1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:04,280 Welcome to the gospel truth project. I'm actually here with Dylan 2 00:00:05,280 --> 00:00:11,440 Hi, and then I'm Jason. We are starting this podcast actually to 3 00:00:12,960 --> 00:00:19,480 Help bring light to subjects and help discuss and talk maybe we'll even have people on here who may 4 00:00:20,640 --> 00:00:29,000 Be like pastors or they may be just normal people that have opinions or people who aren't Christian who are Christian who believe differently 5 00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:32,640 the idea is that we can sit down talk and discuss and 6 00:00:33,600 --> 00:00:35,600 civilly and 7 00:00:35,640 --> 00:00:39,760 Just kind of get better ideas and hopefully grow together. That's kind of the idea here, right? 8 00:00:40,360 --> 00:00:42,360 Yeah, yeah, that's totally 9 00:00:42,440 --> 00:00:49,440 The idea that we're going with here. Just want to open up some dialect and talk about well the gospel 10 00:00:50,600 --> 00:00:57,320 Exactly, I feel like nowadays the gospel is kind of construed it a little bit like just a little tainted because I 11 00:00:57,320 --> 00:01:00,600 Know I made up the word construed it, but you know 12 00:01:02,040 --> 00:01:04,040 You know 13 00:01:05,160 --> 00:01:11,740 Yeah, I'll say tainted. I'll say they're always adding stuff anyways to the right. I would use the word 14 00:01:12,760 --> 00:01:18,840 Because I would say the gospel is like kind of tainted nowadays because we have like this very self-centered 15 00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:21,920 Gospel kind of going around where it's all about me me me I I 16 00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:29,280 I I I rather than the true purpose is all focus on him. So 17 00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:35,360 Yep, I think this this whole podcast is literally just going to be talking about 18 00:01:36,800 --> 00:01:37,920 that 19 00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:40,640 Um, even our first episode which isn't today 20 00:01:40,720 --> 00:01:45,920 We're we're going to record the first episode later, but that one's going to be called prosperity gospel 21 00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:52,960 Is it real and we'll have questions there that we answer talk about bring up biblical aspects what people are saying about it 22 00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:55,600 What the bible actually says about it? 23 00:01:56,320 --> 00:02:01,440 Obviously since it's prosperity gospel that means people are saying that they're christian and using bible for that belief 24 00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:04,960 and we'll go into a little bit more depth of what they're talking about and 25 00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:06,560 um 26 00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:12,240 Is it in context because I think that's the most important thing that we're missing nowadays is whether things are in context for 27 00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:17,520 Um, the the time and what was being said and who was it being said to because 28 00:02:18,160 --> 00:02:20,160 You got two very different 29 00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:22,240 aspects of the bible where it's talking to 30 00:02:22,880 --> 00:02:23,680 um 31 00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:28,800 God's talking to his people chosen people to israelites and then talking to the adopted kingdom 32 00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:34,720 Which is the gentiles or anybody outside of that is adopted into the kingdom of god through jesus christ 33 00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:35,520 so 34 00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:37,520 There's a couple differences that we 35 00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:44,640 Think that people overlook because it doesn't fit their narrative. I so to speak 100 percent. I yeah 36 00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:47,360 You see there's a lot of different 37 00:02:47,920 --> 00:02:49,920 Versions out there are well different churches 38 00:02:50,640 --> 00:02:52,640 separation because of just 39 00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:56,080 It could be simple things. It could be complex things and uh 40 00:02:57,200 --> 00:03:02,480 um, just yeah, I see that a lot um, especially in my line of work, uh a ministry 41 00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:08,800 It's just uh, I've seen you know people leave churches because you know, well, I don't like to worship 42 00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:13,360 Or I don't agree with certain things and you know, I think there's definitely uh 43 00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:17,520 somewhat of a division uh with church and 44 00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:24,000 Or just believers in a sense just where it's definitely that you were saying that whole me me me 45 00:03:24,640 --> 00:03:30,880 All about me thing. Um, right, so I'll be I'm looking forward to actually dive into this and uh 46 00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:32,480 Uh 47 00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:38,880 Yeah talking more about this. Yeah, I think it could think it'd be cool and good. I was trying to say both at the same time. Um 48 00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:41,760 Speak one other word. That's all you got to do exactly 49 00:03:43,360 --> 00:03:48,160 So, uh, introduce yourself a little bit. What's your background?

That's okay. I'm not saying that's not 230 00:16:41,520 --> 00:16:44,000 This is just giving an opportunity to have 231 00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:50,560 That community 24 7 rather than just once a week and actually help which is needed 232 00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:52,640 Right.

Yeah 293 00:20:57,280 --> 00:21:01,840 I think um, I think it was like Hebrews 10 24 to 25 294 00:21:01,840 --> 00:21:03,840 I think that's what it was 295 00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:08,560 Uh where it's like, you know, I'm pretty I'm pretty dang sure I'm correct 296 00:21:08,560 --> 00:21:15,600 But Hebrews 10 24 to 25 is and let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works 297 00:21:15,920 --> 00:21:17,920 Not neglecting to meet together 298 00:21:18,320 --> 00:21:25,680 um as is the habit of some but encouraging one another and all the more days you'll see drawing near and um 299 00:21:25,680 --> 00:21:31,280 That that kind of sets the premise of you you get together not to just 300 00:21:32,240 --> 00:21:33,520 meet 301 00:21:33,520 --> 00:21:34,640 but like 302 00:21:34,640 --> 00:21:38,880 Getting the habit of encouraging like one another because we have a tendency to 303 00:21:39,520 --> 00:21:44,160 tear each other down because it's fun and uh, that's you know within reason 304 00:21:44,240 --> 00:21:48,160 But there's got to be a point to where we're encouraging each other to be better than what we were before 305 00:21:48,640 --> 00:21:54,160 And helping each other grow because that's a lot more healthy relationship than just beat down every day 306 00:21:54,160 --> 00:21:58,720 Yeah, well, it's like, you know, you probably know the verses um 307 00:21:59,680 --> 00:22:01,680 With iron sharpening iron 308 00:22:03,120 --> 00:22:06,720 Um, yeah, that one is Proverbs 27 17 309 00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:10,160 Oh, see what a pk. I love it 310 00:22:11,200 --> 00:22:15,040 I wish you know, I I try to remember scripture. That's not my forte 311 00:22:15,840 --> 00:22:20,080 Um, but you know, that's why God is giving me you as my friend 312 00:22:20,640 --> 00:22:22,640 I 313 00:22:22,640 --> 00:22:24,640 It's great. I I 314 00:22:24,640 --> 00:22:27,760 The whole verse is iron sharpens iron and one man sharpens to face 315 00:22:28,880 --> 00:22:30,880 his neighbor 316 00:22:31,280 --> 00:22:38,000 It's a positive thing. It's just like hey, we the neighbor idea is like the person next to you the person close to you 317 00:22:38,560 --> 00:22:43,280 Um, and you help them. That's the idea like you help them grow 318 00:22:43,760 --> 00:22:48,160 So that's yeah coming back to the same point that I was talking about too. It's exactly it 319 00:22:48,160 --> 00:22:52,320 I know it's almost like I knew what I was talking about for a second 320 00:22:55,120 --> 00:22:59,280 Right, right. Yeah, um, there's even like, um 321 00:23:01,360 --> 00:23:06,000 Try to remember because yeah, there's a lot of bible verses that we obviously can keep going into 322 00:23:06,480 --> 00:23:08,880 um, but we I did have like 323 00:23:09,680 --> 00:23:16,000 15 16 different podcasts lined up and some of them are really cool like just kind of fun stuff like 324 00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:21,840 Talking about the perfect christian life. What it looks like and and not me 325 00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:24,400 What it's not uh 326 00:23:25,040 --> 00:23:32,960 Yeah, I'm like don't look to your leaders for for whatever that is. Uh, right or the perfect christian. Yeah, don't don't look at your leaders 327 00:23:33,600 --> 00:23:35,760 We are humans. We have faults 328 00:23:36,640 --> 00:23:38,080 um 329 00:23:38,080 --> 00:23:41,440 So that's the whole podcast for that right there. I got it solved 330 00:23:42,080 --> 00:23:43,200 we are 331 00:23:43,200 --> 00:23:49,680 Yeah, so like we like that's one of the top six. I got another topic called like the americanized gospel 332 00:23:49,840 --> 00:23:54,400 I got another one said the purpose of life bible on you. What's it say about you? 333 00:23:55,040 --> 00:23:59,520 Um pessimistic versus optimistic perspective. What does the bible talk about that? 334 00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:02,960 What is church does science go against god? 335 00:24:03,600 --> 00:24:05,600 What are mainstream christians not loving? 336 00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:10,000 Um, you know, what is the holy spirit is the bible accurate? 337 00:24:10,640 --> 00:24:12,160 um 338 00:24:12,160 --> 00:24:19,120 This is that good stuff right here. Yeah, wool. I'm definitely get I'm definitely gonna be tuned in. I mean gosh 339 00:24:19,120 --> 00:24:24,960 I'm already hooked.
