Maybe can set you straight on some things to write straight to the phones we go to Justin in Fort Worth, Texas. Welcome to the line of fire.

Dark brown brown. The first one first one and yeah you got in early well I have a question about Hebrew and black magic language in occult likely yeah think so far though, the part where God in that unit. The talk about belt world so we shall make in our own image and then again during Donatello, Babel spoken English down the bike got oral and I noted the day okay make that sound like God dealt oral fashion.

Someone in English with a well that the Royal we know in English we have of Royal we know the claimant they we have had a delicious breakfast and I have been very bad that the Royal we exist in Semitic languages to God for their areas of the Royal we did not in Semitic linkages. I think English got it wrong. Got it on the Bible that the military but what if it didn't exist in Semitic languages and God speak about himself and oral first person and because he did that sort of got added to the medic language like Hebrew and Arabic. I know for sure right so the argument that we go against that is that you have attestation of pleural usage in in other ancient inscriptions that would even predate the writing of the Bible from other Semitic languages that certainly didn't get it from Hebrew. So, for example, you might want to call the L Amarnath inscriptions all right house so these were writings to the Pharaoh in Egypt from from various Canaanite under lords and things like that in a row in Acadian because that was that the common language that was used Semitic line was called Acadian sold a king would say I bow down before before Farrell my gods pleural so we know that plural just speaking of deity or something powerful. You could use plural so Elohim God, which is also God's that usage was common. Now there is a debate about the Royal we know let Austin Creek led us to this.

You certainly have it in other parts of the ancient world. You cannot say that it came from Hebrew always influence by Genesis I that argument.

What will not work.

The question is do you have it in verbal forms and in other words, it's one thing to say, we were pleased with this. You know an NDA's emphasis on us in that respect. But when it's a whole sentence like I said down so Mina could need to know let us make man in our image, according to our likeness. The cycle further than the Royal we. There is debate among Semitic scholars on these very issues. Some cause the deliberative plural. Let's do it, then how do you have our image our likeness.

You have that same hour.

Genesis 3. The men will become like us and then Genesis 11 tower valving mentioned in Isaiah 6, whom shall we send, and who will go for us so it happens enough times that there is a matter of speculation and rabbinic literature is a God and the angels are God, and the elements and here's what I would say insured tested and I love your theories and way of thinking that's great of it is not conclusive that this is speaking of God's plurality God's tri-unity is surely not conclusive. You cannot use these text to argue for that in a conclusive way because of other Semitic usages and things like that. However, at the same time.

This is certainly in harmony with God's tri-unity and can easily lean in that direction. So I use it as a secondary support, not a primary argument for God's tri-unity, but to say hey this is in harmony with God's tri-unity and this is a very natural way to read the text to be considered it from this angle so great questions great think.

I appreciate building I'd say no. Is that the ancient Semitic line. Discuss the concept from Hebrew now when we get the Royal we in English. This icon just from European culture in general does that come from biblical language is via King James. He did before that.

Those are those are other questions to pursue hey thank you sir for calling 86634 let's go to Micah in Florida. Hope your mother Micah. Welcome to light a fire, Dr. Brown, are you good are you speaking right into the phones are I am I or you go ahead about the fight bring the gate and gave him the conservative movement. I'll have any problem with pageboy and conservative movement because I'll get any different than a court hearing on the printer to move it. However, when you fight for gate and the concert that usually means fighting for gay values like the American transgender ideology, but it concerns me that turning point USA has brought met the gay man married to another man about Deepak having lady Maca at drag point I'm different about that your documents yeah Micah, I share your concerns. Number one is first treating all human beings as equals. As far as welcoming all human beings and into the into the fold. You know, whenever someone wants to do and participate in as long as it's not breaking rules or forcing something on someone else. Great. So you know, for example, if a man identified as a woman, but still recognizes a biological mail and wanted to race against man wearing a wig. That's his prerogative, right. But if he is now going to race against women then it becomes an area where it's unfair so if it's a matter of hey, gays, lesbians, bisexuals, atheists, Jehovah's Witnesses, Mormons, it'll didn't come up with your list of many different categories of want to vote Republican or woman vote conservative way, welcome everybody is welcome the Democrats and since everybody's welcome right.

But if you are now going to try to change the agenda then becomes a problem and generally speaking that's what's can happen. Look, if it was me if I was part of a group of conservative followers of Jesus, and we were being welcomed into the Democratic Party, you better believe I want to be there to bring about change. I might say hey I appreciate these various values, but otherwise I'm there to bring about change. So I understand why gays would be involved knows they might support the president's economic policies are immigration policies and things like that but then they don't like some of his other stances so they were very much a smoke. That's what everybody does.

But how should the leaders respond to the to me it's more important to hold to your foundational platform issues to the purity of things that matter most. That's what's most important is secondary to get more people to join. So if I have to water down the agenda compromise value to get more people on board.now I've already defeated the whole purpose right that's right right so let's just say were painting the wall white but we need more people. The pain, but the people that join us have have brushes that are have black paint on it will soon enough the whole wall is as though mixed right Russell I I share the concerns so everyone's welcome and if you can support the platforms as they are and stand with us in our values as they were great and if you're there to bring about change, but we welcome your vote but would you resist the change you want to bring about sought. I think you make a mistake there.

That's a dialogue that I had with Dennis Prager in terms of the video that that Prager you put out what you're have to go something like that were Guy Benson gets up and he says hey I'm a Christian first conservative second American third gay fourth and and he is in a normally with us on conservative causes many ways, but the goal of that video was to get people on the left to realize say this a bigger tent on the right more welcoming on the right than on the left which can be so bigoted and hateful, etc. and it shouldn't happen. The thing never should have gone forward. He agreed with that. Afterwards and they never pushed it advertised it.

His thing was a adult by all means we have to expose and defeat the left is like yeah but not by watering down conservative values so II share concerns. Micah and this is what we have to hold the line by God's grace and not against people with values.

Hey, I expect.

Gay activist hold to their values, so don't expect conservative Christians are conservative others do not hold to their values.

Let's have dialogue, discussion and advocate for what we think is best and that we have it out in the courts and and and and and in interaction and in voting right. I thank you for the call 866-34-TRUTH. I tell you what Rob in Seattle.

Welcome to the want to fire you may be able to ask your question, but no answer on them so the brakes go for it, sir. Thank you. Thank you Dr. Brown. My question is around Daniel 924 to 27 of the week.

I have heard I backward you look at it and I third and not Jesus you know that I did wonder that me and Diane barely it for you know an anointed one, and that you did it because of certain things, so there evident that it is Jesus overhyping the night. What are your thoughts on that.

Yes, so surround the bottom line is that if it's the high priest Ananias if it has to do with events hundred 5060 years before the time of Jesus that didn't happen nothing. Phil was let's not even debate the identity of Michiana anointed one, and with two anointed ones in the past one this is basically the moment. Just look at what's laid out a 920 did that happen. Those things this category band on that give us a break. Look at what 924 says that happen prior to Jesus. No member by the Expo line of fire with your host Dr. Michael Brown your voice and more cultural and spiritual revolution.

Apply for classes get registration and and then just take one class to get started to glow first-year class if you like it.

Keep going right fire school of ministry.com so Rob the the critical view in reading Daniel the nice chapter is that it speaks of events that took place roughly hundred 5006 years before the time of Jesus that it's the cleansing of the temple after the defiling of of Antiochus epiphanies and things like that and that Daniel, speaks in exaggerated ways because it's not everything. He describes it really happens there but because the critical scholars and unbelieving inspiration. Inspiration of Scripture. But we do believe in inspiration of Scripture have a problem because there was a cleansing of the temple and certain things to take place but but nothing near what's actually recorded there so when you look in Daniel 924 and this is explained that the standard spring at the end of the 70 years in exile that he would looking at appeared at a 70 years but 70×7, 490 years mentions an anointed one is beginning on some of the listener to different anointed ones okay and then the second anointed will be cut off and have nothing of her cut off enough for himself. Could that be risk referring to Jesus the Messiah. I say yes. But even if we don't argue that. Let's let's look at what's written. Read the ESV 70 weeks are decreed about your people and your holy city to finish the transgression, to put an end to sin, to atone for iniquity, to bring in everlasting righteousness disables vision profit and to anoint the most holy place or potentially the most holy one will read from the NET because there's some controversy about how to translate some of the words so this been determined to put an end to rebellion, to bring sent to completion, to atone for iniquity, to bring in perpetual righteousness, to seal up the prophetic vision to anoint the most holy place and then I'll read from the senior Jewish version until the measure of transgression is filled and that of sin, complete until iniquity is expurgated and eternal righteousness ushered in a prophetic vision, ratify the holy of holies not itself else.

It didn't happen under high priest.

This this is glorious end time atonement.

This is this is the Messiah paying for our sins. This is everlasting righteousness being brought in. This is what the cross does and then after that by the time we get to verse 27.

The temple is then destroyed. So this has to happen before the second Temple was destroyed so I just asked how else is that fulfilled other than through the cross that make sense for yeah what the Temple destroyed during like the Maccabees or by the time little temples destroyed in the year 7040 years after temples defiled before the days of the Maccabees in the revolt, but it's not destroyed destroyed until your 7040 years after the death and resurrection of Jesus, and it was destroyed prior to that another time. Right 586 first Temple was destroyed by the Babylonians in 586 BC.

Then it was rebuilt roughly 50 years later, that restarted that it was destroyed in your 70 in the midst of the. The first Jewish revolts of the second Temple was destroyed. Then as remained destroyed until this day. A thank you for the call appreciate 866-34-TRUTH, let's go to Sherm in New Jersey.

Thanks for: the line of fire. My question do with what I think is your background and near Eastern languages include Aramaic sure course okay because art the language of course the Jesus spoke and then are you familiar with the Aramaic version of the New Testament called the Shada's okay. And how about George Alonso who was a native English speaker Aramaic speaker who translated the New Testament into English, sure, familiar, I can answer any questions you have.

Okay I've had trouble since I was a kid even before he became well-versed in the Bible with very Jesus utterance allegedly in Aramaic on the cross provided in two places in the Gospels Matthew 2746 and 49 if you want to read the whole thing in context of Mark 1534, 36, yet none of his other utterances on the cross include original Aramaic some wondering why why is that white kept it with that utterance but not the others and was it translated properly or was there a reasonable doubt on the part of the translators know the first thing is that it's it's virtually word for word what we have in school the Aramaic Targum the.

The ancient Jewish translation paraphrase of the Hebrew Bible into Aramaic. Okay she have that and she's brother. The sheet is the whole Bible since the Syriac, which is a branch of Aramaic is the major branch of Aramaic called Syriac, so the patient is the entire Bible, Old Testament and New Testament translated into Syriac, which like this is a major branch of Aramaic, a but there are some variations in the scripts or are totally different but the utterance of Jesus on the cross is the only one where they actually record what he he says in any reason language the resources I servicer it is finished. They don't record his words in Aramaic or fetid smoking Hebrew is not recorded rather through those just recorded in Greek but the words my God, my God, what you forsake me those recorded in Aramaic and they mirror.

Basically what we have in the Targum. The Aramaic translation/paraphrase of the Hebrew Bible and clearly the goal is to get us pointing to Psalm 22 to get the reader to go to Psalm 22 and read it and read it all the way through because it speaks of his deliverance from death and the glorious salvation that goes to the ends of the earth as a result of that out. Why is that actually given well it's to explain most likely out why some of the people misunderstood and thought he was calling for Elijah right you know because otherwise, like what is that mean if you just put it in Greek what is called for Elijah. Ha. So if you actually spell it out in Aramaic as part Aramaic and and and or Hebrew, but I mean that's common to kind of have that little mixture of yellow then that it makes sense that there is no Elijah's Eliahu my God is Allie and here's got crucified dying man. What's he actually saying it's hard to understand all right with that. That would be the reason for spelling that out now. There there are some people who believe that Jesus spoke Hebrew, more than Aramaic, and that's why they say they remember the Aramaic more likely you know Tully's are Kumi you know young girl, I said you get up.

Why is that recorded for certain things just registered in their mindset lies in the became passed on to the fact that Jesus called his father Abba, which is Aramaic for for father/daddy and and that's repeated the epistles, Abba, or for example Maren NASA that's actually Aramaic. Most organelle yeah, our Lord, Ronna saw certain words and phrases, statements like them in English. We talk about Cornelia. We know that his fellowship right is all right but but but right that the point. The point is, it's a Greek word that were familiar with one another word so sometimes that's just the way it gets passed on, but specifically, in this case of the most likely reason is laid out is so that you now understand why the people thought he was calling for logic as the words sounded the same patient. Thank you for the call. I appreciated 8663 Fortune's we go to New York City.

Anthony, welcome to the line of fire. Hello… Michael, you bet. My question at about the time and at the end of time during the great tribulation.

Some sort of alien phenomenon phenomenon will be manifested. Keeping even more. The world and that he could beat up three unclean spirit that look like rock they come out of the mouth of the prophet and the Dragon. That there are spirits of devils, working medical yet so did you say specifically alien entities yet yeah Anthony know why I I understand that Jesus warns in Matthew 24 against false prophets and false signs and wonders that second Thessalonians 2 says that the man of sin.

The antichrist will will perform counterfeit signs, wonders and miracles of that's been done through the ages. It does seem at the end of the ages, there is tremendous outpouring of the Spirit great harvest and then along with that great deception now. It could be that there's all kinds of deception, including what claims to be aliens that there could be some type of of hallucinatory things going on, or enough if we can have these holograms you know and and looks real and you know that there be demonic, counterfeit sin and and and sleight-of-hand and those kinds of things that come deception possible but honest anything in Scripture that points to increased alleged alien activity at the end of the just increased deception, which could include pseudo-alien that that was not really aliens, but some kind of reception of some kind. But no, I don't see specific reference to alien thanks for asking. The line of fire with your host Dr. Michael Brown line of fire now by calling 86.

Here again is Dr. Michael Brown joy to be with on the line of fire 866-34-TRUTH that is the number to call 866-348-7884. Any question of any kind related to any subject that we touch on the broadcasting anyway. Phone lines are open. Let's see we go to Jake up in Iowa. Welcome to the line of fire. Hi Dr. Brown ticket straight to the point, it seems pretty clear to me that the references to yes you are notary in the Talmud are referring to two different individuals and they don't seem consistent with the biblical or historical Yeshua the Messiah we believe and so I have some of the passages pulled up and I just wanted to.

I know that you have indicated that you do feel like the Talmud is referring to are you sure I and so it's just it's debatable and, in other words, this is massive amount of scholarly debate over it.

Traditional Jewish friends that I work with counter missionaries, and others.

They do not believe the passages are referring to our Jesus, Yeshua, your average traditional Jew grows up reading those he thinks they are referring to Jesus Yeshua for centuries that's been the way it's been interpreted or understood by by men, traditional Jews, I got a call yesterday from a man raised in ultra-Orthodox home in Israel and he explained what he believed about Jesus based on the Talmud and rabbinic sources and help what a bad guy. He was so that regardless of whether they do refer to him or not.

Again this colliery. I think some do and others don't.

But either way, it's debatable.

So go ahead Jacob yeah why really support your your take on evangelistic efforts towards the Jewish people and I just feel like after thorough examination of it. It would be probably more effective to say hey the Talmud really doesn't refer to issue the Messiah and you know it's been used actually by Chris by so-called Christians to accuse the Jews and and is in a really bad way. So I feel like you know and I can plug some other scholars who agreed on P and EIE are marginal. June 1912 19 everyone Louis Louis Ginsberg yet yeah you know Cardinal had okay I'm reading an article by Gill student and yes it's actually on etc. on Jews for Judaism.Oregon. I I thought to myself, you know, there's no reason I want to embrace this being about issue and I'm convincing to me at least, that it is so 00 some of the gentleman that is put together something much, much more detailed than dingo students there but II cite his stuff as well because he is an Orthodox to and Rabbi Moshe Shulman counter missionaries that we are butting heads over the gospel all the time. He does very detailed work. He and his view, there is no memory in the Talmud of of of the Jesus of the New Testament. No reference to him a Rabbi Shmuel Lebo taxa have debated with does not believe the passages refer to him. Peter Schaefer is comprehensible Jesus in the Talmud. He believes that there are references that that do apply to him. But just as you Jacob when dealing with anti-Semites who point to these passages to show how evil Talmud is it's perfectly fair to say there is scholarly debate among Jewish and Christian scholars as to whether any of these passages actually refer to the Jesus of the New Testament and we do know that that Yeshua was a common name without the Catholic Church censored these passages out did not allow them to be printed in volumes of the Talmud are written out by having funds to the Talmud because they thought they were tax on Jesus so they were censored out by the church, but for for anti-Semites and others that use the that the Talmud protect the Jews.

You can fairly and honestly say that there is scholarly debate about it. I'm glad you have the Gill student source.

I will book, due out in September on Christian anti-Semitism. I get into this and even greater detail and will this further sources. The problem of Jacob is that many traditional Jews reading this do think it's referring to Jesus and in their mind the Tom is one of them about what a bad guy. His so that's another issue to overcome.

But thanks for the call and I'm so glad you got some of sources in front of you there great sources of 866-34-TRUTH go to Michigan. Jim walking to the line of fire. Thank you Mike talk to Dr. Brown you're very welcome. I would like to first discuss Daniel 920 7W recently had done a program talking about a post tribulation rapture and I agree with that gun. I'm wondering if the ward he the first word and lease members and I'm looking at the words he should be there so many take this verse to mean this will kind of be the beginning of Daniel's 70th week. The confirming of the covenant right and I head and they take ketamine antichrist but when you look at the Hebrew, there is the word the bar go far in amine strengthen or confirm and then a covenant is like Paris, but the there isn't a key, it just mean that the 70 weeks you know, this did not have you not read Hebrew. Yet with all respect at reading the Hebrew correctly, there has to be a subject rights of the beer means and and he will magnify or make great of the covenant Breedlove a beam to diminish of well, one week so the question is who is he that there has to be right subject implied so you have the immediate context which is in in the previous verse that it does mention a ruler so the Nikes hub that the coming ruler.

So that's the. The likely subject of the risk that the Hebrews clear.

If you're reading it. You know okay have got to go back who is if I just read verse 727 psycho K just really told me it be like if I said and Pres. Trump is coming to Washington, and he will give a speech and and and he will talk for an hour who's the heat you just look back saving Hebrew yet to affect verse 2065 who he is okay.

I knew that the Encarta had to be revealed before the second coming on the day of our Lord and I know that that in the middle of that 70th week he will that in the holy place, proclaiming himself to be God. In the next verse, the abomination that causes desolation and I was thinking it sometime close to there is where we would see the antichrist but also so here's all here, so here's the deal. Jim this is this is that the big questions are is Daniel that let's say that there are three ways to read the 70th week of Daniel. One is it refers to events all past fulfilled with the destruction of the Temple in the year 70 A.D. that would be the way I'm most inclined to read another way of reading it and this would be the way a dispensationalism would read it is that the week has not it come to pass that we have the first 69 weeks of come to pass in out a gap of roughly 2000 years so far before the 70th week will come to pass in his only future right Henson antichrist as opposed to a first century Roman ruler, a certain way of reading it, which is possible to me. I don't see the second way is possible, but the third way is possible.

Namely, that just as Matthew 24, Mark 1321.2 events that took place the generation after Jesus with the destruction of the Temple in your 70 and also point to future events that the end of the world and the final destruction of Jerusalem and in the return of Jesus that the 70th we could have a final parol account of a repeat of the final abomination of desolation. The final sinful ruler. The final destruction so that would that would be a way of reading if that might reconcile some of the points you're making in terms of an antichrist. Figure and yet reading this in a post tribulation away hates thank you for thinking these things through and digging into the Hebrew myth. I appreciate… And in 927 and the whole passage 924 27 steps. The most difficult verse to interpret out of all of them for sure. I thank you sir for the call.

I appreciated 866-34-TRUTH. Let's go to Virginia Isaiah welcome to the line of fire. Dr. Brown: one. Appreciate all the work that you thanks recall a man yeah I'd had a quick question so I've been I know that the Messiah there has to be all probably the have failed and I would question what I am a believer myself, but the question was that you know in order for Jesus to be the Messiah.

How can just be the Messiah and the tribes of Israel are not about Bob but I'm not really have a good information on one insurance so of passages like Isaiah 42 in Isaiah 49 speak of the mission of the Messiah to the nation of Israel and 49 particular, it says that that while he'll be a light to the nations also regather the tribes of Israel and a traditional Jew would say that will no that someone is the Messiah. When he does various things. One of them is to regather Jewish exiles all need to understand is that there are two phases to the Messiah's work in the Scriptures, ladies out very plainly that he does priestly work he dies for sins member. He is a priestly king. This is explicit in Scripture in Psalm 110 and Zechariah 6 is a priestly king so he doesn't just rule and reign. He does priestly work as well, which has to do with atonement for sin and being our intercessor in our substitute and things like that so first he comes to cleanse us of our sins to die for our sins to to bring us into right relationship with God, as Scripture says, is rejected by his own Jewish people. He becomes a light to the nations of the world and when he returns as the king of Israel, he will establish his kingdom on the earth at that time is the final regathering of the exiles at that time is the destruction of the wicked.

At that time is the establishment of the kingdom in Jerusalem several is not really the Messiah because he didn't do the first reading through all of it at one time but Scripture indicates that he had to do his priestly work he had to die for our sins rise from the dead, be rejected by his people before the second Temple was destroyed. He had to do those things. First, by doing those things we know… The only possible candidate for the rest of the first part on time to phases through his work suffering in the exultation. Thanks for the great question.

It's the line of fire with your host activist, author, international speaker and theologian Dr. Michael Brown voice of more cultural and spiritual revolution get into the line of fire now by calling 6643 here again is Dr. Michael Brown as friends for being part of the modifier broadcast sure to check out my latest articles upon stream.org why not Judaism for Jews and Christianity for Gentiles.

Why not stop bothering Jewish people with the message of Jesus mission light of church persecution of Jews in the past. Why why the Jews have their covenant with God through Torah ready. Why not just leave it there, Jesus, for the Gentiles that don't have God in Judaism for the Jews because there have God of course it breaks down fundamentally thousand different levels but read article they can be some more fuel for the fire and then if you wanted to get even further as part of my new book resurrection investigating Rabbi from Brooklyn, a preacher from Galleon event to change the world. We would've been talking about that book a whole lot more suffer. The virus is a book about beginning a more action in the virus hit so we can talk about the book you wrote on the virus when the world stops one that ordered the paperback copy they are doing our office this coming Wednesday. We plan to sign them.

That same day and send them out to you all right 866-34-TRUTH let's go to Devin in Hawaii. Welcome to the line of fire. Mark Brown very well regularly work with Toby at bingo about 30 years ago, Marjorie Kellogg, IPV against that argument to but not pick up the much gone but the question today is about church is still preaching Malachi when it comes to typing I gave you That bar that you give priestly ministry in everything you do declare the glory of God. But I know that a lot of churches go preaching Malachi. You are not allowed and you don't give your under a curse, and things like that – so I asked about why we do preaching Malachi right so it is it something else and smile against the same preachers and leaders that say were not under the law love to preach from the law when it comes to tithing, but because tithing is a wonderful life-giving principal in the spirit of it. As you say, is reinforced in the New Testament going to New Testament, we should give regularly, we should give systematically, we should give generously. We should give according to our income so that all supports tithing and more so Devon, I'm all for preaching for Malachi 3 to encourage to challenge faith.

I'm not for preaching for Malachi 3 in a legalistic way that you will be under curse. If you don't do it now any local church can say everyone's welcome.

But if you want to become a full member. We ask you to tithing the certain limits that whatever they want things he have to wear bowtie to come torpedo to be a full member right but as far as just preaching what Scripture says, the Holy Spirit has has caused those words to come alive to me in the past. One particular key time real financial challenge when I felt that the Lord specifically challenge Miller's words.

The only time in the Bible where God says prove me always is always testing us resist test me and I felt him challenging me you give to me first. You ties and you want to run the Duke is a roast if I ties that I would not have money to pay certain bills and we lived in this in this little house upstairs from the landlord, and if you did that was money on time. You did not want to be around that and I still specifically felt challenged by the Lord that first came alive, I remember writing the checks you know ties check etc. and then I went out in sales and had the biggest single day in the history of the company and finally the biggest they have ever had was the week was a crazy week. It was so supernatural I couldn't deny that God spoke and it doesn't mean there's there's no other explanation so it is part of Scripture. There's a principal so I'm all for preaching the principal to encourage people and to consummate give put God first seek the kingdom first make a heavenly investment first watch what God's going to do. I'm all for that I am against hitting people over the head with it. Telling them will be under curse. If they don't do it say they are commanded to give it to the local church. That's what I'm against. But the spirit of it. The challenge of it on for so all depends on Devon how your pastor does it and then how big an issue. It is even if he doesn't way that offends you.

If you love everything else about the church. They just haven't it if you have that relationship say pastor is wondering, it isn't some of that old covenant under the Sinai covenant and can we preach the spirit of it without the, the law of it and go from there. But may the Lord guide you NMA that may the Lord continue to expose the error of Tovar Singha and continue to set people free into the truth the glorious truth of Jesus. Sure, the Messiah, if you don't overtime out terms of deception go to yesterday's broadcast friends we show you from your eyes. Yesterday's broadcast all right 866-34-TRUTH let's go to Carlos in Texas.

Welcome to the line of fire. Thank you Dr. Brown just wanted to automate value has brought you to get your ministry. Our joy thank you So I was talking to friend of mine is a Christian you live in India and that he was at any what happened.

Those never give the gospel for my understanding, especially in the Romans one, Paul talked about in our diverse 20.

No man is without my understanding, it God reveals himself, and you also know, but that the moral law in our heart and the backpack question that will why should we end up sharing the gospel. If God revealed to the people are consulted of people around.

Yes, a good logical thought.

Romans one that through creation, God has revealed himself people that excuse Romans to. He's written the moral law on our hearts. Even without the written law you can can recognize what's right and wrong so you could make that argument. Everyone's without excuse, then why preach well because everyone fall short. That's the problem that we fall short, we condemn ourselves with the choices that we make and that the pardon needs to be brought in Romans 10 how can they hear without a preacher so we go because people are lost and living in darkness and let's just say theoretically Carlos that there are people out there who responded to God's revelation in nature responded to the conviction of the moral law within them and cried out for mercy and help so great being there. I know you're there. Help me how many people is that what is that represent as opposed to going with the free offer of the gospel to the entire world and proclaiming now. Ultimately, Carlos. I don't think Scripture is explicit in terms of every human being. In other words that I can categorically say that every human beings not heard the gospel is lost because there's no salvation outside the cross. You can save yourself.

I can't say that God did not reveal himself in different ways to people and that that through that they turn to him. They believe the life they had member Galatians 3 says Abraham believe the gospel. But the gospel he heard was that through his see the whole world would be blessed so when someone says to me what happens to someone I never heard I said God knows and God's righteous judge, and he will treat everyone fairly that we know we know the character of God. But it's our obligation to tell them the good news that there since been paid for, so that answers both things leave them to God. But understand, is a lost world. Jesus died for the let's go and tell them the good news. The pardon has been granted hate.

Thank you for the call. Always a perennial question that comes up let's go over to James in London one to quantify.

Time is short so please dive right in. Yes, yes you may remember quoting Kershaw a couple years ago and about the main feeling. I've been doing a lot of research I decided not to locate may be placed. One very interesting argument that I found the PaperPort regarding the practice of praying saints, which they share with mom thought this was the date was originally a Jewish practice and I got another text on give me but Deve pointed to various scriptural references extra scriptural references references the Jewish prayer and apocryphal text. The thing I just wonder if you got an Expo in Judaism had any comment on my knee and find any anything to you so mean, there's a reference in one of the apocryphal books of prayer to the saints. There are no scriptural references to prayer to the saints. Nothing in the Hebrew Bible that refers to that now. Judaism does teach and on the merits of the righteous and things like that and that the righteous live on, and you'll have with certain acetic mystical branches of Judaism special prayers that will be prayer.

Other branches of Judaism at the graves of rabbis and things like that. See you do have some practices like that that developed but they develop without scriptural precedent. That's the key thing was there many many practices that are reflected in many books that are not part of the Bible. But this reason a part of the Bible is because they they they deviated from scriptural practice.

So the big thing is what we all agree on canonical texts right so the 39 books of the Old Testament, which divided differently in Hebrew with the 39 books of the Old Testament and the 27 books of the New Testament so Albright Catholicism, Eastern orthodoxy, we would all agree this is Canada Scripture right you at least this and then traditional Jews would say that that the Hebrew Bible Tanakh Old Testament that Scripture prayer for the saints cannot be supported in any of those books. That's the big thing then the other thing is if you go through a Jewish prayer book right you will not see anything that is the equivalent to say, praying to Mary that if you just go through this door and go online if in fact you know the websites for Rhea Kate silt go and effective amount of time SCF a RIA SEF a RI a Safar Rhea.org and look at the various options you have.

See door S IDD you are. That's the prayer book. Read through the prayers correct. What is the overall emphasis prayer and direction.

Bottom line, though saints not agree on this, my friends, check out all the resources and asked her to brown the Lord back with you on Monday
