Speaker 1: I'm your host, Josh Mondy. If you don't know me,
Speaker 1: I'm a Christian rapper, devoted husband, father, and Army veteran.
Speaker 1: And this is brought to you by Colt Conspiracy Podcast.
Speaker 1: I really appreciate you guys tuning in today. Thank you,
Speaker 1: and we're gonna be on Deuteronomy five today, which is
Speaker 1: amazing and awesome. So first, like I always do, I
Speaker 1: give shout outs and I'll shout out the people from

Speaker 1: catch it. So Callahan, thank you. I prayed for you
Speaker 1: that day. I Garza, thank you so much for the comment.

Speaker 1: I appreciate you commenting. Mitch, thank you so much, and
Speaker 1: then Flicking Boogers, thank you for commenting on this podcast
Speaker 1: and on my personal podcast, thank you so much. And
Speaker 1: then SF Beywolf, thank you so much. And Angela Kelly,
Speaker 1: thank you pod for commenting on this show and my
Speaker 1: other show, my Personal one. I appreciate you. I've been
Speaker 1: checking those comments as well, and I really appreciate you guys.
Speaker 1: And let me just let me shout out the other
Speaker 1: people from Wednesday service. So far we have three comments there,
Speaker 1: so if you guys hear this, go back and comment
Speaker 1: on that one for sure. If you liked it, Angela,
Speaker 1: thank you, and Flicking Bogers, thank you, and MDMP twenty
Speaker 1: two thank you. Like every episode, I well see all
Speaker 1: of you commenting, so I appreciate it. Like I said,
Speaker 1: it keeps the show on the air. It'll push the
Speaker 1: show up the algorithm so more people can hear it,
Speaker 1: and judging by last week Sunday service, since I have
Speaker 1: comments from people that I haven't really seen before, I'm
Speaker 1: hoping that this is getting to new people. This show
Speaker 1: so my personal show gets to a lot of people,
Speaker 1: but seems like it gets to a lot more people
Speaker 1: on Spotify and Apple than it does on YouTube, even
Speaker 1: though I have like five thousand or some subscribers. Like
Speaker 1: the show is shadow band, you know, because I go
Speaker 1: through the Bible and I go through conspiracy. So two
Speaker 1: things that we know that the people that rule this arena,
Speaker 1: you know, not saying that God doesn't rule everything. God
Speaker 1: is obviously or everything, but you know, people that rule
Speaker 1: the Spotify, YouTube and all the social media, and you know,
Speaker 1: the people that are running things, they definitely don't like
Speaker 1: those two things, especially those two things together, right, Christian
Speaker 1: and conspiracy. They don't like it. Believe me, because I've
Speaker 1: been swimming uphill without a paddle for a long time
Speaker 1: trying to get more subscribers and more people to listen
Speaker 1: and YouTube. It's a lot, it's a lot harder for
Speaker 1: some reason. It's like you have to have a big
Speaker 1: name for people to tune in on that one. But
Speaker 1: it's still a blessing. I think the Lord that we
Speaker 1: have fifty four hundred subscribers on there, that's a blessing,
Speaker 1: you know. And worked hard. It took me four years
Speaker 1: you know to get to this point. And took me
Speaker 1: six years you know basically since I've kind of first
Speaker 1: entered the scene as a Christian rapper and then four
Speaker 1: years as a podcaster. So what a blessing, you know,
Speaker 1: I thank God for every moment that I've had and
Speaker 1: all the sleepless nights and everything that I've done, is
Speaker 1: it's been well worth it. You know, a lot of
Speaker 1: people have been God has planted a lot of seeds
Speaker 1: with this show and my show, and a lot of
Speaker 1: people have came to the Lord through it. So I
Speaker 1: really really appreciate it. But I just love to be
Speaker 1: a vessel. That's all I am. No glory to me
Speaker 1: in any way, just all glory to God. And we
Speaker 1: are going to be talking today about Deuteronomy. Let me
Speaker 1: let me get to my notes because I I.
Speaker 2: Just want to make sure I'm at the right spot here.
Speaker 1: That's Deuteronomy six. Let's go to Deuteronomy five, and we
Speaker 1: will be reviewing the ten Commandments. I know we went
Speaker 1: over that on Exodus, but we're still going to be
Speaker 1: reviewing here because some people could be new to the
Speaker 1: channel and just are new to the show. So let's
Speaker 1: go ahead and share the screen for those that are
Speaker 1: watching in video and for everybody on my show that's
Speaker 1: going to be listening to this in the future. I
Speaker 1: love you guys too, and I appreciate all of you.
Speaker 1: Thank you so much. Let's go ahead and start this up.
Speaker 1: So this is going to be Deuteronomy five, and I'll
Speaker 1: go to my other notes as well.
Speaker 2: I think I might have two phones here soon.
Speaker 1: I have a work phone I could put notes on
Speaker 1: because I keep switching back and forth. So first of all,
Speaker 1: before we go over this, something that I learned as
Speaker 1: I was studying this is that Moses spent forty days
Speaker 1: on Mount Sinai, which I already knew. You know, I
Speaker 1: knew that part we read that together. But he actually
Speaker 1: went spent forty days on Mount Sinai twice. I probably
Speaker 1: when I was reading through. You know, it might be
Speaker 1: at the end of the show or something on this,
Speaker 1: but for some reason I missed it. I do remember
Speaker 1: him going up once, and I do know that the
Speaker 1: golden calf and he went back up, but I didn't
Speaker 1: know he went up for forty days. So it looks
Speaker 1: like he went up there twice. The first time was
Speaker 1: to receive the ten commitments, and the second time was
Speaker 1: after the Israelites had created a golden calf after they
Speaker 1: first set, after the first set of tablets were broken.
Speaker 1: So so, like I said, the first time Moses has
Speaker 1: sent him out signing to receive the ten Commandments the
Speaker 1: first set of stone tablets. Remember, he came down, saw
Speaker 1: them worshiping the Golden Calf, and then he threw those
Speaker 1: and broke them. And then while Moses was on the mountain,
Speaker 1: the Israelites, in pace for his return, began worshiping the
Speaker 1: Golden Calf, which we talked about Upawn has returned. Moses
Speaker 1: enraged in the idolatry and broke the first set of
Speaker 1: tablets in his fury. Then Moses returned to Mount Sinai
Speaker 1: for another forty days and forty nights. This signed to
Speaker 1: receive the new set of tablets containing the Ten Commandments.
Speaker 1: The second forty days represent a period of purification and
Speaker 1: renewed covenant between God and his people. According to some perspectives, Okay,
Speaker 1: so I just want to go over that real quick,
Speaker 1: and then and then we're going to go over the
Speaker 1: Ten Commandments. And just to tell you what the Ten
Speaker 1: Commandments are. The Ten Commandments are a set of moral
Speaker 1: guidelines given to Moses on Mount Sinai according to the Bible,
Speaker 1: and are considered foundational principles in both Christianity and Judaism.
Speaker 1: They outline basic rules of worship and behavior, focusing on
Speaker 1: one's relationship with God and with others. The commandments are
Speaker 1: often divided into two groups, those focusing on the relationship
Speaker 1: with God, which are one through four, and those focusing
Speaker 1: on the relationship with others five through ten. And we'll
Speaker 1: go through those really quick as we're going through, and
Speaker 1: I have notes on each one, so let's go ahead
Speaker 1: and start reading. Deuteronomy five, verse one. And Moses called
Speaker 1: all Israel and said to them, hero Israel, the statutes
Speaker 1: and judgments which I speak and you're hearing today, and
Speaker 1: that you may learn them and be careful to observe them.
Speaker 1: The Lord, our God, made a covenant with us in
Speaker 1: he Reb. The Lord did not make this covenant with
Speaker 1: our fathers, but with us those who are here today,
Speaker 1: all of us who are alive. The Lord talked to
Speaker 1: you face to face on the mountain from the midst
Speaker 1: of the fire. I stood between the Lord and you
Speaker 1: at that time to declare to you that the word
Speaker 1: of the Lord. For you were afraid because of the
Speaker 1: fire and did not go up the mountain. He said,
Speaker 1: hold on, let's go ahead and go there real quick.
Speaker 1: This is exactly what happened. Numbers twelve versus four through
Speaker 1: eight is another spot where God, the Lord is speaking
Speaker 1: to Aaron and marry him, saying I come to prophets
Speaker 1: and visions and in dreams, but with Moses, I speak
Speaker 1: to him face to face. In the New King, James
Speaker 1: are the King James, it says, mouth to mouth. Okay.
Speaker 1: Now we see this in Deuteronomy five as well, saying
Speaker 1: the Lord, our God, made a covenant with us. The
Speaker 1: Lord did not make us covenant with our fathers, but
Speaker 1: with us those who are here today, all of us
Speaker 1: who are alive. The Lord talk with you, speaking of
Speaker 1: Moses face to face on the mountain from the midst
Speaker 1: of the fire. So now we have that, and then
Speaker 1: we also have an Exodus that says that God speaks
Speaker 1: to Moses like a friend. So should we be so
Speaker 1: the words that Moses speaks, should we be kind of
Speaker 1: putting them on a higher pedestal than some of the
Speaker 1: people that you know, like some of the other people
Speaker 1: in the Bible. Well, I think that all scriptures inspire
Speaker 1: by God. Okay, So I don't think we should put
Speaker 1: it on a higher pedestal. I think that all of
Speaker 1: it's inspired by God. But we need to pay attention
Speaker 1: because he's somebody that was able to speak to God
Speaker 1: face to face. It's three times in the Bible so
Speaker 1: far that I've read where one of them says he
Speaker 1: spoke to him like a friend, which is something that
Speaker 1: I think is incredible. And then two times that i've
Speaker 1: heard the Bible say that he spoke to God face
Speaker 1: to face, once in numbers twelve versus fourth through eight,
Speaker 1: which we already went over, and once here in Deuteronomy five,
Speaker 1: verse four. So that to me is incredible. So that
Speaker 1: validates the book of Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Deuteronomy, you know,
Speaker 1: all these books that we've been reading. It's validation because
Speaker 1: Moses wrote the Torah. Moses spoke to God face to face.
Speaker 1: This is information that is golden for us. We are
Speaker 1: so blessed to have this information. Okay, that's why I
Speaker 1: always say to people science never spoke to God face
Speaker 1: to face. People that speak like they know all this stuff.
Speaker 1: You know, you know all these people, I got an
Speaker 1: IQ of one to eighty. Oh my goodness. Okay, none
Speaker 1: of you guys have spoke to God face to face.
Speaker 1: So if you believe the Bible like I do, this
Speaker 1: is what's happening. We see him speaking to him face
Speaker 1: to face, which I think is absolutely incredible. So let's continue,
Speaker 1: and you know what, I have some pastors, I'll say,
Speaker 1: that's just a metaphor for you spoke to. Now. I'm
Speaker 1: not saying that God was face to face with him
Speaker 1: when that Moses saw God's face and they were like,
Speaker 1: you know, and then I'm just saying that they were
Speaker 1: they were like in close quarters, speaking like a friend. Okay,
Speaker 1: that's amazing and incredible. All right. So Deuteronomy five, verse six,
Speaker 1: I am the Lord your God, who brought you out
Speaker 1: of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. Okay.
Speaker 1: And just to let you know, before we start the
Speaker 1: Ten Commandments, I just want to tell you where you
Speaker 1: can go in reference back. It's Exodus twenty verses one
Speaker 1: through seventeen, which we've already gone over. This is where
Speaker 1: the Ten Commandments is originally released, and there's context and
Speaker 1: everything in there if you want to go back to that. Okay.
Speaker 1: This is kind of just a revisiting it with the
Speaker 1: children of Israel before they enter the Promised Land to
Speaker 1: make sure that he, you know, giving them a refresher course,
Speaker 1: if that makes sense. So it says you shall have
Speaker 1: no other gods before me. Okay. So that so the
Speaker 1: first commandment is, I am the Lord, your God, who
Speaker 1: brought you out of Egypt, out of the house of Slaver.
Speaker 1: You shall have no other gods before me. Okay. So
Speaker 1: this is emphasizes the uniqueness and primacy of God, recrying
Speaker 1: worship and obedience to him alone. I've gone over Psalms
Speaker 1: eighty two, verse one. You guys should check that out. Okay.
Speaker 1: I can kind of go over that real quick, just
Speaker 1: so you guys can kind of see Psalms eighty two,
Speaker 1: verse one. It's almost like he's standing in the divine council.
Speaker 1: I went over this when we were going into Exodus.
Speaker 1: But I know that if this is review for you guys,
Speaker 1: it's okay. You know, it's just we need to hear
Speaker 1: this kind of stuff. This is Psalms eighty two, verse one.
Speaker 1: God stands in the congregation of the Mighty. He judges
Speaker 1: among the gods lowercase g gods. How long will you
Speaker 1: judge unjustly and show partiality to the wicked? Is what
Speaker 1: he's saying to them. This is like speaking in a
Speaker 1: divine council, God, the Father, you know, yahweh Yeah, okay, yahweh.
Speaker 1: He is obviously the king of kings, the God of gods. Okay,
Speaker 1: he can create, you know. But he's speaking to these
Speaker 1: lowercase g gods. And who are they? Are they able
Speaker 1: to create heaven and earth? No, they're not able to
Speaker 1: create heaven and earth. But if you read a little
Speaker 1: further down, it says you are gods or elohem, and
Speaker 1: all of you are children of the Most High. What
Speaker 1: are children of the most High? Sons of God? Right?
Speaker 1: So that means that they are angels. Okay, And these
Speaker 1: angels are not doing what God wants. He wants you
Speaker 1: to defend the poor, the father, to do justice to
Speaker 1: the afflicted and needy, deliver the poor and needy, free
Speaker 1: them from the hand of the wicked. They do not know,
Speaker 1: nor do they understand. They will They walk about in darkness.
Speaker 1: All the foundations of the earth are unstable. I said,
Speaker 1: you are gods and all of you are children of
Speaker 1: the Most High. But you shall die like men and
Speaker 1: fall like one of the princes. Okay, O, rise, Oh God,
Speaker 1: judge the earth, for you shall inherit all nations. Speaking
Speaker 1: to them and says, but you shall die like men,
Speaker 1: which means they are not men. Okay, that's what people
Speaker 1: need to understand. So people have the wrong interpretation of this.
Speaker 1: So when God says you shall have no other gods
Speaker 1: before me, you got to understand that they came out
Speaker 1: of Egypt, where there was you know, Ra was like
Speaker 1: a son God, Osiris, all these different gods, right, So
Speaker 1: he needs to pull all that out of them to
Speaker 1: let them know that God is the only one you
Speaker 1: should worship. You shall have no other gods before for me. Okay.
Speaker 1: The reason why I brought that verse up is to
Speaker 1: let you guys know that the gods that you know,
Speaker 1: these you know Egyptians or Greek or Romans that they're worshiping,
Speaker 1: there is a deity behind them. They're not just mythological
Speaker 1: gods that they just made up. Okay, there's deities behind them.
Speaker 1: And as Paul says that there's demons behind them, what
Speaker 1: do I mean by that? Like, don't you guys think
Speaker 1: that Zeus all these different gods. You don't think that
Speaker 1: they've appeared to somebody before at one time? And what
Speaker 1: do they do? How do they appear? Well, I believe
Speaker 1: they appeared as fallen angels or Satan himself. You know
Speaker 1: what I mean, I'm not saying, you know, I don't
Speaker 1: know how it all works. Don't don't act like I'm
Speaker 1: I'm not going to act like I know for sure
Speaker 1: that happen. But I'm saying that speculating that they probably
Speaker 1: have showed up somehow, you know, to somebody, that's why
Speaker 1: they believe in them so much, and they believe that
Speaker 1: that's that's you know, Zeus is the real thing or whatever.
Speaker 1: I think that Satan would probably play that role, fallen
Speaker 1: angels would play Apollo, and all these different gods Saturn,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. But we got to understand.
Speaker 1: God is saying it in the Bible that he's judging,
Speaker 1: you know, in front of them. He's judging these gods,
Speaker 1: these lowercase g gods. Here's the next commandment. You shall
Speaker 1: not make yourself a carved image any likeness of anything
Speaker 1: that is in heaven above, or that is in the
Speaker 1: earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.
Speaker 1: You shall not bow down to them nor serve them.
Speaker 1: For I, the Lord your God, am a jealous god,
Speaker 1: visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, to
Speaker 1: the third and fourth generations, to those who hate me.
Speaker 1: But showing mercy to thousands, to those who love me,
Speaker 1: and keep my commandments. Okay, so this commandment prohibits the
Speaker 1: creation and worship of idols or any representation of God
Speaker 1: or other deities. We need to understand that because I mean,
Speaker 1: how often do you walk into churches and we also
Speaker 1: make churches an idol? Okay, I mean think about it.
Speaker 1: It's a building. Sometimes you go into church and you're like,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be holy, I'm gonna be good going in here.
Speaker 1: I don't want to get God mad. Walk into church, kids,
Speaker 1: better be on your best behavior because we're in God's
Speaker 1: house and we're in front of the pastor, so you've
Speaker 1: got to make sure. So you go into there and
Speaker 1: then you act all like you're up, you know, upright
Speaker 1: right and perfect. Hey, how you doing, Janet? How you doing?
Speaker 1: And then you get out of the building and then
Speaker 1: you go right back to how you were. So that
Speaker 1: is making the church an idol. You need to make
Speaker 1: everything around life like that. You need to act like
Speaker 1: that all the time because God is always watching. He
Speaker 1: doesn't watch you more at a church. It doesn't make
Speaker 1: you more holy. What the church is for is for fellowship,
Speaker 1: for learning, for teaching, for preaching, for using your spiritual gifts,
Speaker 1: of course with each other, because you're fellowshiping with other Christians.
Speaker 1: But it's not for you to idolize. It's not for
Speaker 1: you to have big old statues of Jesus everywhere and
Speaker 1: Mary holding me, and then you know Tamoose, and you
Speaker 1: know all these other crazy queen of Heaven holding Tamouse
Speaker 1: and all the stuff that you see in some of
Speaker 1: the churches. I'm not going to name them because I'm
Speaker 1: not trying to. I'm just telling you, guys, you gotta
Speaker 1: be careful. This commandment is happening today everywhere. So what
Speaker 1: about wearing a cross on your neck? I don't know.
Speaker 1: I mean, Jesus didn't even die on across any It
Speaker 1: was a t But I'm just saying, maybe it's a
Speaker 1: way that you use the cross to people to ask
Speaker 1: you about Christ. I don't know, you know, but I'm
Speaker 1: just saying, we have to be careful what we make.
Speaker 1: It says you shall not make yourself a carved image
Speaker 1: or likeness of anything that is in heaven above right,
Speaker 1: So if you're making something like a picture of Jesus
Speaker 1: and you put it in your house and you go
Speaker 1: to it and go, I love you Jesus, thank you.
Speaker 1: Like that's not good. If you have rosary beads that
Speaker 1: you know, any kind of things that you make in idol,
Speaker 1: it is not good. Look what it says right here,
Speaker 1: I the Lord, your God, am a jealous God, visiting
Speaker 1: the iniquity of the fathers upon the children of the
Speaker 1: third the four generation, to those who hate me, but
Speaker 1: showing mercy to thousands, to those who love me and
Speaker 1: keep my commandments. He knows this is even how crazy
Speaker 1: it is. Because when we were reading, there was some
Speaker 1: idols that Rachel brought with her out of her father's
Speaker 1: house Lamont. I can't remember his name, it's slipping me
Speaker 1: right now. But those idols were like the will, and
Speaker 1: they were like of God's and she brought it with
Speaker 1: her and he was mad, like he was chasing after her.
Speaker 1: And I remember that happened. But that's just an example.
Speaker 1: But it says, do not make a carved image of
Speaker 1: any likeness or anything that is in heaven above, that
Speaker 1: is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water.
Speaker 1: Oh that's hard, because that that's kind of there's there's
Speaker 1: just I would just suggest you guys, do a deep
Speaker 1: study on that. I'm not gonna name a bunch of stuff, Okay,
Speaker 1: do a deep study on that. Okay. We make things idols,
Speaker 1: like cell phones, we make things out of like social media,
Speaker 1: we make things out of like TVs. We make things
Speaker 1: idols like movies, shows. Stars. Why do you think they're
Speaker 1: called stars? Stars in the in the Bible, I believe
Speaker 1: are angels. Okay, that's you don't have to believe that.
Speaker 1: You can believe they're big balls of gas. It's okay, whatever.
Speaker 1: I'm just saying, like stars, why do you think they
Speaker 1: call themselves stars? They want you to idolize them. Why
Speaker 1: do you think people when they see oh my god,
Speaker 1: it's just oh my gosh, it's Kim Kim Kardashian whatever,
Speaker 1: you know. Or they make a show called American Idol. Right,
Speaker 1: you have somebody that you watch and you, oh, man,
Speaker 1: he's a garbage he's a garbage truck guy, and then
Speaker 1: he just comes in and sings beautifully, and then boom
Speaker 1: they make him into this guy and then boom, he's
Speaker 1: got a million subscribers on Instagram. Anyway, don't want to
Speaker 1: get too much into that, but I'm just saying there's
Speaker 1: just things out there. We got to be careful as Christians.
Speaker 1: We have to be mindful how to be now. If
Speaker 1: you are, the Holy Spirit will guide you, is what
Speaker 1: I'll say. Okay, the Holy Spirit will guide you. You
Speaker 1: know you should feel convicted about certain things, and certain
Speaker 1: things you know you might not feel convicted about. But pray,
Speaker 1: do I have any idols? Is there anything that any
Speaker 1: idol worship I have in my life? Lord, please help
Speaker 1: me because we're in a fallen world. You know, we
Speaker 1: are in a fallen world and we are being taught
Speaker 1: the wrong way through churches and through life through the world.
Speaker 1: The world is trying to teach us, and the churches
Speaker 1: are teaching us, and we are getting taught wrong. I
Speaker 1: think from both. Sometimes I'm not saying that churches are bad.
Speaker 1: I'm just saying that, you know, there's some churches that
Speaker 1: have a lot of this going on. Let's continue. Third commandment.
Speaker 1: You shall not take the name of the Lord your
Speaker 1: God in vain, for the Lord will not hold him
Speaker 1: guiltless who takes his name in vain. This commandment emphasizes
Speaker 1: the importance of respecting God's name and not using it
Speaker 1: casually or disrespectfully. Also using his name in vain, or
Speaker 1: using Christ's name in vain would be saying I'm a Christian,
Speaker 1: but you're not representing Christ the correct way. You're not
Speaker 1: being a proper disciple. You're cussing, you're drinking, chilling on
Speaker 1: the block, smoking weed, doing whatever, and saying I'm a Christian. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you should come to the Lord smoking weed'm or whatever,
Speaker 1: smoking drug, sniffing coke, whatever. That's also using Christ's name
Speaker 1: in vain. If you are being a total ignorant jerk
Speaker 1: and saying you're a Christian, you're causing people to not
Speaker 1: want to come to the faith, then you are also
Speaker 1: using the Lord's name in vain. Okay, that's just an example.
Speaker 1: If you are a pastor and you were representing God
Speaker 1: but you are just doing absolute terrible things, then you
Speaker 1: are taking the Lord's name in vain. If you are
Speaker 1: using God's name disrespectfully, yes, okay, that is a way
Speaker 1: of you know, if you're using God's name and cussing
Speaker 1: with it, Yeah, that is definitely using God's name in
Speaker 1: vain because you're you're supposed to be representing God and
Speaker 1: you're using it in vain. Okay, dude, want to be
Speaker 1: five verse twelve. The fourth commandment, remember the sabbath to
Speaker 1: keep it holy. Six days you shall labor and do
Speaker 1: all your work. But the seventh day is a sabbath
Speaker 1: to the Lord your God. In it you shall do
Speaker 1: not do any work you or your son or your daughter,
Speaker 1: your male servant or your female servant, or your livestock,
Speaker 1: or the soldier who is within your gates. For in
Speaker 1: six days the Lord made the heaven and the earth,
Speaker 1: the sea, and all that is in them, and rested
Speaker 1: on the seventh day. Therefore, the Lord blessed the Sabbath
Speaker 1: day and hollowed it. I'm actually reading I should have
Speaker 1: been reading off her here. Okay, let me read off
Speaker 1: of I'm sorry, I'm reading off of my notes, which
Speaker 1: I shouldn't be doing. I should be reading off of here. Sorry,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna reread that, guys, Okay, because it looks like
Speaker 1: there's a couple of things on here that that's added.
Speaker 1: So okay. Observe the Sabbath day to keep it holy.
Speaker 1: As your Lord God's command you do six days you
Speaker 1: shall labor and do all your work. On the seventh
Speaker 1: day is the sabbath, and your Lord, your God, in
Speaker 1: it you shall do no work, nor you, nor your son,
Speaker 1: nor your daughter, nor your male servant, nor your female servant.
Speaker 1: No your ox, no your donkey. Know your cattle, know
Speaker 1: your stranger who is within your gates, Know your male servant,
Speaker 1: your female servant. May rest as well as you. And
Speaker 1: remember that you were a slave in the land of Egypt,
Speaker 1: and the Lord your God brought you out from there
Speaker 1: by a mighty hand and by an outstretched arm. Therefore,
Speaker 1: the Lord your God commanded you to keep the Sabbath day. Okay,
Speaker 1: so this commandment requires settling aside a day for rest, worship,
Speaker 1: and reflection. Right, So I've kind of gone over this
Speaker 1: and others, you know, and other studies. Okay, So we
Speaker 1: are now Christ died on the cross, right, so every
Speaker 1: day we're holy. So I think we should definitely have
Speaker 1: a Sabbath day. Yes, it says it, you know, we
Speaker 1: should have a Sabbath day, But does it necessarily have
Speaker 1: to be Friday to Saturday evening, Friday evening to Saturday evening.
Speaker 1: I mean, it's said that Jesus fulfilled the law. But
Speaker 1: I think we should definitely keep a Sabbath day. So
Speaker 1: we should have a day of rest, a day of
Speaker 1: worship and a day of reflection. Definitely, I agree with that.
Speaker 1: I definitely agree that we should still as Christians have
Speaker 1: a Sabbath day where we are studying the you know,
Speaker 1: studying God's word. For me I have, you know, I
Speaker 1: wouldn't call it a Sabbath day, but I have a
Speaker 1: lot of reflection and a lot of worship and a
Speaker 1: lot of studying God's word happening in my life. And
Speaker 1: it is tremendously blessing me. Like I tell you guys,
Speaker 1: on so many different levels. Okay, I ain't got no
Speaker 1: time for that now. Sometimes do I mess up, of course,
Speaker 1: like everybody does, you know, but it happens a lot
Speaker 1: less and I don't have a stumbling blocks that are
Speaker 1: just in the way all the time like how I
Speaker 1: was living in the past. Okay, it's a whole different ballgame,
Speaker 1: all right. The playing field is way more level and
Speaker 1: equal for me now compared to how it was before. Okay,
Speaker 1: So when I go into spiritual battle now, it's just
Speaker 1: it's just a it's a blessing because God. I just
Speaker 1: feel like God has my back so much. So just
Speaker 1: letting you guys know that now we got the Fifth
Speaker 1: Commandment honor your father and your mother that you're let
Speaker 1: me read off for here I keep doing that. Honor
Speaker 1: your father and mother, as the Lord your God has
Speaker 1: commanded you that your days may be long, and that
Speaker 1: it may be well with you in the land which
Speaker 1: the Lord your God is giving you. So this one,
Speaker 1: the commandment emphasizes respect and obedience to your parents. Okay,
Speaker 1: I want to go over something real quick because and
Speaker 1: actually in Second Timothy three, verses one through three, Paul
Speaker 1: actually prophesies that in the future people are gonna be
Speaker 1: disobedient to their parents, and that's gonna be Okay, We're
Speaker 1: gonna be right there. So let's go to second Timothy
Speaker 1: versus one through three. See what that says. Second Timothy
Speaker 1: versus one through three.
Speaker 2: Let me make sure.
Speaker 1: Nope, it's not one through three, it's three, one through three,
Speaker 1: my man. Second Timothy three versus one through three. Okay,
Speaker 1: purless times are purless men is the title. But know
Speaker 1: this that in the last days, perilous times will come,
Speaker 1: for men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters,
Speaker 1: proud blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful and holy, unloving and
Speaker 1: forgiving slanders without self control, brutal despisers of good traders, headstrong,
Speaker 1: HAUGHTI lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God. Do
Speaker 1: you notice that part It says disobedience to parents. So
Speaker 1: Paul is actually prophesying that in the last days, people
Speaker 1: are gonna be disobedient to their parents. So honor your
Speaker 1: father and mother. Okay, this is vastly important. Honor your
Speaker 1: father and mother. Yes, okay, but we got to understand something. Okay,
Speaker 1: we have to understand that once you get married and
Speaker 1: you leave the house. Okay, once you get married and
Speaker 1: you leave the house, you are now your own father
Speaker 1: and mother. Because you're gonna leave the house get married.
Speaker 1: I mean, if you're not married, this is you're still
Speaker 1: gonna be uh, you know, the head of your household.
Speaker 1: But you know you're gonna be the father and the
Speaker 1: mother now like me, I'm a father, and and you
Speaker 1: know I have my wife. She's the father and mother
Speaker 1: now now we have kids. Okay, do I still honor
Speaker 1: my mom? Of course, my dad he passed away. Do
Speaker 1: I still honor my wife's mom? Of course? And also
Speaker 1: I honor my wife's dad he lives in Thailand. But
Speaker 1: I still honor him, of course, and we want to
Speaker 1: make sure that we always do that. We keep honoring
Speaker 1: and we should honor everybody, to be honest, we should
Speaker 1: love everybody. But what I want to say here is
Speaker 1: we have to make sure though, once you leave that
Speaker 1: nest with your mom and dad and you marry a wife,
Speaker 1: that and or a wife, once you marry a husband,
Speaker 1: you're now together now, okay, you are one now. Okay,
Speaker 1: honor your father and mother, yes, but now you've got
Speaker 1: to make your own decisions. You gotta break off from
Speaker 1: your mother and father. It'll help you tremendously. You gotta
Speaker 1: break off and go and do your own own thing.
Speaker 1: A lot of people they they're married and they live
Speaker 1: with their parents. Still not saying I'm not judging anybody,
Speaker 1: but you gotta be careful because the parents will start
Speaker 1: trying to, you know, trying to take over your relationship
Speaker 1: and watch you and be you know it, just you
Speaker 1: gotta break off and you got to start your own nest. Okay.
Speaker 1: That's just some advice from my friends that I've seen.
Speaker 1: I've seen either the wife is super unhappy because the
Speaker 1: mom is still you know, the son of the mom
Speaker 1: is still loves the mom. And the mom's always trying to,
Speaker 1: you know, get involved, and it's not good. Man. Just
Speaker 1: take it boom, start your If you can't afford it,
Speaker 1: that's understandable. But work towards getting your own house, your
Speaker 1: own nest. That way, you guys don't have any outside influence.
Speaker 1: Let's continue. And like I said, the first four or
Speaker 1: you know that has to do with you in God,
Speaker 1: the last six has to do with you and other people. Okay.
Speaker 1: Deuteronomy five, verse seventeen, you shall not murder. So this
Speaker 1: commandment prohibits taking a human life unjustly or with malice
Speaker 1: or plan right planning, like if you plan to go
Speaker 1: and do this, Okay. Now, if somebody breaks into your
Speaker 1: home and they're trying to kill you and your wife
Speaker 1: and kids, and you kill them, that is called killing
Speaker 1: and not murder. Okay. And the King james Is says
Speaker 1: thouso not kill. So people kind of get the wrong
Speaker 1: idea about that and they'll be like, oh, that means now.
Speaker 1: I've also heard pastors say that that that also in
Speaker 1: a time of war, that this also applies. Okay. When
Speaker 1: I was in Kuwait and right before I deployed, I
Speaker 1: didn't know if I was gonna go to Kuwait, Iraq, Afghanistan.
Speaker 1: I didn't know. I just knew I was deploying. I
Speaker 1: was wrestling with this thought in my mind so much
Speaker 1: because I knew by that time. I was pretty awake
Speaker 1: at that point that the wars that were happening were
Speaker 1: not wars for the right reasons. So I was very torn.
Speaker 1: I'll just put it that way. But I've heard some
Speaker 1: pastors that have been teaching for thirty years say that
Speaker 1: this doesn't apply in war either. Okay, so they use
Speaker 1: a couple with David and all these couple different people
Speaker 1: they try to use versus on that. I'm not going
Speaker 1: to say that because I don't know. I can't speak
Speaker 1: for God on that one, you know, but it's you know,
Speaker 1: if you're military soldier and then you kill in battle
Speaker 1: like they are trying to kill you, you're trying to
Speaker 1: kill them. So yeah, I guess that is kind of
Speaker 1: makes sense. It's self defense. But you know, we're going
Speaker 1: to war, you know, we're for what reason? Like, is
Speaker 1: is it really God approving that? Anyways, We'll continue I
Speaker 1: wrestle with it, even to this day. I wrestle with that.
Speaker 1: Next up, it's gonna be. You shall not commit adultery.
Speaker 1: You shall not commit This commandment prohibits sexual immorality, especially
Speaker 1: outside of marriage. So it says, especially because God doesn't
Speaker 1: want you to be. God doesn't want you to be
Speaker 1: having sex before marriage either, you know. But so this
Speaker 1: one is something that is rampant, you know, is rampant today?
Speaker 1: How many divorces happen? I wonder if I.
Speaker 2: Could let me try to see.
Speaker 1: Okay, we already went over that.
Speaker 2: I'm just gonna look up some numbers real quick.
Speaker 1: Hold on. It says that a significant number of divorces
Speaker 1: are attributed to adult you, with estimates raising from twenty
Speaker 1: to forty percent of divorces. While not all insistance of
Speaker 1: infidelity lead to divorce, it's a leading cause. Factors like divorce,
Speaker 1: discovery of an affair, broken trust, and the inability to
Speaker 1: reconcile diverces that contribute to the decision to divorce. So
Speaker 1: twenty to forty percent are linked to infidelity, which is lot. Okay,
Speaker 1: it's not good. So there's a reason for this, there's
Speaker 1: I mean, there's a reason why people shouldn't murder. You
Speaker 1: know that. There's there's reason for this. Okay, Like even
Speaker 1: in the Old Testament. When someone murders, we read it,
Speaker 1: we read about it. When someone murders, then they get
Speaker 1: their life taken. Okay, it's it is a capital punishment.
Speaker 1: When someone disrespects their parents, they also get They also
Speaker 1: end up getting stoned or killed. You know, they could
Speaker 1: they could get taken out to the front gates and
Speaker 1: they could they can put him with a judge and
Speaker 1: say this happen, and then they could get killed just
Speaker 1: a different times. Back then. The next one is you
Speaker 1: shall not you shall not steal. Okay, this is Deuteronoma
Speaker 1: be five, verse nineteen. You shall not steal. This commandment prohibit.
Speaker 1: It's taking what belongs to others without their permission. This
Speaker 1: is like even when you're in prison. When when you
Speaker 1: are in prison, even which those are like the guys
Speaker 1: that have done so much crime, when someone steals from somebody,
Speaker 1: they get beat up. Okay, it is a no go.
Speaker 1: It's a violation, and you are looked at in a
Speaker 1: different way. You know. And in the military too, when
Speaker 1: someone steals something like we have all this equipment and
Speaker 1: we we have to keep that equipment our whole military careers. Okay,
Speaker 1: if you lose something at the end of your military career,
Speaker 1: you have to turn everything in, all everything you've required
Speaker 1: since you've been in and you could be you know,
Speaker 1: you go in there and turn it in and you
Speaker 1: can have like seven items missing and you can be
Speaker 1: charged thousands of dollars because some jerk stole it from you.
Speaker 1: But you think, oh, man, I lost it on the field.
Speaker 1: I was dark. Sometimes you're in a tent, it's dark,
Speaker 1: you don't have your head lamp. You maybe think you
Speaker 1: lost something, but it could have been some jerk stealing
Speaker 1: from you. And this is something that's really rampant with
Speaker 1: women in department stores and targets and walmarts. I didn't
Speaker 1: even know about till my wife told me that young
Speaker 1: teenagers they start to steal makeup to begin with, and
Speaker 1: then they start stealing and it just they just become
Speaker 1: really good at it and do it all the time,
Speaker 1: which I don't know. And there's probably there's males that
Speaker 1: steal too, not saying that it's just women. But thou
Speaker 1: shall not steal. You shall not steal. That's the eighth commitment.
Speaker 1: You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor. Commandment
Speaker 1: prohibits lying, especially under oath, especially under oath. Okay, well yeah,
Speaker 1: under oath. Yeah, we should even be under oath. Okay,
Speaker 1: we should even be under oath. That's what this thing
Speaker 1: is saying, under oath in court. That's not You shall
Speaker 1: not bear false winness against your neighbor. Okay, this is
Speaker 1: slandering somebody, which was I mean, we gotta be careful.
Speaker 1: We gotta be careful with this one because I see
Speaker 1: a lot of this happening in the flat earth community,
Speaker 1: like big time, big time. Anyways, let's continue the tenth commandment.
Speaker 1: This is this one is pretty interesting because this is
Speaker 1: no longer like a physical action that you do. This
Speaker 1: is actually you just thinking about it. It is a
Speaker 1: thought in your mind, kind of similar to when Jesus
Speaker 1: says that if you think about a woman, think about
Speaker 1: them in a sexual then you actually already committed adultery.
Speaker 1: It says you shall not covet your neighbor's wife, and
Speaker 1: you shall not desire your neighbor's house, his field, his
Speaker 1: male servant, his female servant, his ox, his donkey, or
Speaker 1: anything that is in your neighbors that is in your neighbors.
Speaker 1: This command prohibit prohibits jealousy, envy, and the desire for
Speaker 1: what belongs to others. And this is something that is
Speaker 1: that bait has hung out all the time, whether it's
Speaker 1: only fans, whether it's all these people on TikTok that
Speaker 1: are influencers or Instagram influencers. They have these Bugattis and
Speaker 1: these Lamborghinis, and they got these cars and they and
Speaker 1: then you got people looking, oh my gosh, wors it
Speaker 1: could be like that person, and then they want they
Speaker 1: idolize them, right. It causes a couple of different commandments
Speaker 1: to be broken at the same time. But yeah, that's
Speaker 1: it's you know, if your neighbor pulls up in a
Speaker 1: Lamborghini and pulls it into his driveway and you look
Speaker 1: at it, like, oh, I wish I had that. Oh
Speaker 1: my gosh. Yeah, all I have is this Honda Pilot.
Speaker 1: Oh all I have is this Honda Civic. Oh man,
Speaker 1: this guy's got a Bugatti. It's our wife, oh hot
Speaker 1: wife next door, Oh my goodness, or next or you know,
Speaker 1: to the left of you, to the right of you,
Speaker 1: across this whatever. And it's so hard because you have
Speaker 1: Instagram now where people could just see other people, like,
Speaker 1: you know, they look up their friends from high school.
Speaker 1: They whatever, it's like this. This one is very easy
Speaker 1: to be broken, you know, so let's continue. It says
Speaker 1: these words, the Lord spoke to all your assembly and
Speaker 1: the out from the midst of the fire, the cloud,
Speaker 1: the thick darkness, with a loud voice. He added no more,
Speaker 1: and he wrote them on two tablets and gave them
Speaker 1: to me. And that's another thing. When Moses went up
Speaker 1: there there was thick clouds, midst of fire, thick darkness,
Speaker 1: loud voice, angels playing a trumpet, angels are there. I mean,
Speaker 1: this is an absolute incredible scenario for him, situation, and
Speaker 1: he has so much faith. He goes up there, comes
Speaker 1: down glowing. People are like, whoa, you're glowing Moses. Like
Speaker 1: supernatural event, like in the spiritual that was amazing. It's
Speaker 1: in the physical though, but it's a supernatural event that
Speaker 1: he went through that is absolutely amazing. Deuteronomy five verse
Speaker 1: So what was when you heard the voice from the
Speaker 1: midst of the darkness while the mountain was burning with fire?
Speaker 1: That you came near me and all the heads of
Speaker 1: your tribes and your elders, and you said, surely, the Lord,
Speaker 1: your God has shown us his glory and his greatness.
Speaker 1: Let me go back to this one. Okay, sorry, Surely
Speaker 1: the Lord has shown his glory, his greatness, and we
Speaker 1: have heard his voice from the midst of the fire.
Speaker 1: We have seen this day that God speaks with man,
Speaker 1: yet he still lives. Now. Therefore, why should we die?
Speaker 1: For this great fire will consume us if we hear
Speaker 1: the voice of the Lord our God, anymore than we
Speaker 1: shall die. For who is there of all flesh who
Speaker 1: has heard the voice of the Living God speaking from
Speaker 1: the midst of the fire, as we have and lived.
Speaker 1: You go near and hear all the Lord. You go near,
Speaker 1: and you hear that the Lord our God may say
Speaker 1: and tell us that the Lord our God says to
Speaker 1: you that we will hear and do it, And we
Speaker 1: will hear and do it. So Verse six begins with
Speaker 1: God's declaration of his identity and at thirty of money
Speaker 1: in so six through twenty one. Okay, Sabbath observance. We
Speaker 1: got that. Verses twelve through fifteen highlight the importance of
Speaker 1: the Sabbath day. We already read through that. I'm just
Speaker 1: looking through my notes real quick, so just to make
Speaker 1: sure I'm not missing anything. Okay, here we go, So
Speaker 1: fear and reverence describing the Israelite's fear of God's presence,
Speaker 1: underscoring the need for reverence and respect for His holiness.
Speaker 1: That's what I wanted to go over. So let's go
Speaker 1: ahead and check out twenty eight through thirty three. Then
Speaker 1: the Lord heard the voice of your words when you
Speaker 1: spoke to me. And the Lord said to me, I
Speaker 1: have heard the voice of the words of this people
Speaker 1: which they have spoken to you. They are right in
Speaker 1: all that they have spoken. Oh, that they have such
Speaker 1: a heart in them that they would fear me and
Speaker 1: always keep my commandments, that it might be well with
Speaker 1: them and with the children for and their children forever.
Speaker 1: Go and say to them, return to your tents, As
Speaker 1: for you stand here by me. I will speak to
Speaker 1: you all the commandments, the statutes, the judgments which you
Speaker 1: shall teach them, that they may observe in them in
Speaker 1: the land which I am giving them to possess. Okay,
Speaker 1: Notice you don't hear God saying to them, follow the
Speaker 1: statutes the judgments which I shall teach them, and it'll
Speaker 1: make it so they go to heaven. That's not what
Speaker 1: he says. It says so that they may observe them
Speaker 1: in the land which I am giving them in the
Speaker 1: to possess. Okay, So God never said to the keep
Speaker 1: the law and you will go to heaven. He said,
Speaker 1: keep the law and I will bless you in the land.
Speaker 1: You know what I mean that he has given them
Speaker 1: to possess. So how do we end up making it
Speaker 1: to heaven. Well, God says even in Isaiah that you're
Speaker 1: you know, your works are like filthy rags. So the
Speaker 1: only way we get to heaven is through Jesus. Right,
Speaker 1: We're saved by grace through faith, For is the gift
Speaker 1: of God out of yourselves, so that no man shall boast.
Speaker 1: Are not by work, so that no man shall boast. Right,
Speaker 1: So we got to understand that what is that second
Speaker 1: Philippians' Apheesians two eight Pheasans two eight. I believe that
Speaker 1: that's what it is. We're saved by grace through faith.
Speaker 1: Through faith and who faith in Jesus Christ. Faith that
Speaker 1: Jesus came, died on the cross, was born again, or
Speaker 1: was born again, died on the cross after three days
Speaker 1: he was rose, rose from the dead. Okay, we got
Speaker 1: to believe that we're saved by the blood of Jesus, right,
Speaker 1: So we got to have faith, for God so loved
Speaker 1: the world he gave has only be gotten son, for
Speaker 1: whoever believe that them should not perish but have everlasting life. Right,
Speaker 1: So we got to understand that. So notice that that
Speaker 1: when he says that here I will speak all the
Speaker 1: commandments of statues. Now should we be obedient to God
Speaker 1: while we're here on earth? Of course, our obedience will
Speaker 1: show others to be obedient, and it will cause other
Speaker 1: people to want to get saved. That's what you're there
Speaker 1: to attract people to the faith, Attract people and then
Speaker 1: give them the good news, Like why is this guy
Speaker 1: so happy? Why does he having much joy? Why does
Speaker 1: he have so much peace? Why is this life going
Speaker 1: so good? Why? Why is it? Why is he going
Speaker 1: like always happy no matter what? What is that joy
Speaker 1: he has? You want to provide that for people so
Speaker 1: that they ask you, what is it? Why is your life?
Speaker 1: Why you always happy, go lucky, joyful, have peace? What
Speaker 1: is it? Then you could tell them that's an opening
Speaker 1: for you to tell them about Jesus, what he did
Speaker 1: for you on the cross, Tell you about God, the Father,
Speaker 1: the Holy Spirit, and start speaking to them whatever the
Speaker 1: Holy Spirit puts on your heart at that time, because
Speaker 1: some people believe that there's like a scale of good
Speaker 1: versus evil still, and that God's gonna have a scale
Speaker 1: of all the good things and the evil, and hopefully
Speaker 1: all the good things weigh the evil, and that way
Speaker 1: I get in, that's what a lot of people believe.
Speaker 1: I mean, please, I mean, and that's natural for our
Speaker 1: mind to believe. I don't know why, but when you
Speaker 1: do something bad, I'll shoot him. I still saved. Oh
Speaker 1: my gosh, I probably just did blasphem me the Holy Spirit.
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, Am I saved? Pastor? Pastor, do you
Speaker 1: think I'm saved? Like, if you're coming to me asking
Speaker 1: me right now, yeah, you're still saved? Like don't Now
Speaker 1: can you lose your salvation? Well there's a debate on that. Okay, Now, yeah,
Speaker 1: if you take the mark of the Beast, your salvation
Speaker 1: is gone. You're a race out of the Book of Life,
Speaker 1: blasph me of the Holy Spirit. Your salvation is gone. Okay.
Speaker 1: So I'm just letting you guys know it can happen.
Speaker 1: But all I'm telling you is, yeah, just understand that
Speaker 1: these the law and the ten Commandments. It will not
Speaker 1: get you saved, but it will get you right with God. Okay,
Speaker 1: it'll make you holy, but you'll never be holy enough
Speaker 1: to make it to Heaven without what Jesus did for
Speaker 1: us on the cross. That's why the saints in the
Speaker 1: Old Testament, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Elijah or Elijah or not Elijah, sorry,
Speaker 1: now Isaiah. All these people that died they went to
Speaker 1: where they they went to Abraham's Bosom paradise in the earth.
Speaker 1: On the other side was shield. You see what I mean.
Speaker 1: That's why they didn't get to go there till Jesus
Speaker 1: died on the cross, because the law will not save you.
Speaker 1: So the Jews right now that are trying to follow
Speaker 1: the law and think that the law saves them, they
Speaker 1: got it twisted. They don't understand that their Messiah already
Speaker 1: came and that the only way to get to Heaven
Speaker 1: is through Jesus for what he did on the cross. Okay,
Speaker 1: So I know that most of you that are listening
Speaker 1: right now probably already know this, but I still got
Speaker 1: to teach and I still got to preach. Dudeon to
Speaker 1: be five point thirty two. Therefore, you shall be careful
Speaker 1: to do as the Lord your God has commanded you.
Speaker 1: You shall not turn aside to the right hand or
Speaker 1: to the left. You shall walk in all the ways
Speaker 1: which the Lord your God has commanded you, that you
Speaker 1: may live, and that it may be well with you,
Speaker 1: and that you may prolong your days in the land
Speaker 1: which you shall possess. Notice this is not talking about salvation.
Speaker 1: This is talking about them getting into the promised land. Okay,
Speaker 1: very interesting. All right, Let's go back to so obedience
Speaker 1: and blessings. Verse thirty two and thirty three, which we
Speaker 1: just read, conclude what they call to obedience, promising that
Speaker 1: following God's commands will lead to life and prosperity. Okay,
Speaker 1: it will lead to blessings, of course, because when you're following,
Speaker 1: when you're obedient to God, you're now not separating yourself
Speaker 1: from God. Because when you sin, it separates you from God.
Speaker 1: And then you start being like Adam in the garden.
Speaker 1: You're hiding from the Lord. Where are you Adam? Right here?
Speaker 1: You know you're hiding because you start feeling all this
Speaker 1: conviction and it starts to mess with your walk with
Speaker 1: the Lord. If you're not if you're obedient to God
Speaker 1: all the time, you're not going to have any type
Speaker 1: of weight on your show. You're gonna be happy, go lucky, excited,
Speaker 1: You're gonna have joy, You're gonna have You're gonna be
Speaker 1: loving the word of God. It's not gonna be convicting
Speaker 1: you because your you have obedience everything that God is
Speaker 1: telling you in the Bible. It will make you your
Speaker 1: life so much easier. Right, No d ui s, no
Speaker 1: beating your wife, no adultry, no fighting, no lying, no arguing,
Speaker 1: no stealing, no jail, no prison, no drugs, no alcohol.
Speaker 1: I mean, there's so much stuff that if you got
Speaker 1: rid of that stuff in your life, your life would
Speaker 1: be so much better. But you see what happens is,
Speaker 1: you know, you start to fall away from the Lord,
Speaker 1: and then your life will just go to shambles. Everything
Speaker 1: I mentioned there, pornography, uh, sexual morality, masturbation, all that
Speaker 1: stuff that that that that just clouds our mind. Uh Instagram,
Speaker 1: uh whatever, people whatever, you know, Like all that stuff
Speaker 1: is just it's just going to cause you to be
Speaker 1: separated from God. Whenever you're doing that kind of stuff.
Speaker 1: The Holy Spirit wants to be with you. He wants
Speaker 1: he wants to make your spirit strong and your flesh weak.
Speaker 1: But we're over here getting fed so much of our flesh,
Speaker 1: that our flesh just you know, it's it's it's getting
Speaker 1: Your flesh needs to get beat down, your spirit needs
Speaker 1: to get built up, and your flesh needs to just
Speaker 1: be like, I can't take it anymore. This this Bible
Speaker 1: that you've been reading. That's why these studies are so
Speaker 1: important for me and for you, because I need it
Speaker 1: just like you guys need it. Because I am just man.
Speaker 1: I I have a life too. Can I get angry? Yes?
Speaker 1: Can I Can I get mad? Yes? Can I can
Speaker 1: I stumble? Yes? So I need this study just as
Speaker 1: much as you guys need it. Jonathan and Jacob, you
Speaker 1: guys don't even know what you uh started here, you know,
Speaker 1: and God actually started it, probably put the idea in
Speaker 1: their head to start these Bible studies, but they don't
Speaker 1: even understand what this is doing for people. I get
Speaker 1: the messages on Instagram, the dms, and I see now
Speaker 1: it's not me, it's not Josh Monday. Oh my gosh,
Speaker 1: Josh Monday're this You're that? No, it's all glory to
Speaker 1: God because this is working for his plan, you know.
Speaker 1: But my whole point there was that it's just well,
Speaker 1: the point is I started walking with God. I started
Speaker 1: reading the Bible. I started getting interested in the Bible.
Speaker 1: I started reading, started teaching, start a podcast. And what
Speaker 1: happened with me? I mean, I ended up in this
Speaker 1: position where I can actually be like a teacher for
Speaker 1: you guys, because I started like getting this passion for
Speaker 1: reading the Word. You know, it's a blessing. But I
Speaker 1: do have some practical applications I can tell you guys
Speaker 1: about from the chapter five. I like to go over
Speaker 1: reflect on the commandments. Regularly review the ten Commandments and
Speaker 1: access how they apply to your life today. Of course,
Speaker 1: do that, check them out and then mark off, make
Speaker 1: a list of them, and then kind of make a
Speaker 1: list of the stuff that you do and that you
Speaker 1: feel like you're a little convicted about, and compare and
Speaker 1: contrast and be like is this obviously murder would be
Speaker 1: one that's hopefully is not on your list. Okay, hopefully
Speaker 1: you're not murder and hopefully not adult you and hopefully
Speaker 1: not stealing. Okay, but you know, this idol worship stuff,
Speaker 1: it can get real. It's a slippery sloop. Oh my gosh,
Speaker 1: Like you read that and you're like, oh my goodness, really, like,
Speaker 1: what about people that have mermaids in their house. I
Speaker 1: mean that's under the water, and those are supposed to
Speaker 1: be like demonic spirits or whatever like. So some people say,
Speaker 1: what about when you have this, what about you know, like,
Speaker 1: just study it, see what you're convicted about. And if
Speaker 1: you're convicted about something, take it up with the Lord.
Speaker 1: Put it on the altar and take it up with
Speaker 1: the Lord, and the Holy Spirit will guide you. Honor
Speaker 1: the Sabbath. Make a conscious effort to set aside time
Speaker 1: to and spiritual reflection. Remember God's provision and deliverance. Of course,
Speaker 1: God delivered the people out of Egypt. But God delivered us, oh,
Speaker 1: from the devil, because we are saved through Christ what
Speaker 1: He did on the cross. We have the Holy Spirit.
Speaker 1: So remember that's our deliverance. We were delivered. Okay. Cultivate reverence,
Speaker 1: Approach God with a heart and reverence and awe recognizing
Speaker 1: his holiness and authority. That is so important. Sometimes when
Speaker 1: I speak to God, Father, God and the name of Jesus,
Speaker 1: thank you for this, Thank you for that. Appreciate that
Speaker 1: I want to pray for so and so so and
Speaker 1: so so and so, and you know, you know I
Speaker 1: need this my kids. Thank you for the food, and
Speaker 1: I appreciate you, and I kind of just and then
Speaker 1: like you know, and the prayer, you know. And then
Speaker 1: and then I read Leviticus and I'm like, oh my gosh,
Speaker 1: like the things that they had to do to speak
Speaker 1: to God back then, they wouldn't even say his name,
Speaker 1: like they had so much respect for God. And we
Speaker 1: don't understand. Since we have Jesus right now the mediator
Speaker 1: between us and God, we just take advantage of it
Speaker 1: and we don't even realize what they used to have
Speaker 1: to do before to even be able to speak to God.
Speaker 1: So yes, recognize his holiness and authority and be in
Speaker 1: awe of what he has done for you. Commit to obedience.
Speaker 1: Strive to live in obedience to God's commands, trusting that
Speaker 1: his ways lead to true life and blessings. We talked
Speaker 1: about that already. We definitely just talked about that, so
Speaker 1: it's nice that we already spoke about it. A couple
Speaker 1: verses that you guys can go back to Exodus twenty
Speaker 1: verses one through seventeen, that is providing context and comparisons
Speaker 1: to the Ten Commandments, so that way you could kind
Speaker 1: of see when it was originally given right Exodus twenty
Speaker 1: verses one through seventeen. Also Matthew twenty two, thirty seven
Speaker 1: through four. Jesus summarizes the law with the Greatest Commandments,
Speaker 1: emphasizing love for God and love your neighbor as yourself right,
Speaker 1: love the Lord God with all your heart, mind, body,
Speaker 1: and soul. Okay. James one twenty two are one twenty
Speaker 1: two through twenty five encouraged to be doers of the Word,
Speaker 1: not just hearers, aligning with the call to obedience. So
Speaker 1: check out James one twenty two through twenty five if
Speaker 1: you kind of want to go over that, I want
Speaker 1: to switch now to Deuteronomy six. So that was perfect
Speaker 1: amount of time. Deuuronomy six, verse one. Let me see
Speaker 1: if I missed anything on my notes real quick from
Speaker 1: my other notes, Yeah, we that I have here. Some
Speaker 1: of us arrogantly say, if God would just appear to me,
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, I have something here that I
Speaker 1: didn't get to. So what's interesting is, you know I
Speaker 1: talked about, you know, when Moses was on the mountain
Speaker 1: and all this stuff. Like some people, you know, they
Speaker 1: arrogantly say, you know, if God would just appear to me,
Speaker 1: then I would believe in him. But the people knew
Speaker 1: that if they saw God they would just die, you know,
Speaker 1: or they were so afraid to see God back then.
Speaker 1: Nowadays people try to say that, oh, if I could
Speaker 1: see go, if God would just appear to me, then
Speaker 1: I'd be good. You know, like that's so arrogantly speaking
Speaker 1: because they don't understand the awe. They don't understand God's authority,
Speaker 1: his holiness, they don't understand that for them to say
Speaker 1: something like that. And another thing about verse, you know,
Speaker 1: chapter five I have written down to us, is we
Speaker 1: always snuggle up to God's word when we are in need.
Speaker 1: But when we're doing good, you know, when everything's going great,
Speaker 1: did we do the same. We should always be into
Speaker 1: God's word no matter how your life is going. It's
Speaker 1: not about, oh, my life's going bad. I need to
Speaker 1: depend on the Lord now, and then your life's going good,
Speaker 1: and then you depend on yourself. Always depend on the Lord,
Speaker 1: and always go back and read the Word. And always
Speaker 1: listen to a Bible study. Not just you don't have
Speaker 1: to listen to mine, but make sure that you're listening
Speaker 1: to somebody teaching the Bible verse by verse, somehow, some way,
Speaker 1: it'll it'll bless you, and it'll you know, it'll, it'll
Speaker 1: keep you. We talked about it about obedience. Okay, so
Speaker 1: that was something I had in my notes. Deuteronomy six.
Speaker 1: Let me go back to here, all right. This now,
Speaker 1: this is Deuteronomy six, verse one, the greatest commandment. Now
Speaker 1: this is the commandment. And these are the statutes and
Speaker 1: judgments which the Lord your God has commanded you, commanded
Speaker 1: to teach you that you may observe them in the
Speaker 1: land which you are crossing over to possess. That you
Speaker 1: may fear the Lord your God to keep all the
Speaker 1: statutes and his commandments which I commit and you, you
Speaker 1: and your son and your grandson, and all your days
Speaker 1: of your life, and that your days may be prolonged. Therefore,
Speaker 1: hero Israel, and be careful to observe it, that it
Speaker 1: may be well with you, and that you may multiply greatly,
Speaker 1: as the Lord God of your father's has promised you
Speaker 1: a land flowing with milk and honey. So he's getting
Speaker 1: them ready for the promised land, right, he's getting them ready.
Speaker 1: And these are the children of all the people that
Speaker 1: were in the wilderness that get to go. Joshua the
Speaker 1: son of None and Caleb also get to go in
Speaker 1: the Promised Land. But Moses uh ah, all the adults
Speaker 1: that wanted the wilderness for forty years ah because of disobedience.
Speaker 1: Very interesting, So Verses one through three. Moses instructions, it
Speaker 1: is your life about the statutes, judgments, and commandments. They
Speaker 1: should observe in the Promised Land. By doing so, they
Speaker 1: may live long, multiply, and enjoy the blessings of a
Speaker 1: fertile life. Six' Five DID i get to five? Yet? Nope, wait,
Speaker 1: NOPE i haven't got there. Yet all, right let's. Continue so,
Speaker 1: Here Oh, israel The, lord Our, god The lord is.
Speaker 1: One you noticed that's an, exclamation, Boy that's WHY i said.
Speaker 1: It the way you shall love Your, god you should.
Speaker 1: Love you shall love The lord Your god with all your,
Speaker 1: heart with all your, soul and with all your. Strength
Speaker 1: let's look into that real. Quick it says that's called
Speaker 1: the shima the, sima, right that's that's The deuteronomy six y.
Speaker 1: Four Hero, israel The, lord Our, god The lord is.
Speaker 1: One does that verse right? THERE a lot of people
Speaker 1: will use that verse as a verse to try to
Speaker 1: say The trinity is not, true because look what it
Speaker 1: says right, here In deuteronomy six. Four but there's you,
Speaker 1: know there's there's things in The Old testament that that,
Speaker 1: well there's. Plurality even the Word eloheim is. Plurality, dude
Speaker 1: can be. Plural in the, Beginning eloheim created the, Sham
Speaker 1: miaim and the, euret the heavens and the. Earth, ooh,
Speaker 1: okay what's up with That. Loheim instead of saying, yeah
Speaker 1: weh it Says. Loheim loheim could be. Plural, okay that's
Speaker 1: that's one. Thing and then also if you look At
Speaker 1: GENESIS wi twenty, seven twenty, Eight god is, saying let
Speaker 1: us make man in our image very. Interesting some people
Speaker 1: would say that he's speaking to the. Angels some people
Speaker 1: would say that he's speaking to The, Trinity, jesus and
Speaker 1: The Holy. Spirit if you notice in the very beginning
Speaker 1: of The, bible where it says The spirit was hovering
Speaker 1: over the face of the. Waters you Have god The
Speaker 1: father there creating through the Word john one. One, right
Speaker 1: he's creating through the. Word colossians one fifteen says that
Speaker 1: everything was made through him for. Him let's go ahead
Speaker 1: and go there real. Quick it, says this is speaking Of. Jesus,
Speaker 1: okay he is the image of the Invisible. God well
Speaker 1: didn't we just. DIDN'T i just tell you guys that it,
Speaker 1: said let us make man in our. Image, well it
Speaker 1: says here That jesus is the image of the Visible,
Speaker 1: god the firstborn overall. Creation oh he was. Born, well,
Speaker 1: yeah he was. Born he was born into a, virgin of,
Speaker 1: Course but first born doesn't necessarily mean that he was
Speaker 1: born or. Created what it means is just Like. David
Speaker 1: he was called the first. Born but he had brothers
Speaker 1: and they were all older than. Him you, know are
Speaker 1: not all of? Them some of them were older than.
Speaker 1: Him i'm not sure if he was the youngest or
Speaker 1: what it. WAS i have to look into. That but,
Speaker 1: anyways then it says in verse sixteen Of, colossians for
Speaker 1: by him all things were created that are in heaven
Speaker 1: that are on, earth visible, invisible whether thrones or, dominions
Speaker 1: or principalities or, powers all the things were created through
Speaker 1: him and for. Him, okay what's going on? There so
Speaker 1: how does that? Work? Well god, said let there be
Speaker 1: which that word let there be means. Exist god said, exist.
Speaker 1: Firmament god said. Exist you, know you, know, whatever WHATEVER i,
Speaker 1: COULD i could read it to, You but just just
Speaker 1: make an. Example god said exist. Lights you, know let
Speaker 1: there be, light exist. Light that's what it. Is let
Speaker 1: there be light means. Exist god spoke exist, light and
Speaker 1: that's the way it. Was he would speak it and
Speaker 1: it would. Become and if you look At john one,
Speaker 1: one it talks About, okay BEFORE i go, that it,
Speaker 1: says we'll continue in colautions and he is before all,
Speaker 1: things and in him all things. Consist he is the
Speaker 1: head of the body of The, church who in the
Speaker 1: beginning the firstborn from the, dead that in all things
Speaker 1: he may have the pre. Eminence, okay very. Interesting let's
Speaker 1: go ahead and go to. One And i'm not trying
Speaker 1: to prove The trinity to you guys, HERE i am A.
Speaker 1: Trinitarian but WHAT i want to prove to you is
Speaker 1: that you need to study that study The, trinity whether
Speaker 1: You're Oneness, trinitarian or You're. Unitarian and if you're listening
Speaker 1: to the, show don't be turned off by What i'm.
Speaker 1: Saying All i'm saying is this could be a proof
Speaker 1: text for you if you're a Oneness this could be
Speaker 1: a proof text For, trinitarians Because trinitarians do believe in One.
Speaker 1: God So i'm not going to keep going on. That
Speaker 1: but you can look At john one where it says
Speaker 1: in the beginning was The. Word The word was With,
Speaker 1: god and The word Was. God he was in the
Speaker 1: beginning With. God all things were made through, him and
Speaker 1: without him nothing was made that was. MADE i, know
Speaker 1: if you were a oneness or, whatever understand That jesus
Speaker 1: was there during the. Creation and if you're A, UNITARIAN
Speaker 1: i mean it's saying right here That jesus was there
Speaker 1: during the. Creation, no he was just an. Idea, no
Speaker 1: it seems like he was there because he was The.
Speaker 1: Word When god said let there be it seems like That's.
Speaker 1: Jesus he speaks through. Him that's why it says it's
Speaker 1: created through. Him all things were made through, him and
Speaker 1: without him nothing was made that was. Made so very interesting.
Speaker 1: Stuff ALL i want to say to, you, guys is
Speaker 1: this verse right. Here if you're a, ONENESS i understand
Speaker 1: where you're coming from BECAUSE i have studied it. Deeply
Speaker 1: i've had, People, Dude i've heard debates after debate after
Speaker 1: debate On unitarians Versus, Trinitarian trinitarian versus one, Noess So
Speaker 1: i've heard the argument all back and. Forth but understand
Speaker 1: if you are a, TRINITARIAN i don't believe that this
Speaker 1: verse because we do believe that there's three persons and One.
Speaker 1: God we're monotheistic just like everybody. Else so, Anyways i'm
Speaker 1: not trying To i'm not going to sit here and
Speaker 1: try to prove the trinity, here BUT i do want
Speaker 1: people to understand. That, Okay so let's. Continue let me
Speaker 1: make Sure i'm not missing anything verses four through. Nine
Speaker 1: have we not read through nine? Yet? Nope let's. Continue
Speaker 1: these words WHICH i com mand you today shall be
Speaker 1: in your. Heart now another. Thing the reason Why god
Speaker 1: is saying that The, lord Our, god The lord is.
Speaker 1: One the reason why he's saying that is because they
Speaker 1: came out Of egypt with a bunch of pagans with
Speaker 1: a bunch of different gods with. Them you. Know also
Speaker 1: they just, there parents of these, people they were worshiping
Speaker 1: The golden. Calf they have paganism in, them okay for
Speaker 1: them to worship other. Gods so that's why he doesn't. Understand,
Speaker 1: oh here a, lizard The, lord Our, god The lord is.
Speaker 1: One all, right let's. Continue this is six verse. Seven
Speaker 1: you shall teach them diligently to your, children and shall
Speaker 1: talk to them when you sit in your, house when
Speaker 1: you walk by the, way when you lie, down and
Speaker 1: when you rise. Up you shall bind them as a
Speaker 1: sign in your, hand and they shall pass as frontlets
Speaker 1: between your. Eyes you shall write them on the door
Speaker 1: post on your house and on your. Gates you, know
Speaker 1: write it on your. Heart it's you, know he's talking
Speaker 1: about the law, right it should it should, be or
Speaker 1: the commandments, Right and these words WHICH i command to
Speaker 1: you shall be in your heart, Right so you should
Speaker 1: be walking around you should you should be they should
Speaker 1: you should already you should already be convicted if you're breaking. Them,
Speaker 1: right you shall teach them building to your. Children, yes
Speaker 1: you should teach. Them and when it says that you
Speaker 1: should have one on your doorposts and on your, gates
Speaker 1: it means you walk by your door posts in your
Speaker 1: gate every. Day it just means that you should be constantly.
Speaker 1: REMINDED i have versus on my, walls you, know in
Speaker 1: my house to remind. Me you, KNOW i have versus

Speaker 1: you rather have? That or a picture Of Kim kardashian
Speaker 1: on your? Wall? Hello or whatever you know that people have,
Speaker 1: anyways So verses fourth through, nine known as The, shima
Speaker 1: are central to The jewish prayer and highlight the monotheistic
Speaker 1: essence of. Faith Hero, lord The, lord Our, god The
Speaker 1: lord is one the importance Of god's. Word the chapter
Speaker 1: emphasizes the need to Keep god's commandments at the forefront
Speaker 1: of daily, life as seen in verses six through, nine
Speaker 1: which instruct believers to teach them diligently to their, children
Speaker 1: to discuss them in daily. Routines caution against. Disobedience so
Speaker 1: here we. Go this is something we should all pay attention,
Speaker 1: to right including. ME, i LIKE i, SAID i needed.
Speaker 1: Too so it shall be when The lord Your god
Speaker 1: brings you into the land of which he swore to your,

Speaker 1: sudden you get your house and everything you wanted to
Speaker 1: that wife and those, kids and then you start falling.
Speaker 1: Away that's not what we should. Do let's continue from

Speaker 1: lack of faith When they questioned god's ability to provide
Speaker 1: water in a. Time Of crisis the israelites were wit
Speaker 1: to see miraculous water provision, in the Desert later, doubted
Speaker 1: god's ability leading them To ask the Lord is the
Speaker 1: lord among? Us or not the act of doubt, demanded
Speaker 1: a sign which Was prompted by moses to Name, the place.
Speaker 1: Basau meaning testing so we. WENT over it i. REMEMBER
Speaker 1: a massa i just didn't remember what. THE word MEANT
Speaker 1: i thought i had something to, do with water but
Speaker 1: it looks like it was, it MEANT testing which i
Speaker 1: think THAT day that i went Over that. AND exodus
Speaker 1: seventeen i actually said that that. It means testing but
Speaker 1: my mind is So packed with bible stuff that it's
Speaker 1: very hard to remember. Certain things. Sometimes, believe me. Okay

Speaker 1: commanded us to observe, all these statutes To fear The
Speaker 1: lord our god, for our good for, our good always
Speaker 1: that he might preserve us alive as it. Is this
Speaker 1: day then it might be righteousness for us if we
Speaker 1: are careful to observe all these Commandments before The, lord
Speaker 1: our god as he has commanded us so that last
Speaker 1: part is. Obedience of blessing the chapter concludes with the
Speaker 1: reminder That obedience to god's commandments leads us to. Righteousness
Speaker 1: and blessings deuteronomy six serves as a pivotal call Pivotal
Speaker 1: call To, israel for moses emphasizing both the essential nature
Speaker 1: of Their relationship with god and the crucial responsibility of
Speaker 1: teaching their. Children about him with both, Warnings and encouragement
Speaker 1: moses reminds, them to remember obey And pass. Down, god's

Speaker 1: a True follower of christ, as a, president you. Know
Speaker 1: TRUE follower and i don't know His, relationship With god
Speaker 1: so i'm not, trying TO judge but i, would just
Speaker 1: say a True. Follower, of christ okay let's look at

Speaker 1: twenty two thirty. Seven through forty jesus reiterates, the greatest
Speaker 1: commandment linking it to. Loving one's Neighbor proverbs three verses
Speaker 1: one through six emphasize the Importance of keeping god's commandments and.
Speaker 1: Trusting in, him joshua one verse eight Encourages meditating on
Speaker 1: god's word day and night for. Success and prosperity and you.

Speaker 3: in your, heart holy spirit let, him Guide you let.
Speaker 1: Him keep, you let's. SEE all right I don't think i'm.
Speaker 2: MISSING anything else.
Speaker 1: I. Think we're good now we're Gonna be in, deuteronomy
Speaker 1: verse seven are, not verse, Seven chapter seven and we
Speaker 1: got here We go, Uh deuteronomy. SEVEN verse one, a
Speaker 1: chosen People when The lord your god brings you into
Speaker 1: the land which you, go to possess and cast out many,
Speaker 1: nations Before, you The, hittites The, jergisites The, amorites The,
Speaker 1: canaanites The, parazites the Hitites, the jbi sites seven nations
Speaker 1: greater and. Mightier than you And When the lord god
Speaker 1: delivers them. Over to you you shall conquer them and.
Speaker 1: Utterly destroy them you shall make no, covenant with them
Speaker 1: nor show, mercy to them nor shall you make. Marriages
Speaker 1: with them you should not give your daughter, to their
Speaker 1: son nor take their daughter. For your son for they
Speaker 1: will turn your sons Away from following me to. Serve
Speaker 1: other gods so the Anger of the lord will be
Speaker 1: aroused against you and. Destroy you suddenly but thus you shall.
Speaker 1: Deal with them you shall, destroy their altars and break down,
Speaker 1: their sacred pillars and cut down, their wooden images and
Speaker 1: burn their carved. Images with fire This is what god
Speaker 1: is telling. Them to do make sure that you be. Obedient,
Speaker 1: To that okay so we'll read the so verses. One
Speaker 1: through five God instructs the israel sladly destroy the seven
Speaker 1: nations of promise that they do not make the treaties
Speaker 1: with them nor intermarry. Any such unions let me see
Speaker 1: what the. Teaching point is god can. And. Your perseparation okay,
Speaker 1: so it Says when The lord your god brings you
Speaker 1: into the land you are, entering to possess he drives
Speaker 1: out before. You many nations you must not. Intermarry with
Speaker 1: them God commands the israelies to avoid alliances with pagan
Speaker 1: nations to. Prevent spiritual corruption this is why when if
Speaker 1: you are a young man or young woman and you're,
Speaker 1: not married yet understand you should look for somebody that
Speaker 1: is equally. Yoked with you when you marry somebody that is,
Speaker 1: a non believer or you Marry somebody that's Muslim in
Speaker 1: your christian or you Marry somebody that's Catholic IN your
Speaker 1: christian i know that you might think. There's no difference, There's,
Speaker 1: A difference okay. I'm just saying and you Marry somebody
Speaker 1: that's Mormon And your christian jobah's Witness in, your christian
Speaker 1: whatever you're gonna have a battle on your hands trying
Speaker 1: to get that person to. Follow your ways and if
Speaker 1: you're a man and you're the head of the household and,
Speaker 1: the spiritual leader and you marry a wife that is has,
Speaker 1: a different religion as long as she agrees To convert
Speaker 1: to christianity and, she gets saved. That's that's different but
Speaker 1: if you're if you, have a wife you're gonna marry
Speaker 1: even though she's the most beautiful girl in the world
Speaker 1: and the most nicest person, in the world you were
Speaker 1: gonna have, an uphill, battle believe me because there's certain
Speaker 1: things that have been ingrained in that woman or ingrained
Speaker 1: in that man that you will maybe not be able
Speaker 1: to get him away from or. Her away from and
Speaker 1: then you're gonna want to teach your children the Ways, of,
Speaker 1: the lord right and they're gonna want to teach your
Speaker 1: children the Ways, of their lord YOU know. What i
Speaker 1: mean and it's, gonna be different and it's, gonna cause
Speaker 1: problems and your kid's gonna. Be very confused so do
Speaker 1: your very best to be equally yoked with your wife
Speaker 1: or real you're gonna have that that'll help you, prevent
Speaker 1: spiritual corruption because that's. What, will happen, yeah believe me spiritual.
Speaker 1: Corruption will happen and also fires. And are fires fights
Speaker 1: are gonna happen between you and. Your spouse constantly and
Speaker 1: if they have all these idols that they don't want to,
Speaker 1: get rid of and they're in your home and they're
Speaker 1: teaching your child to idol worship, and to pray to
Speaker 1: marry and to do all these different things that you might,
Speaker 1: not agree with you're, gonna be, like oh my like
Speaker 1: this is not good and it's gonna be hard because
Speaker 1: they've already been indoctrinated so deep and you're trying to
Speaker 1: like get them to release that. Type, of stuff well,
Speaker 1: my parents say, my mom says, my dad, like oh.
Speaker 1: Man it's hard it's. All pel battles so look for
Speaker 1: a woman that, you you know obviously great. Connection everything
Speaker 1: with but also if you're gonna get, married to somebody
Speaker 1: make sure. You're equally, yoked believe me that's just a little.
Speaker 1: Word of advice god is talking about. It right here
Speaker 1: no one make. Marriages with them you should not give
Speaker 1: your daughters to their son or their daughters. To your
Speaker 1: son but they will turn your sons Away from following
Speaker 1: me to. Serve other gods so the Anger of the
Speaker 1: lord will be aroused against you. And, destroy you. Suddenly
Speaker 1: this goes this is something we can take too to
Speaker 1: the life we. Have right now there is so many
Speaker 1: worldly people out there that their focus is Not. On
Speaker 1: the lord so they will drive You. Away from god
Speaker 1: they will drive you away from, going to church they
Speaker 1: will drive you Away. From THE bible SO i just
Speaker 1: i really think that this is big for. Us to
Speaker 1: understand and if you're already, married to somebody that's. A
Speaker 1: non believer, You will, see you'll know you'll be going to.
Speaker 1: Church by yourself you'll be going to you'll be listening.
Speaker 1: To the pastors you'll be your only spiritual leader will.
Speaker 1: Be the pastor and you'll. Be by yourself and you
Speaker 1: try to take your, kids with you and your, husband,
Speaker 1: will say kids you can go, if you want or
Speaker 1: you could, stay with me and the, Kids might say
Speaker 1: i'm gonna. Stay with data you're going to, church by
Speaker 1: yourself and. That's not cool that's not. Cool at all
Speaker 1: the husband should be the spiritual leader. Of, The home
Speaker 1: Anyways let's, continue deuteronomy. Seven verse six for you are
Speaker 1: a holy People to The. Lord Your god The lord
Speaker 1: your god has chosen you to be a, people for
Speaker 1: himself a special treasure above all the peoples on the face.
Speaker 1: Of The earth the lord did not set his, love
Speaker 1: on you nor choose you because you were more in
Speaker 1: number than, any other people for you or least. Of
Speaker 1: all peoples But because the, lord loves you and because
Speaker 1: he would keep the oath which he swore. To Your
Speaker 1: fathers the lord has brought you out of the mighty
Speaker 1: hand and redeemed you from the house as a bondage
Speaker 1: slaver right from the hand of The pharaoh Of. King,
Speaker 1: of egypt now these are the children of the people
Speaker 1: that were taken. Out, Of bondage right so it's like they,
Speaker 1: need to know they need, to get refreshed refresher course on. All.
Speaker 1: This stuff right but it's so beautiful six through, uh
Speaker 1: through eight it's So beautiful what god, is saying here
Speaker 1: a special treasure above all the people on the face. Of,
Speaker 1: The earth Okay so the lord did not set his,
Speaker 1: love on you nor choose you because you were, more
Speaker 1: in number like he could have, got, you know, twenty
Speaker 1: you know two billion people or whatever that. He could
Speaker 1: have it's. Because his love it's just, It's really special
Speaker 1: like it's not about the. Number of people it's about
Speaker 1: his love that he, has for. Them you know, so
Speaker 1: chosen people this is going to be for you are
Speaker 1: a people Holy to The. Lord Your god The lord
Speaker 1: your god has chosen you to be a people for.
Speaker 1: His Prize possession the israelites are reminded of their Unique
Speaker 1: statutes as god's chosen people to be set up part. Of,
Speaker 1: his purposes now we could take this verse and if
Speaker 1: you're saved, through YOU know then i would say that
Speaker 1: this Is the way god feels about you right. Now
Speaker 1: as well you, are, Chosen now okay and this Is not,
Speaker 1: the jews anyways This, is the israelites. ALL twelve tribes
Speaker 1: i know that three of the, tribes, stayed back right
Speaker 1: but this is speaking to, all. Of them right and
Speaker 1: then seven, and eight says but it Is because the
Speaker 1: lord loves you and is keeping the oath he swore.
Speaker 1: To your father's god's actions are rooted in his love
Speaker 1: and faithfulness. To, His promises yes God cannot lie. Titus
Speaker 1: one too It's impossible for God to, lie hebrews. Six,
Speaker 1: verse eighteen right You can't please. God without faith it's
Speaker 1: Impossible to please. God. Without, faith right so and then
Speaker 1: also It, Says that god god is, not a man that.
Speaker 1: He Should, Lie in deuteronomy we're going to read that,
Speaker 1: at some point so we got. To understand, that let's go.
Speaker 2: Let me see.
Speaker 1: Where, we're at. Okay verse, nine deuteronomy. Seven, verse nine
Speaker 1: therefore Know that The, lord your God, he is God
Speaker 1: the faithful god who keeps covenant and mercy for a
Speaker 1: thousand generations with those who love him and, keep his
Speaker 1: commandments and he repays those. Who hate him to their faith.
Speaker 1: To destroy them he will not be slack with him.
Speaker 1: Who hates him he will repay him. To, his face
Speaker 1: therefore you shall, keep the, commandment the statutes and THE
Speaker 1: judgments which i command you today, to observe them so
Speaker 1: we have. Blessings of obedience then it shall, come to
Speaker 1: pass because you listen to these judgments and keep, and

Speaker 1: wine your oil the increase, of your cattle and the offspring,
Speaker 1: of your flock and the land in which he swore
Speaker 1: to your fathers. To give you you shall be blessed,
Speaker 1: above all peoples and Shall not be there shall not
Speaker 1: be a male or female barren among you or. Among,
Speaker 1: your livestock wow that's a. Very interesting promise that means
Speaker 1: that there's not going to be a female that can't
Speaker 1: have children, among the people the male and the females and. The,
Speaker 1: life stock wow that's what. That promise is that's, that's a,
Speaker 1: wonderful beautiful promise especially, for the females because if the females,
Speaker 1: can't have children it puts him in a, really odd,
Speaker 1: position you know back then. AND even, now i mean
Speaker 1: it's hard if you don't if you. CAN'T have children.
Speaker 1: I believe me, and my wife we, have three children
Speaker 1: but we we're trying. To have kids we lost our
Speaker 1: son and we're trying, to have, kids you know and.
Speaker 1: Sometimes it's, hard it's hard especially when you get a

Speaker 1: the ones, that we have and we appreciate the son that.
Speaker 1: Did pass Away, thank you lord at least you know

Speaker 1: afflict you with none of the Terrible diseases of egypt which,
Speaker 1: you have known but will lay them on those. Who,

Speaker 1: need to, destroy their idols and, said he said you
Speaker 1: need to. Burn their idols you need to make sure
Speaker 1: you don't bring any of that stuff with you because

Speaker 1: of israel i think that's what the strongs, is saying,
Speaker 1: HERE all right i just wanted to. Check that out
Speaker 1: so let's go, back, To here Right let's, continue deuteronomy seven.
Speaker 1: Verse twenty one you shall not be, terrified of Them
Speaker 1: for The, lord Your god the Great, and awesome god.
Speaker 1: Is among You and The lord your god will drive
Speaker 1: out those, nations before you, little by little and you
Speaker 1: will be unable to destroy them at once less the
Speaker 1: beast of the field become too. Numerous for You but
Speaker 1: The lord your god will deliver them, over to you

Speaker 1: and he will deliver their kings, under your hand and
Speaker 1: you will destroy their name. From under heaven no one
Speaker 1: shall be able to stand against you until you. Have
Speaker 1: destroyed them you shall burn the carved images of their.
Speaker 1: Gods with fire you shall not covet the silver or
Speaker 1: gold that, is on them nor take it from, your
Speaker 1: for yourselves lest you shall be, snared by it for
Speaker 1: it is an Abomination to The. Lord your god nor
Speaker 1: shall you bring an abomination into your house lest you
Speaker 1: be doomed to. Destruction like it you shall utterly detest
Speaker 1: it and. Utterly ignore, it abhor it for it isn't.
Speaker 1: A cursed thing so how many? People are greedy where
Speaker 1: if they found an idol that had, gold on it, they'd,
Speaker 1: be like oh, With real gold oh stick it, in your,
Speaker 1: jacket you know Like the old genie movies And the
Speaker 1: other aladdin's are the only they go to a treasure,
Speaker 1: room with treasure, don't take it and then boom that everything.
Speaker 1: Goes goes, haywire so uh let's look so REAL quick
Speaker 1: what i? Want to see? WHAT so abomination i don't
Speaker 1: want to know what abomination means. TO the world i
Speaker 1: don't want to know what bomination Means. In the bible
Speaker 1: so just so you know Abomination, in the bible abomination
Speaker 1: typically refers to something that is greatly detested or At,
Speaker 1: horned by god often a grave sin. Or evil practice
Speaker 1: it's a word used to highlight moral transgressions that are
Speaker 1: Particularly offensive, to god disgusting distinguishing. Them from others from
Speaker 1: other forms. Of sin okay the word abomination is Often
Speaker 1: using the bible to describe sins that are considered particularly
Speaker 1: grievous And. Offensive to god these, can include idolatry which
Speaker 1: is worshiping other gods or objects. His central Abomination In,
Speaker 1: the old testament sexual immorality, actions, like incest homosexuality and
Speaker 1: adultery are also. Described as abominations, Dishonesty, and, injustice deception
Speaker 1: fraud and oppressions are. Considered Abomination uncleanliness the bible also
Speaker 1: uses the term abomination to describe certain foods and, rituals
Speaker 1: deemed unclean ar, AGAINST in pride, a haughty spirit and
Speaker 1: an arrogant heart are also. Considered abominations, okay in essence
Speaker 1: the term Abomination in the bible is a powerful Way
Speaker 1: of highlighting god's disapproval of certain, behaviors and practices emphasizing
Speaker 1: their moral wrongness and the potential to serve for severe
Speaker 1: consequences for those who. Engage in them so very Braid
Speaker 1: translations The hebrew and greek words translated as abomination can
Speaker 1: be slight nuances and. Nuances and, meeting For example the
Speaker 1: hebrew word tav can both meet abomination and. Loathsome modern
Speaker 1: interpretnation while the specific Context of the bible, passage is
Speaker 1: important the concept of abomination can be understood today as
Speaker 1: referring to actions and attitudes that are deeply unjust and
Speaker 1: harmful And. Destruction to, GOD all right i just kind
Speaker 1: of want to go over that, for you guys, so
Speaker 1: we know and let's go ahead and Go back to
Speaker 1: so this one says the destruction Of idols in deuteronomy,
Speaker 1: seven twenty five you must burn up the carved images.
Speaker 1: Of their gods God instructs the israelites to destroy all
Speaker 1: forms of idolatry to. Maintain spiritual purity let's go ahead
Speaker 1: and go into teaching point or, Not teaching, points i'm.
Speaker 1: Sorry practical applications. Guard your heart just As the igular
Speaker 1: israelites were to. Avoid pagan influence we must guard our
Speaker 1: hearts against worldly temptations that can lead Us. Away, from
Speaker 1: god yes we need to avoid pagan. Influences. As well
Speaker 1: pagans there's. No, pagans nowadays yeah. There's definitely pagans. There's definitely, Pagans,
Speaker 1: BELIEVE me okay I know because i deal with people,
Speaker 1: in the industry, the podcast industry and people will, literally,
Speaker 1: Tell Me, hey josh, monday, you, Know whatever. Whatever WE'RE
Speaker 1: cool but i, am a, Pagan you Know and, then, i'm,
Speaker 1: like oh, okay You know and i'll still be cool
Speaker 1: to them because that's JUST the. Way i roll i'm just.
Speaker 1: Nice to everybody but at least they let me. Know
Speaker 1: up front so there's still, pagans out There and obviously
Speaker 1: i'm not praying with them or do anything that has,
Speaker 1: to Do spirituality but i'm still, nice To them AND
Speaker 1: i'm still i still. Pray for them i still, pray
Speaker 1: for them not to, not with them, but FOR them
Speaker 1: and i definitely try To tell them, god BLESS you
Speaker 1: and i do try to assist them if they need,
Speaker 1: help with, something you know they might have been going
Speaker 1: through something. In their life i'll be, there for, them
Speaker 1: you know and try to guide them and also send
Speaker 1: them Shows that when i'm Talking about the, bible and
Speaker 1: stuff just to try. To help, them but anyways the
Speaker 1: next one is going to be. Embrace your identity recognize
Speaker 1: and embrace your identity as a Chosen child of god
Speaker 1: living a Life that. Reflects his holiness THAT'S something that
Speaker 1: i think we should all, do for sure when we're out,
Speaker 1: in public okay AND there's people i. Talked about this We're. Representing.
Speaker 1: THE lord Okay, i, AM christian right i, have a
Speaker 1: podcast i Am pre. And i'm Teaching so when i'm,
Speaker 1: out in public, AND you know i, mean my wife
Speaker 1: She knows that i'm, a podcast host She Knows, that
Speaker 1: i'm christian SHE knows that I have. This Bible study
Speaker 1: so i'm actually like she could use, it against me believe,
Speaker 1: ME and say i thought you, were Mister holy mister.
Speaker 1: Bible study guy how could? You do this why? Would
Speaker 1: You do so it's like it's very important for me
Speaker 1: to MAKE sure that i recognize and embrace my identity
Speaker 1: as a Chosen child of god right and live a
Speaker 1: Life that reflects his. HOLE in it i need to
Speaker 1: be DOING that because i have somebody that's checks and,
Speaker 1: balances on me my wife. And. My kids right my.
Speaker 1: Kids know too, so, It's like hey i'm, kind of,
Speaker 1: like you know in A position where i got to
Speaker 1: Make sure that i'm doing, right for, Sure you know
Speaker 1: but we have another, five minutes here so let me
Speaker 1: see what. Else we Have trust, in god's Promises remember
Speaker 1: that god's. Faithfulness is unwavering i'm, gonna go ahead and
Speaker 1: stop screenshare because we're Done with the bible. Aspect of
Speaker 1: It trust. In god's Promises remember that god's. Faithfulness is
Speaker 1: unwavering trust in his promises and even even when. Circumstances,
Speaker 1: seem challenging yes you see all The stuff that god
Speaker 1: was promising, in that, CHAPTER promising saying i mean that
Speaker 1: is amazing because He's promising and. God cannot lie It's
Speaker 1: impossible for. God to lie he is not a man that.
Speaker 1: He should, lie and also like you don't need to
Speaker 1: add to The word of god because his. Words are
Speaker 1: pure Jesus, is The, way The. Truth the life? What
Speaker 1: is that what? Does that mean it's just everything that
Speaker 1: he's saying is one million percent going To happen because. God,
Speaker 1: cannot lie. Right very, Interesting pursue obedience Strive to, obey
Speaker 1: god's commands knowing that his blessings follow a. Life, of
Speaker 1: obedience yes so we kind of hit, on this already
Speaker 1: but it. Is so true couldn't. Be any, truer you,
Speaker 1: Know eliminate idols identify and remove any idols in your
Speaker 1: life that compete with Your. Devotion, to god okay there's
Speaker 1: things that we do that we don't Know, are against,
Speaker 1: god you know or maybe we dabble in certain things
Speaker 1: and we don't know what the word it. Originally came,
Speaker 1: from you know there's things out there like that people
Speaker 1: do that we're not taught the roots of those certain
Speaker 1: things that we, should probably, understand you know do some
Speaker 1: studies on, things like yoga do some studies, on you
