers supposed to go to some group at a park with people this Sunday places I will not know what to do at night and not get me recruited, but will tell you if I was staring the area I'd say dude, let's let's get going. Let's all go with you as you look at there's a break, but my man I'll think you have less all right evokes three of the lines 877207276. The writeback mass Y.

Call 770776 charismatic slave Michael from Utah. Welcome Matt. I call my question about when I was a young Christian early 70s in Utah and after mostly knew the Greek in the Salt Lake area you you to get a teaching certificate and there was little group of us were Catholic charismatics that attended church any you would teach in that idol. I left the church right after teaching that the it was okay to port baby because of they had taken their first breath yet forget saying you're using Metadata had but yeah I like that I don't I don't know the Greek refute that. But I know that's not right. I could if I were in the past that if I was in prison the past we talked I would review Rebuking for such foolishness fiercely. Later on I do that the baby in the Greek is baby baby in the manger and the baby that left him the world work is the same word in the Greek well enough that the finder see here's the thing. Simple logic can be used. To refute these morons who teach this stuff so the baby somehow is not human, until it takes a breath, wait a minute.

So in the womb.

It's not breathing, but as Susan takes a breath.

Now it's nature has been changed from nonhuman to human by the act of taking a breath. Yeah it's ludicrous. It's ludicrous. Evolutionists units anyway you so all right. There's a lot of bad people think that okay will – no more yeah well me to get you already folks for the lines you may call 877-207-2276. Let's get to know from Utah and welcome. How are you I'm fine how are you if you think about all tomorrow's world will sink its I think it's a break often worldwide Church of God and the okay right so I'm doing is looking on a website that has submissive and yet it's occult okay I'm going through some of the stuff and yeah it's occult stay way from okay okay and I would like to enroll in an online thyroid. You looking for some kind of Bible and going back on have definitely think that you will but not letting that a that Ernie and the 40 had nothing. I think being that dad is it's about to distinguish from yeah in Jan going through some of the soffit and tomorrow's world yet is another thing that's so many things and work on maybe a little bit of an exposé on you and I would love I would note anything okay thank you God bless a falsely African lines. If you want to give me a call 877-207-2276. I don't know who this is where you from your on the air when he got buddy Pam or whoever you're on the hello oh come on out what he wanted beyond some people think that they felt that all of my leg being an after leaving that right that by now they know that I know the Bible about right. The Bible says were chosen. Second Thessalonians 213 says we have been chosen for salvation which would that's what the Bible says all right. For example, still another lot in life will not type this in churches because I know why it's what he says but we should always give thanks to God for you, brethren beloved by the Lord, because God has chosen you from the beginning for salvation through sanctification. That's what it says and also everything that's no help and not everyone is chosen for salvation. I'm covering the Scriptures is what it says okay in Romans nine talks about God has mercy on whom he desires. He hardens whom he desired okay.

Proverbs 16 four says that God makes everything, even the wicked for the day of destruction.

In Romans 922 and 23 it talks about vessels of wrath prepared for destruction in Mark 410 through 12. Jesus speaks in parables of people will not be forgiven of their sins. When I tell people stuff like this there shocked because they've never heard this in all the years of being in church which is a travesty because I'm I can call you the references I can call you the Scriptures. This is what it says and means people are not teaching all counsel of God with their often are presenting is what I call the blonde haired blue-eyed Caucasian surfer Jesus dressed in a woman's nightgown and he so gentle and he wants everyone to be safe. This is completely up to you and that's it. That's not in the Bible that Jesus said you cannot come to me unless it's been granted to you from the father. John 665. That's what he says pretty shocking home phone or your might take all all right will you welcome. Just keep studying the Scriptures because what I'm saying is right there in the Scriptures is reading the words what it says okay I all right got bless it to Brian from Texas, a bright welcoming on here hello brother Matt actually your call. Your call got one question I Don't want to be studied logic a little bit become a clear thinker, but your opinion with that book or course to study traditional logic and my second question that a lot of that the mission of the first. I don't know I don't study logic formally. I have gone through some books on formal logic within five or 10 pages you get lost because they do the super complex.

Whatever the symbols of symbolic logic. What I prefer is just to learn the fallacies of the of logic because if you learn the fallacies of logic then you can identify a lot more stuff very quickly and so what I would suggest is he just left finder resort to says we don't a list of logical fallacies, and you can go through and I'll tell you, you can learn so much so quickly and also you need to study, do research on the foundation or the classical laws of logic.

The classical laws of logic of identity law of non-contradiction law of excluded middle law proper inference and things like that.

If you study those things you'll be way ahead.

It even and then I keep and the second question is a lot of like the aberrant altar religion. They they rely on like like that Apparition like CM, of all things or something like that in would be your best advice and if you ever somebody believe that they have genuine spiritual experience not be deceived. All spirit. The word of God is the final authority for the Christian and for all people no longer recognize that, but it is the final and ultimate authority thing here. This is logic again. Logically speaking, everyone has a worldview perspective, a set of ideas they used to interpret the world and react relates in the world have presuppositions. It's a worldview. What is are the foundations of their worldview. Do they have an ultimate standard of truth and ultimate standard of morality.

If there ultimate standard is themselves, then logically speaking, it's subjective and not absolute because that which is a standard of based on yourself cannot be universal because it's only for yourself, so it cannot be an ultimate standard of truth. So therefore what we need is an ultimate standard and the ultimate standard must rest in the heart and the mind of God, since God is in all places at all time and God is that universal mind, not in the New Age sense of that phrase. Universal mind what he's everywhere all the time. Truth is likewise in abstraction, as are the laws of logic and so the law of logic.

The lot identity something is what it is and is not what it is not is an abstraction and you don't find that law under a rock. You can measure the law. It has no properties like that. It's occurs in the mind, but it's a universal mind therefore implies universal truths. Excuse me therefore implies a universal mind behind it. Because abstract values exist inside the universality of the mind and so these. This is how you use logic about the very nature of logic and furniture truths when you're talking to people who have a subjective standard of truth and you have to point out that the subjective standard is not universal because it subjective. The can't know if it's true because they're just using their own standard to determine truth, not the standard of God to determine the truth and so therefore it cast doubt on their own methodology enrolled on your own worldview.

Does that make sense. I guess her but like you, some of it.

Some of the people with say I got it all. And they say well you know the prophet and the apostles. They had the same pipes or similar type of experience you are saying that you get that.

Three.

Get the Scriptures that you go to Matthew 10 Jesus gave the disciples certain authority didn't give it to their descendents, and the Bible's Jesus is the law, the prophets were until John. Look for a John 1414. I think it is. And so there are no more prophets and apostles like that. It's done right. It's just done so with her doing with people have latter-day prophets latter-day revelation, the new using experience to undermine the truth of God's word and God lets them have that self-deception because I don't trust his word, which is the final revelation of God to us in the form okay.

Okay. Thank you. Welcome buddy.

God bless. All right. Well folks it was perfect timing, there is the music of the show, by his great great back on there tomorrow. I hope you listening that if you question you think about something right now. The Lord blessed this evening.
