@1:08 2 TIMOTHY 2:15-16 *Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.* *16But shun profane and vain babblings: for they will increase unto more ungodliness.* Why explain what the Greek word means? I am reading an ENGLISH BIBLE. Which Greek lexicon did you use, and which Greek text? Why pay Phoenix seminary thousands of dollars when I can do what Timothy did? 2 TIMOTHY 3:13 *But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.* 14But continue thou in the things which thou hast learned and hast been assured of, knowing of whom thou hast learned them; 15And that from a child thou hast known *the holy scriptures,* which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus. *16All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: 17That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works.* Strange that no seminary is mentioned; neither scribes, chief priests, councils or schools. It is also noteworthy that warnings about profane and vain babblings, and evil men and seducers are included with these passages.
NT Wright and his ilk have really no idea of the true meaning of the gospel, they used their intellect to discover God, they have no experience of the Holy Spirit, for if they know they wouldn't have strayed so they can make a couple of bucks. The devil will use men like this, not stupid men, but smart ones, to subvert the gospel to leave God's people confused and astray. Spiritual truths are spiritually discerned, praise God! They will have their reward!!!
UNITY OF YAHWEH VERSUS THE TRINITY Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is one LORD: 5 And thou shalt love the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might. Deuteronomy 6:4 Thus saith the LORD the King of Israel, and his redeemer the LORD of hosts; I am the first, and I am the last; and beside me there is no God. Isaiah 44:6 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. John 1:1 I am the LORD: that is my name: and my glory will I not give to another, neither my praise to graven images. Isaiah 42:8 And now, O Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee before the world was. John 17:5 1 Chronicles 17:13-16 He shall build an house for my name, and I will stablish the throne of his kingdom for ever. 14 I will be his father, and he shall be my son. If he commit iniquity, I will chasten him with the rod of men, and with the stripes of the children of men: 15 But my mercy shall not depart away from him, as I took it from Saul, whom I put away before thee. 16 And thine house and thy kingdom shall be established for ever before thee: thy throne shall be established for ever. GENTILES IN THE LAST DAYS O Lord, my strength and my fortress, My refuge in the day of affliction, The Gentiles shall come to You From the ends of the earth and say, "Surely our fathers have inherited lies, Worthlessness and unprofitable things." Jeremiah 16:19 "Thus says the Lord of hosts: 'In those days ten men from every language of the nations shall grasp the sleeve of a Jewish man, saying, "Let us go with you, for we have heard that God is with you." Zechariah 8:23 Ask yourself this question: “is it reasonable to use New Testament writings that clearly contradicts Hebrew Scripture and deduce that the New Testament is true?” For the most part, the writers of the New Test ament are UNKNOWN. There is no verifiable authorship; that is why the Church Fathers added “according to Matthew, according to Mark according to Luke and according to John.” You assume that no one could see God because the New Testament says so. It is WRONG. The Tanakh clearly contradicts that. In Genesis 18, Yahweh ate a meal with Abraham. In Exodus 33, Moses saw the backside of God but not his face. Jacob declared that he saw God face to face. “And Jacob called the name of the place Peniel: for I have seen God face to face, and my life is preserved.” Genesis 32:30. Furthermore Moses told Israel to bury their faeces so that when Yahweh walked through the camp at night, he would not see it. “12 Thou shalt have a place also without the camp, whither thou shalt go forth abroad: 13 And thou shalt have a paddle upon thy weapon; and it shall be, when thou wilt ease thyself abroad, thou shalt dig therewith, and shalt turn back and cover that which cometh from thee: 14 For the Lord thy God walketh in the midst of thy camp, to deliver thee, and to give up thine enemies before thee; therefore shall thy camp be holy: that he see no unclean [1] thing in thee, and turn away from thee.” Deuteronomy 23:12-14 Throughout the Tanakh, there is no concept of God being a spirit. That is a New Testament invention that occurred with Jesus with the Samaritan woman at the Sychar well. “God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.” John 4:24. Again, this contradicts the Tanakh. You are using New Testament writings that that contradict the Hebrew Scripture and claiming that these writings are scripture. Really? Why complain about the Book of Mormon or the Quran that contract the New Testament? How much clearer can Yahweh make that he is the only God? “I am the LORD, and there is none else, there is no God beside me: I girded thee, though thou hast not known me:” Isaiah 45:5 “8 Remember this, and shew yourselves men: bring it again to mind, O ye transgressors. 9 Remember the former things of old: for I am God, and there is none else; I am God, and there is none like me,” Isaiah 46:9-10 “6 Thus saith the Lord the King of Israel, and his redeemer the Lord of hosts; I am the first, and I am the last; and beside me there is no God.” Isaiah 44:6 Even in John, Jesus states that YAHWEH is the ONLY TRUE GOD.
Such a horrible conflation of New Testament teaching and Protestant dogmatics, please don’t agree with NT Wrights overstatements, but the critique of the NPP of imputation etc is completely warranted
Thank you for your amazing testimony. Your eloquence in describing such perilous scenarios is admirable and effective! Thank you again!
The simplicity of saving faith is what's so "difficult" about it. You either BELIEVE the gospel or you don't. You cannot believe in something you've never heard and do not understand. Belief is repentance. Metanoia (repentance) "simply" means to change your mind (from unbelief to belief). Salvation is a discovery, not a decision. The very first thing men want to do is make faith a work. One hears the gospel (maybe many times) and discovers they believe it. Saving faith is a gift from God. It's the only "proof" that you've been born from above. "Which were BORN, not of blood, nor of THE WILL of the flesh, nor of THE WILL of man, but of GOD." We are free! However, with freedom comes responsibility. Your Father will discipline you to the measure you abuse your freedom in this life. Not the next. You CANNOT be un-born! The absolute sovereignty of God is the most assuring doctrine of salvation there is. Not one's performance.
His opening statement is terrible, “if God knows I’m going to eat Cheerios tomorrow then how can I freely eat cheerios?” That is such a stupid question, the question the open theist poses is “Did God preordain that I am going to eat Cheerios tomorrow?” Much different question…..
“He doesn’t violate our will but somehow enables us to choose what we most want to do, but, that fits in with his plan…” That’s gotta be the least thought through gobble dee goop I’ve ever heard
If a person read the bible and denied 'the righteous' are God’s people (Ps 14.5-7; 94.14-15; 125.2-3; Lk 1.75-77; cf. Ps 106.3-5; Isa 26.7-11; 32.16-18; 56.1-3; 60.20-21), God’s nation (Ps 33.1,12; Isa 26.2; 58.1-2; cf. Je 31:23), God’s servants (Ps 34.21-22; Mal 3.17-18), or God’s saints (Ps 31.18,23; 37.27-31; 97.10-12; Rev 19.8) I would say something was not Wright with them. The connotative meaning of being righteous understood by the first century audience was being one of God's people, one of his children (1 Jn 3.10; Mt 13.43). How does counting Abraham 'righteous' by faith make him our 'father' unless there is some sort of kinship affiliation going on here with what it means to be righteous? (Rom 4.11).
The Problem with The 21st Century Understanding of Salvation (Soteriology) is that we have misunderstood The Gospel Jesus himself Preached! Mark 1 vs. 14 & 15 KJV clearly states The Gospel Jesus Preached. And we see clearly that In all of The Synoptic Gospels Jesus is Going about Proclaiming The Gospel/Good News (Euanggelion -Greek) That God's Kingdom has come upon This World and has been brought near to all humankind! So The Gospel That Messiah Jesus Preached is That God's Spiritual Kingdom has been brought into our World and All humans are being invited to become a part of it. And Jesus teaches us that The Right Response to This Gospel of The Kingdom is 1. Repentance (Changing The Way we think) and 2. Believing that God's Spiritual Kingdom has really been brought into our world by his Son Messiah Jesus. The Gospel Jesus Preached in Matt Mark Luke and John Was and is The Gospel of The Kingdom of God. And it is This same Gospel That Christ The King Commands us to preach in His Great Commision. Note Carefully That Jesus had a Gospel he was consitently Preaching before his death and resurrection And This is The Same Gospel that The Apostles Preached and all The disciples of Christ are commanded to Preach. We need to go back to reading The Scriptures in The Context of The 1st Century not in The light of a 21st Century Worldview. I love both Prof Grudem and Prof Wright (But Wright is more exegetically consistent on the matter) However in regards to the Matter of Justification in Romans What is being imputed as righteousness is that faith is being imputed as righteousness. Apostle Paul is saying that God is counting our faith in Christ as righteousness) Let us not confuse imputation with impartation or imputation with declaration. Kind Regards and Shalom

I loved taking both of the Church history classes at PS.
Hebrews 4:15 For we don’t have a high priest who can’t be touched with the feeling of our infirmities, but one who has been in all points tempted like we are, yet without sin.
So Jesus both knew everything and little (as a man.) This is having your cake (following scripture) and eating it too (man's theology). Keep in mind that Jesus emptied Himself. Philippians 2:6 who, existing in the form of God, didn’t consider equality with God a thing to be grasped, 7 but emptied himself, taking the form of a servant, being made in the likeness of men. Then we have this annoying verse: Hebrews 2:7 You made him a little lower than the angels. You crowned him with glory and honor. Then, the final insult: 2 Timothy 2:5 For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus, So, in order to die for mankind, He had to become a man. The Second part of the Godhead stripped away his Godly powers and brought only Himself to the human body. His person, Himself. And lived as a man. How did Jesus perform miracles? Know the hearts of men? John 3:34 For he whom God has sent speaks the words of God; for God gives the Spirit without measure. So we can see that Jesus received His supernatural knowledge and power from the Holy Spirit. Jesus was able at any time to take back His power as was apparent when Satan tempted Him (turn that stone into bread). But Jesus lived a life of humility and obedience and holiness.
Hallelujah :)
Interesting take on God's immutability. I like the idea that God is always God. Amen. I would differ in what God repenting is though. God does not repent as a man does. IE man repents when he made a mistake or sins. God repents in response to man's free will. Your saying God repenting is just Him performing a new act sounds good and all. But it flies in the face of the obvious meaning of the Scripture. Genesis 6:5 Yahweh saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of man’s heart was continually only evil. 6 Yahweh was sorry that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him in his heart. 7 Yahweh said, “I will destroy man whom I have created from the surface of the ground-man, along with animals, creeping things, and birds of the sky-for I am sorry that I have made them.”
Just the opposite. The musings of Plato et al are contrary to what the Bible teaches and forces you to approach scripture with a bias. For instance, Greek mysticism teaches that human souls live forever. This forces one to ignore the very simple and literal teachings of Jesus. IE Matthew 10:28 Don’t be afraid of those who kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul. Rather, fear him who is able to destroy both soul and body in Gehenna.
There is no post fall human nature. If there was, and Christ did not take it, then what's the use of His death?
One of the finest examples of eisegeses I have seen. You base your theology on what the Bible says, not interpret the Bible according to your theology.
So Yuan is another typicall case of: ''I was a huge drug dealer (convicted criminal) and in prison I've started to being extremely religious to convince Parole Board, myself and my family that I'm not one of those other criminals (eventho I'm no different) so I can restart my life with free gravitas and bonus points and finally get some love from my parents, and now I'm stuck into pretending that I am no longer gay to have a decent status and family relations and not to be seen as a failure'' His story shows only one thing, which is how hastily christian families renounce and banish their family members if they are not whatever parents tell them to be, and how extremely prone then this lonely banished kid is to criminal life and mistakes after feeling betrayed and anxious.
Your evaluaron of this testimony speaks much more of your life experience than it does his. Praying for your healing. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
@@ruthtirado2750 I'm neither homosexual, neither was I brutally abused like other millions of people by christian parents. Some others around me weren't so lucky tho. Moreover, this is a well studied psychological phenomena of new-born christians. A textbook example.
It's ok to be gay. Be proud and live your life
The Bible is what judges us in the end. The Word of God is the final say, whether you like it or not. Try living the Bible, and you will find yourself actually happy and truly fulfilled! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
@@ruthtirado2750 People kill themselves trying to "live the bible" and going to conversion therapy only to end up miserable. I hope you get judged by promoting these evil views

Thank-you Christopher...you liberated me from lots and lots of guilt about my kids!!!!
Why, what have you done to your kids ? I hope this doesn’t mean what I think it does. If you’ve put your kids through conversion therapy or anything of that ilk then you absolutely should feel extremely guilty for damaging your child’s life.
If you abused your kids and renounced them / banished them from home as those terrible abusive parents of Yuan, you should definitely feel guilt
SPURGEON AND WHITFEILD WERE THE BEST SND THEY DIDNT ATTEND .SPURGEON WAS GIVEN HONORARY DOCTORATES.
Amazing testimony, teaching and preaching of the gospel.
So with all the “miracles healings” in thousands of FILMED “healing” conferences, all over the world… not one single visible healing… that’s a coincidence? If you believe that I got some ocean front property to sell you in Arizona! Jesus & the Apostles did VISIBLE healings as well… not just “stomach pain”, “back pain”, mental illness, and invisible diseases, etc
Good stuff! This is what mainline Pentecostals have always done.
This guy is just trusting himself.
Excellent definition of New Testament prophecy: "telling something that God was spontaneously bring to mind to meet the need of the situation at the moment, but not something that should be recorded in the Bible for all God's people for all history." (1:23-2:55) And it should be noted that there are plenty example of this in the Bible. Saul was "among the prophets." What did he prophesy? What did the prophets he was with prophesy? Silas, in the N.T. was a prophet. What did he prophesy? Agabus was a N.T. prophet. What did he prophesy besides the two words we have mentioned in Acts? Certainly, he was a recognized prophet before, which gave him credibility. What did the daughters of Philip prophesy? What did the people in the first century church prophesy (while they were supposedly still working)? I could multiply examples, but it would be more redundant that I already have. The argument that N.T. prophecy must be considered on the same level as scripture is bogus.
Ya, can't see how "my" righteousness, which in God's sight is filthy rags, is going to save me. Isn't that the stumbling block that the Jews stumble over to this day? I stand in Christ's imputed righteousness, and thank God for it.
🤔 I KINDA GET WHAT YOU'RE TRYING TO SAY, BUT IT'S REALLY SIMPLE. YOU'RE LOOKING AT IT FROM A HUMAN PERSPECTIVE WHICH MAKES YOU BLIND TO THE TRUTH THEREFORE SEPERATING CHRIST & SPIRIT. THAT CAN NEVER HAPPEN. "HE" IS NOT 2 OR 3 HE IS 1.
A lot of great stuff here - other than the continued slander against Preston Sprinkle.
You're here just to slander Christopher?
incoherent nonsense.
Your mom's faith is an inspiration ❤
In a synagogue in the 1st century, one could only read the Hebrew scrolls or the Targum (a translation of the Hebrew Bible into Aramaic). Greek was forbidden. Recall that Antiochus Epiphanes desecrated the Solomon’s temple circa 170 BC. Thus, the need for Herod to build the 2nd temple. The Jews of the 1st century despised the Greeks, for that and other reasons. The only evidence for a BC Septuagint is the letter of Aristeas, which no one believers but everyone quotes. It is a fantastic tale (read fantasy). There is no reference to a Septuagint prior to 50 AD (+/-). If you trace all the reference to a BC Septuagint, you will find that each and every on them references the Letter of Aristeas in one form or another. So, the only witness to a BC Septuagint is the Letter of Aristeas (LOA) If one believes the LOA, one has to believe also that the 10 northern tribes of Israel were not dispersed to four winds after 721 BC. From this diaspora they never returned. Rather you have to believe that they were still in Israel in 285 BC, since the LOA claims that 12 scribes from each of the 12 tribes of Israel were assembled in Egypt. Incidentally, a land to which the Jews were forbidden ever to return to. Deuteronomy 28:68. Only the Levites were to handle the scriptures (with the exception of the King who had to make a copy for himself). So, one has to add to that belief that 72 scribes (not Levites) defiled themselves among the Greeks and defied the scriptures and God’s wishes in order to handle the scriptures as well as going to a land to which they were forbidden ever to return. More so, add to that belief, that 72 scribes, each without a copy of the Hebrew scriptures, translated them from memory into Greek in 72 days and every single word was identical all the while being locked up in 72 chambers on the isle of Pharos without any collaboration between them. And by the way, why is it called LXX "The 70"? And may I say ”Incidentally” again? Incidentally, the Pharos light house was not built until 280 BC, 3 years after the blessed event. A minor point. To sum up, we are to believe that God inspired the work of 72 (not 70) disobedient, non-Levitical scribes who rendered 72 identical copies of the Hebrew scriptures from memory into Greek. Really? Incidentally, the LOA section 176 also says that the whole scroll was written in gold. Really? Where is it? You’d think that someone would have a vested interest in preserving such a priceless document. Where is it? It doesn’t exist! Finally, If you were to get a copy of the Septuagint, you would find that it is nothing more than the Old Testament portions of the codex Alexandrinus, the codex Sinaiticus and the codex Vaticanus, along with the Apocrypha. If you believe that Jesus quoted from the Septuagint, you have to also believe that Jesus endorsed the Apocrypha. Including purgatory! Really?
The church has been wrong since getting into bed with Rome, not just Augustine. The New Testament is an apocalypse, not a “legal” document.
And does it include whether He chooses me or passes menu for damnation.
I am doing a project trying to name all the gods of history and their properties and attributes & requirements..the list is very long and it is taking much longer than I initially thought...amen

There is a profound difference between God's Holy Spirit giving clear leading about something or God giving wisdom to handle a complicated matter and having God actually speak to someone and tell them what He wants them or the church to do. I trust no one who says God is speaking to them or through them. There does not exist anywhere a person whom God is speaking through prophetically. God as already given us His complete revelation of His truth through the Bible. There are MANY Christians who believe they hear God talking to them in their minds. This is dangerous and unscriptural and should be rejected. God isn't speaking new revelation through ANYONE.
I fully agree with what he said about justification and it was spot on. 2 Corinthians 5:21 "For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him." If you don't believe this then you need to get saved because you are on your way to eternal damnation. Romans 5:1 " Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ" Romans 4:3-5 " For what saith the scripture? Abraham believed God, and it was counted (imputed or reckoned) unto him for righteousness. 4 Now to him that worketh is the reward not reckoned (IMPUTED) of grace, but of debt. 5 But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted (IMPUTED, Recorded, Reckoned) for righteousness." N.T. Wright's statements are outrageously heretical. The man does not even know what the gospel is nor does he understand imputation apparently.
No that which is perfect has come already, and that is faith by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. Faith in the scriptures, not signs and wonders. Tongues and the miraculous gifts ceased, as Paul stated they would.
Wow! What a great teaching - a great resource for the church!
