Matt Slick Live

The following program is recorded content created by the Truth Network Matt slick.

Why is the founder and president of the listed apologetics research ministry found online at time born you have questions of our Bible doctrine serves a max Y rises Matt slick once you do recall we helpful 87720722761 to hear from you. Give me a call. Today's date for the park characters is October 1, 2021.

So what you recall folks wouldn't talk about con stuff and don't open a little bit of a check problem today with phones so we don't know how exactly everything is working but it should be okay so just go let you know about that cubicle that we have four people: right now that's good. So tonight I have debates with a Unitarian and he apparently not only denies the Trinity, but also denies the deity of Christ, the sky is twice the heretic and will be debating him at 8 PM Eastern time and if you want the information. Just go to Karma.org/calendar to see the link that's for today's dates and check it out if you want, and hopefully will go well. I was listening to a little bit of stuff that he was sanded and to do the research on and you know when people will deny the truth they really become irrational and a lot of times you don't realize how irrational they are when they deny truth cognitive dissonance and will be in strong play tonight on his parts because the guy that's most often just – so anyway that will be going on. The public will link up on Facebook and things like that as well there you go through open lines going to give me a call 877-207-2276 right when we discover the phones are with Dave from Kansas City.

Dave welcome you earlier. I met a limited government website that was on hold at one of our most famous pastors and it said that he teaches Lordship salvation and it's similar to the Roman Catholic theology and the bendable heresy I just want to know your position on some of the more extreme Lordship salvation teachers. Yeah, there are there different views was in March of salvation, it's whatever you go to any particular teacher you have to ask I think her advocating it yet to ask what do they mean by it and that's the critical issue.

So some people say Lordship salvation just means that when Jesus is the Savior in your life is manifested as such is automatically the Lord of your life in all areas Lordship said now but some say this is where it gets bad. Lordship salvation means that he must be in you need to make them and submit to his Lordship in every area of your life and if you don't, you're not saved, and sold the last part there. That latter part is with a dangerous because it implies that you have to do something to maintain or achieve salvation, namely you to make sure that Jesus is Lord in your life, and this is legalist and so anyone who would hold that has some serious problems and who they are. That's a problem, but were not saying that Jesus is not Lord of all of our lives were not on the survey not saying that it's okay to sin and we don't have to submit to Christ in all areas. Of course we do when they start saying in order to be saved. You must do these things and that's a problem okay yeah I thought it was very similar to the room and similar folders and teaches is similar but they add a whole new level of heresy because in Catholicism, salvation is a long process that's guided by the Roman Catholic Church and so instead of justification by faith.

It's a method of having grace infused into your soul through the sacraments, and as long as the grace level like a gas tank is full. Your good. But if it goes down to empty your you're in trouble and so you have to retain that so that grace level through participation in the sacraments and that's where it goes. Method damnable heresy just it that's official in Catholic theology to and it's it's just antichrist. It's bad thinking about it think it all right, all right, let's get to Jamaal from North Carolina. Jamaal welcome you on here so we got both of you. Thanks, Bob now always going to do about to convert the like-minded people in the ad questions never go back and forth and I wanted to invite people along the counterintuitive little small problem of between Bible study didn't want to similar but there are differences.

Apologetics is spoken of in first Peter 315 is that the defense of the faith Bible study doesn't necessarily entail a defense of the faith select tonight I will be little Bible study. I will be doing apologetics with this heretic false to true denies the Trinity the deity of Christ, and so if I will look at last I thought a Bible study in a tunnel on the promote Galatians 416 to the end of the chapter insulated with I went through and explain what Paul was teaching and why was relation is really, usually allegories in oath of spiritual Jerusalem physical Jerusalem and things like that and that's just a Bible study.

What is it actually saying apologetics deals with the defense and establishment of the Christian faith, and that can mean inside the church, as well as outside the church.

Okay, so in that lot of good information data to how I completed the word that both good invite combating you.

Bob study looking at the project required are probably applicable kind of weird put it into my own words, like no current break down like a we have Bible study last week. Apologetics this week we're going to do it right so Bible study would just be going first by verse and executing in it.

Apologetics is defending something and establishing the truth of something in a and a means of trying to further the gospel to unbelievers and things like that. So for example, Mormons really teach that God came from the world that he used to be a God or you see a man in the world and it became a God well okay so an apologetic approach would be to refute that from Scripture and show where the Bible says that God's always been God is never a man.

You know, Psalm 90, verse two, and so stuff like that in a tort in a more general thing is what is salvation.

It's the it's God saving us from his righteous judgment. Justification is a legal declaration of righteousness so you could then work that again the truth and expose the errors of Mormonism, Jehovah's Witnesses, Roman Catholicism, Eastern Orthodox Islam and you defending the Christian faith in the truth of it is establishing different apologetic methodology that was happening that we do the connecting good and will prevent the three first Peter 315 always be ready to make a defense like a deposit and you get with generals and reference the first head start.

Healthcare is first Peter first Peter 315 is the standard go to verse about apologetics.

The word defense there.

It's the verse says of the first think if I Christ as Lord in your heart always be my to make a defense for the reason the hope the faith applies within you. It will get with generals and reverence for defense of the Greek or the public via public, via which we get apologetics the defense of the faith will all "less human, lusty right folks realize what give me a call 877-207-2276 Park verb or Herb procure your layouts. I appreciate your ministry that I have not got your question on the labor labor 1956, walking with the Lord every day in the eye. Question and you don't know what answer that's fine. If you have an answer that will be good but in Genesis chapter 2 and chapter 3 chapter 2 Adam knew that been told by God not to eat the fruit of the tree in the middle of a dark and Edit their work. He was not there. Then in chapter 3, Eve had been assembled from spare part and she also then new that the she should not eat of the fruit of freedom got the better of the guard. How much time was that from the time she knew that what your course. Adam also knew previously before she was assembled, how much time do you think was between that those two things end up like an hour what is your second question doesn't tell us this is that thinking about it that in all my Bible study, read the Bible through a number of times started and my 89 years but I have never seen anything alluded to that that it was a month or it was a year or doesn't tell us where go to bed and instantly, not incidentally, is logically not possible no eyesight ends will instantly know that would that wouldn't be logically possible, either instantly from the when they were just critics of fall because a conversation and as it is recorded, so it took some time but was what probably happened is Adam informed Eve about the commands of God. That's biblical because he's the spiritual head that's supposed to be and that's how God is revealed, Satan went to Eve and usurped the position of authority that was Adams and went to her she should have gone to Adam and that's the proper method, but any rate, Satan use the woman and then deceived her in verse six of Genesis 3, she ate and we don't know what the time duration is between not and he just doesn't tell us so we can say I saw second monsters.

We don't get better for withdrawal that is the policy of mine. I appreciate your picture ministry of the Lord will bless you and your debate will thank you so you get some debate set up in three more next few weeks or something like that but you so will see things very very much a folks, we have three of the lines and call 877-0776 will be right back after mass Y call 77077 let's leave it to open lines 877-207-2276 people in the chat room are are talking about stuff. So how far for me was at home for me for the time you and Helen said he was distracted by the sandwiches and TV remote conflict was right there.

All right, let's get to Ethan from Philadelphia. Ethan welcome you are on the hello hello I'm glad to be here.

I do, do I do have to question your kind of relation to other okay I am not trying to fight or go caller said I'm not trying to like you haven't got your question, but I and I do have a question about John MacArthur and I called but him last time because I'm really trying to reconcile learn that I don't going to do, but some of his teaching them. Kind of like five because I remember he said something about you can take them what he said.

He said you can take the market would be an whenever I read the bite whenever I read Revelation, I'm like okay well I like to follow you there. You know like them, but the but the Bible seems to me at least to be very clear about what my it says every kind of weight every way possible. Those who think the market would be if you don't take it, you can begin a but if you take it you're going to do it.

I mean, so I just need to know I need to see another witness of Christ and that you your opinion of like what leg like Hattaway take this and I'm genuinely not trying to attack John MacArthur. I'm just I'm just trying to figure out from another believer will like what to think about that, stuff well.

Content is always everything defending him, having not heard that. I don't know, but this with the Bible says Revelation 14, nine and 10.

Another range will certainly follow them, saying with a loud voice of anyone worships the beast and his image, and receives a marketers for head or his hand.

He will also drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is next full strength, etc. tormented with fire and brimstone, so, so you I don't know but it says here if anyone worships the beast and his image, and receives the question then becomes our all three necessary in order to be damned, saying, you know the just one will do for one vulture to the three initial cake not saying that but these are the kind committed to kind of questions you have to ask the text. I don't know what he said a lot of know that because if he did say just pay you can take the market still be saved and then your next that would not be true.

The Bible speaks of the contract, but I could like to know what the context was.

Now I will save it. Okay you know I thought you said at one time in 10 years before 30 years before any said it a second time with them. I brought up the QA and is great church make he said get that absolutely you can take the market would be that I really encourage you to look it up and I like his answer. He whenever John MacArthur that's about it for second time. He said you can take the mark of the beast and the date and that's why I'm just I'm wrestling with that in that kind of lead me to my message.

My second question, and again I'm I'm for all the listeners out there. I didn't want to make up fondly clear I am not attacking John MacArthur. I am simply just trying to truth seeking and that perhaps I will Yet I could be completely taking his words out of context and I hope that I am but it's just something that I'm just right. I wrestle with because I I do my best to sit there in the Lord and I am been a be the first one to admit I am if it's okay I don't get things right all the time and I might be mishearing thing, but I do know if you do your own research and you look into John MacArthur. This is not us trying to encourage fighting within the body of Christ that were supposed to do, but I just wanted I just time to start to think that's all I like that I get concerned, you know you should be concerned that concerns me to send the link or find a video word send email to input Condron since where it is three minutes and whatever is like I can check out I was in you, multiple links okay and ended video will have your email clubs rewatch I'm actually driving answering a man not driving illegally and with my but my second question Maggie and Meka parked right out.

My second question to you if you don't mind, I'm sorry listeners of that promise will be my last one now.

The last time I called. Another key thing that I'm I'm really trying to get behind you know and and and again I have to deposit with.

I am a sinner and I don't know everything. I'm genuinely doing the best sign God's work. That's all I want to do so II remember last time I spoke with you. I I asked you about, you know that the hip the book that John MacArthur wrote.

It's called slave and you your response to me was okay well you know the Bible does qualify place and I like okay, that makes perfect because you know like that. But then again Jesus also said I therefore no longer call you sideways for slave no doubt that with the father does, how you believe you a friend yet and so now I bring that back. My point back to how John MacArthur in his book. And again, I'm not attacking him just questioning in his book he says that he emphasizes no no not bondservant you are in fact a slave and that salvation is akin to enslavement internally and Col. enslavement it all. As I climbed it all. That's what is meant and how it is meant right okay and that's the thing. Okay, so there are in the is this what is on just try to be fair, even if it was Mormon teaching something.

It's a will what's the context what's he saying and always have to go in and say that because in one sense were slaves in another sense were not not slaves to the law, not slaves to one another, but we are slaves to Christ, in the sense that we are supposed to serve him this one sent and we are also his friends in that were not slaves in that we have no rights as I was teaching last night on the Galatians chapter 4 and talks about Ishmael and Hagar and Sarah and Isaac, and that one represents bondage and the law and the wondrous group represents faith and freedom. And so will one is a slave wealth in that sense, the slave, one who is a slave is not free and someone who was a child or an error is free from having to certain requirements. So Paul uses that analogy of of the Jews and the Christians in Galatia and stuff like that so there's a sense in which this is true, and so we don't and not for spending 723 do not become slaves of men would have to do that and there are slaves and free people, but we are slaves to Christ in that's loose sense that we do his will, not our own. That's the idea what's he saying which context I yeah I get.

I suppose I did, I did. I figured, you know, I always thought that no one did that bondservant you slave I thought I understood play based off of how you described it, but I guess I just don't get it.

I just don't really understand first onlookers in the reference of slave folks we write back after these messages, please stick to mass Y. Call 770727 charismatic slave wife found a couple of verses worth reading here. They both use the same Greek word to Lori do loss slave fusion 66 not by way of eye service or as meant pleasers, but as slaves of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart and of first Peter 216 act is free minute. Do not use your freedom as a covering for evil, but use it as bond slaves of God.

So there's that sense in which we we are that okay okay okay I get I understand, but this will be my final I got my my only clarification I just I like to see what you're saying is that I totally on board with what you're saying. I get like, but I just didn't have I got.

That's why when I eventually write a letter to John MacArthur is asking himself the did clarify because I mean, why, why fight over bondservant or slave because his is that the whole crux of his book is due. Love doesn't mean bondservant me play and I'm like okay I get it, but like why are we fighting because like, what, why, why do we have the controversy, the be the essence of his book is that there's been 100 years cover-up of the true meaning of pillows that you mentioned. And I'm thinking to myself okay will do well or not bondservant or slave. It doesn't matter were still in it. Just I just don't understand what to do operatively with choosing play versus bomb plate you the differences slave is versus bonsai no I don't slave was someone who was in the Masters home and they were beaten. That's not how it worked.

Back then it wasn't honestly look at what your American 1800 but they were often a trust with her children.

They had to have days off. They had to have certain rights in indirect so there was a time usually when they could be set free. Maybe the entered slavery voluntarily or to pay a bill or they were born into its negative under freedom in the Roman culture and this all the way around the Mediterranean area at the time of Christ. Okay so when a slave was freed but he wanted to stay with his master.

He loved the people loved his family love them would state that he would become a bondslave and what he would do is was a ceremony he would take his I think was right earlobe and take it to a doorpost wooden door post a punch a hole in the earlobe and it meant that he had chosen to be bonded. Slave is bonding, finding himself on purpose to stay with that family.

That's a bondslave different is just a regular slave.

So the NASB uses in first Peter 216 uses as bondslave.

I thank you so much. I will not take any further at that time, always, always a pleasure speaking with you man that said all the time when I call you.

You have your website. It it it helped me through years of you know my walk with the ink you so much so much. I was gone. Have a blessed day okay to alright so you know what guys will say that I did a search for bondslave and found Colossians 412 for us, who is one of your number. A bondslave of Jesus Christ send you his greetings. That's interesting and do their little searcher bondslave and I just see what else might come up because it's listed and let's see. So ask my bondslave.

Both men and women are poor. Even my bond slaves, both men and women are poor. In those days of my Spirit and they shall prophesy pleasure on the believers and the is asked to 18 interesting okay anyway so it was studies like a visually interesting, alright, let's get to see the swing person is Carl from Orlando Florida. Carl welcoming on the same artwork on our way doing radio ready. What's up my coworker and Bible remarried about the quote I like them my majority of my coworker Molly, a black man and a number that all that) five but I believe that God can't have when it had a word doc all work black floor and just as works as you heard in the radio. I know I disparage the idea the blonde haired blue-eyed Caucasian surfer Jesus dressing rooms like and but really what was Jesus. What was he was enough as we talk about skin color. There are three main races that are said to be races caucus avoid the droid and mongoloid so locations Negros as a say in that sense and Asians. The Oriental youth agent with little to Kolkata so that in the Bible where it knows or just digitize classifications that people have today in the Bible is only one race is the human race.

And that's how it was. We should look at it. I don't look at that black people is black of black race relations and Asian race. Whatever I don't I don't belong on the just people. Mark Mark Mark them was on why all guard on know what you are well on you yet.

He's Jewish and private. He probably was either whitish skinned or looks Arabic – that's what would be) you live in the middle hello date for that minute you do term but can't become a map admitted on Africa, you will understand though that's Abraham was called out to the Chaldees, not Africa, and he moved with his people, his family went eventually to Egypt and in Egypt they grew but they weren't Egyptians. They were descendents of the people of Abraham, and they went back to the land of Canaan or Israel. And so they were enslaved there and they went back and the Jews today. A lot of them know their genealogy another history and their lineage and there to be black Jews. There can be quite juicy that's in a strict sense like that. But that's it. The Jews today in Israel.

That's what they look like they were back then and now and I really probably Jesus black ration.

I don't care I just care what you guys across the historically accurate it is. The evidence is not supported. I do that he was black and part black, white America are European make him look like a white man wanted you write the blind blue-eyed Caucasian surfer Jesus a call you my wonderful thing about it. He read the Bible and we are like, you can have like to admit that what we think looks like what you know it back, but if they thought they liked it so I started out with a black man in the Bible guy you the word God black show shows versus take a look at him. He says that he is having an image of Christ in your mind. I don't have one. I do not have one. I don't go with the Caucasian, one Asian, one black, one don't go with anything.

I just talked to my Lord is no image in Emmett because I don't know what you know that so so so passionate you was a black man on the life I think of that because I think I think I don't know why do the Scriptures would take a look on the sacred versus the usual take a look okay at night are not to knock or use another time I was sounds good. I my body. Okay S alright, it's good to see Cheryl from Greensboro North Carolina sure looking on the air high Cheri okay there's a diet okay got it right now and follow the Lord broke 50 and made the comment about Adam and E was he saying or breaks a hold on the questionnaire will be right back folks have these messages. Please stay tuned mass like why call 770776 charismatic slave back to the last segment was good to you still there. Alright, so what was your question.

Well he was that the Bible says he is with her.

We don't know somebody you gave yesterday. She did the fruit to Adam, who was with her will visit wishy 2 feet away the whole time while the snake is talking to work or was he 10 feet away or another part of the garden behind you.

Who knows, and the Bible doesn't say about work. Now I supposed to. Why did the well because you don't like right now my wife is is in the house here so I'm with my wife but she's a different room accuracy.

I'm with her so-called emergent like share with so that's it just wasn't Meenan and we have asked that question, and we I don't know exactly something women have heard will safe it was Adam's fault. He was right there and he let it happen. It doesn't say that the say he was right there next to her was watching and let it happen and still doesn't say that what he was with her now okay but what exactly agree with Eric that in but does so and so my wife is with me now in the house in a different part of the house and I could even yell to the house. The door she maybe might build here.

So I asked that's the question we have to ask and we don't have the correct answer so we can draw too many conclusions of excellence. I okay thank you all right, Sherry, God bless. All right, let's get to Chile from North Carolina hey what's up Chuck run here. Charlie hello hello hello hello sorry I Bible to church and appreciate your ministry.

I got a daughter who all live and all were not really involved or growing up in our 30s attended Pentecostal and then as to a church and I just made a question during the week we talked about being a believer in Christ and accepting him in an all involved with being a Christian and she is the right word, but I did. I just don't have a comfortable feeling about work you that you do is ask very specific questions to ask what is justification that asked that and it is the legal declaration of righteousness. And that's only justified by faith alone in Christ alone. That's the critical issue, or were saved from our sins by our faith in Christ alone, without any works. Contributing to that. That's good. Asked her if she says will you have to keep this yet do this door to be saved. The cult I will follow all of the Judaic laws are all of the holy. I work two weeks ago and back to the point where she won't let her children do anything on Saturday she marries RJ. She followed no should not.

You could have her call the show we could talk. If you send me information I can check out this website to check them out. The super legit with a good if using Pentecostal church which is often emotionally manipulative people like to submit themselves to authority love them.

Maybe she do the same thing with the Torah church and that she wants in authority over them. But the Old Testament covenant was abrogated at the death of Christ. Hebrews 813, he was 952 16 so we are not obligated to follow the Old Testament law were free to follow certain aspects, but if she's following it in order to keep yourself right with God, then that's that's a false teaching. Okay I got that Christ came and justified the law in the Bible pretty much got got all kinds of biblical references that I get back from her book ever pollution: I did okay I appreciate that I will. That's a good question.

I will after sounds good. Okay you two God bless you for the lines going to be call eight 772-072-2760 McCauley Cutlass get to. I guess that Suki from Utah okay hello I question about doing great or child molesters him in repentance go to heaven. Yes. All right, but my buddy asked me questions like I wrote about a guy like that Bundy and Ali goes around the velvet. The left many will know people often misrepresents what salvation is and is it possible that someone can repent.

On her deathbed and become Christians.

Absolutely.

And then go to heaven. Yes it's possible to have false conversions. At times like that will yes we can't say that one instance represents all instances we have to look at each person situation individually and make judgments if we could in that situation so someone like Ted Bundy was an evil man, and he just mouth these words at the end before he dies.

You know, okay, whatever. Now Jeffrey Dahmer. You know he ate people is a serial killer eight people and what I'd heard from more than one place, was that he actually repented of it and actually did trust in Christ. Now I don't know if he did or did not for real and that their ridiculous say. But I'd heard that were some pastors who had gotten hold of him and were taught and they said yeah he used repented.

He's confessing Christ. He was end up murdered in jail. I believe it was illegal to heaven yet. If you truly repented and truly believe in Christ. That's it. So David was a blitzing adulterer and a murderer, and he's in heaven and Bible and Paul the apostle was a murderer killed the people of God and he's in heaven so it's not that God says he just turned a blind eye to our great sin is just that the blood of God in Christ is greater than all of our sin and can be cleansed, but it must mean trust and faith in Christ turning to him confessing our sins because no matter what we've done, we can do that people listen to this and how bad of a sinner you think you are. If you think that you can trust in Christ or that he won't forgive you when you don't know the Christ of Scripture because the Christ of Scripture is God in flesh, the creator of the universe and he will forgive all who come to him and trust in that infinitely valuable sacrifice of his shed blood on the cross and care what you've done in your some things I've done folks like will never say with the radio but I'm glad that God's forgiveness is there and I trust in him and so anybody that everybody can be saved in the Sikorsky glass with the Holy Spirit, but to some curly could find salvation in Jesus Christ, rightly doing okay Suki is there going to lose him. We lost him.

Let's see may be will to go ahead and go on. All right, let's get to Gabriel from the morning I will give you welcome you here though we have a phone problem again.

Let's see something we had some problems today, system problems, I don't know think they can hear me or not see anything that yeah it looks like it on because you hear me I can't receive no let's see yes you hear me over the air. I don't know but I know you can hear me and you to the stuff like that. You have a few minutes left on the things I could do was reboot my conference with that would mean would be off the air for a minutes and were almost out of time anyway so very close so people do significantly, but I can't hear them. So while Gabriel warned about the spiritual gifts.

I don't know what he wanted to ask for McDougal to talk about it until the shelf and see if we lost him, assuming anybody else hello are you there don't have the information we lost you have a we had phone problems today so everyone okay There Okay so Anyway I Spiritual Gifts. There Are Two Categories of Spiritual Gifts.

There's the Charismatic Gifts and There Are None Charismatic Gifts That Are Listed in Romans 12 Romans First 2012, and 14 in the Non-Charismatic Gifts Are Things like Administrations and Help Things like That and the Charismatic Gifts Are Things like Speaking in Tongues and Prophecy, and Interpretation of Tongues and Things like That and Those of the Charismatic Because They Are Operated by the Power of the Holy Spirit within Us, so They Are by His Power, but Administrations and Helps Our by Our Own Power. God Can Give the Staff Certain Things and Then We Can Do These Things, like Charlie's, a Friend of Mine. He Is a Good Gift of of Phone of Help and Not a Friend Named Dave.

He Is a Good Gift of Administration and of Course My Wife Is Either Good Gift of Being Noxious so I Get to the Book of Fun Second Chronicles so Well That That's That and Also My People Don't Know This but It Says the Free Gift of Romans 623.

The Wages of Sin Is Death, but the Free Gift of God Is Eternal Life in Christ Jesus. The Word Gift Their Greek Is Charisma Respect Which We Can Charismatic Thing That Makes Perfect Sense, Because the Gift of Salvation Is Something That Is Worked by That Power the Holy Spirit in Us to Regenerate Us to Bring Us Back to Where We Need to Be to Bring Us to Him, and with the Charismatic Thing and so We We Do Have an Inverse Contents. 14.

I Recommend People Read That Says to Pursue on Newmont Costs Which Is Spirituals Spiritual Gift Things Not Charisma Cost Charismatic Gifts, but the Spirituals and Then It Talks about the Charismatic Gifts in First Corinthians 14 and Thereafter Listed There and Personally I Believe All the Charismatic Gifts Are Still for Today. I Do Believe All of Them Because of Perspective. 17 Marches of the Church, Not Lack Any Charisma Little Waiting for the Return of Christ, so That's My Opinion and Know the Charismatic Gifts Don't Threaten the Canon Is Another Issue That Brought up We First of His 14 and Find That out There.

They Were Out Of Time and I Got a Debate Tonight and Let's See Our Two Hours and Just Go to Carn.org/Calendar See You All Right, Have a Great Weekend Everybody. The Lord Bless You and by His Grace Will Talk to You on Powered by the Truth Network
