00:04 [MUSIC] 00:10 >> Hello and welcome back to 3, A B and today we it's a live 00:14 program. We'd already done the first hour and that this 00:17 program will repeat. If you look up 3ABN maybe find our 00:21 schedule, it will repeat again. I know later tonight and I 00:24 think Sunday afternoon, Tuesday morning and I'm right on this. 00:28 So if you missed the first hour and you want to watch it or you 00:31 go, you might think you may able to go on demand to be a 00:34 plus on-demand to watch it. But we've been talking the 00:37 first hour about the Lord's Day. Then we are switching over 00:41 to a little book that we wrote called Can The Christian Church 00:45 affirm LGBTQ and the reason we're bringing this up and I 00:49 want to set this up right away is not because we're judging 00:53 people. And when I gave a sermon some months ago, I 00:56 talked about that. We have no right to judge people with the 01:00 Bible says man looks on the outward appearance but got 01:03 looks on the heart. So you don't I don't have a right to 01:05 judge someone's heart. What we do have if you go in Matthew, 01:09 farther down in the same chapter says by their fruits, 01:13 ye shall know them. And so what we do have a right that if 01:17 someone is in fact, we're to be watchmen on the wall. And so if 01:23 we're watchmen on the wall and then our churches, when we see 01:27 sand coming into the churches, it's our duty to cry out. 01:31 It's just give the trumpet a certain sound 01:34 speak out loudly. We can just step back quietly. So what 01:39 we're wanting you. And so we're not misunderstood, especially. 01:43 You know, I try to explain this in my book. God loves 01:46 everybody. Then everybody can be say there's no sense so bad. 01:50 If you ask, God won't forgive it. That's that's that's love. 01:54 That's an amazing, amazing love that God has no matter how bad 01:58 a person had Hitler asked forgiveness, maybe did. Who 02:01 knows at Hitler really been sincere. Sorry, gone to God. 02:06 He wouldn't say that people might get upset about it. 02:09 But he says not one should be died. Not one should perish, 02:12 but but that everybody have everlasting life better. 02:15 So it's a matter of choice. Do we choose that? But what 02:18 we're talking about the differences as this LGBTQ 02:22 movement has spread so far and wide and it's involved in a 02:27 course to politics. Now, there's, you know, so much 02:30 going as I do want to get to the left or to the right. 02:32 So let's just stick with the Bible and see what the Bible 02:35 says, because again, it's it's it's a breaking of the 02:40 commandment, the adultery commandment, the 7th 02:43 commandment. So people say, and I'll explain this quickly will 02:47 go on. I've had people say to me, I just don't think it's 02:50 right that you can get up there and you talk about, you know, 02:54 the homosexual couple coming to church. You don't think they 02:58 should be baptize. You don't think they should be pastors or 03:01 or Sunday school does have a school teachers. I don't think 03:04 that's right. And what I said was, well, let me ask you a 03:07 question. If your church where they go Saturday or Sunday, 03:11 if a heterosexual comes to your church, Pastor John and come to 03:15 to your church, our church 03:17 and they say ah, 03:19 Pastor John, we love watching you on television without 3ABN, 03:24 now we live together. We're not married, but we love the Lord 03:27 and we want you to baptize this. And my husband has a 03:31 burden for, you know, the young young people he wants to teach 03:34 a partner locks are not a partner. Well, yeah, very 03:39 department, right? Sorry. So my partner wants to teach 03:43 Sunday school or 7 school and I'd like to lead the choir now. 03:47 But they say to you, we're we're not married. So would you 03:51 baptize? 03:52 >> Well, you know, that's amazing scenario had an exact 03:55 situation like that. One of my church is not okay with the 03:58 people identified the person, teaching them as practicing a 04:01 lesbian lifestyle. And I approached her and asked I 04:05 said, 04:07 I have 2 statues that are directly this question because 04:10 our young people and this is when I was past week in 04:12 California. But the state doesn't really matter in this 04:15 case. But 04:16 California's very progressive. I live there from an almost 20 04:19 years. And I said, can you just help me understand? Is this 04:23 something that 04:25 am I making the wrong assessment? 04:27 And her response was what I do in my private life this 90 up. 04:31 And I said while I totally agree with you, 04:35 you cannot live that way 04:38 and then teach our young people because they identified, 04:41 by the way, they know exactly what to look for the day these 04:44 kids came in and told, hey, we know are 7 teachers, lesbian. 04:48 She makes it obviously clear when I addressed this issue. 04:52 I said, you know, this is a been a wonderful opportunity to 04:54 get things right with the Lord. 04:55 She was not interested in that. So she left our church, didn't 04:59 decide not to come back. Now I can say you can't be 05:02 saved. I said this is a perfect opportunity to get things right 05:05 in Florida. And you know, so is bigger than just a notice. 05:10 When I talk about the works of the flesh, adultery, 05:13 fornication uncleanness lewdness. 05:17 >> To sexual immorality is broader than just write a 05:20 married couple who are not picking on or not because they 05:23 already picking on LGBTQ were saying no open scent of any 05:27 kind of the center of a sexual couple. This same thing. 05:31 They're living together. It's open cent. So it's the 05:34 same thing. There's so many things that people just do and 05:37 say, I know what the Bible says, but but, you know, 05:40 this is what I'm going to. That's what it's our 05:42 responsibility is to church. And what concerns me is our 05:46 church schools, you know, from a young age to central too 2 05:51 high schools to colleges that this is permeating through 05:55 Christian churches. So this book is written not just for 05:58 and that's why I didn't put Adventist Church right is can 06:01 the Christian church because we say the Methodist Church, 06:04 I think 6,000 churches are some have been divided over this 06:08 many churches. And so if you want this book can call us, 06:11 they're the number Texas. So put it up on the screen and 06:14 keep it going. And we literally you can get them by the case 06:17 and only pay the shipping on him. So they'll put that up 06:19 here in a moment for you. But it's it's what's happening. 06:24 Churches all over Ryan are being affected that only 5 or 06:28 10 years ago. This would have never happened. We just 06:32 listened again to say the Brooks the other night, and he 06:35 held a sermon. That's incredible views about 06:39 homosexual lifestyle. Of course, he talks on all lot, 06:42 many subject area, but it's straight out so clear and 06:45 everybody looked at him is this, you know, the legendary 06:48 pastor, this man of God and nowadays, they wouldn't even 06:51 let him in churches money to churches because in the last 15 06:55 or 20 years, the attitude among Christians and even some at 06:58 Dennis of change so much with politics, that he would name a 07:02 allowed to preach the truth and these churches. So the 07:05 Saturday, it's a sad fact. The erosion is very, very 07:09 detrimental. 07:11 >> Could you know I was going to mentioned Ryan, what you 07:15 said that in the barbershop 07:17 where the men said that's not in the Bible. They have no idea 07:21 that it's a sin. Yeah. I think the first place that we have to 07:24 look is no one wants to identify this as Sen because 07:30 once you do that at that, it's a cascade of other things that 07:35 go along with that. So if you if you don't identify as the 07:38 sand and it's not like it's the only sexual cent is just the 07:42 one that everyone is trying to make. OK? 07:46 >> As an author, I don't have to repay. Yeah, yes, yes. 07:49 Been authorized. Yeah. Legislated as acceptable. 07:53 Can't this just 07:54 let's take a hard left turn 07:57 and say in 2015 the government legislated that murder is 08:03 acceptable? 08:05 Well, I've been on the rise with let's go thought that that 08:09 was just a matter of choice. You mean you might hate 08:11 somebody that you want to kill. So right now we just passed a 08:14 law that you could kill her if you don't like. Well, the Bible 08:17 says if you hate him, you already killed them. Or if you 08:19 less, you already commit adultery. It's deeper than just 08:22 the act itself was the mindset. So stars in the heart and it 08:26 works itself out in the flash. That's why when Paul talks 08:29 about he says now he compares though fruit of the spirit. 08:32 And I'm so glad you mentioned any we can expect we can 08:35 inspect the fruit that only God can judge right. But now the 08:39 works of the flesh are evident. Now why is has the works of the 08:43 fish are evident. You don't look inside the bok of a tree 08:45 to take on the as orange is and it's on the outside. 08:49 So which are all the ones that Paul describes adultery, 08:53 fornication and claim this lewdness, idolatry, sorcery, 08:56 hatred, contention, jealousies, outbursts of wrath 08:59 Self-assemble Jen dissension, Harris Env murdered drunkenness 09:02 rivalries and the like 09:04 and he is the key 09:06 of which I tell you before hand, just as I tell you in 09:09 time past that those who practice such thing. So I want 09:13 to point out and you made a statement at the end of the 09:15 first hour that I want to I don't even want to come back to 09:18 when Danny, you said we all have sent in our lives. Let me 09:21 show you the difference between the frailty of the flesh 09:24 and the practice of the flag is a difference. And we all in 09:28 process Libyans, 1, 6, he who has begun a good work and you 09:32 will completed. There's transgression. There's cent and 09:36 there's iniquity. When you study the bible, they are not 09:39 the same transgression is the unintentional sin. I didn't 09:44 mean to kill him that way. And the Bible even talk so that 09:48 if the man strikes another man and kills him unintentionally, 09:52 he has to pay a price. This is in the book of Deuteronomy. 09:55 Then there's Sen that a person, the Bible to ascend that does 09:59 not lead to death in us and that leads to death to send 10:02 that leads to death as the sun that you don't rip into, 10:04 right. Because it now goes to the 3rd category is not 10:08 transgressions knots in, but it's now a mic with t that this 10:12 is iniquity because this has been authorized as a practice. 10:16 Yeah. So frailty when we say, well, we all have sinned. 10:20 I want I want to address that because none of us has a 10:22 perfect yet. But the Lord says I began a good work and you I'm 10:25 going to completed. We will be transformed to be fashion like 10:29 his glorious spotty. So we're not perfect yet. We're not 10:31 calling out stuff because we we will arrive. But we saying the 10:35 practice he those who practice righteousness is righteous. 10:39 Those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of 10:43 God. So the practice Danny's, which is saying has been 10:46 authorized and here's the danger. 10:49 The Christian churches, many of them have accepted the 10:51 practice. That's right. An abandoned God's word. That's 10:55 right. That's what this program is about. You know, I think 10:58 >> 2 and I think it's really important to to stress this 11:02 that we 11:04 so we here at this table are heterosexual and we have this 11:07 we we don't have 11:09 homeless sexual desires. There are people, Christian 11:13 people who have homosexual desires. But we're talking 11:16 about the practice because you can help how you feel God has 11:20 to change your nature. Guy has to change your appetite and 11:24 that can take time sometimes for some people. It's been in 11:28 some pain is and for some people it takes a long time. 11:31 The key is the relationship with God. And the practice is 11:35 to not practice the act of it and you can help your 11:39 attraction at that point. But you can give it to God, 11:43 just let him change your nature because the Bible says, you 11:47 know, can can the Ethiopian change his skin on the left is 11:51 spot-on. 11:52 >> But God can show our nature. Absolutely. And then and it 11:56 takes a process that, you know, there's if I'm being completely 11:59 honest, 12:01 there's some people, you know, even go as far as to say, 12:04 maybe some people in the church that are many years ago as an R 12:08 as a Christian, 12:09 maybe even sometimes when I take my eyes off Jesus, 12:13 there's some people in the church. I just want to office 12:15 left a mess out. Yeah. Haha, 12:19 I don't do that. 12:20 >> Because I I'm not going to practice that. 12:23 >> However, it still is an issue. If I allow that 12:28 this taste or hatred for a brother and my heart 2 to 12:31 develop into continue to grow, it is something because that's 12:35 where plastered rested earlier. If you hate your brother, 12:38 you know, in your heart and you've already killed him. 12:41 So what exactly what you're saying? You know, we don't 12:43 practice it. That's the main thing there is that desire and 12:47 you have to do with that desire and that desire can, of course, 12:50 lead to something great that you don't want. You know what 12:52 that fund to get bigger. Someone may air take me just 12:56 like or say something to do. Something that makes me really 12:58 makes the carnal flesh may move to go down 13:02 but or maybe even have a negative thought towards that 13:04 person. But now I have to deal with that in my heart between 13:07 the lowest lord. Take that from me. And as you look to Christ, 13:11 as you pray as you give that to him over time, he will take 13:15 that. Oh, man, that feeling that fall, that negative 13:19 feeling of thought and he will choose a way out of your life. 13:23 There. Have I have met a man who have lived 13:28 homosexual lifestyles, very much practice. A good went from 13:33 practicing it to just desiring it strongly desired. They stop 13:36 practicing it. But then they just went from practicing at 13:38 the strongly designed to now they don't have that desire 13:41 anymore. And they're married with a wife and kids. Yeah, 13:44 I mean, got you can see that transformation. Yes, and you 13:46 see it. The got got gifts. That's what the gospel does. 13:50 And that's what the power of God does. And that's what we're 13:51 seeing. But yet today, if you talk against this in the 13:54 culture that we live in, where you're a homophobe, you know, 13:57 a phobic that's, you know, I'm not I'm not around. I'm not. 14:01 And I don't suffer with a retina phobia lane, OK, and 14:04 e**** a phobia for those of, you know, given examples may be 14:07 a fear of spiders. The spiders in directed. I don't fear 14:11 spiders. I don't have that phobia, but I got my art. 14:15 Sometimes I'll see a rather interesting spot to watch it. 14:18 And, you know, I was so cool, something really nice. But what 14:20 am I going to invite this thing into my home and come dance 14:23 around in the sheets with me and my wife and our bed? 14:25 Absolutely not to have a distaste on that. You love me 14:30 some spiders out there and we and then cool with them doing 14:33 their thing outside. But am I going to allow that into my 14:36 home within the safety of my home within the sanctity of my 14:38 bit? I know that's not the best example. But it had kind of 14:41 gives forth an idea of it. Yes, we want to love these 14:45 people who have these issues. We all have issues where love 14:48 each other were 2 were to embrace each other with a prey 14:50 with each other, were to be patient with one another. 14:53 But do we allow the pedophile to come into the church, 14:57 take on the role of youth and teach our kids right now? 15:00 No, I know there there's lines to be drawn and we have to say, 15:03 Lord, you know, we're going to follow in his leadership. 15:06 Yeah, no, no trust something here because I know is that 15:08 people hear what we say and then some people 15:11 hear what one not saying. 15:13 >> Okay. I want to suggest that for a moment and just be very 15:17 candid. I I want to intentionally bring this up. 15:20 We're not talking about reparative or conversion 15:23 therapy for a while, right? This is not what this book that 15:26 is about like this about what the Bible says, right? Because 15:29 that is another avenue people called down and try to tag 15:33 people like Christians and say, you know, they're trying to 15:36 injure us to trying to shock us out of this or give us some 15:40 kind of drugs or ties to a bed until we confess, OK, I'm no 15:44 more a LGBTQ. This is not we're not talking about conversion or 15:48 reparative therapy. That is not what this is talking about. 15:51 Cuts by Yvonne when the first tower was in the EU said to 15:55 Ryan Reed for Sea level, yes, OK, now we're going go back to 15:58 that passage. 15:59 Then First Corinthians chapter 6 reverses 9 down to verse 11 16:04 to go there. But this is what we're talking about. 16:07 The Bible start in First Corinthians chapter 6 verse 9. 16:10 Do you not know 16:12 that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God do 16:16 not be deceived. Neither us a break now fornicators nor 16:21 idolaters nor adulterers nor homosexuals North sodomites. 16:27 North feeds north coverages nor drunkards nor revilers nor 16:33 extortioners will inherit the kingdom of God. Now we stopped 16:36 there last time. Yes. So I always say well, I mean, 16:39 why just picking on the side of my son, homosexuals fees going 16:42 Trump as a con X sources not gone. I dollars and not going 16:46 either mall doesn't separate from the Bible. Doesn't 16:48 separate enough that they all send. That's right. But here is 16:51 with the conversion comes line. All right. Sarah people thought 16:54 the b*** of jokes. That's all right. First 11 16:57 and such and Paul's Day. Yes, yeah. It this a new the 17:01 same 2015. All right happening. Although this was happening, 17:06 then Saddam and tomorrow as time and going after man right 17:09 there, knocking down lots door to get to them and and such 17:13 were some of you somebody watching this program 17:17 understand freedom when Jesus 17:21 and such with some of you what happened. But but you awash but 17:27 us sanctify. Yeah. But you justified in the name of the 17:31 Lord. Jesus by the spirit of our got a minute to. Yeah. 17:35 Danny Lavonne, thank you for that. Because you might think 17:38 this is I can give us a my neighbor to get mad at me. 17:42 The most beautiful approached Salivation 17:46 in Jesus. 17:47 You might not think it's under that kind of title. I want to 17:49 tell you, you've got to read the book and understand this 17:51 about salvation and change that comes through Christ. Not 17:54 conversion therapy. Reparative therapy. Not shot. Yeah. 17:58 I think will hurt show young people. Are you all the people? 18:00 Yes, Jesus can change is all a im not been changed and body 18:05 and he still get me ready for the kingdom. Thank thank you 18:08 for saying that, John, because I think it's so interesting. 18:11 >> That, you know, we've written a number of books and 18:14 literally millions of them go out. This one was been out in 18:18 the last few months. There's far less being ordered of this 18:22 by church members than any other book. And as we've talked 18:27 to people, they say we agree with you 100%. I've had people 18:31 donate and say, I just don't know and want anybody to know. 18:35 But but I don't want to get this out. I've got a son or, 18:39 you know, granddaughter, Oregon, you know, of a brother 18:42 or sister and their homosexual. And I don't want to offend 18:46 these people. So when it comes to the orders, these other 18:50 books are flying off the shelves and this one. So thank 18:53 you for sending that to be bold enough to love people enough to 18:57 tell them the truth. There's nothing in here that it's 18:59 offensive. Yeah. And that's the word of God as offensive to 19:02 units because it's not my opinion. We just literally the 19:06 bottom together and we put Bible scriptures. We tried to 19:10 make it clear that they're the only difference between the 19:13 LGBTQ community and any other Sen is the fact that everybody 19:19 else, for instance, there is no group of alcoholics that I know 19:23 of that are big enough and powerful enough, an influential 19:27 the change laws. It change laws and say, well, yes, I'm I'm an 19:31 alcoholic and you know, and and I'm a drunken. But when I do, 19:35 I'm not in control myself. So if I run over somebody, 19:38 if I hit somebody, I killed somebody. There's nobody trying 19:41 to. Everybody's knows it's wrong. There's no group or 19:45 prostitutes trying to change the laws and come into the 19:48 church and say, look, I know of a prostitute, but hey, I've got 19:52 to find work. I love the Lord. I want to be I want to teach 19:56 their young man. You know what? You got 8 young men IV 19:59 equipped, prostituted, one pastor. But, you know, there's 20:03 really nothing wrong with this. I mean, all of us, they want to 20:06 ask those questions. People think that Ludacris, somebody 20:10 would do that. But its exact same thing as we mentioned 20:13 earlier, whether 10 or sexual couple not married are 20:16 homosexual, but we're so afraid of offending people and all the 20:20 while it's growing and growing and growing and our young 20:24 people in our church, everybody needs this book not because we 20:28 wrote it but because they need the information in this book. 20:31 So. 20:33 >> Be brave enough tonight. You can call right now. How do 20:34 we get the book Im on? Call 6, 1, 8, 20:37 >> 627-4651. And you can order by the case. There are 200 20:42 books in a case and all you pay for is the shipping. 28 $1 for 20:47 the shipping to and it's free. The book is free to you. 20:51 You just pay for the shipping. 20:53 Yeah. So many there's so much confusion about this topic 20:58 because the coach or has done so much 2 to brainwash our 21:02 children are young people. Most of our young people think 21:06 it's OK. 21:07 >> They do not cut social years. Yeah. And it's OK and we 21:12 all we want to let them know. 21:14 >> Is want need to counteract the counterfeit. That's really 21:18 what's happening because we have to give a dust at the Lord 21:21 on this topic. 21:23 >> And that's what this book does before we switch topics in 21:26 a few minutes. Can someone read a few scriptures in Romans? 21:28 Maybe? Oh, yeah. He's got on that because we want to talk 21:31 about reminds me the barbershop, the guys who no, 21:37 this is one of the watching right now. This is one of the 21:40 passengers I read to them to read them 3 or 4 different 21:42 passages from scripture because they they ask me to said, 21:44 you know, but what the Bible say that what about that? 21:46 Because they were trying to stand on the fact that, 21:48 >> you know, will help them? I wouldn't say that someone had 21:50 told them that not because I studied heard somebody else. 21:54 Tell them about what does it say? Homosexuality is a sin. 21:57 So they were challenging me. What about that? Haha, I 22:01 started to come right to released after one eventually. 22:04 And let me read this to this Romans chapter one verse. 22:06 26 to 32 in Jesus or Roman ruins here. Paul is riding and 22:10 he's writing about those past centers who got had the deal 22:14 with their issues in their their last and burning for less 22:17 for one another and giving up 2 ball passions. What does the 22:20 gets nature as you'll see here? And he talks and he wrote a 22:23 chapter would begin with. There's 26 notice what he says. 22:26 Speaking of the unrighteous, he said for this reason God gave 22:29 them up to vile passions. God play with them. But they 22:32 weren't listening. They were listing the most part. They 22:34 were doing what they wanted to do. That's what we're talking 22:35 about. People going against what got us saying to do what 22:39 they want to do because again, there are being led by the 22:43 spirit of sin that the Cardinal Nature, rather than the spirit 22:45 of God. And so here it says for this reason, God gave them up 22:48 for vile passions for even their women exchanged. Notice 22:52 the natural use for what is against nature knows how uses 22:56 these words against nature. 22:57 >> God has a design. That's his design. Is the perfect design 23:01 won because the slippery 8 or the knows what's best for you. 23:05 But notice what it says about the city's to simple nature of 23:07 these people. First, 27 likewise. Also the man leaving 23:12 the natural use of the woman. What he would have got to out 23:15 him. The EU man should leave his father and mother and be 23:19 brought together with his wife with a woman and they should 23:22 become one flesh. It says here leaving the natural use of the 23:26 woman burning him their last for one another mid morning and 23:30 last for another man. Men with minutes is committing. What is 23:33 shameful? What has got attitude towards this. It shameful these 23:37 design. He loves the homosexual, but he's he's he's 23:41 ashamed of it. It's shameful to you because it's not what his 23:44 plan is for your life. It's isn't receiving in them that 23:47 themselves the penalty of their error, which was do if you keep 23:50 reading here at CES and even as they did. And I love how pole 23:54 Wright says, because he doesn't just do the homosexuals under 23:56 the bus. The always includes it with the other types of since 24:00 that's what we're bringing out here. And that's it for that 24:02 matter. What it is that so we're not here to just pick one 24:05 homosexuals. It goes on to say here again, verse 28, any even 24:09 as they did not like to retain got in their knowledge, God 24:13 gave them over to debase mind to do those things which are 24:16 not fitting being filled with on righteousness and then use 24:20 the word here, sexual immorality or since dealing 24:24 with not, you know, the not within the nature or the design 24:27 that got mid for to be sexually. But but outside of 24:30 that wickedness cut asness maliciousness full of envy, 24:35 murder, strife, deceit, evil mindedness. They are whispers 24:40 Backbiters haters of God filing proud boasters inventors of 24:43 evil things. Disobedient to parents is is in discerning 24:47 untrustworthy, an loving and forgiving unmerciful whom 24:51 knowing the righteous judgment of God. Here's the thing. 24:54 What is this a God gave them over to a debasement? Not 24:57 because golf is like, you know what? I want those people. 25:00 One little the ones, you know, what is it what it says he gave 25:03 them over. It means he backed off. He said, OK, I'll try and 25:06 they've made their decision. Why? Here's the key. It's is 25:09 down who do not point the righteous judgment of God. 25:12 They knew got a plan. They knew what God's way was. But it says 25:16 that those who practice such things are deserving of death, 25:19 not only do the same note, notice not only do the same but 25:23 also approve of those who practice them. And still right 25:27 here, Paula saying, look, this is not God's plan. God loves 25:31 them. But if these people still with this, this evil 25:34 recalcitrant rebellious spirit say, I know what God's word 25:37 says, but I'm going to do what I want to do. Got says, you 25:40 know what, I can you know, I love them, but I I can't do 25:43 anything with this person. And therefore, he will give 25:46 them over to the spirit that they're choosing to be led by. 25:49 And that's the spirit of the devil. But 25:51 >> but that but the part that you just read to about taking 25:54 pleasure and those that practices, yes, proving and 25:58 approving that that is a whole other. That's one of the things 26:02 that we have to be cut. 26:04 >> Well, and an improvement in. I want to say this also in 26:07 another strong language, please understand, say this with 26:10 kindness and with with as much love as I can muster because we 26:12 would be very direct with us. Just like with every soon the 26:16 wages of sin is what death death. All of that list. 26:18 We just read what he said again, who practice such things 26:22 are deserving of death again, soon leads to death. God 26:27 doesn't want us to die. It is one of the to perish. But have 26:29 we remain in that practice of sin and allow ourselves to 26:33 become a slave to that sinful lifestyle? And we never turn it 26:37 over to the Lord. We keep in a rebellious spirit, a living 26:40 contrary to God's design. Eventually the Holy Spirit's 26:44 Whisper. The Holy Spirit's Call. It's quieter and quieter 26:47 and quieter and quieter until eventually walk completely out 26:50 of the will of the Lord. God can reach us anymore 26:52 because we have harden our hearts so hard that he has to 26:56 say they've been turned over to basically he said because they 26:59 do not love the truth. He said I will give them over and will 27:02 lead them to have strong delusions to continue to 27:05 believe a lie. 27:06 >> And you know exactly what's happening with a lot of people 27:08 very wonderfully approach. Try and beautifully put the key 27:12 words that came out in both. What I read in Calais shuns my 27:14 Ryan just a moment. That's what practice and practice and nice 27:19 in that practice is going to guarantee you're going to be 27:23 destroyed. Yeah, he said this. But you put the whole category. 27:27 While we're saying today, Danny and I love the fact that you 27:29 guys approaches so seriously. So Scripture, Ali, is that 27:32 you're saying somewhere along the way, legislators decided to 27:36 pick one of those out and approve it. It didn't say even 27:40 approve such things. Another way for prove legally is 27:44 legislate, right? They approved. It gets approved is 27:47 now law of the land. We're saying no, it's not a proven 27:50 cause word. It's approved a law of the land. So we have to make 27:53 a decision. The Christian church has to make a decision. 27:56 Do we follow what the world approved? Do we follow what the 28:00 government improved or do we follow what God approved? 28:03 That's that simple. When you follow a God approves, then you 28:07 know, you're not going down the wrong path. And what? And and 28:12 and and and I want to just 28:14 do this back over to you after the statement here, somebody 28:17 might say, 28:19 but I was born this way. Yeah. Even the answer to that 28:23 chase is set to make a day Ms 28:27 when he said do not be shocked. I tell thee you must be born 28:30 again and Nick and a miss. Are you saying that? I mean, 28:36 do I go back into my mother's womb and come back? All right. 28:40 He said, no, you must be born of the spirit point of the 28:44 water and up the spirits here things. So this is a new birth, 28:48 even if you're born in an alcoholic environment. But some 28:51 children are born, you know, Yvonne, and that naturopathic 28:55 feel we had 2 doctors agree, you know, this children born 28:59 predisposed to drugs, alcohol, their son environments. We all 29:02 know born where this a practice in the family and some people. 29:07 That's what my mom did. That's my brother did that. So my 29:09 sister is they see this practice and they take it up as 29:12 a inherited tendency. But it doesn't have to be cultivated 29:16 because Jesus can break any bondage that holds us that this 29:20 is what that and so don't be afraid about distributing this 29:22 booklet. Don't think it was all my neighbors going to leap into 29:25 the ball. Well, Tom people, my car, no, it is not keen to 29:30 watch this. 29:31 You could be silent now and your neighbors will say when 29:34 they are standing in the judgment park odd. 29:37 I did somebody tell me I could have been saved. I've given up 29:42 all that 29:43 and nobody ever told me. And Jeremiah talked about this 29:47 with the chosen a vision. He says the reason why they 29:49 continue doing what they're doing because nobody repainted 29:53 them of their sent. Nobody show them the way. So thank you, 29:56 Dan and Yvonne for being willing and loving people 29:58 enough to tackle this topic. 29:59 >> Yeah. And you some person is very well-known. Tell me said 30:03 you just put a target on your back by by writing this book 30:07 because this is a powerful movement then and they're not 30:11 going like this at all. But my thing is I am 72 years old 30:15 already. So I couldn't live a long time that the that the 30:17 best. Yeah. So just do what we feel is right and tell the 30:22 truth. And again, so it it's only about open our rights and 30:26 no matter what that sense. Yes, yeah, God loves everybody. 30:30 And that's the beauty of it. As you said, people say, 30:33 well, I was born that way. Well, each of us has 3 guys. 30:36 We're mourned the like women if we want is not natural right to 30:41 assess. So that doesn't mean then right? As you get older. 30:43 And John, we say everyone, we save it. So we love this from. 30:47 We're going to go, you know, I will turn sleep with her and 30:49 don't know. You have to learn to ask God to help you 30:54 overcome. That's right. Because people in bonds that way, 30:57 I'm sure she was a trend thankfully attracted to men and 31:00 not women. And yeah, so it's a matter that there is no sand so 31:05 big that God can forgive a and there's not so small that he 31:09 doesn't care about it. No problems. But people is like 31:13 that. Always really trying to say in this book is it is the 31:17 sand. But God can forgive it, ran. Can he and give you 31:20 victory over? If God can give you victory over this and then 31:25 his his death was in vain. And, you know, this whole plan 31:29 of salvation was in vain. And there's no sense God can 31:32 give us victory over any San if we really wanted. And that's 31:36 what we want to encourage you today. Yeah, you could. You 31:39 could not have set up a most beautiful segue to that. 31:41 >> Plan of South haha. Most beautiful segue to salvation 31:47 because I think that outside of all the facts and and 31:51 scriptures that in this book that I strongly encourage you 31:53 to get when we get them out. Hey, we have him out of it. 31:57 Yeah, I want that. But the law convict that person. What the 32:01 Lord in this work, you know, you get all the junk mail. 32:05 This is not junk mail. This is mail that will help you 32:07 understand the beauty of salvation. 32:09 >> And as before we switch, I do want to say this because I 32:12 don't think people in our church and in the Christian 32:14 churches, most people don't really understand how huge an 32:19 issue this is. What are we just read from one of our own 32:24 university school papers written 32:28 for the public to read and they're upset because across 32:32 the street from the university, the coming out ministries 32:36 purchased a building to to to minister to people 32:41 to LGBTQ. These are all people who have been live that 32:44 lifestyle who God is giving them victory. Okay. Ines, 32:48 Yvonne and I read what this person was saying, who's the 32:52 head of an LGBT group there said we don't want this 32:55 ministry even across the street because and I'm gonna pair 32:58 fries. One of one of our people were vulnerable. They're down 33:02 that day and they drive out of the campus and they look over 33:06 and see this building and they go over there and someone from 33:10 that ministry will tell them they need to change their 33:14 lifestyle and intel and that Jesus wants them to change 33:18 their lifestyle. And they said that's not true. He does not. 33:21 So we don't want him gone over there. That's that conversion 33:24 therapy. And they even suggested it would be against 33:27 Michigan law. Now, these are college students are not second 33:30 3rd, great, but I'm saying I would never dream that one of 33:33 our own university papers would allow that time and say that 33:39 this these people, we are going to run these people that is 33:42 vulnerable and they're going to think that this is the sand and 33:46 then they need to ask Jesus to forgive them. You know, that's 33:49 how bad this is. Folks plays order this book. Let's put it 33:52 up on the screen one more time. 33:54 And so then we're going to switch topics but was put up 33:58 the books. And so that our cartons of the 200 and so you 34:03 can call 6, 1, 8, 6, 2, 7, 4, 6, 5, 1, There are $28 for the 34:09 200 books. And that's just for the shipping cost. The books 34:12 are absolutely free and they can also that they will put out 34:15 a a text or email. 34:17 >> Address also can text to 2 to 8. 34:21 >> 3, 9, 7, 5, or you can email us at live at 3 ABN DOT TV. 34:27 >> In those ways you can get it. There's a huge shaking 34:30 going on in the church right now. They say will someday when 34:33 the shaking know there's a shaking now and I urge our 34:37 churches, our our universities, our health systems, they're 34:41 having to make choices. And so far they're not a lot of good 34:44 ones because they're compromising with the 34:46 government. The government. Some of the law's now say if 34:50 you want to student loan, we don't we don't allow that if 34:54 the university is not X pro LGBTQ. So therefore, a lot of 35:00 students need these loans. So some of the universities are 35:03 saying, hey, you know, will allow this on campus. We let 35:07 them. But you can't go on campus and say anything 35:10 negative or even say that LGBTQ this lifestyle is us. And you 35:15 can talk about the dead, the drug addicts, they're you 35:18 anybodys on drugs. You can talk about alcohol. You can talk 35:21 about prostitution. You can talk about adultery, but you're 35:24 not allowed to talk about LGBTQ. That's how serious this 35:27 is, folks. And so if we don't do it, if we don't get the 35:30 message out, maybe you don't want to talk to somebody 35:32 personally, but you can get the book new talking for you. 35:36 I know some people are just placing them in different 35:38 places. Wow and allow people to pick them up and there there 35:42 are people that want to know the truth. So I believe that 35:45 silence is is deadly silence in this case can be deadly not 35:50 only for others before ourselves, that we did a lot of 35:53 people enough to tell them the truth. So we're not trying to 35:55 sell you something. We're actually giving you something. 35:59 That's right. The sin of omission. 36:02 >> Is knowing that you should have done something and you did 36:05 nothing. That's what the Senate Commission means. Hey, I 36:08 support it. 36:09 Not going to speak against it. You can be in any category. 36:13 You have to allow Jesus Christ to the Jesus we're talking 36:16 about today. 36:17 You see this world is going to soon pass away. And by the way, 36:21 need to make this point. We read the New Testament. 36:24 But you know that in the days of the Apostle Paul, there was 36:27 no New Testament. Yeah, it was known that a job that I wasn't 36:31 even the New Testament, right. That did not did not exist. 36:34 Even after the death of John Ryan, the apostles, the last 36:37 one to die. There was no New Testament. What are they 36:40 reading? The Old Testament and the Old Testament says right 36:42 here in Leviticus 2013, if a man lies with a male as he lies 36:48 with the woman, both of them had have committed an 36:51 abomination. That's what they were reading from. It was 36:54 simply quoting what was available in their day. What 36:57 the prophets and the and the and the and a of the patriarchs 37:00 who already had. So they would not come up with something new. 37:03 And Danny on the snow, I heard a a I mean, it's amazing to me. 37:08 I can see why we are where we are today. 37:11 I watched a program with a group of clergy 37:15 said the reason why Paul has this in his writings. He is he 37:19 had issues with women. 37:21 No, Paul, the Apostle had problem with women. That's why 37:26 he targeted them so much. That is what people the 37:28 doctorate degrees in Dallas. Those people who pull those 37:31 theories from first and second opinions himself revised 37:37 version, which will be people that as Paul has, as Paul also 37:44 says, these are 37:46 Satan's ministers to transform themselves into ministers of 37:50 righteousness whose and will be, according to their words, 37:53 don't be fearful of something that one day people in the 37:56 kingdom. Linda, thank you. That you showed them a better 37:58 way. Yeah. All right. Speaking salvation. Yeah. And talk about 38:04 absolutely about. I want to start off. 38:09 >> Well, salvation obviously begins and ends in Christ. 38:13 At the end of the day, you cannot have salvation outside 38:16 of the person of Christ. And, you know, the techs that 38:19 come to mind, I know there are so many texts that come to mind 38:23 when it comes talks about the gospel and salvation. But for 38:26 whatever reason, the lower put my eyes right on this one 38:28 revelation chapter 12 and verse 11 and it says this, it says 38:32 and they overcame him my the blood of the lamb. That's 38:36 right. By the word of their testimony that they did not 38:39 love their lives to the death. I love that the gospel begins 38:43 and ends with the work of Christ. But we want to make it 38:47 very clear. And I know we're going to get into this and have 38:49 a little time here. But I want to make this very clear. 38:51 The gospel is not a one time thing counter to many people 38:56 that in the opinion, many people today in the modern 38:59 society have made salvation out to be this one moment where 39:03 they go to any of it, maybe their favorite gospel songs 39:07 playing in the background just as I am their favorite him or 39:10 whatever. And they're called to come down, say the sinners 39:13 prayer repeat after me. And in that moment to give a sincere 39:16 as they may be there led to believe that because they've 39:19 repeated some words, they've said some words that they may 39:21 have it, you know, sincerely meant it that because they've 39:25 done that once they for ever are saved from that point hole. 39:30 And then we know that salvation in is absolutely wrapped up in 39:34 Christ and in the justification is in a moment, you can be 39:38 justified. You can be forgiven in a moment. But I love the 39:41 fact that we have the sanctuary because the sanctuary helps 39:44 align out for us. The process of salvation that yes, Christ 39:49 died for our sins. And if we believe in him and we put our 39:53 trust in the blood of the lamb, we can be justified. We can 39:56 have a better hanging over our life. That's is justified 39:59 forgiven. But is it a one-time type thing where I walk away 40:02 and I say I'm saved and that's it. I don't have to do anything 40:04 else. No. Huge long as you're drawing the breath of life. 40:07 Paul says he brings up every day. He died daily and it was 40:11 it was a it was a daily relationship with God. And we 40:14 see that in the pattern of the sanctuary your way. Oh, God, 40:17 some 77 13 and is in the sanctuary. The courtyard. 40:20 When you walk through the gate when you come to 40:23 the altar sacrifice, that's the cross. 40:26 >> The steer your your salvation begins with starting 40:28 with accepting Jesus Christ as Lord and savior and the than 40:32 what the Lamb has done for you and taking your place. And then 40:36 the next step you come to rector in the courtyard is the 40:39 lei for his blood. His work has washed you from your sense. 40:43 If you accept ing of that now he wants to cleanse. You would 40:45 wash away. Your passing was the washing from nurses. That court 40:49 yard work is justification. When you get in, you can and 40:52 you can experience that. Yes, in a moment. It's amazing. 40:56 It's powerful. It's amazing. But this year's does the 40:58 salvation of Planet got stop right? There is a stop in the 41:01 courtyard. The even jump popular evangelical gospel 41:04 today says that's exactly what it is. Just, professor. I'm 41:07 just be baptized. Your saved. That's right. Yeah. Just haha. 41:11 That's one of the yes. In this moment you have been declared 41:15 right to sue have been declared justified by the blood of the 41:18 lamb. But wait a second. Paul says 41:20 >> that it was from glory to glory from Faith to Faith Day 41:24 by day. He wants to cleanse you and renew you. That is looking 41:27 at a mere were changed to a renewed day by day in the Lord. 41:31 So he says coming to the holy place and there you have the 41:35 table showbread the word of God. You just eat of me daily 41:38 taking the word of God taking the bread of life daily. 41:40 And then the only light source is the 7 branch campus to do 41:44 just that. I'm a lot of the world and there the oil was 41:46 there. The work of the Holy spirit. That, of course, 41:48 is cleansing you day by day changing shaping EU emoting you 41:52 and in God is working on you. And then you've got the altar 41:55 of incense right there, which is representative of the 41:58 prayers that got Christ intercession is daily 42:01 intercession. The courtyard is the justification. When you get 42:05 into that holy place. Now the sanctification begins to try 42:08 and limitation Paul Meats and made it very clear that it's 42:11 got to God's will is your sanctification. So you have 42:15 justification in sanctification and those 2 things must be a 42:18 reality ended in the process of salvation and the plan of 42:22 salvation in order for us to reach that glorification time, 42:25 Jesus comes back and he get the changes are vile body. It makes 42:29 it like in his glorious body and were changed and made ready 42:32 for the kingdom of God. That's just a quick overview. Let now 42:35 pastor, OK, I clean it up for me. 42:37 >> Going I'm going to use this as the trampoline to segue from 42:41 what we just talked about because people today now might 42:44 say since it's been legislated, it's not sent any longer. 42:49 First, John, one percent, 42:52 if we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves right on the 42:55 day and the truth is not in a scheme. The government can call 42:59 it whatever they want to put the government's, not the one 43:02 that is building the kingdom for us to. Yeah. I think they 43:05 got this kingdom not here that can go up in flames. 43:08 But if you want to live eternally, why would anybody 43:11 not want that? 43:13 If we say we have no send whatever the categories for all 43:16 these things? Plus all the outbursts wrath and adultery 43:19 and fornication uncleanness and lewdness and fever in. If we 43:23 say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves like first 9, 0, 43:29 here is to 43:30 bridge over troubled waters if we confess our sins. 43:36 That's right. He is faithful and just to forgive us, our 43:42 sins and cleanse us from all in on righteousness. And so what 43:50 is the whole program today? The Lord's Day, the LGBTQ 43:55 community? Can we have from it? The answer is absolutely not. 43:58 We can from a new day of worship because there is none 44:00 the bottles and affirm that we can from a new way of life 44:03 outside of God's plan for man one because there is none. 44:06 Yes, and we cannot from another way of salvation other than the 44:09 way through Jesus. When Ryan talked about that, I'm just 44:12 kind of brigette. Again, justification is the immediate 44:16 phase. And what does that mean when you confession of sins and 44:19 you turn your life over the Jesus, you are immediately 44:22 taken off of death row and that penalty of sand is no longer 44:26 hanging over your head around. Dan Ryan, take you to the 44:30 Holy Place. Sanctification 44:33 justification is the immediate phase. Sanctification is the 44:37 continual phase, right? Which is every day when you needed 44:40 that bread was praying. When you being clans and committing 44:43 a lot to cross in the day by day basis, you can now be safe 44:46 from the power of sin. You don't have to go back to this 44:49 right. Any more than a murder has to go back to killing and 44:52 allies to go back to line and that defense to go back to 44:54 Robin Banks and you don't have to go back. There is continual 44:57 deliverance. That's the sanctification 45:00 when Jesus comes. Join you on this now. That's the internal 45:03 phase. When we are now finally say from the presence of Sen no 45:07 more 45:08 alcohol stores, no more marijuana dealers are no more 45:12 drug pusher is no prostitution. No algae. People around you. 45:16 No more. No more. Any other son? No more. None. No more 45:20 shall be no more death. No crime was Arnold Payne. So 45:23 here's what salvation is simply in a nutshell. 45:25 Do you want to be safe from the road you're on now and we are 45:30 on death row without Jesus. He can take us off of death row 45:34 if we confess our sins good as they will want to be free. 45:38 He said just confess that if you confess, we'll talk about 45:41 confession on a Wednesday night Bible study. What does that 45:44 mean 45:45 if you confess that he is faithful? And just let me just 45:48 use a story in the Bible because, Dan, you based this on 45:50 LGBTQ issues on the issue of adultery, 45:54 what about the woman caught in adultery that the that the pre 45:57 said you need to stone her Jesus would not take a stone up 46:01 to stone. Those in the LGBTQ community known he says go and 46:06 sine no more. Yes, the woman wear your accusers and notice 46:11 what he said. This is going to blow you away because you 46:14 might. I think we have condemning 46:17 the LGBTQ community. No, we're not. We're condemning the 46:21 practice of the LGBTQ lifestyle when not condemning the people 46:27 because Jesus said for God's cent, a not a cent of the world 46:30 to condemn the world, but that the world to him might be 46:33 saved. So what happened? Jesus was made in the form of 46:37 man. He came in human flesh to condemn soon in the flash. 46:41 He never came to condemn centers. So so what is 46:45 salvation? Not the condemnation of the person but the 46:48 condemnation of the practice and the invitation to not lose 46:53 on the greatest gift to him. The wages of sine is death. 46:56 That's coming. 46:58 But when you have the opportunity to get the gift, 47:00 the gift of God is eternal life. Why would we not want at 47:04 any that's salvation and not sharing the? 47:07 >> This beautiful we we you are talking about one saved always 47:11 saved. Isn't there some scriptures and the Bible that 47:15 say that once your savior always saved? 47:17 >> Well, there's not one that says there's not one is I hear 47:20 that. So several text that clearly it clearly indicate 47:24 that that is not the case at all limit. Let me give you a 47:28 some some text here. So we're people get this idea from his 47:31 Romans. Chapter 8, for instance, example, is one tax 47:34 which some people might come away with that Roman chapter 8 47:37 verse 30 39, it's his friend persuaded neither death nor 47:40 life nor angels nor principalities nor powers nor 47:42 things present nor things to come nor height nor depth nor 47:46 any other created thing shall be able to separate us from the 47:49 love of God, which is. 47:51 >> In crush Jesus, our Lord. And so they say, see, we can 47:54 once we come to Christ and his love, we can't be separated 47:57 from it. 47:58 Well, you will be separated from the love of God and God 48:01 never stopped loving you. No matter how horrible of a 48:04 center you are. No matter how big of a prodigal you may have 48:07 been God's love, never ceases. But that does not mean that 48:11 your free will is taken away, that you can't walk away from 48:15 that anytime you so choose. And there's some clear 48:18 indications of scripture, for instance, if you look at the 48:21 parable of the Unforgiven survey found in Matthew Chapter 48:24 18 versus 21 to 35, they're not going to able to receded, 48:27 but the king, of course, forgave for the servant who 48:29 owed him a great debt. This is an example. He forgives them 48:33 and then you know it doing the same serve. It went out and 48:36 found another fellow servant who owed him a smaller amount 48:39 and showed him no mercy to notice. He was in favor with 48:42 God. God forgave them. I would say this brother received 48:45 forgiveness he received salvation, right? He was not a 48:49 God did not condemn him. But when he went out in the 48:52 aftermath of that salvation in the aftermath of that 48:54 forgiveness and he refused to show mercy to someone else when 48:57 the king came back and found out what happened, that brother 49:00 that South Asian was restricted because of that, he freely 49:04 chose not to fall in line with the same character. And here's 49:08 another thing too interesting. When you go to the revelation, 49:10 chapter 3 verse 5, it clearly communicate status. A person 49:14 can be lost if he or she chooses. And how do you say 49:16 that? Because GM in that verse, Jesus says he will not blot out 49:20 a person's name from the book of Life who overcomes wait a 49:23 second blot out and the most in their name was in there to 49:26 begin with. Why you can't blot something out that wasn't first 49:29 in their lives. When I have people come to me, a single one 49:32 saved always saved is, you know, that's really the gospel 49:34 and what you say you can and do that well, and then we have 49:37 free will. And yes, I can today be in God's will. And my name 49:41 can be written in the Lamb's book of Life. But I still have 49:44 the freedom of choice at any point in time to say, Lord. 49:47 >> I don't like your plan anymore and I don't really 49:50 receive your salvation. You might want to go out and do my 49:53 own thing. I want to live my own life and God allows us to 49:55 freely for the give us just a couple of examples. But the 49:58 concept of one saved always saved. And then the Gospel is 50:01 not a one-time thing. As we said, it is a daily 50:04 relationship with Christ and we must look to him. We must 50:08 constantly focused on the author and finisher of our 50:10 faith and remain rooted and grafted into the vine of Jesus 50:15 and remain abiding of him on a daily basis in order to have 50:18 salvation. So the idea of internal security, we have 50:23 security as long as we by the biting, you can have assurance. 50:27 Yes, but it's only within the protection of an abiding 50:30 relationship, right? Right. Absolutely. And I think 50:33 >> that doctrine gets rid of as I think you alluded to this 50:38 before it gets rid of the hole. The idea of sanctification miss 50:42 just justification. You're just you just get say, dude is, 50:46 you know, get forgive him. And then that's it. You know, 50:50 this is the bill site that Haitians working lifetime. 50:53 That's right. So you're you're getting 50:55 cleansed regularly as you abide in Christ. That's rookie with 51:01 it. We don't abide and he wants to increase. And a mistake 51:03 reacts to John 15. You know, we have too much going to get 3 51:06 variants across and through its, OK? 51:08 >> Thank you, my beautiful Eden. So this whole ideology is 51:12 in John talks about this. He says 51:14 nobody could s***** you out of my hand was saved and people 51:19 say, well, since nobody can s***** you out of my hand, 51:23 he didn't say you cannot walk out of my hand. Watch this. 51:29 It's right smack dab in the center of the book of John and 51:33 how Amazing it's John 6 0st 66 and talking about things 51:40 talking about the 70 disciples all around 70 of them. 51:46 From that time, many of his disciples went back 51:51 and walk with him. No more. They were his disciples. 51:55 They will not just follows in the crowd looking for a fun, 51:58 loaves and fishes. They were his disciples and they walked 52:01 with him no more what they do. They went back. What were they 52:04 his disciples? So you could be a disciple of Christ and choose 52:08 to go back and not walk with him any longer evidence. 52:11 Second, Timothy 4 verse 10. 52:13 Now the work of the New Testament Church is under way. 52:16 And the young man by the name of the team is saying I'm done 52:18 with this, Paul, you keep on. Keep going to keep on the Bible 52:22 says and second of the 4.10, for Demis has forsaken me 52:26 having loved this present world and has departed 4th festival 52:31 in ICA. He went back to the pleasure. Palaces not done with 52:34 this. You guys keep on preaching. Putting a tense up. 52:36 I have forsaken you having love this present world and one more 52:42 this powerful PETA talks about this because PETA, he's the 52:44 best one who knows how this happened because he denied, 52:47 as Lauren said on even know him. 52:49 Listen, PETA says second PETA to verse 20 to 22 52:53 40th after they have escaped the pollution of the world 52:58 through the knowledge of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. 53:02 But if they do, they escaped, 53:04 they are again entangled in them and overcome. 53:09 But but they didn't take the pollution of the world and the 53:12 overcome by it 53:13 the latter and is worse for them than the beginning. 53:16 And then he says in verse 21 of Second, Peter Chapter to her 53:19 for it would have been better for them not to have known the 53:22 way of righteousness than having known it. Here it is 53:25 again to turn away from the whole living, then what 53:30 happened? But it happened according to the true proverb, 53:34 a dog returns to his vomit and a pig having washed 53:39 to her wallowing in the mire. In all these instances, what 53:43 they do, they was saved. They escaped. They were 53:46 disciples and they walked away and they turned away. They walk 53:50 with him. No more. They departed because they love 53:52 something other than they love Jesus. Okay. Good just we this 53:57 was on the truth about south. Yes. 53:59 >> A lot of the scriptures and more are in this little book at 54:02 booklet. So you also can order it tonight. You've got a little 54:06 bit of time left. You can call in the number 618-627-4651. 54:11 Or you can text what to do to get ready to put it up on the 54:14 screen here. Texted for you. There you go to 2, 8, 3, 54:18 9, 7, 5, and then you can e-mail right to his name out 54:22 Lyman, 3 ABN Dot TV. I want to want what I want to do. Just in 54:27 summary, we didn't get the answer. You know everything. 54:29 We want an answer. But he's very important. We're going 54:32 back to the summary on that 2 minutes. I go to church on 54:35 Sunday. My committing cent. 54:37 That's not what we intended to say tonight is all right at all 54:41 that we live up to the light and how can we do this quickly? 54:43 Very clear. That's not what we said it all. 54:46 >> There are people that are going to say that went to 54:48 church on Tuesday. They had no idea. But here's the key to him 54:52 that no U.S. to do good and do it than not to him. It is Sen. 54:56 That's all you've known then. That's what you've done. 54:59 But once you come once you come to the knowledge of the truth 55:02 trying to do to saying this is the way walk you and and you 55:05 say no, I don't want that. That's when you last night 55:08 Sunday. Keep us in. Not condemned to h*** down and that 55:11 once you understand the truth and you turn away from that 55:13 because you have a way that you prefer over God's truth. 55:16 >> You cannot continue. I know many great Christians that I 55:18 respect tremendously. You don't keep the Sabbath. But again, 55:23 we we live up to the light that we have and there are people 55:26 who are accepting it. There are people that in truth. I mean, 55:30 there's so many Christians and we we have been saying and with 55:33 so many Christians away, we love. We say they love Jesus 55:36 with all the hard. So we're not condemning people again are 55:40 judging people. We're just telling you, this is what the 55:43 Bible says. And if you want to know the truth, we're trying to 55:46 get out. What we know is true. You have something to offer us. 55:49 We want to listen to. Hopefully you can send us. We can help 55:52 each other as Christians. One other person sent and then 55:56 and I don't know if there's an answer. I didn't know the 55:58 answer. Is there a first LGBTQ in the Bible? Was their first 56:02 instance where someone, you know, the Bible speaks at this 56:06 first person that the you know, became a 56:09 homosexual relationship. 56:11 >> Yeah. Talk about in Deuteronomy out. I quoted that 56:13 in Deuteronomy if a man lies with a man has with the woman, 56:16 it's an abomination. They want to know if there's a first one 56:19 who the first shot Denson scripture with Saddam and more 56:23 genetic to add to it. But the men that went after them. 56:27 And so just like that, the Bible and it's included in this 56:30 book that bring it out, OK, closing thought. 56:33 >> This has been really, really good is rich, because again, 56:37 we're looking at 56:39 how to app how to follow Jesus. Jesus is the way that's the 56:45 bottom line. 56:46 >> That's right about him that these doctors are important. 56:48 And that's why we feel like we've got to put him out there 56:51 and you can call any time in 3 a B. And if you'd like to get 56:54 those books, remember their free? All you have to do is pay 56:57 for the shipping. Our time is all gone for the night until we 57:00 say next time.
