I listen carefully when Dr. White expounds scripture. It is his gift indeed. Thank you LORD, for this ministry.
I miss this channel!
Wow..you are on a roll. Thank you so much for posting these.
What computer software is being used in these presentations? Does anyone know? Thanks.
If I had not taken communion at the church I go to now I would not have had the experience I did that helped me decide Christ
God caused you to decide Christ. It’s a gift. Cherish it
Great Vid!!
When James in the beginning says the spiritual rock is christ is he referring to the rock that poured out water for moses and the israelites to drink?
Yes. Paul says the rock was Christ when he points out that all the Israelites ate the same manna and drank the same water. Christ is the manna from Heaven (John 6) and the living water (John 4), both of which were foreshadowed in the Torah.
I should have, of course, added the following (that's what I get for trying to interact on YT while running out the door to go to work):
You'll remember that Moses was forbidden to enter the Promised Land because he smote the rock _twice_ instead of once, thus marring the type of Christ's once-for-all-time sacrifice.
@@carolberubee thats interesting, but remember that he was commanded to simply speak to the rock.
@@Zaloomination That occurrence was in Numbers, but the other time was recorded in Exodus. So, the first time, God commanded him to tap the rock once (which he did). The next time, he was to speak to it, but he tapped it instead (in his frustration with the people). Thus, he smote the rock twice.
15:03 Go to Exodus 1 first. You will see that by the time we get to Exodus 4, the Pharaoh's heart was definitely already hard toward God and the Israelites. By way of chronological events, Exodus strongly indicates that Pharaoh's heart was already hard by the time God said, "I will harden his heart."
As RC Sproul says: God hardens hearts by leaving them to their own devices. By removing the restraints and turning them over
@davidliu7967 True! I’ve also heard Mike Winger say something to the effect that God also hardens an already hard heart by telling them the truth or giving them a command. Like a mad child who doesn’t want to take out the trash… If Mom says, “Johnny, take out the trash,” that’s only going to make little Johnny more hardened.
How does anyone get libertarian free will from this text? 😂
1 Corinthians 10:13
New International Version
13 No temptation[a] has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted[b] beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted,[c] he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it.
read the chapter. written as a warning. nothing Libertarian.
The thought of God decreeing every sin prompts people to ask the very question..should i just give in to temptation and sin, since every sin is decreed. Someone asked John Piper that. That is a question that can only arise from a false thought of God decreeing every time we sin. If u think like that, you already have a darkened view of God's holiness to some degree. Its hard to be warned against something when your told God also decreees all those "somethings" warned about!
Yeah, it’s better to just have pointless and meaningless sin that God is not in control of at all. Wait…
This obsession on Gods decree is only held by opponents to calvinism and never by actual calvinists. Is God all powerful? Is God all knowing? If so then God has allowed sin to exist by virtue of not immediately destroying it as soon as it appeared (all humanity). God is Good and sin (Evil) is the opposite of everything that God is. When he said let there be light there was darkness too because its the opposite of light. The same with Good and Evil. God is in control of everything read jeremiah 18 read ephesians read exodus this is the truth. Blaspheming God because you dont like that he is in control is not wise
It is just amazing the length you go to bruise this text to fit your system. The context supports the central claim of 1 Corinthians 10:13 that says that the elect are able, in any situation where they are tempted to take the way of escape that God provides. They are able to take the way of escape or to sin… this is a clear example of humanity being able to choose from a range of options and it is explicitly taught in scripture… supported by the context where the apostle is admonishing the Corinthians to avoid the sins mentioned in the preceding verses.
Is your conscience not also bruised?
It’s not “humanity” have a choice to sin or not. It’s Gods making the trails and escape able for them to endure for his children.
The elect, not humanity.
Free will isnt about choosing its about desire.
yes it does, there's many times humans are told to *choose*
No it doesn't. The command to choose good in no way gives us the ability to chose good. He told Pharaoh to let His people go but then says that He rose up Pharaoh to not let His people go. He say thou shalt not kill but then in Acts He says that He ordained the Jews and Gentles to kill Jesus. Could they have chose otherwise? Of course not. Are they still held accountable? Yes. Is this fair?. Read Romans 9: 17-20. No where in scripture does it say we have free will. Quite the opposite actually.
@@dannymcmullan9375 why does Christ lament over people making the wrong choice?
@@bertrodgers2420 in what context? What specific passage are you referring too?
@@dannymcmullan9375 "“Jerusalem, Jerusalem, who kills the prophets and stones those who have been sent to her! How often I wanted to gather your children together, the way a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, and you were unwilling." Matt 23:37
Now unless you're going to play the classic Calvinist word lingustics, Jesus said they were unwilling, which unequivocally implies that they had the choice
@@bertrodgers2420 This is a very common verse that free will folks try to use to say that Jesus wanted to save the Jews but they chose of their free will to say no. But if you read the verse carefully and in the context of the passage, that is not at all what is being said. First off the context is about Jesus talking to the Jewish leaders. He tells them that not only are they not entering into the kingdom, but they try to stop others from entering as well. Next, notice that He does not say, " how often I wanted to gather you". But instead says, "your children". Then He says, " but you would not". Meaning, the Jewish leaders did not want the Lord to save the people that would believe. So this verse is not saying the Lord is lamenting because He wanted to save the Jews but they refused. He is talking to the unbelieving leaders and scolding them for trying to prevent his people from following him. He says, as your father's were, so are you. That is what the verse means in context.
If Jesus himself went to James and told him "Free Will exists", James would argue with him about it. The argument is a waste of time and was settled in the second century by the Apostolic fathers.
Thankfully jesus already talked about the will of man :). This is like saying, "if Jesus came to james and told him we actually were not saved by grace, James would argue with him about it."
There's already clear revelation on both of those topics. Jesus would be contradicting prior revelation.
@@sovereigngrace9723 What do you believe is Gods Will for man?
You have no idea what the true definition of free will is. Biblical free will exists; libertarian free will is fiction. The 2nd century apostolic fathers? There were only 12 apostles and the early church fathers didn’t hold to libertarian free will nor did the actual apostles
@@sovereigngrace9723exactly. Well said
@@apostasiaelegcho5612God’s will is to glorify himself by revealing himself to creation and choosing a group of people, called the elect, for his own. It’s all about God. Not your man made libertarian free will that has never existed. How could it? We are created by God and function according to the parameters he has set in that creation. We have Biblical free will, to freely choose according to our nature. Which God created and ordained
Its a shame James is so clueless on Eschatology and Lordship Salvation
Where do you see james refuting lordship salvation?
