We have a couple ladies times. 14:38.000 --> 14:43.000 My wife helps lead one on Tuesday and then Miss Lucy helps lead one on Thursday. 14:43.000 --> 14:49.000 If you would like to go on those, you can chat with them or there's a ladies group chat about the Soul Winning events. 14:49.000 --> 14:54.000 Down below is our church stats and then on the right is a list of expecting ladies. 14:54.000 --> 14:57.000 Please be in prayer for those who are expecting upcoming events. 14:57.000 --> 15:04.000 Our Child's Choir practices has begun and they're just after the evening services. 15:04.000 --> 15:12.000 And so if you are wanting them to participate for I think ages 4 through 17, we have two different choirs. 15:12.000 --> 15:16.000 They're going to be performing on Easter and they've already done this a few times and it's been really great. 15:16.000 --> 15:21.000 So I really appreciate those who participate. I'm looking forward to hearing that on Easter. 15:21.000 --> 15:25.000 Aisle Soul Winning Marathon, March 21st. 15:25.000 --> 15:32.000 Also, Brother Ebanek is leading this. He's organizing this. He put something in our group chat about it. 15:32.000 --> 15:35.000 We're also having a Soul Winning Mega Marathon, April 4th. We're going to meet here at the church. 15:35.000 --> 15:40.000 So Easter Sunday is April 5th. That's when those kids are going to be performing. 15:40.000 --> 15:43.000 On the back is a prayer list. 15:43.000 --> 15:52.000 There is a new thing on our bulletin. So instead of having a sign up sheet, like a physical sign up sheet for some of our events, 15:52.000 --> 15:55.000 we're going to try and transition and change that a little bit. 15:55.000 --> 16:00.000 I built an event registration system that's on GodResource.com. 16:00.000 --> 16:03.000 And all you have to do is you can just scan the code. 16:03.000 --> 16:08.000 Now you do have to create an account for the first time. But if you have an account, you just log in. 16:08.000 --> 16:10.000 But once you have an account, you can just register for these events. 16:10.000 --> 16:14.000 Just tell us how many people are coming. And it's really, really easy. 16:14.000 --> 16:18.000 So if you want, you can just scan those codes for whatever events you're planning on attending. 16:18.000 --> 16:22.000 Sign up and just let us know that you're on your way. 16:22.000 --> 16:26.000 If there is ever some kind of an issue or you have a problem, please let us know so that way we can get it corrected. 16:26.000 --> 16:30.000 But I think it should be working. And so excited about that. 16:30.000 --> 16:38.000 With the Mega Marathon, we're trying to just push this to all of our friends and just anybody out there that wants to host events throughout the world 16:38.000 --> 16:43.000 and participate and have a big push for that particular day. 16:43.000 --> 16:52.000 I'll be doing a Baptist bias show that evening just to kind of calculate the results from our combined efforts. 16:52.000 --> 16:59.000 Because I know a lot of our friends, pastor friends and different people over the world are wanting to participate and just kind of collaborate. 16:59.000 --> 17:05.000 We've done something like this in the past. Some years it's been a big thing. Some years it's been smaller. 17:05.000 --> 17:11.000 But we're hoping this year we can make a big deal about it again and get a lot of people participating and a lot of people involved. 17:11.000 --> 17:16.000 And really just push to get a lot of people saved leading up to Easter. 17:16.000 --> 17:20.000 Obviously it's nice to see people in church on Easter, but it's better to get people saved. 17:20.000 --> 17:25.000 So of course we're going to make some special Easter invites to hand out as well. 17:25.000 --> 17:28.000 But again, the most important thing is that we get people saved. 17:28.000 --> 17:32.000 I know some people, the big number for them is the church attendance on Easter. 17:32.000 --> 17:36.000 To me it's about how many people will get saved. So that's what we're going to be pushing. 17:36.000 --> 17:39.000 That's pretty much all I have as far as announcements this morning. 17:39.000 --> 17:44.000 We're going to go ahead and sing our Psalm of the week. It's Psalm 139. 17:44.000 --> 17:47.000 You can use your King James Bible. It's only a section. 17:47.000 --> 17:51.000 But we have in our special Psalm binders a section poured out here. 17:51.000 --> 17:54.000 Psalm 139. 18:02.000 --> 18:09.000 All right, that was Psalm 139. 18:09.000 --> 18:14.000 Psalm 139. Let's all sing that out together. 19:32.000 --> 19:37.000 Tonight I hate them, O Lord, that is me. 19:37.000 --> 19:43.000 And them not I greet, With those that rise up against thee. 19:43.000 --> 19:49.000 Tonight I hate them, O Lord, that is me. 19:49.000 --> 19:54.000 I hate them with perfect hatred. 19:54.000 --> 20:01.000 I hate them with perfect hatred. 20:01.000 --> 20:06.000 I count them, my enemies. 20:06.000 --> 20:12.000 I count them, my enemies. 20:12.000 --> 20:17.000 Tonight I hate them, O Lord, that is me. 20:17.000 --> 20:23.000 Tonight I hate them, O Lord, that is me. 20:23.000 --> 20:29.000 And them not I greet, With those that rise up against thee. 20:29.000 --> 20:35.000 Tonight I hate them, O Lord, that is me. 20:35.000 --> 20:38.000 Great singing, everybody. Now as the offering plates are being passed around, 20:38.000 --> 20:43.000 go ahead and open your Bibles to the book of Genesis, chapter 12. 20:43.000 --> 20:46.000 That's the book of Genesis, chapter number 12. 21:29.000 --> 21:53.000 Genesis 12, the Bible reads, Now the Lord had said unto Abram, 21:53.000 --> 21:57.000 Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father's house, 21:57.000 --> 22:02.000 unto a land that I will show thee, and I will make of thee a great nation, 22:02.000 --> 22:06.000 and I will bless thee, and make thy name great, and thou shalt be a blessing. 22:06.000 --> 22:11.000 And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee, 22:11.000 --> 22:14.000 and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed. 22:14.000 --> 22:19.000 So Abram departed as the Lord had spoken unto him, and Lot went with him, 22:19.000 --> 22:23.000 and Abram was seventy and five years old when he departed out of Haran. 22:23.000 --> 22:27.000 And Abram took Sarai his wife, and Lot his brother's son, 22:27.000 --> 22:31.000 and all their substance that they had gathered, and the souls that they had gotten in Haran. 22:31.000 --> 22:35.000 And they went forth to go into the land of Canaan, and into the land of Canaan they came. 22:35.000 --> 22:41.000 And Abram passed through the land unto the place of Sycam, unto the place of Mori, 22:41.000 --> 22:43.000 and the Canaanite was then in the land. 22:43.000 --> 22:46.000 And the Lord appeared unto Abram, and said, 22:47.000 --> 22:51.000 Under thy seed will I give this land, and there buildeth he an altar unto the Lord, 22:51.000 --> 22:53.000 who appeared unto him. 22:53.000 --> 22:57.000 And he removed from thence unto a mountain on the east of Bethel, 22:57.000 --> 23:01.000 and pitched his tent, having Bethel on the west, and Haia on the east. 23:01.000 --> 23:05.000 And there he builded an altar unto the Lord, and called upon the name of the Lord. 23:05.000 --> 23:09.000 And Abram journeyed, going on still toward the south. 23:09.000 --> 23:14.000 And there was a famine in the land, and Abram went down into Egypt to sojourn there, 23:14.000 --> 23:16.000 for the famine was grievous in the land. 23:16.000 --> 23:20.000 And it came to pass, when he was come near to enter into Egypt, 23:20.000 --> 23:26.000 that he sent unto Sarai his wife, Behold now, I know that thou art a fair woman to look upon. 23:26.000 --> 23:30.000 Therefore it shall come to pass, when the Egyptians shall see thee, 23:30.000 --> 23:35.000 that they shall say, This is his wife, and they will kill me, but they will save thee alive. 23:35.000 --> 23:40.000 Say, I pray thee, thou art my sister, that it may be well with me for thy sake, 23:40.000 --> 23:42.000 and my soul shall live because of thee. 23:42.000 --> 23:45.000 And it came to pass, that when Abram was come into Egypt, 23:45.000 --> 23:48.000 the Egyptians beheld the woman, that she was very fair. 23:48.000 --> 23:53.000 The princes also of Pharaoh saw her, and commended her before Pharaoh. 23:53.000 --> 23:55.000 And the woman was taken into Pharaoh's house. 23:55.000 --> 23:58.000 And he entreated Abram well for her sake. 23:58.000 --> 24:04.000 And he had sheep, and oxen, and heasses, and menservants, and maidservants, and sheasses, and camels. 24:04.000 --> 24:10.000 And the Lord plagued Pharaoh in his house, with great plagues because of Sarai Abram's wife. 24:10.000 --> 24:15.000 And Pharaoh called Abram and said, What is this that thou hast done unto me? 24:15.000 --> 24:18.000 Why didst thou not tell me that she was thy wife? 24:18.000 --> 24:21.000 Why saidest thou, She is my sister? 24:21.000 --> 24:23.000 So I might have taken her to me to wife. 24:23.000 --> 24:27.000 Now therefore, behold thy wife, take her, and go thy way. 24:27.000 --> 24:33.000 And Pharaoh commanded his men concerning him, and they sent him away, and his wife, and all that he had. 24:33.000 --> 24:35.000 Let's bow our heads forward a prayer. 24:35.000 --> 24:38.000 Father in heaven, I pray, Lord God, that you give Pastor Shelley 24:38.000 --> 24:40.000 the fullness and power of the Holy Spirit. 24:40.000 --> 24:44.000 Help him to preach the sermon you've laid on his heart with boldness, with clarity of mind. 24:44.000 --> 24:49.000 And help us to pay very close attention to the message this morning. 24:49.000 --> 24:52.000 And derive lessons from it to be better Christians moving forward. 24:52.000 --> 24:54.000 We love you, and in Jesus' name I pray. Amen. 24:54.000 --> 24:59.000 Amen. My sermon title this morning is God's Promise to Abraham. 24:59.000 --> 25:01.000 God's Promise to Abraham. 25:01.000 --> 25:06.000 This is a big talking point in our world today. 25:06.000 --> 25:10.000 We've seen America bomb Iran recently. 25:10.000 --> 25:18.000 The leader of Israel, Bibi Netanyahu, recently had a press conference where he was talking with Donald Trump. 25:18.000 --> 25:24.000 And he was loosely quoting Genesis chapter number 12 here. 25:24.000 --> 25:28.000 In fact, this is what Bibi Netanyahu said. 25:28.000 --> 25:31.000 President Trump just said it. 25:31.000 --> 25:33.000 It's also in the Bible. 25:33.000 --> 25:38.000 In the Bible, it says those who will bless you will be blessed. 25:38.000 --> 25:42.000 And those who will curse you will be cursed. 25:42.000 --> 25:45.000 And that's actually what is happening. 25:45.000 --> 25:47.000 We want the blessings. 25:47.000 --> 25:52.000 I think we've done a lot in the past two years to end the curse. 25:52.000 --> 25:58.000 Now, I don't know what curse was ended two years ago. 25:58.000 --> 26:01.000 Or what changed two years ago. 26:01.000 --> 26:03.000 I mean, inflation is still pretty high. 26:03.000 --> 26:07.000 The curse of usury still seems to be on our land. 26:07.000 --> 26:12.000 The curses that are coming with this nation state of Israel. 26:12.000 --> 26:14.000 I mean, what did we even end? 26:14.000 --> 26:22.000 Who could even point back to anything from, quote, two years ago that was a significant change for America or positive change for America? 26:22.000 --> 26:25.000 Just that Trump was elected president or something? 26:25.000 --> 26:27.000 I mean, what is he even talking about? 26:27.000 --> 26:31.000 But he's pointing to Genesis chapter number 12 here. 26:31.000 --> 26:43.000 And most Zionists and dispensationalists and different groups will point to Genesis chapter 12 and just say, we need to just love Jews because Genesis 12. 26:43.000 --> 26:47.000 We need to just bless Jews because Genesis 12. 26:47.000 --> 26:55.000 Genesis 12 just proves beyond a shadow of a doubt that we just bless Jews, bless Israel, bless them. 26:55.000 --> 27:04.000 I don't know if you read Genesis 12 with me this morning or not, but did you notice it didn't say Jews anywhere? 27:04.000 --> 27:09.000 Did you notice that it didn't say Bibi Netanyahu at any point in the chapter? 27:09.000 --> 27:11.000 And it also doesn't say Israel. 27:11.000 --> 27:15.000 None of those words were ever brought up in this passage. 27:15.000 --> 27:17.000 So what is God's promise to Abraham then? 27:17.000 --> 27:20.000 Well, let's just read this verse two verses again and let's talk about it. 27:20.000 --> 27:29.000 Says in verse one, now the Lord had said unto Abram, get thee out of thy country and from thy kindred and from thy father's house unto a land that I will show thee. 27:29.000 --> 27:38.000 And I will make of thee a great nation and I will bless thee and make thy name great and thou shalt be a blessing. 27:38.000 --> 27:41.000 So number one, who's blessed? 27:41.000 --> 27:42.000 Abram. 27:42.000 --> 27:46.000 Abram is specifically going to have his name being great. 27:46.000 --> 27:52.000 His name, of course, gets adapted or evolves a little bit where we know him as Abraham. 27:52.000 --> 28:01.000 But God has made him the father of many nations, not one nation, the father of many nations. 28:01.000 --> 28:04.000 And so Abraham is greatly blessed. 28:04.000 --> 28:11.000 Of course, there is a specific nation, a nation that was a great nation that came out of his lineage, which would be the nation of Israel. 28:11.000 --> 28:13.000 That did happen. 28:13.000 --> 28:21.000 But it also is to make Abraham blessed for him to be great and that he specifically is a blessing. 28:21.000 --> 28:30.000 It says in verse three, and I will bless them that bless thee and curse them that curseth thee and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed. 28:30.000 --> 28:41.000 So notice again what Bibi Netanyahu said is those who bless you will be blessed and those who will curse you will be blessed. 28:41.000 --> 28:49.000 The problem with you in our modern vernacular is that you doesn't indicate if it's talking to one person or multiple people. 28:49.000 --> 28:50.000 You don't know. 28:50.000 --> 28:53.000 You could be talking to one person, but you don't know. 28:53.000 --> 28:57.000 In the King James Bible, it uses the word thee. 28:57.000 --> 29:01.000 Thee is a singular only usage. 29:01.000 --> 29:10.000 And so when he says that he's going to bless him that blessed thee, saying anybody that blesses Abraham is going to be blessed. 29:10.000 --> 29:14.000 Anybody that curses Abraham is going to be cursed. 29:14.000 --> 29:19.000 And then it says in Abraham shall all families of the earth be blessed. 29:19.000 --> 29:31.000 How could I then read this verse and then say this means we should only worship one nation, one group of people, one specific lineage or descendancy of Abraham? 29:31.000 --> 29:36.000 I mean, Abraham did technically have more than one son, Ishmael. 29:36.000 --> 29:42.000 I mean, are we going to say that everybody that's a descendant of Ishmael is also under the Abrahamic blessing here? 29:42.000 --> 29:43.000 No. 29:43.000 --> 29:46.000 So we have to understand what is God's promise to Abraham? 29:46.000 --> 29:49.000 Well, there's a lot that I could say. 29:49.000 --> 29:52.000 I want to go to Galatians 3 now and kind of interpret this. 29:52.000 --> 29:58.000 But if we think about this passage in its timeline, this happened. 29:58.000 --> 30:02.000 Those who were kind to Abraham were blessed. 30:02.000 --> 30:06.000 Those who did try to harm Abraham were cursed. 30:06.000 --> 30:08.000 This also extended to his children, right? 30:08.000 --> 30:10.000 It extends to Isaac. 30:10.000 --> 30:12.000 It extends to Jacob. 30:12.000 --> 30:18.000 Those who try to curse or harm Jacob, they get, you know, basically God's wrath. 30:18.000 --> 30:20.000 God takes care of them. 30:20.000 --> 30:29.000 We see the famous story about Balaam trying to curse, especially Jacob, which is just a euphemism for the nation of Israel. 30:29.000 --> 30:30.000 And he fails. 30:30.000 --> 30:39.000 So, yeah, obviously God is being favorable towards Abraham and Isaac and Jacob and these descendants. 30:39.000 --> 30:45.000 God is, of course, blessing those that bless them and cursing those that are cursing them. 30:45.000 --> 30:50.000 And this is just a constant thing that is happening in that particular timeline. 30:50.000 --> 30:59.000 But when we talk about this promise to Abraham specifically of blessing Abraham and cursing Abraham, OK, 30:59.000 --> 31:08.000 do we see this as just a carte blanche for every single one of his descendants for all time? 31:08.000 --> 31:15.000 Is it true that every single descendant of the children of Israel has always been blessed 31:15.000 --> 31:19.000 and that anybody who ever cursed them was actually cursed? 31:19.000 --> 31:22.000 I mean, what about Judas Iscariot? 31:22.000 --> 31:25.000 I mean, isn't Judas Iscariot of the children of Israel? 31:25.000 --> 31:28.000 So we need to bless Judas Iscariot? 31:28.000 --> 31:32.000 Is anybody that cursed Judas Iscariot going to be cursed? 31:32.000 --> 31:34.000 Because you know who cursed Judas Iscariot? 31:34.000 --> 31:36.000 David in the Book of Psalms. 31:36.000 --> 31:42.000 David curses Judas repeatedly in the Book of Psalms and talks about him being cursed. 31:42.000 --> 31:48.000 It's even brought up again in Acts, chapter number one, what David has said and what David had done. 31:48.000 --> 31:53.000 Look, it's insane to think that every single children of Israel were always blessed 31:53.000 --> 31:57.000 and never cursed throughout their entire period of time. 31:57.000 --> 32:03.000 I mean, Deuteronomy 28 is God saying, hey, if you follow me, I'm going to bless you. 32:03.000 --> 32:05.000 And if you don't follow my commandments, I'm going to curse you. 32:05.000 --> 32:10.000 So is God cursing himself by cursing the children of Israel? 32:10.000 --> 32:15.000 I mean, you have these two mountains, you know, Ebal and Gerizim where they're standing on. 32:15.000 --> 32:17.000 One's like the mountain of blessing. 32:17.000 --> 32:19.000 The other one's the mountain of cursing. 32:19.000 --> 32:25.000 And it's like, you know, yes, by entering into the law, you're entering into blessing and cursing. 32:26.000 --> 32:29.000 What what was the special protection of Abraham? 32:29.000 --> 32:31.000 Abraham was already saved. 32:31.000 --> 32:35.000 Abraham's already God's chosen people in a different sense than just physically. 32:35.000 --> 32:37.000 He's a spiritual chosen. 32:37.000 --> 32:42.000 He is elect of God because of his faith in God and his faith in Jesus Christ. 32:42.000 --> 32:46.000 And so as God's people spiritually, this is always true. 32:46.000 --> 32:51.000 And of course, that's what the promise was really pointing to was the spiritual aspect here 32:51.000 --> 32:56.000 and that Abraham as being saved, if you bless him, you're going to be blessed. 32:56.000 --> 32:58.000 And if you curse him, you're going to be cursed. 32:58.000 --> 33:02.000 But it is not about just being a physical descendant of Abraham. 33:02.000 --> 33:07.000 Now, in Galatians, chapter three, the Bible makes it clear and we're going to read a lot of this. 33:07.000 --> 33:11.000 So, you know, buckle down on Galatians three for a moment here. 33:11.000 --> 33:18.000 But Galatians three is really contrasting and the idea of salvation by faith as opposed to works. 33:18.000 --> 33:24.000 It's contrasting just the faith versus works argument, the spiritual versus the carnal. 33:24.000 --> 33:26.000 That's the whole context of Galatians, chapter three. 33:26.000 --> 33:30.000 And these Galatians have been mixed up in work salvation. 33:30.000 --> 33:34.000 He says in verse three, Are you so foolish having begun in the spirit? 33:34.000 --> 33:37.000 Are you now made perfect by the flesh? 33:37.000 --> 33:39.000 Have you suffered so many things in vain? 33:39.000 --> 33:44.000 If it be yet in vain, he therefore that minister to the spirit and work of miracles among you, 33:44.000 --> 33:48.000 Doeth he it by the works of the law or by the hearing of faith, 33:48.000 --> 33:54.000 even as Abraham believed God and it was accounted to him for righteousness? 33:54.000 --> 33:58.000 So he's saying the reason why you're saved, the reason why you're God's people, 33:58.000 --> 34:05.000 the reason why you're someone special is because you put faith in Jesus Christ and you began in the spirit. 34:05.000 --> 34:08.000 You didn't begin by the works of the law. 34:08.000 --> 34:11.000 You begin by the spirit. 34:11.000 --> 34:17.000 And he's saying even as Abraham himself, Abraham did not begin with the law. 34:17.000 --> 34:19.000 He began with faith. 34:19.000 --> 34:24.000 That's why he was before the law is because he's a picture about you get saved first. 34:24.000 --> 34:27.000 Then you start trying to follow God's commandments. 34:27.000 --> 34:30.000 You don't try to start following God's commandments and then get saved. 34:30.000 --> 34:32.000 No, no, no. You get saved. 34:32.000 --> 34:36.000 And then you start following God's commandments before you get saved. 34:36.000 --> 34:39.000 You broke God's commandments. 34:39.000 --> 34:42.000 You didn't keep God's commandments. You broke God's commandments. 34:42.000 --> 34:45.000 Then you realized I need to get saved. 34:45.000 --> 34:48.000 And you began by getting saved through faith. 34:48.000 --> 34:53.000 Then once getting saved, now you're going to try and keep God's commandments. 34:53.000 --> 34:58.000 Now you're going to try and do the works before you weren't even capable of doing the works anyways, 34:58.000 --> 35:02.000 because we have to walk in the spirit to not fulfill the lust of the flesh. 35:02.000 --> 35:06.000 And he's trying to make it clear to the Galatians like, oh, you foolish Galatians. 35:06.000 --> 35:09.000 You think that by keeping the law, that's how you get saved. 35:09.000 --> 35:12.000 You think by keeping the law, that's how you're right with God. 35:12.000 --> 35:14.000 No, you began in the spirit. 35:14.000 --> 35:19.000 Why are you trying to get circumcised and become something that you're not? 35:19.000 --> 35:23.000 That's not the entrance into the kingdom of God. 35:23.000 --> 35:26.000 What was Abraham righteous for? For his faith in God. 35:26.000 --> 35:31.000 Verse 7, know you therefore that they which are of faith, the same are the children of Abraham. 35:31.000 --> 35:34.000 So who's the children of Abraham according to the New Testament? 35:34.000 --> 35:39.000 Is it physical descendants or is it those who have believed in Jesus Christ? 35:39.000 --> 35:41.000 It's those who believe in Jesus Christ. 35:41.000 --> 35:43.000 Those are the children of Abraham. 35:43.000 --> 35:48.000 Verse 8, in the scripture foreseeing that God would justify the heathen through faith, 35:48.000 --> 35:54.000 preached before the gospel unto Abraham saying, and thee shall all nations be blessed. 35:54.000 --> 35:58.000 So, you know, if you want to understand Genesis chapter number 12, you know what you should do? 35:58.000 --> 36:03.000 You should go to the New Testament where it quotes Genesis chapter number 12 and let it tell us what it means. 36:03.000 --> 36:08.000 Not Bibi Netanyahu who doesn't even believe in the New Testament, who doesn't believe in Galatians, 36:08.000 --> 36:10.000 who doesn't believe in Jesus Christ. 36:10.000 --> 36:14.000 You should let Galatians tell you, you should let the Apostle Paul, you should let the Holy Spirit tell you. 36:14.000 --> 36:19.000 And notice, did it say Israel in verse number 8? 36:19.000 --> 36:22.000 Did it say Jews in verse number 8? 36:22.000 --> 36:24.000 Did it say Bibi? 36:24.000 --> 36:27.000 You know what it actually said? The heathen, didn't it? 36:27.000 --> 36:29.000 Didn't it bring up the heathen in verse number 8? 36:29.000 --> 36:32.000 It's saying, what is Genesis 12 about? 36:32.000 --> 36:34.000 It's about the heathen. 36:34.000 --> 36:36.000 It's not about Israel. 36:36.000 --> 36:44.000 Why? Because all families of the earth, all nations, it uses these two words as basically the same understanding. 36:44.000 --> 36:47.000 When it says nations, it's saying families. 36:47.000 --> 36:49.000 And of course, this is why it's used interchangeably. 36:49.000 --> 36:53.000 It says, and thee shall all nations be blessed. 36:53.000 --> 36:58.000 In my Bible, it literally even says just Genesis 12, 3 right here as just a footnote. 36:58.000 --> 37:02.000 It's like I guess the dispensationalist didn't get to this printing or whatever. 37:02.000 --> 37:06.000 It's like, hey, this is what we're talking about here, because obviously being quoted. 37:06.000 --> 37:10.000 So then they which be of faith are blessed with faithful Abraham. 37:10.000 --> 37:12.000 So who is blessed with Abraham? 37:12.000 --> 37:15.000 When we say, hey, if you bless Abraham, you're going to be blessed. 37:15.000 --> 37:18.000 Who are the people that are blessed with Abraham? 37:18.000 --> 37:23.000 It's the heathen that believe in Jesus, not Israel. 37:23.000 --> 37:28.000 That's what Romans, I'm sorry, that's what Galatians 3 verse 8 just said, 37:28.000 --> 37:36.000 that God would justify the heathen through faith and we are blessed with Abraham because we believe. 37:36.000 --> 37:39.000 Verse 10, for as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse. 37:39.000 --> 37:43.000 Uh oh, somebody's cursed. 37:43.000 --> 37:45.000 You know who's cursed? Those who are under the works of the law. 37:45.000 --> 37:49.000 You know who's under the works of the law? The Jews. 37:49.000 --> 37:54.000 So if we actually just let Galatians 3 fall open, we start realizing pretty quickly 37:54.000 --> 37:58.000 those who believe, heathen that believe, blessed. 37:58.000 --> 38:01.000 The Jews that don't believe, cursed. 38:01.000 --> 38:05.000 No, no, no, they're Jews. Wait, wait, wait a minute. Let's read this again. 38:05.000 --> 38:08.000 For as many as are under the works of the law are under the curse, for it is written, 38:08.000 --> 38:16.000 cursed it is everyone that continueth not in all things which are written in the book of the law to do them. 38:16.000 --> 38:19.000 Well, I don't know if that's the Jews. It's everyone. 38:19.000 --> 38:26.000 Every single person that is alive has sinned and they are under the curse of the law. 38:26.000 --> 38:28.000 What is the curse of the law? To die and go to hell. 38:28.000 --> 38:31.000 That's the curse of the law. They're cursed. 38:31.000 --> 38:34.000 Because the Bible says if you believe on him, you have everlasting life. 38:34.000 --> 38:40.000 And if you do not believe, the wrath of God abides on you according to John 3, 36, or 3, 36. 38:40.000 --> 38:46.000 According to John 3, 36, he who does not believe has the wrath of God abiding on him, 38:46.000 --> 38:50.000 has the curse of God abiding on him, and is cursed. 38:50.000 --> 38:55.000 And unless you believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, you will stay cursed. 38:55.000 --> 38:57.000 How do you get rid of that curse? 38:57.000 --> 39:01.000 You have to give that curse to Jesus by putting your faith in Jesus Christ. 39:01.000 --> 39:04.000 And of course, that's what the Bible tells us. 39:04.000 --> 39:05.000 It says in verse 13, 39:05.000 --> 39:09.000 Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us. 39:09.000 --> 39:13.000 For it is written, cursed is everyone that hangeth on those three. 39:13.000 --> 39:15.000 Of course, backing up, verse 11 says, 39:15.000 --> 39:17.000 but that no man is justified by the law and the sight of God. 39:17.000 --> 39:23.000 It is evident, for the just shall live by faith, and the law is not of faith, 39:23.000 --> 39:25.000 but the man that doeth them shall live in them. 39:25.000 --> 39:31.000 What is the Bible saying? No one has ever been saved by works and never will ever be saved by works. 39:32.000 --> 39:35.000 It is evident, it's obvious. Why? 39:35.000 --> 39:42.000 Because before the law even came, salvation was clearly preached by faith through Abraham. 39:42.000 --> 39:46.000 Before the law, we have the gospel being preached unto Abraham. 39:46.000 --> 39:50.000 Why? To point to the fact that it's not about the law that gets you saved, 39:50.000 --> 39:55.000 it's about salvation through faith in Jesus Christ and what he's done for us. 39:55.000 --> 39:58.000 Christ was that curse for us. 39:58.000 --> 40:02.000 And why did Jesus Christ become a curse, verse 14, 40:02.000 --> 40:07.000 that the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles? 40:07.000 --> 40:11.000 Did you notice? I mean, it doesn't even bring up Israel at all. 40:11.000 --> 40:14.000 It's almost like that passage isn't about Israel. 40:14.000 --> 40:18.000 Well, how's that possible? I mean, Bibi said that it was. 40:18.000 --> 40:19.000 Trump says that it is. 40:19.000 --> 40:21.000 Zionists says it's about Israel. 40:21.000 --> 40:24.000 Okay, well, they're just making stuff up. 40:24.000 --> 40:27.000 I mean, Galatians, if we just let the Bible fall open, 40:27.000 --> 40:30.000 it tells us it's about the heathen. It tells us about all families. 40:30.000 --> 40:32.000 It's about all nations. 40:32.000 --> 40:36.000 Here specifically, it's being delineated as the Gentiles, 40:36.000 --> 40:41.000 that the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through just blessing Bibi Netanyahu. 40:43.000 --> 40:45.000 Sorry, that was the satanic version. 40:46.000 --> 40:51.000 No, no, no. How do I get that blessing of Genesis, chapter number 12, verse 3? 40:52.000 --> 40:59.000 That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ. 40:59.000 --> 41:01.000 Okay, so here's point number one. 41:01.000 --> 41:06.000 God's promised Abraham the promise is about Jesus. 41:06.000 --> 41:10.000 The promise is about Jesus. 41:10.000 --> 41:12.000 That is what the promise is about. 41:12.000 --> 41:18.000 I get the blessing through Jesus that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith. 41:18.000 --> 41:23.000 Brethren, I speak after the manner of men, though it be but a man's covenant. 41:23.000 --> 41:27.000 Yet, if it be confirmed, no man disannuleth or addeth thereto. 41:27.000 --> 41:31.000 Now to Abraham and his seed where the promise is made, 41:31.000 --> 41:37.000 he saith not, and to seeds as of many, but as of one, and to thy seed, which is Christ. 41:37.000 --> 41:40.000 This is just the smoking gun. 41:40.000 --> 41:45.000 This is just the death nail to any kind of Zionist belief. 41:45.000 --> 41:49.000 There is no promise made carte blanche to the physical nation of Israel. 41:49.000 --> 41:55.000 The promise was made to Abraham and his seed, and the Bible tells us explicitly it was not many. 41:55.000 --> 41:57.000 It's not Bibi. 41:57.000 --> 42:00.000 It's not Harvey Weinstein. 42:00.000 --> 42:02.000 It's not Epstein. 42:02.000 --> 42:03.000 It's not all the Steins. 42:03.000 --> 42:05.000 It's Jesus. 42:05.000 --> 42:07.000 It's Jesus Christ. 42:07.000 --> 42:09.000 It's not Adam Sandler. 42:11.000 --> 42:13.000 It's not Jerry Seinfeld. 42:13.000 --> 42:20.000 It's not some guy named Green or Greenback or Green Money or Moneyback 42:20.000 --> 42:24.000 or whatever you want to dream of, Silverstein or Goldstein. 42:24.000 --> 42:29.000 It's interesting how their names always have something to do with money. 42:29.000 --> 42:31.000 Yet, what is the promise? 42:31.000 --> 42:33.000 The promise is about Jesus. 42:33.000 --> 42:35.000 It's always been about Jesus, always will be about Jesus. 42:35.000 --> 42:40.000 So those who bless Jesus are blessed. 42:40.000 --> 42:43.000 Those who curse Jesus are cursed. 42:43.000 --> 42:45.000 It's that simple. 42:45.000 --> 42:50.000 The promise from God to Abraham is about Jesus. 42:50.000 --> 42:55.000 Now, again, when he's saying in verse number 15, he's talking about a covenant, 42:55.000 --> 43:00.000 he is talking about inheriting the promised land as well. 43:00.000 --> 43:05.000 And he's going to explain this in verse 17, and this I say that the covenant that was 43:05.000 --> 43:10.000 confirmed before of God in Christ, the law, which was 430 years after, 43:10.000 --> 43:15.000 cannot disannul that it should make the promise of none effect. 43:15.000 --> 43:18.000 Now, again, some of this language is a little dense, but keep your finger. 43:18.000 --> 43:20.000 Let's go to another place. 43:20.000 --> 43:22.000 Let's go to Genesis chapter 46 for a moment. 43:22.000 --> 43:23.000 Genesis chapter 46. 43:23.000 --> 43:25.000 What is he saying? 43:25.000 --> 43:31.000 He's saying that inheriting the promised land was given to Abraham by 43:31.000 --> 43:36.000 promise, meaning that Abraham did not receive it. 43:36.000 --> 43:41.000 He was promised it, and he was promised it through Jesus Christ because the 43:41.000 --> 43:44.000 promise is about Jesus. 43:44.000 --> 43:49.000 And he's saying the law that came after this promise did not change anything 43:49.000 --> 43:51.000 about that promise. 43:51.000 --> 43:54.000 And this is what you'll hear from every Zionist and everybody out there. 43:54.000 --> 43:56.000 This is what they'll say. 43:56.000 --> 43:58.000 God doesn't change his promise. 43:58.000 --> 44:00.000 God doesn't break his covenant. 44:00.000 --> 44:02.000 God doesn't go back. 44:02.000 --> 44:05.000 God's gifts and callings are without repentance. 44:05.000 --> 44:07.000 God isn't done with Israel. 44:07.000 --> 44:09.000 Just all these different slogans. 44:09.000 --> 44:11.000 But here's the thing. 44:11.000 --> 44:13.000 Yeah. 44:13.000 --> 44:14.000 Yes. 44:14.000 --> 44:15.000 True. 44:15.000 --> 44:16.000 Yeah. 44:16.000 --> 44:19.000 The law didn't change God's covenant. 44:19.000 --> 44:25.000 And it said it was even confirmed to the covenant that God was going to make the 44:25.000 --> 44:26.000 covenant. 44:26.000 --> 44:28.000 It was even confirmed to them. 44:28.000 --> 44:33.000 And he doesn't explicitly say this, but I'm telling you it was confirmed to 44:33.000 --> 44:39.000 Jacob in Genesis chapter number 46, in verse number 2, and then after 430 years 44:39.000 --> 44:45.000 when they left and got the law at Mount Sinai, that did not change the promise 44:45.000 --> 44:50.000 given to Abraham, confirmed to Jacob before they entered into Egypt. 44:50.000 --> 44:53.000 Now, think about what we're talking about. 44:53.000 --> 44:57.000 We're talking about living in the promised land. 44:57.000 --> 45:01.000 Jacob was living in the promised land. 45:01.000 --> 45:07.000 And then God's saying, go to Egypt because you're still going to inherit this land. 45:07.000 --> 45:09.000 That kind of makes sense with the timeline, right? 45:09.000 --> 45:12.000 Wouldn't you think like, man, I thought you were going to give me this land. 45:12.000 --> 45:14.000 Now you're telling me to leave. 45:14.000 --> 45:15.000 No, no, no. 45:15.000 --> 45:16.000 I'm confirming it's okay. 45:16.000 --> 45:18.000 Go down into Egypt. 45:18.000 --> 45:21.000 You're going to go there for 430 years, but you're going to come back. 45:21.000 --> 45:24.000 That's the whole point of what we're talking about. 45:24.000 --> 45:28.000 But the fact that you're going to inherit it still had nothing to do with the law. 45:28.000 --> 45:31.000 It had everything to do with the promise given to Abraham. 45:31.000 --> 45:32.000 Okay? 45:32.000 --> 45:36.000 Now, I'm just showing you this point, Genesis chapter 46. 45:36.000 --> 45:39.000 Look at verse number 2. 45:39.000 --> 45:43.000 And this is after Joseph and his brethren go through their whole charade of 45:43.000 --> 45:45.000 figuring out who each other are. 45:45.000 --> 45:48.000 Verse 2 says, And God spake into Israel in visions of the night and said, 45:48.000 --> 45:51.000 And he said, I am God, the God of thy father. 45:51.000 --> 45:55.000 Fear not to go down into Egypt, for I will there make of thee a great nation, 45:55.000 --> 46:00.000 and I will go down with thee into Egypt, and I will also surely bring thee up 46:00.000 --> 46:01.000 again. 46:01.000 --> 46:04.000 And Joseph shall put his hand upon thine eyes. 46:04.000 --> 46:08.000 So God is saying, look, this promise that I said about making all a great 46:08.000 --> 46:12.000 nation and having you all be in the promised land, all that's still going to 46:12.000 --> 46:13.000 happen. 46:13.000 --> 46:14.000 And he's confirming it. 46:14.000 --> 46:17.000 Then fast forward 430 years, they do become a great nation. 46:17.000 --> 46:20.000 They multiply exceedingly and become a great host. 46:20.000 --> 46:23.000 And no, it wasn't just their random servants. 46:23.000 --> 46:26.000 They actually physically multiply. 46:26.000 --> 46:29.000 And no, it wasn't 215 years. 46:29.000 --> 46:32.000 It was really 430 years, like the Bible explicitly states. 46:32.000 --> 46:33.000 Okay? 46:33.000 --> 46:37.000 When you start just getting rid of just clear statements, you're going to see 46:37.000 --> 46:40.000 the Bible explicitly state, okay? 46:40.000 --> 46:45.000 When you start just getting rid of just clear statements, it's scary where 46:45.000 --> 46:47.000 you're going to land, okay? 46:47.000 --> 46:51.000 But you go back to Galatians chapter number 3, what are we saying? 46:51.000 --> 46:57.000 The covenant given to Abraham, the promise of the promised land, which was 46:57.000 --> 47:01.000 given through Jesus Christ, the law didn't change. 47:01.000 --> 47:04.000 It had no impact on that. 47:04.000 --> 47:09.000 It says in verse 18, for if the inheritance be of the law, it is no more 47:09.000 --> 47:14.000 a promise, but God gave it to Abraham by promise. 47:14.000 --> 47:19.000 Wherefore, meaning why, then serveth the law. 47:19.000 --> 47:24.000 It was added because of transgressions, till the seed should come to whom the 47:24.000 --> 47:29.000 promise was made, and it was ordained by angels in the hand of a mediator. 47:29.000 --> 47:31.000 So think about what he's just saying. 47:31.000 --> 47:33.000 Then what's the point of the law? 47:33.000 --> 47:34.000 Okay? 47:34.000 --> 47:35.000 Why have the law? 47:35.000 --> 47:37.000 Well, notice it was given because of transgressions. 47:37.000 --> 47:39.000 That's the answer. 47:39.000 --> 47:44.000 But it also says till the seed should come to whom the promise was made. 47:44.000 --> 47:48.000 Here's another, just a clear statement. 47:48.000 --> 47:49.000 Who's the seed? 47:49.000 --> 47:50.000 Jesus. 47:50.000 --> 47:52.000 Who was the promise made to? 47:52.000 --> 47:54.000 Jesus. 47:54.000 --> 47:59.000 Did the law grant the children of Israel this land by inheritance? 47:59.000 --> 48:00.000 No. 48:00.000 --> 48:04.000 At no point did the law ever give the children of Israel the land at all in this 48:04.000 --> 48:05.000 context. 48:05.000 --> 48:06.000 Okay? 48:06.000 --> 48:08.000 And what's the context? 48:08.000 --> 48:10.000 An everlasting possession. 48:10.000 --> 48:14.000 If you actually read, you'll read it's like this everlasting possession that is 48:14.000 --> 48:17.000 theirs, that they've inherited as their possession. 48:17.000 --> 48:19.000 There's a thing, obviously they lived on it. 48:19.000 --> 48:21.000 Abraham lived there. 48:21.000 --> 48:22.000 Think about this. 48:22.000 --> 48:26.000 Abraham was literally living there, but it was not his everlasting possession. 48:26.000 --> 48:29.000 He didn't have possession of it in that sense. 48:29.000 --> 48:31.000 He did not receive that promise. 48:31.000 --> 48:33.000 And that's another point I'm going to make in a minute. 48:33.000 --> 48:37.000 But Abraham did not receive this promise in his life. 48:37.000 --> 48:39.000 Isaac did not receive this promise. 48:39.000 --> 48:41.000 Jacob did not receive this promise. 48:41.000 --> 48:43.000 We're waiting until what? 48:43.000 --> 48:47.000 Till the seed should come to whom the promise was actually made. 48:47.000 --> 48:49.000 And Jesus will inherit this. 48:49.000 --> 48:53.000 Look, Jesus himself has not even taken his seed. 48:53.000 --> 48:58.000 He himself has not even taken his inheritance yet. 48:58.000 --> 49:00.000 What do you think the millennial reign is? 49:00.000 --> 49:02.000 Let me explain something to you. 49:02.000 --> 49:07.000 That's when Jesus is going to take possession of his inheritance. 49:07.000 --> 49:12.000 And those that are with Christ will then also inherit with him. 49:12.000 --> 49:16.000 And that's, Abraham will take possession of the promised land in the 49:16.000 --> 49:18.000 millennial reign. 49:18.000 --> 49:22.000 Isaac will take possession of the promised land in the millennial reign. 49:22.000 --> 49:26.000 Jacob and Israel, that's his name, Israel, will take possession of the 49:26.000 --> 49:29.000 promised land in the millennial reign of Christ. 49:29.000 --> 49:30.000 Let me tell you something. 49:30.000 --> 49:34.000 Judas Iscariot never had possession of the promised land. 49:34.000 --> 49:38.000 Bibi Netanyahu is not in possession of the promised land. 49:38.000 --> 49:42.000 These people are just squatters. 49:42.000 --> 49:44.000 Okay? 49:44.000 --> 49:48.000 Look, if I just come over to your house, if I just go to your house and 49:48.000 --> 49:51.000 you're not there, if I just walk into your house, is it now just my house? 49:51.000 --> 49:54.000 Is that how it works? 49:54.000 --> 49:57.000 I mean, look, if people just cross the border and just come into America and 49:57.000 --> 49:59.000 they're just standing on the land, is it just now their land? 49:59.000 --> 50:02.000 Or are they like an illegal immigrant? 50:02.000 --> 50:03.000 How about this? 50:03.000 --> 50:09.000 What if you move out of your house, buy a new house, and then, you know, you 50:09.000 --> 50:13.000 have this house that you're not using, and you say, why do I just have this 50:13.000 --> 50:14.000 house I'm not using? 50:14.000 --> 50:15.000 You know what I'm going to do? 50:15.000 --> 50:17.000 I'm going to write up a contract. 50:17.000 --> 50:18.000 It's called a lease agreement. 50:18.000 --> 50:19.000 It's called a right of way. 50:19.000 --> 50:20.000 I'm going to write up a contract. 50:20.000 --> 50:21.000 It's called a lease agreement. 50:21.000 --> 50:22.000 It's called a rental contract. 50:22.000 --> 50:25.000 And I'm going to offer someone to live there, and I'm going to say, hey, you 50:25.000 --> 50:28.000 want to live here, you pay me money, you're going to have terms and agreements, 50:28.000 --> 50:31.000 you're going to have this whole contract laid out, you're going to say, hey, 50:31.000 --> 50:36.000 you stay here, you can live here, it's good, you break the rules, I'm going to 50:36.000 --> 50:39.000 evict you, you're not going to live here, and you just allow people to live in 50:39.000 --> 50:42.000 your house while you're not there. 50:42.000 --> 50:44.000 Look, this is what the law was. 50:44.000 --> 50:46.000 The law was the rental agreement. 50:46.000 --> 50:48.000 The law was the lease agreement. 50:48.000 --> 50:52.000 Did the rental agreement change the ownership of the house at any point? 50:52.000 --> 50:55.000 It had nothing to do with ownership. 50:55.000 --> 50:57.000 It never will have anything to do with ownership. 50:57.000 --> 50:59.000 It was simply the lease agreement. 50:59.000 --> 51:03.000 It was the rental contract for the children of Israel, and if they kept God's 51:03.000 --> 51:05.000 commandments, they were gotten to stay there. 51:05.000 --> 51:09.000 When they broke God's commandments, he evicted them and kicked them out. 51:09.000 --> 51:13.000 This is a back and forth constantly throughout the entire Old Testament. 51:13.000 --> 51:17.000 Obviously, 70 A.D., he's like, you're done. 51:17.000 --> 51:18.000 Think about this. 51:18.000 --> 51:23.000 What if you broke, what if your parents rented a house 50 years ago? 51:23.000 --> 51:28.000 50 years ago, your parents rented a house, and then you show up and you say, 51:28.000 --> 51:31.000 hey, this is still my house to live in. 51:31.000 --> 51:33.000 They're like, why? 51:33.000 --> 51:35.000 Well, my parents signed a rental agreement 50 years ago. 51:35.000 --> 51:39.000 Yeah, but they broke it and they got evicted, and I have no agreement with you. 51:39.000 --> 51:42.000 Look, this is 1948, folks. 51:42.000 --> 51:47.000 1948, a bunch of Jews are just showing up saying, yeah, my grandpa's, my back, 51:47.000 --> 51:48.000 back, back, back, back. 51:48.000 --> 51:49.000 They had a rental agreement. 51:49.000 --> 51:52.000 Yeah, but they broke it and God kicked them out, and no, you don't have any 51:52.000 --> 51:54.000 right to this land anymore. 51:54.000 --> 51:57.000 And then they say, Genesis 12. 51:57.000 --> 52:00.000 Dude, Genesis 12 is about Jesus. 52:00.000 --> 52:02.000 It's about all nations. 52:02.000 --> 52:04.000 It's about the Gentiles being saved. 52:04.000 --> 52:05.000 It's about this promise. 52:05.000 --> 52:07.000 Well, but that promise is to us. 52:07.000 --> 52:09.000 No, the promise is never to you. 52:09.000 --> 52:12.000 The law was to you, but you broke the law. 52:12.000 --> 52:16.000 And when you broke the law, God didn't honor the contract anymore. 52:16.000 --> 52:21.000 And then you had to make a new covenant with the House of Israel, which is called 52:21.000 --> 52:22.000 the New Testament. 52:22.000 --> 52:24.000 Welcome to the New Testament. 52:24.000 --> 52:26.000 You don't have any rights to that land. 52:26.000 --> 52:27.000 Why? 52:27.000 --> 52:30.000 Because God's promise to Abraham was to Jesus Christ. 52:30.000 --> 52:32.000 It was not to the Jews. 52:32.000 --> 52:34.000 It was not to the Gentiles. 52:34.000 --> 52:36.000 It was not to the Gentiles. 52:36.000 --> 52:38.000 It was not to the Jews. 52:38.000 --> 52:40.000 It was not to just carte blanche Israel. 52:40.000 --> 52:43.000 It's not just a BB Netanyahu. 52:43.000 --> 52:45.000 God doesn't care about him. 52:45.000 --> 52:49.000 He's not a respecter of persons. 52:49.000 --> 52:52.000 Verse 20, now, mediator is not a mediator of one, but God is one. 52:52.000 --> 52:56.000 Is the law then against the promises of God? 52:56.000 --> 52:57.000 God forbid. 52:57.000 --> 53:00.000 For if there had been a law given which could have given life, verily, 53:00.000 --> 53:03.000 righteousness should have been by the law. 53:03.000 --> 53:08.000 So again, I use this analogy because it's very easy to understand. 53:08.000 --> 53:15.000 Let's assume you have two houses and you have a son, and he's one years old. 53:15.000 --> 53:19.000 And you're like, you know what, this other house, I'm going to, it's my son's. 53:19.000 --> 53:20.000 I've decided it's my son's house. 53:20.000 --> 53:21.000 I'm going to give it to him. 53:21.000 --> 53:25.000 But since he's one year old, you know what, he's going to still live with me. 53:25.000 --> 53:27.000 I'm still going to feed him. 53:27.000 --> 53:29.000 He's not going to live in that house. 53:29.000 --> 53:30.000 You know what? 53:30.000 --> 53:34.000 I'm going to let some other people rent in this house and live in this house 53:34.000 --> 53:40.000 until my son grows up and until my son wants to claim his possession 53:40.000 --> 53:45.000 in the same way that the law of God was not against the promises of God. 53:45.000 --> 53:53.000 God promising that house to Jesus Christ, God promising the land to Jesus. 53:53.000 --> 53:57.000 It's not nullified by allowing the children of Israel to temporarily 53:57.000 --> 54:03.000 until Jesus comes to claim it, until Jesus comes to take possession of it 54:03.000 --> 54:05.000 and inherit that particular land. 54:05.000 --> 54:08.000 And so we have to understand there's nothing wrong with the law. 54:08.000 --> 54:10.000 The law was just there. 54:10.000 --> 54:12.000 And again, what's the purpose of the law again? 54:12.000 --> 54:14.000 Because of transgressions. 54:14.000 --> 54:16.000 Why did God create this contract? 54:16.000 --> 54:17.000 Same reason. 54:17.000 --> 54:23.000 Couldn't I just go to like Brother Sam and just say, oh, you need a place to stay? 54:23.000 --> 54:24.000 You can stay in my house. 54:24.000 --> 54:25.000 We're good. 54:25.000 --> 54:27.000 Couldn't I just do that? 54:27.000 --> 54:30.000 But why would I sign a rental contract? 54:30.000 --> 54:34.000 Why would I draw up like what happens when he stops making payments? 54:34.000 --> 54:38.000 Why would I draw up what happens when he starts graffiti on the wall? 54:38.000 --> 54:39.000 Why would I? 54:39.000 --> 54:43.000 I create a contract because of transgressions. 54:43.000 --> 54:47.000 I'm trying to explain to you like, hey, when you do this, this is what's going to happen. 54:47.000 --> 54:50.000 Now, if he was perfect, does he need a rental contract? 54:50.000 --> 54:51.000 Do I need a contract? 54:51.000 --> 54:52.000 Do I need to protect it? 54:52.000 --> 54:53.000 No. 54:53.000 --> 54:54.000 In the same way. 54:54.000 --> 54:59.000 Look, do you really need to know what's going on in Leviticus 20 if no one ever did those things in Leviticus 20? 54:59.000 --> 55:01.000 I wish I hadn't even heard about it. 55:01.000 --> 55:02.000 OK. 55:02.000 --> 55:04.000 I don't even want to know what they're doing. 55:04.000 --> 55:07.000 Why was Leviticus 20 added? 55:07.000 --> 55:13.000 Because when someone does this weird junk, we know, OK, well, execution. 55:13.000 --> 55:14.000 I mean, we're going to burn it with fire. 55:14.000 --> 55:15.000 Literally. 55:15.000 --> 55:19.000 I mean, Leviticus 20 is like, say, some people just burn these people with fire. 55:19.000 --> 55:20.000 Why? 55:20.000 --> 55:21.000 Because those people were bad. 55:21.000 --> 55:23.000 Oh, murderers should be put to death. 55:23.000 --> 55:24.000 Right. 55:24.000 --> 55:26.000 If no one ever committed murder, we wouldn't need that. 55:26.000 --> 55:29.000 And again, why are rental contracts so long? 55:29.000 --> 55:33.000 Because people have done all those things in those rental contracts. 55:33.000 --> 55:34.000 OK. 55:34.000 --> 55:38.000 There's a reason why they exist. 55:38.000 --> 55:45.000 When you kind of understand just these basic principles in life, they kind of help you to understand what's being communicated here. 55:45.000 --> 55:48.000 Because did you notice in verse 15, I want to say this again, 55:48.000 --> 55:51.000 Brethren, I speak after the manner of men. 55:51.000 --> 55:53.000 There'll be a man's covenant. 55:53.000 --> 55:54.000 What does he say? 55:54.000 --> 55:55.000 He's trying to be relatable. 55:55.000 --> 56:02.000 He's saying, like, look, we have contracts, we have rental agreements, we have house agreements, and that should help you understand how God's operating. 56:02.000 --> 56:04.000 It's the same way. 56:04.000 --> 56:07.000 A man's covenant is the same thing that God's bringing up. 56:07.000 --> 56:09.000 It works the same way. 56:09.000 --> 56:10.000 These are the same principles. 56:10.000 --> 56:13.000 We're operating the same way God operates. 56:13.000 --> 56:16.000 We're just copying him. 56:17.000 --> 56:22.000 Now, he says in verse number 22, But the scripture has concluded all under sin. 56:22.000 --> 56:26.000 That the promise by faith of Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe. 56:26.000 --> 56:34.000 So he's saying, look, salvation itself, going back to the broader context, was never given by the law, just like the land wasn't given by the law. 56:34.000 --> 56:38.000 No one was saved by keeping the works of the law or doing these things. 56:38.000 --> 56:40.000 You were saved by your faith in Jesus Christ. 56:40.000 --> 56:42.000 No one's ever been saved by the works of law. 56:42.000 --> 56:43.000 No one can be saved. 56:43.000 --> 56:48.000 If it was possible, then God would have given that particular statute, but you can't. 56:48.000 --> 56:51.000 The scripture concluded we're all sinners. 56:51.000 --> 56:56.000 So therefore we have to be saved and we have to be saved by faith in Jesus Christ. 56:56.000 --> 56:59.000 Verse 23, But before faith came, we were kept under the law. 56:59.000 --> 57:02.000 Shut up under the faith, which should afterwards be revealed. 57:02.000 --> 57:08.000 Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith. 57:08.000 --> 57:12.000 But after that faith has come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster. 57:12.000 --> 57:19.000 So again, once you get saved, you know, you have the ability to walk in the spirit. 57:19.000 --> 57:32.000 And instead of keeping God's commandments out of just basic fear and just instruction of the law, you can keep God's commandments out of walking in the spirit and love for Christ. 57:32.000 --> 57:39.000 So it's empowering you to keep the law better than just simply having learned it from the schoolmaster of the law. 57:39.000 --> 57:42.000 You know, in the sense that, hey, commit this sin. 57:42.000 --> 57:43.000 God punishes you. 57:43.000 --> 57:45.000 That's one reason to keep the law. 57:45.000 --> 57:46.000 There could be another reason. 57:46.000 --> 57:49.000 Like, I just love Jesus and I want to do what's right. 57:49.000 --> 57:53.000 And now that I have Christ, I don't need that schoolmaster as much. 57:53.000 --> 58:00.000 I can simply rely upon my relationship with Jesus Christ and I can walk in the spirit. 58:00.000 --> 58:07.000 He says in verse number 26 for you're all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus. 58:07.000 --> 58:13.000 Did it say you're all you're all children because you're related to Bibi Netanyahu? 58:13.000 --> 58:20.000 You're all children because of, quote, your ancestors, because of your descendants, because of a physical lineage? 58:20.000 --> 58:24.000 No, we're all children of God by faith in Christ Jesus. 58:24.000 --> 58:30.000 So point number one, and we've established this very clearly, the promise is about Jesus. 58:30.000 --> 58:35.000 And just think let's just think about this for a second before I move on. 58:36.000 --> 58:41.000 You know, we're supposed to bless Abraham and bless his seed and then we get blessed. 58:41.000 --> 58:45.000 And if we curse Abraham, we curse Jesus, we're going to be cursed. 58:45.000 --> 58:51.000 If it was true that this is, quote, about the Jews, it makes no sense. 58:51.000 --> 58:53.000 Because why why am I blessed by Jesus? 58:53.000 --> 58:56.000 Because if I believe in Jesus, I get saved. 58:56.000 --> 58:57.000 Right. 58:57.000 --> 58:59.000 That's what I get the blessing from. 58:59.000 --> 59:02.000 How is just Jews existing? 59:02.000 --> 59:03.000 A blessing. 59:05.000 --> 59:12.000 I mean, Jesus coming to this earth, dying on the cross, taking all my sin, becoming a curse for me so that I could get salvation. 59:12.000 --> 59:14.000 That was a blessing on me. 59:14.000 --> 59:18.000 How does just Jews existing bless me? 59:18.000 --> 59:20.000 Why am I just blessing? 59:20.000 --> 59:27.000 Hey, this person, they're just he was born and went to bar mitzvahs and owns a bank. 59:27.000 --> 59:30.000 He just he just blesses me by existing. 59:30.000 --> 59:31.000 Why? Why is it? 59:31.000 --> 59:36.000 Why would it be like God is just saying like you guys just really bless Harvey Weinstein? 59:36.000 --> 59:41.000 He's the bless his existence because much use exist. 59:41.000 --> 59:42.000 Bless them. 59:42.000 --> 59:46.000 Therefore, it makes sense that I would bless Jesus because he actually did something for me. 59:46.000 --> 59:48.000 He died on the cross for me. 59:48.000 --> 59:51.000 He bare all my sins in his own body on the tree. 59:51.000 --> 59:53.000 He became a curse for me. 59:53.000 --> 01:00:00.000 So therefore, I want to bless Jesus because what he did for me, what did the Jew do for me? 01:00:00.000 --> 01:00:09.000 What did just random Jews do for me that I have to just sit here and be like, OK, God, let's just bless this Jew because he exists. 01:00:09.000 --> 01:00:22.000 Even from God's perspective, God just looking down, here's a Jew that doesn't believe in me, has a weird religion, wears this tiny hat that's blasphemous, has pigtails, is charging interest to everybody, hates everyone. 01:00:22.000 --> 01:00:24.000 And why is God looking at you? 01:00:24.000 --> 01:00:29.000 Need to make sure to bless this guy. 01:00:29.000 --> 01:00:31.000 Why? 01:00:31.000 --> 01:00:35.000 And again, many Christians, yeah, they're kind of screwed up. 01:00:35.000 --> 01:00:38.000 Yeah, technically they own every pornography business. 01:00:38.000 --> 01:00:41.000 And yeah, technically they're in charge of all the Fed. 01:00:41.000 --> 01:00:44.000 Yeah, technically they're getting dragged us into all these wars. 01:00:44.000 --> 01:00:46.000 And yeah, technically they spit when they hear the name of Jesus. 01:00:46.000 --> 01:00:49.000 And yeah, technically their their talmud is completely blasphemous. 01:00:49.000 --> 01:00:50.000 But you know what? 01:00:50.000 --> 01:00:52.000 God said we supposed to bless them. 01:00:52.000 --> 01:00:56.000 Have you ever thought like why? 01:00:56.000 --> 01:00:58.000 Like it kind of makes sense. 01:00:58.000 --> 01:01:02.000 Hey, you're supposed to bless Jesus because of what Jesus done for us. 01:01:02.000 --> 01:01:04.000 What's what's the other argument? 01:01:04.000 --> 01:01:08.000 Let's use because they exist. 01:01:08.000 --> 01:01:14.000 I mean, like it's weird that I even have to explain what I'm saying right now. 01:01:14.000 --> 01:01:19.000 I'm just thinking like are these people even tried to argue these points before? 01:01:19.000 --> 01:01:24.000 Bless Jews, cuz cuz cuz Genesis 12 again. 01:01:24.000 --> 01:01:25.000 But it didn't say that. 01:01:25.000 --> 01:01:28.000 Jews don't even exist in Genesis, chapter 12. 01:01:28.000 --> 01:01:32.000 I mean, you don't even have Israel until a couple generations. 01:01:32.000 --> 01:01:35.000 And then even then you start to get the Judah. 01:01:35.000 --> 01:01:40.000 Then you can start saying, now we have a Jew Judah. 01:01:40.000 --> 01:01:44.000 OK, and Judah is kind of rough, man. 01:01:44.000 --> 01:01:46.000 I mean, like Judah has his good points to not. 01:01:46.000 --> 01:01:53.000 I'm not saying Judah is a bad guy, but he starts out and it's kind of like this is a good guy in the story. 01:01:54.000 --> 01:02:05.000 He's into incest and prostitution, kind of sounds like Jews and incest and prostitution. 01:02:05.000 --> 01:02:07.000 So point number one is real simple. 01:02:07.000 --> 01:02:08.000 We're making we're trying to make this really simple. 01:02:08.000 --> 01:02:09.000 What is God's promise Abraham? 01:02:09.000 --> 01:02:11.000 It's Jesus. 01:02:11.000 --> 01:02:12.000 It's all about Jesus. 01:02:12.000 --> 01:02:18.000 Number two, the promise is to all who believe it's not limited to a certain group of people. 01:02:18.000 --> 01:02:20.000 It is to all that believe. 01:02:20.000 --> 01:02:21.000 Did you notice that again in verse 26? 01:02:21.000 --> 01:02:25.000 For you're all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus. 01:02:25.000 --> 01:02:28.000 All who believe receive God's promise to Abraham. 01:02:28.000 --> 01:02:30.000 Isn't that nice? 01:02:30.000 --> 01:02:31.000 What if I said, you know what? 01:02:31.000 --> 01:02:37.000 God decided that this guy with a giant nose is blessed and you just have to bless him no matter what. 01:02:37.000 --> 01:02:40.000 And you're not blessed magically. 01:02:40.000 --> 01:02:42.000 As opposed to saying, you know what? 01:02:42.000 --> 01:02:47.000 Every single person has the same opportunity to believe in Jesus Christ and be blessed. 01:02:47.000 --> 01:02:50.000 So God's promise to Abraham was not to one group of people. 01:02:50.000 --> 01:02:52.000 Isn't it to all families of the earth? 01:02:52.000 --> 01:02:54.000 Isn't it to all nations of the earth? 01:02:54.000 --> 01:02:56.000 Isn't it to the Gentiles? 01:02:56.000 --> 01:02:58.000 Isn't it to the heathen? 01:02:58.000 --> 01:03:01.000 Yes, it's to all people. 01:03:01.000 --> 01:03:06.000 The promise from God to Abraham is to all who believe. 01:03:06.000 --> 01:03:07.000 Verse 27. 01:03:07.000 --> 01:03:14.000 For as many as you have been baptized in Christ have put on Christ, there is neither Jew nor Greek. 01:03:14.000 --> 01:03:15.000 There is neither bond nor free. 01:03:15.000 --> 01:03:16.000 There is neither male nor female. 01:03:16.000 --> 01:03:19.000 For you're all one in Christ Jesus. 01:03:19.000 --> 01:03:25.000 How can you sit here and say being Jew is special when Galatians is saying, hey, there isn't even a Jew. 01:03:25.000 --> 01:03:27.000 Jews don't even exist. 01:03:27.000 --> 01:03:31.000 There is neither Jew nor Greek. 01:03:31.000 --> 01:03:33.000 You're all one in Christ Jesus. 01:03:33.000 --> 01:03:35.000 Jesus is the equalizer. 01:03:35.000 --> 01:03:39.000 He takes whoever you were and makes you a child of God. 01:03:39.000 --> 01:03:41.000 And now we're all equals. 01:03:41.000 --> 01:03:43.000 It doesn't matter who you were. 01:03:43.000 --> 01:03:44.000 It matters who you are. 01:03:44.000 --> 01:03:48.000 And who you are is a child of God by faith in Jesus Christ. 01:03:48.000 --> 01:03:53.000 And the promise that God gave to Abraham was to all who believe. 01:03:53.000 --> 01:03:55.000 Let's go to Luke chapter 2. 01:03:55.000 --> 01:03:56.000 Let's go to Luke chapter 2. 01:03:56.000 --> 01:03:59.000 This is the thing that's mentioned when Jesus Christ comes. 01:03:59.000 --> 01:04:01.000 That it's to all people. 01:04:01.000 --> 01:04:02.000 Jesus is not for some people. 01:04:02.000 --> 01:04:04.000 He's for all people. 01:04:04.000 --> 01:04:06.000 Don't be a Calvinist. 01:04:06.000 --> 01:04:08.000 Jesus died for everyone. 01:04:08.000 --> 01:04:11.000 That he should taste death for every man. 01:04:11.000 --> 01:04:15.000 He's the Savior of all men, especially those that believe. 01:04:15.000 --> 01:04:20.000 I debated a Calvinist and he was sitting here saying every verse. 01:04:20.000 --> 01:04:22.000 And I said, what about that one? 01:04:22.000 --> 01:04:23.000 He's just like, yeah, I have no idea. 01:04:23.000 --> 01:04:26.000 Cat got your tongue? 01:04:26.000 --> 01:04:28.000 Yeah. 01:04:28.000 --> 01:04:31.000 Hey, he's the Savior of all men, especially those that believe. 01:04:31.000 --> 01:04:33.000 What does that mean? 01:04:33.000 --> 01:04:35.000 It's everyone, folks. 01:04:35.000 --> 01:04:39.000 He's not the propitiation for our sins only, but also for the whole world. 01:04:39.000 --> 01:04:40.000 You know what world means? 01:04:40.000 --> 01:04:42.000 Everyone. 01:04:42.000 --> 01:04:44.000 It's just all people, all men. 01:04:44.000 --> 01:04:49.000 Of course, Luke chapter number 2 is a great story about the Lord Jesus Christ, his birth. 01:04:49.000 --> 01:04:52.000 Look what it says in verse 10. 01:04:52.000 --> 01:04:58.000 And the angel said unto them, fear not, for behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, 01:04:58.000 --> 01:05:03.000 which shall be to all people. 01:05:03.000 --> 01:05:08.000 Notice again, what is the promise of God to Abraham is to all people. 01:05:08.000 --> 01:05:09.000 What is it? 01:05:09.000 --> 01:05:10.000 It's Jesus Christ. 01:05:10.000 --> 01:05:16.000 And of course, verse 14, glory to God on the highest and on earth peace, goodwill toward just men. 01:05:16.000 --> 01:05:19.000 Just in general, just goodwill towards men. 01:05:19.000 --> 01:05:21.000 The Bible is not racist. 01:05:21.000 --> 01:05:23.000 False religion is racist. 01:05:23.000 --> 01:05:28.000 And of course, you know, Judaism is one of the most satanic religions ever. 01:05:28.000 --> 01:05:35.000 Isn't it so funny that its bastard child, the black Hebrew Israelites, also think that they're special because of physical 01:05:35.000 --> 01:05:38.000 Whereas the gospel teaches, you know what? 01:05:38.000 --> 01:05:43.000 You're special because you believe in Jesus, not because of who you were, because of who you are. 01:05:43.000 --> 01:05:46.000 And who you are is someone that believes in Jesus Christ. 01:05:46.000 --> 01:05:50.000 Therefore, you're a child of God by faith in Jesus Christ. 01:05:50.000 --> 01:05:51.000 Go to Hebrews chapter 11. 01:05:51.000 --> 01:05:52.000 Go to Hebrews chapter 11. 01:05:52.000 --> 01:05:57.000 So look, the promise was not given to a physical nation. 01:05:57.000 --> 01:06:00.000 The promise was given to those who believe. 01:06:00.000 --> 01:06:05.000 Even Abraham himself did not receive the promises in his lifetime. 01:06:05.000 --> 01:06:06.000 This is an important point. 01:06:06.000 --> 01:06:09.000 Look at Hebrews chapter 11, verse one. 01:06:09.000 --> 01:06:11.000 We're learning what faith is. 01:06:11.000 --> 01:06:17.000 Now, faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. 01:06:17.000 --> 01:06:25.000 If Abraham obtained the promised land by a promise, that means he did not see it. 01:06:25.000 --> 01:06:30.000 It was by faith, meaning he did not have the possession. 01:06:30.000 --> 01:06:31.000 He was in there. 01:06:31.000 --> 01:06:32.000 He could actually see the land. 01:06:32.000 --> 01:06:37.000 But that's not the actual time when he inherited the promised land. 01:06:37.000 --> 01:06:39.000 It was by faith. 01:06:39.000 --> 01:06:41.000 And faith is not something that you see. 01:06:41.000 --> 01:06:43.000 Faith is something that you believe. 01:06:43.000 --> 01:06:46.000 And it's the evidence of things hoped for. 01:06:46.000 --> 01:06:47.000 What is it? 01:06:47.000 --> 01:06:48.000 He's hoping for the promised land. 01:06:48.000 --> 01:06:50.000 He's hoping for this country. 01:06:50.000 --> 01:06:52.000 That's what the whole point of this particular chapter is. 01:06:52.000 --> 01:06:53.000 This is the hall of faith. 01:06:53.000 --> 01:06:54.000 Look at verse eight. 01:06:54.000 --> 01:07:00.000 By faith, Abraham, when he was called to go out into a place which he should after receive 01:07:00.000 --> 01:07:04.000 for inheritance, obeyed, and he went out, not knowing whether he went. 01:07:04.000 --> 01:07:08.000 By faith, he sojourned in the land of promise. 01:07:08.000 --> 01:07:11.000 That's an important verse right there. 01:07:11.000 --> 01:07:15.000 Notice it doesn't say he had possession of the promised land. 01:07:15.000 --> 01:07:20.000 Sojourned, meaning he's temporarily dwelling in the promised land. 01:07:21.000 --> 01:07:22.000 He didn't receive it. 01:07:22.000 --> 01:07:24.000 He doesn't have the inheritance. 01:07:24.000 --> 01:07:28.000 He's just simply traveling there, dwelling in there temporarily. 01:07:28.000 --> 01:07:30.000 And it's promised him. 01:07:30.000 --> 01:07:32.000 He's going to get it at some point. 01:07:32.000 --> 01:07:33.000 You're going to have this. 01:07:33.000 --> 01:07:38.000 If you tour the house that you're going to buy but you haven't signed the contract, it's 01:07:38.000 --> 01:07:39.000 not yours yet. 01:07:39.000 --> 01:07:42.000 You're just touring the house. 01:07:42.000 --> 01:07:47.000 You can even technically, there's some contracts now. 01:07:48.000 --> 01:07:52.000 I've heard of this where you can actually get into the house that you're buying before 01:07:52.000 --> 01:07:53.000 you own it. 01:07:53.000 --> 01:08:01.000 Since it takes a lot of dominoes to buy a house, sometimes it's difficult because somebody 01:08:01.000 --> 01:08:04.000 has to sell their house on contingency. 01:08:04.000 --> 01:08:08.000 And then the person that offers to buy their house buys it on contingency. 01:08:08.000 --> 01:08:12.000 And then the next person, like I've heard of mortgage companies literally having 14 01:08:12.000 --> 01:08:17.000 contingencies on the same day in order for a whole transaction to go through. 01:08:17.000 --> 01:08:22.000 But because of all these timing issues and differences, sometimes people need to like 01:08:22.000 --> 01:08:27.000 get into the house before they can actually technically buy it for the contract date. 01:08:27.000 --> 01:08:31.000 And so what they do is when they set up all the agreement, they actually have like a little 01:08:31.000 --> 01:08:37.000 like four or five day rental agreement before they even like take possession of the house 01:08:37.000 --> 01:08:41.000 and sign the contract and actually officially buy it. 01:08:41.000 --> 01:08:44.000 Abraham is just renting still. 01:08:44.000 --> 01:08:47.000 He doesn't actually have possession. 01:08:47.000 --> 01:08:48.000 Why? 01:08:48.000 --> 01:08:53.000 Because the person whose possession it truly is, is Jesus and he hasn't come to possess 01:08:53.000 --> 01:08:56.000 it and allow us to inherit with him. 01:08:56.000 --> 01:08:57.000 Okay. 01:08:57.000 --> 01:09:02.000 He's so journeying in the land of promise, as in a strange country, dwelling in tabernacles 01:09:02.000 --> 01:09:06.000 with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs with him of the same promise. 01:09:07.000 --> 01:09:11.000 For he looked for a city which have foundations whose builder and maker is God. 01:09:11.000 --> 01:09:15.000 Now, was Abraham looking for a physical city in this world? 01:09:15.000 --> 01:09:18.000 No, because he was looking for a heavenly city. 01:09:18.000 --> 01:09:28.000 It says verse 13 and it goes to Sarah and in talking about them receiving Isaac, but 01:09:28.000 --> 01:09:35.000 it says these all died in faith, not having received the promises. 01:09:35.000 --> 01:09:38.000 Did Abraham receive the promised land? 01:09:38.000 --> 01:09:39.000 No. 01:09:39.000 --> 01:09:45.000 How can you sit here and say in Genesis 12, Abraham got the promised land. 01:09:45.000 --> 01:09:47.000 Therefore, we still have it. 01:09:47.000 --> 01:09:52.000 The Bible says that Abraham did not receive the promise. 01:09:52.000 --> 01:09:54.000 You know who didn't receive the promise? 01:09:54.000 --> 01:09:55.000 Isaac. 01:09:55.000 --> 01:09:56.000 You know, didn't receive the promise? 01:09:56.000 --> 01:09:57.000 Jacob. 01:09:57.000 --> 01:09:58.000 You know, didn't receive the promise? 01:09:58.000 --> 01:09:59.000 Israel. 01:09:59.000 --> 01:10:00.000 You know, didn't receive the promise? 01:10:00.000 --> 01:10:01.000 Bibi Netanyahu. 01:10:01.000 --> 01:10:07.000 Because the promise is given to Jesus and Jesus has not claimed that yet. 01:10:07.000 --> 01:10:13.000 That's the millennial reign of Jesus Christ when he will seize the possession of his inheritance. 01:10:13.000 --> 01:10:19.000 His first coming was to be a ransom for us, was to die for us. 01:10:19.000 --> 01:10:22.000 It was to be a sacrifice for us. 01:10:22.000 --> 01:10:26.000 When he comes the second time, it will be to seize his inheritance. 01:10:26.000 --> 01:10:28.000 It will be to sit on the throne of David. 01:10:28.000 --> 01:10:38.000 It will be to rule with a rod of iron, not some feather duster of the NIV, of liberal churches today. 01:10:38.000 --> 01:10:40.000 No, Jesus Christ will rule with a rod of iron. 01:10:40.000 --> 01:10:42.000 That rod of iron is the King James Bible. 01:10:42.000 --> 01:10:45.000 It's the Word of God. 01:10:45.000 --> 01:10:47.000 That's what he will rule with. 01:10:47.000 --> 01:10:55.000 We'll all have the same version that day, all right? 01:10:55.000 --> 01:10:57.000 I'm noticing a pattern here. 01:10:57.000 --> 01:11:00.000 The Bible is consistent. 01:11:00.000 --> 01:11:02.000 You know, they're like, oh, well, that's just how you interpret it. 01:11:02.000 --> 01:11:04.000 Or that's just that one passage. 01:11:04.000 --> 01:11:06.000 No, no, that's all the passages. 01:11:06.000 --> 01:11:07.000 Every single passage. 01:11:07.000 --> 01:11:16.000 Verse 16, but now talking about these people, they desire a better country that is in heavenly, wherefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, for it prepared for them a city. 01:11:16.000 --> 01:11:28.000 By faith, Abraham, when he was tried, offered up Isaac, and he that had received the promises offered up his only begotten son, of whom it was said that an Isaac shall thy seed be called. 01:11:28.000 --> 01:11:31.000 Now, for sake of time, I'm not going to read this whole chapter. 01:11:31.000 --> 01:11:37.000 It's great, but again, verse 16, they're looking for that heavenly kingdom. 01:11:37.000 --> 01:11:39.000 Let's skip to verse 39. 01:11:39.000 --> 01:11:48.000 Now, again, in context, he brings up everybody brings up Isaac and Jacob and then just many of the children of Israel that were dwelling in the promised land. 01:11:48.000 --> 01:11:50.000 Notice this is the first 39. 01:11:50.000 --> 01:11:59.000 And these all having obtained a good report through faith, received not the promise. 01:11:59.000 --> 01:12:02.000 Oh, well, in 1948, they reclaimed the promised land. 01:12:02.000 --> 01:12:05.000 No, no one's ever even received it once. 01:12:05.000 --> 01:12:08.000 It has not yet been received. 01:12:08.000 --> 01:12:18.000 They were temporarily dwelling and their rental contract has been expired for almost 2000 years by now. 01:12:18.000 --> 01:12:20.000 Who knows if we'll make it to 2070? 01:12:20.000 --> 01:12:24.000 I don't know. 01:12:24.000 --> 01:12:29.000 But whether we do or not, it's almost 2000 years your rental contract has expired. 01:12:29.000 --> 01:12:33.000 Can we finally say like, it's over? 01:12:33.000 --> 01:12:35.000 Like, at what point is it over? 01:12:35.000 --> 01:12:38.000 No, no, Abraham. 01:12:38.000 --> 01:12:40.000 Ma bless Jews bless Israel. 01:12:40.000 --> 01:12:41.000 That's what the Bible says. 01:12:41.000 --> 01:12:46.000 I mean, Trump, I mean, Trump's a pretty great authority on the Bible. 01:12:46.000 --> 01:12:50.000 His favorite book of the Bible is two Corinthians. 01:12:50.000 --> 01:12:54.000 The guy that said he's never asked for forgiveness in his entire life. 01:12:54.000 --> 01:12:59.000 But if he if he ever sends, then he will. 01:12:59.000 --> 01:13:03.000 Yeah, I'm sure I'm sure he's never sent a single time. 01:13:03.000 --> 01:13:08.000 Sure, the Epstein files would confirm that. 01:13:08.000 --> 01:13:09.000 Look, the Bible is clear. 01:13:09.000 --> 01:13:11.000 The promise is those who believe. 01:13:11.000 --> 01:13:12.000 Now, here's the thing. 01:13:12.000 --> 01:13:14.000 We also have not received that yet. 01:13:14.000 --> 01:13:15.000 Go to Matthew 21. 01:13:15.000 --> 01:13:18.000 We will inherit when Christ inherits. 01:13:18.000 --> 01:13:20.000 We will receive it with Jesus. 01:13:20.000 --> 01:13:29.000 It's like, you know, in our earthly mind, we think about a house, three bedrooms, two bath house, four bedrooms, maybe five if you're in Texas. 01:13:29.000 --> 01:13:31.000 Sometimes you can get that. 01:13:31.000 --> 01:13:33.000 Everything's bigger in Texas. 01:13:33.000 --> 01:13:35.000 But like we can't all live in one house. 01:13:35.000 --> 01:13:42.000 But in this analogy, it's like what Jesus is inheriting is something where we can all live with him. 01:13:42.000 --> 01:13:43.000 It's big enough. 01:13:43.000 --> 01:13:45.000 We just can't show up. 01:13:45.000 --> 01:13:46.000 We can't show up to the big house. 01:13:46.000 --> 01:13:52.000 We can't show up to the big country, to the new heavenly Jerusalem until Jesus takes possession. 01:13:52.000 --> 01:13:56.000 But when he takes possession, we're taking possession with him and we get to inherit with him. 01:13:56.000 --> 01:14:00.000 We get to roll in and it's ours. 01:14:00.000 --> 01:14:02.000 Before then, there's nothing to inherit. 01:14:02.000 --> 01:14:04.000 There's nothing that we have. 01:14:04.000 --> 01:14:09.000 Now, what's interesting is Matthew 21 explains this whole thing that we've been talking about. 01:14:09.000 --> 01:14:14.000 This is Jesus explaining to the Jews, but he's doing it through a parable and they can't understand it. 01:14:14.000 --> 01:14:15.000 Look at verse 33. 01:14:15.000 --> 01:14:16.000 Here another parable. 01:14:16.000 --> 01:14:27.000 There was a certain householder which planted a vineyard and hedged it round about and digged a wine press in and built a tower and let it out to husbandmen and went into a far country. 01:14:27.000 --> 01:14:31.000 Now, you might just skip over these words and just not realize what it just said. 01:14:31.000 --> 01:14:35.000 Did you notice the phrase let it out? 01:14:35.000 --> 01:14:40.000 What does that mean? 01:14:40.000 --> 01:14:42.000 Lease it, rent it. 01:14:42.000 --> 01:14:48.000 Sometimes we just hear that and we don't like, you know, sometimes we still use this terminology. 01:14:48.000 --> 01:14:49.000 It's letting. 01:14:49.000 --> 01:14:51.000 People say like, hey, they're letting. 01:14:51.000 --> 01:14:59.000 We call it lease agreement, rental agreement more commonly, but many times they use that same language that's written here because that's what it's saying. 01:14:59.000 --> 01:15:02.000 He was renting it out. 01:15:02.000 --> 01:15:06.000 So who's the householder? 01:15:06.000 --> 01:15:09.000 Who's the guy in charge? 01:15:09.000 --> 01:15:12.000 God the Father. 01:15:12.000 --> 01:15:14.000 He has this vineyard. 01:15:14.000 --> 01:15:15.000 God the Father has this vineyard. 01:15:15.000 --> 01:15:17.000 He's allowing, that's the kingdom of God. 01:15:17.000 --> 01:15:23.000 He's allowing Jews to temporarily have possession of this. 01:15:23.000 --> 01:15:30.000 And when the time of the fruit drew near, so he wants us to produce fruit in the kingdom of God, he sent his servants to the husbandmen that they might receive the fruits of it. 01:15:30.000 --> 01:15:34.000 And the husband took his servants and beat one and killed another and stoned another. 01:15:34.000 --> 01:15:37.000 So you think they're not doing a good job at the property. 01:15:37.000 --> 01:15:39.000 They're not producing the fruit. 01:15:39.000 --> 01:15:41.000 They're ruining the fruit or they're not producing fruit. 01:15:41.000 --> 01:15:42.000 They're causing problems. 01:15:42.000 --> 01:15:44.000 So he sends servants to them. 01:15:44.000 --> 01:15:45.000 Who are these? 01:15:45.000 --> 01:15:52.000 Jeremiah, Isaiah, Uriah, Joel. 01:15:52.000 --> 01:15:56.000 He's sending different guys under them saying, hey, where's the fruit? 01:15:56.000 --> 01:15:58.000 Hey, repent. 01:15:58.000 --> 01:16:00.000 Hey, be a light under the Gentiles. 01:16:00.000 --> 01:16:02.000 What are you doing? 01:16:02.000 --> 01:16:03.000 And what did they do? 01:16:03.000 --> 01:16:04.000 They killed them. 01:16:04.000 --> 01:16:05.000 They stoned them. 01:16:05.000 --> 01:16:06.000 They beat them. 01:16:06.000 --> 01:16:08.000 They refused to listen to them. 01:16:08.000 --> 01:16:10.000 They said, you canceled our Red Hot Preaching Conference. 01:16:10.000 --> 01:16:12.000 You know, whatever. 01:16:12.000 --> 01:16:14.000 Don't talk to me anymore. 01:16:14.000 --> 01:16:18.000 I'm separating from you. 01:16:18.000 --> 01:16:22.000 Says in verse 36, again, he sent other servants. 01:16:22.000 --> 01:16:24.000 Here's some more. 01:16:24.000 --> 01:16:25.000 More than the first. 01:16:25.000 --> 01:16:27.000 And they did unto them likewise. 01:16:27.000 --> 01:16:31.000 But last of all, he sent unto them his son saying to the reverend's son, who's the son? 01:16:31.000 --> 01:16:34.000 That's pretty hard to figure out in the parable. 01:16:34.000 --> 01:16:36.000 It's Jesus Christ, the son of God. 01:16:36.000 --> 01:16:41.000 So the Jews are just sent all these prophets leading up to Malachi. 01:16:41.000 --> 01:16:45.000 And then he sends John the Baptist to prepare the way of the Lord. 01:16:45.000 --> 01:16:47.000 Then Jesus shows up. 01:16:47.000 --> 01:16:49.000 Surely they'll listen to Jesus. 01:16:49.000 --> 01:16:51.000 The word of God made flesh. 01:16:51.000 --> 01:16:53.000 Surely they'll listen to the truth. 01:16:53.000 --> 01:16:56.000 I mean, never a man spake like this man spake. 01:16:56.000 --> 01:16:58.000 But then what was their attitude? 01:16:58.000 --> 01:17:05.000 But when the husbandmen saw the son, they said among themselves, this is the heir. 01:17:05.000 --> 01:17:08.000 Oh, did they say, we're the heirs? 01:17:08.000 --> 01:17:10.000 We've already received it. 01:17:10.000 --> 01:17:11.000 This is ours. 01:17:11.000 --> 01:17:12.000 Nope. 01:17:12.000 --> 01:17:15.000 They said, hey, this guy's the heir. 01:17:15.000 --> 01:17:17.000 What was point one of the sermon? 01:17:17.000 --> 01:17:21.000 God's promise to Abraham is about Jesus. 01:17:21.000 --> 01:17:24.000 And then number two, it's to all those who believe. 01:17:24.000 --> 01:17:27.000 These people don't believe and they're not Jesus. 01:17:27.000 --> 01:17:32.000 So they're trying to say, hey, this guy's the heir. 01:17:32.000 --> 01:17:34.000 Come, let us kill him. 01:17:34.000 --> 01:17:35.000 And notice this. 01:17:35.000 --> 01:17:39.000 And let us seize on his inheritance. 01:17:39.000 --> 01:17:45.000 These people are trying to steal his land, steal his possessions, steal what's his. 01:17:45.000 --> 01:17:50.000 1948 is trying to seize on Jesus Christ's inheritance. 01:17:50.000 --> 01:17:52.000 Why did the Romans come? 01:17:52.000 --> 01:17:57.000 Because God was tired of them seizing his inheritance, trying to. 01:17:57.000 --> 01:18:02.000 So they caught him and they cast him out of the vineyard and slew him. 01:18:02.000 --> 01:18:04.000 Isn't that what they did to Jesus? 01:18:04.000 --> 01:18:07.000 They put him out without the city, on a cross. 01:18:07.000 --> 01:18:10.000 Give him to the Romans, killed him. 01:18:10.000 --> 01:18:13.000 When the Lord there for the vineyard cometh, what will we do under those husband men? 01:18:13.000 --> 01:18:18.000 They say to him, he will miserably destroy those wicked men. 01:18:18.000 --> 01:18:21.000 So what are the Jews call themselves? 01:18:21.000 --> 01:18:23.000 Wicked men. 01:18:23.000 --> 01:18:27.000 Jews call themselves wicked men and that God would miserably destroy them. 01:18:27.000 --> 01:18:28.000 You know what that is? 01:18:28.000 --> 01:18:29.000 It's called hell. 01:18:29.000 --> 01:18:33.000 It's also called 8070. 01:18:34.000 --> 01:18:39.000 I mean, the Romans miserably destroyed the Jews. 01:18:39.000 --> 01:18:43.000 Says in verse 42, Jesus saying that he never read in the scriptures, the stone which the 01:18:43.000 --> 01:18:47.000 builders rejected, the same has become the head of the corner. 01:18:47.000 --> 01:18:50.000 So something new was built when Jesus was rejected, the gospel. 01:18:50.000 --> 01:18:51.000 You know what was built? 01:18:51.000 --> 01:18:53.000 The New Testament. 01:18:53.000 --> 01:18:55.000 There's something new, the new kingdom of God. 01:18:55.000 --> 01:18:56.000 Something's changed. 01:18:56.000 --> 01:19:01.000 He says in verse 43, Therefore say I in you, the kingdom of God shall be taken from you 01:19:01.000 --> 01:19:05.000 and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof. 01:19:05.000 --> 01:19:06.000 So what happened? 01:19:06.000 --> 01:19:11.000 God took the kingdom of God away from the children of Israel physically and gave it 01:19:11.000 --> 01:19:16.000 under the spiritual children of Israel, which is the same believers. 01:19:16.000 --> 01:19:20.000 This is what you call replacement theology. 01:19:20.000 --> 01:19:24.000 More or less, obviously, some people have different ways of explaining it. 01:19:24.000 --> 01:19:25.000 Nuances. 01:19:25.000 --> 01:19:31.000 I like the term because it was taken away and given to someone else who's been replaced. 01:19:31.000 --> 01:19:36.000 The physical nation of Israel has been replaced by the spiritual nation of Israel and the 01:19:36.000 --> 01:19:42.000 spiritual nation of Israel is supposed to meet together and that's called church. 01:19:42.000 --> 01:19:46.000 And what's the whole point of church? 01:19:46.000 --> 01:19:50.000 I mean, what's the first work? 01:19:50.000 --> 01:19:53.000 Soul winning, bringing forth the fruit. 01:19:53.000 --> 01:19:57.000 Why was it that the nation was taken away? 01:19:57.000 --> 01:20:01.000 Because it was not bringing forth the fruits. 01:20:01.000 --> 01:20:04.000 So then it's given to someone that's going to do what? 01:20:04.000 --> 01:20:06.000 Produce the fruits. 01:20:06.000 --> 01:20:09.000 And then he warns a church that is not producing the fruits. 01:20:09.000 --> 01:20:12.000 He's going to take their candlestick away. 01:20:12.000 --> 01:20:15.000 Look, everything about the church is about us producing fruit. 01:20:15.000 --> 01:20:18.000 And again, the fruit is not the fruits of the spirit. 01:20:18.000 --> 01:20:22.000 It's us getting people saved, folks. 01:20:22.000 --> 01:20:28.000 God's not just up in heaven just like, I just really want you to have 30 joy today. 01:20:28.000 --> 01:20:30.000 The parable of the sower. 01:20:30.000 --> 01:20:31.000 He brought forth 30. 01:20:31.000 --> 01:20:33.000 Some bring forth 60. 01:20:33.000 --> 01:20:35.000 Some 100. 01:20:35.000 --> 01:20:36.000 What is that? 01:20:36.000 --> 01:20:38.000 Just some people are 100% joy. 01:20:38.000 --> 01:20:44.000 They're just like, I've never met this guy and he's not just joy. 01:20:44.000 --> 01:20:47.000 He's 100 joy, folks. 01:20:47.000 --> 01:20:49.000 Look, you know, I've never met that guy. 01:20:49.000 --> 01:20:52.000 And if I did, I'd probably weird it out. 01:20:52.000 --> 01:20:55.000 I'd be like, this guy is like high on drugs or something. 01:20:55.000 --> 01:20:56.000 You know what? 01:20:56.000 --> 01:20:59.000 I have met people that got 100 people saved. 01:20:59.000 --> 01:21:03.000 I met people that got 30 people saved, 60 people saved. 01:21:03.000 --> 01:21:05.000 I met people that got hundreds of people saved. 01:21:05.000 --> 01:21:09.000 And every season, they just keep bringing forth fruit every single season. 01:21:09.000 --> 01:21:12.000 That's what the Bible is talking about. 01:21:12.000 --> 01:21:13.000 Why were they replaced? 01:21:13.000 --> 01:21:16.000 Because they weren't bringing forth the fruit. 01:21:16.000 --> 01:21:17.000 And who are they giving it to? 01:21:17.000 --> 01:21:19.000 Some of them are going to bring forth the fruit. 01:21:19.000 --> 01:21:22.000 This is what the Bible is emphasizing. 01:21:22.000 --> 01:21:24.000 Now, go, if you would, to a few more places. 01:21:24.000 --> 01:21:26.000 Go, if you would, to Romans 11. 01:21:26.000 --> 01:21:29.000 You know, the Bible says in Romans chapter number 9, 01:21:29.000 --> 01:21:32.000 for they are not all Israel, which are of Israel. 01:21:32.000 --> 01:21:38.000 Riddle me what that means when you just define Israel as just always physical descendants. 01:21:38.000 --> 01:21:40.000 What does it actually mean? 01:21:40.000 --> 01:21:45.000 For they are not all spiritual Israel, which are of physical Israel. 01:21:45.000 --> 01:21:47.000 Spiritual Israel is those who believed. 01:21:47.000 --> 01:21:49.000 That's the Israel of God. 01:21:49.000 --> 01:21:52.000 Physical Israel were descendants of Jacob. 01:21:52.000 --> 01:21:54.000 And God doesn't care if they don't believe in him. 01:21:54.000 --> 01:21:56.000 He doesn't care about them. 01:21:56.000 --> 01:21:58.000 He's not a respecter of persons. 01:21:58.000 --> 01:22:00.000 They are not going to inherit the promises. 01:22:00.000 --> 01:22:04.000 They didn't inherit the promise now, and they won't inherit the promise later. 01:22:04.000 --> 01:22:08.000 The Bible says in Romans 2, but he is a Jew which is one inwardly, 01:22:08.000 --> 01:22:10.000 and circumcision is that of the heart and in the spirit, 01:22:10.000 --> 01:22:14.000 not in the letter whose praise is not of men but of God. 01:22:14.000 --> 01:22:17.000 Now, I was just curious and I was trying to figure out like, 01:22:17.000 --> 01:22:19.000 how do people argue with this? 01:22:19.000 --> 01:22:21.000 What's their best argument? 01:22:21.000 --> 01:22:24.000 What's the verse to prove anything I've said wrong today so far? 01:22:24.000 --> 01:22:30.000 And I even asked AI, you know, I was just like, hey, where am I missing? 01:22:30.000 --> 01:22:32.000 What am I missing? 01:22:32.000 --> 01:22:35.000 They said, Romans 11 verse 29. 01:22:35.000 --> 01:22:39.000 So you're ready for us to get proven wrong on everything I've just said? 01:22:39.000 --> 01:22:44.000 For the gifts and calling of God are without repentance. 01:22:44.000 --> 01:22:48.000 Ma, bless, Bibi, Netanyahu. 01:22:48.000 --> 01:22:50.000 Okay. 01:22:50.000 --> 01:22:53.000 Now, look, Romans 11 is a difficult chapter. 01:22:53.000 --> 01:22:55.000 It's probably one of the most difficult chapters in the Bible. 01:22:55.000 --> 01:22:57.000 In this sermon, I don't have the time to go through this. 01:22:57.000 --> 01:22:59.000 I'll go through this in a later sermon. 01:22:59.000 --> 01:23:00.000 This is not what it's saying. 01:23:00.000 --> 01:23:05.000 It's saying just look, whatever God offers is not going to be turned down. 01:23:05.000 --> 01:23:06.000 And what does he offer? 01:23:06.000 --> 01:23:08.000 The gift of eternal life. 01:23:08.000 --> 01:23:13.000 And hope of eternal life which God that cannot lie promised before the world began. 01:23:13.000 --> 01:23:17.000 Anyone who believes in Jesus can get saved. 01:23:17.000 --> 01:23:23.000 The Jews who rejected Jesus at that time and were not saved, 01:23:23.000 --> 01:23:27.000 at any point that they changed their mind and believed in Jesus, 01:23:27.000 --> 01:23:28.000 they were going to get saved. 01:23:28.000 --> 01:23:29.000 Why? 01:23:29.000 --> 01:23:32.000 For the gifts and calling of God are without repentance. 01:23:32.000 --> 01:23:34.000 That's what the passage is really saying. 01:23:34.000 --> 01:23:36.000 Keep reading, verse 30. 01:23:36.000 --> 01:23:40.000 For as ye in times past have not believed God, 01:23:40.000 --> 01:23:43.000 yet have now obtained mercy through their unbelief, 01:23:43.000 --> 01:23:46.000 even so have these also now not believed, 01:23:46.000 --> 01:23:51.000 that through your mercy they also may obtain mercy. 01:23:51.000 --> 01:23:53.000 So what is he saying? 01:23:53.000 --> 01:23:57.000 You guys as Gentiles as a whole pretty much didn't believe in God or believe the Bible, 01:23:57.000 --> 01:24:03.000 but God being merciful to you and still allowing you to just exist, 01:24:03.000 --> 01:24:08.000 gave you the opportunity for Paul and the apostles to come into you and preach the gospel and you got saved. 01:24:08.000 --> 01:24:14.000 In the same way, God hasn't quite destroyed the Jews at this time 01:24:14.000 --> 01:24:19.000 to just give them that chance that if at any point they decide, 01:24:19.000 --> 01:24:21.000 or Gentiles come to them and say, 01:24:21.000 --> 01:24:24.000 hey I know you're not believing but let me explain it to you again. 01:24:24.000 --> 01:24:28.000 If they change their mind they can believe and get saved. 01:24:28.000 --> 01:24:29.000 Why? 01:24:29.000 --> 01:24:35.000 Because even though they rejected the first time doesn't mean God took it off the table. 01:24:35.000 --> 01:24:37.000 God is long suffering. 01:24:37.000 --> 01:24:39.000 He gives us these opportunities. 01:24:39.000 --> 01:24:45.000 And look, everything that God did for the Jews that made them special was to get them saved. 01:24:45.000 --> 01:24:50.000 If you think about it, it's like what makes the Jews special? 01:24:50.000 --> 01:24:54.000 Because the Bible says in Romans chapter number three that, you know, 01:24:54.000 --> 01:24:57.000 what profit is there in circumcision? 01:24:57.000 --> 01:25:00.000 Much every way, chiefly. 01:25:00.000 --> 01:25:03.000 But if you think about it, what made a Jew special? 01:25:03.000 --> 01:25:05.000 Well, he got to live in the promised land. 01:25:05.000 --> 01:25:07.000 What's special about living in the promised land? 01:25:07.000 --> 01:25:10.000 That's where God is, that's where the temple of God is, that's where the word of God is. 01:25:10.000 --> 01:25:12.000 It's proximity to God. 01:25:12.000 --> 01:25:13.000 That's a special privilege. 01:25:13.000 --> 01:25:15.000 What's another reason that the Jews are special? 01:25:15.000 --> 01:25:17.000 The prophets of God were sent to them. 01:25:17.000 --> 01:25:19.000 The oracles of God were committed unto them. 01:25:19.000 --> 01:25:24.000 Jesus Christ went first and only to the lost sheep of Israel. 01:25:24.000 --> 01:25:26.000 So that's a privilege, isn't it? 01:25:26.000 --> 01:25:34.000 To be the first to hear, to have the prophets dedicated to you, to have Jesus visiting you physically. 01:25:34.000 --> 01:25:35.000 That's a privilege. 01:25:35.000 --> 01:25:37.000 And, you know, that's why Joseph Smith thought he was special. 01:25:37.000 --> 01:25:39.000 But, you know, he didn't visit him. 01:25:39.000 --> 01:25:44.000 He didn't visit the Native Americans and the Moronites or whatever. 01:25:44.000 --> 01:25:47.000 Or Moronites, whatever you want to call them. 01:25:47.000 --> 01:25:51.000 Morons is short for that, okay? 01:25:51.000 --> 01:26:00.000 Look, wouldn't it be kind of like, you're like, man, I lived in 30 AD, but Jesus already came and went. 01:26:00.000 --> 01:26:06.000 You'd be kind of like, oh, man, I wish I had just gone to Jerusalem to get to actually see Jesus, to get to hang out with Jesus. 01:26:06.000 --> 01:26:10.000 But, you know, there's still many people that didn't see and still yet believed. 01:26:10.000 --> 01:26:12.000 Thomas saw and didn't believe. 01:26:12.000 --> 01:26:16.000 And he's like, blessed are those that are not going to see and yet believe. 01:26:16.000 --> 01:26:25.000 So, number one, the Jews were special in a sense that, hey, they get to have close proximity to God from their physical location. 01:26:25.000 --> 01:26:26.000 The prophets are dedicated. 01:26:26.000 --> 01:26:29.000 And third, the Gospels preach to the Jew first. 01:26:29.000 --> 01:26:31.000 I mean, they have Jesus coming to them. 01:26:31.000 --> 01:26:33.000 They have the apostles dedicated to them for the first 40 days. 01:26:33.000 --> 01:26:40.000 And then even the apostle Paul, whether it was right or wrong, banged his head against the wall going to the synagogues first everywhere he went. 01:26:40.000 --> 01:26:43.000 So that made them unique in a sense. 01:26:43.000 --> 01:26:46.000 But, you know, it did not make them unique. A giant nose. 01:26:46.000 --> 01:26:48.000 They're physical descendants. 01:26:48.000 --> 01:26:51.000 They're whatever. None of that matters. 01:26:51.000 --> 01:26:55.000 Now, again, what was the context before verse 29? 01:26:55.000 --> 01:26:57.000 As concerning the Gospel, they are enemies for your sakes. 01:26:57.000 --> 01:26:59.000 That's for sure. 01:26:59.000 --> 01:27:03.000 The Jews are the ones doing the censorship and attacking and blaspheming. 01:27:03.000 --> 01:27:08.000 But as touching the election, they are beloved for, notice this, the father's sakes. 01:27:08.000 --> 01:27:12.000 Because they are the descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, 01:27:12.000 --> 01:27:21.000 then God's allowing them to what? Live in close proximity to have the prophets dedicated to them, to have the Gospel given to them first. 01:27:21.000 --> 01:27:26.000 In the same way that you growing up in America, I mean, not all of you, we have a pretty diverse group. 01:27:26.000 --> 01:27:33.000 But for those of us that have grown up in America in a Christian home, wasn't that a privilege? 01:27:33.000 --> 01:27:38.000 And much every way chiefly, especially if your parents were saved. 01:27:38.000 --> 01:27:43.000 That's that's a privilege as opposed to being grown up in a Hindu home. 01:27:43.000 --> 01:27:47.000 Grown up in a Muslim Islamic home. 01:27:47.000 --> 01:27:49.000 I mean, that's way better. 01:27:49.000 --> 01:27:58.000 That is a privilege in the same way that having grown up in a in a home of the Jews or the Hebrews at that time would have been better than the heathen, 01:27:58.000 --> 01:28:06.000 than being in a Greek home, then worshiping every God, going and worshiping rocks and even the unknown God. 01:28:06.000 --> 01:28:09.000 That wasn't a privilege. 01:28:09.000 --> 01:28:13.000 But is this say, oh, in verse 29, Bibi Netanyahu is special. 01:28:13.000 --> 01:28:17.000 Bless him no matter what, because, quote, the gifts and calling of God with our pit. 01:28:17.000 --> 01:28:19.000 No, false. 01:28:19.000 --> 01:28:24.000 And of course, now in today's world, after 70 AD, these peoples don't exist. 01:28:24.000 --> 01:28:27.000 There is no nation for them to be close to. 01:28:27.000 --> 01:28:32.000 There is no prophets because Jesus was the last one sent under them, according to Hebrews chapter number one. 01:28:32.000 --> 01:28:35.000 And number three, the gospel has gone into all the world. 01:28:35.000 --> 01:28:37.000 So there's no priority from who's the first or last. 01:28:37.000 --> 01:28:39.000 And look, all of those things have been shifted to the church. 01:28:39.000 --> 01:28:42.000 Now, church gives you the proximity. 01:28:42.000 --> 01:28:47.000 Church is where you get the preachers and churches where you get the gospel first. 01:28:47.000 --> 01:28:49.000 So again, replacement theology all over again. 01:28:49.000 --> 01:28:53.000 I probably need to preach that entire sermon in more elaborate terms. 01:28:53.000 --> 01:28:56.000 But there's Romans 11, verse 29 for you. 01:28:56.000 --> 01:28:59.000 Oh, but God's not done with Israel. 01:28:59.000 --> 01:29:02.000 OK, I agree. 01:29:02.000 --> 01:29:05.000 God's not done with anybody, folks. 01:29:05.000 --> 01:29:11.000 I mean, God wasn't done with Pharaoh after he slaughtered the firstborn of Egypt. 01:29:11.000 --> 01:29:16.000 Because he still used them to go and chase after the children of Israel. 01:29:16.000 --> 01:29:19.000 And then God still wasn't done with Pharaoh. 01:29:19.000 --> 01:29:24.000 Because he let Pharaoh chase after the children of Israel into the Red Sea. 01:29:24.000 --> 01:29:26.000 And then God still wasn't done with Pharaoh. 01:29:26.000 --> 01:29:31.000 Because then he allowed the sea to close up on Pharaoh and destroy all of his armies. 01:29:31.000 --> 01:29:32.000 And let me tell you something. 01:29:32.000 --> 01:29:35.000 God was still not done with Pharaoh. 01:29:35.000 --> 01:29:38.000 Because then he sent him to hell. 01:29:38.000 --> 01:29:39.000 And let me tell you something. 01:29:39.000 --> 01:29:42.000 God's still not done with Pharaoh. 01:29:42.000 --> 01:29:45.000 Because Pharaoh's going to go to the great white throne judgment. 01:29:45.000 --> 01:29:48.000 And he's going to be judged for everything he's ever done. 01:29:48.000 --> 01:29:49.000 And his knee's going to bow. 01:29:49.000 --> 01:29:54.000 And he's going to confess that Jesus Christ is Lord to the glory of God the Father. 01:29:54.000 --> 01:29:56.000 Oh, God's not done with Israel. 01:29:56.000 --> 01:29:59.000 Okay. 01:29:59.000 --> 01:30:00.000 Yeah. 01:30:00.000 --> 01:30:01.000 He's not done with anybody. 01:30:01.000 --> 01:30:04.000 Do you know the Bible says that every idle word that men shall speak, 01:30:04.000 --> 01:30:07.000 they shall give an account thereof in the day of judgment? 01:30:07.000 --> 01:30:11.000 God's not done with everybody. 01:30:11.000 --> 01:30:14.000 Look, it's so stupid to make these just, these rants like, 01:30:14.000 --> 01:30:15.000 God, God, God, whatever. 01:30:15.000 --> 01:30:18.000 What does that even mean? 01:30:18.000 --> 01:30:25.000 And look, I got an argument with somebody on Twitter or X today about this. 01:30:25.000 --> 01:30:26.000 And I said this. 01:30:26.000 --> 01:30:33.000 I said, how can the group of people who killed Jesus and hates Jesus be God's chosen people? 01:30:33.000 --> 01:30:35.000 And this is the response I got. 01:30:35.000 --> 01:30:39.000 Because God doesn't break promises. 01:30:39.000 --> 01:30:45.000 I said, what promise is broken by saying unbelievers are not God's elect? 01:30:45.000 --> 01:30:50.000 And then he just says, well, they are and will always be his chosen people 01:30:50.000 --> 01:30:54.000 because he uses them as key people to drive his plan forward. 01:30:54.000 --> 01:31:01.000 For their trouble, they get their kingdom promised to them at the second advent. 01:31:01.000 --> 01:31:03.000 Their trouble. 01:31:03.000 --> 01:31:05.000 They are the trouble. 01:31:05.000 --> 01:31:07.000 What do you mean for their trouble? 01:31:07.000 --> 01:31:11.000 They're the ones pissing everybody off. 01:31:11.000 --> 01:31:16.000 Like, it's just like, you know, again, whatever you believe about the Holocaust, OK, 01:31:16.000 --> 01:31:25.000 am I really supposed to believe that all the Germans and Hitler hated Jews for no reason? 01:31:25.000 --> 01:31:30.000 They were just like, I just hate Jews, you know. 01:31:30.000 --> 01:31:32.000 Someone's going to clip that. 01:31:32.000 --> 01:31:40.000 It's just like, look, they hated the money lenders that were exacting usury on them. 01:31:40.000 --> 01:31:42.000 They could have been purple. 01:31:42.000 --> 01:31:46.000 They could have had four eyes and been purple and had black hair. 01:31:46.000 --> 01:31:49.000 And they would have still hated them because they hated the usury. 01:31:49.000 --> 01:31:56.000 They hated all the debauchery and the filth and their transgender books that they were selling to everybody. 01:31:56.000 --> 01:31:59.000 They hated their coin clipping. 01:31:59.000 --> 01:32:02.000 They hated their criminality. 01:32:02.000 --> 01:32:04.000 Oh, for the quote troubles the Jews. 01:32:04.000 --> 01:32:09.000 They hated the fact that they slaughtered little children like Simon of Trent. 01:32:09.000 --> 01:32:12.000 And they were drinking children's blood. 01:32:12.000 --> 01:32:16.000 Oh, man, who wouldn't hate that? 01:32:16.000 --> 01:32:18.000 They hated the homosexuality. 01:32:18.000 --> 01:32:20.000 They hated the incest. 01:32:20.000 --> 01:32:21.000 They hated the rape. 01:32:21.000 --> 01:32:23.000 They hated the theft. 01:32:23.000 --> 01:32:25.000 It wasn't about just me. 01:32:25.000 --> 01:32:27.000 I just hate Jews. 01:32:27.000 --> 01:32:30.000 Look, they hated the wickedness of the Jews. 01:32:30.000 --> 01:32:32.000 What kind of a stupid comment here? 01:32:32.000 --> 01:32:33.000 Oh, for all their troubles. 01:32:33.000 --> 01:32:38.000 Look, they brought the trouble upon themselves by rejecting Jesus and believing the Talmud 01:32:38.000 --> 01:32:41.000 and being blasphemous, wicked, evil, reprobates. 01:32:41.000 --> 01:32:44.000 That's why the Bible says they're contrary to all men. 01:32:44.000 --> 01:32:50.000 It's not just arbitrarily we just hate good people or something. 01:32:50.000 --> 01:32:52.000 I said this was my comment. 01:32:52.000 --> 01:32:54.000 Sorry, I went on a rant there. 01:32:54.000 --> 01:32:56.000 I said this is a wild and scriptural belief. 01:32:56.000 --> 01:32:59.000 I said only those who believe in Jesus will inherit the promises. 01:32:59.000 --> 01:33:01.000 But again, I've met these people. 01:33:01.000 --> 01:33:03.000 This is what the Zionists today say. 01:33:03.000 --> 01:33:07.000 They say, no, no, I just think as soon as Jesus just shows up in the clouds, they're all going to believe. 01:33:08.000 --> 01:33:10.000 Just bam. 01:33:10.000 --> 01:33:13.000 Which is based on what verse? 01:33:13.000 --> 01:33:15.000 He said, Zachariah 12. 01:33:15.000 --> 01:33:18.000 You can go there if you want Zachariah chapter 12. 01:33:18.000 --> 01:33:24.000 Says, yeah, many of them are going to repent in mass during the tribulation. 01:33:24.000 --> 01:33:29.000 And that's when they're going to receive their promise after the smoke clears. 01:33:29.000 --> 01:33:34.000 So I guess after all the locusts from hell, they're going to they're going to repent. 01:33:34.000 --> 01:33:44.000 Didn't the Bible say in the book of Revelation that even after all those plagues that men didn't repent of their their idolatry and their fornication and any of their their sins. 01:33:44.000 --> 01:33:46.000 I mean, that's what the text literally says. 01:33:46.000 --> 01:33:50.000 No, but Zachariah Zachariah 10. 01:33:50.000 --> 01:33:52.000 So this is what he says. 01:33:52.000 --> 01:33:58.000 They shall look upon me whom they have pierced and they shall mourn for him as one mourneth for his only son. 01:33:58.000 --> 01:34:02.000 Proof Bibi Netanyahu is getting saved. 01:34:03.000 --> 01:34:06.000 This is their best proof text. 01:34:06.000 --> 01:34:12.000 Look, obviously, this is a proclamation of when they actually looked at Jesus on the cross. 01:34:12.000 --> 01:34:15.000 And then if you want to have an end times fulfillment. 01:34:15.000 --> 01:34:16.000 Yeah. 01:34:16.000 --> 01:34:19.000 Whenever they see him coming in the clouds in Revelation chapter six, you know what they say? 01:34:19.000 --> 01:34:23.000 They say they ask for the rocks to fall on them and hide them. 01:34:23.000 --> 01:34:25.000 They don't say, oh, I was wrong. 01:34:25.000 --> 01:34:28.000 Let's believe in Jesus now. 01:34:29.000 --> 01:34:33.000 Just like Jews, I said, well, Judas repented and still died and went to hell. 01:34:33.000 --> 01:34:36.000 And he said, there's no verse that says Jesus repented. 01:34:36.000 --> 01:34:40.000 And then, of course, I just gave him the verse where Jews repent. 01:34:40.000 --> 01:34:47.000 He's like, well, Judas changed his mind about betraying Jesus, but he didn't trust in him. 01:34:47.000 --> 01:34:51.000 And I'm like, right. 01:34:51.000 --> 01:34:57.000 Just like all the Jews are going to do at the end times. 01:34:57.000 --> 01:35:01.000 You're like full circle with these people, you know, you're like, all right. 01:35:01.000 --> 01:35:02.000 Sometimes you just can't fix stupid. 01:35:02.000 --> 01:35:03.000 I'll just tell you what. 01:35:03.000 --> 01:35:05.000 All right. 01:35:05.000 --> 01:35:09.000 I'm going to make my last point, but I'm not necessarily go to all the verses. 01:35:09.000 --> 01:35:10.000 Let's go to a couple. 01:35:10.000 --> 01:35:15.000 Let's go to second John chapter number one point one about God's promise to Abraham. 01:35:15.000 --> 01:35:16.000 What is point one? 01:35:16.000 --> 01:35:17.000 It says about Jesus. 01:35:17.000 --> 01:35:18.000 What's point two? 01:35:18.000 --> 01:35:19.000 It's to all who believe. 01:35:19.000 --> 01:35:20.000 Here's point three. 01:35:20.000 --> 01:35:24.000 The promise curses those who curse Jesus. 01:35:24.000 --> 01:35:27.000 You know, they always like to focus on the blessing side. 01:35:27.000 --> 01:35:31.000 What about that cursing side again? 01:35:31.000 --> 01:35:35.000 It's saying if we curse somebody, we're going to be cursed. 01:35:35.000 --> 01:35:44.000 Now, wouldn't you think that like if that was true, that the new I.F.B. would just be doomed? 01:35:44.000 --> 01:35:49.000 I mean, like, who is more anti-Israel than the new I.F.B.? 01:35:49.000 --> 01:35:53.000 And then yet, who's getting the most people saved again? 01:35:53.000 --> 01:35:55.000 Who's turning more people to righteousness? 01:35:55.000 --> 01:35:59.000 Who's bringing more people into Christianity and getting them saved and learning the Bible? 01:35:59.000 --> 01:36:01.000 Who cares what the Bible actually says? 01:36:01.000 --> 01:36:02.000 Right. 01:36:02.000 --> 01:36:10.000 What would be the benefit of being a Zionist who doesn't even care what the Bible says if they're right? 01:36:10.000 --> 01:36:14.000 You show me a Zionist and I'll show you someone that's not as zealous about soul winning, 01:36:14.000 --> 01:36:19.000 that doesn't care as much about Bible reading, that is afraid of many passages in the Bible, 01:36:19.000 --> 01:36:23.000 that will not explain the book of Revelation to you, that tells you you have to go to some Bible college 01:36:23.000 --> 01:36:29.000 or listen to Sam Gipp, which Sam Gipp says that Jesus isn't even his Messiah. 01:36:29.000 --> 01:36:31.000 That sounds like someone that's not saved. 01:36:31.000 --> 01:36:33.000 You know who also says Jesus isn't their Messiah? 01:36:33.000 --> 01:36:36.000 Jews. 01:36:36.000 --> 01:36:40.000 And then the guy's obsessed with Jews. 01:36:40.000 --> 01:36:41.000 It's just crazy. 01:36:41.000 --> 01:36:47.000 Look, if you bless the Jews today, if you bless the anti-Christ today, 01:36:47.000 --> 01:36:51.000 the Bible says that you're cursed. 01:36:51.000 --> 01:36:55.000 So we can't say, oh, well, you know what, Pastor Shelley, I hear what you're saying. 01:36:55.000 --> 01:36:57.000 There's a lot of verses and I don't know how to combat that. 01:36:57.000 --> 01:37:03.000 But I'm just going to bless the Jews anyways because I just kind of by default just want to bless everyone. 01:37:03.000 --> 01:37:05.000 Wrong. 01:37:05.000 --> 01:37:07.000 You cannot just bless everyone. 01:37:07.000 --> 01:37:11.000 What does the Bible say in 2 John chapter 1 verse 7? 01:37:11.000 --> 01:37:17.000 For many deceivers are injured in the world who confess not that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh. 01:37:17.000 --> 01:37:21.000 This is a deceiver and an anti-Christ. 01:37:21.000 --> 01:37:25.000 Look to yourselves that we lose not those things which we have wrought, but that we receive a full reward. 01:37:25.000 --> 01:37:29.000 Whosoever transgresses and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ hath not God. 01:37:29.000 --> 01:37:33.000 He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son. 01:37:33.000 --> 01:37:39.000 If there come any unto you and bring not this doctrine, receive him not in your house, 01:37:39.000 --> 01:37:44.000 neither bid him Godspeed, for he that bideth him Godspeed is partaker of his evil deeds. 01:37:44.000 --> 01:37:49.000 Look, someone preaching a false gospel, having a false religion is an anti-Christ. 01:37:49.000 --> 01:37:54.000 We are forbidden to bless that person. 01:37:54.000 --> 01:37:59.000 Now, again, I'm not saying that anybody that's ethnically Jewish, you have to act this way too, 01:37:59.000 --> 01:38:08.000 but someone that's bringing the religion of Judaism, someone like Ben Shapiro getting up and lying about the gospel and preaching a false gospel. 01:38:08.000 --> 01:38:13.000 If you bless Ben Shapiro, you are a partaker of his evil deeds. 01:38:13.000 --> 01:38:18.000 Oh, I just want to bless him anyways. I just want to bless Bibi and I want to bless... 01:38:18.000 --> 01:38:20.000 Look, you're bringing the wrath of God upon you. 01:38:20.000 --> 01:38:23.000 The Bible says, shouldest thou help the ungodly and love them that hate the Lord? 01:38:23.000 --> 01:38:27.000 Therefore is wrath upon thee from before the Lord. 01:38:27.000 --> 01:38:29.000 Go to John chapter 8. 01:38:29.000 --> 01:38:35.000 The Bible says in John, 1 John 2, little children is the last time. 01:38:35.000 --> 01:38:40.000 And as you've heard that anti-Christ shall come, even now are there many anti-Christ. 01:38:40.000 --> 01:38:43.000 Who are these anti-Christ? 01:38:43.000 --> 01:38:47.000 I mean, the Bible says they exist. Who are they? 01:38:47.000 --> 01:38:50.000 Who is a liar but he that denyeth that Jesus is the Christ? 01:38:50.000 --> 01:38:54.000 He is anti-Christ that denyeth the Father and the Son. 01:38:54.000 --> 01:38:57.000 Oh, well the Jews have the Father. No. 01:38:57.000 --> 01:39:01.000 If you deny Jesus, you deny the Father, you're not saved. 01:39:01.000 --> 01:39:04.000 You are an anti-Christ, is what the Bible says. 01:39:04.000 --> 01:39:06.000 The Jews are anti-Christ today. 01:39:06.000 --> 01:39:10.000 That's why the Bible calls them the synagogue of Satan twice in the book of Revelation. 01:39:10.000 --> 01:39:14.000 And notice it was written to Asian churches, not to Jews. 01:39:14.000 --> 01:39:16.000 Mah Jews. 01:39:16.000 --> 01:39:19.000 It was written to Gentiles. 01:39:19.000 --> 01:39:25.000 John chapter number 8 tells us that people can be the physical descendants of Abraham 01:39:25.000 --> 01:39:29.000 and yet Jesus has no respect for them. 01:39:29.000 --> 01:39:32.000 He does not treat them special. He does not bless them. 01:39:32.000 --> 01:39:37.000 John chapter 8 verse 37, I know that you're Abraham's seed. 01:39:37.000 --> 01:39:40.000 He's saying you guys are physical descendants of Abraham. 01:39:40.000 --> 01:39:43.000 But you seek to kill me because my word hath no place in you. 01:39:43.000 --> 01:39:46.000 Now are these people blessing Jesus? 01:39:46.000 --> 01:39:49.000 They're cursing Jesus. 01:39:49.000 --> 01:39:51.000 I'm not going to read the whole passage. 01:39:51.000 --> 01:39:54.000 Verse 44, year of your father the devil. 01:39:54.000 --> 01:39:59.000 Do you think Jesus just blessed the Jews? 01:39:59.000 --> 01:40:01.000 Go to Matthew 23 and we'll finish. 01:40:01.000 --> 01:40:04.000 Look, the Jews are of the devil. 01:40:04.000 --> 01:40:06.000 The religions of the devil. 01:40:06.000 --> 01:40:08.000 It's the synagogue of Satan. 01:40:08.000 --> 01:40:11.000 It's the most anti-Christ religion that exists. 01:40:11.000 --> 01:40:15.000 Now again somebody will be like, oh so that means you like Iran? 01:40:15.000 --> 01:40:16.000 No. 01:40:16.000 --> 01:40:17.000 Do you like Muslims? 01:40:17.000 --> 01:40:19.000 No. 01:40:19.000 --> 01:40:21.000 Now again, I want to give everybody the gospel. 01:40:21.000 --> 01:40:23.000 Look, if I ran into a Muslim today, you know what I do? 01:40:23.000 --> 01:40:25.000 I try to give them the gospel. 01:40:25.000 --> 01:40:27.000 If I ran into a Jew today, I try to give them the gospel. 01:40:27.000 --> 01:40:32.000 And if either of them tried to convert me to their religion, I would not bless them. 01:40:32.000 --> 01:40:35.000 Whatsoever. 01:40:35.000 --> 01:40:39.000 I would not even say God bless you or have a good day. 01:40:39.000 --> 01:40:45.000 Because that's being a partaker of their evil deeds by bidding them Godspeed. 01:40:45.000 --> 01:40:49.000 I won't even do that to a Christian that has the wrong gospel. 01:40:49.000 --> 01:40:53.000 We should stand against those people. 01:40:53.000 --> 01:40:59.000 But I'm not going to sit here and claim like, oh you know what, let's bomb Muslims for Jews. 01:40:59.000 --> 01:41:01.000 They're both bad. 01:41:01.000 --> 01:41:03.000 One's a little worse. 01:41:03.000 --> 01:41:05.000 One's a little grosser. 01:41:05.000 --> 01:41:07.000 You know? 01:41:07.000 --> 01:41:09.000 They're both just repulsive. 01:41:09.000 --> 01:41:15.000 But look, when the king Jehoshaphat went to help the king of Israel, he was fighting the Syrians. 01:41:15.000 --> 01:41:17.000 The Syrians weren't good. 01:41:17.000 --> 01:41:19.000 Fighting the Syrians is not even a bad thing. 01:41:19.000 --> 01:41:21.000 God's constantly wanting them to be good. 01:41:21.000 --> 01:41:23.000 Not even a bad thing. 01:41:23.000 --> 01:41:25.000 God's constantly wanting them to fight the Syrians. 01:41:25.000 --> 01:41:29.000 But he just didn't want them to help the king of Israel because he's ungodly. 01:41:29.000 --> 01:41:37.000 Is it any coincidence that the Epstein files get all this attention and then we just randomly bomb Iran? 01:41:37.000 --> 01:41:44.000 Are we really invoking the blessing of God or are we covering up the pedophiles in our government? 01:41:44.000 --> 01:41:47.000 That seems like a more likely narrative. 01:41:47.000 --> 01:41:50.000 I'm not even going to say there's one reason we bombed Iran. 01:41:50.000 --> 01:41:55.000 There could be six million. 01:41:55.000 --> 01:41:57.000 But I will say this. 01:41:57.000 --> 01:42:01.000 It's definitely not because of what the Bible is teaching. 01:42:01.000 --> 01:42:04.000 And Christians that are sitting here like, let's just bomb them! 01:42:04.000 --> 01:42:06.000 Yeah, bless that Jew! 01:42:06.000 --> 01:42:10.000 You know what? They're just invoking God's wrath upon them for being an idiot. 01:42:10.000 --> 01:42:16.000 If you think we should just bless Jews because Jews, you're an idiot and you're not believing the Bible whatsoever. 01:42:16.000 --> 01:42:20.000 Oh, the promise given to Abraham was given to Jesus, to those who believe. 01:42:20.000 --> 01:42:25.000 And if you know what? You curse Jesus, you also get cursed. 01:42:25.000 --> 01:42:30.000 Oh, well I just think it's not in good taste, Pastor Shelley. 01:42:30.000 --> 01:42:36.000 For you to blame the Jews that killed Jesus, you know, blame all that on the current Jews. 01:42:36.000 --> 01:42:38.000 It's not their fault. 01:42:38.000 --> 01:42:40.000 Okay, well let's see what Jesus asks about people. 01:42:40.000 --> 01:42:41.000 Look at verse 34. 01:42:41.000 --> 01:42:46.000 Wherefore, behold, I send you prophets and wise men and scribes, and some of them ye shall kill and crucify, 01:42:46.000 --> 01:42:51.000 and some of them ye shall scourge in your synagogues and persecute them from city to city, 01:42:51.000 --> 01:42:56.000 that upon you may come all the righteous bloodshed from the earth, 01:42:56.000 --> 01:43:00.000 from the blood of righteous Abel, and the blood of Zechariah, son of Barakaius, 01:43:00.000 --> 01:43:05.000 whom ye slew between the temple and the altar. 01:43:05.000 --> 01:43:14.000 Jesus is saying, hey, I'm blaming you for the death of every single righteous person that's ever existed. 01:43:14.000 --> 01:43:23.000 Oh, how dare you blame current Antichrist for what they did in 30 AD, in April 6. 01:43:23.000 --> 01:43:26.000 Oh, how dare you do that. 01:43:26.000 --> 01:43:28.000 Well, you know what? Jesus did it. 01:43:28.000 --> 01:43:30.000 And I'm not better than Jesus. 01:43:30.000 --> 01:43:33.000 And you know what? You curse Jesus, you're cursed. 01:43:33.000 --> 01:43:40.000 And anybody that has the same ideology of this Antichrist religion, I believe all the blood is upon them. 01:43:40.000 --> 01:43:46.000 You know, maybe it's because they said, his blood be on us and on our children. 01:43:46.000 --> 01:43:51.000 You sounded weird. Well, Jews sound weird, you know. 01:43:51.000 --> 01:43:58.000 Look, the Bible says this, nothing in secret, there's nothing in secret that shall not be made manifest, 01:43:58.000 --> 01:44:03.000 neither anything hid that shall not be known and come abroad. 01:44:03.000 --> 01:44:06.000 You can sit here and try to cover up those Epstein files. 01:44:06.000 --> 01:44:09.000 You know what? God's not done with the Epstein files. 01:44:09.000 --> 01:44:15.000 God's not done with Israel. God's not done with Jeffrey Epstein. 01:44:15.000 --> 01:44:20.000 He may have killed himself, but God's still not done with him. 01:44:20.000 --> 01:44:24.000 God's not done with Hillary Clinton. He's not done with Bill Clinton. 01:44:24.000 --> 01:44:26.000 He's not done with any of the Rothschilds. 01:44:26.000 --> 01:44:28.000 He's not done with any of these people. 01:44:28.000 --> 01:44:34.000 And you know what? Even after the Great White Throne judgment, he's still not done with them 01:44:34.000 --> 01:44:37.000 because they're going to have no rest day or night. 01:44:37.000 --> 01:44:41.000 The smoke of their torment is going to send up forever and ever. 01:44:41.000 --> 01:44:47.000 And here's the thing, if you love Jews, you would realize God's never going to be done with them. 01:44:47.000 --> 01:44:50.000 They're either going to get saved and be with him in heaven for eternity, 01:44:50.000 --> 01:44:54.000 or they're going to not get saved because of your stupid lies of Zionism, 01:44:54.000 --> 01:44:56.000 and they're going to burn in hell for all eternity. 01:44:56.000 --> 01:44:59.000 And if you actually love Jews, you wouldn't lie to them about Zionism. 01:44:59.000 --> 01:45:01.000 You'd preach them the gospel. 01:45:01.000 --> 01:45:07.000 Why is it that Christians, they are so zealous for Zionism and not the gospel? 01:45:07.000 --> 01:45:10.000 You know, don't lie to the Jew and tell him he's special. 01:45:10.000 --> 01:45:15.000 Don't tell him, hey, you don't get it right now, but after the locusts from hell, then you'll get it. 01:45:15.000 --> 01:45:17.000 No, they still won't get it. 01:45:17.000 --> 01:45:23.000 If they won't believe now, if they won't believe Moses now, they're not going to believe him later. 01:45:23.000 --> 01:45:25.000 Now is the accepted time. 01:45:25.000 --> 01:45:26.000 And you know what? 01:45:26.000 --> 01:45:31.000 We need to waken our friends and family members and everybody on this issue and tell them, 01:45:31.000 --> 01:45:35.000 hey, Jews aren't special because of my Jews. 01:45:35.000 --> 01:45:39.000 You're special because you believe in Jesus or you're not special. 01:45:39.000 --> 01:45:41.000 It's all about Jesus. 01:45:41.000 --> 01:45:44.000 And don't get this negative attitude to hate Muslims. 01:45:44.000 --> 01:45:45.000 Let's get Muslims saved. 01:45:45.000 --> 01:45:47.000 Let's get everybody saved. 01:45:47.000 --> 01:45:57.000 You know, God's promise to Abraham was to all nations, to all families of the earth, to the heathen, 01:45:57.000 --> 01:46:07.000 to Muslims, to those in Iran, to Palestinians, to those in Jordan, to those in Syria. 01:46:07.000 --> 01:46:09.000 He loves those people. 01:46:10.000 --> 01:46:18.000 I hate how much Americans just want to demonize all those people in favor for Antichrist. 01:46:18.000 --> 01:46:19.000 Look, get the Jews saved. 01:46:19.000 --> 01:46:21.000 I'm for you. 01:46:21.000 --> 01:46:27.000 But don't sit here and demonize the other side and just like, let's just nuke them all. 01:46:27.000 --> 01:46:30.000 God will nuke them all eventually. 01:46:30.000 --> 01:46:33.000 It's called the lake of fire. 01:46:33.000 --> 01:46:36.000 You know, we need to have a heart for the gospel and getting people saved. 01:46:36.000 --> 01:46:37.000 You know what? 01:46:37.000 --> 01:46:41.000 Zionism is a racist ideology that is not accepted here. 01:46:41.000 --> 01:46:42.000 And we need to wake up. 01:46:42.000 --> 01:46:48.000 People are waking up, but we need to keep waking them up so that our government actually is afraid of what the people believe 01:46:48.000 --> 01:46:53.000 instead of just being like boomers and like bomb them. 01:46:53.000 --> 01:46:57.000 You know, I personally, I'll be done after this statement. 01:46:57.000 --> 01:46:59.000 This is a personal thought. 01:46:59.000 --> 01:47:05.000 I'm like, did they bomb Iran now because they lost so much support for Zionism that they're like, 01:47:05.000 --> 01:47:11.000 we're not going to get in the war now because if we don't now, we're not going to be able to do it in the future. 01:47:11.000 --> 01:47:18.000 Would God, if God's people just wake up and say all this is trash, we wouldn't have the justification to just bomb random places. 01:47:18.000 --> 01:47:19.000 Say this isn't important. 01:47:19.000 --> 01:47:27.000 It is important because America is just a terrorist to the world instead of preaching the gospel when we have the wrong belief. 01:47:27.000 --> 01:47:30.000 If we had the right belief, we'd give Iran the gospel. 01:47:30.000 --> 01:47:34.000 With the wrong belief, we just bomb them and give them feminism. 01:47:34.000 --> 01:47:38.000 No, God's promise to Abraham is to Jesus. 01:47:38.000 --> 01:47:39.000 It's to all who believe. 01:47:39.000 --> 01:47:44.000 And we better not curse Christians and Jesus because then God will bring a curse upon us. 01:47:44.000 --> 01:47:45.000 Let's go to prayer. 01:47:45.000 --> 01:47:47.000 Thank you, Father, so much for your promises. 01:47:47.000 --> 01:47:50.000 Thank you for what you've given to us through Jesus Christ. 01:47:50.000 --> 01:47:53.000 I pray that we would get a heart for the gospel. 01:47:53.000 --> 01:48:00.000 I pray that you would wake in this country, that you could bring revival in this country of people that care about the gospel of the truth, 01:48:00.000 --> 01:48:12.000 that you'd help people to wake up and to stop believing the lies of the media and stop believing the lies of dispensationalism and stop believing the lies of Zionists today and stop believing the lies of Jews and antichrists. 01:48:12.000 --> 01:48:14.000 But rather they believe your words. 01:48:14.000 --> 01:48:15.000 They believe the gospel. 01:48:15.000 --> 01:48:17.000 They believe Galatians. 01:48:17.000 --> 01:48:24.000 I pray that you would help fill people with your spirit so they could understand the Bible and the Holy Spirit could guide them into all truth. 01:48:24.000 --> 01:48:32.000 And I pray that you can help use our church to get many people saved, not only in the receptive places, but even these hard places in Jesus name we pray. 01:48:32.000 --> 01:48:36.000 Amen. 01:48:36.000 --> 01:48:37.000 All right. 01:48:37.000 --> 01:48:38.000 Our last song. 01:48:38.000 --> 01:48:43.000 Let's go to song number 179. 01:48:43.000 --> 01:48:50.000 Song number 179. 01:48:50.000 --> 01:48:54.000 Such love. 01:48:54.000 --> 01:48:58.000 Song number 179. 01:48:58.000 --> 01:49:03.000 Let's all sing that out together. 01:49:03.000 --> 01:49:13.000 That God should love a sinner such as I Should yearn to change my sorrow into bliss 01:49:13.000 --> 01:49:23.000 Or rest till he hath planned to bring me nigh How wonderful is love like this 01:49:23.000 --> 01:49:33.000 Such love, such wondrous love Such love, such wondrous love 01:49:33.000 --> 01:49:43.000 That God should love a sinner such as I How wonderful is love like this 01:49:43.000 --> 01:49:53.000 That Christ should join so freely in the sea Although it mayst his death on Calvary 01:49:53.000 --> 01:50:03.000 Did ever new things come from yon worthy And love our new friends only 01:50:03.000 --> 01:50:13.000 Such love, such wondrous love Such love, such wondrous love 01:50:13.000 --> 01:50:23.000 That God should love a sinner such as I How wonderful is love like this 01:50:23.000 --> 01:50:33.000 And for a willful out there such as I The Father, where the Savior bled and died 01:50:33.000 --> 01:50:43.000 Redemption for a worthless day to lie Who long in the right place we cried 01:50:43.000 --> 01:50:53.000 Such love, such wondrous love Such love, such wondrous love 01:50:53.000 --> 01:51:03.000 That God should love a sinner such as I How wonderful is love like this 01:51:03.000 --> 01:51:13.000 And now he takes me to his hardest hour He asked me not to fill a servant's place 01:51:13.000 --> 01:51:23.000 The far-off country, wandering, no more known By the glorious arms of grace 01:51:23.000 --> 01:51:33.000 Such love, such wondrous love Such love, such wondrous love 01:51:33.000 --> 01:51:43.000 That God should love a sinner such as I How wonderful is love like this 01:51:54.000 --> 01:52:01.000 We have a baptism this afternoon.
