So dispensationals will claim that we as New Testament Christians can only adhere to the Pauline epistles So let's say hey, we're Pauline Christians. You know, we're only supposed to adhere to the Pauline Epistles not Peter, you know, not John nobody else but Paul. Okay. These are like the hyper dispensationals now look at Colossians 4 verse 15 salute the brethren which are in Laodicea and Memphis and the church which is in his house so we see that there's a church located in Laodicea during this time and When this epistle is read among you the letter that's being written cause that it'd be read also in the church of the Laodiceans And look what it says and they likewise read the epistle from the from Laodicea So it says look make sure that you read this letter in Laodicea And by the way, make sure you read in your church what they got in Laodicea Which is the letter we see in Revelation chapter chapter 3 right about being lukewarm so on and so forth He said well, hold on a second if Colossa the church of Colossa was not struggling with the same things that Laodicea was Why is it that Paul's admonishing them to read that same letter? Well, because all scripture is given by inspiration of God and it's profitable for doctrine for reproof for correction instruction and righteousness You know what? It's called it's called preventative medicine Right you read the letter and look how many times have you read the Bible? Maybe you're not struggle with the things that you find there in but you recognize like wow You know Lord help me not to end up like that Help me not to end up in this sin. Help me not to be lukewarm I mean, I'm sure we've read about the church in Laodicea and said man help me not to be lukewarm And you may not be lukewarm Amen, so this goes to show you that the letters are not just subject to one people one church They're addressed to a specific church, but they were able to share these letters one with another Okay, that's why you have Peter talking about the epistles of Paul in second Peter chapter 3 and he called Paul's epistles Scripture he called it the Word of God Okay, so yes, they were addressed to a specific people and it was in a sense custom-fitted to that church But you know, it's applicable to all Christians Because of the fact that it's God's Word, right? Holy men of God spake as they're removed by the Holy Ghost the prophecy came down an old time by the will of man and The reality is that we could look 2,000 years later and look we're not wearing sandals We don't have the type of clothing or culture that they had back then but we could look at the Bible and say hey, man I could relate to that You know I can relate to Paul in Romans chapter 7 I could relate to these these events and the way these people feel these men are of like passions with me Even though it was 2,000 years ago because of the fact that the Bible is timeless. Okay, it doesn't lose Its application there so we
