The following program is recorded content created by the Truth Network. Why is log on more why I've applied both to do with garlic 772072276 now something to talk about of the second break will talk about the break I will talk about car business and stuff like that but I want open up with the issue of what happened in the Texas today. Love you may or may not know there was a shooting elementary school police were chasing somebody and 18-year-old who went into a elementary school and shot and killed 14 students and one teacher and that he was an 18-year-old.

And now he's gone and so you don't want to be careful about this because why do things like this happen. Why does God look he allows them to happen for many reasons, but one is because we have been given our sovereignty, not sovereignty from God, but a rain in this world we are allowed to do as we desire the consequences of that sin resulted things like this so we are mass shootings in the 40s and 50s in schools and in malls and things like that shopping areas not at work, but the left has taken God out of our lives out of our schools of society, movies, the left is left vacant area in our society and filled it with moral relativism and the approval of violence in movies and BLM riots were people loot and pillage punished and so the pervasive feeling, so to speak. That is kind of out there is is so you get away with stuff and was going to happen. We know is that the left is going to use this to punish the law-abiding. One of take away the gun rights of the law-abiding because someone who was crazy did something and it was tragic and so this is something to be aware of their prey. We prayed three of us Lauren, Charlie and I have before the show. Pray for the people there the situation and it is truly sad thing is, the sad thing and will get more details as time goes on, but you mark my words, the left is going use it to confiscate our weapons to try to confiscate more restrictions on the good people and the can't see that the solution is not, by tying the hands is by changing the heart, but their hearts are wicked little understand that when the Lord is in you that the goodness within your heart, the Lord Jesus stops your hand. See, we need to return to the things of God but the left doesn't want it. The left wanted fornication senates or not graffiti its violence and hypocrisy and it socialism and communism, oppression, and power. And when things go wrong it will use a situation to gain more power to enslave more people and restrict their freedom, all while saying that they are the ones with the moral ones doing what's right and they can't see the can't see that there denial of the true living God. There exercising him of society and culture, politics, schools, entertainment, getting rid of him and his foundational truths of loving God and loving your neighbor and being accountable to these things are no longer in place in our society, and so the void is filled with the tragedies of our own hearts filled with varying forms of evil that are Lotta good people out there but when the week. The crazy when the insane there. I say demonically oppressed act, then those who have contributed to the with her policies and the negation of the truth of who God is, in his goodness.

Why we need him in society. Those who have helped build that vacuum, then punish inadvertently or on purpose. Those who are guiltless in this.

They want control and ultimately yet understand something very important here. Go to Ephesians chapter 6 and remind us all of what the Scriptures teach us verse 12 for our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against rulers, against the powers, against the world forces of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of weakness in the heavenly places, and coincidently it's interesting that were talking about this is a tragedy, but I'm rewriting my novel of the influence to rerelease it and I just went through the section where the character will each is possessed and the thoughts of the demonic force in my fictional novel the thoughts of this demonic force speak into the mind of this is so this poor man and it thinks it's doing good when it's doing evil.

He thinks he's doing right and so pain and suffering are the result. It is kind of interesting because as a Bible study wrestle not against flesh and blood look as powers and principalities not saying that men and women aren't sinful. Don't have their sinful natures, but the ultimate battles against the spiritual forces we need to be very aware of this.

Your spiritual forces that are all around us court of the revelation of Scripture, the word of Jesus Christ. Revelation. The New Testament need to be aware to be praying appropriately for those people in your Baldy Texas who have suffered such a great loss. I can only hope I can only hope and pray that God's grace that though he allowed this to occur if their hearts are not darkened that in turn from him, but that they recognize instead with the presence of evil times when you get rid of God and this is the consequence. This is the effect may they see and turn to God, turned, and my prayer is that we are so sorry for those people who are suffering mom and moms and dads who have dropped the kids off at an elementary school only get a call or see in the news. The tragedy of their elementary school in the rush there and just incredible pain and loss of the death of the child and I know I've experienced.

It's just horrible horrible and my heart breaks with them and forth. We need we need to pray. Ladies and gentlemen pray as Christians for the binding of the evil one for the work of the kingdom of God to occur in society and that are own country would repent and turn from its wickedness and reinstate God where he supposed to be in our society. Only through him. Can we find ultimate truth and ultimate morals but without him that everything is relative, and those in power who deny giving lip service only for their convenience to gain power. Those who don't know him.

I don't believe in the absolutes of truth and moral truth, what will happen is they will use circumstances and sin and tragedy death to gain more power based upon their whims of what is right and wrong, what they think is true and because of that. This is why things are getting worse so we as Christians need to repent and not to trust your faith in government or in the trucks that bring food to the stores that we go by. We don't need to trust put our trust in those thing the trustee to be in Jesus Christ and we need to turn to him and all of us in the Christian church did need to pray for the repentance of this country. The renewal of this country. We Christians are the ones were responsible for praying the unbelievers walked therefore falls on us and we should all be praying regularly for the repentance of our country for a sweet movement outpouring of the Holy Spirit upon this nation that people would come to repentance and turn tail.

That is what is needed. Sorry for the for that that the downer opening today because of this tragedy and in Texas looking at headline Baldy Texas shooting school shooting 14 students, one teacher killed suspected shooter dead. Gov. Abbott says that a subheading Salvador Roma's 18 killed multiple children into traditional school is small city located 80 miles west of San Antonio or details or become a course and it's horrible.

Well, having said that if any of you dear want to call number is 877-207-2276.

Please give me a call.

We can talk about that or talk about whatever you want to talk about is one of just so there you go. All right, the Lord bless the children. This is good on the air on a jump right on with Alberto Georgia Hilbert.

"Welcome, buddy drawn here going that not great. My question is why I felt like I like forever moment.

There's no more convention don't want it like with the mother, not what your question, not sure if all your question on the or not. Not that we don't do the legwork of keeping ourselves in next week. We don't do that work.

God is faithful, he indwells us. He is guaranteed that we will not fail. Those were truly redeemed.

We want don't want to take credit for what God is doing with the Pentecostals off as a teacher, you can lose your salvation will then teach that you keep it by your obedience, your submission, your goodness and your faithfulness.

So it's very okay. They died again after that. I don't own a little baffled by saying what I meant. There's a breakthrough along okay. Good stuff. All real number like a vote for the lines 877-207-2276] please Matt Flynn why call 77077 charismatic slave back to the shortbread. Let's get to will have four lines 87720776 the Pearl from Virginia Pearl welcome mat with you. Give me your mind and your learned on Joe, 37, 19 when they go with Joseph speaking to God the Almighty. What I showed they cannot automatic speech by reason of darkness. What I want to know is actively a born-again, not the blood of the Lamb. Can we do anything except in other words, can we do anything to please God, except that it gone through and because of God the Holy Spirit.

First of all, I met the King James fan speaking in these downs, but somehow when you quote the King James it just sounds good. The wood, but what you quoted.

It sounds really so first of all that was good and how we please God. We can please God by being in his will, and we are not perfect at it but we want to obey the Lord Jesus Christ to love others. John 1415, were the sacrificial patient and kind of these things. Please God, no, of course, with a perfectly but still God is pleased with the attempt that we how to live is Christ to seek to do in Christ. It and this is a good thing because the goal is Jesus. The standard is Jesus were trying to and I don't rapport and I'm through interrupting right now though I born-again washed in the blood of the Lamb. I had enough because we don't hear it from Apple and that got delegated God and that the only ticket if you please. That's not a very good way to sandbag God life. He tells us in acts 2220 2028 God's life is blood his life that flowed through the veins of the Lord Jesus Christ.

I just feel like what I can do.

I don't Have good ideas because not bad, but had good it is unless it's God the Holy Spirit and me doing it. It's not what pleases God what he except well he accepts spiritual services sacrifice, which is to see both the wrong thing that I find that it's in Hebrews. Yahoo is a spiritual service of worship. Therefore urge you wrote: by the mercies of God, to present your bodies a living and holy sacrifice like I see every day is acceptable to God which is your servant spiritual service of worship. So he saying that this is acceptable. Presenting your bodies as living and holy sacrifice. Sacrifice is something given to make things right.

To make things better for others, even in so when he talks like this holy sacrifice is not sin via prepare our own sins, but that we are living sacrificially before Christ, because that's what he heated and so this is acceptable to God that is going and coming to New York to pray and God Almighty led me to pray this that I couldn't do it myself of my flesh kill everything but himself. You only wish that about a tells a thousand times, praying for that even got to the point sometimes and I want to pray.

Don't pray because what's the point. Not that he can hear me because my per person how they perfect. How are they pure how they believe that he would. God wants you to pray for sometimes assumed the product's higher priced right after the will of God in the person of Christ in your life higher than to kill everything in me but himself will you just do what Jesus did, but nevertheless not my will but your will be done. I prefer the will of the father and the will of the father is that our sin and us died. Will the father is that I go to that store tomorrow. Will the father is that I love my wife, the love of the father is that that love of law because the will of the father, he's the sovereign King sociologically, to say the will of the father is. Even Jesus submitted to the will of the father sent him so I think that is what we ultimately need to do, but what you said is correct that it's a great prayer to high prayer to say kill that evil in me and let you know what he doesn't understand it can do good, and it can do bad but it's not anything that God accepts if it fits the flash if it's a girl you know me. Here's a problem at Tri-Star how do I know how do you know how do you know seek I'm afraid of an identical okay Lord prayed like this article and I asked to glorify you. How much of that prayer in my heart is so that people will look at me think how great I am, how much is and so it was like all I know part of that is there that is that is wrong or please get rid of that within unthinking get rid of it because that's what I need to be great again. My heart is deceptive and deceitful and so I just pray so much, Lord, I can't even trust myself. I can trust my own heart. There's wickedness well where you want to go more wicked and that's why I know I know he saved me and you'd wash me and pray every day doing that the Holy Spirit or swallow me up. Not that the precious blood has not done it all, but that he will swallow me up in the light of the Lamb and saturate me in the oil of the Holy Spirit is so good to hear that it is also went out God the father said if you being evil, know how to give your children good gifts. How much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit into the dam that can well tell me, sir, when I was born again. Did I not receive the Holy Spirit within course of why and what does he say that because he's living in her heart and weird we are to ask. We are to ask God for more go on about this but first is 41 seek spiritual gifts to camp.

Although all very more more about, all I got ago that I Just so long they folks, we have open lines 877207577077 charismatic slave back to the show were the bottom of the hour and I wanted to distribute a bit of a heads up on email the day and I think you're onto something here. This is from Joseph that this particle distinct says oh you got me today.

This is from yesterday. You got me today when with the quote. If we only had 1000 people donate five dollars a month, he said he canceled his rarely used subscription to Hulu and started sending $10 a month car.

He says I know it will be used to further the kingdom of God. So only 998 more people I thought I tell you that it's not about you to keep this going.

When people know there's a feasible goal, they might be quicker to jump and maybe not just an idea.

I'd love to see you expand, you are a major part of my re-dedicate my life to the Lord and my newfound love theology ask again for you to a thick stroke. So my wife showed this to me and she is now keeping track and so we've got $10 from him and we have five dollars from Rook I think and five dollars from Ludvig sent them so to do a shot. I'll just keep mentioning it that were looking for thousand donors at five dollars a month. If you have that it would really help us a great and as I said before, we have missionaries over the world and in step five dollars month is a much, so if you're interested in supporting us all to do was go to Karma.org CA RM.O RG/donate and you can donate five dollars a month and it's of the cut and if you want you can email us and say hey you notices sent from the call over the radio wind ports for the radio when everyone and we can then titles together. No going on so that's what were talking about.

That is one of you guys know if you will do that.

Supporters all you do is go to Karma.org CA RM.org/donate and you can help with dollars month. This agreement for the Lodge going to give me a call 877-207-2276 Jason from Utah. Welcome that they got what I something about you. I would like to know why. What do you like like the light, what you like you I not found in King James. Because of these valves is this is simple and does what you're talking to somebody the D's in the house. Just don't fit in, so when I was in my early days of witnessing I would quote the King James and people look at you like what I live in Southern California.

I go down younger boogie board go surf body surfing. Talk to the people you didn't talk in King James a Elizabethan English you know you didn't do that. It's like very quickly learned to just avoid all that kind of stuff and I went to a translation.

It turned out to be a very good one. The NASB, which is very true. The Greek, more so than even the ESV and NIV library so that's why I use the NASB 95 version of putty will switch 2020.

Pretty soon, but I just did this with Paul the apostle use good for him. Good for me back to my low perspective also have like that out.

I will know I just think it's is important because of evangelistic. The people love the King James not knocking it out of nothing bad you know is just okay that's fine if you want to use it and use it in with one witness using a thin witness using it that's between you and God. My personal preference is not to have to deal with these and thousand and archaic terminology and phrases. So I just want to remove things plus the NASB because of its literalness taught me theology that the ESV would not have the NIV would not and so I lowered some theology. I need the literalness as much as possible, no as much as possible of what it says and so excited Greek in college and seminary and live a pretty good idea what it says and the stilly like I have particular verse I go to Romans 518 which they NASB says it is I believe a very good translation through through one transgression there resulted condemnation to all men, even so through one act of righteousness there resulted justification of life to own that verse is problematic because of what it actually says in the Greek and that is what it actually says in the Greek so other versions have downplayed it as one trespass led to condemnation for all men, so one act of righteousness leads to justification like long but that's not what the Greek is deciding in the King James, therefore, is the one defense of the one judgment came upon all men to condemnation, even so by the righteousness of the one the free gift came upon all men with justification like this is a free gift in the Greek and when I start seeing this, I started noticing a difference in the start be studying and I learned because of Romans 518 and the NASB, I learned about federal headship representation. I learned about other theological perspectives together how God uses words and it set me on a course of study that was very profitable.

So there you go.

I really do I really got I am too couple has looked all right hey folks, we are wide open.

If you want to give me a call 877-207-2276 and magic sure. Yes sir.

Slaves just thought about this because some we don't have any causing waves will talk with his teachers know we are hearing from if you're driving a car you want to call or if your home listing the radio station I like to hear. Four: what city and state just briefly if you want to call say hey just whatever or even if you just type just told Keith, the producer held his type it into a little connecting chat that we have behind the scenes they could tell me I'm curious what the reason is because I want to move towards the idea expending the radio show another patient and so what talk to the station owner and to see it's very early want to look which reminds me, we are looking for volunteers to work with Carmen. We need to use the body of Christ to tell you I'm I'm tapped out. I got so much to do in rewriting and writing and research and speaking and debating impromptu debates and discussions online doing stuff is racist.

Talk about something that you know about our map that we ablate do not read, they cannot read all white people bumping the law forgot your blank will work can you know what you can about, but where proverb J. Do a search looking in problem you something about the red lady called there always think buying yes that's true even realizes evil cannot rest, let's see title Proverbs finds and the only bit. So how about this verse Proverbs 460 let's see for the cannot sleep unless they do evil, and they are lot of sleep unless they make some stumble for the right of wickedness and drink the wine of violence at the path of the righteous is like the light of dawn, that shines brighter and brighter until a full day. Yep, I would sit for 60 Robert Bork 4×416 right for 16 right thank you very much welcome very much God bless. I will get you two in this recalling all those in High Point, North Carolina.

Things recall or listen to should 64, African lines 877-207-2276. Let's get to soliciting barbell and investment talking on here. I are you doing shall currently employ them every going down a okay you yes secure north of Jesus is my salvation depend on my ability to stay good, stay right, I'd be in trouble arm and coming back my path.

I love my Church. Yes, I'm starving and I animate a bit when picking that I told him I went up and tell them afterward could commute stronger that my prep animation Capi Ellen Chronicle and I can gain weight. I think that maybe you know we all have our drinking right now and when the time that he create when a doubt, ask him to scoop, ask and say what you have to do to keep yourself safe is it not to lose it you do something to keep. So what you do and then whenever the gift just ask for one, two or three things to say just to say to him are you doing those things. Question will have to ask salvation depends on this were in trouble, ready are you really are kinder serving God when I'm back on him and now you want to lay any guy moment became.

I was vaguely manic, 28, and 93 and that when I got thank you not going to work for a banner at the Wyoming church for a short while and I would make that meeting, church, and I still like to learn current the anyway, long story short, I became now compiling and I think of that for 30 years so I knew I and there you know when anything just to say hello.

I heard my character brought my path, God, let me my my three real you know again that I I know it's wrong and I tried to quit trying to play it and I told my mom and family. I feel a trading drug life rather he came to me with the Bible very vital and functional like leaving a final right now is not drunk, handing erratic and I got really I think I think a treat from our college goodwill.

Good for you is not really. And that's when I quit drinking I surrendered everything I knew my thinking. My cranking, character. I guess I had walked away from guy that got me thinking you get your guy before I got and I track I'm sure happy to hear that you know that I know the Bible. I learned gleefully securing places Jesus says I can redo the verses and if people think that your salvation is dependent on your good, you can't drink it can be a drunk. You can ask about the bad person and be a liar so that haven't well yes and no.

With the Bible talks about that talk about those who abide in it to have rejected God, and they have sought after their own center and I could be in heaven. What you do with those who are struggling. Those who know what sin and are enslaved by does it mean you're not going to heaven was meaner enslaved by God's patience is working through because too many people thought they made us think that oh no my salvation depends on mice date of goodness. If I become a drunk one that I've lost my salvation or fights get in the habit of lying. I've lost my salvation. So your salvation and depends on your goodness and that is arrogant. It's arrogant and I think it's okay to send. And we should repent and ask but I guess if anybody thinks it say in their wisdom and their ability to keep themselves right with you fully holy God by abiding by things not doing bad things than their arrogant fools also get arrogant fools. If they think that they keep themselves right with God through their effort. Their sincerity they're not doing bad things in there doing good thing because it's foolishness in the consent they can judge others will on the drunk like you you to go to hell. Why because you're drunk because you are addicted to alcohol alcoholic will okay so that means that if I stop it I get my salvation based on not doing something and repenting of it never gets me saved. So how about you, you do drink say no to.

Are you perfect what sin is. You are harboring your own heart that is habitual at that point they should shut up because we all have thoughts severed will so when the Bible says we don't good the drunk don't get into heaven, will go to that person's first contents first is 9669 books you go into it says do not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God. Do not be deceived if the fornicators I idolaters, adulterers, effeminate homosexuals, covetous drunkards were filer swindlers will near indicative of God.

It says the unrighteous. Notice what he talking about is talking about those who are deceived fornicators, idolaters, adulterers, these are people who love the Lord. These are people struggle against her sin is to see the access to the drunkards and what he does the illegal O you you you are enslaved. Alcohol is sorry you cannot go to heaven now and they misapply first content 69 misapply it. They say oh you could be in a state of salvation and be a drunkard for little while and then lose it. Can you be a state of salvation and fornicator and been idolaters in salvation and been adulterers of the effeminate homosexual covetous thief providers with what degree are they going to say which one can or can't be with Paul is doing is talking about those who were not righteous were not justified or not believers do not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God is talk about those who are not saved you.talk about those who are struggling because even Paul the apostle, he struggled and when you go to Romans seven start around verse 18 for I know that nothing good dwells in me is in my flesh for the willing is present in me, but the doing of the good is not the good that I want. I do not do practice the very evil that I do not want but if I'm doing the very thing I do not want the longer the one doing it, but sin which dwells in me seek you think it is sin in him is not things not saved so people misapply so much of the word of God in their self-righteousness is what Jesus said in John 1026 27 my sheep and my voice and I know them and they follow me and I give eternal life to them and they shall never perish. What he says if you belong to you can never but he will deal with you to be patient health discipline. I know I've been there.

I will go now might not currently pray that I would go so well okay I'm sorry but there's the music we gotta go all friendly God evokes the Lord bless you victims there by his grace.
