00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:45,080 You know, it just does from like when we were growing up. 102 00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:49,040 Take it like, oh, yeah, school early 2000s. 103 00:05:49,040 --> 00:05:51,760

just for the words, it's still going like a Christian rap one. 119 00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:36,480 I don't think I have a particular favorite genre of music, but I do. 120 00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:40,080 It's Christian rap really is. 121 00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:44,240 I mean, NF NF is like a Christian artist. 122 00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:47,120 You listen to his stuff and it's just like it's straight fire. 123 00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:48,920 And you're like, wow, he is. 124 00:06:48,920 --> 00:06:53,320 I was listening to him on the way over to record on radio. 125 00:06:53,320 --> 00:06:58,320

00:07:17,320 But it's really cool to see like it. 134 00:07:17,320 --> 00:07:24,720 Yeah, it just comes down to like Christian music has progressed to be very high quality, 135 00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:27,560 more mainstream, more well known. 136 00:07:27,560 --> 00:07:31,840 Like if you say Lecrae, if someone listens to rap, they're like, oh, I know a couple 137 00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:32,840 of stuff. 138 00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:38,080 I like NF 21 Pilots like that that are Christian based. 139 00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:40,120 And it's like, oh, well, right. 140 00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:45,280 Who's seeing lyrics that not necessarily have to be worship or not necessarily have to be 141 00:07:45,280 --> 00:07:50,440 founded around the Bible, but have positive lyrics and like story and stuff like that. 142 00:07:50,440 --> 00:07:51,800 That's not bringing customers. 143 00:07:51,800 --> 00:07:57,780 That's not bringing sex, drugs and whatever into the music, especially with like you got 144 00:07:57,780 --> 00:08:03,160 songs out there by like Cardi B and other songs like that where people are like, especially 145 00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:05,760 I'm sure you see our youth listen to it all the time. 146 00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:09,680 You're just like, oh, yeah, you know, WAP. 147 00:08:09,680 --> 00:08:10,680 I love that song. 148 00:08:10,680 --> 00:08:11,680 It's such a catchy beat. 149 00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:14,160 And it's just like, I can't stand that stuff. 150 00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:15,240 I can't stand this stuff. 151 00:08:15,240 --> 00:08:16,240 It makes me cringe. 152 00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:21,720 And I don't know that this is me being said like, you know, like some of this like, like 153 00:08:21,720 --> 00:08:22,720 the beats and stuff. 154 00:08:22,720 --> 00:08:23,720 Yeah, they sound it's catchy. 155 00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:28,000 But like, it's like, if it's not, I don't know. 156 00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:32,160 I don't care for all those artists because it's like, I'm like, it's just it's me. 157 00:08:32,160 --> 00:08:33,160 Like, I don't know. 158 00:08:33,160 --> 00:08:36,240 For me, I'm like, it's just garbage. 159 00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:41,040 Like because the lyrics I don't want to hear about. 160 00:08:41,040 --> 00:08:48,120 Well, when you listen to music, like you're kind of in a calmer state. 161 00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:52,080 Usually it's just like I need to unwind or it's metal. 162 00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:57,080 And it's, you know, it's like 110 on the freeway all the way. 163 00:08:57,080 --> 00:08:58,080 It's you. 164 00:08:58,080 --> 00:09:06,200 So it's like with music, you're kind of like the idea is that it's one way that media influences 165 00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:13,240 people more than they think is because music is such an emotional connection and connecting 166 00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:19,920 that to just consistent like stuff of the world is is going to make you think more along 167 00:09:19,920 --> 00:09:22,800 the lines of the world and that kind of mentality. 168 00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:28,280 So with our playlist that we've creating and we'll add more obviously over time, like rock 169 00:09:28,280 --> 00:09:30,920 and worship and whatever. 170 00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:40,560 But as as there's music out there, we're dedicating time to create playlists that are high end, 171 00:09:40,560 --> 00:09:48,160 high quality, like triple A quality stuff that is Christian based people or artists 172 00:09:48,160 --> 00:09:53,480 that are bringing a positive, less worldly feel to a lot of their stuff. 173 00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:58,400 And these guys like there was on the EDM, there's an artist called Louis Brazil. 174 00:09:58,400 --> 00:10:01,040 I don't know if you ever heard of him. 175 00:10:01,040 --> 00:10:04,640 His music is so yes, I have. 176 00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:05,640 Yeah. 177 00:10:05,640 --> 00:10:08,360 His music is super like rave culture kind of feel to it. 178 00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:10,420 And it's so much fun. 179 00:10:10,420 --> 00:10:14,680 And he's had concerts with like 30, 40,000 people. 180 00:10:14,680 --> 00:10:16,500 And like he's just done that. 181 00:10:16,500 --> 00:10:17,800 And people like this is awesome. 182 00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:22,640 And his work, his music is like there's a lot of songs that he did that are like Yahweh 183 00:10:22,640 --> 00:10:26,360 and Adonai and like he's really cool lyrics to it. 184 00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:30,440 But people who don't know, they're just like, cool. 185 00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:39,900 So yeah, it's it's it's really cool to see that there's a lot of Christian artists progressing. 186 00:10:39,900 --> 00:10:40,900 I'm on that playlist. 187 00:10:40,900 --> 00:10:51,360 I'll just say, yeah, like you guys, Jason is a makes EDM music on a sonic. 188 00:10:51,360 --> 00:10:55,080 I've been there watching do it. 189 00:10:55,080 --> 00:10:56,800 Upped out a little bit. 190 00:10:56,800 --> 00:11:04,040 So like he he has he's like, I don't know, I'm going to say music genius. 191 00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:05,960 I don't know. 192 00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:07,680 Music producer, I just producer. 193 00:11:07,680 --> 00:11:08,680 Yeah. 194 00:11:08,680 --> 00:11:11,480 Like the guy plays like 30 something instruments. 195 00:11:11,480 --> 00:11:16,560 He knows music like listen to it. 196 00:11:16,560 --> 00:11:20,880 These playlists like we really just want to make it fun and we want to make it. 197 00:11:20,880 --> 00:11:27,080 So he said there's a good music to listen to that is clean and is going to be uplifting. 198 00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:31,240 And you know, sometimes I feel like you can get in moods when you listen to music like 199 00:11:31,240 --> 00:11:38,240 if you listen to music, that's you know, not it's going to be not glorified edifying and 200 00:11:38,240 --> 00:11:41,880 sometimes going to be more, you know, this world, it can take you down. 201 00:11:41,880 --> 00:11:42,880 Right. 202 00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:45,440 The NF has some really depressing songs. 203 00:11:45,440 --> 00:11:51,480 And there's times where, you know, like I'm sad, we listen to some NF, but it's still, 204 00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:57,000 you know, it has a biblical basis, which I think is important because if you're grounded 205 00:11:57,000 --> 00:12:00,880 and rooted in that, it'll help you those times. 206 00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:05,160 If you're not a believer or something always different about the Christian music and not 207 00:12:05,160 --> 00:12:12,760 that it's quality, but not always, not always there is a lyric and you know, the things 208 00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:13,760 behind it. 209 00:12:13,760 --> 00:12:20,960 You know, in a sense, those who are those people who are making music, you're kind of 210 00:12:20,960 --> 00:12:25,560 hell, I think they should be held accountable a little bit like those who are, I'd say, 211 00:12:25,560 --> 00:12:31,720 maybe teachers and leaders in the worship in with music, you know, that's what we're 212 00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:36,280 going to talk about today is teaching and leadership and preaching and teaching with 213 00:12:36,280 --> 00:12:40,920 your words, which ties in with the music, I think a little bit because there's worship 214 00:12:40,920 --> 00:12:44,320 leaders, worship pastors. 215 00:12:44,320 --> 00:12:50,880 And I mean, this is your episode, Sasha, that you go ahead and kick it off now. 216 00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:51,880 Yeah. 217 00:12:51,880 --> 00:12:52,880 Well, here's the thing. 218 00:12:52,880 --> 00:12:58,140 So like over the last couple of weeks, we talked about humility, we talked about serving. 219 00:12:58,140 --> 00:13:03,040 And now in this instance, I was talking to somebody on a Facebook group that I talked 220 00:13:03,040 --> 00:13:04,040 to. 221 00:13:04,040 --> 00:13:06,800 It's like apologetics Facebook group. 222 00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:12,800 And the apologetics Facebook group was talking about someone asked a question about like, 223 00:13:12,800 --> 00:13:18,600 should it says to go out and preach the word, but then it says not everybody should be teachers. 224 00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:20,800 Why is this a thing? 225 00:13:20,800 --> 00:13:23,720 Should we or should we not talk about the Bible? 226 00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:26,160 How do we know if we're okay to, etc. 227 00:13:26,160 --> 00:13:29,320 That kind of ideology and they were asking those questions. 228 00:13:29,320 --> 00:13:31,080 Like, I'm new to this. 229 00:13:31,080 --> 00:13:33,280 Like, please explain. 230 00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:38,680 And I texted Dylan shortly after I saw that I'm like, do we need to talk about teaching 231 00:13:38,680 --> 00:13:46,080 and preaching because there is a difference between teaching and preaching and everyone's 232 00:13:46,080 --> 00:13:48,640 called the one and some are called the other. 233 00:13:48,640 --> 00:13:49,960 Yes, exactly. 234 00:13:49,960 --> 00:13:57,920 I think everybody, everybody, your faith, you are your you should be sharing it. 235 00:13:57,920 --> 00:13:59,960 Mm hmm. 236 00:13:59,960 --> 00:14:03,720 And yeah, I'm excited for this one. 237 00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:06,160 As yeah, as a pastor. 238 00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:09,480 No, yeah, for you. 239 00:14:09,480 --> 00:14:12,680 It should scare you a little bit. 240 00:14:12,680 --> 00:14:13,680 Oh gosh. 241 00:14:13,680 --> 00:14:14,800 No, are you kidding me? 242 00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:19,120 As a kid, I mean, I always be like, hey, I'm going to be a pastor someday. 243 00:14:19,120 --> 00:14:20,600 I'm going to be a youth pastor. 244 00:14:20,600 --> 00:14:22,400 I'm called to do it. 245 00:14:22,400 --> 00:14:24,560 And people were like, OK, we'll be praying for that. 246 00:14:24,560 --> 00:14:29,520 And people I've had, you know, prophesied for me like, yeah, you're going to teach, 247 00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:31,320 you're going to be a teacher. 248 00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:34,880 You're going to teach the youth. 249 00:14:34,880 --> 00:14:38,120 And yeah, I was going like, oh man, I don't know. 250 00:14:38,120 --> 00:14:40,360 That was like at 12 years old. 251 00:14:40,360 --> 00:14:41,360 I wanted it. 252 00:14:41,360 --> 00:14:43,840 And I remember people going like, you know, in high school, they're like, what's your 253 00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:44,840 game plan? 254 00:14:44,840 --> 00:14:45,840 What are you going to do? 255 00:14:45,840 --> 00:14:46,840 In the future? 256 00:14:46,840 --> 00:14:47,840 I'm like, I'm going to be a pastor. 257 00:14:47,840 --> 00:14:50,000 And then you need an actual game plan. 258 00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:52,920 I'm like, that is my game plan. 259 00:14:52,920 --> 00:14:53,920 Yep. 260 00:14:53,920 --> 00:14:58,480 And then, you know, I started doing that at 21. 261 00:14:58,480 --> 00:14:59,480 Yep. 262 00:14:59,480 --> 00:15:02,480 So that's all. 263 00:15:02,480 --> 00:15:05,480 I remember for a while. 264 00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:06,480 Yeah. 265 00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:10,400 I remember we went to I don't know if you went with us to there was a conference called 266 00:15:10,400 --> 00:15:11,400 Acquire the Fire. 267 00:15:11,400 --> 00:15:13,480 I don't know if you remember that fire. 268 00:15:13,480 --> 00:15:16,000 What was this like 10 years ago? 269 00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:17,560 It was a while. 270 00:15:17,560 --> 00:15:25,280 I remember when we went there, they broke us up in the small groups based on like, like 271 00:15:25,280 --> 00:15:26,280 seating area, whatever. 272 00:15:26,280 --> 00:15:27,880 It was a big thing. 273 00:15:27,880 --> 00:15:30,720 And when we got to the small groups, it was probably like 80 of us. 274 00:15:30,720 --> 00:15:35,440 They had so many rooms to that church and they're like 80 people, 80 to 100 people per 275 00:15:35,440 --> 00:15:36,440 small group. 276 00:15:36,440 --> 00:15:38,280 And it was really cool. 277 00:15:38,280 --> 00:15:45,400 And I remember the after we did our thing and everything, the leader at the time that 278 00:15:45,400 --> 00:15:52,400 was teaching came up to me and was like, hey, I wanted to share with you that I feel like 279 00:15:52,400 --> 00:15:56,240 on your family, like didn't know me, obviously, we're way out of town. 280 00:15:56,240 --> 00:15:59,960 Like I don't know if this is true or not, but I feel like you come from a family of 281 00:15:59,960 --> 00:16:01,900 pastors. 282 00:16:01,900 --> 00:16:06,600 And I feel like that's something that you you might fall into place down the road. 283 00:16:06,600 --> 00:16:11,040 And God has a calling for you there, whether that be a lead a church, multiple churches 284 00:16:11,040 --> 00:16:12,080 or established churches. 285 00:16:12,080 --> 00:16:15,600 I don't know, but I feel like that's a calling on your life. 286 00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:22,320 And without even knowing me, like my dad, my dad's dad, my uncle's, my grandparents, 287 00:16:22,320 --> 00:16:25,920 like everybody, all pastors. 288 00:16:25,920 --> 00:16:30,980 And it was just kind of cool to be able to see that kind of person come up and like, 289 00:16:30,980 --> 00:16:34,960 I don't know who the frick you are or what's your background. 290 00:16:34,960 --> 00:16:39,840 But to be fair, though, to tell you to be fair, there was a sign on his back that said 291 00:16:39,840 --> 00:16:43,600 pastors kid says BK. 292 00:16:43,600 --> 00:16:45,040 So they just automatically knew. 293 00:16:45,040 --> 00:16:46,340 No, that's like a spirit. 294 00:16:46,340 --> 00:16:47,340 It's a spiritual sign. 295 00:16:47,340 --> 00:16:50,340 This is a sign. 296 00:16:50,340 --> 00:16:54,200 P.K. I just assume that kid volunteer him. 297 00:16:54,200 --> 00:17:01,040 That's another thing is that, you know, I are being told to like at eight of 12 and 298 00:17:01,040 --> 00:17:02,040 13. 299 00:17:02,040 --> 00:17:08,000 So like, if you go down this route, you're going to be judged. 300 00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:11,000 Yeah. 301 00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:12,880 I'm like, oh, that that's terrifying. 302 00:17:12,880 --> 00:17:14,800 Oh, it is scary. 303 00:17:14,800 --> 00:17:19,000 In a sense, like it's one thing to be like, yes, I believe I know where I'm going. 304 00:17:19,000 --> 00:17:21,880 I'm like, I'm solidified in that. 305 00:17:21,880 --> 00:17:22,880 I know I know Christ. 306 00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:24,880 I'm an expert, except I didn't forgive him. 307 00:17:24,880 --> 00:17:25,880 He forgiven me. 308 00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:26,880 Yeah. 309 00:17:26,880 --> 00:17:27,880 Him did nothing. 310 00:17:27,880 --> 00:17:32,640 I think they do any wrong. 311 00:17:32,640 --> 00:17:35,920 But like, I think of that and I'm going like that was always like terrifying. 312 00:17:35,920 --> 00:17:45,000 I'm called to this and like I lead somebody astray and teach like falsely incorrectly. 313 00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:47,000 I'm accountable for that. 314 00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:48,000 Mm hmm. 315 00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:52,800 I think I'm like, OK, all these youth kids and they needed no and be equipped. 316 00:17:52,800 --> 00:17:59,160 I've been with people that each and I think they're just like, I'll just teach them. 317 00:17:59,160 --> 00:18:06,600 Like, but they don't I don't think they fully understand the calling. 318 00:18:06,600 --> 00:18:10,160 The sense you see some of it is like, oh, yeah, man, we are out of the Bible. 319 00:18:10,160 --> 00:18:11,160 It's not a big deal. 320 00:18:11,160 --> 00:18:13,240 I'm like, yeah, but you need to have relationships with these kids. 321 00:18:13,240 --> 00:18:18,480 You need to mold them in a sense and lead them to Christ. 322 00:18:18,480 --> 00:18:24,280 Like, it's super important to do that. 323 00:18:24,280 --> 00:18:30,160 You know, I have like to think I have a good relationship with the youth at the church. 324 00:18:30,160 --> 00:18:32,360 Like I've got someone, you know, they'll text me. 325 00:18:32,360 --> 00:18:33,360 They're having a bad day. 326 00:18:33,360 --> 00:18:35,240 They'll call me. 327 00:18:35,240 --> 00:18:37,200 And I'm like, that's what it should be like. 328 00:18:37,200 --> 00:18:44,080 It should be like almost like you're a big brother, like, you know, cooler, older uncle. 329 00:18:44,080 --> 00:18:45,080 I don't know. 330 00:18:45,080 --> 00:18:46,080 I don't know. 331 00:18:46,080 --> 00:18:47,080 You know what I mean? 332 00:18:47,080 --> 00:18:48,080 Like our cousin. 333 00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:55,320 So I've had people call me up at like three at the night and be like, hey, I'm suicidal. 334 00:18:55,320 --> 00:18:58,920 I'm you know, I don't know if I can do this anymore. 335 00:18:58,920 --> 00:19:04,600 And it's like, dang, like, and that's things like you have to be ready to lead and teach 336 00:19:04,600 --> 00:19:06,280 like in those moments. 337 00:19:06,280 --> 00:19:09,600 And I think there's a lot more than people realize. 338 00:19:09,600 --> 00:19:11,320 I go with just pastoring. 339 00:19:11,320 --> 00:19:15,000 Like you have your flock in a sense. 340 00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:16,000 Right. 341 00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:17,000 Yeah. 342 00:19:17,000 --> 00:19:20,920 It's no, that's that's very true. 343 00:19:20,920 --> 00:19:26,160 You'll run into situations where you're going to have to be a little bit more than just 344 00:19:26,160 --> 00:19:27,160 I. 345 00:19:27,160 --> 00:19:33,360 So this is this is where there's a difference between preaching and teaching. 346 00:19:33,360 --> 00:19:35,760 So that that's the important part. 347 00:19:35,760 --> 00:19:46,080 And you're distinguishing that very clearly is that with with teaching, teaching is is 348 00:19:46,080 --> 00:19:47,680 instruction. 349 00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:53,520 It's more of a what's it called? 350 00:19:53,520 --> 00:19:57,080 I forgot what the word is for it. 351 00:19:57,080 --> 00:20:00,160 It's a good one. 352 00:20:00,160 --> 00:20:02,120 Whatever it is, it's a good word. 353 00:20:02,120 --> 00:20:03,120 Dialogical. 354 00:20:03,120 --> 00:20:04,120 Yeah, dialogical. 355 00:20:04,120 --> 00:20:05,120 Yeah. 356 00:20:05,120 --> 00:20:11,560 So teaching is more dialogical and it's about, you know, aims to inform and equip. 357 00:20:11,560 --> 00:20:17,120 So you're you're looking to give them the tools they need to succeed and to move forward 358 00:20:17,120 --> 00:20:20,920 with learning and growing their walk with God. 359 00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:25,920 And then on the preaching side, preaching is more monological, monological in the sense 360 00:20:25,920 --> 00:20:33,600 that you are it's a proclamation and your your goal is to invite and exhort. 361 00:20:33,600 --> 00:20:37,720 So that's the difference when you come down to either or. 362 00:20:37,720 --> 00:20:42,640 So it's really important to understand that there's different roles as teachers and there's 363 00:20:42,640 --> 00:20:44,920 a different role as preaching. 364 00:20:44,920 --> 00:20:50,540 I wouldn't say preachers because in this sense, you'll see, we'll bring up verses about this, 365 00:20:50,540 --> 00:20:59,040 but we are all called to preach in a monological sense to to share, to invite people to read 366 00:20:59,040 --> 00:21:00,040 and grow with. 367 00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:02,580 You're like, hey, Bible says this. 368 00:21:02,580 --> 00:21:03,580 Have you read this? 369 00:21:03,580 --> 00:21:04,580 Oh, OK. 370 00:21:04,580 --> 00:21:05,580 So now we're sharing. 371 00:21:05,580 --> 00:21:06,580 This is preaching. 372 00:21:06,580 --> 00:21:11,040 We're talking and be like, this is this is this is what the Bible says. 373 00:21:11,040 --> 00:21:13,200 That is just saying this is what the monologue is. 374 00:21:13,200 --> 00:21:14,920 This is what this is. 375 00:21:14,920 --> 00:21:18,640 And it invites you to read yourself and to study yourself. 376 00:21:18,640 --> 00:21:21,560 That is what we're called to do as a whole. 377 00:21:21,560 --> 00:21:29,320 Teaching on the other hand is very more personal, like, hey, I'm living a life of of following 378 00:21:29,320 --> 00:21:30,400 Christ. 379 00:21:30,400 --> 00:21:35,680 I'm not living in sin, which there's a difference between sinning and living in sin. 380 00:21:35,680 --> 00:21:36,980 Living happens. 381 00:21:36,980 --> 00:21:42,700 Living in sin is a choice to choose against God consistency. 382 00:21:42,700 --> 00:21:48,280 So when you're teaching, it's a whole different aspect of like anything that I am doing. 383 00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:55,120 It's not a consistent living in sin or a consistent choice against God for what I'm doing. 384 00:21:55,120 --> 00:22:00,880 And I'm showing you how to be equipped and learn how to equip yourself and get to that 385 00:22:00,880 --> 00:22:04,280 point to where you're growing in Christ. 386 00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:08,680 But you're doing it in the sense of like, I'm showing you how and this is how I do it. 387 00:22:08,680 --> 00:22:11,760 And this is how the Bible and God helps me through this. 388 00:22:11,760 --> 00:22:18,480 And this is what I'm trying to show you how to do you be a part of that kingdom of God. 389 00:22:18,480 --> 00:22:20,680 So that's kind of like the teaching difference. 390 00:22:20,680 --> 00:22:25,760 But yeah, that's a very good. 391 00:22:25,760 --> 00:22:28,820 I think it makes it very clear. 392 00:22:28,820 --> 00:22:33,100 So yeah, so I got verses on both sides, teaching and preaching. 393 00:22:33,100 --> 00:22:35,600 So what I would like to do for this episode is break it up. 394 00:22:35,600 --> 00:22:40,400 So like the first half, let's like for the first, I don't know, like for the next 20 395 00:22:40,400 --> 00:22:44,020 minutes, we're going to talk about teaching side and then we'll break it off and then 396 00:22:44,020 --> 00:22:46,160 switch over to the last half of the episode. 397 00:22:46,160 --> 00:22:49,160 We're going to switch it over to the preaching side. 398 00:22:49,160 --> 00:22:52,640 Hopefully that that I think that works. 399 00:22:52,640 --> 00:22:53,640 We'll see. 400 00:22:53,640 --> 00:22:56,640 I think that's a good idea. 401 00:22:56,640 --> 00:22:57,640 So guess what? 402 00:22:57,640 --> 00:22:59,360 What chapter I'm going to start in? 403 00:22:59,360 --> 00:23:00,360 Huh? 404 00:23:00,360 --> 00:23:03,400 What book am I going to start in? 405 00:23:03,400 --> 00:23:04,400 Blasheens. 406 00:23:04,400 --> 00:23:06,400 No, no, come on. 407 00:23:06,400 --> 00:23:07,400 You got to. 408 00:23:07,400 --> 00:23:08,400 James. 409 00:23:08,400 --> 00:23:09,400 Yeah, James. 410 00:23:09,400 --> 00:23:17,720 The only reason why is because in James 3, it yeah, because in James 3, it talks about 411 00:23:17,720 --> 00:23:25,400 the idea that faith and works go together and that anyone who does or says proves what 412 00:23:25,400 --> 00:23:30,680 they really believe and those who trust God, who really believe in him, begin to be changed 413 00:23:30,680 --> 00:23:33,160 in their speech as well. 414 00:23:33,160 --> 00:23:34,560 And yet everybody still stumbles. 415 00:23:34,560 --> 00:23:40,080 Like I mentioned before, that the tongue is untamable, capable of great destruction. 416 00:23:40,080 --> 00:23:46,720 In fact, James, in this whole chapter, calls it a fire, restless evil that in itself sets 417 00:23:46,720 --> 00:23:47,880 on fire by hell. 418 00:23:47,880 --> 00:23:51,880 But that's our tongue, because obviously you start saying stuff, you get used to saying 419 00:23:51,880 --> 00:23:53,480 those stuff. 420 00:23:53,480 --> 00:23:58,180 But we need to be changed and it shouldn't be the way we praise God and curse the people 421 00:23:58,180 --> 00:23:59,280 that made it in this image. 422 00:23:59,280 --> 00:24:01,520 And yet as fallen people, we do just that. 423 00:24:01,520 --> 00:24:07,560 So in James 3, it's a good starting point, especially the very first verse in James 3, 424 00:24:07,560 --> 00:24:16,240 one, it says, not many of you should become teachers, my brothers, for you know that we 425 00:24:16,240 --> 00:24:21,840 who teach will be judged with greater strictness, which you said. 426 00:24:21,840 --> 00:24:27,200 I've heard that many a time in my life. 427 00:24:27,200 --> 00:24:34,500 It's yeah, it's it's good because in here, James obviously starts off with a warning 428 00:24:34,500 --> 00:24:37,680 and taking on the title of teacher. 429 00:24:37,680 --> 00:24:42,480 And it's true, not not many Christians should aspire to be labeled as teachers. 430 00:24:42,480 --> 00:24:46,620 Those who claim the mantle of a teacher will face stricter judgment, as you can see here, 431 00:24:46,620 --> 00:24:48,400 or will be judged with greater strictness. 432 00:24:48,400 --> 00:24:52,400 One of the either or you could take that translation either way. 433 00:24:52,400 --> 00:24:57,840 And though more one claims to know the more cannibal they are held for what they do with 434 00:24:57,840 --> 00:25:06,680 that knowledge, which actually that verse is referencing over to John 9, for no John 435 00:25:06,680 --> 00:25:13,480 9, 41, which says if you Jesus himself said, if you were blind, you would have no guilt. 436 00:25:13,480 --> 00:25:20,560 But now that you say we see your guilt remains because it's that that concept of you know 437 00:25:20,560 --> 00:25:24,200 the sin and you still do it. 438 00:25:24,200 --> 00:25:27,080 So you can't do that. 439 00:25:27,080 --> 00:25:33,280 Like you got to know that if you see it, now you stay away from saying you know what to 440 00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:34,280 do. 441 00:25:34,280 --> 00:25:35,280 So do it. 442 00:25:35,280 --> 00:25:41,120 I have to correct that you can't just stay in your sin. 443 00:25:41,120 --> 00:25:48,760 You as a leader or a leader in teaching or preaching or anything, because that feel like 444 00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:53,080 I feel like you know, there was spirits to spiritual warfare, no matter what you're doing 445 00:25:53,080 --> 00:25:55,560 or where you're at. 446 00:25:55,560 --> 00:26:03,160 But once you're called into ministry or anything leadership, enemy is even attacking even harder. 447 00:26:03,160 --> 00:26:10,320 Oh, yeah, it's like I remember pasturing like at 21. 448 00:26:10,320 --> 00:26:14,200 There's times where I just like, boom, I just sit there and be like super depressed and 449 00:26:14,200 --> 00:26:19,840 he would just come and attack me and like, you know, and you know, point out my sins 450 00:26:19,840 --> 00:26:23,840 and make me like just like, oh, you are nothing. 451 00:26:23,840 --> 00:26:26,560 You fall short, blah, blah, blah. 452 00:26:26,560 --> 00:26:30,920 I remember, you know, yeah, I was talking with you. 453 00:26:30,920 --> 00:26:31,920 Probably. 454 00:26:31,920 --> 00:26:38,040 And I was just going like, we had to just remember that you're forgiven creation and 455 00:26:38,040 --> 00:26:40,200 you can't just stay in your old sin. 456 00:26:40,200 --> 00:26:44,120 You have to just write after giving this and work on it. 457 00:26:44,120 --> 00:26:46,520 Yeah, it was you. 458 00:26:46,520 --> 00:26:49,400 You're on the staircase. 459 00:26:49,400 --> 00:26:50,400 Long time ago. 460 00:26:50,400 --> 00:26:51,400 Remember that. 461 00:26:51,400 --> 00:26:55,520 Then I had a mental breakdown and we talked about it was pretty awesome. 462 00:26:55,520 --> 00:26:56,800 No, long stuff. 463 00:26:56,800 --> 00:26:57,800 Good times. 464 00:26:57,800 --> 00:26:58,800 Oh, yeah. 465 00:26:58,800 --> 00:27:02,280 And that's how you have growth. 466 00:27:02,280 --> 00:27:03,280 Right. 467 00:27:03,280 --> 00:27:04,280 Yeah. 468 00:27:04,280 --> 00:27:08,680 Because leadership is not easy. 469 00:27:08,680 --> 00:27:10,760 Your walk is not easy. 470 00:27:10,760 --> 00:27:16,960 So don't don't be discouraged if you feel like a sin's just messing with you and you 471 00:27:16,960 --> 00:27:17,960 can't beat it. 472 00:27:17,960 --> 00:27:21,520 And after this, rely on one another. 473 00:27:21,520 --> 00:27:24,880 Keep chugging because you have to get to really guard yourself. 474 00:27:24,880 --> 00:27:27,760 I just I feel like that's important to say. 475 00:27:27,760 --> 00:27:28,760 Sure. 476 00:27:28,760 --> 00:27:34,840 Well, it's like in this in this passage, a lot of Bible scholars actually speculate 477 00:27:34,840 --> 00:27:40,720 that James warning was in response to a problem with too many self titled teachers in the 478 00:27:40,720 --> 00:27:45,040 early, early Christian church, because it could be that some truly thought they were 479 00:27:45,040 --> 00:27:49,720 wise when they were still immature in their faith, still learning and like trying to be 480 00:27:49,720 --> 00:27:50,720 part of it. 481 00:27:50,720 --> 00:27:51,720 Right. 482 00:27:51,720 --> 00:27:58,200 I'll never claim to be like, you know, like I can't sit here and say that I'm, you know, 483 00:27:58,200 --> 00:28:04,080 mature and faith is more along the lines of like you understand the role of what you are 484 00:28:04,080 --> 00:28:12,000 being asked to do and you understand how to proclaim who God is and understand what the 485 00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:13,000 gospel is. 486 00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:15,920 And I would say that we're spiritual maturity. 487 00:28:15,920 --> 00:28:20,240 That is a requirement in that in that strictness for teaching. 488 00:28:20,240 --> 00:28:21,240 Right. 489 00:28:21,240 --> 00:28:33,520 Because that's the whole I mean, gospels are show to the of your faith because I mean, 490 00:28:33,520 --> 00:28:38,640 then like, you know, I think of acts stuff and then talking about going out like that's 491 00:28:38,640 --> 00:28:44,920 another thing super important because it talks about how to minister, go out and be missionaries 492 00:28:44,920 --> 00:28:49,720 and dealing with the day to day things. 493 00:28:49,720 --> 00:28:51,840 Right. 494 00:28:51,840 --> 00:28:57,040 Like yeah, you have to be rooted in no, no, that. 495 00:28:57,040 --> 00:28:59,040 Yeah. 496 00:28:59,040 --> 00:29:05,320 In the same chapter, James three verse 18, which context wise, if you want to read it, 497 00:29:05,320 --> 00:29:08,680 it's verse 13 to 18 is the context there. 498 00:29:08,680 --> 00:29:14,280 And it's it's just James who questions our concept of who is wise and understanding. 499 00:29:14,280 --> 00:29:20,280 James actually quickly answers the truly wise understanding person is the one whose faith 500 00:29:20,280 --> 00:29:26,500 in God leads to selfless good works and wise people live in the humility of wisdom, setting 501 00:29:26,500 --> 00:29:29,220 themselves aside to serve others. 502 00:29:29,220 --> 00:29:35,500 And in this context, James finishes in verse 18 saying, and the fruit of righteousness 503 00:29:35,500 --> 00:29:39,280 is sown in peace by those who make peace. 504 00:29:39,280 --> 00:29:43,360 Because in this you can see that James has concluded his thoughts from the previous verses, 505 00:29:43,360 --> 00:29:46,160 like I mentioned, with a beautiful word picture. 506 00:29:46,160 --> 00:29:50,560 Imagine fields full and ready to harvest the crop of the fields is righteousness, goodness 507 00:29:50,560 --> 00:29:54,680 and everything those who belong to God would hope to see in the world. 508 00:29:54,680 --> 00:29:59,040 And it's really cool because James elevates the role of peacemakers, one who committed 509 00:29:59,040 --> 00:30:04,380 to living peacefully and full confidence that God is providing for them. 510 00:30:04,380 --> 00:30:10,960 And so this is part of that, that teaching and part of that Christian walk and that we 511 00:30:10,960 --> 00:30:16,600 have to as anybody as teachers should be showing, should be living. 512 00:30:16,600 --> 00:30:20,360 And that's where like you see a media where there's like all these preachers on TV with 513 00:30:20,360 --> 00:30:23,000 signs screaming, you're going to hell. 514 00:30:23,000 --> 00:30:27,040 And like, you know, just screaming at people like Dan that right. 515 00:30:27,040 --> 00:30:33,400 I hate it because God says very specifically in through Jesus, through James, through Paul, 516 00:30:33,400 --> 00:30:36,180 through Peter, that we're peacemakers. 517 00:30:36,180 --> 00:30:37,180 There is sin. 518 00:30:37,180 --> 00:30:42,440 Yes, but you don't understand sin without the revelation of Christ. 519 00:30:42,440 --> 00:30:47,920 And people go out there on TV and are standing there with picket signs yelling at people. 520 00:30:47,920 --> 00:30:50,560 Like I understand if you're out there with a picket sign, just saying Jesus loves you. 521 00:30:50,560 --> 00:30:52,000 It's like, hey, ask me for questions. 522 00:30:52,000 --> 00:30:53,800 Jesus, you know, Jesus loves you. 523 00:30:53,800 --> 00:30:54,800 That's true. 524 00:30:54,800 --> 00:30:59,160 And there's like there's a difference in besides inciting people to anger. 525 00:30:59,160 --> 00:31:00,640 Oh, yeah. 526 00:31:00,640 --> 00:31:09,320 With that, which I think is that happens a lot, which is just a totally bad rap because 527 00:31:09,320 --> 00:31:13,040 it's like, you know, a good Christian is one who's going to be loving and kind and patient 528 00:31:13,040 --> 00:31:18,200 in the spirit. 529 00:31:18,200 --> 00:31:22,920 You know, there's like those for which get the church that's like burning stuff. 530 00:31:22,920 --> 00:31:28,160 And yeah, you remember the story. 531 00:31:28,160 --> 00:31:34,280 Chapter 14, 53 to 65, where Jesus is before his accusers, before he dies, right before 532 00:31:34,280 --> 00:31:37,000 he gets persecuted. 533 00:31:37,000 --> 00:31:43,000 And it's really interesting to note that he is silence before his accusers. 534 00:31:43,000 --> 00:31:48,840 And this is really interesting to know because he he put aside his pride, even though he 535 00:31:48,840 --> 00:31:52,240 knew the truth and what was going to happen and what was going on. 536 00:31:52,240 --> 00:31:57,240 He kept quiet and they were like, look, he did this, he did this and he does this and 537 00:31:57,240 --> 00:31:58,440 this is what he does. 538 00:31:58,440 --> 00:32:00,600 And he's living this or blah, blah, blah. 539 00:32:00,600 --> 00:32:04,800 He broke this law and he just did their silence and he wasn't saying anything. 540 00:32:04,800 --> 00:32:08,800 And it was just that point to where it's like. 541 00:32:08,800 --> 00:32:15,120 You don't you don't say things that if it's not going to lead to productive. 542 00:32:15,120 --> 00:32:16,320 Productive conversation. 543 00:32:16,320 --> 00:32:21,360 And there's even points to where in the Bible it talks about like not causing arguments 544 00:32:21,360 --> 00:32:22,660 or someone's argumentative. 545 00:32:22,660 --> 00:32:27,600 We just move on because there's nothing positive is going to happen from that. 546 00:32:27,600 --> 00:32:34,800 Like I have a friend that doesn't believe in God, younger dude, but it's really cool 547 00:32:34,800 --> 00:32:39,480 because we'll talk with each other and he'll ask questions. 548 00:32:39,480 --> 00:32:42,120 Sometimes he makes jokes, but that's that's who he is. 549 00:32:42,120 --> 00:32:44,100 He doesn't understand that's OK. 550 00:32:44,100 --> 00:32:49,600 But I don't like we can talk and discuss without having to be like, you're wrong, you're wrong, 551 00:32:49,600 --> 00:32:51,820 yelling at each other like you're an idiot or whatever. 552 00:32:51,820 --> 00:32:53,000 We don't do that stuff. 553 00:32:53,000 --> 00:32:54,200 It's just like, let's talk. 554 00:32:54,200 --> 00:32:55,200 OK, yes, questions. 555 00:32:55,200 --> 00:32:56,880 I have answers from my perspective. 556 00:32:56,880 --> 00:32:59,320 If he doesn't like those answers, he just moves on. 557 00:32:59,320 --> 00:33:00,920 He's like, OK, well, I don't believe that. 558 00:33:00,920 --> 00:33:01,920 I'm like, OK, cool. 559 00:33:01,920 --> 00:33:03,100 Well, it gets up to you. 560 00:33:03,100 --> 00:33:05,300 It's your choice, not mine. 561 00:33:05,300 --> 00:33:06,460 You are so good at that. 562 00:33:06,460 --> 00:33:11,160 I am I am what we call an argumentative person. 563 00:33:11,160 --> 00:33:13,080 I know you am. 564 00:33:13,080 --> 00:33:14,560 I know I am. 565 00:33:14,560 --> 00:33:20,560 But like, you know, I see I sometimes I say I would say I'm argumentative. 566 00:33:20,560 --> 00:33:22,360 I'm passionate. 567 00:33:22,360 --> 00:33:23,440 Right. 568 00:33:23,440 --> 00:33:25,080 But passion. 569 00:33:25,080 --> 00:33:26,080 But it does. 570 00:33:26,080 --> 00:33:27,080 It is. 571 00:33:27,080 --> 00:33:28,080 They're close. 572 00:33:28,080 --> 00:33:30,080 And I definitely am because I can. 573 00:33:30,080 --> 00:33:32,080 That's what we can say. 574 00:33:32,080 --> 00:33:34,040 Well, the sky is purple. 575 00:33:34,040 --> 00:33:36,960 I'm like, I could say the sky is purple. 576 00:33:36,960 --> 00:33:37,960 No, it's not. 577 00:33:37,960 --> 00:33:43,160 I'm like, I will argue with you just because I like I like to debate. 578 00:33:43,160 --> 00:33:44,520 Yeah, debating. 579 00:33:44,520 --> 00:33:49,000 I think that's I think debating and I don't like. 580 00:33:49,000 --> 00:33:52,720 Like proving that I'm right. 581 00:33:52,720 --> 00:33:58,240 Which is it's it's you know, like I could sit here and argue, you know, about peanut 582 00:33:58,240 --> 00:34:01,160 butter M&Ms being the best. 583 00:34:01,160 --> 00:34:06,280 You know, you know, it's something silly, you know, but then it comes to other things 584 00:34:06,280 --> 00:34:10,960 and, you know, that's where I'm like, well, spew out a bunch of facts and be like, well, 585 00:34:10,960 --> 00:34:14,040 this is this is that I'm like, huh? 586 00:34:14,040 --> 00:34:16,560 Just not good. 587 00:34:16,560 --> 00:34:20,480 It's more or less thing I have to be comfortable with the person I can't. 588 00:34:20,480 --> 00:34:22,800 I won't are like, I'll be more. 589 00:34:22,800 --> 00:34:24,440 Oh, it's my siblings. 590 00:34:24,440 --> 00:34:27,280 I'm like, oh, let's go. 591 00:34:27,280 --> 00:34:28,280 She isn't good. 592 00:34:28,280 --> 00:34:30,080 But isn't it? 593 00:34:30,080 --> 00:34:31,080 I think it was. 594 00:34:31,080 --> 00:34:33,680 What was that? 595 00:34:33,680 --> 00:34:35,320 I think it was J.C. 596 00:34:35,320 --> 00:34:38,200 Royal, I think, who said it? 597 00:34:38,200 --> 00:34:41,520 I don't know what you're talking about. 598 00:34:41,520 --> 00:34:50,680 As a Christian, it is our position to share the word of God. 599 00:34:50,680 --> 00:34:54,760 And with that sharing, God intervenes. 600 00:34:54,760 --> 00:35:02,400 It's up to the Holy Spirit and God to convince to convict our life and who we are is not 601 00:35:02,400 --> 00:35:04,500 to convict people. 602 00:35:04,500 --> 00:35:07,320 We are there to share and to discuss. 603 00:35:07,320 --> 00:35:08,480 And that's it. 604 00:35:08,480 --> 00:35:14,120 So when people are like, I'm trying this person's going to change and be saved and I'm trying 605 00:35:14,120 --> 00:35:16,880 to convict them that they are in the wrong. 606 00:35:16,880 --> 00:35:18,120 That's not your job to convict. 607 00:35:18,120 --> 00:35:19,120 You're not God. 608 00:35:19,120 --> 00:35:20,120 You're not the Holy Spirit. 609 00:35:20,120 --> 00:35:23,520 Like I said, sin is a revelation of the Holy Spirit. 610 00:35:23,520 --> 00:35:27,680 You think somebody out there that hears the word of God, like I don't know who God is 611 00:35:27,680 --> 00:35:29,220 and I don't believe in the Bible. 612 00:35:29,220 --> 00:35:31,920 You think they're going to think that everything they're doing is sin or not? 613 00:35:31,920 --> 00:35:35,680 They don't understand it because the Holy Spirit comes in to help you. 614 00:35:35,680 --> 00:35:39,920 It's a guide to help you and strengthen you to understand who God is. 615 00:35:39,920 --> 00:35:42,200 So you start seeing. 616 00:35:42,200 --> 00:35:46,200 That's why it's like there was another preacher who was saying the closer you get to God, 617 00:35:46,200 --> 00:35:48,280 the more simple your life seems. 618 00:35:48,280 --> 00:35:56,180 It's because as you walk the walk of Christ and understand his his life and who he is 619 00:35:56,180 --> 00:36:01,620 and who he represents and how that looks, everything we do starts to look more sinful 620 00:36:01,620 --> 00:36:03,000 because it's not for God. 621 00:36:03,000 --> 00:36:09,120 We start to see, wow, doing cussing is like everything you start doing. 622 00:36:09,120 --> 00:36:11,760 This is going to be like, wow, I really didn't want to say that. 623 00:36:11,760 --> 00:36:12,760 Wow. 624 00:36:12,760 --> 00:36:15,720 I really said something negative and that person is going to feel that like they're 625 00:36:15,720 --> 00:36:17,360 really taking that in. 626 00:36:17,360 --> 00:36:21,600 I need to wash my mouth or you do something that you normally do and you're like, man, 627 00:36:21,600 --> 00:36:22,600 this just feels gross. 628 00:36:22,600 --> 00:36:24,020 Like this doesn't feel right. 629 00:36:24,020 --> 00:36:25,020 I'm not. 630 00:36:25,020 --> 00:36:29,600 Well, it stirs up, you know, stirs in your soul. 631 00:36:29,600 --> 00:36:33,160 Holy spirit, you know, conviction. 632 00:36:33,160 --> 00:36:34,160 Yeah. 633 00:36:34,160 --> 00:36:37,560 From the spirit, you're like, oh, wow. 634 00:36:37,560 --> 00:36:42,600 No, it's you had to die to your old flesh. 635 00:36:42,600 --> 00:36:44,240 That's why we were born in Christ, right? 636 00:36:44,240 --> 00:36:45,560 We're reborn again. 637 00:36:45,560 --> 00:36:48,080 We're born again in God and in his kingdom. 638 00:36:48,080 --> 00:36:52,380 We're adopted in his kingdom and we are born again, which means that we understand because 639 00:36:52,380 --> 00:36:57,160 through the Holy Spirit and the revelation of the spirit brings what sin is. 640 00:36:57,160 --> 00:37:02,360 And we want to learn more about who God is, which there's a verse on that, which we will 641 00:37:02,360 --> 00:37:07,520 talk about because I think it's second Timothy three, 16. 642 00:37:07,520 --> 00:37:08,520 I'll just actually bring it up. 643 00:37:08,520 --> 00:37:10,600 It's Timothy three, 16. 644 00:37:10,600 --> 00:37:14,360 I am more than sure that that's the one that says all scripture is God breathed and is 645 00:37:14,360 --> 00:37:19,800 useful for teaching, rebuking, correction and training and righteousness. 646 00:37:19,800 --> 00:37:20,800 So we got second Timothy. 647 00:37:20,800 --> 00:37:21,800 What was it? 648 00:37:21,800 --> 00:37:22,800 Three, 16. 649 00:37:22,800 --> 00:37:24,880 I'm going off my memory. 650 00:37:24,880 --> 00:37:28,120 So it stops at 17. 651 00:37:28,120 --> 00:37:29,880 So well, 16. 652 00:37:29,880 --> 00:37:30,880 So that's a good start. 653 00:37:30,880 --> 00:37:31,880 That's what I'm saying. 654 00:37:31,880 --> 00:37:39,440 All scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching or reproof of correction and 655 00:37:39,440 --> 00:37:41,160 for training and righteousness. 656 00:37:41,160 --> 00:37:42,160 Okay, cool. 657 00:37:42,160 --> 00:37:43,160 Yeah. 658 00:37:43,160 --> 00:37:47,640 That was the man of God may be complete, equipped every good work. 659 00:37:47,640 --> 00:37:48,640 Yep. 660 00:37:48,640 --> 00:37:50,640 There we go. 661 00:37:50,640 --> 00:37:51,640 Exactly. 662 00:37:51,640 --> 00:37:54,280 So that's exactly what I was thinking of in my head. 663 00:37:54,280 --> 00:37:55,280 So that's good. 664 00:37:55,280 --> 00:37:56,280 I got that one. 665 00:37:56,280 --> 00:38:03,560 But it's true because scripture is it's like I said, we're going to do an episode on the 666 00:38:03,560 --> 00:38:09,240 validity of scripture itself, but scripture as a whole, you can trace back history and 667 00:38:09,240 --> 00:38:13,120 see that it's written six thousand manuscripts. 668 00:38:13,120 --> 00:38:17,080 There was manuscripts written before Jesus was around about prophecies of Jesus. 669 00:38:17,080 --> 00:38:22,120 Jesus fulfilled 300 prophecies when he lived and died and came back again. 670 00:38:22,120 --> 00:38:30,280 There's so many things that bring validity to the Bible and to scripture being true. 671 00:38:30,280 --> 00:38:34,960 Whether you believe he was the son of God or not, even as a historian who doesn't take 672 00:38:34,960 --> 00:38:42,640 part in who God is, the Bible being accurate historically is very, very like one of the 673 00:38:42,640 --> 00:38:50,280 most accurate, accurate proved books in history when it comes to history. 674 00:38:50,280 --> 00:38:52,840 I forget what the odds are. 675 00:38:52,840 --> 00:39:02,240 I think if he were to use like some university did a study, did a thing on it where to define 676 00:39:02,240 --> 00:39:10,480 if he just completed like three of these, whatever it was, it would be like 30 something 677 00:39:10,480 --> 00:39:18,960 in the Olympics swimming pools of hay and finding the needle on the first try. 678 00:39:18,960 --> 00:39:23,480 Well, the chance of one man fulfilling all eight prophecies, like the beginning eight 679 00:39:23,480 --> 00:39:26,920 prophecies is ten to the 17th power. 680 00:39:26,920 --> 00:39:29,520 Yeah, that's what it was. 681 00:39:29,520 --> 00:39:34,520 And it's like, and then like all of them is something like a couple of our universe, as 682 00:39:34,520 --> 00:39:38,160 they said. 683 00:39:38,160 --> 00:39:41,920 And put it in silver dollar form, 10 to 17. 684 00:39:41,920 --> 00:39:44,360 But this is just eight, eight prophecies. 685 00:39:44,360 --> 00:39:49,120 So supposedly, yeah, well, let's say 10 to the 17th power, let's take silver dollars. 686 00:39:49,120 --> 00:39:53,560 If you take silver dollars and lay them on the face of Texas, the whole state, which 687 00:39:53,560 --> 00:39:59,760 Texas is massive, they'll cover the whole the state two feet deep. 688 00:39:59,760 --> 00:40:06,800 That's how, how insane the odds are of Christ fulfilling just eight and he fulfilled 300 689 00:40:06,800 --> 00:40:08,960 to find that one coin. 690 00:40:08,960 --> 00:40:09,960 Yeah. 691 00:40:09,960 --> 00:40:18,480 It's just, I think it only got like more crazy, like, you know, like, what was it like 20 692 00:40:18,480 --> 00:40:19,480 or 30 of them? 693 00:40:19,480 --> 00:40:21,960 It'd be like draining the ocean. 694 00:40:21,960 --> 00:40:23,520 Mm hmm. 695 00:40:23,520 --> 00:40:27,200 Doing the same thing here to fill it up. 696 00:40:27,200 --> 00:40:31,600 It's it's crazy to me, like just like the chances of it all. 697 00:40:31,600 --> 00:40:34,320 And so it was like, well, it was written and made up. 698 00:40:34,320 --> 00:40:39,440 And so that way, you know, if they wrote, wrote the book and then you just make it so 699 00:40:39,440 --> 00:40:41,200 that way, everything's correct. 700 00:40:41,200 --> 00:40:47,280 It's like they have the original, like, you know, they have the Dead Sea Scrolls, they 701 00:40:47,280 --> 00:40:49,280 have all this stuff. 702 00:40:49,280 --> 00:40:56,360 It's like it takes so many years of everything. 703 00:40:56,360 --> 00:41:02,880 I think it takes a lot more faith to believe that somebody made all this up and it's stuck. 704 00:41:02,880 --> 00:41:12,080 And then Jesus dying and people him because like I was talking about two weeks ago, youth 705 00:41:12,080 --> 00:41:18,600 group that most people during this time of Jesus to until this day, people claim to be 706 00:41:18,600 --> 00:41:19,600 the second coming. 707 00:41:19,600 --> 00:41:20,600 They're not saying coming. 708 00:41:20,600 --> 00:41:22,600 They claim to be the Messiah. 709 00:41:22,600 --> 00:41:23,600 Mm hmm. 710 00:41:23,600 --> 00:41:30,360 And Jewish, you know, or in everything like I am a Messiah. 711 00:41:30,360 --> 00:41:31,360 Follow me. 712 00:41:31,360 --> 00:41:32,440 And people would do that. 713 00:41:32,440 --> 00:41:33,440 People would follow it. 714 00:41:33,440 --> 00:41:37,360 You know, someone who was claiming to be the Messiah. 715 00:41:37,360 --> 00:41:42,240 And as soon as people start, you know, they start telling people off who were like, oh, 716 00:41:42,240 --> 00:41:44,200 I'm not quite sure about this anymore. 717 00:41:44,200 --> 00:41:46,200 And they just bail. 718 00:41:46,200 --> 00:41:49,400 Maybe dip Jesus, though. 719 00:41:49,400 --> 00:41:52,840 We're like, no, we know this is real. 720 00:41:52,840 --> 00:41:58,440 And it didn't die off because it was legit. 721 00:41:58,440 --> 00:42:02,040 He is actual son of God. 722 00:42:02,040 --> 00:42:04,120 It shows that is like, oh, crap. 723 00:42:04,120 --> 00:42:07,000 OK, he's actually like really is God. 724 00:42:07,000 --> 00:42:08,000 Right. 725 00:42:08,000 --> 00:42:10,240 She do need to follow him. 726 00:42:10,240 --> 00:42:14,480 Like, yes, like you look at Stephen. 727 00:42:14,480 --> 00:42:18,440 Got stoned to death and he was like, looking of the holy, you know, looking for God, I'm 728 00:42:18,440 --> 00:42:21,480 like, Holy Spirit, thank you, God. 729 00:42:21,480 --> 00:42:23,000 Still praising God in the end. 730 00:42:23,000 --> 00:42:24,480 Like that's the difference. 731 00:42:24,480 --> 00:42:27,000 People were trying, you know, they're being killed. 732 00:42:27,000 --> 00:42:33,120 Murder, you know, like persecuted if they were following the killing, like Bar Jesus. 733 00:42:33,120 --> 00:42:36,320 We were like, oh, yeah, cool. 734 00:42:36,320 --> 00:42:37,320 He says he's Jesus. 735 00:42:37,320 --> 00:42:41,360 He says that he's you know, he's a sorcerer. 736 00:42:41,360 --> 00:42:44,120 Oh, and then I mean, Saul was so pissed. 737 00:42:44,120 --> 00:42:48,440 He was like, you know what? 738 00:42:48,440 --> 00:42:49,720 You're stricken with blindness. 739 00:42:49,720 --> 00:42:50,720 Now enjoy that. 740 00:42:50,720 --> 00:42:55,680 Like, it's like you dare try to claim to be the king of kings. 741 00:42:55,680 --> 00:43:01,240 It's like there's a difference between our God and those fake ones. 742 00:43:01,240 --> 00:43:02,240 Right. 743 00:43:02,240 --> 00:43:05,360 He's a legit and he has the power. 744 00:43:05,360 --> 00:43:10,400 I mean, just I know we're on an off tangent thing, but it gave you an idea. 745 00:43:10,400 --> 00:43:11,400 Right. 746 00:43:11,400 --> 00:43:18,480 Even if you get an idea of let's just say he if he was to fulfill 48 prophecies, just 747 00:43:18,480 --> 00:43:19,480 do the math. 748 00:43:19,480 --> 00:43:20,480 Rosso, my story. 749 00:43:20,480 --> 00:43:21,480 Yeah. 750 00:43:21,480 --> 00:43:24,440 And if you do like just 48 prophecies. 751 00:43:24,440 --> 00:43:25,440 Wow. 752 00:43:25,440 --> 00:43:26,440 I did. 753 00:43:26,440 --> 00:43:34,200 And I'm backing your claims. 754 00:43:34,200 --> 00:43:41,400 If if he Jesus fulfilled only a man filled 48 of the prophecies in the Old Testament, 755 00:43:41,400 --> 00:43:49,280 you're looking at 10 to the hundred and fifty seventh power, which to give you an idea how 756 00:43:49,280 --> 00:43:51,000 much that is. 757 00:43:51,000 --> 00:43:52,000 Yeah. 758 00:43:52,000 --> 00:43:59,120 If you let's say you put it into electrons, which are smaller than atoms, if you take 759 00:43:59,120 --> 00:44:05,160 250 electrons each minute and count them and count the day and night. 760 00:44:05,160 --> 00:44:08,960 You make up that number, it would take 19 million years just to count a line one inch 761 00:44:08,960 --> 00:44:10,680 long. 762 00:44:10,680 --> 00:44:19,560 And so this is how yeah, this is how insane the probability is in the sense that like 763 00:44:19,560 --> 00:44:28,800 10 to a hundred and fifty seven power is counting 250 of that number each minute would take 764 00:44:28,800 --> 00:44:33,160 19 million years to even come close to that. 765 00:44:33,160 --> 00:44:35,040 And that's only 48 prophecies. 766 00:44:35,040 --> 00:44:36,040 That's so crazy. 767 00:44:36,040 --> 00:44:41,760 I think the total number was like 455 or 456 total prophecies that he did. 768 00:44:41,760 --> 00:44:45,680 I know it was over 300, but I'm pretty sure it was like 455 or 456. 769 00:44:45,680 --> 00:44:49,680 Even just even that alone is remarkable. 770 00:44:49,680 --> 00:44:50,880 Yeah. 771 00:44:50,880 --> 00:44:58,720 So you're talking closer to like 10 to the three thousandth power, which is more insane 772 00:44:58,720 --> 00:45:02,520 when you think that he actually fulfilled those prophecies. 773 00:45:02,520 --> 00:45:07,920 It was literally impossible, virtually impossible for Christ to fulfill all the prophecies. 774 00:45:07,920 --> 00:45:09,400 And he did. 775 00:45:09,400 --> 00:45:13,920 So that's impossible for the for the Lord of Lords and King of Kings. 776 00:45:13,920 --> 00:45:14,920 Right. 777 00:45:14,920 --> 00:45:19,520 So let's continue because I know we're running out of time, but we never run out of time. 778 00:45:19,520 --> 00:45:22,520 What are you talking about? 779 00:45:22,520 --> 00:45:24,480 We're talking about this stuff. 780 00:45:24,480 --> 00:45:26,280 That's why, guys, we do. 781 00:45:26,280 --> 00:45:28,440 And it's fantastic. 782 00:45:28,440 --> 00:45:32,040 I'll share this verse and I'll quickly touch up on it and see your opinion and then go 783 00:45:32,040 --> 00:45:35,200 to the next one and then we'll talk about teaching because we haven't got to the teaching 784 00:45:35,200 --> 00:45:36,200 side. 785 00:45:36,200 --> 00:45:37,200 Sorry. 786 00:45:37,200 --> 00:45:38,200 Preaching side. 787 00:45:38,200 --> 00:45:39,200 My bad. 788 00:45:39,200 --> 00:45:40,200 Preaching side. 789 00:45:40,200 --> 00:45:41,200 We're talking about teaching. 790 00:45:41,200 --> 00:45:42,200 Doing teaching. 791 00:45:42,200 --> 00:45:43,200 Yeah. 792 00:45:43,200 --> 00:45:48,840 So Paul says this is Paul and he says, keep a close watch on yourself and on the teaching. 793 00:45:48,840 --> 00:45:53,440 Persist in this for by doing so, you will save both yourself and your hearers. 794 00:45:53,440 --> 00:45:55,920 It's really important. 795 00:45:55,920 --> 00:45:58,160 The context is verse 11 to 16. 796 00:45:58,160 --> 00:46:07,280 But it's just it's the consistency of understanding who God is and persistent in living that lifestyle 797 00:46:07,280 --> 00:46:09,200 and pursuing him. 798 00:46:09,200 --> 00:46:10,360 Right. 799 00:46:10,360 --> 00:46:17,960 The it's really cool to see that he's evaluating his teachings in this and what it looks like 800 00:46:17,960 --> 00:46:21,520 to be a leader of the church in that sense. 801 00:46:21,520 --> 00:46:24,800 The ability to understand, teach and live out the truths of the gospel are essential 802 00:46:24,800 --> 00:46:30,000 to the work of a Christian church leader or a leader and teacher in general. 803 00:46:30,000 --> 00:46:35,280 And these have been the theme of Paul's message in this passage specifically. 804 00:46:35,280 --> 00:46:41,560 Yeah, I figured I'd share that one. 805 00:46:41,560 --> 00:46:45,440 And then I only have one more verse for preaching the teaching side. 806 00:46:45,440 --> 00:46:49,480 I keep getting backwards, but the teaching side, I have no idea what we're talking about 807 00:46:49,480 --> 00:46:50,480 now. 808 00:46:50,480 --> 00:46:53,720 I'm all lost teaching, preaching, teaching, teaching, teaching. 809 00:46:53,720 --> 00:46:55,320 Is it really different? 810 00:46:55,320 --> 00:46:56,920 So I don't even know. 811 00:46:56,920 --> 00:46:57,920 No. 812 00:46:57,920 --> 00:46:58,920 Yes, there is. 813 00:46:58,920 --> 00:46:59,920 We've been this is the teachings. 814 00:46:59,920 --> 00:47:02,000 OK, we'll get to the preaching side and what's different about it. 815 00:47:02,000 --> 00:47:05,960 Teaching side, first, John three, nine. 816 00:47:05,960 --> 00:47:10,360 This is my last verse for the teaching side and context. 817 00:47:10,360 --> 00:47:13,000 That's once again, the teaching side. 818 00:47:13,000 --> 00:47:14,320 Yes. 819 00:47:14,320 --> 00:47:18,140 The context here is verse four to ten. 820 00:47:18,140 --> 00:47:24,080 This verse says no one who has been born of God practices sin because his seed remains 821 00:47:24,080 --> 00:47:30,320 in him and he cannot sin continually because he has been born of God. 822 00:47:30,320 --> 00:47:34,440 And this is going back to what you and me were saying with the Holy Spirit bringing 823 00:47:34,440 --> 00:47:40,360 conviction and understanding, because when you are reborn in Christ, you accept Christ, 824 00:47:40,360 --> 00:47:43,480 you're born again, you're gifted, gifted the Holy Spirit. 825 00:47:43,480 --> 00:47:47,440 And once you're gifted the Holy Spirit, you have that discernment, you have that conviction 826 00:47:47,440 --> 00:47:50,640 and you have the strength and the peace and everything that comes with the Holy Spirit 827 00:47:50,640 --> 00:47:55,040 to move you forward through whatever situations you deal with in this world. 828 00:47:55,040 --> 00:48:00,880 So this is the born again, the believer, the one who actually follows Christ and lives 829 00:48:00,880 --> 00:48:01,880 for Christ. 830 00:48:01,880 --> 00:48:05,160 This is what that is talking about directly. 831 00:48:05,160 --> 00:48:06,160 Yeah. 832 00:48:06,160 --> 00:48:11,400 I figured you had thoughts on it, so I stopped. 833 00:48:11,400 --> 00:48:16,800 Yeah, I mean, I had to be born again. 834 00:48:16,800 --> 00:48:18,680 That's the biggest thing. 835 00:48:18,680 --> 00:48:19,680 Right. 836 00:48:19,680 --> 00:48:24,840 You know, preaching, what are we on? 837 00:48:24,840 --> 00:48:25,840 Teaching. 838 00:48:25,840 --> 00:48:26,840 Teaching. 839 00:48:26,840 --> 00:48:36,960 You know, there's about that is big because it's one thing like. 840 00:48:36,960 --> 00:48:38,680 Can you really teach the Holy Spirit? 841 00:48:38,680 --> 00:48:44,800 I mean, you have to experience it like. 842 00:48:44,800 --> 00:48:49,320 I'll put it this way, teaching grace is not a license to sin. 843 00:48:49,320 --> 00:48:55,920 Those who sin without remorse, without conviction or without change have no relationship with 844 00:48:55,920 --> 00:48:57,400 Christ whatsoever. 845 00:48:57,400 --> 00:48:58,480 Period. 846 00:48:58,480 --> 00:49:03,760 You live a life of sin and continue to sin with no remorse or conviction and you do not 847 00:49:03,760 --> 00:49:08,940 change what your ways because it is sin and you don't you choose not to change it. 848 00:49:08,940 --> 00:49:12,440 You have no relationship with Christ because that is the relationship with Christ is that 849 00:49:12,440 --> 00:49:15,240 you understand what sin is. 850 00:49:15,240 --> 00:49:20,900 You read and you see what sin is and then it says, do not do this and you still do it. 851 00:49:20,900 --> 00:49:25,880 You do not have relationship with Christ. 852 00:49:25,880 --> 00:49:30,200 And you cannot be a teacher and do that at the same time. 853 00:49:30,200 --> 00:49:34,640 That was that was the most important part is that you as a teacher, you live the life 854 00:49:34,640 --> 00:49:42,120 of Christ calling you to not to live without sin, but to not to live continuous sin, to 855 00:49:42,120 --> 00:49:48,680 choose to continually sin and go against God, because that's what sin is, is against God, 856 00:49:48,680 --> 00:49:51,040 which we talk about it in another episode in season one. 857 00:49:51,040 --> 00:49:52,040 What is sin? 858 00:49:52,040 --> 00:49:53,040 Go check it out. 859 00:49:53,040 --> 00:49:54,040 It is sin. 860 00:49:54,040 --> 00:49:55,040 That's right. 861 00:49:55,040 --> 00:49:56,040 Was that a Rick? 862 00:49:56,040 --> 00:49:57,040 Was that a Rick? 863 00:49:57,040 --> 00:49:58,480 Is that a Rick wall in the background? 864 00:49:58,480 --> 00:50:00,520 No, that would be. 865 00:50:00,520 --> 00:50:05,600 I just heard I was like, I heard drums. 866 00:50:05,600 --> 00:50:12,720 I would be the notification on my phone for some reason. 867 00:50:12,720 --> 00:50:16,080 It was all muted and I decided to make sounds. 868 00:50:16,080 --> 00:50:17,960 That's pretty good. 869 00:50:17,960 --> 00:50:23,840 Really teach myself how to properly do that correctly and turn it off. 870 00:50:23,840 --> 00:50:25,600 That's fine. 871 00:50:25,600 --> 00:50:28,320 So you ready to go switch this over to preaching? 872 00:50:28,320 --> 00:50:31,160 Oh, let me get my pulpit. 873 00:50:31,160 --> 00:50:39,160 Yes, I. Yeah, that's real quick. 874 00:50:39,160 --> 00:50:42,160 We should go over what preaching is again. 875 00:50:42,160 --> 00:50:45,520 Yeah, I agree. 876 00:50:45,520 --> 00:50:48,480 Don't have the notes preaching. 877 00:50:48,480 --> 00:50:50,760 Oh, yeah. 878 00:50:50,760 --> 00:50:54,400 So preaching is proclamation. 879 00:50:54,400 --> 00:50:57,840 That aims to invite and exhort. 880 00:50:57,840 --> 00:51:02,520 It's more monological. 881 00:51:02,520 --> 00:51:04,540 That's what preaching is. 882 00:51:04,540 --> 00:51:09,600 So as you as I was saying before, we're called the preach all of us in the sense that we 883 00:51:09,600 --> 00:51:15,040 are sharing the dialogue of Christ and who he is. 884 00:51:15,040 --> 00:51:19,200 Go out, preach the gospel, that kind of stuff, which we'll get into the verses about it, 885 00:51:19,200 --> 00:51:20,200 which is awesome. 886 00:51:20,200 --> 00:51:27,640 So, for example, first, no, second, Timothy, second, Timothy, four, two. 887 00:51:27,640 --> 00:51:31,000 Context, there is one one to eight. 888 00:51:31,000 --> 00:51:33,440 That's the context. 889 00:51:33,440 --> 00:51:37,520 Verse two says, preach the word. 890 00:51:37,520 --> 00:51:40,760 Be ready in season and out of season. 891 00:51:40,760 --> 00:51:41,760 Correct. 892 00:51:41,760 --> 00:51:46,400 Rebuke and exhort with great patience and instruction. 893 00:51:46,400 --> 00:51:51,200 So that's good to know. 894 00:51:51,200 --> 00:51:54,520 Preach the word. 895 00:51:54,520 --> 00:51:57,880 You know, it's first timid first, let's get this out of way. 896 00:51:57,880 --> 00:52:01,640 Timothy was to be ready when preaching was convenient. 897 00:52:01,640 --> 00:52:06,840 The phrase in season refers to those times when one is, by common sense, supposed to 898 00:52:06,840 --> 00:52:08,400 be preaching a word. 899 00:52:08,400 --> 00:52:11,680 These are like friendly circumstances, safe time, stuff like that. 900 00:52:11,680 --> 00:52:16,800 But secondly, we see Timothy was to be ready when preaching was not convenient. 901 00:52:16,800 --> 00:52:19,400 This is the meaning of the phrase like out of season. 902 00:52:19,400 --> 00:52:24,720 So there are times when proclaiming the truth is awkward, difficult and resisted. 903 00:52:24,720 --> 00:52:25,720 Yes. 904 00:52:25,720 --> 00:52:27,880 Real quick on that. 905 00:52:27,880 --> 00:52:29,840 I just think it's something I've always been told to. 906 00:52:29,840 --> 00:52:41,800 I was told, I think before I started, you know, my ministry and preaching is that you 907 00:52:41,800 --> 00:52:47,000 should always have a lesson ready to go for any circumstance in a sense that you should 908 00:52:47,000 --> 00:52:48,880 have one ready to go. 909 00:52:48,880 --> 00:52:55,360 You never know when God's going to call you to preach or preach. 910 00:52:55,360 --> 00:52:59,640 I think of that when you said that I was just, it's like, yeah, you should be have a lesson 911 00:52:59,640 --> 00:53:00,640 ready to go. 912 00:53:00,640 --> 00:53:06,720 If God calls you to teach or, you know, just be ready to go at any time. 913 00:53:06,720 --> 00:53:10,080 And it's like, I learned that one. 914 00:53:10,080 --> 00:53:12,920 I think I really got it down when I was in Mexico. 915 00:53:12,920 --> 00:53:13,920 Yeah. 916 00:53:13,920 --> 00:53:19,640 I'm like, okay, hey, we're going to have you teach the youth group here in Mexico. 917 00:53:19,640 --> 00:53:24,280 I'm like, oh, I'm like, I'm going to have an interpreter, right? 918 00:53:24,280 --> 00:53:29,440 Because, you know, yo espanol es muy malo. 919 00:53:29,440 --> 00:53:31,400 Like, no, thank you. 920 00:53:31,400 --> 00:53:35,600 Like I'm not ordering tacos, so therefore I do not know how to say everything I need 921 00:53:35,600 --> 00:53:36,600 to. 922 00:53:36,600 --> 00:53:37,600 Right. 923 00:53:37,600 --> 00:53:43,520 I feel like, you know, now too, like I have a couple of lessons that you just instantly 924 00:53:43,520 --> 00:53:44,520 go to. 925 00:53:44,520 --> 00:53:50,280 And I think that's important as a preacher to have have a pulpit ready in a sense. 926 00:53:50,280 --> 00:53:55,800 You can just kind of be like, okay, boom, we're to talk about e-hood. 927 00:53:55,800 --> 00:53:56,800 Well that's teaching. 928 00:53:56,800 --> 00:53:57,800 That's the difference. 929 00:53:57,800 --> 00:53:58,800 Yeah. 930 00:53:58,800 --> 00:54:02,120 That's the difference is teaching, having it. 931 00:54:02,120 --> 00:54:03,120 Yeah. 932 00:54:03,120 --> 00:54:07,240 Having lessons, having stuff ready to help people. 933 00:54:07,240 --> 00:54:09,120 But that's where the preaching side comes in. 934 00:54:09,120 --> 00:54:14,320 We're preaching is more about just sharing the gospel who God is. 935 00:54:14,320 --> 00:54:16,720 So in the same sense, being prepped. 936 00:54:16,720 --> 00:54:17,720 Yes. 937 00:54:17,720 --> 00:54:18,720 Yeah. 938 00:54:18,720 --> 00:54:25,480 Being prepped, but you can see that with the gospel and the way that the teacher preaches 939 00:54:25,480 --> 00:54:27,080 others is what I'm getting at. 940 00:54:27,080 --> 00:54:28,080 Yeah. 941 00:54:28,080 --> 00:54:29,080 You know what I mean? 942 00:54:29,080 --> 00:54:30,400 They have that preparation to teach. 943 00:54:30,400 --> 00:54:36,480 Like I always, you know, I take e-hood and I tend to profit. 944 00:54:36,480 --> 00:54:43,840 I can preach on it and, you know, tell people about like how God used him and how it doesn't 945 00:54:43,840 --> 00:54:47,840 matter, you know, if you think something's wrong with you, if you think you're less than 946 00:54:47,840 --> 00:54:52,960 not enough, et cetera, that God will use you. 947 00:54:52,960 --> 00:54:57,800 And that's like, you know, Jesus wants to use anybody to, for his kingdom, we all have 948 00:54:57,800 --> 00:55:02,600 salvation no matter what's wrong with us, if we think we're less than. 949 00:55:02,600 --> 00:55:06,040 So and I think, yeah. 950 00:55:06,040 --> 00:55:11,680 It's cool because like when I don't know if anybody else knows the word exhort, because 951 00:55:11,680 --> 00:55:14,800 that's an interesting word. 952 00:55:14,800 --> 00:55:23,760 But the the Greek word for this is parakalesan, which parakalesan means support, comfort and 953 00:55:23,760 --> 00:55:28,960 aid or encourage or urging to be a part of something. 954 00:55:28,960 --> 00:55:36,360 So when it's talking to like Timothy about this and saying that this is how you want 955 00:55:36,360 --> 00:55:39,840 to do it first, he says rebuke. 956 00:55:39,840 --> 00:55:40,840 Right. 957 00:55:40,840 --> 00:55:44,680 And with rebuke, it means the scold chide or correct in that sense. 958 00:55:44,680 --> 00:55:51,000 Like, hey, this this says this, by the way, like this is what this says. 959 00:55:51,000 --> 00:55:52,000 That's it. 960 00:55:52,000 --> 00:56:00,120 It's not about you trying to like you're not specifically trying to be like, follow what 961 00:56:00,120 --> 00:56:01,120 I'm doing. 962 00:56:01,120 --> 00:56:02,200 I'm a leader. 963 00:56:02,200 --> 00:56:04,400 But you're just saying this is what the word says. 964 00:56:04,400 --> 00:56:13,120 And you're trying to encourage a correction or encourage people to be a part of it, to 965 00:56:13,120 --> 00:56:16,720 urging them to come into this and see what we're talking about. 966 00:56:16,720 --> 00:56:20,440 Like just someone saying like, you know, Jesus loves us. 967 00:56:20,440 --> 00:56:24,400 From three, 16 to 18, like that whole section right there. 968 00:56:24,400 --> 00:56:30,880 Like I urge people, if you're new, memorize all three verses, not just the one, because 969 00:56:30,880 --> 00:56:33,200 context is important. 970 00:56:33,200 --> 00:56:34,200 Context is key. 971 00:56:34,200 --> 00:56:35,200 Key. 972 00:56:35,200 --> 00:56:36,200 Yeah. 973 00:56:36,200 --> 00:56:37,200 Context is king. 974 00:56:37,200 --> 00:56:38,200 Let's be real. 975 00:56:38,200 --> 00:56:39,200 Fine. 976 00:56:39,200 --> 00:56:41,720 It's not key. 977 00:56:41,720 --> 00:56:44,360 It is key, though. 978 00:56:44,360 --> 00:56:47,840 You're right. 979 00:56:47,840 --> 00:56:48,840 Context is everything. 980 00:56:48,840 --> 00:56:50,840 It is. 981 00:56:50,840 --> 00:56:51,840 You know, we could. 982 00:56:51,840 --> 00:56:56,920 You could joke out of context and then all of a sudden you're not a very nice person 983 00:56:56,920 --> 00:56:59,920 and you're mean. 984 00:56:59,920 --> 00:57:01,880 Right. 985 00:57:01,880 --> 00:57:03,720 So OK, so let's let's. 986 00:57:03,720 --> 00:57:06,560 So another verse, Mark 16, 15. 987 00:57:06,560 --> 00:57:09,920 OK, I don't know if you know this verse. 988 00:57:09,920 --> 00:57:10,920 1615. 989 00:57:10,920 --> 00:57:11,920 Yeah. 990 00:57:11,920 --> 00:57:12,920 Mark. 991 00:57:12,920 --> 00:57:13,920 Mark. 992 00:57:13,920 --> 00:57:14,920 Mark. 993 00:57:14,920 --> 00:57:15,920 Mark. 994 00:57:15,920 --> 00:57:18,760 This is Jesus talking. 995 00:57:18,760 --> 00:57:19,760 Mark 16, 15. 996 00:57:19,760 --> 00:57:20,760 I'll let you pull it up. 997 00:57:20,760 --> 00:57:22,760 I it's a short verse. 998 00:57:22,760 --> 00:57:24,480 Yeah, it's a nice one to memorize. 999 00:57:24,480 --> 00:57:28,000 I'll let you pull it up because that's a good one. 1000 00:57:28,000 --> 00:57:29,000 Mark. 1001 00:57:29,000 --> 00:57:30,000 1738. 1002 00:57:30,000 --> 00:57:31,000 Say hello. 1003 00:57:31,000 --> 00:57:32,000 Mark 15, 16. 1004 00:57:32,000 --> 00:57:33,000 1615. 1005 00:57:33,000 --> 00:57:34,000 1615. 1006 00:57:34,000 --> 00:57:35,000 1615. 1007 00:57:35,000 --> 00:57:36,000 Yes. 1008 00:57:36,000 --> 00:57:37,000 1615. 1009 00:57:37,000 --> 00:57:38,000 1615. 1010 00:57:38,000 --> 00:57:39,000 1615. 1011 00:57:39,000 --> 00:57:40,000 1615. 1012 00:57:40,000 --> 00:57:41,000 1615. 1013 00:57:41,000 --> 00:57:42,000 1615. 1014 00:57:42,000 --> 00:57:43,000 1615. 1015 00:57:43,000 --> 00:57:44,000 1615. 1016 00:57:44,000 --> 00:57:45,000 1615. 1017 00:57:45,000 --> 00:57:46,000 1615. 1018 00:57:46,000 --> 00:57:47,000 1615. 1019 00:57:47,000 --> 00:57:48,000 1615. 1020 00:57:48,000 --> 00:57:49,000 OK, let's see. 1021 00:57:49,000 --> 00:57:50,000 Mm hmm. 1022 00:57:50,000 --> 00:57:51,000 Mm hmm. 1023 00:57:51,000 --> 00:57:52,000 Mm hmm. 1024 00:57:52,000 --> 00:57:53,000 It's a good read. 1025 00:57:53,000 --> 00:57:54,000 No. 1026 00:57:54,000 --> 00:57:55,000 OK. 1027 00:57:55,000 --> 00:58:00,000 But the title for this section is the Great Commission. 1028 00:58:00,000 --> 00:58:03,240 I'll go with 14 first. 1029 00:58:03,240 --> 00:58:05,280 Afterward he appeared to the eleven themselves. 1030 00:58:05,280 --> 00:58:06,280 Mm hmm. 1031 00:58:06,280 --> 00:58:09,280 Right after he has died. 1032 00:58:09,280 --> 00:58:10,280 Risen. 1033 00:58:10,280 --> 00:58:11,280 Right. 1034 00:58:11,280 --> 00:58:16,800 And they were reclining at the table. 1035 00:58:16,800 --> 00:58:22,200 He had rebuked them for their unbelief, hardness of heart, because they did not believe those 1036 00:58:22,200 --> 00:58:26,120 who saw him after he had risen. 1037 00:58:26,120 --> 00:58:30,120 He said to them, go into the world and proclaim the gospel to the whole creation. 1038 00:58:30,120 --> 00:58:33,120 Whoever believes in this. 1039 00:58:33,120 --> 00:58:35,320 Oh my gosh. 1040 00:58:35,320 --> 00:58:38,520 Whoever believes in his baptized will be saved. 1041 00:58:38,520 --> 00:58:42,560 Who is baptized will be saved. 1042 00:58:42,560 --> 00:58:45,520 Mm hmm. 1043 00:58:45,520 --> 00:58:49,040 We did talk about salvation and the same with that. 1044 00:58:49,040 --> 00:58:51,960 The word baptism is not believe will be condemned. 1045 00:58:51,960 --> 00:58:52,960 Mm hmm. 1046 00:58:52,960 --> 00:58:53,960 Mm hmm. 1047 00:58:53,960 --> 00:59:00,440 And I will mention that when it talking about baptism, Jesus later then proclaims about 1048 00:59:00,440 --> 00:59:02,720 baptism in the Holy Spirit. 1049 00:59:02,720 --> 00:59:03,720 Right. 1050 00:59:03,720 --> 00:59:04,720 Yep. 1051 00:59:04,720 --> 00:59:07,680 Because as I said before, accepting Christ isn't just a verbal like, oh, I accept Jesus 1052 00:59:07,680 --> 00:59:08,680 Christ. 1053 00:59:08,680 --> 00:59:09,680 Now I'm saved. 1054 00:59:09,680 --> 00:59:12,540 Like it's it's it's believing. 1055 00:59:12,540 --> 00:59:16,880 And you are gifted the Holy Spirit to show that you are accepting of him. 1056 00:59:16,880 --> 00:59:18,000 Like you believe him. 1057 00:59:18,000 --> 00:59:20,240 You accept him into your life. 1058 00:59:20,240 --> 00:59:22,160 You're gifted the Holy Spirit. 1059 00:59:22,160 --> 00:59:23,160 So there's a change. 1060 00:59:23,160 --> 00:59:24,760 You're reborn. 1061 00:59:24,760 --> 00:59:28,300 Most people like obviously in cartoons and stuff like that, like to make fun of it like 1062 00:59:28,300 --> 00:59:31,520 Hitler on his deathbed going, I believe in Jesus Christ. 1063 00:59:31,520 --> 00:59:32,520 Like oh, he died. 1064 00:59:32,520 --> 00:59:39,960 He went to heaven like, uh, it's it's not verbal confirmation like salvation, which 1065 00:59:39,960 --> 00:59:47,120 we did have an episode on salvation, but salvation is believing, confirming with your mouth and 1066 00:59:47,120 --> 00:59:52,920 you're baptized by the Holy Spirit, which is you're gifted the Holy Spirit and reborn. 1067 00:59:52,920 --> 00:59:56,240 So now you understand that the Holy Spirit. 1068 00:59:56,240 --> 00:59:57,240 Yeah. 1069 00:59:57,240 --> 01:00:03,480 Because Holy Spirit, you know, is showing you the first that show for can be so these 1070 01:00:03,480 --> 01:00:07,080 signs will accompany those who believe in the name of demons. 1071 01:00:07,080 --> 01:00:11,120 It was speaking tongues, they will pick up serfrence with their hands and they would 1072 01:00:11,120 --> 01:00:15,720 drink if they drink any deadly poison, it will not hurt them. 1073 01:00:15,720 --> 01:00:17,440 They will lay hands on the second. 1074 01:00:17,440 --> 01:00:18,440 They will recover. 1075 01:00:18,440 --> 01:00:19,440 Right. 1076 01:00:19,440 --> 01:00:26,560 They're just talking about your few do believe you do have it would be signs to show it. 1077 01:00:26,560 --> 01:00:29,240 It would just be empty acts. 1078 01:00:29,240 --> 01:00:32,000 It will have some meat to it. 1079 01:00:32,000 --> 01:00:33,000 Nice. 1080 01:00:33,000 --> 01:00:39,480 Yeah, it's cool here though. 1081 01:00:39,480 --> 01:00:45,040 In Mark 16 15, which is the verse that we were referencing here that we see that it 1082 01:00:45,040 --> 01:00:49,800 says go into the old world and preach the gospel to all creation. 1083 01:00:49,800 --> 01:00:54,400 And this is the great commission and the great commission. 1084 01:00:54,400 --> 01:00:58,080 You can even see it in Matthew 28 19 for Jesus. 1085 01:00:58,080 --> 01:01:01,960 And that verse says, go therefore make disciples of all the nation, baptizing them in the name 1086 01:01:01,960 --> 01:01:05,920 of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that commanded 1087 01:01:05,920 --> 01:01:10,200 you and behold, I am with you always to the end of age. 1088 01:01:10,200 --> 01:01:13,840 Which goes to say that Father, Son and the Holy Spirit and he's the son where people's 1089 01:01:13,840 --> 01:01:16,680 like Trinity's never mentioned there it is. 1090 01:01:16,680 --> 01:01:18,620 But it's one God. 1091 01:01:18,620 --> 01:01:19,620 We don't believe in three. 1092 01:01:19,620 --> 01:01:22,800 It's one God, but in three, three representations. 1093 01:01:22,800 --> 01:01:27,340 Yeah, represented as three. 1094 01:01:27,340 --> 01:01:32,900 So it's important to know that we are called this is our calling as all believers to go 1095 01:01:32,900 --> 01:01:35,400 out and proclaim the gospel. 1096 01:01:35,400 --> 01:01:41,640 This is the preaching element where we are sharing the gospel and proclaim is is like 1097 01:01:41,640 --> 01:01:46,920 shouting out what needs to be heard and the word that's used there for all is pass, which 1098 01:01:46,920 --> 01:01:48,400 that's the Greek word. 1099 01:01:48,400 --> 01:01:52,320 And that can mean each and every or creation. 1100 01:01:52,320 --> 01:01:57,160 Oh, that's like each and every one, like everything, anything and everything. 1101 01:01:57,160 --> 01:02:02,440 And then creation obviously is the word Greek word for. 1102 01:02:02,440 --> 01:02:08,280 This is I think it's this is and that can mean anything created. 1103 01:02:08,280 --> 01:02:19,640 This is and it's like it's KTIS, KTIS, IS this is it just means that we are to go out, 1104 01:02:19,640 --> 01:02:24,720 shout the gospel and share the gospel of Christ and who he is. 1105 01:02:24,720 --> 01:02:25,720 Jesus loves you. 1106 01:02:25,720 --> 01:02:27,480 You and me are sinners. 1107 01:02:27,480 --> 01:02:29,240 We fall short. 1108 01:02:29,240 --> 01:02:34,900 God saves us so we don't have to pay the price of death of sin, which is death. 1109 01:02:34,900 --> 01:02:39,240 So that's like all of our goals is to do that, to share that with everybody. 1110 01:02:39,240 --> 01:02:44,040 So that's important. 1111 01:02:44,040 --> 01:02:54,400 And this is good to know because it's consistent with the Bible talking about God will look 1112 01:02:54,400 --> 01:02:58,960 at us and judge us someday for everything we say and everything we do. 1113 01:02:58,960 --> 01:03:03,200 Romans 1412 even says that where it says, so then each one of us will give an account 1114 01:03:03,200 --> 01:03:04,840 of himself to God. 1115 01:03:04,840 --> 01:03:10,960 That means every word, every thought, every action, everything we've ever done do said 1116 01:03:10,960 --> 01:03:18,320 thought is all accountable to God and we present it to him before the throne. 1117 01:03:18,320 --> 01:03:27,800 And that's terrifying because we as humans do a lot of filth, a lot of crap and think 1118 01:03:27,800 --> 01:03:30,400 a lot of crap, even though we might not do it. 1119 01:03:30,400 --> 01:03:34,280 We think it and we're going to be accountable for all that. 1120 01:03:34,280 --> 01:03:36,240 So that's where Jesus is. 1121 01:03:36,240 --> 01:03:40,160 Position is, is that we accepted Christ that he covers that and gives it the Holy Spirit 1122 01:03:40,160 --> 01:03:42,800 to help live a life like Christ. 1123 01:03:42,800 --> 01:03:49,040 So we're preaching saying that we can never be enough to cover everything that we've done 1124 01:03:49,040 --> 01:03:52,360 thought or said, et cetera. 1125 01:03:52,360 --> 01:03:56,840 There's no redemption for us outside of Christ. 1126 01:03:56,840 --> 01:04:00,320 Christ is the savior, the one that we go to. 1127 01:04:00,320 --> 01:04:04,160 So we, everybody shares that message. 1128 01:04:04,160 --> 01:04:07,360 That is the message we all preach. 1129 01:04:07,360 --> 01:04:08,360 Teaching is different. 1130 01:04:08,360 --> 01:04:11,360 Like we said before, right? 1131 01:04:11,360 --> 01:04:18,040 Teaching is I'm trying to show you how to live that life by living it myself and helping 1132 01:04:18,040 --> 01:04:26,080 you understand how I am able to do this and how I get closer to God and what I do to pray, 1133 01:04:26,080 --> 01:04:27,880 read, and et cetera. 1134 01:04:27,880 --> 01:04:28,880 Right? 1135 01:04:28,880 --> 01:04:31,800 Like this is, that's the part where teaching comes into play. 1136 01:04:31,800 --> 01:04:33,000 Preaching is more along the lines. 1137 01:04:33,000 --> 01:04:39,960 Like I am sharing the gospel of Christ and I'm explicitly just sharing it as it is. 1138 01:04:39,960 --> 01:04:40,960 Right? 1139 01:04:40,960 --> 01:04:43,880 So that's why we should all read and understand what, who God is. 1140 01:04:43,880 --> 01:04:47,600 You have to be equipped. 1141 01:04:47,600 --> 01:04:54,360 You have to be equipped and ready because it is warfare, spiritual warfare out there. 1142 01:04:54,360 --> 01:04:59,760 You don't want yourself not to be equipped in order to save others because somebody might 1143 01:04:59,760 --> 01:05:08,600 just need to hear this very simple, you know, we see, accept, believe, confess. 1144 01:05:08,600 --> 01:05:12,200 And as Christians, we're called to do that. 1145 01:05:12,200 --> 01:05:18,000 And you don't want to miss out opportunities, especially if God, you hear God telling you, 1146 01:05:18,000 --> 01:05:23,640 Hey, that person sitting over there alone, they need to hear this right now because we 1147 01:05:23,640 --> 01:05:28,200 don't know what people are going through on a daily basis. 1148 01:05:28,200 --> 01:05:33,800 People might, you know, give the appearance that they're fine. 1149 01:05:33,800 --> 01:05:40,080 They might seem like everything together, but spiritually, mentally, they might be struggling. 1150 01:05:40,080 --> 01:05:41,080 Right. 1151 01:05:41,080 --> 01:05:44,360 I see it a lot. 1152 01:05:44,360 --> 01:05:49,680 I see a lot, you know, where the kids, you know, the funny, goofy kid at youth group. 1153 01:05:49,680 --> 01:05:52,920 I was one of those guys, you know, those kids. 1154 01:05:52,920 --> 01:06:02,960 Then, you know, I do a anonymous like box basically where the kids can write, you know, 1155 01:06:02,960 --> 01:06:03,960 a prayer request. 1156 01:06:03,960 --> 01:06:04,960 They don't want to share out loud. 1157 01:06:04,960 --> 01:06:09,040 I feel a lot of the time, you know, you have kids that are writing things like, you know, 1158 01:06:09,040 --> 01:06:15,960 talking about, it's like, I don't know where I had, if I would, my, where my beliefs are 1159 01:06:15,960 --> 01:06:18,720 at, I don't know if I know, is this real? 1160 01:06:18,720 --> 01:06:20,520 I'm feeling sad, depressed. 1161 01:06:20,520 --> 01:06:26,840 And it's like every single one of these, you know, kids and not just kids, but us has to 1162 01:06:26,840 --> 01:06:31,880 be equipped on a handle every situation that can be thrown us because this world is only 1163 01:06:31,880 --> 01:06:34,560 getting worse. 1164 01:06:34,560 --> 01:06:37,120 It's not getting more Christian friendly. 1165 01:06:37,120 --> 01:06:39,640 It's getting more, no. 1166 01:06:39,640 --> 01:06:43,600 Oh, you're a reliever. 1167 01:06:43,600 --> 01:06:45,480 Okay. 1168 01:06:45,480 --> 01:06:47,080 You can't talk anymore. 1169 01:06:47,080 --> 01:06:53,440 You're old school limiting what you can say automatically. 1170 01:06:53,440 --> 01:06:56,440 It's hate speech. 1171 01:06:56,440 --> 01:07:01,800 A lot of it can be classified as such nowadays, especially depending where you're at. 1172 01:07:01,800 --> 01:07:04,960 Which is sad. 1173 01:07:04,960 --> 01:07:11,920 Likely, you know, live here in the USA, where you're afraid of a speech. 1174 01:07:11,920 --> 01:07:12,920 Right. 1175 01:07:12,920 --> 01:07:19,320 But for now, there's a place to where as Christians, we are called to be peacemakers and you know, 1176 01:07:19,320 --> 01:07:25,400 we go, no, we got to know when saying something's not going to be productive, right? 1177 01:07:25,400 --> 01:07:29,960 Which we talked about a little bit earlier where it's that place of like, you know, if 1178 01:07:29,960 --> 01:07:35,720 someone comes, like if I go walking into like an LGBT parade or something and I'm just like, 1179 01:07:35,720 --> 01:07:37,120 Jesus loves you. 1180 01:07:37,120 --> 01:07:38,120 Turn and repent. 1181 01:07:38,120 --> 01:07:39,600 They're all going to look at me like this. 1182 01:07:39,600 --> 01:07:41,880 This guy is hateful. 1183 01:07:41,880 --> 01:07:43,120 That's not how you do that. 1184 01:07:43,120 --> 01:07:46,000 That's not that's not what we are called to do. 1185 01:07:46,000 --> 01:07:52,000 Now I have friends who are LGBT and I do talk to them and they know my stance and they know 1186 01:07:52,000 --> 01:07:57,440 how and why I believe it because they've asked and I and they know that and we still hang 1187 01:07:57,440 --> 01:08:03,880 out, we still have fun because they understand that like, like as a person, we're both people, 1188 01:08:03,880 --> 01:08:05,320 we both sin. 1189 01:08:05,320 --> 01:08:10,800 But just because I have the revelation of what sin is, be through the Holy Spirit doesn't 1190 01:08:10,800 --> 01:08:15,400 mean that I, I tear someone down because they don't have that yet. 1191 01:08:15,400 --> 01:08:18,400 I plan and I hope the Holy Spirit can convict them. 1192 01:08:18,400 --> 01:08:25,800 The biggest thing you can do right there is show them what it means to be Christ like 1193 01:08:25,800 --> 01:08:27,640 love on them. 1194 01:08:27,640 --> 01:08:28,680 Don't accept you. 1195 01:08:28,680 --> 01:08:30,640 You never have to accept their sin. 1196 01:08:30,640 --> 01:08:31,980 You shouldn't. 1197 01:08:31,980 --> 01:08:37,280 You don't have to compromise your morals and values for that. 1198 01:08:37,280 --> 01:08:42,160 I don't, I don't, I'm like, I'm not going to sit here and say, I agree with it. 1199 01:08:42,160 --> 01:08:45,720 But who am I? 1200 01:08:45,720 --> 01:08:51,800 No, you're like, oh, you're, you're a sinner. 1201 01:08:51,800 --> 01:08:53,180 You're wrong. 1202 01:08:53,180 --> 01:08:55,920 And you know, I have the log in my own eye. 1203 01:08:55,920 --> 01:08:58,240 Well, we are not called to convict. 1204 01:08:58,240 --> 01:08:59,600 Yeah, exactly. 1205 01:08:59,600 --> 01:09:00,600 That's not our job. 1206 01:09:00,600 --> 01:09:04,960 And I know that I've always, you know, I have a hard time because there's times where I'm 1207 01:09:04,960 --> 01:09:08,680 like, well, no, I'm like, you know, I don't like them there. 1208 01:09:08,680 --> 01:09:10,320 You know, they were like this to me. 1209 01:09:10,320 --> 01:09:11,680 Rammer, man. 1210 01:09:11,680 --> 01:09:19,200 Oh, and you know, as I get older, I know I have to have more patience and it's, it's 1211 01:09:19,200 --> 01:09:22,920 always easier to have patience with people that you agree with the line. 1212 01:09:22,920 --> 01:09:23,920 For sure. 1213 01:09:23,920 --> 01:09:26,680 It's a lot harder when people you disagree with them. 1214 01:09:26,680 --> 01:09:30,360 But wasn't that, wasn't that the verse that we just read? 1215 01:09:30,360 --> 01:09:31,360 It said not in season. 1216 01:09:31,360 --> 01:09:32,840 It might be awkward. 1217 01:09:32,840 --> 01:09:33,840 Yes. 1218 01:09:33,840 --> 01:09:39,120 And that's the part, um, to tie back to you, but Jason just cut me off. 1219 01:09:39,120 --> 01:09:40,120 Whatever. 1220 01:09:40,120 --> 01:09:41,120 I'm sorry. 1221 01:09:41,120 --> 01:09:42,120 No, you're not. 1222 01:09:42,120 --> 01:09:43,120 I'm just joking. 1223 01:09:43,120 --> 01:09:51,360 Um, but no, and it's just the truth of the matter is that, oh, with society and the way 1224 01:09:51,360 --> 01:10:02,920 things go, um, our opinion is seen sometimes more is, um, not the cool thing, not the mainstream 1225 01:10:02,920 --> 01:10:03,920 thing. 1226 01:10:03,920 --> 01:10:13,760 So I've had a fun time like in college when I was basically bullied for my faith, um, every 1227 01:10:13,760 --> 01:10:16,880 single day, which made it fun. 1228 01:10:16,880 --> 01:10:19,480 It's like, you know, it's called the have that. 1229 01:10:19,480 --> 01:10:25,520 And I think that's where I think I got a little more hard and people when they do that to 1230 01:10:25,520 --> 01:10:31,080 me and I think like, you know, I, but I also did learn to defend my faith more. 1231 01:10:31,080 --> 01:10:32,080 Yeah. 1232 01:10:32,080 --> 01:10:36,040 Which strengthened me too, but I could still learn from that. 1233 01:10:36,040 --> 01:10:41,120 So, um, and I mean, I'm in, I'm in leadership with nowhere perfect. 1234 01:10:41,120 --> 01:10:48,640 Um, I think, um, for the whole topic, cause I'm going to, I'm going to wrap it up. 1235 01:10:48,640 --> 01:10:56,160 Cause I have to keep rambling and we both do consistently do that where we can go on 1236 01:10:56,160 --> 01:11:03,320 for hours rambled and I'm coming soon. 1237 01:11:03,320 --> 01:11:10,400 I I'll finish off with this couple of verses and then we're going to wrap this up. 1238 01:11:10,400 --> 01:11:13,720 Um, Galatians six, read the whole chapter. 1239 01:11:13,720 --> 01:11:16,240 It's it's also known as like Galatians in itself. 1240 01:11:16,240 --> 01:11:22,320 It's also known as the short Romans, but, uh, Galatians chapter six, uh, verse four 1241 01:11:22,320 --> 01:11:25,440 and five, let each person examine his own work. 1242 01:11:25,440 --> 01:11:29,600 And then he can take pride in himself alone and not compare himself with someone else 1243 01:11:29,600 --> 01:11:32,800 for each person will have to carry his own load. 1244 01:11:32,800 --> 01:11:40,520 Um, I will say a couple of verses before it does talk about, um, actually carry that you 1245 01:11:40,520 --> 01:11:43,080 won't be tempted, carry one another's burdens in this way. 1246 01:11:43,080 --> 01:11:44,560 You will fulfill the law of Christ. 1247 01:11:44,560 --> 01:11:51,600 So read the whole book, but in this specifically, the only reason why I'm sharing this is because 1248 01:11:51,600 --> 01:11:56,440 he Paul's encouraging Christians to take a careful stock of the work that they do in 1249 01:11:56,440 --> 01:11:59,220 the spirit without comparing themselves to each other. 1250 01:11:59,220 --> 01:12:04,040 We should be honest with ourselves and take full responsibility to what is ours to do 1251 01:12:04,040 --> 01:12:05,320 in the following to Christ. 1252 01:12:05,320 --> 01:12:09,760 One of those responsibilities is to share the good things that God gives up to us with 1253 01:12:09,760 --> 01:12:14,600 those who teach us the word in Galatians six, like three to five. 1254 01:12:14,600 --> 01:12:16,340 That's the whole section there. 1255 01:12:16,340 --> 01:12:24,400 So with this and all of this, if, if you're going for teaching and know that it comes 1256 01:12:24,400 --> 01:12:30,800 with a weight, there's not just starts talking and you're good to teach teaching is leading 1257 01:12:30,800 --> 01:12:32,800 teaching an example. 1258 01:12:32,800 --> 01:12:34,840 I wish it was that easy. 1259 01:12:34,840 --> 01:12:35,840 Right. 1260 01:12:35,840 --> 01:12:41,280 So teaching is sharing the good news of the gospel and who God is and who Jesus is to 1261 01:12:41,280 --> 01:12:46,520 us and how he saved you, how he saved me and that revelation that was given to us through 1262 01:12:46,520 --> 01:12:48,120 the Holy Spirit. 1263 01:12:48,120 --> 01:12:49,580 That is preaching. 1264 01:12:49,580 --> 01:12:56,200 So when you come in to someone, just know that there's a difference and know that as 1265 01:12:56,200 --> 01:13:02,280 a teacher, your goal is to help instruct when preaching, your goal is to help encourage 1266 01:13:02,280 --> 01:13:03,840 to be a part. 1267 01:13:03,840 --> 01:13:11,160 So with that, I'm going to finish this episode because we did run it a little long, but that's 1268 01:13:11,160 --> 01:13:12,160 OK. 1269 01:13:12,160 --> 01:13:14,680 It's a shocker. 1270 01:13:14,680 --> 01:13:16,240 That's not us at all. 1271 01:13:16,240 --> 01:13:18,440 Yeah, that's going over. 1272 01:13:18,440 --> 01:13:20,000 Come on. 1273
