00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:11,400
Welcome to the Gospel Truth Project Podcast. In this episode, we talk about, Is This Sin?

2
00:00:11,400 --> 00:00:12,400
Enjoy.

3
00:00:12,400 --> 00:00:16,320
Welcome. Hey Dylan, how's it going?

4
00:00:16,320 --> 00:00:21,360
Good, Jason, how are you doing?

5
00:00:21,360 --> 00:00:26,640
You know, I'm doing pretty good. I actually went to California and saw you, so that was

6
00:00:26,640 --> 00:00:27,640
a good start.

7
00:00:27,640 --> 00:00:31,240
Yeah, that was pretty awesome.

8
00:00:31,240 --> 00:00:35,920
I ended up buying a Dyson vacuum over there from Costco.

9
00:00:35,920 --> 00:00:39,200
Oh, good old Costco, yeah.

10
00:00:39,200 --> 00:00:41,480
I didn't know vacuums could be so awesome.

11
00:00:41,480 --> 00:00:45,720
Yeah, I heard the Dyson really sucks.

12
00:00:45,720 --> 00:00:46,720
They really suck.

13
00:00:46,720 --> 00:00:47,720
Get it?

14
00:00:47,720 --> 00:00:48,720
Oh, it's fantastic.

15
00:00:48,720 --> 00:00:51,640
Oh my gosh, such a bad joke.

16
00:00:51,640 --> 00:00:54,800
Such a bad joke.

17
00:00:54,800 --> 00:00:57,840
So do you know what we're talking about today?

18
00:00:57,840 --> 00:01:03,920
Oh, well, you, as you told me earlier, no, I have no idea. You said we don't know. We're

19
00:01:03,920 --> 00:01:07,120
just going to figure it out. I don't know.

20
00:01:07,120 --> 00:01:12,440
Okay, so I kind of wanted to be that way because usually we have prep, we have notes, we have

21
00:01:12,440 --> 00:01:18,040
like, paper says like, hey, this is kind of like the outline of what the whole podcast

22
00:01:18,040 --> 00:01:23,720
is going to be. But today is starting the episode of the first in a series that we're

23
00:01:23,720 --> 00:01:28,760
going to be doing. And I wanted to be a little bit different. So I'm hoping that you follow

24
00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:32,200
along as well.

25
00:01:32,200 --> 00:01:39,080
But so here's the thing. You and me both get up to a point where people ask us questions

26
00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:44,200
outside of our house, like outside of the church or inside the church, one of the two.

27
00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:49,460
But you and me both are in a place to where we get questions by people asking us faith

28
00:01:49,460 --> 00:01:55,000
based questions or biblical questions or just theology questions in general, right?

29
00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:56,640
Oh, yeah.

30
00:01:56,640 --> 00:01:57,640
All the time.

31
00:01:57,640 --> 00:02:04,760
Especially with kids like you know, they have lots of questions eager to learn. So right.

32
00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:08,520
And even you know, among peers to discussion and discourse.

33
00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:14,440
Right? Yeah, exactly. Like you and me will discuss stuff and go back and forth. And,

34
00:02:14,440 --> 00:02:18,240
you know, I have other friends that do the same thing where they'll reach out and say,

35
00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:22,920
hey, someone was asking me this. I don't know how to answer. So I came to you because you

36
00:02:22,920 --> 00:02:31,960
usually blah, blah, blah. So this episode is going to be called Is It Sin? I don't know

37
00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:37,040
if it's going to be like volume one or episode one or part one or something like that. But

38
00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:44,360
the whole premise of this is I've been I collected questions, probably like a close to 100 questions

39
00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:51,080
that we can go through over episodes. And the questions are from people who legitimately

40
00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:58,920
had questions about faith, theology, God, the Bible, authenticity, like all this stuff.

41
00:02:58,920 --> 00:03:05,840
And I took four questions each episode for these parts series. And we just get to like

42
00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:10,280
discuss them, talk about them based on the knowledge that we have. Obviously, we could

43
00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:17,320
pull up scripture to help us out because we don't want to want to paraphrase.

44
00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:25,400
This should be interesting because we we too tend to have a lot of discussion on well,

45
00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:30,800
stuff like this too. So it might it might get a little I know I might get a little interesting.

46
00:03:30,800 --> 00:03:35,000
I think it'd be fun. Yeah,

47
00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:44,800
I literally someone that I known for a while who believes in God and says they're Christian

48
00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:48,440
said something to me the other day. I won't say on which platform because I'm going to

49
00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:54,080
make it very broad. But they reached out to me the other day thinking that they had something

50
00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:58,720
that I would agree with. And they sent it to me like, Can you believe this? And I was

51
00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:04,840
like, What's your point? And we literally went back and forth. And the funny thing was

52
00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:12,660
is that when I was presenting my conviction for what they were sharing, I used verses

53
00:04:12,660 --> 00:04:18,360
and pretty much only verses like I would say, Bible says this and then I'd have like 15

54
00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:24,560
verses afterwards or chapters to read my and you can see cross reference with this specifically

55
00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:31,960
in this situation this and I was using Bible verses that person came back to me basically

56
00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:39,160
saying I was wrong and only shared two verses to prove me wrong. And it's like, you know,

57
00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:44,840
if the majority of the Bible is is pushing this one way and then you take a verse or

58
00:04:44,840 --> 00:04:50,400
two out of context of what it was talking about and use that as your foundation, you

59
00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:58,560
might need to rework your foundation. That's, that's what it came down to. So yeah. Yeah,

60
00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:04,000
it's fun. Definitely. Definitely agree with that. And that's where that's where you and

61
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:09,240
me can discuss like, you know, like you me, if we disagree on something, I'm more than

62
00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:17,320
happy to hear you listen to what your opinions are or what why you believe what you believe.

63
00:05:17,320 --> 00:05:22,560
And I'd hope the same for you to me that if I believe something differently, we can sit

64
00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:28,480
down and discuss why because if I'm just like, I don't know why I don't really have a reason

65
00:05:28,480 --> 00:05:38,440
then I need to change. That's it. Yeah, I mean, yeah, I mean, you have to have reason

66
00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:43,360
even if I have reason I mean, this sounds like me stubborn. Definitely we've had discussion.

67
00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:48,200
So we'll see. And then you always like, well, then there's a verse on this and how you're

68
00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:55,000
feeling. I'm like, don't make girls feel that maybe I want to be right doing it. And I mean,

69
00:05:55,000 --> 00:05:59,680
I think that's a lot of problems is you have to learn how to humble yourself at certain

70
00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:08,520
points. I definitely have that accountability here with Jason, which is, which is good because

71
00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:16,200
you know, like I said before, accountability is key. growing in your faith. And also, I

72
00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:22,440
mean, yeah, there's definitely it's gonna be interesting to see where the questions

73
00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:31,440
are to this week and to see what we get out of this. Yeah, go for it. I was before you

74
00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:38,120
started I say you want to open us up. Do you want to open this up in prayer? Yeah, sure.

75
00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:43,320
Short, sweet and to the point. God, thank you for today that we are able to gather together

76
00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:49,220
after a few weeks now of taking a break. I just pray for your Holy Spirit to guide us

77
00:06:49,220 --> 00:06:57,080
that you reveal to us your truth through your word, that we stay on your topics and of your

78
00:06:57,080 --> 00:07:03,680
truth, God, that with this that we do not bring our own understanding of what the word

79
00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:10,680
is, but just what the word says, because you speak clearly and decisively. And we thank

80
00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:18,680
you for your word and the ability to do this every day. Amen. Amen. Yeah, that was good.

81
00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:25,120
So just, I just want to say one more thing before we start. Sorry that we have not been

82
00:07:25,120 --> 00:07:32,000
recording. It's been kind of a crazy like hit and miss and trying to work out when Jason's

83
00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:37,200
not working when I'm not working. So if we will do a lot out of schedule that should

84
00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:43,600
work better now so they can be more consistent for everyone. Also, another thing to also

85
00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:50,840
again these when we're talking about this, we are talking about sin. We are not wish

86
00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:56,200
you're not trying to say that you we don't love you. We don't create care for you guys

87
00:07:56,200 --> 00:08:01,280
if it is something you struggle with. But it is just it's just what the word says with

88
00:08:01,280 --> 00:08:08,880
the but the living word of God says. And we don't mean anything to be hateful or anything.

89
00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:15,960
We are just simply stating what the word says and what we believe.

90
00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:23,040
I think what we try to do here is simply put in Second Timothy 316, like we talked about

91
00:08:23,040 --> 00:08:28,400
before, is that all scripture is breed that by God and profitable for teaching, reproof

92
00:08:28,400 --> 00:08:33,240
and correction and for training and righteousness. And that's basically what we want to do is

93
00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:38,180
when we see these questions, these topics and these things that pop up from other people

94
00:08:38,180 --> 00:08:42,440
asking, we want to be able to step in and say, well, that's a great question. Let's

95
00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:47,440
talk about it in a biblical sense and see what this looks like. And that's what we're

96
00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:54,440
doing. So yeah, so I got you ready for the first question?

97
00:08:54,440 --> 00:09:00,680
Yeah, of course, always. So the first question that I actually got

98
00:09:00,680 --> 00:09:10,400
literally two weeks ago from someone on TikTok actually, DM my profile was like, hey, you

99
00:09:10,400 --> 00:09:18,680
seem to post Bible stuff. I was curious because I don't know this one. They asked is sarcasm

100
00:09:18,680 --> 00:09:40,680
a sin? I was like, this is a good question. That is a good question. Because I mean, so

101
00:09:40,680 --> 00:09:50,360
right off the bat, it's easy to say it can be because it's not. It's a negative thing.

102
00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:58,520
Like usually sarcasm is like bewildering someone or like demoting them in your perspective,

103
00:09:58,520 --> 00:10:03,520
I guess is the best way I could think of it, where you're tearing them down because of

104
00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:12,720
something they said. Like Ephesians, what was it? 429 says, don't let no corruption

105
00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:17,800
or not corrupting talk come out of your mouth, but only such as good for building up as fits

106
00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:22,960
the occasion that it may give grace to those who hear. Right. And that's how all our talk

107
00:10:22,960 --> 00:10:28,080
is supposed to be, which is something right there where I'm like, well, biblically, we're

108
00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:35,200
looking at it from a few different places that talk about like filtering what we say

109
00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:45,600
and how we say it. Wasn't it Matthew 537? Yes, it is. I pulled up. Oh, really? Yeah,

110
00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:50,800
you read it. Yeah, I'm pretty sure that was what it was. Jesus was abrupt. Why all this

111
00:10:50,800 --> 00:10:58,760
bit of the this busy body grief and gossip. This child isn't dead. She's sleeping, provokes

112
00:10:58,760 --> 00:11:08,560
sarcasm. So that's he's using sarcasm there. They told him Jesus. Which translation are

113
00:11:08,560 --> 00:11:16,400
you reading? Message. Oh, message. OK, so yeah, I don't I don't want that one. The only

114
00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:19,840
thing I want to mention before we start getting into translations because I'm really picky

115
00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:24,560
about it. There's like I've talked about it before when we talked about Bible. There's

116
00:11:24,560 --> 00:11:31,880
word for word. There's thought for thought. And then there's paraphrasing. And when you

117
00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:37,640
get to word for word, you're looking at Bibles like translations are like L.E.B., N.S.A.B.,

118
00:11:37,640 --> 00:11:45,440
M.E.V. and amplified. Those are all word for word. King James, New King James, ESV are

119
00:11:45,440 --> 00:11:50,720
all kind of leaning more thought for thought, but still word for word for the most part.

120
00:11:50,720 --> 00:11:59,840
Paraphrasing. You see a lot of that with like the Living Bible or the message or the voice

121
00:11:59,840 --> 00:12:05,800
where they paraphrase verses to help people understand kind of what was supposed to like

122
00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:12,040
kind of the feeling of what was supposed to be said. And you don't want to base everything

123
00:12:12,040 --> 00:12:18,360
you read off of paraphrased translations because it's just to try to help you build the concept

124
00:12:18,360 --> 00:12:23,640
of what's going on. Because sometimes when you start reading amplified or L.E.B. Bible

125
00:12:23,640 --> 00:12:29,000
and you start seeing it where it's like you're reading it and it's just like that was the

126
00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:38,640
south fricking something it says it can get to you. Yeah. No, I just I downloaded the

127
00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:45,480
new new Bible app. I believe it's what is it? Terracotta. Oh, OK. Yeah, it's really

128
00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:54,360
cool. But I guess you to treat it. You can look up to different Bible verses at the same

129
00:12:54,360 --> 00:13:02,560
time in different different books like New King James and New Living Translation. But

130
00:13:02,560 --> 00:13:09,120
the message went on there for some reason. So I was trying to read that and did not look

131
00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:13,680
as the same thing. Because if you go to like work your word, Matthew five thirty seven

132
00:13:13,680 --> 00:13:19,800
is let what you say be simple. Yes or no. Anything more than this is come from evil.

133
00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:24,080
So if you're like sarcastically saying yeah and you actually mean no that right there

134
00:13:24,080 --> 00:13:34,320
is straight up against that verse. Yes. That's yeah. So I have it now but it doesn't matter

135
00:13:34,320 --> 00:13:45,000
because that's that's biblically I'd say sarcasm can be a sin because you're going

136
00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:53,200
against directly what you're instructed to do. And yes also I feel like it's also to

137
00:13:53,200 --> 00:14:04,160
do with the intention of the heart or sarcasm. I mean if you're like if you're just. It's

138
00:14:04,160 --> 00:14:11,400
different if you're being playful. There's and in like but if you're doing I feel like

139
00:14:11,400 --> 00:14:16,480
if there's an attitude and disrespect on this though it also talks about you know respecting

140
00:14:16,480 --> 00:14:23,160
one another that your elders and you know like if I'm messing with you like oh you read

141
00:14:23,160 --> 00:14:29,520
your Bible oh yeah yeah you read your Bible every day. Like if they can be like disrespectful

142
00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:37,200
so you really it's be yeah or be a little sorry. I said be really.

143
00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:51,520
Okay. I haven't finished my drink yet. Oh that's probably why.

144
00:14:51,520 --> 00:14:55,240
Fusion's five talks about this kind of stuff a lot where it's like but there'd be no filthiness

145
00:14:55,240 --> 00:15:00,800
nor foolish talk nor crude joking which are out of place but instead let there be Thanksgiving

146
00:15:00,800 --> 00:15:07,120
and I think that out of place is kind of the point that you're making is that like you

147
00:15:07,120 --> 00:15:11,200
got to be able to understand what's going on like you and me will sarcastically mess

148
00:15:11,200 --> 00:15:16,560
with each other but it's out of love. Like I'm not doing it to belittle you or to make

149
00:15:16,560 --> 00:15:22,360
you feel bad. I'm doing it because we just like to play around with each other and obviously

150
00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:26,680
if someone else is nearby I'll be a little bit more careful because they might not see

151
00:15:26,680 --> 00:15:31,160
it that way and I don't want them to feel belittled or something because I'm doing it

152
00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:32,160
to you.

153
00:15:32,160 --> 00:15:37,680
So and that turns into like whoa I should hear the way he talked to him. It's you know

154
00:15:37,680 --> 00:15:42,080
and I think that's also it goes into it because then it turns into like well did you hear

155
00:15:42,080 --> 00:15:48,720
the way Jason was talking to Dylan like he was very disrespectful because anybody outside

156
00:15:48,720 --> 00:15:56,420
can see it as different and interpret it differently as well so you have to be you know kind and

157
00:15:56,420 --> 00:16:05,480
loving with your words. Yeah. Which is you know that's also something we're told to do.

158
00:16:05,480 --> 00:16:12,360
Yeah. Oh this was a good question though because you know it's it's something that's not just

159
00:16:12,360 --> 00:16:21,340
a simple like oh yeah don't do that. No like generally I would say it is a sin generally

160
00:16:21,340 --> 00:16:25,900
and you can see where it talks about this kind of stuff it says in in the right place

161
00:16:25,900 --> 00:16:32,720
right. It talks about this specifically because you know I can talk to you differently than

162
00:16:32,720 --> 00:16:38,680
I talk to my boss because it's a different situation it's a different feel right. What.

163
00:16:38,680 --> 00:16:50,040
No way. Right. See what's like right there that example I feel like I is that sin. Is

164
00:16:50,040 --> 00:16:59,480
it though. I feel like in that sense it's not like no really like oh like as is being

165
00:16:59,480 --> 00:17:06,440
playful but like if it's if it's not like a lie like you're saying or saying oh you

166
00:17:06,440 --> 00:17:13,440
knew that oh yeah I totally did that's still see that's lying. Right right. And there's

167
00:17:13,440 --> 00:17:20,920
a difference in it like in that way in the aspect of how I see it with you. Right. It's

168
00:17:20,920 --> 00:17:27,240
more is yes I mean that's what I think it's kind of yeah you know I'm like well I think

169
00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:35,700
that way I don't really see that as a sin I think it's just you know poke making fun.

170
00:17:35,700 --> 00:17:45,520
I think it's I think the tongue we have to be careful with what we say. And this is the

171
00:17:45,520 --> 00:17:52,040
tongue the tongue is like a two edged sword or something like that. Yeah and you see that

172
00:17:52,040 --> 00:17:57,480
a lot like in Proverbs when it talks about that kind of stuff like Proverbs 12 18 there's

173
00:17:57,480 --> 00:18:03,760
one who rash words are like sword thrusts but the tongue of the wise brings healing.

174
00:18:03,760 --> 00:18:08,560
There's stuff like that a lot where it talks about watching what we say and when we say

175
00:18:08,560 --> 00:18:13,920
it because I can say something to Dylan that's you know I can say something to you that's

176
00:18:13,920 --> 00:18:18,960
very forward and we can mess around that way because that's what we that's our relationship

177
00:18:18,960 --> 00:18:23,880
but we know it's out of love. And then there's ways that if I did that to anybody else it'd

178
00:18:23,880 --> 00:18:33,200
be like man this guy is rude. Yeah. Even the sense of like say like it's things happen

179
00:18:33,200 --> 00:18:38,400
where we're messing around. I think your wife's like Jason you can't talk to Dylan like that

180
00:18:38,400 --> 00:18:42,880
and it's like oh no no no. Like it was this for messing. I just was just playing around

181
00:18:42,880 --> 00:18:49,960
because you know. Yeah. I got to make sure though that I'm bringing you up like I'm speaking

182
00:18:49,960 --> 00:18:54,120
like to you obviously and that's something that I want to continue to do. But we play

183
00:18:54,120 --> 00:18:58,200
around and we know that we're not tearing each other down. Yeah. I'm not going out of

184
00:18:58,200 --> 00:19:03,120
my way to say wow you're stupid. Like that I don't really want you just to tell me.

185
00:19:03,120 --> 00:19:13,840
Don't you're being stupid. Or I'd say that that was stupid. I specify. That is true.

186
00:19:13,840 --> 00:19:20,360
So I think this answer this question I think it comes down to you bet you should watch

187
00:19:20,360 --> 00:19:26,040
your tongue. It could become a sin. Just that's as easy as it gets. What do you think. What

188
00:19:26,040 --> 00:19:40,000
do you think. Yeah. No I think that is pretty much. It's the way you know it is. It is if

189
00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:48,000
you get it involves lying and a malice chart for you're not loving. But if it's in if it's

190
00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:54,040
in the contents out of love like a loving way. Because remember you know we're called

191
00:19:54,040 --> 00:20:00,320
to love one another the uplift one another. So I think in that way it's fine. But if it's

192
00:20:00,320 --> 00:20:09,560
in a way of tearing somebody down lying and sorts like that's clearly a sin. Yeah I agree.

193
00:20:09,560 --> 00:20:19,760
It can be. It's a very fine line to make sure that you are not sinning with that one. Yeah.

194
00:20:19,760 --> 00:20:32,000
So this actually goes right into the second question. Very very. No. Oh no. Second question

195
00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:44,400
is cussing us in. Son of a nice lady. No cussing. Well he does say not you cannot serve the

196
00:20:44,400 --> 00:20:50,200
same mouth that you praise the Lord with. Well then I have a question for you. Because

197
00:20:50,200 --> 00:20:54,040
this is what they this is the person I was talking to. They asked this question right.

198
00:20:54,040 --> 00:20:59,160
They're like what is cussing a sin. And I was like OK well what what exactly are you

199
00:20:59,160 --> 00:21:03,440
trying to get across here. Like what are you just trying to say like any foul words in

200
00:21:03,440 --> 00:21:07,880
general. Like is your sinning when you say him or are you saying like what are you trying

201
00:21:07,880 --> 00:21:15,760
to say. And what they came across was if you look at olden days like back in the like mid

202
00:21:15,760 --> 00:21:24,640
era century words like get zooks and beds were ver and gets book Likens and stuff like

203
00:21:24,640 --> 00:21:29,880
that were actual customers just as bad as like effort or the seaward now. Wait wait

204
00:21:29,880 --> 00:21:39,200
wait wait wait wait wait. Saying get zooks. Yeah. Yeah. It was a word back then. Right.

205
00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:48,200
Get zooks was an old curse word back in the 17th century. And no. Right. That just made

206
00:21:48,200 --> 00:21:54,040
my day. And it was a very bad word. It was it was really bad. You said that people like

207
00:21:54,040 --> 00:21:59,600
what you just said what now. You'll need to watch your language young man. Right. And

208
00:21:59,600 --> 00:22:04,240
then there was one it was like the scum. Is under kite. There's all these words that are

209
00:22:04,240 --> 00:22:10,240
like very very raunchy words back in the 15th 16th and 18th century like between those time

210
00:22:10,240 --> 00:22:15,440
frames. And nowadays we use them and we just kind of laugh because no one's insulted. They're

211
00:22:15,440 --> 00:22:19,600
not cuss words anymore. They lost the meaning of them. They're not cussing. They're not

212
00:22:19,600 --> 00:22:28,000
foul language anymore. So their point was if language falls off as not cussing anymore

213
00:22:28,000 --> 00:22:39,960
at what point does the cussing turn into not cussing. So. Once again it goes back to the

214
00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:47,440
very similar thing of where's your heart at. And it comes back to the fusions for 29 where

215
00:22:47,440 --> 00:22:55,880
it's like as fit for the occasion right. You know there there's a place to where if I it's

216
00:22:55,880 --> 00:23:02,120
all coming back down to being careful with your words right. This bridle your tongue.

217
00:23:02,120 --> 00:23:08,820
It's just I think James one twenty six says anyone that thinks he's religious and does

218
00:23:08,820 --> 00:23:14,280
not bridle his tongue but deceives his heart that person's religion is worthless. It just

219
00:23:14,280 --> 00:23:22,360
goes about like we have to watch what we say and how we say it. That's just truth. But

220
00:23:22,360 --> 00:23:26,760
it doesn't mean that we're going to perfectly do it because you can't perfectly tame your

221
00:23:26,760 --> 00:23:31,880
mouth because you start saying something that's going to keep coming out. You start saying

222
00:23:31,880 --> 00:23:37,880
it. It will. I think it's James three eight through 10 talks about that versus no human

223
00:23:37,880 --> 00:23:45,180
being can tame your tongue. It is a restless evil full of deadly poison which with it we

224
00:23:45,180 --> 00:23:49,340
bless our Lord and father and with it we curse the people who are made in likeness of God.

225
00:23:49,340 --> 00:23:56,160
From the same mouth comes blessing and cursing. My brothers these things ought not to be so.

226
00:23:56,160 --> 00:24:02,220
And we're supposed to put away anger wrath malice slander and obscene talk from your

227
00:24:02,220 --> 00:24:09,760
mouth. That's Colossians three eight that talks about that. So I think when the Bible

228
00:24:09,760 --> 00:24:17,920
is talking about cursing it's literally talking about to another person like at hurts at someone

229
00:24:17,920 --> 00:24:28,520
like I'm so into how to curse them in a general sense. Right. Yeah. Yeah. And I think yeah.

230
00:24:28,520 --> 00:24:36,800
Like to say you know if you do somebody is like to curse them in a sense. Right. Because

231
00:24:36,800 --> 00:24:43,320
you're cursing at them like in that sense. I'm trying to remember because I just said

232
00:24:43,320 --> 00:24:49,840
let's see here because when you're cursing someone in the Bible like I think Luke six

233
00:24:49,840 --> 00:24:55,320
let me double check. I think Luke six twenty eight is one of them that talks about it has

234
00:24:55,320 --> 00:25:02,200
been a bit Luke six twenty eight is bless those who curse you and pray for those who

235
00:25:02,200 --> 00:25:10,320
abuse you. So in that sense of curse. Yeah. That's what I was looking for. So let me go

236
00:25:10,320 --> 00:25:24,800
ahead and do sorry I'm like pulling up a Bible verse right now. So you know. Yeah I get it.

237
00:25:24,800 --> 00:25:29,640
Here we go. All right. King James version because that has strong concordance if you

238
00:25:29,640 --> 00:25:35,600
haven't tried that before. Curse. Let's see what the original words the original word

239
00:25:35,600 --> 00:25:43,200
for curse because this was in which which Luke so this is Greek. That's going to be

240
00:25:43,200 --> 00:25:53,160
cataromia. I don't know. That sounds like Greek to me. To. So it says to curse to doom someone

241
00:25:53,160 --> 00:26:06,760
and to implicate people upon someone. That's like tearing people down. Right. Having like

242
00:26:06,760 --> 00:26:16,800
I said anger or malice in your heart. Right. Curse cursing cursed and imprecation curse

243
00:26:16,800 --> 00:26:27,120
and excretion execution. These are this is a very good way to put it. So it's to someone

244
00:26:27,120 --> 00:26:33,800
towards someone. That's all very good to know. So you break down the word piece by piece

245
00:26:33,800 --> 00:26:41,200
like how you could break it down because like I said it is it's cat Tara. Oh man. He. Yeah.

246
00:26:41,200 --> 00:26:49,680
Sounds right. That's what it is. Katara. Oh my. You break that word. Yeah. You break that

247
00:26:49,680 --> 00:26:57,920
down it goes to Katara which is just straight up curse cursing cursed and imprecation bad

248
00:26:57,920 --> 00:27:04,320
stuff. You break that word down a little bit more you get Katta which Katta means towards

249
00:27:04,320 --> 00:27:12,480
someone or according to someone against someone that kind of that's what that word means.

250
00:27:12,480 --> 00:27:25,200
So yeah. Putting these together it's pretty straightforward to doom someone or bring evil

251
00:27:25,200 --> 00:27:32,160
upon in that sense. So if I'm like you know if I say like like damn you kind of thing

252
00:27:32,160 --> 00:27:38,240
that is very nice. Right. That's like that's a cursing someone. So when the Bible is talking

253
00:27:38,240 --> 00:27:46,000
about don't like don't curse it's it's always specifically at someone unless it's like

254
00:27:46,000 --> 00:27:50,240
Ephesians which we talked about where it says no corrupting talk come out of your mouth period.

255
00:27:50,240 --> 00:27:56,400
Right. But as fit for the occasion kind of thing and in the sense of like only good

256
00:27:56,400 --> 00:28:04,240
and for building up that kind of stuff. Yeah. Yeah. It's like I got a couple of kids last

257
00:28:04,240 --> 00:28:10,640
night youth group that were just they were just ripping into everything and everyone

258
00:28:10,640 --> 00:28:16,080
and I was going like hey guys they can't be doing that. And it's like like and they came

259
00:28:16,080 --> 00:28:21,840
at me with it and I was like OK I'm like look it you have a couple options here you can

260
00:28:21,840 --> 00:28:28,000
you can go sit outside in the rain or you can sit in here and behave and they're like well

261
00:28:28,000 --> 00:28:31,680
no. And then like I got to look like oh you can't talk to them like that. I'm like that's

262
00:28:31,680 --> 00:28:37,840
very biblical to tell them that hey you need to either be loving and kind or you can like

263
00:28:37,840 --> 00:28:43,280
I'm not like especially when the kid decides he's going to be on a cell phone in the middle

264
00:28:43,280 --> 00:28:49,280
of the teaching and everything. I was like you know I'm like I get it if mom and dad

265
00:28:49,280 --> 00:28:54,720
made you come here but like I don't need the I didn't need this your specialness in like

266
00:28:54,720 --> 00:28:59,200
the language was being used like you're at church. I was like I'm sorry like you can't

267
00:29:00,240 --> 00:29:08,240
just behave and there's this there was this kid these days. I think it's that reminds me of

268
00:29:10,160 --> 00:29:16,880
Matthew 15 11. Yeah. Matthew let me look this up. Matthew 15 11. I don't want to paraphrase.

269
00:29:16,880 --> 00:29:22,240
It is not what goes into the mouth that defiles a person but what comes out of the mouth this defiles

270
00:29:22,240 --> 00:29:30,640
a person. And I used that when I was talking to the person I was before. I'm like he it comes

271
00:29:30,640 --> 00:29:34,480
down to like being careful what we're doing because we want to lift people up around us

272
00:29:34,480 --> 00:29:47,280
and that that's not we got to be careful. So to kind of keep moving this forward because

273
00:29:47,280 --> 00:29:51,600
there's two more questions and one bonus question that's maybe we'll get time to do.

274
00:29:51,600 --> 00:30:05,600
Is cussing a sin? I'd say cussing at someone cursing someone is a sin. Yes that is 100% true.

275
00:30:07,600 --> 00:30:13,600
If you call someone to do that by demeaning them putting them down you know taking away

276
00:30:13,600 --> 00:30:22,080
how's that glorifying the kingdom. It does but I will add I will add because it's important

277
00:30:22,720 --> 00:30:31,360
James 417. Do you remember this one or no? No. Okay James 417 so whoever knows the right thing

278
00:30:31,360 --> 00:30:41,600
to do and fails to do it that is sin. So if you're someone that is sitting there and to you saying

279
00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:47,280
ah heck is a sin to you and you still do it because you're like well it's not really a cuss word but

280
00:30:47,280 --> 00:30:52,880
you feel wrong doing it you're you're sinning because that's your conscience and that's your

281
00:30:52,880 --> 00:31:03,200
body that is that is something the bible talks about as being sin. I know as somebody who has

282
00:31:03,200 --> 00:31:11,280
to deal with children and a child who's five there's times where you know like I can't I'll be like

283
00:31:11,280 --> 00:31:18,720
oh that was stupid and I hear that's a bad word you can't say that I'm like oh my well I mean

284
00:31:18,720 --> 00:31:25,360
not for me but for you yes but like you know and it's almost like and you have to and that's like

285
00:31:25,360 --> 00:31:31,200
a great way I think of I was thinking about it is that you know you have to know who you're around

286
00:31:31,760 --> 00:31:39,600
and who you're influencing because I mean we're claimed to be Christ-like to be Christians we have

287
00:31:39,600 --> 00:31:49,280
to have that that um like I guess like your Jesus your Jesus filter yeah your Jesus filter and and

288
00:31:49,280 --> 00:31:52,960
that's something you should always have I mean it shouldn't just be on and off depending on who you're

289
00:31:52,960 --> 00:31:58,640
with but like you know if you're talking with your wife it's a little different if I'm talking with

290
00:31:59,280 --> 00:32:06,240
you know uh say my high school students like I'm a junior hires this to high school

291
00:32:06,240 --> 00:32:10,400
your hires are still you know they're a little younger you got to have the kid gloves and a

292
00:32:10,400 --> 00:32:18,480
little bit more with them but then high schoolers you know you can be real right so you know like I

293
00:32:18,480 --> 00:32:28,480
was talking on uh ehud a little while ago uh and he has to kill king Egelon and there's a part where

294
00:32:28,480 --> 00:32:33,920
it says the bible says he's a very fat man and then after he's killed he poops his pants

295
00:32:33,920 --> 00:32:40,160
so and you know I got to talk about that and the junior hires are laughing I think it's hilarious

296
00:32:40,160 --> 00:32:45,600
because they can't even jump themselves and they get in the high school is going like whoa what

297
00:32:45,600 --> 00:32:52,480
really right he stabbed the guy and then he like pooped right I mean okay some of the boys are still

298
00:32:52,480 --> 00:32:58,080
going what he like yeah but um

299
00:32:58,080 --> 00:33:05,840
um but yeah no it was it's it's it's yeah definitely the matter how you talk and

300
00:33:06,560 --> 00:33:15,520
once again kind of sarcasm and how we're talking and how we are speaking and outlifting people

301
00:33:15,520 --> 00:33:16,800
are returning them down

302
00:33:16,800 --> 00:33:27,520
right so yeah so I'm I'm I think we both agree cursing at someone is sin and for him that thinks

303
00:33:27,520 --> 00:33:32,800
it is wrong and he does it anyways that is sin because James 417 like we said so you got to be

304
00:33:32,800 --> 00:33:41,200
comfortable with that that's it you gotta be careful so are you ready for question three

305
00:33:41,200 --> 00:33:50,800
are you ready for question three am I ready for question three hmm yeah I am ready I'm not

306
00:33:52,240 --> 00:34:01,440
you're not I'm not well that doesn't make me feel confident at all this question threw me off so

307
00:34:01,440 --> 00:34:10,160
hardcore and I got this question a month ago and it still keeps me up at night is it does peanut

308
00:34:10,160 --> 00:34:19,520
butter belong on hot dogs no because that's delicious okay so I got this question a month

309
00:34:19,520 --> 00:34:24,400
ago it was on Twitter because I was talking to someone on there about biblical foundations and

310
00:34:24,400 --> 00:34:31,760
stuff and then we I don't know how we got to the topic of it they brought it up with what they're

311
00:34:31,760 --> 00:34:35,440
doing for work and stuff because we were talking like hey what are you doing for work and I would

312
00:34:35,440 --> 00:34:43,360
doubt it days and going back and forth and um they said well I'm doing this do you think it's wrong

313
00:34:45,040 --> 00:34:53,360
so oh no the question they asked and what I'm putting the question out there is uploading

314
00:34:53,360 --> 00:35:02,880
feet pics to sell oh my gosh I know but this opens I'll open it up a little bit more oh my gosh I

315
00:35:02,880 --> 00:35:10,480
wonder I'm so uncomfortable with this one already so I'm also not gonna lie hold up real quick

316
00:35:10,480 --> 00:35:16,640
look what who has okay I feel it's a genuine thing who has not thought about doing it though

317
00:35:16,640 --> 00:35:26,000
I I literally haven't because this never crossed my mind like you know why the problem is Jason

318
00:35:26,000 --> 00:35:33,360
you know you know why the problem is Jason you're just not poor enough I know you're not poor enough

319
00:35:33,360 --> 00:35:37,920
because me me me like I have some big feet but just somebody be into that and I'm like but no no

320
00:35:38,720 --> 00:35:40,800
like I'm not desperate enough

321
00:35:43,520 --> 00:35:51,200
yeah I so okay opening up the question though is uploading pictures of yourself like on

322
00:35:51,200 --> 00:35:59,200
on your feet sexual no no I'll say it all like non-sexual pictures to sell is that a sin because

323
00:35:59,200 --> 00:36:04,240
if you tackle the all pictures it will it will cover feet pics but that was the question I

324
00:36:04,240 --> 00:36:08,720
specifically got I just had to throw it out there to see like let people know this is what I had to

325
00:36:08,720 --> 00:36:15,680
deal with it's it's a good question that I've never had to literally think I'd ever have to answer

326
00:36:15,680 --> 00:36:21,920
but it's not as it's not a simple yes or no so their argument was because I was talking with them

327
00:36:22,640 --> 00:36:31,680
their argument was that they are not sharing pictures of anything of the sexual nature

328
00:36:32,800 --> 00:36:39,520
and they upload it and they sell it and when they sell it someone else may take it out of

329
00:36:40,080 --> 00:36:44,400
like a lustful desire and stuff like that but they're not responsible for that person

330
00:36:44,400 --> 00:36:49,200
sin yes but then you are causing a brother or sister to fall into sin

331
00:36:50,720 --> 00:36:56,560
but they're probably not brothers and sisters in Christ they're probably unsaved at that point

332
00:36:56,560 --> 00:37:01,840
doesn't mean yeah but then you shouldn't be saying then you better put a bible verse somebody did

333
00:37:01,840 --> 00:37:09,440
see pics no outreach outreach yeah but like no because if you think about it if we're still

334
00:37:09,440 --> 00:37:15,280
causing somebody to sin whether they're they're aware of the sin or if they're not and they want

335
00:37:15,280 --> 00:37:24,480
to live in that denial of sin it's still sin so here so this is where I also was telling them that

336
00:37:24,480 --> 00:37:30,800
kind of that kind of uh leaning that way with them and they said so is someone let's say someone

337
00:37:30,800 --> 00:37:35,280
is at the beach and they're in their swimsuit and they take a picture on instagram to show their

338
00:37:35,280 --> 00:37:39,920
family like hey look i'm i'm here on the beach with my my friends and stuff just like a photo

339
00:37:39,920 --> 00:37:46,400
most people do that kind of stuff if someone takes that photo and sees it out of lust and desire

340
00:37:46,400 --> 00:37:55,600
and no no not the same is not the same right because it was the intent right what's the intent

341
00:37:56,160 --> 00:38:03,120
so their opinion was that their intent was to make money so that they can survive okay then that is

342
00:38:03,120 --> 00:38:10,240
greedy i mean making money dude we do that every day well some of us do well you know our bills

343
00:38:10,240 --> 00:38:18,960
take it but yeah um yeah i mean if it is to make money but here's the thing do you corrupt your

344
00:38:18,960 --> 00:38:27,680
morals in in order to make money or do you stand morally on on solid ground and you say no i'm not

345
00:38:27,680 --> 00:38:33,760
going to cause somebody else to fall into sin right well here's what i broke it down to and i want to

346
00:38:33,760 --> 00:38:39,280
see if you think uh what you think of this because i i i broke it down to him and told him that like

347
00:38:39,280 --> 00:38:46,000
the biblical terminology of sin itself it's vast yes and there's a lot of biblical context about it

348
00:38:46,000 --> 00:38:52,800
but within biblical contest uh like context it suggests that sin has three major aspects

349
00:38:52,800 --> 00:39:01,120
um which one is disobedience to or the breach of biblical law or violation of relationships with

350
00:39:01,120 --> 00:39:08,400
people themselves and the last one was rebellion against god which is the most basic concept of

351
00:39:08,400 --> 00:39:16,240
sin itself which obviously that's simplifying things which is like pretty close to oversimplification

352
00:39:16,240 --> 00:39:25,920
of things um but if we bring to the hebrew terms of sin in general you got the word like hatat

353
00:39:25,920 --> 00:39:32,000
which means a missing of a standard mark or goal like short you come shortcoming basically

354
00:39:32,000 --> 00:39:38,400
you got the word pesa which means the breach of a relationship or a rebellion against and then you

355
00:39:38,400 --> 00:39:46,960
got a one which means perseverance like uh in that sense and then you got sagaga which signifies

356
00:39:46,960 --> 00:39:53,120
error or a mistake and then you got words like reza which means godliness and justice and

357
00:39:53,120 --> 00:40:02,720
wickedness a ma which refers to sin means mischief of or oppression um you got those kind of things

358
00:40:02,720 --> 00:40:13,120
that come in with these terms and uh including uh hamartia which was a greek word in the new testament

359
00:40:13,120 --> 00:40:19,440
was signifying offenses against god's law people or god himself so you got these things saying what

360
00:40:19,440 --> 00:40:27,200
sin is so usually it's really easy to say the question you're asking does it do any of those

361
00:40:27,200 --> 00:40:36,240
things right yes i just that's how i broke it down to him i was like we we can look at a biblical

362
00:40:36,240 --> 00:40:42,880
perspective and see what the words were used for sin and see what those words stood for because

363
00:40:42,880 --> 00:40:51,680
the the words used are very very very very very very very very very very very very very very

364
00:40:51,680 --> 00:41:00,560
very very very very very purposeful because how greek and hebrew language was written and how it

365
00:41:00,560 --> 00:41:08,160
functioned is that each word has a lot more context so with us we can say oh that's good

366
00:41:08,160 --> 00:41:14,880
and in hebrew they have all these different words for good so they specifically use uh one of the

367
00:41:14,880 --> 00:41:19,720
So they specifically use one of the words used for good

368
00:41:19,720 --> 00:41:23,600
to have its own context to it in specific settings

369
00:41:23,600 --> 00:41:26,100
and situations and sentences, et cetera.

370
00:41:26,100 --> 00:41:28,320
Everything's very purposeful.

371
00:41:28,320 --> 00:41:32,820
Like I, in English, can say, oh, today was great.

372
00:41:33,820 --> 00:41:36,560
And in Hebrew, they can say a sentence like,

373
00:41:36,560 --> 00:41:39,680
today was great, but they use specific words that was,

374
00:41:39,680 --> 00:41:41,780
today was one of the best days of my life

375
00:41:41,780 --> 00:41:44,800
because it was good and prosperous.

376
00:41:44,800 --> 00:41:46,440
And they said the same amount of words.

377
00:41:46,440 --> 00:41:48,760
It's because the words they use in order

378
00:41:48,760 --> 00:41:53,000
create a certain order to the contextual sentence.

379
00:41:54,160 --> 00:41:55,440
And I think that's really cool,

380
00:41:55,440 --> 00:41:58,440
but I think that's also why I brought that up is because

381
00:41:59,500 --> 00:42:03,360
does that thing that you do

382
00:42:05,240 --> 00:42:08,460
apply to any of these definitions of sin?

383
00:42:11,740 --> 00:42:12,580
So.

384
00:42:12,580 --> 00:42:17,580
Yeah, I mean, dang, that's,

385
00:42:18,800 --> 00:42:20,360
there's a lot there.

386
00:42:22,960 --> 00:42:23,800
Right, so,

387
00:42:27,160 --> 00:42:29,880
it's hard because obviously images weren't something

388
00:42:29,880 --> 00:42:32,160
that was really common back then,

389
00:42:33,160 --> 00:42:38,160
like pictures and stuff like that, but yeah,

390
00:42:39,160 --> 00:42:40,240
it's interesting.

391
00:42:40,240 --> 00:42:41,080
It's interesting.

392
00:42:44,320 --> 00:42:46,360
I mean, for the most part, I'd say that

393
00:42:47,680 --> 00:42:52,680
if you know that, if you're to sell feet picks

394
00:42:54,880 --> 00:42:57,360
and you know that it's going to constantly

395
00:42:57,360 --> 00:42:59,160
the lust or whatever,

396
00:43:00,720 --> 00:43:05,720
if you know it's gonna constantly fall short,

397
00:43:06,000 --> 00:43:06,840
like I,

398
00:43:06,840 --> 00:43:09,040
it's, you know, it'd be weird, but I think,

399
00:43:12,040 --> 00:43:15,040
I feel like that has to fall in the line of,

400
00:43:16,040 --> 00:43:18,640
yeah, like, because if you know somebody's

401
00:43:18,640 --> 00:43:21,480
gonna use them for, you know, something,

402
00:43:21,480 --> 00:43:23,240
I feel like that's definitely,

403
00:43:25,240 --> 00:43:26,720
it doesn't sit right.

404
00:43:26,720 --> 00:43:28,960
Well, you've got the lust argument, obviously,

405
00:43:28,960 --> 00:43:31,520
which some people find that lustful,

406
00:43:31,520 --> 00:43:33,880
but people nowadays say that

407
00:43:33,880 --> 00:43:37,160
it's lustful, but people nowadays, sadly,

408
00:43:37,160 --> 00:43:40,520
find a lot of things lustful and will be,

409
00:43:40,520 --> 00:43:42,160
anything can be taken.

410
00:43:42,160 --> 00:43:45,240
I get that, I get that, but what's the intent behind it?

411
00:43:46,920 --> 00:43:50,820
The intent is to make money off of somebody else's sin.

412
00:43:52,760 --> 00:43:56,080
Therefore, it is not okay and unjust.

413
00:43:58,360 --> 00:43:59,200
Right.

414
00:44:01,120 --> 00:44:03,240
So what are you leaning towards with this?

415
00:44:03,240 --> 00:44:04,240
This is interesting.

416
00:44:05,560 --> 00:44:06,800
Is it a sin?

417
00:44:09,080 --> 00:44:11,620
No, it's not, I don't believe it is,

418
00:44:12,640 --> 00:44:14,480
but I think that it is,

419
00:44:15,880 --> 00:44:19,220
it's not a sin, but I think it is something

420
00:44:19,220 --> 00:44:20,500
that is definitely,

421
00:44:21,480 --> 00:44:25,120
you're profiting off of somebody else's sin and suffering,

422
00:44:25,120 --> 00:44:30,120
which I think is a shady and very bad thing.

423
00:44:34,080 --> 00:44:36,700
And I think it takes somebody who has,

424
00:44:38,920 --> 00:44:41,760
somebody who either is very desperate

425
00:44:41,760 --> 00:44:44,580
or somebody who is, well,

426
00:44:46,580 --> 00:44:50,820
just manipulative and, you know, that's not okay.

427
00:44:50,820 --> 00:44:55,820
So they brought up,

428
00:44:55,820 --> 00:44:58,260
because this conversation went on way longer

429
00:44:58,260 --> 00:44:59,680
than you'd expect it to,

430
00:45:01,900 --> 00:45:05,100
they brought up, I think it was Song of Solomon's

431
00:45:05,100 --> 00:45:06,900
chapter seven, have you ever,

432
00:45:06,900 --> 00:45:09,060
how much have you been in Song of Solomon?

433
00:45:13,620 --> 00:45:15,340
Not often, often?

434
00:45:17,300 --> 00:45:18,740
I am so sorry.

435
00:45:18,740 --> 00:45:23,740
I, can you repeat the question a little bit?

436
00:45:24,140 --> 00:45:27,340
Yeah, I said, so they brought up Song of Solomon's,

437
00:45:27,340 --> 00:45:29,580
how often have you been in Song of Solomon's?

438
00:45:30,500 --> 00:45:32,560
Oh, not too often.

439
00:45:34,100 --> 00:45:35,720
Not too often?

440
00:45:35,720 --> 00:45:37,300
So they brought up Song of Solomon's

441
00:45:37,300 --> 00:45:40,020
and they're like, Song of Solomon seven, right?

442
00:45:40,020 --> 00:45:42,500
And I was like, okay, I know Song of Solomon

443
00:45:42,500 --> 00:45:45,940
is to the bridegroom and the very first word,

444
00:45:45,940 --> 00:45:48,480
or the very first verse in Song of Solomon seven,

445
00:45:48,480 --> 00:45:50,780
how beautiful are your feet and sandals,

446
00:45:50,780 --> 00:45:52,780
oh, prince's daughter, the curves of your hips

447
00:45:52,780 --> 00:45:56,740
are like jewels, the work of your hands of an artist, right?

448
00:45:58,700 --> 00:46:00,940
Yes, but when he's talking about that,

449
00:46:00,940 --> 00:46:03,060
he's also talking about his wife.

450
00:46:04,420 --> 00:46:07,180
Yeah, well, his bridegroom, like the bride.

451
00:46:07,180 --> 00:46:09,420
He's talking about his fiance.

452
00:46:09,420 --> 00:46:11,220
Right, and that bridegroom, right.

453
00:46:11,220 --> 00:46:12,220
You know what you mean?

454
00:46:12,220 --> 00:46:21,580
You know what you mean, but he's talking about his wife, his woman, okay?

455
00:46:22,300 --> 00:46:24,540
And especially in those days, that was his concession.

456
00:46:24,540 --> 00:46:25,860
That was what he owned.

457
00:46:27,340 --> 00:46:28,340
That's how it was.

458
00:46:29,620 --> 00:46:35,500
Okay, so he has every right to describe and talk about them.

459
00:46:37,540 --> 00:46:38,540
Right.

460
00:46:38,540 --> 00:46:43,940
Now, how would you feel if your wife was selling feet pits?

461
00:46:45,340 --> 00:46:46,340
Well, that's the thing.

462
00:46:46,340 --> 00:46:48,060
I don't know, because it's just.

463
00:46:48,060 --> 00:46:50,500
No, no, I know.

464
00:46:51,380 --> 00:46:55,380
It's a, you know, you know, other men are looking at your wife,

465
00:46:55,380 --> 00:46:56,620
lusting over your wife.

466
00:46:57,460 --> 00:46:59,340
How does that sit in with your heart?

467
00:46:59,660 --> 00:47:01,260
That happens when we go to the mall.

468
00:47:03,180 --> 00:47:06,780
I understand, but instead of it just being

469
00:47:06,780 --> 00:47:13,460
what happens because they see or whatever, but it just being the intent of purposely

470
00:47:13,660 --> 00:47:16,260
using that sin to make money.

471
00:47:16,540 --> 00:47:18,060
How does that sit morally?

472
00:47:18,060 --> 00:47:19,580
It's more, not less.

473
00:47:19,580 --> 00:47:21,140
I, it's not a sin.

474
00:47:21,140 --> 00:47:25,580
I'll say that now, but morally, I think it's more of a moral question.

475
00:47:25,620 --> 00:47:28,580
How does that sit with your morals?

476
00:47:30,260 --> 00:47:35,820
Honestly, for me personally, it doesn't bug me because if she's at the mall

477
00:47:35,820 --> 00:47:39,900
or she's at the beach or we're at a pool, people do that crap,

478
00:47:40,180 --> 00:47:41,660
that kind of stuff all the time.

479
00:47:41,780 --> 00:47:42,820
That's a constant.

480
00:47:42,820 --> 00:47:43,580
People are.

481
00:47:43,580 --> 00:47:49,060
So then if people are going to sin, if you're going to be sinful, make a buck,

482
00:47:49,660 --> 00:47:50,740
but I get paid out of it.

483
00:47:53,180 --> 00:47:54,500
But is that any better?

484
00:47:55,620 --> 00:47:56,620
It's a sin.

485
00:47:57,300 --> 00:47:58,300
Wouldn't it be?

486
00:47:59,540 --> 00:48:00,940
I mean, it's sin, but why?

487
00:48:01,260 --> 00:48:02,540
Why make a bit?

488
00:48:02,540 --> 00:48:08,420
I morally, I think why profit off of somebody else's sin and shortcoming?

489
00:48:09,540 --> 00:48:12,140
Yeah, that's, that's kind of what it comes down to.

490
00:48:12,140 --> 00:48:12,340
Right.

491
00:48:12,340 --> 00:48:14,180
And that's kind of what I was talking to them about.

492
00:48:14,180 --> 00:48:19,100
I was like, well, this is like, I understand where they were coming from saying

493
00:48:19,100 --> 00:48:22,380
like, it's just a foot and it's money that helps me.

494
00:48:22,380 --> 00:48:27,660
And it's just, it's my way of making extra cash so I can afford to do things

495
00:48:27,660 --> 00:48:30,300
and take care of other people and using it for good.

496
00:48:30,300 --> 00:48:32,140
And I'm like, do you feel wrong doing it?

497
00:48:32,140 --> 00:48:34,620
They're like, no, because it's just a photo of my foot.

498
00:48:34,900 --> 00:48:36,660
I mean, I go barefoot all the time.

499
00:48:36,660 --> 00:48:38,100
I'm in sandals all the time.

500
00:48:38,100 --> 00:48:44,820
I'm in, I'm like, yes, but you are doing it to a website that you specifically

501
00:48:44,820 --> 00:48:51,060
know is like a sexual lusting desire kind of like kink thing that you're

502
00:48:51,060 --> 00:48:51,580
specific.

503
00:48:51,580 --> 00:48:54,260
That only feats.

504
00:48:55,540 --> 00:48:57,260
I think it's feet finder.

505
00:48:57,260 --> 00:49:01,220
I know, I was that one, the one thing's called that only fans or whatever,

506
00:49:01,700 --> 00:49:03,380
which I was told was YouTube.

507
00:49:03,860 --> 00:49:05,500
And then I went, I checked it out.

508
00:49:05,500 --> 00:49:06,780
I'm like, this is not YouTube.

509
00:49:07,060 --> 00:49:08,180
My friends thought it'd be funny.

510
00:49:09,580 --> 00:49:15,540
You know, only fans like is for everything, not just like nudity, like you and me.

511
00:49:15,540 --> 00:49:16,220
No, no.

512
00:49:16,460 --> 00:49:16,980
Yeah.

513
00:49:16,980 --> 00:49:17,580
Oh no.

514
00:49:17,580 --> 00:49:22,100
I, you know that, but I was told, I was told, dude, you know, I'm not going to

515
00:49:22,100 --> 00:49:22,660
do that.

516
00:49:22,660 --> 00:49:23,460
I'm not going to do that.

517
00:49:23,460 --> 00:49:24,260
I'm not going to do that.

518
00:49:24,260 --> 00:49:28,260
You know that, but then I was told, I was told, go check it out.

519
00:49:28,260 --> 00:49:28,940
It's really cool.

520
00:49:28,940 --> 00:49:30,020
It's like YouTube.

521
00:49:30,460 --> 00:49:33,420
And then, well, I did, I'm like, this is this point.

522
00:49:34,620 --> 00:49:41,580
Most of it right now is I was going like, this is just, just, just don't you

523
00:49:41,580 --> 00:49:44,500
jump was asked to make an alignment on this shit.

524
00:49:44,700 --> 00:49:45,820
Talking mushrooms.

525
00:49:47,860 --> 00:49:48,380
I heard that.

526
00:49:48,380 --> 00:49:50,980
No, I mean, I'm just talking mushrooms.

527
00:49:51,500 --> 00:49:52,580
We're talking about this.

528
00:49:52,580 --> 00:49:57,020
It's just, it all depends on your heart.

529
00:49:57,020 --> 00:49:57,940
Leave me alone.

530
00:49:58,900 --> 00:50:02,620
I just had to walk upstairs because my, my, he's what's done.

531
00:50:03,260 --> 00:50:05,860
You got married passionate really quick.

532
00:50:07,780 --> 00:50:09,180
That's one word.

533
00:50:09,460 --> 00:50:10,860
It was so betrayed.

534
00:50:12,140 --> 00:50:13,420
I did it for my mama.

535
00:50:14,820 --> 00:50:15,900
Oh, goodness.

536
00:50:16,620 --> 00:50:19,500
No, but honestly, we can just cut that.

537
00:50:19,500 --> 00:50:20,420
So it's all good.

538
00:50:20,420 --> 00:50:31,380
No, no, can we at least cut the part where I messed up the prayer and said,

539
00:50:31,380 --> 00:50:34,740
Hey Jason, do you want to like, um, to the, to the prayer?

540
00:50:35,460 --> 00:50:36,820
No, that's perfect.

541
00:50:39,820 --> 00:50:41,100
Look, this is the point.

542
00:50:41,140 --> 00:50:44,700
People will listen in and be like, wow, these guys are really close friends.

543
00:50:44,700 --> 00:50:47,100
And you know, I love our audience.

544
00:50:47,100 --> 00:50:47,940
They're fantastic.

545
00:50:47,940 --> 00:50:49,020
They've been waiting for us.

546
00:50:49,020 --> 00:50:50,980
I smell the complete idiot.

547
00:50:50,980 --> 00:50:52,180
You can't even talk.

548
00:50:52,580 --> 00:50:53,460
They love you.

549
00:50:55,540 --> 00:50:59,100
They come to leave ADHD, stupid best friend.

550
00:50:59,780 --> 00:51:01,060
Oh my goodness.

551
00:51:01,540 --> 00:51:06,580
Well, we're coming to the end of the podcast timeframe that I set up, but that's

552
00:51:06,580 --> 00:51:11,900
okay about like, we got about like 15 minutes before I need to like cut it off.

553
00:51:13,020 --> 00:51:14,060
Oh, 15 minutes.

554
00:51:14,260 --> 00:51:17,700
So that sounds like we have enough time to do one more question.

555
00:51:17,980 --> 00:51:18,740
Oh gosh.

556
00:51:18,740 --> 00:51:19,900
That's a bonus question.

557
00:51:22,380 --> 00:51:23,300
That's ESPN.

558
00:51:23,900 --> 00:51:24,780
We're not sponsored.

559
00:51:26,900 --> 00:51:28,980
But they hear this and they want to give us a sponsor.

560
00:51:28,980 --> 00:51:33,660
I'm you know, as a non-sports podcast.

561
00:51:35,020 --> 00:51:39,300
Hey, hey, you know, this is like, we don't like sports.

562
00:51:41,540 --> 00:51:45,620
We're both in a fan football league that I am destroying this year.

563
00:51:45,620 --> 00:51:47,940
And well, you, you actually doing this in the last year.

564
00:51:47,940 --> 00:51:49,740
So I'm not going to see you then.

565
00:51:50,700 --> 00:51:52,180
You're not in last.

566
00:51:52,460 --> 00:51:54,700
No, I'm coming back.

567
00:51:56,460 --> 00:51:58,060
I never, I never left.

568
00:51:59,980 --> 00:52:01,260
I guess we'll never know.

569
00:52:01,740 --> 00:52:02,220
Right.

570
00:52:04,300 --> 00:52:05,060
Stupid.

571
00:52:07,060 --> 00:52:12,780
But no, you know, seat picks, I think it is, I mean, if you have no moral problems

572
00:52:12,780 --> 00:52:18,900
with it, you know, as somebody I'm open, I'll be open, but like as somebody who is,

573
00:52:18,900 --> 00:52:22,500
you know, in the past, there's been struggles with pornography and stuff like that.

574
00:52:22,860 --> 00:52:26,820
I just think it like, I personally couldn't do it to know that there might be a brother

575
00:52:26,820 --> 00:52:28,460
or sister there who is struggling.

576
00:52:29,140 --> 00:52:34,540
And if that's something that might either they might struggle with, or they might

577
00:52:34,540 --> 00:52:37,180
just be getting dabbling into that type of sin.

578
00:52:37,900 --> 00:52:41,300
Why would I help them fall further?

579
00:52:41,300 --> 00:52:44,260
Fall further away from the kingdom of heaven.

580
00:52:45,740 --> 00:52:46,220
Right.

581
00:52:47,300 --> 00:52:48,980
That's what my main thing is.

582
00:52:49,300 --> 00:52:54,420
Why would I put myself or put them in a position to struggle with a sin?

583
00:52:56,700 --> 00:52:58,100
True. And I get that.

584
00:52:58,100 --> 00:52:58,860
That's a good point.

585
00:53:00,220 --> 00:53:01,660
OK, bonus question.

586
00:53:02,420 --> 00:53:05,460
OK, get away from the listen.

587
00:53:05,460 --> 00:53:11,340
We're just got this question like is the worst thing you pick?

588
00:53:11,340 --> 00:53:13,060
No, not worse.

589
00:53:13,220 --> 00:53:16,580
That one. No, no, listen, if we pick one, it's shocking.

590
00:53:17,380 --> 00:53:19,220
Not shocking. I don't think this is shocking.

591
00:53:19,220 --> 00:53:21,660
I think a lot of people deal with this on an everyday basis.

592
00:53:22,300 --> 00:53:24,220
It's so cool. Every day.

593
00:53:24,220 --> 00:53:25,580
Is it picking your nose and glove?

594
00:53:25,580 --> 00:53:27,580
Like, because that needs to stop.

595
00:53:28,740 --> 00:53:29,340
Yeah.

596
00:53:30,500 --> 00:53:34,100
Oh, I'm so I'm like, yeah.

597
00:53:34,100 --> 00:53:35,860
Farting in the public.

598
00:53:37,540 --> 00:53:39,980
Because honestly, I find myself, you know, it's not.

599
00:53:40,380 --> 00:53:44,580
That's not like before we did this, you know, you call someone who can't fart in public, right?

600
00:53:45,620 --> 00:53:47,740
Hmm. They're a private tutor.

601
00:53:48,940 --> 00:53:51,140
Yeah, I've heard that joke.

602
00:53:51,140 --> 00:53:53,020
What a stupid joke.

603
00:53:53,020 --> 00:53:53,940
Mm hmm.

604
00:53:53,940 --> 00:53:56,140
Oh, OK, you're ready for this.

605
00:53:56,780 --> 00:53:59,060
I am so ready.

606
00:53:59,860 --> 00:54:01,340
Bonus round me, Jason.

607
00:54:01,340 --> 00:54:05,780
Now, the question itself was a week ago, they they asked, is

608
00:54:05,780 --> 00:54:07,140
it a week ago?

609
00:54:07,140 --> 00:54:08,700
About a week ago. Yeah.

610
00:54:08,700 --> 00:54:12,180
They asked, is it is it a sin to smoke weed?

611
00:54:13,060 --> 00:54:16,100
This is a good question, considering that it's becoming more legal.

612
00:54:16,900 --> 00:54:18,780
But I got the answer for this.

613
00:54:18,780 --> 00:54:20,260
I already know everything.

614
00:54:20,260 --> 00:54:22,420
OK, well, not everything. That sounds wrong.

615
00:54:23,900 --> 00:54:26,780
It's amazing. Just walking up a flight of stairs.

616
00:54:27,260 --> 00:54:29,940
The energy I feel now.

617
00:54:29,940 --> 00:54:33,580
It's. Which is really sad.

618
00:54:34,100 --> 00:54:35,900
Oh, yeah.

619
00:54:38,460 --> 00:54:41,180
So this this does come into play where.

620
00:54:44,700 --> 00:54:47,020
I think this is not just weed related.

621
00:54:47,020 --> 00:54:52,300
I think this is any sort of drunkenness and sort of intoxication.

622
00:54:54,260 --> 00:54:58,980
One of the main scriptures that use this, because I'll throw it out there.

623
00:54:58,980 --> 00:55:02,420
We're going to talk about like drunkenness and intoxication in that sense,

624
00:55:02,700 --> 00:55:06,900
because weed does get you, you know, high.

625
00:55:07,820 --> 00:55:09,540
I don't know, Jason.

626
00:55:09,540 --> 00:55:10,540
I know it does.

627
00:55:10,540 --> 00:55:13,940
Like, I'd never experienced it myself, but I never.

628
00:55:13,940 --> 00:55:15,940
Yeah, part of it.

629
00:55:17,660 --> 00:55:21,700
Now, there's a lot of people that I've talked to

630
00:55:21,700 --> 00:55:25,900
that also say the same thing, like, well, you know, it's a plant, it's natural.

631
00:55:25,900 --> 00:55:28,940
It's like the thing of like saying it's good for you.

632
00:55:28,940 --> 00:55:30,740
It calms you, whatever.

633
00:55:30,740 --> 00:55:34,140
But there is a difference between like under a doctor's

634
00:55:34,300 --> 00:55:39,060
and drug supervision of a doctor for medicinal purposes to help you.

635
00:55:39,300 --> 00:55:43,060
And then smoking marijuana for the sole purpose of altering one state

636
00:55:43,060 --> 00:55:46,940
of consciousness and losing self-control, because that part is sinful.

637
00:55:48,180 --> 00:55:52,900
Because you could see like in Galatians five in verse 21,

638
00:55:52,900 --> 00:55:59,100
when it talks about, well, 19 to 21, where it talks about the works of the flesh,

639
00:55:59,140 --> 00:56:00,740
which is sin.

640
00:56:00,740 --> 00:56:02,940
In verse 21, it says drunkenness.

641
00:56:02,940 --> 00:56:05,980
Now, the word drunkenness there is meth.

642
00:56:06,460 --> 00:56:08,820
So meth is funny meth.

643
00:56:08,820 --> 00:56:11,180
But meth. Oh, my gosh.

644
00:56:11,180 --> 00:56:13,860
And that word, right in the Bible.

645
00:56:14,340 --> 00:56:19,060
Yeah. And that word meth is intoxication, drunkenness,

646
00:56:19,060 --> 00:56:22,980
that altercation to your your ability to process.

647
00:56:22,980 --> 00:56:25,300
So, right. That's that's the whole point of it.

648
00:56:25,660 --> 00:56:32,860
And that's that's important because that in itself is labeled as sin.

649
00:56:33,220 --> 00:56:37,380
So even when it comes to alcohol, we're not to get drunk because that's sinful.

650
00:56:37,620 --> 00:56:41,620
We are not to intoxicate ourselves to the point to where we can't function

651
00:56:41,620 --> 00:56:42,780
because that's sinful.

652
00:56:43,740 --> 00:56:48,220
There's a place to where I had the argument where someone was like, well,

653
00:56:48,220 --> 00:56:53,260
go to surgery, knocked out or laughing gas or whatever, all this stuff.

654
00:56:53,260 --> 00:56:56,980
It's like that's under the supervision of someone that's trying to help you.

655
00:56:58,380 --> 00:57:00,740
It's not for you to purposely do that.

656
00:57:00,740 --> 00:57:04,340
You're not going there to give me a hit of gas, get high.

657
00:57:04,740 --> 00:57:09,620
You're doing it to, you know, protect your body, take care of your body.

658
00:57:09,620 --> 00:57:10,740
So there's a difference.

659
00:57:10,740 --> 00:57:15,020
There's a difference of actionable things to get to that point. Right.

660
00:57:15,020 --> 00:57:18,980
Like, I'm not going to the store and buying morphine so I can get lit,

661
00:57:18,980 --> 00:57:20,820
you know, because you can't.

662
00:57:23,020 --> 00:57:25,300
That that's that's what I was coming across.

663
00:57:25,820 --> 00:57:27,420
What you do. So go ahead.

664
00:57:28,140 --> 00:57:32,620
I mean, like the I believe it's the Greek, the Hebrew,

665
00:57:33,020 --> 00:57:38,420
which literally is talking about the altered state of mind or thinking.

666
00:57:40,300 --> 00:57:44,460
So it's any substance that gives you an altered mind, a state of thinking.

667
00:57:44,460 --> 00:57:47,100
Or thinking is drunkenness.

668
00:57:47,100 --> 00:57:49,740
And that's when it's referring to as a sin.

669
00:57:49,740 --> 00:57:52,540
So I think anything like that,

670
00:57:53,540 --> 00:57:56,780
that does that, that, you know, maybe it's, you know.

671
00:57:58,580 --> 00:58:01,740
Weed, alcohol.

672
00:58:04,340 --> 00:58:07,100
Any drug that there can even be that was a food.

673
00:58:07,780 --> 00:58:10,860
Some people, you know, over the ever, but it's a food.

674
00:58:10,860 --> 00:58:15,020
They get the stimulatedness like, oh, I'm really into this food.

675
00:58:15,340 --> 00:58:19,220
So I think it's anything that alters the way you think.

676
00:58:20,620 --> 00:58:24,740
Right. Is it so I mean, that's like not just, you know,

677
00:58:25,020 --> 00:58:26,980
just to hate on on weed.

678
00:58:26,980 --> 00:58:28,940
And I get there are there's a medical.

679
00:58:29,820 --> 00:58:32,500
Thanks. Your medical process to that as well.

680
00:58:32,700 --> 00:58:35,140
But there's also different forms of marijuana.

681
00:58:35,500 --> 00:58:39,380
I want to I don't know this TTC, see whatever the hell.

682
00:58:39,380 --> 00:58:42,460
I know all the crap that goes with all those are strange

683
00:58:42,460 --> 00:58:43,940
and different ways that works.

684
00:58:43,940 --> 00:58:46,380
But you can have the stuff that does it give you the high.

685
00:58:46,660 --> 00:58:49,020
It just has the medical purposes of it.

686
00:58:49,020 --> 00:58:52,940
So that's why I argue that going, well, what is the purpose of what you're doing?

687
00:58:52,940 --> 00:58:56,780
If it's for the medical purpose and your purpose, the using for that

688
00:58:57,060 --> 00:59:00,540
and not using it for a purpose of getting high

689
00:59:01,220 --> 00:59:04,020
and having that altered state,

690
00:59:04,020 --> 00:59:06,420
then if it's for medical reasons to reduce pain,

691
00:59:06,420 --> 00:59:10,700
how was Gow or something like that are medically subscribed and that is all fine.

692
00:59:11,060 --> 00:59:14,980
Yeah. But if people who I've seen people, it's sad

693
00:59:15,820 --> 00:59:20,020
who are dependent on it or they have anxiety and they have to.

694
00:59:20,140 --> 00:59:21,700
They're not high.

695
00:59:21,700 --> 00:59:24,140
They're riddled with anxiety.

696
00:59:24,260 --> 00:59:29,420
And it's a crutch almost because instead of learning how to how to deal

697
00:59:30,220 --> 00:59:33,500
with our feelings and anxieties and our troubles,

698
00:59:33,500 --> 00:59:36,180
and instead of giving them to the Lord or something like that.

699
00:59:37,420 --> 00:59:41,380
They are relying on,

700
00:59:42,060 --> 00:59:44,780
you know, on altering their their way of thinking.

701
00:59:45,220 --> 00:59:48,380
So they lie. Basically, this is a lie to themselves.

702
00:59:48,380 --> 00:59:50,220
The same thing with alcohol.

703
00:59:51,340 --> 00:59:55,100
It you know, I drink so I, you know, the judge, you know, this is all

704
00:59:55,100 --> 00:59:58,940
this trouble, you know, I need to give you a couple of shots, you know,

705
00:59:58,940 --> 01:00:02,980
like it's it and it's sad, but you know, that's a lot of what the world does.

706
01:00:02,980 --> 01:00:07,060
The world's like, hey, medicate yourself so you don't have to feel anything.

707
01:00:07,260 --> 01:00:08,500
Life sucks.

708
01:00:10,300 --> 01:00:12,300
I say life, life can suck.

709
01:00:14,180 --> 01:00:18,940
Give the crappy parts to God and rejoice in what he's done for you.

710
01:00:19,060 --> 01:00:20,060
You're still here.

711
01:00:22,700 --> 01:00:25,380
So that's my whole thought on that.

712
01:00:26,380 --> 01:00:29,860
It's the same as, um, uh, what is it?

713
01:00:29,860 --> 01:00:33,980
Luke 21, thirty four and take heed to yourselves.

714
01:00:33,980 --> 01:00:38,740
Let at lest at any time of your hearts be overcharged with,

715
01:00:40,220 --> 01:00:43,860
surfating and drunkenness and care of this life.

716
01:00:43,860 --> 01:00:46,260
And so that that day come upon you unaware.

717
01:00:46,820 --> 01:00:51,380
So that's like trend word for word translation.

718
01:00:51,380 --> 01:00:52,060
Let me make it.

719
01:00:56,180 --> 01:00:59,340
Here we go. So but take heed to yourself.

720
01:00:59,340 --> 01:01:03,380
Lest hap, lest happily to your hearts be overcharged with,

721
01:01:03,380 --> 01:01:06,540
surfating and drunkenness and cares of this life.

722
01:01:06,540 --> 01:01:09,700
And that day on you suddenly as snare.

723
01:01:11,180 --> 01:01:15,980
Even when it came down to first Peter five, eight, be sober, be vigilant

724
01:01:15,980 --> 01:01:17,860
because your adversary, the devil, as a.

725
01:01:18,860 --> 01:01:21,260
About seeking whom he may devour.

726
01:01:21,980 --> 01:01:25,980
And that word sober there is actually the word nafo.

727
01:01:25,980 --> 01:01:30,660
Nafo is to be calm, collected in spirit, to be temperate

728
01:01:30,660 --> 01:01:34,540
and dispassionate and circumspect.

729
01:01:34,540 --> 01:01:38,700
Circumspact. So that that's what that word means there.

730
01:01:38,700 --> 01:01:42,620
So when it says to be sober, mine is to be sober with a calm and collected

731
01:01:42,620 --> 01:01:44,140
in spirit, to be temperate.

732
01:01:45,260 --> 01:01:47,300
Dispassionate and circumspect.

733
01:01:47,740 --> 01:01:49,260
That is what that word means.

734
01:01:49,300 --> 01:01:51,020
So when it's saying to be sober.

735
01:01:51,980 --> 01:01:55,020
In Greek, it's not just, oh, you know,

736
01:01:55,020 --> 01:01:57,340
don't get drunk, it's like it's a lot more than that.

737
01:01:57,340 --> 01:01:59,660
And it's all contextual.

738
01:02:01,500 --> 01:02:05,340
But you're right, there's a lot to where self control is very important.

739
01:02:05,340 --> 01:02:09,660
And we know in biblical standpoint that self control is something

740
01:02:09,660 --> 01:02:11,860
that we need to be on top of and.

741
01:02:12,620 --> 01:02:17,500
You're right. So one of my you know, I might be able to drink

742
01:02:17,500 --> 01:02:20,540
like one glass of wine and I'm good.

743
01:02:20,540 --> 01:02:22,540
I'm not drunk. I'm not buzzed.

744
01:02:22,540 --> 01:02:25,260
It's just I like taste of wine. It's delicious.

745
01:02:25,260 --> 01:02:29,100
And you might have a shot of peanut butter whiskey and have to go lay down.

746
01:02:29,100 --> 01:02:34,060
It's delicious. And then there's other friends that I have that do not drink

747
01:02:34,060 --> 01:02:36,140
because they feel like it's wrong.

748
01:02:36,140 --> 01:02:40,540
So around them, I won't drink because I don't want to lead them into that

749
01:02:40,540 --> 01:02:43,500
temptation if they really feel like it's wrong for them to do so.

750
01:02:43,500 --> 01:02:48,780
It's like that James 417 again, where they feel like it's sin to do it.

751
01:02:48,780 --> 01:02:49,900
Then they're not going to do it.

752
01:02:49,900 --> 01:02:53,340
And I'm not going to encourage them to go against what they feel is wrong.

753
01:02:53,340 --> 01:03:00,780
And it like I have a friend that Lily drinks one beer and he already buzzed

754
01:03:00,780 --> 01:03:02,140
and he's drunk.

755
01:03:02,140 --> 01:03:05,340
So I usually don't try to drink around them because I don't want to encourage

756
01:03:05,340 --> 01:03:08,860
him to be drunk because I know as a brother in Christ, I don't want to

757
01:03:08,860 --> 01:03:12,620
encourage that that sin.

758
01:03:12,620 --> 01:03:14,380
That's as easy as it gets.

759
01:03:14,380 --> 01:03:18,220
And this applies in my in our perspective here.

760
01:03:18,220 --> 01:03:23,900
In our perspective here of being a sober mind, weed would count as that.

761
01:03:23,900 --> 01:03:29,900
You don't want to cause a friend to sin, but you'll have a stranger sin.

762
01:03:29,900 --> 01:03:32,380
No problem with your feet pics.

763
01:03:32,380 --> 01:03:33,020
Right.

764
01:03:33,020 --> 01:03:39,740
Well, no, that's an interesting point because if you're at a bar and there's

765
01:03:39,740 --> 01:03:44,060
an alcoholic there and you're drinking casually and they're like, well,

766
01:03:44,060 --> 01:03:49,420
everyone else is going on, that's not your responsibility, is it?

767
01:03:49,420 --> 01:03:50,140
Because you don't know.

768
01:03:52,540 --> 01:03:54,540
If you don't know they have a problem.

769
01:03:54,540 --> 01:03:55,420
All right.

770
01:03:58,220 --> 01:03:58,540
No.

771
01:03:59,260 --> 01:03:59,580
Right.

772
01:03:59,580 --> 01:04:06,940
So there's this little thing on a site that is meant for you know who is going

773
01:04:06,940 --> 01:04:07,660
there.

774
01:04:07,660 --> 01:04:09,420
Yeah, we established this one.

775
01:04:09,420 --> 01:04:11,580
Yeah, we established we established that.

776
01:04:11,580 --> 01:04:18,940
But there's intent there and taking advantage of someone else's desires and

777
01:04:18,940 --> 01:04:22,220
wants and lustful needs.

778
01:04:22,220 --> 01:04:22,780
Okay.

779
01:04:22,780 --> 01:04:25,900
If there's somebody out there who wants a picture of my big hairy feet,

780
01:04:27,180 --> 01:04:28,460
I'm not going to lie.

781
01:04:28,460 --> 01:04:31,500
I could use some cut with Brent and the person's presence this month.

782
01:04:31,500 --> 01:04:37,100
So I'm going to open up the intro and be like today's episode.

783
01:04:37,100 --> 01:04:41,660
Feet, please don't.

784
01:04:45,660 --> 01:04:46,540
This is good.

785
01:04:46,540 --> 01:04:49,580
I mean, it's been a little bit since we recorded, so we're a little rusty, but

786
01:04:51,340 --> 01:04:54,940
you know, things sweet honey iced tea.

787
01:04:54,940 --> 01:04:55,900
I'm all for you.

788
01:04:55,900 --> 01:04:56,620
Should talk to you.

789
01:04:56,620 --> 01:04:58,620
Most of them get passionate.

790
01:04:58,620 --> 01:04:59,180
I know this.

791
01:04:59,180 --> 01:05:00,220
We did.

792
01:05:00,940 --> 01:05:04,380
You know, when you get lied to, you think you're going to a new YouTube.

793
01:05:04,380 --> 01:05:09,260
It's possible to have cool videos and yet click on there and there's feet picks.

794
01:05:09,260 --> 01:05:10,700
People were trying to sell you there.

795
01:05:10,700 --> 01:05:13,500
Listen, listen, I'm not trying to get you up and riled up again.

796
01:05:15,900 --> 01:05:17,420
Just gets my gears going.

797
01:05:18,940 --> 01:05:21,020
Nobody knows what it means, but for a box.

798
01:05:22,300 --> 01:05:28,540
No, it's a we're going to wrap this up real quick, but that yeah, that just reminds me

799
01:05:28,540 --> 01:05:32,060
that there's verses that talk about passions like us being passionate.

800
01:05:32,060 --> 01:05:36,060
And like Colossians three five put to death.

801
01:05:36,060 --> 01:05:39,340
Therefore, what is earthly in you and what is earthly?

802
01:05:39,340 --> 01:05:49,340
It says sexual morality, impurity, passion, evil desire, covetness, which is idolatry

803
01:05:49,340 --> 01:05:50,460
and Colossians three.

804
01:05:51,740 --> 01:05:52,460
No, five.

805
01:05:52,460 --> 01:05:53,260
Sorry, Galatians.

806
01:05:54,220 --> 01:05:55,020
What was it?

807
01:05:55,020 --> 01:05:55,740
I'm trying to remember.

808
01:05:55,740 --> 01:05:57,580
Oh, Galatians five 24.

809
01:05:57,580 --> 01:06:00,700
Those who belong to Christ have crucified the flesh with it.

810
01:06:00,700 --> 01:06:02,060
Passions and desires.

811
01:06:04,220 --> 01:06:07,820
I think we could get away with an episode just talking about passion.

812
01:06:08,460 --> 01:06:09,820
This is why I brought that up.

813
01:06:10,380 --> 01:06:11,340
This is true.

814
01:06:13,900 --> 01:06:14,400
Right.

815
01:06:14,400 --> 01:06:15,980
Some passionate people sometimes.

816
01:06:15,980 --> 01:06:17,660
So we're passionate.

817
01:06:17,660 --> 01:06:18,160
Yeah, we're.

818
01:06:20,220 --> 01:06:22,220
The word passion, there's the kind of.

819
01:06:24,780 --> 01:06:25,660
Bring it in there.

820
01:06:26,460 --> 01:06:29,340
The word passion like in Colossians five is.

821
01:06:29,340 --> 01:06:30,300
What is it called?

822
01:06:31,100 --> 01:06:39,500
Inordinate affection is the literal translation of that word, which we take as passionate.

823
01:06:39,500 --> 01:06:44,300
But the word there is actually inordinate affection, which is pathos.

824
01:06:48,300 --> 01:06:55,740
But suffer like the passionate deed using is used by the Greeks in either a good or a bad sense.

825
01:06:55,740 --> 01:06:58,300
Affliction of the mind, emotion, passion.

826
01:06:59,340 --> 01:06:59,840
Definitely.

827
01:07:00,540 --> 01:07:04,540
But it usually revolves around affection and lust and.

828
01:07:07,180 --> 01:07:11,260
Emotional passion, which is interesting, but we might we might record a whole episode.

829
01:07:13,340 --> 01:07:13,840
Oh, yeah.

830
01:07:16,220 --> 01:07:17,260
Really easy to.

831
01:07:18,060 --> 01:07:18,560
Yeah.

832
01:07:20,540 --> 01:07:22,540
So we're going to wrap this up.

833
01:07:22,540 --> 01:07:23,660
This has been about.

834
01:07:23,660 --> 01:07:26,220
An hour, I think we I think we covered a lot of ground.

835
01:07:26,220 --> 01:07:27,020
We did a lot of stuff.

836
01:07:27,020 --> 01:07:27,820
This is good.

837
01:07:27,820 --> 01:07:29,180
Come back after three weeks.

838
01:07:30,700 --> 01:07:33,900
Yes, we will be more consistent.

839
01:07:34,700 --> 01:07:35,200
Yay.

840
01:07:35,900 --> 01:07:41,820
We're switching our post days to Friday, by the way, for anybody that's still listening

841
01:07:41,820 --> 01:07:44,620
after some of the drops of words that we have said.

842
01:07:46,780 --> 01:07:50,300
Yeah, you know, it happens and.

843
01:07:51,260 --> 01:07:51,820
Got passionate.

844
01:07:51,820 --> 01:07:55,020
Yeah, it's going to keep going.

845
01:07:55,020 --> 01:07:55,660
I keep going.

846
01:07:55,660 --> 01:07:56,460
And you know.

847
01:07:57,340 --> 01:07:57,840
Yep.

848
01:07:59,500 --> 01:08:00,700
All right, cool.

849
01:08:00,700 --> 01:08:02,860
Well, I want to say let's let's call it good.

850
01:08:03,740 --> 01:08:09,340
We're going to record as well for next Friday and next this Friday and then the next Friday

851
01:08:09,340 --> 01:08:13,100
and then the next day, then the next day, the next day, all Fridays.

852
01:08:13,580 --> 01:08:16,940
So be expecting our schedule switching to Fridays.

853
01:08:16,940 --> 01:08:19,980
It's a lot easier for us both, especially for the next two weeks.

854
01:08:19,980 --> 01:08:22,940
It's a lot easier for us both, especially with the time change.

855
01:08:24,140 --> 01:08:24,640
California.

856
01:08:28,380 --> 01:08:29,980
Hey, you didn't change.

857
01:08:29,980 --> 01:08:30,480
Don't know.

858
01:08:31,580 --> 01:08:33,740
Yeah, I changed.

859
01:08:33,740 --> 01:08:34,460
Yeah, what the heck?

860
01:08:34,460 --> 01:08:37,100
Last time you about time we could.

861
01:08:37,100 --> 01:08:38,860
I don't care where you land up politically.

862
01:08:38,860 --> 01:08:42,300
I'm just glad that we can all agree that it's dumb.

863
01:08:42,940 --> 01:08:44,460
Don't talk to me about time.

864
01:08:44,460 --> 01:08:47,900
Mr. Mr. Like an hour ahead.

865
01:08:47,900 --> 01:08:48,860
What's the future like?

866
01:08:49,740 --> 01:08:51,260
It's bland.

867
01:08:52,140 --> 01:08:53,260
Oh, wow.

868
01:08:56,060 --> 01:08:59,740
OK, well, and as with storytelling.

869
01:09:00,780 --> 01:09:01,740
Here we go.

870
01:09:01,740 --> 01:09:03,500
Dear Lord, thank you for this day.

871
01:09:03,500 --> 01:09:06,220
I thank you for all the listeners, Lord.

872
01:09:06,220 --> 01:09:11,980
I thank you from my brother, Jason, that we were able to meet up and start recording

873
01:09:11,980 --> 01:09:18,300
some more. Pray that you just take time to reflect on what we talked about today and

874
01:09:18,300 --> 01:09:24,540
that anybody hearing this be able to grow and grow in the word and experience more.

875
01:09:24,540 --> 01:09:28,460
If they have questions, Lord, that they be comfortable enough to ask or reach out to

876
01:09:28,460 --> 01:09:30,860
somebody you learn, if they feel comfortable to ask.

877
01:09:32,620 --> 01:09:37,340
Keep everybody safe, has protection on all listeners and everybody you know, love.

878
01:09:37,340 --> 01:09:42,060
Amen. Amen. All right, everybody. See you on the next episode.

879
01:09:42,060 --> 01:09:44,300
Yeah. See you on the flip flop.

880
01:09:44,300 --> 01:10:11,500
Bye.
