I had set aside. Quit worrying about the future. Go get more health insurance you will need all Christian Car Guy radio show will see all okay we got that was sort of an interesting you not take on what were going to do today.

I had anticipated but now that I've had a chance to think about it for a few minutes and really excited about it today show is we are family. Okay, now how that fits in bill is obviously your family needs life insurance bills like the ones I love you for ever going to have that happen or my file played wrong and we could talk about insurance on this.

Glad I've got Bill Nixon with me insurance is it's got everything to do with family right protecting your family if you love them there you go. So don't worry, I've got those songs are gonna play throughout the brakes were just to go so it is it is what I would call Easter Eve wonder what the Saturdays call before Easter.

I've always called it Easter. Even so very fun as we are going to talk about family and Easter today.

I'm very excited about that. So if you had to pick 12 okay you have your last supper tonight before you have to go to a fairly painful and not fairly extremely painful. This is the second coming where everybody's going away tomorrow or is this just that's the thing. This is your choice. You get to pick. So here's the question watched Colin share today so you could pick 12 people right and give me the top four, five, however you want to look about who would those be Juergen Spender last night on earth with you know who would those people be and if you're like me, you know, obviously, you know, my wife and kids kinda come to mind. And so that's how the family thing fits into that so you know it's kind like a Honda Civic in a Honda Accord nightmare up there in the same family or Toyota Camry in a Toyota Corolla.

It's a family thing or a Corvette mission that we never have figured out how those two got together with the same guy the name, but somebody thought it was really good idea.

Mike will call this Chevette a Corvette and will come under the halo family name, however, that looks but you did hear Fontaine right.

I hope you do that she is in the movie Le Ms. Rob and and she is speaking at the very end of the movie to Jean Valjean and Muzak.

She's actually taking them to heaven and what she says is take my hand. I lead you to salvation and if you read Exodus stick with six working to spend some time on it has everything to do with family and a whole lot that they would take my hand and I think you can see is just absolutely beautiful and it has to do with the sock the Passover. So in our picture God wanted us to see that was painted a long long long time ago of what Jesus would do Good Friday on Thursday on the Saturday Easter Eve was smiling alike that he looks like he's tickled so. But before we go there, Bill. I have to say speaking a family I I'm very blessed to have a lot of brothers and sisters in Christ, and last week I did this show. You might remember on is it more blessed to give or to receive yes I did and I made the point, I thought that it was really really a huge blessing to receive and that I went to Bible study with a dear friend he'd also heard the shallow end and then yesterday morning I get this text Robbie you're wrong now if you knew Tammy my wife she would tell you this is not anything that doesn't happen pretty often because I'm in a region of the actual text because it was so classic. It's his brother Robbie say she's my sister's family. I enjoyed your take on receiving rather than giving yesterday, but the Lord Jesus himself said it's more blessed to give referred acts chapter 20 verse 35 and she says I appreciate your lessons and especially your heart more than I can say your sister in Christ. Now see how beautiful is that I when you think about it. Somebody has the love for me to say Robbie, you got this wrong and I did.

I looked it up.

I've never seen that in next and then it be one of the challenges.

Where did Jesus say that because it doesn't say in the Gospels, but Paul has it forced their is more to do that. So as I went and studied that it really did learn a whole lot about the two blessings and I'll save that for another show but it just felt bad that last week I said that it's more blessed to receive and to give and I do think there's a huge thing in holiness that have to do with receiving has everything to do it Easter and get into that today is about. I know someone the gift of receiving giving rank by not taking my hand and so will see you today show and talk about the gift or or how holy it actually is to receive okay so moving on to talk about today. I just didn't want to be quoted out there thing you know I always feel I can walk around in muddy boots like him. I'm talking about things of God showing me in their hugely significant wonderfulness.

I'm very thankful for brothers and sisters and call me on stuff and my wife will always tell you all a lot and but don't you think really that someone's creation reflects them right. If you paint something or you write poetry it's gonna reflect you will. God's creation really does and if you think about God's heart in his creation.

Don't you think that family is at the heart of it right because if you look at a bear with his Cobbs or Robin Wright with its nest. I mean, think of how family is just all over anything in many Christmas movies, a billion of them have to do with family and home and this whole concept and so it's a reflection of God and in the whole deal. So when you think about it God's hand really is a huge deal in Scripture. And it's been extended to you personally really has as your father or father would leave his child and I hope you had a good father to see that picture but how about a husband that takes your hand to the altar right the hands that are so if you ever go to a Passover Seder which is a picture of what Jesus was given to its intent in Exodus 6. They have 4 cups of wine that they drink in the Passover saver Seder and they are celebrating these four things that God said to Moses when he told him he was gonna take a map out of Egypt. So here's a different take on Exodus 6 and seven and maybe you've ever heard, but I Marie this the way I believe it was that was meant to say because, like a marriage ceremony between God and the children of Israel, which he very much says, tell the children which is been my son's town and my daughters on the wrong amount. So here here's the way I believe it reads to you God promised to take your children Israel to bring them out of bondage. God says I will to deliver them. God says I will to be there kinsman redeemer God says I will those of the first 3 cups of wine.

Jesus drank at the Last Supper with his 12 and the last one he didn't drink that night and the last cup is I will take them and will you God take them to be yours. And God said, I will now. Here's an amazingly beautiful thing. I just thought this morning Bill at the end of each of those statements. In Hebrew there is extra letters and they put extra letters into two segments signify something that has to do with the word I will and what it is in Hebrew. It would be called a United and a top well if you look at those letters. In ancient Hebrew the way that Moses perhaps wrote them. It was a hand and across. I'm not kidding us when he said I will.

The way that you would say that in Hebrew.

If you're attaching it to something that you were going to do, you would attach a hand and across and so think about the beauty of this passage would God said that he's gonna take you out of bondage. He's going to deliver you. He is going to be your kinsman redeemer and he is going to take you to be yours in the way he said I will couldn't believe it was just unbelievable. I have it by the way Christian Car Guy.com you can see it and has everything to do with family. So yes you can call in the tell us your 12 your top three or four how that works. 866-34-TRUTH 87884 866-34-TRUTH insert knowledge in our monologue. I put all the references there.I.config.

The take all our family and the Christian Car Guy I am this Easter Eve talking about Exodus chapter 6 and the promises God said that he will write. He will lead us out of bondage he is or he will be our kinsman redeemer. He will take us to be his. And so if you had your Last Supper. In the end you knew you were going to go to this place would help redeemer, family, who would who with the 12 people be for you.

We have Nancy is in Chapel Hill, Nancy, you're a Christian Car Guy show good morning morning so good to hear your voice happy Easter Eve. Think about who I would have with me and you know I don't ever really needed to be your hard sorry I get out getting an talked about you know joy and it heart take away, but that you know when you're giving both the giver and the receiver and even the observer kind of thing. Coding and dopamine and endorphin level rate, which actually make a and all and when the kindness or black leather they need it or not I really think I'm the one who get the blasting but the one thing I wanted to bring up well Robbie, you know, a lot of time word hot hey you know you can do anything you want and you know it long learning.

You don't need to ask other people to help, but in law one time got really up that it means we and he said you know your not allowing me you're not allowing other people get any you're taking their joy joy away though you know it for me. I'm not saying I'm I'm begging to redeem thing. But if people want to give also allow that. You don't take away their chance. Joy you now and and it was something.

It took a while me for me to learn but then you also joy in in getting and being able to help people, but they also have to be able to receive but all of one who are involved in theologically well mentally joy it's it's a huge thing and it's really really cool when I had a chance to study because both points are really really really valid. Okay, but the word you know it's it's blessing is a completely different word then holy and when I looked at it, especially because the reference that most commentators say that when Jesus said that he was referring to what he had said in Matthew 10 eight which is freely you received now freely give.

And part is a lot of us don't freely receive and because you don't freely receive you do Rob that other person of the blessing of giving. Now getting back to our timeout today because Jesus is saying very much in this passage we talked about in Exodus 6 take my hand write one with the nails and one that has the blood, the one that you're going to take in the marriage, supplement, take my hand. That word take is to receive and if you don't take his hand is not good. I mean it.

And so it's actually holy to take, but it is a blessing to give an answer as I thought about it.

Wow if if you don't have the receiving you other people don't get the blessing of giving and so what I was talked about last week is actually valid to some extent which is more blessed it is to give, but which is more holy than it is to receive and and and I think I could make a case for that but again I could be wrong again but I'm very very appreciative for your call. So I got on the phone who would be the top person that you are too that you would want at your Last Supper, well, you want to make sure there would be my girl, of course. Of course it would. You might want to leave them and your family now is it's the deal because what I discovered Nancy very very cool is the word family in Hebrew, and the word feast have many many many letters in common and essentially feel just take my take on it. They both are a very Royal thing that has to do with consuming okay, think about a family dinner and how much you enjoy. Or if you're having Easter tomorrow with your family were doing Passover Seder. How much do we enjoy eating with those people that we love and in Jesus's case at the Last Supper. Guess who was the dinner not guess who's coming to dinner. Guess who was the façade who was the Passover. So that's really cool. Thank you for calling Nancy. We need your calls 866-34-TRUTH 788. You're listening to the truth and TruthNetwork.com all yes we are family. Today the Christian Car Guy show and since were family who would you pick for your 12 if you were to have your Last Supper as we share things with family today on the Christian Car Guy show. I got Angela is in Burlington. I'm excited about her family, Angela. You're on the Christian Car Guy ship good morning Ronnie want to say thank you because you feel, and Bob and all the regulars on the creek and guard our guide showed linking to pursuit our family and although we've never met face to face. I just love y'all so much and you're very very special to make a point. We really you know how many times I've talked to Angela over the years is been absolutely spectacular. But there are so many listeners that really God puts us in these families to share and we get to share think Emily Easter as we shall let you know that I think this is my 16th or 17th Easter sharing on a Christian Car Guy – we shared a lot of the things that with that's really really cool that is and how committed about the more blessed to give than to receive. Scripture bothered me because while in order to you need someone to try and think that as a gamer, I am more blessed than the one who received got mixed up in my head unit had difficulty for being a receiver. Basically when someone who I know a lot is trying to get something to me but come to think well, okay, this person doesn't have a lot but God in his called them to get this committee so if I don't accept it on the be closing the door of the board that person so I tried to be a gracious receiver these days. I think it says it's absolutely critical when you especially if you think about the Last Supper right they partook they take that word take in Hebrew. If you look at the letters is very much gotta the Senate which means holy. I mean it it it is a holy word. And when you think that if they didn't take the bread and they didn't take the blood or we don't take the bread and we don't take the blood you know we don't get to enjoy what Jesus did when you think about it. He tested and included 12 at the Last Supper and so he included us right here. I mean right it's it's phenomenal how that's written into the story and how cool it is the picture that was painted by God in Exodus of what it would look like to actually be freed from bondage to have this kinsman redeemer and to be delivered and again he did. He did that all of that outstretched arm, which, when you read Exodus 6 it says that he will do it with a mighty hand and outstretched arm. Well picture Jesus on the cross and that is the mightiest hand ever was with an outstretched arm.

This is really a phenomenally cool thing to realize buddies ease reach that handout does not wail.

I would well well my mom and dad passed away and I had no brothers or sisters bought all my cousins and one person here in my apartment complex really, that would that his following victim to Allstate. I would love to sit down with you one more come and talk to heal to see the scales fell from his got some really wild beliefs nail alien in the church so he he at one time we now take church Angela I mean I'm even thought about that.

That's why love my listeners and I like even thought about inviting those people that tried to talk to many times and never could see the light come up on their in their lives. You know what a beautiful bill you got admit hi and I think she needs and we got to apply some more breath in claws for that that that's that's just it. Outstanding answer she's getting it for us so you don't want to leave Angela till we get the apostle so wonderful a happy Easter to you Angela and God bless you, thank you so much for calling in today.

As always, you guys are family and and we appreciated only been absolutely now God bless have a great great Easter Eve, Robbie, and a great day tomorrow. Yes, thank you bye-bye so we need your call, you know who your 12 866-34-TRUTH 87884 so I might just fall asleep.

Later on in the garden but it's okay 866-34-TRUTH 87884 about you bill people need to remember salvation is a gift you can do one of two things with the gift you can accept a gift to you can decline a gift that will were talking to folks about Jesus and the opportunity to spend the everlasting listing with God. We need mentioned him on the God's given you a gift is not absolute.

It's not nailed a new, it's something you either pick up and take her.

It's something you walk past and its content held, not nailed Jesus yeah and there's a really neat thing to do about that that is nailed to a tree right and and and I actually have got a Passover Seder I get to go do with my slick my good friend and madman this afternoon and one of the things I get to teach on our how many Zada leaks are in those in the Hebrew version of those words that I'm going to take you out of bondage I'm going to deliver you, be there kinsman redeemer and I meditate you to be yours.

It's amazing how much that you would see a tree involved in all the statements because it takes a tree to make things right.

And that's that. That whole idea of the righteous one right because when they roasted that laminate was roasted over what I don't know if you ever lives, dad, and when God was saving now in the article it was made out of wood right whets the mercy seat made of wood and you know CE you get the picture that these trees are blossoming right now. Wherever you are a hoe.

You're someplace where there blossoming beautifully. Whether their Bradford pears or cherry trees or whatever they're celebrating the righteousness that came on Easter I I'm convinced I mean whenever I look at him. I'm going down the highway and I see all those trees in bloom. I know beyond a shadow of a doubt that it's that it's that it's righteousness.

We do have Lynn who is the car lady so I'm excited about that when you're on the Christian card I show good morning. I just wanted to call and thank you so much.

I finally went and purchased the car O dealership for me and I when he hadn't got the car and me a little while Bill and showed me the features and everything and for you okay so I just recently bought it and brought it home in the person that sold it to me and brought it out to the house and everything that was wonderful and she went over the features with me. However, between the time that I made the purchase and actually picked up the vehicle and brought it home I put it in the garage for couple days I was a little nervous about all the features on the vehicle when I went to look more closely at it. Several things that she had sat in the car and went over with me. I'm not on the vehicle. My client and I hate to go to break in the middle of. That's a great question. Where you discover more about that little back story is Lynn lives in Washington and she was in need of a car without going out and didn't so we will work on that when we get back. Plus we need your story of your 12 will look forward to that.

When we got to see all we are family today on the Christian card I show times I've heard that song that always makes surprising well it is pretty phenomenal ending ever see it when Ms. Robin anyway to love another person is to see the face of God and what 12 people, would you take with you to go to your Last Supper, what might that look like what were talking about today in the Christian card I show but I also need to mention to you that today at 1 o'clock on the Truth Network. If your list of the Truth Network.

We have Amy combo and that you are and what a neat topic she has today. One might the truly near and dear to my heart and it speaks to family is the mental health stigma and and I have a dear friend one time wrote a book it said the ailment to get snow chicken soup right like you go on your Sunday school class to say well I'm suffering with bipolar disease from suffering with depression, you know you not have a lot of people show up at your door. You know you know offering to help in that situation. It scares people. And so there's a stigma attached to mental health, and a lot a lot of people believe it has to do with faith in all that cost us a one opportunity have to date of this naming certainly does have some experience in this area and the calling with your views 866-34-TRUTH same thing beyond today at 1 o'clock with Amy combo and mature so when we left Lynn, our hero in Washington. She had again due to covert and some other things that she has in her family needed the car brought out to her and she called me and I helped her do that. It was really a neat experience.

But now the cars they are and as she was describing some of the things that they were teaching you on how to use features when you're looking for the future feature you can't find them now on the car. Now I cannot find them there.

Well I guess you may not bear so I had a neighbor, who is well acquainted with all the features on the vehicle and he said no you, you do not have. For instance, the map, a chair and you don't have the lane departure feature various things that the woman had gone over with me while we were there and showed me that it was there and so my question to you is, have you heard of this happening before where a vehicle is purchased in some sometime between actually picking up the vehicle and and all that. Some things have been removed and it is this legal. I mean, I purchased the vehicle with these features I just it's just standard like the map I think I have a solution. Okay so what I will do is Monday when they're open again and I have time I will call the dealership and I'll ask to speak to the salesman in the meantime, if you want to email me the feature specifically that that you feel like you're missing or I'll call you back Monday and get that from you. You just writing down what whatever that is and I'll call you back and I'll get them from your mom and I'll call the dealer and will see you know what their take is on the things that you feel like an and in and will get it resolved. That's the best thing. I appreciate that absolute I I know how to witness and what to do next.

And my guess is it's a misunderstanding of some kind and those happen you know is so easy, especially when it comes to features on the car because they are so complicated and there are so many things that all my goodness, especially with ecology, but a Camry that that's all-wheel-drive and all got all sorts of feature so I'm excited to get that resolved 40 went okay. Thank you and your staff there and I enjoy your program and I just want to say once again how much I appreciated your help. I don't think I would've been able to actually get a new vehicle without your assistance. So Robbie, thank you so much to spend that God sent to me. I just so much appreciated by placement really was fun to get back and then do that kind of thing again. I hadn't done in a while so I look forward how God resolves and be praying for the resolution over the weekend.

Thank you Lynn God bless you. Happy Easter. Thank you. So we got. Karen is been hanging on for a long time in Raleigh and Karen you're on the Christian card I show the morning we lost Karen call us back.

Karen, I want to know about your 12 but Bill, you got you got 12, I was just thinking the last time I really enjoyed buying the vehicle was a long time ago I lost my salesman. Oh well, you guys think in you. You walked in early and you said who the last 12 people you want to eat with before you, you died. And I was thinking about what in the world.

Yet, was that Jim Jones dinner was that a titanic dinner dinner before I hop on a plane to go on a trip 12 totally different people depended on which way I looked at it okay to send my list was wrong and I have my family I love my family.

My family members.

We go to see me off before I get on that plane anytime I can have a meal with my wife about children. It would just be one of my father's been gone quite a while.

It would be just so nice to see him again and then my list would goes in different direction. Some folks in history. It would be nice to have had a chance to break bread with their some people I respect and like you had just made a big difference in my Christian walk, that would be wonderful to have break bread with that sort have to rip my head to read exactly what happens after the end of that field.

Fill in the state other thing of it is that I you know is I just picture my own no 12 that I would be sitting with and I will going all the details of who that might be, but they make up who I am.

All of them have that place in my heart and and you think Jesus brought the 12 thing I love that Jesus did his can like Capt. Kirk with the no-win scenario. He said I'm not just having 12 that I had to keep a few of the part of the deal and then he washed their feet right and then he celebrated these cups with them at and again I exit the six and seven are a beautiful thing to go study it Easter time because God was painting this picture I had this big beautiful canvas and he wanted to show what bondage look like he wanted to show what redemption Lapine but but most of all he wanted to show you what Jesus the classic, and a look like a Passover lamb that would take away the sin of so tomorrow morning right, but then he is risen. Yes, he has will look for that guys we are so grateful for your listen all the phone calls today and I'm maybe next week give you the result resolution to Lynn's issue. So we got so much going on.
