Matt Slick Live

The following program is recorded content created by the Truth Network mass like why is the founder and president of apologetics and research what is found alive at the car in the morning you have questions about Bible doctrine is a max why Grimes is called responding to your questions at 877 September 13, 2021.

I hope that all of you have a good weekend. It was your 20 anniversary of court's review of three twin towers planning bombings or mention it's a reminder where I was.

Since no San Diego and in her apartment downtown, overseeing the end of the liquid to a news website and I yelled at my wife and said hey hon someone hacked the unit website and so that the twin towers fallen were on fire and time – she said really says oh yes, it's really good hacked job to look good and then 15 minutes later looked again when we turn on the news and of course you go so I will say is that no sympathy to people of lost families were affected by that.

I have a friend who was one of the first responders at 9/11 on site and he's got health issues because of the asbestos chemicals ingested and I think he's one of five left out of 20 or 23 years of his team and on Saturday I do privilege. Also one avian set to be the Trinity channel which was up to Europe and Africa. I think India also now and South Africa, South America, was able to host a discussion between three experts and varying areas degrees we discussed Mohammed and Jesus and the nature of God's love and I thought it was good.

I thought it was so entertaining and none will either was really in front of my I enjoyed it. I enjoyed it is a privilege ability that reminds me on the 500 anniversary of Martin Luther's nailing the other. The 95 thesis to the Wittenberg door. I had the privilege of preaching on that subject to so you think like a small bit. They're important and I'm grateful to the Lord for allowing things like that today here to Boise, Idaho area. We had the arrival of none other than Biden was here and I went out with my wife and some other friends we held up signs and let me just say that what we were hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of people and I took pictures and we tell you the crowds that were there with signs and a lot of them I'm showing them on on the video right now but you can be careful, because some of these are pretty foul about like and I mean hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of people were out there and the Secret Service was out there helicopter flying around the whole bit. And we were there with signs protesting the protest Biden. I do not approve of him as opinion, what 8785 three $7 billion worth of weapons given to the enemy and hundreds of people left in Afghanistan, Americans that don't. He said all who want to get out another one out and people are hiding being sought after being killed by the Taliban and he's left them there. People are very upset and there was great to see a lot of people who were standing up. We had to to BLM people that were there they were escorted by the police to make sure that no one assaulted them in and find it it wouldn't of been sold assaulted anyway because we believe in peace and soloist.

Someone said, and rightfully so, then reverse it was a pro Biden thing and those to say trump supporters. Let's say was going to with a have been safe, not at all, but nevertheless there is a Nancy foot guy there as well and it was just interesting to look to see.

I talked of the NT fungi and also talked to a guy from the Associated Press who was out there.

Nice guy. We talked a little bit didn't give me any information.

Try to use with mission but anyway so is a big crowd a lot of people out there and it was really something.

It was really something to see all of that and glad to be an American and glad that we have the right so far to to assemble, and to resist tyranny and I believe that your attorney coming down.

I do because I don't believe that the I don't believe that people Washington really hearing the Constitution also. Anyway, you may call for open lines 877-207-2276 is good to David from Kansas City. They welcome you are on the air you Matt shot I got my pastor yesterday. He had a great sermon on giving up until he brought Malachi 38 13 into the equation and applied Christians today are we under that thing we don't give our God, no. Now McGinty since theology right so there's doctrine called federal headship federal headship means that the male female with a male represented the sentence so we are said to be in Christ. That's Romans 518 first Corinthians 1522 and it says in Romans seven for those who have died are freed from the law.

That's Romans seven for in Romans 66.

We have died with Christ in Romans six, eight, we are crucified with Christ if we have died with Christ, then we are no longer under the law is Romans 74 says we died to the law.

The law has no jurisdiction over us. While when someone dies so the Old Testament covenant is that law and we are no longer under obligation to follow that Old Testament covenantal aspect of that law requirement. However, the 10 Commandments are interesting in that nine out of the 10 were reinstituted in the New Testament the one that was not reinstituted was the Sabbath. We are not to keep the Sabbath the way they were doing in the Old Testament because we died to the law and Jesus is our rest.

Matthew Gray eight so. Furthermore, the old covenant Latin is testament to him. Covenant testament old covenant Old Testament and New Testament. The old covenant system, so to speak was done away with or fulfilled or ended with the death of Christ. Romans eight vein of Hebrews 813 Hebrews 952 60. So with the institution of the new covenant, then we have the new rules and tithing is never said to be a law or an obligation in the New Testament so I like to state say to people we are free to tides were not obligated to, so we we try because I want to support God's ministry God's work, but is not a legalistic thing we have to do okay right well I tried because I go to the estate sales and garage what people left behind here on earth. And it's worth, and I want to pay my stuff over at Mark Beach and rest of the group so that way I feel about it. Thank you Matt. You can type you know. And pastors do need you no effect people.

Some people tides took harm because we have full-time people in different parts of the world and you were trying to further the kingdom of God. There's no way week I could work as a 4050 hour week job and do conflict do so. I support you and pray thank you. Your awesome Dave Britt appreciate that, but there you go. Okay, you think I got blessed right okay let's go today from solid city.

They welcome. Thank you think my thought sure you have out how you really think that gambling occasionally are not at all or is a tough one. Gambling is a form of seeking chance for benefit and that's un-biblical because God is sovereign King and with as he says that you cast a lot.

He's the one who caused it to go where he desires. So we have to big make sure that what were not doing is looking to any form of gambling for safety or for provision because that's a waste of the of the providence of little for provision to God's given us. But then again, what you do if you buy one lotto ticket a week or one lotto ticket a month. It solicits a one dollar is that gambling, yes it is but is it's a frivolous won't know it's not is out-of-control know it's not. And so I can't say, for example, the buying a lotto ticket is sinful. I can say it's not because the Bible doesn't really talk about things like that. In that way we don't want to use those kinds of things as the means by which were to be provided, forwarding to Truscott. Now I know a guy who in California and occasionally he'll take like say hundred dollars and because he tides he goes Christian goes to church. He helps people in every now and then he'll just take 100 bucks or something will drive over to call stateside and gamble at hundred dollars away and when he's done, he does what is looking those that sinful.

Well, I do. I can't say that it is because he's not hooked by it.

He doesn't go there all the time. It's a specific form of entertainment for him and he just does. That is what he likes. Okay like he's not not hooked by it. And he's not looking to it as a means of provision is instead of God. So this is not a real easy thing to say.

I know that a lot of Christians would say absolutely never gamble well gambling to take the covert shot. No answer.

To get gambling if under certain conditions. You will think you can work out.

What about the stock market can get the stock market again.

Yeah and I have crypto currency way goes up and down a couple thousand dollars a day or whatever this is that gambling well know it's not you know what's in there for an investment of time I'm there trying to help you make a little something to provide things like that. I look to God as it is the one who's providing through it and but it's not like I'm just take our money like you do in gambling. Sometimes you walk up to the lake and turn your back to like taking my toss in the back like go home for lotto gambling and so it's not that easy I don't like to say that it's it's automatically sinful, but I will say this if anybody's looking to get as the means of provision is that of God that sinful and if you lacking to it that we be careful okay I know people online like them. They know that yet they control your life.

You might think that at the like church bingo that would that be gambling and and what you doing so, the idea of gambling in the I think that is very definitely sinful is like I said, using it as a means of provision gamble. This hundred bucks and I hope I make all this money and that's what I'm in my my food my family with. That's a problem yet something right thank you okay Dave. Income accomplishment all right able to delver the next after lines 87707577077 back to the show that's good Alberto Gilbert welcome here or there about all I heard you all right we go but down. The question faster than any strike might be a you guy all the creatures out will give my baby a Roman noble Roman empire.

So born Alan Bethlehem or some little town. Maybe I live with born so what's your take on that.

I don't know what nationalities can be.

There's a strong handily born out of the rebuilt Roman Empire and of Europe lately there have been those who reason the argument I'm not yet to examine them, but that it might be a Muslim and that makes sense. I don't know if you know certain things that I just haven't done the research, but it was a Muslim leader that would make sense in that a lot of the Muslims would submit that where Christians would choose depending but reversing I would never happen solicits one another theory so I do not with damp and I nationality will be a shot that I care like I told you I was left left side of the paralyzed and they give false resurrection and also probably be homosexual. Also, I have an article on it on Carmen on the antichrist should check it out and all right. See also antichrist or critical get younger you never know God will these let's see, let's look okay to go see spirit of antichrist lawlessness poses and I have a whole article is you dictionary could have some information on but Christ, who is Chris Curcio be a woman completed now is give you guy. It'll be a boastful, back to Daniel that we weirded you think about what if it was a transsexual kind of thing that would be really interesting, boastful, combative, injured on the head and arms across 1117 Lord of the worthless shepherd leaves the flock of sword will be on his arm and his right. I his arm will be totally weathered and is right I will be blind again. 1137 you shall show no regard for the gods of his fathers or for the desire women, nor will he show regard for any other God, for he will magnify himself above.

Also, it might be in an atheist homosexual who does and the third of antichrist is alive and well, etc. and so who or what is the antichrist is the article on card check it out.

Article called the who or what is the antichrist. Okay what what okay all right thank you all right, all right.

Thank you, thank you. Okay buddy, but I think there okay thanks. Let's get to Blaine from Ohio a blame welcome you are on the air. I would like to place third chapter, 1/3 or second chapter I'm sorry, second chapter, Colossians 289 10 see to it that no one takes you captive through philosophy and empty deception.

The court of the tradition of men, according to elementary principles of the world, rather than according to Christ, for in him all the fullness of deity dwells in bodily form and in him you been made complete and he's ahead of all rule and authority.

All right, so is very good either aspect or question you have about this prick up you will be to look at well I am curious here Jesus is several things that no one takes you captive through philosophy and empty deception doesn't say philosophy is invalid.

The debate being worn, being taken captive through philosophy and human philosophy. And if you deception accorded to clarify the court of the tradition of men, according the elementary principles of the world rather than the Christ look to Christ. If we look at anything else and set for in him. Reason is because he's God in flesh handles all the fullness of the bodily form and in him you have been made complete head over all rule and authority may fall well all of the God bodily does that make notes wrong question. The person of the Godhead's non sequitur doesn't follow from what the Godhead is because the Godhead is by definition three persons who wouldn't say he's the person of the three persons, so the Godhead is a Trinity is a goddess resisting sample to a person how doing out awake when the hero is the Lord our God is one Lord, we don't look at one verse look at the entire revolution, Scripture, and do 96 for what you just quoted does not negate the doctrine of the Trinity word for he is one in Greek is a cod and I'm in Hebrew is a cod and it means a composite unit like a club.

One cluster of grapes with the Hebrew word you keyed means a single unit like one pencil.

And so it's the former, that's used in relationship to God and furthermore, God said, let us make man in our image lettuce without compounder language is plurality in the Old Testament, I give you versus Genesis 7181 exit 24 nine 211 just is not you understand sense of aspects that make up God idea that there's more than one person within the Godhead is totally like outer space that is oh so you can see outer space. I guess it doesn't exist.

No, I mean with your logic space that has never been explored. What I mean by now. I don't know I don't, actually. So I'm asking you because a doctor the trinities arrived at systematically, no single verse of the Bible can refute it, and if you are interested in learning how to arrived at learning what it is a great deal on the Trinity go to Carmen CAR room.org. You can read up and check on the dock of the Trinity and is one article I want to look at possible and by am taking her out of the Jewish setting, which we know they have no centuries since the church began and it possible that by taking the Scriptures out of the Jewish setting. We've also taken the Godhead out of the Jewish setting the car look up to see how the right okay that we all right they fellowship.

Lines 877207 why call 77077 with good on with Dave from Florida day. Welcome your on your body yes I can, Dave. You're on the question for you about all purity elevate the debate on that like they value the question in you know if you believe in the Lord Jesus cry on him alone in all that enough. I take it out if you believe that not a lot of people teach him greatly that now dominate each great and they were saying that, you believe Lord you look right and you believe that barren resurrection yet have acknowledged and then you know then you would be you could lose your eternal salvation. You be safe forever. I started out working at the office hadn't have knowledge that barren resurrection. What about that leak at the clock just cried out to Jesus. Now you know are what about the Scriptures that I'll call upon the Lord shall be. Thank you… Wondering because black people you get out you don't have the third knowledge of it. You know then you don't have eternal security.

If you can answer that question that okay first of all were justified before God by faith alone in Christ alone.

By the grace of God alone is nothing we do in order to achieve or maintain or regain salvation. We cannot lose it. Jesus is God in flesh to completely satisfy the requirements of the law. First Peter 222% and he is the one who bore sin in his body the cross. First, your 224 and he canceled the sin debt at the cross. Colossians 214 justified by faith. Romans 51 without the works of the law of Romans 328 and when he does not work but believes in him justifies an Gothic, his faith is credited as righteousness. Romans 45 were not justified by our knowledge, Lottie will make this mistake that he is called doctrinal regeneration. You know these things and appreciate these things believe these things and then you become saved less problematic because the unbeliever cannot receive the things got pretty foolish as to perspectives 214 is a slave of Central at 642 20.

He doesn't see forgot doesn't do anything good. Romans 310, 11, 12. Because of this he's not able to believe these things on his own has been granted that he comes to Christ.

John 665. Granted that he believed slippage 129 and granted repentance 2nd to 25. We do believe because God caused us to be born again. First Peter 13 were born again, not everyone will John 113 and so were make were born were changed to quit his 517 make new creatures born again. John 3325 so what happens here is that when God changes us and regenerates us. We believe we freely do believe but it's of the got grants to us as well.

So this is all the work of God is what Jesus said in John 620 29. They asked what must we do to work the works of God and Jesus is. This is the work of God, that you believe, on whom he is sent so we could do nothing to God. I believe I believe that good but there's some people who would… But it in your problem of evil. You know I'll read it. A guy I live in a Florida guy that killed walk you randomly kill the whole family.

People thought given the Canary all good guys.

You know you go to the jail and the whole family you know that mirthless with really bad in the new black go to jail and get no magic you like them, but you know we say Lord that okay you understand though is there one and you believe that work in another. Since our degrees or degrees of sin taking paperclip is not his work that is murdering a family. Jesus says that the one who delivers him over to the restaurant has the greater sin is greater since his greatest punishments as well so that is a great thing about the murder murder. You're saying that that and cannot be forgiven.

No incident is now 900 know you didn't ask that you said artists is under different worsening center yes, murder is forgivable. All sins are forgivable, except for blasphemy of the Holy Spirit which is saying that Jesus does miracles by the power of the other net all sins could be. I believe that they I know that you think I believe that one of the questions people talk about great great okay they may think that you know, I know you believe in the great nothing then you know that giving your life and know now that I know that old people who say that don't include in that very issue called regeneration. They don't seem to understand that Christ then lives in us. John 1423 were born from above. John 33 through eight, we are made new creatures sacred is 517 were not the same anymore.

It's not a license to sin.

People who raise that objection don't know what they're talking about. They don't include God's regenerative work in us. They say all your say what is a profession but you got live the evil you're still saying this at right it's never what we say it's never the position either God regenerates people.

He saves them and indwells them there's a change in them. So the critics were there more that fact, that right there should be a change in amount they like it is not a change in my behaviors.

They're saying basically you know behavior elevation to the gym. They were never saved for a franchise who for one who says he knows him but does not keep his commandments.

The truth is not enemies a liar. If you say you know God here gives live in the same as an unbeliever, as the hypocrites and you're not saved, well, well, I think they've been allowed to get a chance to take while the chain thought it not bathe in the late behavior know no holiday people are change right away when you really changed things happen in any change in change very quickly. It's not like you and three seconds is not within three years is just that people change, they sometimes have some bad habits that take years to get rid of, but there's an immediate change in them. That's how it works. Otherwise, not born again okay yeah I agree with a lot of people just try to catch catch you in then because they think they will then know then out and out even if it got that box if I caused you know that would hold on, but I got… Making the correct update.

What a disciple issue sins. What the Christian God thing is not a salvationist you anything and if I can ship your weight lately and I think might you do is you tackle a lot of stuff. I'm really fast. I don't work the way I got you one thing at a time so he said if someone sins what's in what kind of sin for Christian what you mean, what kind of sin.

Is it okay all big dog. Although I don't like what you wouldn't do cloaking drinking when I'm slow down slowdown slip who said us a Christian can't smoke who showed Christian can't drink.

I would like that okay out with a feeling that nothing better than writing there you go to send for sure you is not saved notice of me to not save the Holy Spirit will convict them of their sin. It's a really saved by sentence towards that conviction of God be upon them because that's what happens if there is no conviction is no change of heart. Then they're not really born again because the Holy Spirit convicts the world of sin. John 16 talks okay okay that I find my care that the how you would know responded that I knew a little bit about it but on the problem or question out… The problem evil in the world that why what you know what people they live there evil and they don't believe in God or a get well why did God come down enough of the starting baby what you say about the problem evil in the equation of what Hennessey it depends on who you're talking to. If it's an atheist. I say let you okay Nate. This essay will define what evilness and how did understand of evil is correct and how do you have evil and an atheistic worldview you got answered his questions before leaving tackle original question you got. Why would God allow it.

You don't even know the Christian God and if he how would you know what you are what you evil and have a good purpose to it then because God is unbuckled and hold on. You always have to tackle the foundation of the critic okay always do that first in line with the can know what is good or bad if I know the character of God atheist has no universal standard to which they could say anything is good or bad. That's it. And so didn't have a leg to stand on. So by asking the questions are actually supporting the Christian worldview is only Christianity can we explain what evil is. If you want talk about suffering that the we got a call or sermon. It's all give you this though, something I'll say that yeah I like I yeah I got right to the baggage of an image of it in a wall. I would not allow it to break so there you go already voted to lines 877207 mass like why call 77077 I'm doing fine in the Bible. I will call in the Bible that Betty and Malaga. God doesn't want to make a profit off of somebody you know, the fact that Wall Street stop by. Although no one have to loan money that I pay about 100 will go to the right of thought that we can about a label.

People like to show that benefits you have to look at it all… So that both of their labor.

One will fail but don't like the law tell you you should not do it and you shouldn't do it.

I would agree with you, and as I was trying to say earlier's trying to give a principal for people that they don't want to use that as a means of gain for the purpose of gain. Instead of trusting God that is definitely sinful and then there's the grace of issues, so it's not an easy black-and-white issue to answer what all you like, you know that all the criminal gray areas in the Bible yes always listen to God.

That's right, that's right. And the Bible says always search the Scriptures that is correct right okay okay okay goblins okay thanks all right, let's get on the phone with James from Ohio hey James, welcome you here. Oh, Matt, yes I can.

So we got off yeah I question over and wrote Revelation 14. My question was about what you thought the everlasting gospel. What that danger was preaching was a good question. I would say that it is the gospel message of what Christ is done live on the earth donating. You might think (good, I say that is the same as the gospel that we have now. You might onion great, yet very similar there and diverted, and after guided it little more description to it, but you have time for another question. Sure that's going to 70. The mystery of iniquity that even now, let it be that it means one who restrains yeah some sites the Holy Spirit and one of the ideas are is that when the when the rapture occurs pretrip rapturous with one view says the Holy Spirit is removed and then the antichrist can commit to its now with the Texas thing actually but you know it's one of the views so we don't know for sure that I would take know he might be God. But in in the NASB that he is not capitalized. So the intention here, then so from their understanding. It might not be God and he says you know what restrains him now, so that is in this time he will be revealed for the Mr. laws is already at work. Only he who now restrains will do so until he is taken out of the way so I don't that he is there. I honestly don't like it is good to conjecture, gray. That's it. So I'm like that identifying feature or the event that take place that would signify the level I would say that the start of this relation is not the pretrip rapturous from it all. I would say that it's the arriving antichrist, where he very least, is the requirement of buying and selling under universal mark for Europe, probably much of Africa.

Much of Asia, probably the Americas. I would say that that's probably what happened that would be the signification of midpoint would be interested.

Rebuilt Temple of Jerusalem declares himself to be God and of course having the translation in the great tribulation part starts.

Some people think will get ruptured out there. At that point and I hold to the idea of getting rapture mythical through it all. That's just my view rate all the way to the rapture that spoken of in Revelation like the will low you see the Bible says only one return of Christ.

This one they come. Great price and is at the end of the age and at the end of the ages, when the harvest occurs in Matthew 13 for that and the harvesters are angels and the knots when the wheat taken, but the ones are taken before the week or the wicked is Matthew 1330 gray go together.

And so I don't see how pretrip elation raptures is possible if what Jesus is saying level to go to get to the end of the age of say the reverse. First, gather the tears and got of the weaving of the barn and interprets that him and 40 1340. To say that it's the end of the age of this that is reapers are the Angels. If that taking of the good is the rapture then saying there is the wicked had to be taken away first, and that's what it would say so look pretty pretrip regret to say that the rapture can't can't be the reference to something else to say something like it was the end of August 2 rapture pretrip elation) to go to seven years of time and then there's a second rapture that doesn't there's nothing like it in Scripture. Plus, if it's elation thing right. It just doesn't work and plus it will be seven years of the day that Jesus would return. If the rapture occurs at pretrip I would know that the day rate and so that's a problem to there's lots of problem pretrip rapture. Yeah, I agree.

I pride probably more heavily toward pretrip rapture, but I get to get little. It gets difficult to substantiate it. Whenever they whenever pre-tribulation rapture. The addition bait that the two off each other. In other words, that by asking the event that would signify the started tribulation pre-tribulation rapture. They started tribulation is that the rapture and then if you asked then went in the rapture. They with just a bit like an arrow down much. You guys are. I used to be pretrip rapture to start studying some stuff and then change my view of never looked back. I hope I'm wrong and you know if people don't believe that if I do. Okay, that's fine. I hope the rights and is not a condescending. I hope your writing on my I'm laughing. No, you know I don't have all the answers.

I certainly hope that I'm wrong. I really sincerely through it. But you know it's I just don't understand.

Convinced that we can bereft out and plus the other temples can be rebuilt to and this not happening yet, so there's still something I go through would with the Temple rebuilding a good day could even be a temporary or does it have to be one that is no great mechanic could Temple be considered a tent as well is probably good to be on the temple sites looks like the dome of the rock is in the court of the Gentiles archaeologically and so they look like. It can be built and the Gentiles will be the place of the Muslims on the temple and their trait they are training of priests, and I have the ashes of the red heifer it's motor so that they need so is just a matter of getting it built and if they started building the tabernacle when that news starts hidden. That's when you want to go on via a nuclear bomb shelter bunker you know and stuff because you know your stuff will get it build something like the Nautilus and hide the bottom of the trench someplace today as I get out of the threat or moved to Idaho Idaho so I shouldn't say that when a man appear every come in here everything on what I appreciated. I think you ever taken the talking to Orthodox and I really appreciate you going back to Scripture really do think that a deal, but you don't brainstorm his zeal without knowledge of the city without Christ yet to signal that a shortish phenolic that's right that's right yet the bomber okay save it, or a buddy. God bless man okay hope you're right right okay all right it's good to Mark from Florida Mark welcome you here. I have a quick question.

The subjects on the doctrine of the Trinity. Sure, the path I've asked other Christians about this and I've gotten a hell of a week. I've asked them, can you give me analogy I can understand a simple analogy and strength to keep me analogy where they set on what we were created in the image of God and they went in and said what you have a body soul and spirit, rights they were in and related those three things to the Trinity is that valid or that should I stay away from something I don't think it's as valid as they intended to be, I think is better analogies but all analogies break down the one I like to go to his time. Time is past present future in physics, they say, past present future all exist the same time. We went past this one segment I don't get all that but whatever the past is time to present his time. The future is time is not three separate times there's one thing called time and we see it as three and so God is one thing, God see him as three persons.

That's the best kind of analogy Stalinist got problems whatever analogy does have a quick question about that. Can a person be saved and not fully understand the Trinity excess leave it because it's in Scripture, but not fully.

I cannot fall in that category.

I prove it because it's written but not because I fully understand it. I don't fully understand. I've been studying defending it for over 40 years. I don't know how God can exist is one God, one being in three simultaneous distinct person is by faith that I distrust of the Scriptures reveal and move forward. So you know what he's God I'm not he gets it. I don't that's okay forward. I get it have to be God, to understand that and I were not God so right thank you very much. Sure, no problem at all blessed. All right, now clear that at a time that Pearl from Rockville. We will build get you call back tomorrow with the meaning of man and God's image. That's a good question.

I have a good answer for you if you want to call the Lord bless you all and why is tomorrow so what powered by the Truth Network
