We are continuing to dig into the word of God answering your toughest theological questions start for the line of fire with your host activist and author, international speaker and theologian Dr. Michael Burrell your voice of moral cultural and spiritual revolution Michael Brown was the director of the coalition of conscience and president of fire school of ministry get into the wider fire valves like always 866-34-TRUTH that's 866-34-TRUTH euro. Jim is Dr. Michael Brown friends welcome to broadcast this is Michael Brown listed the logic have specially recorded this broadcasted this just a few days back, right before my trip to India so right now as you're listening. I should be in India now for a few special days with your friends and coworkers there than heading back over the weekend, so yeah, about 40 hours of travel on either side and then the bell will come about 2 1/2 intense three days together we make them really really counts is pray for grace, strength, and as I reflected on on things that I know you appreciate shows that are valuable to you. But ask questions and it seems that when we can really dig deep into the Scriptures together then that's something that blesses you. So, on this Wednesday broadcast were digging deep into questions that I solicited just a few days back. These are all just posted recent Facebook and then I will move over to some Twitter questions as well. So you keep digging and looking at a number of questions that you posted back on Facebook now. Justin if you could a list of verses supporting the notion of penal substitution.

Thanks Justin.

First, I'd encourage you to get on YouTube and to search for monster God debate right or put in monster God and then the names on CAH and D and Brown writes O'Brien Zion and Michael Brown debating this issue is monster God or monster man I really cover the key verse is there, but conquered us to start reading in Isaiah 53 Isaiah 53 that chapter is the strongest chapter in the Bible on penal substitution that Jesus took our punishment that Jesus died for our sins and took our place.

That is the single most decisive passage in scripture for pastors on that passage creates difficulties as no difficulties straightforward. Jesus took our punishment, he died so that we could live all right lets him disclose one question per person. Sherry, what is pulsing first Corinthians, not the Lord but I say and what is that me also, would you be comfortable being a member of Reformed Church when you are a Calvinist right of using two separate questions there, Sherry. What Paul saying is I didn't get this, specifically from the teaching of Jesus. This is what I'm telling is an apostle.

This is my insight as an apostle, and I think I have the mind of the Lord and that's what he say so it it it's one thing if you say to me Mike, what did you hear from Leonard Ravenhill on the subject of civil Leonard Ravenhill said this, but let me tell you, I've got some thoughts on this as well that I think are valuable. All right that's in pulsing but is ready by inspiration sleeves writing a Scripture he's just distinguishing his words from what he would receive directly from the teaching of Jesus and the than the.

The traditions of the teaching of Jesus that were being passed down. Let's see. Samuel admittedly struggled greatly with the theological concept of Jesus being God in the trying Godhead as a whole. I do believe he was God in the flesh, and walk the earth. But I also believe that he was in fact forsaken when he took the sins of the world upon himself as God cannot or will not, depending on your belief in the matter be around sin.

I believe since the other those words of father why he forsaken me that he simply became Jesus our Messiah and Savior sits at the right hand of God had come and sit next to themselves to be wrong either way I just want to know the truth, honestly speaking, everything I read seems to reinforce my beliefs on this matter. Samuel, I appreciate what you say. I recognize your struggles but without question, the son is eternally God. And because we see the father is eternally God is distinct from the sun and the sun is eternally God is distinct from the spirit. We understand that the one God that we serve is father son and Spirit.

That's how we understand that no one has seen God at any time.

John one first John for first Timothy six and you Jesus. This is you seen me you seen the father that he's the very express image of God. That's why we understand that he can say before Abraham was, I am. That's why in Revelation 1, Revelation 22 that you have the father and the son both identifying as Alpha and Omega, beginning and the end.

This cannot be a created being. That's why Revelation 5 all created beings worship the were sits on the throne and the Lamb. That's why Revelation 22. There is one throne for God and the Lamb and his servants serve him, not their servants serve them and they see his face, not their faces because it's one God eternally right and yet the son is God's spirit is God the father Scott.

He was nine speaks mems the eternal spirit we noted spirit speaks and acts that we can grieve the spirit is not to state power, right, we baptize in the name of the father son and Holy Spirit. We have communion with the Holy Spirit, we receive the grace of the Lord Jesus, the love of God the father so father-son spirit.

That's how God is revealed to us in Scripture we say God can't be around since around sin all the time these is working in in the world rush his spirits working in our midst disease. The Holy Spirit dwells inside of us as believers, are you sin free of ice and free is around sin all the time.

He does not participate in sin.

So when Jesus speaks of being forsaken RBCs drawing our attention to Psalm 22, he's feeling at that moment, as if abandoned carrying the weight of the Cimarron shows but he continues to commune with his father and does not city and fall into your hands I commit my spirit. So he's always eternal son never ceases from being the eternal son see Shane quivers not with me is against me up is not gather with me scatters so I tell you any sin and blasphemy can be forgiven but possibly against the spirit will not be forgiven a check out my video on a stretcher Brown.org ask a DR Brown.org about last May the spirit. What exactly does that mean check that out right past me of the spirit and in short marks regresses little more information, a knowing and willing attributing of the works of the Holy Spirit to Satan, the hardness of heart of that degree crosses a certain line of Scott and Luke nine.

The disciples want to stop a man from casting out demons because he didn't quote follow us. If you respond to not forbidden for use not against us is on our side. In Matthew seven issue says that it will assist me Lord, Lord, shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of my father in heaven. Some citizens a contradiction, but I'm thinking the difference is a genuine boarding experience in relationship. What say you yet.

Scott and I take it to mean there is. There were people who were believers in who Jesus was and were driving out spirits in his name, but they weren't part of that group that was traveling with Jesus, it would be like saying. Well, then, upon the sons of God in their claiming this or that a priss maturing the clematis within a Lutheran or claiming that small group there at their house church there not a house church and Jesus is saying if they are truly in use by me right and truly doing miracles in my name, then Prescott on our side. Now, at the same time.

You cannot simply say willpower miracles have come to us that cruise right relationship with God uses no you have to do the will of my father have to do the that that is who's gonna get in and he does get into those who do the will of my father and those who note so I can understand you can see this a contradiction, but ultimately you could then read it is not a contradiction of Spencer why Eli was judge without restraint.

Inscriptions really clearly verbally address them, but the prophet Samuel was not his sons were corrupt. God seem to overlook it okay number one Eli did very little. In light of the evil that his sons were committing. He did very little. These high priest shut it down. They can't do the work. Simple is not acceptable or are you disciplining your sons a why you doing this it's wrong why you doing that you shouldn't be raping the women shouldn't be stealing. It's wrong. Don't do anything that's this meaningless. That's worthless right that's one thing here's here's the other thing Samuel doesn't say that he failed to deal with his sons the same way Eli failed to notice and say that in his lifetime. They were doing all the same things that you are sons were doing on that level. Nonetheless, it was a failing Stephanie failing so the Bible records that is egregious as the license but the Bible records may be.

Samuel was a better prophet than father. Something was wrong right too busy with ministry Israel so messed up. Everybody need Samuel with the kids, his own sons don't get Samuel.

These things happen. So the Bible records that that's that's a rebuke to Samuel and that it's recorded and yet he was a mighty man of God and many other areas. Eli obviously was weaker and failed in a more egregious way of Joanna second Timothy 116 through 18. Some commentators think that a nest for us was dead. At that time I say may the Lord grant them to find mercy from the Lord in that day was actually supporting prayer for that which you take on Dr. Brown others is no evidence that he was dead were one of the essays that we have we have no concrete evidence giving a date for his death. I and and Paul's post is not praying for the dead. This note again, you have to read so much into this.

I read that passage a thousand times and never once crossed my mind that Paul was praying for the dead, and it even if if if he was dead. All Paul would be saying is I hope you find mercy from the Lord on that day, but bottom line is no evidence for no evidence for and from what we could surmise in a nest for us was a younger man than Paul and Bentall did not die of old age. Rather, he was beheaded, according to what we know so logic would suggest that on this for us outlived Paul you have to read something into it now to create some kind of theological problem of let's just see our right to what I'm gonna switch over to Twitter similar but my Facebook question was. Next year we excuse me been answering the Facebook questions for the last 2 1/2 days, and I want to switch over and start answering your questions that were posted on Twitter so I can take your calls as this is one of those in the day times happens once a year, but that's why we especially come in in studio put some extra hours and to record the special broadcast for you and say hey you ask away and we are here to answer just another reminder mentioned this the other day where Israel trip will have about 20 seats left right so close about 80 of the hundred seats being filled. It's may mail be here before you know it to go to the website today asked Dr. Brown ask a DR Brown.org. You see, right on the homepage will never get sent off the hair on the line of fire with your host Dr. Michael Brown. Your voice is more cultural and spiritual revolution there again is Dr. Michael Brown. We are switching over to some on Twitter, as I'm in India right now.

We asked for some questions that I can dress an answer. Since I can't take your calls this week. Also, if there is major political news world news breaking. I will be commenting on just not during the broadcast. Because we especially recorded these shows to be a blessing to you while I'm in India so if there's major stuff happening and I feel bird to write about it or address it all be writing articles. As always, from India, often on the plane is loss of Wi-Fi access.

Writing on the plane posting things as well many articles you have read over the years have been written in flight books you have read major portions have been written in flight because I spent so much time flying. Also, sometimes I just get on Facebook a master to Brown page and do a video so will be in touch with you in a live way, but on the show this week were answering your logical questions are serious questions. Think your posting wondering about so over on Twitter and I solicited these questions about about a week ago, a Debbie yes this Dr. Brown and Psalm 42.

Five. Amplified translation.

The word help is Season capitalized its strongest each of number H344 Yeshua sounds like Yeshua, Jesus, are they actually saying Jesus in Hebrew so when Jews read these verses and he were they saying his name. Thank you, Debbie. This is a common misconception. One is a noun pronounced issue. The other is a name pronounced Yeshua. They are spelled differently one has a final hey a final H in terms of how it's written in in the Bible.

The vowels are different and Yeshua is short for Yehoshua which is Joshua all right your horseshoe then becomes Yeshua. It is a shorter form issue is the Hebrew word for salvation syllabus. Jesus though Yehoshua is short for basically Yahweh is salvation. And then it gets shortened into Yeshua right so they both come from the same root, Josh Shaw, but they are to distinct words one noun okay and one a proper name and with the difference in pronunciation with a clear and definite difference in pronunciation.

By the way what I was studying Arabic Three years of classical Arabic to in college and then want to dance class in grad school and you have in Hebrew. You have two different sounds with H ha right just and then, ha and ha. But in Arabic, which preserves the earlier submitted pronunciation you have ha ha and thought. See have a soft, and a hard, and then just the house out in English really have ha will to me, versus ha ha versus cut their leg interchangeably. Can't you can't distinguish between them. In my pronunciation between the two of them is gone we but if you're a native iron speaker there totally different sounds completely different sounds. So I was I was going through a text to difficult Arabic text with some Eric speakers try to figure so that I was reading a class assignment I was struggling with something in an error because of difficult. So I'm reading it through with them and they are all you mispronounce it like the third or cotton. Ha.

But to them it was so clear and distinct. So the issue salvation is a different sound than Yeshua right and a Jew saying that is not saying the name of Jesus and help should not be H all right, but common misconception so related roots related words but to distinct from words one noun in their proper noun, a name specifically okay let's see hey bro, this is you did. Yeah you did. Jedediah and English just taught on first John 419 growing up King James says we love him because he first loved us.

The newer version say we love because he first loved us. Kinda changes the implications of the verse.

Both points or implied in the latter part of the chapter would love your input. Okay, so if we go and look in the Greek first John right first John chapter 4 that you gotta load some of the software up. Also for our team that they can pull the Greek up and just go along to put on the screen for those who are watching soap, King James, we love him because he first loved us. New King James we love him because he first loved us. But CSB ESV NIV NET NLT CJB yeah this I have him so you have two of the Tyndale free samples as we love him, for he first loved us. He loved us first excuse. So the question would be, are you looking at two different Greek texts write so many times when you have a variation it's because there were two different Greek texts or different groups of manuscripts that were being looked at.

Okay.

And because of that, because different manuscripts were being looked at were being viewed because of that you have these minor variations now if the word him was not in the original Greek.

If the word him was not there then it would likely say we love him in the King James H I am would be italicized.

Okay, it's not italicized, which would say that that was in the you would suggest that that was in the grease if you didn't have Greek in front right that would suggest that it was in the that it was in the the Greek text that the King James translators had okay however however that being said, that being said, the overall meaning remains the same because the whole context is about loving God. The whole context is about where the soul starts but it's not only that it's also letting others that we love God and we love others.

How because he first loved us. That's real starts our capacity to love God and our capacity to love others is because he first loved us.

But overall overall. It's not just say his love in general is love. People love things love the nose love nature, love life, because he first elicits a specific God love that supernatural love for others of Stephanie first Timothy 58. Anyone does not provide for the relatives in this particular household is denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever is. It's interesting me a question from first John and now this because first John repeatedly says if you really love show show if you really love if you if you really love your neighbor show if you really love God, demonstrated by keeping his commandments loving your brother if you claim to love God and hate your brother walking in darkness right so there is something tangible that must be worked out our faith. So an unbeliever there unbeliever. There there and not claiming to walk with God and not walking with God. But if you say I'm a child of God unbeliever. I will follow Jesus and inlets, let's say your your mother is destitute.

She's a widow your fathers died. She's destitute. She's a godly woman. She loves the Lord.

She has no source of income on her own. She is unable to work. She's sick and you cannot summon us to care for her this, that's worse than being and I believe that this denying the faith that that is basically being a wood living walking hypocrite. It it does not mean that we have to provide for every relatively need a gutted distant fourth cousin on my father's second and third side whenever it cannot is not, that it's time of those that we have a responsibility for especially ancient world you had that immediate responsibility for for parents and for the immediate relatives but to this day is as I'm in India right now you very, very commonly see multiple generations, three generations in the same house very commonly see you got the got the mom and dad and their kids, but then also there, though, the widow of the that the father's mother still lives there were or the wife's father lives with them. The other elderly and the seller cared for is very common in that respect. Sailors fend for yourself that's it's been worse than unbeliever is being denied of the refacing claim to practice Garrett of giving notice the similarity between the last line of the Lord's prayer for yours is the kingdom and the power and glory forever and David spread first Chronicles 2911 because of this you think the Bible should include the last line of the Lord's prayer up yet so number number one. The earliest manuscripts do not have that line but that was a biblical phrase concept and something I was also prayed in in Judaism and Jewish tradition that was also an ancient prayer, so this really nothing wrong with praying those words. They are biblical words, absolutely. So that's how they got incorporated into other manuscripts that are biblical words and there's an obviously traditions that go way back to people praying those words and perhaps to the lips of Jesus himself so it's perfectly fine to pray those words will rarely know what I am into the Bible to good biblical prayer and a good biblical thing to say Santos wondering where in India a beat. We don't post this on our itinerary because we don't go to India to proselytize. We go there and meet with leaders. Pour into two leaders in and in those doing pioneer ministry and just to other works of that kind instruction and help so ministry is my business is that since it's a ministry business trip and we go there to to bless believers, but we been in Andhra Pradesh for 27 years. Suffice that to say are going to Andhra Pradesh for since 1993.

This is trip number 27, so thanks for praying for us and standing with us and it's our time just appointed friends there and participate in special Bible school graduation you say graduation in December. Yeah, that's what I come to go back to school for the few months but this is will we hold it lay hands on consistent. All right, this was hard for us to stay right here the line of fire with your host Dr. Michael Brown line of fire now by going to 866-34-TRUTH your exam is Dr. Michael Brown. I'M not able to take your calls because I am in India right now, but we specially solicited questions from you on Facebook and Twitter last week and said hey I'll answer as many as I can on the air but but I just want, random question is which are fine which are fine but I wanted theological questions, things you struggle with versus you struggle with. So that's what were tackling today, but could you just stop for one minute and just lift up a prayer for grace and strength on the strip.

I've been outside the United States ministering couple hundred times may be 100 7080 overseas trips so it's a lot of hours flying its tenant half hour time difference in India. Thankfully, there is grace on me to do this because of calling and obviously the experience of doing it and that healthy eating. It's a massive difference, but these still can be draining trips we want them to count, and I'm always working on other projects on writing books work on articles while they are while flying. So pray for grace and strength, and for the Lord's presence real visitation as were together with precious friends in India we go over to some of your twitter questions now this is less equal on Twitter not versus per se, but important in Jesus parables were those represented by servants and/or slaves will see it varies varies from parable a parable is not like in every parable that the same term has to be used in the same way so when you're talking about. For example, when Jesus is illustrating how the Jewish leadership has rebelled against him. Then sometime, servants and slaves can have a context they are related to Israel and in relating to Israel's rebellion against God against the Messiah, the other times, the servant slavers is a follower of Jesus as a disciple and we are going to be rewarded. You're the parable of the talents and things like that that that that's how it's can work itself out.

So each one has to be interpreted in context and you don't want to over interpret a parable. In other words, you don't want to draw a doctrine or an inference beyond what the parable is there to teach. So yes, the details of the parable have meaning and and nothing in the parable is superfluous. In other words, if you gave a parable you talked about a man who was wearing a a a blue suits and it had a giant nose and it was 10 feet tall and that wouldn't just be a description of a man there'd be okay why the blue and why the big nose and why the 10 feet tall so there is there significance.

But then sometimes we try to over interpret and we go beyond what would be the obvious meaning the obvious application so in each case, the servant could be different to be referring to someone else. You do not want to go to forward example going too far, is when Jesus talks about the faithful servant. The governor put in touch to the trust in and in charge of his household. The Jehovah's Witnesses say that's that that's the watchtower organization that's their their organization there. The faithful servant, Douglas is, obviously, not was talking about Jacob Estes not actually post an answer, but a minute answer it anyway, so I was speaking with an unbeliever about the gospel and he brought up Romans 132 and made the argument that Paul taught that homosexual should be put to death in a funk consistent with my interpretation of Scripture must also support death regains. I had no good reply so Romans the first chapter Paul says at the end of it, that the ungodly not only know that people commit such things deserve death, but that they celebrate these things right so read in the ESV though they know God's righteous decree that those who practice such things deserve to die that not only do them but give approval to those who practice them so that says that we then should sanction the death penalty for grace and on. Let's just read what comes immediately before actually got an IV call the peer art so furthermore furthermore, just as they did not think it worthwhile suits of the human race. Human beings who follow idols. As a result of which God gives them over from idolatry into what sexual morality and then sexual morality into what Sikkim perversion, then sexual perversion to what every kind of sin so furthermore, just as they they the human race did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, so God gave them over to a depraved mind that they do what ought not to be done. They have that human race they become filled with recoverable wickedness, evil, greed and depravity there full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, and malice. There gossips slanderous God haters insulin arrogant and boastful than blunt ways of doing evil they disobey their parents. They have no understanding, no fidelity, no love, no mercy, although they know God's righteous decree that those who do such things deserve death what things all those things. All those things and in others, not just on homosexual practice some idolatries on sexual morality so much sexual perversion.

He's talking about all these things slanderous God is. Insulin arrogant, boastful right no fidelity, no love. Murder stripes he met all these things, they practice all these things and God's righteous decree. Those who do those things deserve death not just homosexual practice, but all the rebellions and of the race is not saying a death penalty carried out by the government, but deserving death in God's sight that rather than repent they celebrate those things is not only speaking about sexual morality or homosexual acts that are no it's also speaking about all kinds of sexual morality speak out all kinds of idolatry and all kinds of rebellion against God and sometime in an earthly death sentence carried out by the courts but rather God's righteous decree of judgment, sinful human race was referring to their so that unbelievers more trouble than the real has. But, by which I mean hey we all sin we all fall short role guilty. He caught sight. And it's not saying that one of the homosexual relationship is gone down the progression of first idolatry than sexual morality that seated notes are saying that since how the human race got where the human race is. That's why this is just who we are. This is part of how we live by the city on the airmen challenge second Timothy 36 they're the kind who worm their way into homes gain control over gullible women were loaded down with sins and are swayed by all kinds of evil desires are. That's what that says. But it doesn't.

There's a link to go to so I don't know what the challenges of the answer, but Pastor Mark and posted for reason but I know more for me to go on a Chris what is the most reliable chronological Bible in your opinion, and no set of verses that ask about a specific person, something I'd like to know. Thanks. Now, to be perfectly honest with you I don't know that there are a lot of chronological Bibles, but if I just click on Amazon though to click on Christian book.com mission book.com and type in chronological Bible and let's see what comes up. Yeah II think it's the same chronological study Bible in multiple different translations. There was, I don't think that there are a lot of different ones. One year chronological Bible chronological study Bible that it only seemed to be a few different ones and then see if you have you version on on on your cell phone or tablet is an app that will give you chronological Bibles, which is the most accurate. Honestly, I don't know because only a few I haven't gone through each one in detail, but there's always speculation always speculation like you don't know where to put a resolve, chronological, some tell you where but others you don't know where to put them chronological or of Paul's letters. There is debate about the exact order in this general agreement on earlier later. But there is debate about we put Galatians. For example, there is debate about some others so you cannot you have it, or go through the Gospels chronologically. You have some level of debate about where that falls out how how this goes. This goes there now and a lot of it's pretty straightforward right or just okay you go to the Exodus go through. It's pretty straightforward here we straightforward their Genesys accountant and things like that. Jeremiah did a Comintern Jeremiah as many of you know, and the first 20 chapters, there's the superscription which states the general timeframe things and then in Jeremiah 3.

There is a reference to the days of Josiah July 15, there is talking about back what happened days of Manasseh, but this they went with the prophecies coming. I was the first 20 chapters is that a specific date given to any prophecy were Jeremiah spoke these words at this time the starting in 21 you have to, but where you put those exactly that's it's challenging, so this can be some level of speculation right and nobody nobody from this vantage point can put the Bible in perfect Chronicle chronological order.

We do our best to do it. Not that being said, it's great to read it like that just experientially so you're maybe reading it into over little bit differently or just the segments are coming about differently or look, we know that that some of the early collections of Scripture there for the New Testament.

For example, they were in a different order than we have today or for example that you that you have in the Old Testament.

If you bring the Hebrew Bible to turn off see a different order not of all of it. They know that the five books of Moses R. That's the same within the section called the prophets that is Joshua Judges 1st and second Samuel, first and second Kings right and then after that Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel 12 by the prophets of the earlier prophets.

A lot of prophets mean that those with historical books were themselves prophets. In the last sections called writings. This get everything else that's good Job, Psalms, Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, song of Solomon discomfort.

Second Chronicles that Scott, Esther, Scott, Ruth, Scott, Daniel, sows grouped differently and it ends with second Chronicles was ours and's with Malachi. So sometimes it's good just to read things in a different order and because just get in the same habit. Even the letters of Paul and I grew chronologically there grew pretty much bite by length right that that's out, that's others are listed together to think the Romans comes first will not chronological, so it's good to to read like that I consider apps snow chronological Bobby can read the same way, but I only things are a few that have been done like this. Okay, we've got time for one more set of questions I may go back to Facebook-based and Twitter will see but again not take your calls because we are in India as you are. Let's see if you're listening to this live are watching live. It's good probably sleeping I probably sleeping get ready for a busy day of ministry.

All right, friends, be blessed, and one more reminder because I often forget to mention this to you forgot about 20 seats left for Israel trip trip of a lifetime maze an extraordinary time to go so get online right now S Dr. Brown.org and check it out and fight right on the homepage or annual well this be the first time are going to consecutive years to assess how much is the line of fire with your host Dr. Michael Brown voice of moral cultural and spiritual revolution. Here again is Dr. Michael Brown to go back to some questions that we solicited on Twitter while I am here in India saluted solicited these last week, but before that, I will look at a question was posted at the end of our Friday show day after Thanksgiving, so this past Friday, a question that was posted on Facebook.

I don't believe will put on screams you right now but one address that and they go back to some your twitter questions.

All right, Bernadette. I have a sincere question. You recently explain why the as it is in heaven, so on earth.

And being taught in charismatic circles is heresy making that opposes the sound doctrine of one or more, you have not worn the body of those who were teaching this will stocking recently did so concerning Rick Wells concerning a statement of the Jew to which I agree with you on many friends you truly believe and try to bring heaven to earth before Jesus can return because of your influence. Many would be delivered from this false doctrine. If you shared it was preaching and I hope you consider what I'm sharing truly God blessed art. Bernadette, thank you so much for asking that but I did not say that teaching is earth is on earth as it is in heaven with some charismatics do is heresy never said that never said that right. Someone made a video taken some of my teaching and saying I was publicly rebuking Bill Johnson is not accurate. The difference of interpretation with the brother on a non-foundational issue and many of my conclusions are similar so bulimics might.

There is a charismatic teaching that says that we pray the Lord's prayer right and we say your your kingdom come, will be done on earth as it is in heaven. So the teaching is. May your will be done on earth as it is in heaven. So the way things are in heaven, may they be like that on earth and heaven there is peace where there be peace on earth and heaven there is no sickness there be healing. Then, on earth right it's not to say that everyone will be healed and that everything will be perfect before Jesus returns. I don't believe that that's what's called post-millennialism Jonathan Edwards held to that Charles Finney held to that that the to the preaching of the gospel of the world become Christianized to be a glorious reign of God over the earth with with the masses of human beings being saved in God's glorious kingdom on their this not heretical auto accept that scripturally.

But that's been held to by Christian leaders concentric all charismatics are doing is just saying how do we know the will of God's will look in heaven is their depression and have a note will. Let's pray against depression on the earth is their fear, anxiety, and have no let's take out promises that will prefer anxiety on the earth is this sickness in heaven.

So then there should be sickness among us is pray for healing. That's what they're doing there not saying that will see it perfectly art out just right differ. I don't accept that is what the verse means I understand it to mean that just as your will is carried out perfectly in heaven may be carried on earth were praying for this until Jesus returns. Okay were praying for God's kingdom to come. But for an ongoing manifestation of that until Jesus returns in first world to be done carried out perfectly on earth same weight is in heaven. So weight is in heaven with God says is carried out perfectly. May that be the same on earth as well. So now I look to understand what is God's will and I believe that God's ideal willful disobedience children is healing and health is 100% of the time we don't experience that in this world I believe is ideal will for his children is no fear, no depression or anxiety. So both the same way you will is carried out in heaven may be carried as your Lord, so may we see as we preach as we teach as we minister is we give the word that we believe it that we received that we act on it that we obey it, you will be done on earth as this inhabits up some of my conclusions are the same regarding divine healing and things like that right of, but the way that we get to that I differ. For example, there is no death in heaven, so that mean there should be no death on earth that everyone should be raised from the dead, obviously, is not the case. All right there. No sexual relations and having them in the division of sexual relations and earth that a husband and wife get married but never have children. This all having babies physical babies in heaven. Solution a babysitter so obviously it's it's not what it means. The weight is in heaven. Everything should be the same here on earth the way God's will is carried out heaven perfectly and fully may be carried here. That's our prayer and we keep working towards that. Until we see Jesus face to face those who think that they can bring the full manifestation of heaven on earth before Jesus returns again to make it happen that's wrong doctrine, but I'm not normally hearing that taught from those who pray the prayer that will is for Rick Wiles saying that the Jews are to take over American co-Christians, you better believe on a call that out loudly and clearly I call and repent and warn him about putting for such ugly and potentially dangerous words, people might just get inside unstable followers get inside. Think I'll take the Simone hands.

God forbid people do that but thank you for the question. Bernadette all right back over to twitter okay you know what happened. I have to go back to where I was and and find once again were I posted the request for twitter questions which is actually November 25 so that was last week.

I can get in there. I'm getting there.

I'm getting closer on November 26 and now November 20 there we go Chi okay you got it for us Davis? Matthew 715 through 23 I actually answered on the YouTube chat so my Korea answer that but Dylan God's working in the nations now all I know is what you said there so I I don't know everything you meant by but on the one hand through history. Goddess had a heart for the whole world. She chose Abrams to the through his seed the whole world would be blessed. Israel's mission was never just for Israel alone, the servant of the Lord.

Isaiah 49 and Isaiah 42. It is mission is not just for Israel but for the nations and we see in the Psalms precluded the call to proclaim God's name among the nations of God's heart has always speak for the nations but there was a period of time when his primary working was within the nation of Israel. It was their role to proclaim and to the ends of the earth right so again I'm not sure if this exactly what you're asking, but try to give a biblically-based answer to God's work in the nations so his heart was always to bless the nations because the apostasy in the world the darkness of the world, people turning away from the knowledge of God. God needed to find a way to teach and and bring his knowledge back to themselves through a permanent seat you might have an isolated person in the nation. Here they are, or roots. The joints with the people of Israel becomes a worshiper of God or Rahab does.

But otherwise, the nations were walking in darkness and separated from the covenant promises right so now through Jesus the Messiah coming into the world, shedding his blood to die for the sins of the world and sending his Jewish emissaries as apostles out to bring the good news. Now there is a more active working of God among nations, and then spreads spreads until the people of the nations become dominant.

The Jewish believers become the small minority.

Even the Jewish nation on the earth. A small minority compared to the hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of millions of Gentiles who say and what God is doing in the nations is increasing as much as Europe has been spiritual decline in many ways America and spiritual decline. God's doing. For example, Latin America is amazing with great outpouring in many millions coming to genuine faith with God's doing in the continent of Africa is extraordinary. God's doing in Asian countries like China and in India is extraordinary what God's doing and in the Middle Eastern countries like Iran is extraordinary. So God is moving mightily in the nations we are getting closer and closer. What Paul writes about Romans 1125 the fullness of the Gentiles coming in the fullness of the nations. May we see it in our day. On the heels of that, Israel's salvation all right.

Let's see any other sky that you have that we didn't get to on Twitter. We've only got about two minutes and change yeah okay so looks like those of the the twitter questions where a bunch on Facebook. I won't be able to get to, but let me just encourage you with this. I'm inserting the word blessed 48 years, sometimes with real intensity on a certain subject or certain word. Sometimes a particular book.

My doctoral dissertation focused on the Hebrew rough and and then I wrote dictionary articles on on other Hebrew words for a number of other major theological dictionaries that I've written, focused articles on areas and with messianic prophecy or study Scripture and depth of messianic prophecy or similar commentaries on on Job and Jeremiah and commissioned white run right when Isaiah for a new series can come out and and so you do that focus study in the book or maybe teaching a certain subject repentance or holiness or grace see digging out deeper and focus on a particular subject. There's so many different ways to read the word and to study the word and to learn from God. I would just encourage you to always major on the majors first always major on the majors first it. In other words, don't spend all your time, figure out the details of an obscure prophecy in the book of Zechariah of extremity very difficult understand the imagery were trying to work out every chronological detail of the book of Revelation and in your you're not reading practical stuff about loving God and love your neighbor, your you're not doing practical things like reaching out and sharing the gospel with others who do not deepening your prayer life. You're not you, not studying the word in a way that's more holistic so that your life is being built up in strength and that you in turn can go be a blessing in the help and strength to others.

So just encourage you to get lost in the tangential things.

The side issues study did again go for, but always swim in the mainstream as well just be reading through the Bible regularly living God speaks you and I do that intensive study focus study on areas of interest do that also never stopped his reading through the Bible and growing by being enriched by a friends again.
