I mean, honestly, 61 00:03:20.560 --> 00:03:23.120 it's just amazing. And my other show, I'm starting to 62 00:03:23.159 --> 00:03:28.199 get more motivation. I literally was. I literally was getting 63 00:03:28.240 --> 00:03:36.120 to a point where I was feeling I was feeling overwhelmed, 64 00:03:37.039 --> 00:03:39.879 you know, because I was doing this show and the 65 00:03:39.919 --> 00:03:42.680 Wednesday service and then my show, and it just took 66 00:03:42.719 --> 00:03:44.960 a little bit for me to get remotivated. And I 67 00:03:45.000 --> 00:03:47.840 feel like I am remotivated now for my other show. 68 00:03:47.919 --> 00:03:51.199 This show I've been motivated. I lose no motivation for 69 00:03:51.280 --> 00:03:54.120 this show because this is what I've been driving and 70 00:03:54.199 --> 00:03:57.919 living for, teaching the word. Okay, so this show, I 71 00:03:57.960 --> 00:04:00.800 am motivated. My other show, I started kind of having 72 00:04:00.800 --> 00:04:03.960 it like this, this feeling like, ah man, I've done 73 00:04:04.039 --> 00:04:08.319 so much conspiracies already, should I keep going? But it's like, 74 00:04:08.400 --> 00:04:10.560 you know what, God is motivating me and giving me 75 00:04:10.599 --> 00:04:12.360 more guests. What can I do? And booked all the 76 00:04:12.400 --> 00:04:16.839 way till July. I'm also obviously I'm gonna continue that show. 77 00:04:17.079 --> 00:04:21.720 People are hitting me up and I prayed about it 78 00:04:21.759 --> 00:04:25.639 and I told God, like, hey, I didn't have anybody booked. Okay. 79 00:04:25.920 --> 00:04:28.319 I was to the point where I was like, I'm 80 00:04:28.360 --> 00:04:32.120 just gonna continue releasing, you know, my older Sunday service 81 00:04:32.160 --> 00:04:35.120 and then maybe start releasing Wednesday service on my show, 82 00:04:35.560 --> 00:04:37.360 and just kind of seeing what it's gonna do. And 83 00:04:37.399 --> 00:04:40.279 then now now people have been hitting me up and 84 00:04:40.279 --> 00:04:42.040 I'm booked all the way till them with July. So 85 00:04:42.720 --> 00:04:44.759 you know, God works in mysterious ways, but it looks 86 00:04:44.800 --> 00:04:47.399 like he wants me to continue my Josh Monday Christian 87 00:04:47.480 --> 00:04:51.240 conspiracy podcast show. And you know what, we all are human, 88 00:04:51.639 --> 00:04:56.120 and we all end up with times of hardship. Sometimes 89 00:04:56.199 --> 00:04:57.759 we feel like maybe we're not spending enough time with 90 00:04:57.800 --> 00:05:00.720 our kids. I do put a lot of research into 91 00:05:00.759 --> 00:05:03.759 this show, Okay. I mean I'm literally putting probably eight 92 00:05:03.800 --> 00:05:08.480 hours of research in for the New Testament study, eight 93 00:05:08.519 --> 00:05:12.439 hours of time in the Old Testament study. Yet sometimes 94 00:05:12.480 --> 00:05:16.639 maybe sometimes six hours of studying sometimes more, you know, 95 00:05:17.240 --> 00:05:19.959 when I'm doing like when I have it like down down, 96 00:05:20.000 --> 00:05:22.040 when you guys can hear when I'm on like I'm 97 00:05:22.079 --> 00:05:24.399 on it, I probably put in a good eight to 98 00:05:24.439 --> 00:05:31.879 ten hours of studying these chapters, you know. So that's 99 00:05:31.920 --> 00:05:33.399 the thing, you know, So it takes a long a 100 00:05:33.399 --> 00:05:36.120 lot of time, a lot of time, and I just 101 00:05:36.160 --> 00:05:39.519 want to make sure that I'm giving time to my children, 102 00:05:40.040 --> 00:05:45.000 time to my wife, and enough time to God. Besides this, 103 00:05:45.720 --> 00:05:49.120 you know, we just juggle. But anyways, Hey, I just 104 00:05:49.120 --> 00:05:51.240 want to let you guys know I'm motivated, I'm ready 105 00:05:51.319 --> 00:05:54.199 to go, and I'm very happy to be here tonight 106 00:05:55.000 --> 00:06:00.560 teaching you guys Deuteronomy fourteen. So let's oh, now, I 107 00:06:00.600 --> 00:06:03.160 just want to let you guys know some of this stuff. 108 00:06:03.240 --> 00:06:08.519 This is this is a sermon from Moses to the 109 00:06:08.560 --> 00:06:10.720 people that are going to enter the Promised Land. So 110 00:06:10.759 --> 00:06:13.120 what is what is Moses going to do? He is 111 00:06:13.240 --> 00:06:18.959 going to uh reinnerate what the people before, the generation 112 00:06:19.079 --> 00:06:22.000 before them already knew, the parents already knew. He needs 113 00:06:22.079 --> 00:06:29.319 to reinnerate so that they understand what God wants from them. Obviously, 114 00:06:29.399 --> 00:06:31.519 if all the people that were supposed to go to 115 00:06:31.600 --> 00:06:35.519 the Promised Land went to the Promised Land, Moses wouldn't 116 00:06:35.560 --> 00:06:38.480 have to have this sermon, or maybe he would. Maybe 117 00:06:38.519 --> 00:06:40.279 people would be forgetting and maybe he would have to 118 00:06:40.279 --> 00:06:43.439 redo it. I don't know, but he's just making sure 119 00:06:43.759 --> 00:06:48.879 that before he passes away he drops all the knowledge 120 00:06:48.879 --> 00:06:52.199 on these people that he can all the instruction for 121 00:06:52.319 --> 00:06:55.199 them before they enter the Promised Land, so that when 122 00:06:55.199 --> 00:06:59.399 he get when he's on his final day, he could say, hey, 123 00:06:59.439 --> 00:07:02.399 I was a good faithful servant Lord, you know. And 124 00:07:02.439 --> 00:07:06.839 he's just following God's command to do this. So so 125 00:07:06.959 --> 00:07:15.279 let's go ahead and read Deuteronomy fourteen, chapter one. You 126 00:07:15.360 --> 00:07:18.319 are the children of the Lord your God. You shall 127 00:07:18.360 --> 00:07:21.759 not cut yourselves nor shave the front of your head 128 00:07:22.240 --> 00:07:25.879 for the dead. For you are holy people to the 129 00:07:25.920 --> 00:07:28.920 Lord your God, and the Lord has chosen you to 130 00:07:29.000 --> 00:07:32.879 be a people for yourselves, a special treasure above all 131 00:07:33.040 --> 00:07:36.279 people who are on the face of the earth. So 132 00:07:36.600 --> 00:07:42.759 why is he telling him this specific command? Well, the 133 00:07:43.040 --> 00:07:47.519 he to be holy means to be set apart. So 134 00:07:47.920 --> 00:07:52.279 obviously there's pagans and people like from Egypt and that 135 00:07:52.399 --> 00:07:55.879 they that they lived with that are worldly people that 136 00:07:55.959 --> 00:07:59.600 we're doing pagan's things. And there's also people in the 137 00:07:59.680 --> 00:08:02.639 Land of Canaan, in the land that are about to 138 00:08:02.680 --> 00:08:08.079 take over, that are doing pagan practices. So God is 139 00:08:08.160 --> 00:08:14.680 telling them the Israelites these commands. Okay, what happens sometimes 140 00:08:14.879 --> 00:08:24.240 is we end up reading Deuteronomy and we apply these 141 00:08:24.279 --> 00:08:28.759 things to ourselves and say, if this makes them holy, 142 00:08:29.000 --> 00:08:33.440 then this has to make us holy. But see he 143 00:08:33.480 --> 00:08:35.679 says it right here, for you are a holy people 144 00:08:36.039 --> 00:08:37.840 to the Lord, your God. The Lord has chosen you 145 00:08:37.919 --> 00:08:40.919 to be people for your for himself a special treasure 146 00:08:40.960 --> 00:08:42.679 above all people who are on the face of the earth. 147 00:08:43.240 --> 00:08:50.639 So he is specifically speaking to the Israelites right now, saying, 148 00:08:51.200 --> 00:08:57.200 do not shave your head for the dead. What does that? 149 00:08:57.279 --> 00:08:59.440 What does that even mean? Well, what's happening back then 150 00:08:59.879 --> 00:09:03.120 is these Pagans were shaving their head for the dead, 151 00:09:03.440 --> 00:09:06.120 and he's telling them do not do that. They were 152 00:09:06.159 --> 00:09:12.919 also cutting themselves. Does that sound familiar? Yes, right now, 153 00:09:13.559 --> 00:09:16.200 there are people and you know what, if you ever 154 00:09:16.240 --> 00:09:18.000 had this in the past or anything, I'm not trying 155 00:09:18.000 --> 00:09:20.840 to talk bad about you or anything, but it's some 156 00:09:20.879 --> 00:09:25.320 people have this problem with cutting themselves. And you see 157 00:09:25.480 --> 00:09:28.000 way God was warning them back then. It was even 158 00:09:28.039 --> 00:09:31.559 happening back then, you shall not cut yourselves nor shave 159 00:09:31.600 --> 00:09:33.840 the front of your head for the dead. So obviously 160 00:09:33.840 --> 00:09:36.480 they were cutting themselves for the dead and shaving the 161 00:09:36.519 --> 00:09:38.879 front of their head for the dead. And God wants 162 00:09:38.879 --> 00:09:42.720 them to be holy, which means to be set apart 163 00:09:43.240 --> 00:09:48.600 from the world, or set apart from the pagans, or 164 00:09:48.639 --> 00:09:52.720 are the ones that were worshiping other gods, doing rituals 165 00:09:53.240 --> 00:09:57.320 and sacrificing the idols that are not the Lord God 166 00:09:57.919 --> 00:10:02.679 Yahweh okay Hua or Yahweh. People pronounce it in different ways, 167 00:10:03.519 --> 00:10:05.519 so that's what was going on there. He is speaking 168 00:10:05.559 --> 00:10:10.159 specifically to the Israelites telling him not to do this 169 00:10:10.759 --> 00:10:14.799 because the reason why is because the people around them 170 00:10:14.879 --> 00:10:27.600 were doing this. Okay, clean and unclean meat, you shall not. 171 00:10:27.799 --> 00:10:31.720 This is Deuteronomy fourteen, verse three. You shall not eat 172 00:10:31.759 --> 00:10:35.600 any detestable thing. These are the animals which you may eat, 173 00:10:35.799 --> 00:10:39.120 the ox, the sheep, the goat, the deer, the gazelle, 174 00:10:39.200 --> 00:10:42.759 the road deer, the wild goat, the mountain goat, the antelope, 175 00:10:42.799 --> 00:10:46.080 and the mountain sheep. And you may eat every animal 176 00:10:46.200 --> 00:10:49.799 with cloven hooves, having the hoof split in two parts, 177 00:10:50.320 --> 00:10:54.399 and that choose the cud among the animals. Nevertheless, of 178 00:10:54.440 --> 00:10:56.720 those that chew the cud, of those cloven hoofs, you 179 00:10:56.759 --> 00:10:59.919 shall not eat, such as these, the camel, the hair, 180 00:11:00.600 --> 00:11:03.600 and the rock high racks, for they chew the cud, 181 00:11:03.679 --> 00:11:06.639 but do not have cloven hoofs. They are unclean for you. 182 00:11:06.759 --> 00:11:10.440 Also the swine or the pig is unclean for you 183 00:11:10.480 --> 00:11:13.720 because it has cloven hoofs yet does not chew the cud. 184 00:11:14.159 --> 00:11:18.879 You shall not eat their flesh or touch their dead carcasses. Okay, 185 00:11:19.440 --> 00:11:25.120 let's put a pause there. Okay. Now people are going, oh, 186 00:11:26.000 --> 00:11:32.279 what about bacon, what about Vietnamese pork and rice? We 187 00:11:32.480 --> 00:11:34.559 love that stuff, you know, people love it, you know, 188 00:11:35.159 --> 00:11:38.759 And uh, what I would say to that, I mean, 189 00:11:39.240 --> 00:11:43.200 there is health benefits to not eat pig. We've found 190 00:11:43.279 --> 00:11:46.840 lately that pigs do not have sweat glands. Okay, So 191 00:11:46.919 --> 00:11:49.440 there's a reason why God is telling them not to 192 00:11:49.480 --> 00:11:51.960 eat these animals. Is he telling him not to eat 193 00:11:52.000 --> 00:11:54.240 these animals because he wants to make all these rules 194 00:11:54.240 --> 00:11:56.559 and he's like, you know, I don't want you to 195 00:11:56.600 --> 00:11:59.679 eat these animals because these are the rules that I'm 196 00:11:59.720 --> 00:12:04.200 stay Okay, no, because there's something behind each one of 197 00:12:04.240 --> 00:12:11.960 these commandments. Okay. Also, if you don't cook pig all 198 00:12:11.960 --> 00:12:15.639 the way, then it could be deadly and back then 199 00:12:15.679 --> 00:12:18.600 if they get a disease like that, then you know, 200 00:12:18.759 --> 00:12:22.679 you don't have kaiser to go to right away, and 201 00:12:22.720 --> 00:12:26.279 they don't have medicine and they don't have ivs in 202 00:12:26.360 --> 00:12:29.639 case you get dehydrated, and there is a lot of 203 00:12:29.679 --> 00:12:33.159 like disease, and and and if you're if you're not 204 00:12:33.279 --> 00:12:37.080 like if you don't have pig like also and some 205 00:12:37.120 --> 00:12:43.000 of these other animals stored correctly, it could cause sicknesses 206 00:12:43.039 --> 00:12:48.919 that that are not good. Okay, so I think there's 207 00:12:49.000 --> 00:12:55.120 health benefits behind this. Also, the pigs they eat like trash, garbage. 208 00:12:55.159 --> 00:12:57.360 I mean, they'll eat anything, you know what I mean. 209 00:12:57.559 --> 00:12:59.399 They'll eat the corn that's been on the floor for 210 00:12:59.519 --> 00:13:03.840 like months, the late old corn, the eat food, trash, whatever. 211 00:13:03.840 --> 00:13:05.360 I don't have picks. I don't know exactly what the e 212 00:13:05.480 --> 00:13:11.000 but I'm just saying so am so there's reasons behind this. 213 00:13:11.720 --> 00:13:14.519 But uh, you know, I'll just tell you what it 214 00:13:14.559 --> 00:13:19.519 says in Mark seven versus eighteen through twenty three. This 215 00:13:19.559 --> 00:13:24.799 is something in the New Testament referring to unclean animals. Okay, 216 00:13:24.879 --> 00:13:30.039 so this is uh, let's hold on Mark seven eighteen 217 00:13:30.120 --> 00:13:33.720 through twenty three. I just want to pull it up 218 00:13:33.759 --> 00:13:37.080 on here because it'll be a lot easier for me 219 00:13:37.799 --> 00:13:44.320 to tell if this is Jesus speaking. This is very important. Yeah, 220 00:13:44.360 --> 00:13:46.960 it looks like it is, uh, eighteen through twenty three. 221 00:13:47.039 --> 00:13:54.039 Let's see, yes, okay, eighteen, yes, Okay, let's read this now. 222 00:13:55.120 --> 00:14:01.120 Mark seven eighteen through twenty three. So he's okay, I'll 223 00:14:01.120 --> 00:14:05.519 start from seventeen. Actually, Mark seventeen, seven seventeen, when he 224 00:14:05.559 --> 00:14:08.159 had entered a house away from the crowd, his disciples 225 00:14:08.200 --> 00:14:11.080 asked him concerning the parable. So we said to them, 226 00:14:11.399 --> 00:14:14.200 are you thus without understanding? Also do you not perceive 227 00:14:14.240 --> 00:14:17.720 what whatever enters a man from outside cannot defile him, 228 00:14:18.080 --> 00:14:21.639 because it does not enter his heart but his stomach, 229 00:14:22.000 --> 00:14:25.639 and has eliminated this, purifying all foods. And he said, 230 00:14:26.000 --> 00:14:28.519 what comes out of it of a man defiles a 231 00:14:28.600 --> 00:14:33.519 man from For from within, out of the heart of 232 00:14:33.559 --> 00:14:40.360 a man proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders, thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, ludus, 233 00:14:40.360 --> 00:14:44.799 and evil eye, blasphemy, pride. All these evil things come 234 00:14:44.879 --> 00:14:50.639 from within and defile a man. Okay, So I'll go 235 00:14:50.679 --> 00:14:55.639 a little further back, it says Mark seven fourteen. Let 236 00:14:55.679 --> 00:14:57.919 me just read that. He says, when he had called 237 00:14:57.960 --> 00:15:00.720 all the multitudes to himself, he said to them, hear me, 238 00:15:00.799 --> 00:15:03.120 everyone to understand. There is nothing that enters a man 239 00:15:03.159 --> 00:15:06.240 from the outside which can defile him. But the things 240 00:15:06.279 --> 00:15:08.799 which come out of him, those are the things that 241 00:15:08.919 --> 00:15:12.240 defile the man. If anyone hears to hear, let let 242 00:15:12.399 --> 00:15:16.120 him hear. Which is interesting because on the last month, 243 00:15:16.200 --> 00:15:19.120 last week I was talking to you guys, it says here, 244 00:15:19.279 --> 00:15:23.639 oh Israel right, So yeah, so Jesus is saying here, 245 00:15:24.279 --> 00:15:29.080 what do you not perceive that whatever enters a man 246 00:15:29.120 --> 00:15:33.240 from outside cannot defile him? Okay, I just want to 247 00:15:33.240 --> 00:15:38.320 tell you guys that. So that's what it's saying in 248 00:15:38.360 --> 00:15:41.519 the New Testament is Does that mean Jesus is saying, 249 00:15:41.559 --> 00:15:44.879 go eat pig? It's no problem. I'm not. He's just 250 00:15:44.919 --> 00:15:47.360 saying that it's not defiling you from the outside. So 251 00:15:48.039 --> 00:15:51.159 there's a reason why God is speaking specifically to these 252 00:15:51.240 --> 00:15:54.600 is Israelites about this. Now, are we supposed to eat pig? Now? On? 253 00:15:55.639 --> 00:15:58.799 I couldn't tell you one hundred percent. Okay, even though 254 00:15:58.799 --> 00:16:02.080 some people would say it's fine, God doesn't care anymore. 255 00:16:02.519 --> 00:16:04.320 I'm not going to tell you yes or no on 256 00:16:04.399 --> 00:16:08.960 that because I don't have a definitive answer for you. Okay. 257 00:16:09.399 --> 00:16:10.519 But if you. 258 00:16:10.519 --> 00:16:14.080 Feel convicted when you eat pig, if you eat bacon, 259 00:16:14.240 --> 00:16:16.840 or if you eat pork and rice, or you eat 260 00:16:16.840 --> 00:16:19.440 pork beans or whatever, and you feel defiled, and you 261 00:16:19.440 --> 00:16:21.519 feel like, hey, it's if you feel like the Holy 262 00:16:21.559 --> 00:16:23.320 spirit's convicting you, don't eat it. 263 00:16:23.639 --> 00:16:25.799 There's a reason for it. Okay, just letting you guys 264 00:16:25.879 --> 00:16:29.120 know that. So let's stop there real quick and let 265 00:16:29.159 --> 00:16:33.000 me just read my We're gonna just highlight that so 266 00:16:33.039 --> 00:16:36.679 I don't forget. So Deuteronomy fourteen to two states that 267 00:16:36.759 --> 00:16:38.840 for you are people holy to the Lord, your God, 268 00:16:39.039 --> 00:16:41.720 and the Lord has chosen you to be people for 269 00:16:41.840 --> 00:16:44.879 his prized possession, out of all peoples on the face 270 00:16:44.879 --> 00:16:48.240 of the earth. This verse underscores the theme of holiness 271 00:16:48.679 --> 00:16:52.919 and being set apart. That's exactly what I was talking about. 272 00:16:53.799 --> 00:16:56.960 He's asking he wants you to not do as the 273 00:16:57.000 --> 00:17:00.879 Pagans do. He wants the is Relights to do as 274 00:17:00.960 --> 00:17:03.639 God wants them to do, which makes them holy. What 275 00:17:03.679 --> 00:17:11.440 does holy mean to be? Set heart? Okay? Dietary laws 276 00:17:14.559 --> 00:17:20.920 Verses three through twenty one outline specific dietary restrictions, emphasizing 277 00:17:20.920 --> 00:17:23.480 clean and nuclean animals. These laws were meant to distinguish 278 00:17:23.559 --> 00:17:28.359 the Israelites from surrounding nations. So it's another thing it's 279 00:17:28.519 --> 00:17:33.559 meant for the Israelites at that time, because all the 280 00:17:33.599 --> 00:17:37.359 other tribes that are around them are probably doing things 281 00:17:37.400 --> 00:17:40.680 with these animals that are not good, and they're probably 282 00:17:40.799 --> 00:17:44.200 eating all these animals, and they're probably sacrificing these animals 283 00:17:44.200 --> 00:17:47.160 to their gods. And God does not want them to 284 00:17:47.200 --> 00:17:50.400 get anything mixed together. He wants it to be peer 285 00:17:50.920 --> 00:17:53.519 and holy. He doesn't want to get them confused with 286 00:17:53.720 --> 00:17:55.720 any of the stuff that these pagans are doing. So 287 00:17:55.759 --> 00:18:03.000 God is setting them apart from the surrounding nations. Let's go. 288 00:18:03.400 --> 00:18:11.839 We'll continue to read Deuteronomy fourteen, chapter nine. These you 289 00:18:11.920 --> 00:18:14.400 may eat of all that are in the waters. You 290 00:18:14.440 --> 00:18:18.440 may eat all that have fins and scales. And whatever 291 00:18:18.599 --> 00:18:21.200 does not have fins and scales you shall not eat. 292 00:18:21.960 --> 00:18:27.839 It is unclean for you. Oh man, here's another thing. Now, 293 00:18:27.839 --> 00:18:39.559 we're like, what lobster, crab, shrimped, no octopus, several things 294 00:18:39.559 --> 00:18:44.279 that are that have no fins? Oh, that have no scales. Sorry, 295 00:18:45.319 --> 00:18:47.960 they have to have fins and scales. Most of the 296 00:18:48.000 --> 00:18:50.839 fish have fins, you know what I mean. But see 297 00:18:50.839 --> 00:18:53.640 some of the ones that don't have scales. They're bottom 298 00:18:53.720 --> 00:19:02.359 feeders and they're probably not good to eat. Okay, they're 299 00:19:02.440 --> 00:19:08.200 what clean the ocean shrimp? All these different things. You know, 300 00:19:08.319 --> 00:19:10.400 crab even crab eats everything that's on the bottom. So 301 00:19:11.960 --> 00:19:16.519 there's a reason behind this, Okay, there's a reason behind this. 302 00:19:18.440 --> 00:19:23.920 Besides the separating you from that, Besides separating the nations 303 00:19:24.559 --> 00:19:27.039 from the nations you know, from the other nations around them, 304 00:19:27.640 --> 00:19:29.839 besides separating the is your lights from the other nations 305 00:19:29.880 --> 00:19:34.559 around them. There's other health benefits to not eating these things. Now, 306 00:19:34.599 --> 00:19:37.519 eating fish with scales, I mean, if you eat fish 307 00:19:38.039 --> 00:19:39.960 minus there's so much mercury in the water. Now. But 308 00:19:40.039 --> 00:19:43.200 besides that eating fish, if you had a fish diet, 309 00:19:43.680 --> 00:19:46.200 fish a lot of fish, a little bit of rice, 310 00:19:46.400 --> 00:19:47.839 a lot of fish, a little bit of rice, like 311 00:19:47.839 --> 00:19:52.240 a Mediterranean diet. The Mediterranean diet is like what makes 312 00:19:52.279 --> 00:19:57.240 people live the longest. Okay, there's like a blue I 313 00:19:57.240 --> 00:19:59.319 don't know what it's called. See, I wish my mind 314 00:19:59.359 --> 00:20:00.920 was fresh right now. See I'm doing a night show. 315 00:20:00.960 --> 00:20:03.839 Sometimes my mind's not as fresh at night. But it's 316 00:20:03.880 --> 00:20:08.240 like the blue zone. And that's all usually Mediterranean food, 317 00:20:08.279 --> 00:20:12.359 the tomatoes, the lettuce, the fish, the rice, you know, 318 00:20:14.279 --> 00:20:17.440 the goat. You know, they eat all these the Mediterranean 319 00:20:17.480 --> 00:20:21.039 food that is super healthy for you. That the cheese 320 00:20:21.519 --> 00:20:26.440 coat cheese and all this stuff. Right, So if you 321 00:20:26.559 --> 00:20:30.680 notice that diet actually is very very healthy for you, 322 00:20:31.720 --> 00:20:36.400 the diet we eat right now is in America is 323 00:20:36.480 --> 00:20:46.039 absolutely terrible for you. So yeah, it's a it's a 324 00:20:47.000 --> 00:20:49.079 there's so there's just letting you guys know, there's certain 325 00:20:50.799 --> 00:20:54.160 there's certain reasons behind this about being holy, and I 326 00:20:54.160 --> 00:20:58.720 think there's also some help benefits to paying attention to this. Okay, okay, dud, 327 00:20:58.720 --> 00:21:02.400 don't want to be fourteen eleven. All clean birds you 328 00:21:02.400 --> 00:21:06.640 may eat, but these you shall not eat. Which, hey, 329 00:21:06.680 --> 00:21:09.440 good thing. The eagle, because the bald eagle is endangered here, 330 00:21:09.480 --> 00:21:11.960 so we eat eagle. We're gonna be done anyway. The eagle, 331 00:21:12.000 --> 00:21:15.759 the vulture, the buzzard, the red kite, the falcon, the 332 00:21:15.880 --> 00:21:21.000 kite after their kinds, every raven after its kind, the ostrichs, 333 00:21:21.039 --> 00:21:24.920 the short eared owl, the seagull, and the hawk after 334 00:21:24.960 --> 00:21:31.559 their kinds, the little owl, the screen owl, the white owl, 335 00:21:31.759 --> 00:21:35.880 the jack draw, the carrion, vulture, the fisher owl, the stork, 336 00:21:36.200 --> 00:21:38.480 the hair on after its kind, and the hopie and 337 00:21:38.559 --> 00:21:42.799 the bat. The bat that's where COVID came from. Isn't it? 338 00:21:44.240 --> 00:21:47.400 Good thing? We're not eating bats? No, I'm just kidding. Guess. Also, 339 00:21:47.480 --> 00:21:50.599 creeping thing that flies is unclean for you. They shall 340 00:21:50.640 --> 00:21:53.519 not be eaten, but he will tell you what you 341 00:21:53.599 --> 00:21:56.519 can eat the clean birds. But listen. So we have 342 00:21:56.640 --> 00:21:58.400 all these things out here, A lot of them are 343 00:21:59.359 --> 00:22:03.400 you know, they're eating dead carcasses. You know. Uh, some 344 00:22:03.440 --> 00:22:06.720 of these are eating dead carcasses. Not saying all of them, 345 00:22:06.720 --> 00:22:10.359 but some of them. Right, So a lot of us 346 00:22:10.359 --> 00:22:13.400 aren't looking, you know, craving seagull Anyway, I don't really 347 00:22:13.400 --> 00:22:14.920 crave to eat an owl. If I see an owl, 348 00:22:14.960 --> 00:22:17.640 I'm not like I want lunch, you know, unless I 349 00:22:17.720 --> 00:22:19.799 was on like an episode of a loon and I'm 350 00:22:19.799 --> 00:22:22.680 out there with the bow and arrow and aal as 351 00:22:22.720 --> 00:22:26.240 a ten and I'm starving, then they're gonna be like, 352 00:22:26.240 --> 00:22:29.279 who cares? But there's two They're just gonna eat it 353 00:22:29.319 --> 00:22:32.880 whatever they can, you know. Uh. I don't know if 354 00:22:32.880 --> 00:22:34.960 you guys ever watch alone, but you see there they 355 00:22:35.039 --> 00:22:37.480 see something fly up, they're like, oh my god, this 356 00:22:38.400 --> 00:22:40.720 and they're just starving and they're shaking because they're so hungry, 357 00:22:40.759 --> 00:22:44.119 and they're just they get got it and then oh 358 00:22:44.119 --> 00:22:45.759 I can't. They have to try to find it. They 359 00:22:45.759 --> 00:22:47.640 feel like you know, sometimes they lose their arrow. They're like, 360 00:22:47.720 --> 00:22:53.559 oh so anyways, so yeah, you see that, and uh yeah, 361 00:22:53.599 --> 00:22:59.400 So we got to understand that there's a different different 362 00:23:00.720 --> 00:23:02.960 clean and unclean. So let's find out the clean birds 363 00:23:02.960 --> 00:23:07.720 that you can eat you shall not eat. Oh I'm sorry. 364 00:23:08.759 --> 00:23:10.839 Oh it says you may eat all clean birds. So 365 00:23:10.880 --> 00:23:14.079 anything that's not mentioned here is okay to eat chicken, 366 00:23:15.039 --> 00:23:18.960 you know, turkey, the things that we normally eat. The 367 00:23:19.000 --> 00:23:20.480 only thing that we add that I have to cut 368 00:23:20.480 --> 00:23:23.119 out of my diet, which I eat once in a 369 00:23:23.160 --> 00:23:31.359 great while, would be pork. And my wife is tie 370 00:23:31.359 --> 00:23:38.200 and Filipino, right, and like we like Asian food, so 371 00:23:38.279 --> 00:23:42.039 sometimes they have pork in their Asian food, especially the 372 00:23:42.039 --> 00:23:45.599 Filipino food, and they that's something that I have to 373 00:23:45.640 --> 00:23:47.680 i'd have to. I mean, it's not something major I 374 00:23:47.720 --> 00:23:49.359 need to cut on my diet. Mostly what I eat 375 00:23:49.400 --> 00:23:52.480 is beef. I'll tell you guys what I do real quick. 376 00:23:52.519 --> 00:23:54.240 I mean, I know, sorry, I don't want to get sidetracks, 377 00:23:54.319 --> 00:23:59.079 but four days a week I eat lean ninety three 378 00:23:59.640 --> 00:24:02.960 lean ground beef. I put it inside of a pan, 379 00:24:03.240 --> 00:24:06.119 a big pan like this big. You can only see 380 00:24:06.119 --> 00:24:07.920 it on video probably, but it's it's big. And then 381 00:24:07.960 --> 00:24:11.839 I put ground beef, I put broccoli, I put cauliflour, 382 00:24:11.960 --> 00:24:14.599 and I put carrots a bunch of them, like thirty 383 00:24:14.640 --> 00:24:17.640 two ounces of that stuff. Mix it all together with 384 00:24:17.720 --> 00:24:19.799 an onion, and I cook it for the week. And 385 00:24:19.839 --> 00:24:23.119 that's what I eat throughout the week, four days a week. 386 00:24:24.480 --> 00:24:27.559 Excuse me. So that's no carbs. All I'm eating is that. 387 00:24:30.039 --> 00:24:33.599 And then so that's about three pounds or four pounds 388 00:24:33.640 --> 00:24:37.240 of meat I eat in four days. One pound of 389 00:24:37.240 --> 00:24:40.400 meat basically a day sounds like a lot, but you know, 390 00:24:40.440 --> 00:24:42.160 when you lift weights, then you want to get the protein. 391 00:24:42.240 --> 00:24:44.880 But that's something I do and I and it's been 392 00:24:44.920 --> 00:24:48.279 helping me tremendously. And then on the weekends, I try 393 00:24:48.319 --> 00:24:50.599 to eat as best as I can. So I do 394 00:24:50.680 --> 00:24:56.240 like a sixty forty split, sixty percent clean thirty maybe 395 00:24:56.400 --> 00:24:58.839 you know, seventy percent clean, thirty percent unclean. That's kind 396 00:24:58.880 --> 00:25:02.680 of where it works. Not unclean like this, but not 397 00:25:02.799 --> 00:25:05.519 unclean like the Bible is saying, but uncleaned, as in 398 00:25:06.079 --> 00:25:07.920 I was eating clean. And then something, you know, on 399 00:25:07.920 --> 00:25:11.200 the weekend, I eat like a little less clean, you know, 400 00:25:11.279 --> 00:25:14.480 like but yeah, once in a great, great while maybe 401 00:25:14.519 --> 00:25:16.599 once a month or every two or three months will 402 00:25:16.599 --> 00:25:19.680 have bacon, but I could probably switch that to turkey bacon. 403 00:25:19.759 --> 00:25:21.200 So that's all I have to get out of my life, 404 00:25:22.000 --> 00:25:25.119 is just that I don't have him been eating any 405 00:25:25.119 --> 00:25:27.960 short eared owl. I don't know about you, guys. Let's continue, 406 00:25:28.039 --> 00:25:30.559 dud want to be fourteen Verse twenty one. You shall 407 00:25:30.599 --> 00:25:36.960 not eat anything that dies of itself, because why because 408 00:25:36.960 --> 00:25:40.480 it probably had a disease. Okay, you may not give 409 00:25:40.519 --> 00:25:43.480 it to the alien or which means the person that's 410 00:25:43.559 --> 00:25:47.000 the outsider, who is within your gates, that he may 411 00:25:47.039 --> 00:25:50.039 eat it. You may give it to the alien who 412 00:25:50.079 --> 00:25:52.079 is within your gates, that he may eat it. Or 413 00:25:52.119 --> 00:25:54.599 you may sell it to a foreigner. For you are 414 00:25:54.759 --> 00:25:57.079 holy people, the Lord your God. You shall not boil 415 00:25:57.200 --> 00:26:01.960 a young goat in it's mother's milk. Interesting, and then 416 00:26:02.079 --> 00:26:03.799 I don't know if it gets to that, but it 417 00:26:03.799 --> 00:26:08.640 always talks about don't drink blood, don't eat the blood. 418 00:26:09.039 --> 00:26:12.160 Life is in the blood, right, So we got to 419 00:26:12.240 --> 00:26:16.240 understand that. Okay, So now we got through the dietary laws, 420 00:26:18.440 --> 00:26:20.680 Let's see what I can Okay. The chapter begins with 421 00:26:20.720 --> 00:26:24.440 instructions or on clean and unclean animals. What the Israelites 422 00:26:24.480 --> 00:26:26.759 are permitted to forbid it to eat. This section emphasizes 423 00:26:26.759 --> 00:26:31.960 the importance of holiness and obedience to God's commands. And 424 00:26:32.000 --> 00:26:35.839 we are prohibited against pagan practices, mourning practices. That's what 425 00:26:35.920 --> 00:26:38.240 that is. So in Deuteronomy fourteen one through two, I 426 00:26:38.279 --> 00:26:40.319 forgot to tell you guys about this. The Israelites are 427 00:26:40.319 --> 00:26:42.240 starting not to cut thisself. Their shaved their foreheads. This 428 00:26:42.240 --> 00:26:45.039 prohibition is rooted in their identity as holy people chose them. 429 00:26:45.319 --> 00:26:51.000 The Hebrew term quadote emphasizes they're set apart status. So 430 00:26:51.079 --> 00:26:54.559 that's what it is. It's pagan mourning practices when they're 431 00:26:54.599 --> 00:26:56.440 shaving their head for the dead. That's what it is. 432 00:26:59.319 --> 00:27:00.960 Let's see, we are are right here now, we're in 433 00:27:01.079 --> 00:27:08.039 tithing right So the chapter and then Deuteronomy fourteen three 434 00:27:08.119 --> 00:27:10.839 through eight. The chapter outline onlines which an animals are 435 00:27:10.880 --> 00:27:13.119 considered clean and unclean, which you read. Clean animals include 436 00:27:13.119 --> 00:27:15.119 these that shew the cut and have a split hoof. 437 00:27:15.160 --> 00:27:18.839 The Hebrew word to whore is used for clean, indicating 438 00:27:18.920 --> 00:27:24.519 purity and suitability for consumption. Permissible sea creatures. Only sea 439 00:27:24.519 --> 00:27:28.000 creatures with fins scales are deemed clean. This distinction is 440 00:27:28.160 --> 00:27:32.880 part of meaning maintaining ritual purity, as indicated in the 441 00:27:32.880 --> 00:27:41.319 Hebrew term snappier for fins and quissette wait cascasset for 442 00:27:41.480 --> 00:27:45.960 scales forbidden birds. These birds are often associated with scavenging, 443 00:27:46.319 --> 00:27:51.079 which is contrary to the purity laws. All flying insects 444 00:27:51.079 --> 00:27:54.000 are considered unclean, except those that are specifically permitted. This 445 00:27:54.119 --> 00:28:01.000 maintains the theme for distinguishing between clean and unclean. Okay, 446 00:28:03.359 --> 00:28:07.680 prohibiting eating carcasses. The Hebrew term nevellah refers to carcasses, 447 00:28:07.680 --> 00:28:12.920 emphasizing the importance of consuming only what is ritually clean. Okay. 448 00:28:13.400 --> 00:28:15.759 Now we're going to be in tithing instructions, so let's 449 00:28:15.799 --> 00:28:22.720 go ahead, and let's go ahead and start there. Let's 450 00:28:22.720 --> 00:28:28.839 get back to tithing in generosity. So Deuteronomy fourteen, verse 451 00:28:28.880 --> 00:28:34.680 twenty two tithing principles. You shall truly tithe all the 452 00:28:34.799 --> 00:28:37.640 increase of your grain that the field produces year by year, 453 00:28:38.039 --> 00:28:41.079 and you shall eat before the Lord your God, in 454 00:28:41.160 --> 00:28:43.839 the place where he chooses to make his name. Abide 455 00:28:44.000 --> 00:28:46.799 the tithe of your grain and your new wine, and 456 00:28:46.839 --> 00:28:49.799 your oil of the firstborn of your herds and your flocks, 457 00:28:50.079 --> 00:28:53.200 that you may learn to fear the Lord your God always. 458 00:28:53.559 --> 00:28:56.079 But if the journey, if the journey is too long 459 00:28:56.160 --> 00:28:58.279 for you, so that you are not able to carry 460 00:28:58.319 --> 00:29:00.640 the tithe, or the place with the Lord your God 461 00:29:00.640 --> 00:29:02.759 has chosen to put his name is too far from you. 462 00:29:03.079 --> 00:29:05.000 When the Lord God has blessed you, then you shall 463 00:29:05.039 --> 00:29:07.480 exchange it for money. Take the money in your hand 464 00:29:07.839 --> 00:29:10.039 and go to the place which your Lord or God chooses, 465 00:29:10.279 --> 00:29:13.680 and you shall spend that money for whatever your heart desires, 466 00:29:13.720 --> 00:29:16.599 for oxen or sheep, for wine or similar drink, whatever 467 00:29:16.599 --> 00:29:19.480 your heart desires. You shall eat there before the Lord 468 00:29:19.480 --> 00:29:22.079 your God, and you shall rejoice. You and your household. 469 00:29:22.079 --> 00:29:25.119 You shut up for sake the levite who's within your gates, 470 00:29:25.160 --> 00:29:27.599 for he has no partner inheritance with you. So there's 471 00:29:27.599 --> 00:29:30.319 always going to be a reminder. Because the levite has 472 00:29:30.359 --> 00:29:34.759 no inheritance and doesn't have a flock of sheep, doesn't 473 00:29:34.799 --> 00:29:39.039 have vegetables growing where he can eat. You have to 474 00:29:39.160 --> 00:29:42.640 remember the Levites. That's why you have to tie. Because 475 00:29:42.680 --> 00:29:45.240 the Levites don't have money, they don't have a job. 476 00:29:45.480 --> 00:29:48.200 They're constantly doing what God needs them to do, and 477 00:29:48.200 --> 00:29:50.480 they're focused on that. They don't need to be focused 478 00:29:50.480 --> 00:29:54.279 on farming and sheep and this. They need to be 479 00:29:54.279 --> 00:29:56.640 focused on what God needs them to focus on. That's 480 00:29:56.680 --> 00:29:59.720 why he keeps reminding them to not forsake the Levite 481 00:29:59.720 --> 00:30:01.599 who's within your gates, where he has no part or 482 00:30:01.640 --> 00:30:08.640 inheritance with you. So Tithing in Generosity Verses twenty two 483 00:30:08.640 --> 00:30:11.799 through twenty nine discussed the practice of tithing, highlighting the 484 00:30:11.799 --> 00:30:16.519 importance of giving back to God and supporting the Levites, foreigners, orphans, 485 00:30:16.559 --> 00:30:20.279 and widows, which we're going to read about right now, 486 00:30:20.599 --> 00:30:24.240 and Deteronomy fourteen twenty eight, it's going to talk about 487 00:30:24.599 --> 00:30:28.960 the poor and the widows and the levites. At the 488 00:30:29.119 --> 00:30:31.400 end of every third year, you shall bring out the 489 00:30:31.480 --> 00:30:33.960 tithe of your produce at the year and store it 490 00:30:34.039 --> 00:30:36.440 up within your gates. And the Levite, because he has 491 00:30:36.519 --> 00:30:40.319 no portion nor inheritance with you, and the stranger and 492 00:30:40.359 --> 00:30:43.799 the fatherless and the widow are within your gates, may 493 00:30:43.880 --> 00:30:46.880 come and eat and be satisfied that the Lord your 494 00:30:46.920 --> 00:30:52.359 God may bless you in all the work of your hand, 495 00:30:52.440 --> 00:30:59.960 which you do. Okay, so yeah, So this chapter emphasizes 496 00:31:00.400 --> 00:31:05.680 that obedience to God's commands brings blessing and sustenance, reinforcing 497 00:31:05.720 --> 00:31:11.519 the covenant relationship between God and his people. Okay, we 498 00:31:11.720 --> 00:31:17.640 need to understand that. And so practical applications that we 499 00:31:17.680 --> 00:31:21.680 could place in our life is living set apart. Consider 500 00:31:21.720 --> 00:31:23.839 how you can live a life that is distinct and 501 00:31:24.000 --> 00:31:27.440 wholly in today's world. You see, we have to live apart. 502 00:31:27.519 --> 00:31:29.839 We have to live do not be of this world. 503 00:31:29.960 --> 00:31:34.440 Jesus says that, okay, and that is not only just 504 00:31:34.519 --> 00:31:37.240 like about how you act, but it's also how you think, 505 00:31:37.559 --> 00:31:42.839 and it's how you perceive yourself, how you There's so 506 00:31:43.000 --> 00:31:45.680 much you know that the world does that we should 507 00:31:45.680 --> 00:31:50.559 not do. Also, I think we should understand that there's 508 00:31:50.640 --> 00:31:52.880 things in the world they try to push on us, 509 00:31:53.200 --> 00:31:57.160 which I've talked about before. Let's think about it, like 510 00:31:57.440 --> 00:32:02.000 the Big Bang theory, evolution for some people. I know 511 00:32:02.039 --> 00:32:04.480 some people believe in a globe and helocentricy, but I 512 00:32:04.480 --> 00:32:06.839 think that's another thing that we should probably read the 513 00:32:06.880 --> 00:32:10.480 Bible and consider see what it says about cosmology. There's 514 00:32:10.559 --> 00:32:13.799 things that we need to understand about, like abortion. There's 515 00:32:13.839 --> 00:32:16.839 things that we need to understand about, like so much 516 00:32:17.079 --> 00:32:19.799 that the Bible teaches that the world tries to push 517 00:32:19.839 --> 00:32:22.880 on us, you know, transgenderism, all this other stuff they 518 00:32:22.880 --> 00:32:26.960 try to push. There's just a ton I don't need 519 00:32:26.960 --> 00:32:35.160 to mention all of them, but adultery, divorce, so much stuff, Pride, covaging, 520 00:32:35.759 --> 00:32:44.240 coveting people's stuff, becoming rich, greed, selfishness, self righteousness, there's 521 00:32:44.319 --> 00:32:47.920 so much stuff that we need to be set apart. Okay, 522 00:32:48.240 --> 00:32:50.319 we need to be holy in today's world, and it 523 00:32:50.400 --> 00:32:57.519 is so difficult because there's so much stuff pulling on 524 00:32:57.799 --> 00:33:01.599 your spirit to be come like the world. So we 525 00:33:01.680 --> 00:33:04.559 have to be stronger than ever. So what I would 526 00:33:04.559 --> 00:33:07.880 tell you, guys, is this kind of Bible study or 527 00:33:08.119 --> 00:33:11.599 being in a Bible study is vastly important right now. 528 00:33:11.920 --> 00:33:14.680 So whatever study you're in, if you're in mind, thank God, 529 00:33:14.720 --> 00:33:17.480 I really appreciate you, you know, But we need to understand 530 00:33:17.480 --> 00:33:20.680 that we need to reflect on our identity as followers 531 00:33:20.680 --> 00:33:23.559 of Christ. Reflect on our identity as followers of Christ, 532 00:33:23.920 --> 00:33:26.359 reflect on what we're doing on a day to day basis. 533 00:33:26.640 --> 00:33:29.720 Reflect on the decisions that we're making from time to time. 534 00:33:29.759 --> 00:33:33.160 You know, sometimes we might be making decisions for ourselves 535 00:33:33.200 --> 00:33:35.880 and not making decisions that are God's will. So let's 536 00:33:35.920 --> 00:33:38.880 pray and let's make sure that we are including God 537 00:33:38.920 --> 00:33:42.200 in our decisions, and then it will help do I 538 00:33:42.519 --> 00:33:45.680 one hundred percent, every single day, every single moment, make 539 00:33:45.720 --> 00:33:49.240 a decision that I think God would love. No. I 540 00:33:49.359 --> 00:33:52.640 do my very best to make sure that I'm following 541 00:33:52.680 --> 00:33:55.960 God and his will. But sometimes I am human, just 542 00:33:56.000 --> 00:34:01.039 like you guys, So I don't I don't expect you 543 00:34:01.160 --> 00:34:06.359 to to just like you know, snap of a finger. 544 00:34:06.519 --> 00:34:10.840 Just be holy all the time. It just takes time, maturity, 545 00:34:11.400 --> 00:34:18.119 the Bible, praying, having spiritual weapons ready at your disposal, 546 00:34:18.440 --> 00:34:21.760 having Bible versus ready at your disposal, and it takes 547 00:34:21.760 --> 00:34:26.480 a lot. So mindful consumption, yeah, be mindful of what 548 00:34:26.559 --> 00:34:33.039 you consume. Okay. This says while the specific dietary laws 549 00:34:33.039 --> 00:34:35.880 are not binding for Christians, the principle of being mindful 550 00:34:35.880 --> 00:34:41.440 about what we consume physically and spiritually remains relevant. So 551 00:34:42.480 --> 00:34:48.199 what does that mean? Well, if I go and I 552 00:34:48.360 --> 00:34:55.760 go and drink alcohol instead of drinking water, it's going 553 00:34:55.800 --> 00:35:01.679 to cloud your mind. Right, It's going to cause you 554 00:35:01.760 --> 00:35:06.320 to probably fight with your wife. It's probably gonna cause 555 00:35:06.360 --> 00:35:08.519 you to not read the Bible. It's probably gonna cause 556 00:35:08.559 --> 00:35:10.719 you to go out and do things that you probably 557 00:35:10.719 --> 00:35:12.679 didn't want to do. It could cause you to get 558 00:35:12.679 --> 00:35:15.800 a dui. It could cause people to see that you're drunk, 559 00:35:15.800 --> 00:35:17.639 and then you try to preach the gospel to them 560 00:35:17.639 --> 00:35:20.840 and they're like, ah, he's a drunkard. You know. I 561 00:35:20.880 --> 00:35:24.239 know some people that cannot go one day without drinking, 562 00:35:24.559 --> 00:35:27.679 and they are constantly going to the liquor store and 563 00:35:27.719 --> 00:35:31.000 they cannot stop because if they stop, they have withdraws 564 00:35:31.039 --> 00:35:33.519 and they're gonna they feel like they're gonna die, and 565 00:35:33.559 --> 00:35:37.360 they actually literally could die. So this kind of stuff 566 00:35:37.440 --> 00:35:40.199 is very important what you physically consume. And that's just 567 00:35:40.239 --> 00:35:44.440 like one thing. If you're physically consuming marijuana, smoke, if 568 00:35:44.440 --> 00:35:50.559 you're physically consuming psychedelics, if you're physically consuming cocaine, speed 569 00:35:50.840 --> 00:35:54.679 or whatever, meth or any of these things, you are 570 00:35:55.039 --> 00:35:58.480 separating yourself from God. Then you need to make sure 571 00:35:58.480 --> 00:36:02.480 that you just quit doing that. Spiritually, what are we 572 00:36:03.079 --> 00:36:05.280 you know, also, what are we consuming like on a 573 00:36:05.880 --> 00:36:09.480 listening to podcast level, or what are we consuming when 574 00:36:09.519 --> 00:36:11.639 it comes to watching TV? What are we consuming when 575 00:36:11.639 --> 00:36:15.000 it comes with our eyes? Are we consuming pornography? Are 576 00:36:15.000 --> 00:36:19.559 we consuming Instagram butts? Are we consuming romance novels that 577 00:36:19.559 --> 00:36:22.039 that are you're reading about people doing lustful things and 578 00:36:22.039 --> 00:36:24.679 then you're like getting excited. Are you are you doing 579 00:36:24.719 --> 00:36:27.800 certain things like that? You know, it's like what are 580 00:36:27.800 --> 00:36:31.599 you consuming? What is your mind consuming? We have to 581 00:36:31.639 --> 00:36:34.400 be careful because when you're reading the Word of God 582 00:36:34.480 --> 00:36:37.920 and then you're watching that kind of stuff, those kind 583 00:36:37.920 --> 00:36:40.880 of pictures, they they're stuck in your mind. So you 584 00:36:40.880 --> 00:36:42.760 could be reading the Word of God and then all 585 00:36:42.760 --> 00:36:46.000 you're thinking about the devil keeps putting that picture in 586 00:36:46.000 --> 00:36:48.760 your mind of what you looked at, and then you're like, oh, 587 00:36:49.039 --> 00:36:50.760 it's hard for me to read the Bible today. It's 588 00:36:50.800 --> 00:36:52.480 gonna have to cut kick back on that real quick, 589 00:36:52.519 --> 00:36:55.280 you know, because you have the devils like using that 590 00:36:55.679 --> 00:36:59.760 putting that in your face. So be careful what we 591 00:37:00.440 --> 00:37:08.199 physically consume and spiritually consume. It's very relevant today. Generosity 592 00:37:08.239 --> 00:37:11.360 and stewardship. Reflect on your own practices of giving and 593 00:37:11.400 --> 00:37:14.199 how you can support these in need within your community. Yes, 594 00:37:14.199 --> 00:37:16.400 it's very important to support those that are in need 595 00:37:17.079 --> 00:37:19.960 for sure. And then you know, tithing at your church 596 00:37:20.280 --> 00:37:21.840 or you know, as long as everything's going to the 597 00:37:21.920 --> 00:37:26.719 right place, you know, stuff like that, obedience to God. 598 00:37:26.880 --> 00:37:29.679 Evaluate areas in your life where you may need to 599 00:37:29.800 --> 00:37:33.679 align more closely with God's commands, trusting that his ways 600 00:37:33.840 --> 00:37:37.800 lead to blessings. Obedience to God. I've always said this 601 00:37:37.880 --> 00:37:40.639 on a lot of my podcasts and I'll say it again, 602 00:37:41.320 --> 00:37:46.159 Pray for obedience. Obedience is a way to show God 603 00:37:46.159 --> 00:37:50.159 that you love him, following his commandments and his ways, 604 00:37:50.679 --> 00:37:53.800 and you know, doing his will shows him that you 605 00:37:53.920 --> 00:37:57.320 love him. Okay, it's a way of worship. People think 606 00:37:57.360 --> 00:37:59.360 that worship is just having your hands up at church 607 00:37:59.360 --> 00:38:04.280 when someone singing some rock song. And I'm not saying 608 00:38:04.320 --> 00:38:06.800 that's not worshiping God. And if you could worship God 609 00:38:06.840 --> 00:38:09.599 in your own way, but one way to worship God 610 00:38:09.760 --> 00:38:15.239 is obedience. Did you know that that is one major 611 00:38:15.280 --> 00:38:19.519 way to show God. To worship God through your obedience, 612 00:38:22.119 --> 00:38:27.320 trusting His ways leads to blessings for sure. And let's 613 00:38:27.320 --> 00:38:30.400 see if I have anything provision for the needy. I 614 00:38:30.440 --> 00:38:34.880 have this in the notes, and what it says is 615 00:38:35.159 --> 00:38:37.880 every third year, the tie this store within the towns 616 00:38:38.320 --> 00:38:41.639 to support the levites, the foreigners, the orphans, and widows. 617 00:38:42.079 --> 00:38:46.480 This reflects the Hebrew concept of teza daka, or righteousness 618 00:38:46.480 --> 00:38:49.840 through social justice and care for the vulnerable. A few 619 00:38:49.920 --> 00:38:53.760 verses that additional scriptures that connect to this chapter would 620 00:38:53.760 --> 00:38:58.440 be first Peter two, verse nine. You are not chosen people, 621 00:38:58.440 --> 00:39:01.480 a royal priesthood, a holy nation, people of God's own possession, 622 00:39:01.559 --> 00:39:04.320 to proclaim the virtues of Him who called you out 623 00:39:04.320 --> 00:39:07.679 of darkness in the marvelous light. That's probably paraphrasing right there. 624 00:39:07.840 --> 00:39:09.960 I'm not going to the actual scripture, but it might 625 00:39:10.000 --> 00:39:11.559 be the actual scripture. I don't know if it's exact. 626 00:39:12.320 --> 00:39:15.639 Matthew five sixteen. In the same way, let your light 627 00:39:15.719 --> 00:39:18.519 shine before others, that you may see your good deeds 628 00:39:18.519 --> 00:39:23.719 and glorify your Father in heaven, Amen two Corinthians six seventeen. Therefore, 629 00:39:23.719 --> 00:39:26.599 come out from among them and be separate, says the Lord, 630 00:39:26.639 --> 00:39:32.400 touched no unclean thing, and I will receive you. All right. So, yeah, 631 00:39:32.400 --> 00:39:35.119 that was a really good chapter and a great review 632 00:39:35.280 --> 00:39:39.000 of what the Israelites needed to know. And I will 633 00:39:39.039 --> 00:39:41.639 click the chapter fourteen on here, and then we go 634 00:39:41.760 --> 00:39:44.559 up to the top and click the chapter fourteen on here. 635 00:39:45.559 --> 00:39:49.239 Debts canceled every seven years. This is something we went 636 00:39:49.280 --> 00:39:52.559 over in Leviticus, but we're gonna go over again. It 637 00:39:52.599 --> 00:39:56.400 looks like for some reason, my my internet was stripping. 638 00:39:56.559 --> 00:40:01.440 Hopefully it's going to be okay debts cancer every seven years. 639 00:40:01.559 --> 00:40:08.239 At the end of this is Deuteronomy fifteen, verse one. 640 00:40:08.840 --> 00:40:11.039 At the end of every seven years, you shall grant 641 00:40:11.079 --> 00:40:13.840 a release of debts. And this is This is the 642 00:40:13.880 --> 00:40:16.599 form of the release. Every creditor who has lent anything 643 00:40:16.639 --> 00:40:19.599 to his neighbor shall release it. He shall not require 644 00:40:20.239 --> 00:40:22.320 it of his neighbor or his brother. Because it is 645 00:40:22.320 --> 00:40:25.760 called the Lord's release of a foreigner. You may require it, 646 00:40:25.800 --> 00:40:28.599 but you shall give up your claim to what is 647 00:40:28.719 --> 00:40:32.880 owed by your brother, except when you may be no 648 00:40:33.000 --> 00:40:37.000 poor among you, except when they're except when there may 649 00:40:37.039 --> 00:40:39.159 be no poor among you. For the Lord will greatly 650 00:40:39.199 --> 00:40:41.880 bless you in the land which the Lord your God 651 00:40:41.880 --> 00:40:45.199 has given you to possess as an inheritance, only if 652 00:40:45.239 --> 00:40:47.559 you carefully obey the voice of the Lord your God 653 00:40:47.599 --> 00:40:51.639 to observe with care all his commandments which I command 654 00:40:51.679 --> 00:40:54.039 you today. For the Lord your God will bless you 655 00:40:54.719 --> 00:40:58.119 just as he promised you. You shall lend to many nations, 656 00:40:58.280 --> 00:41:02.039 but you shall not borrow. You shall reign over many nations, 657 00:41:02.360 --> 00:41:06.480 but you shall not reign, but they shall not reign 658 00:41:06.760 --> 00:41:11.840 over you. Interesting For your Lord God will bless you 659 00:41:11.880 --> 00:41:14.239 just as you promise. You shall not lend to many nations, 660 00:41:14.519 --> 00:41:18.440 but but you shall not borrow. You shall lend to 661 00:41:18.519 --> 00:41:22.079 many nations. So you can give too many nations, but 662 00:41:22.199 --> 00:41:27.320 not borrow from those nations. Why because those nations are 663 00:41:27.440 --> 00:41:30.360 pagan and what are you borrowing from them? Whatever you're 664 00:41:30.400 --> 00:41:40.039 borrowing or probably unholy, So understand that. So uh. And 665 00:41:40.079 --> 00:41:42.159 then this verse is also talking about every seven years 666 00:41:42.159 --> 00:41:45.039 a sabbath years proclaimed where debts are to be canceled, 667 00:41:45.079 --> 00:41:50.119 while leading where lending is encouraged God desires. God's desire 668 00:41:50.280 --> 00:41:52.960 is for there's to be no poor among the Israelites. 669 00:41:53.239 --> 00:41:55.599 He asserts them blessings if they obey the command making 670 00:41:55.639 --> 00:42:00.840 them lenders, not borrow borrowers to other nations. And then 671 00:42:00.880 --> 00:42:03.440 in verses one and two, the year of release describes 672 00:42:03.519 --> 00:42:06.880 the commandment to cancel debts every seven years. This practice 673 00:42:06.920 --> 00:42:09.960 underscores the importance of mercy to the prevents of perpetual poverty. 674 00:42:10.440 --> 00:42:13.480 At the end of every seven years, you must cancel debts. 675 00:42:13.519 --> 00:42:16.159 This is how it is to be done. Every creditor 676 00:42:16.400 --> 00:42:21.119 shall cancel the loan he has made to his fellow Israelites. 677 00:42:21.199 --> 00:42:24.199 Which is interesting because how long does it take for 678 00:42:24.320 --> 00:42:32.599 something to fall off your credit? Seven years. What it's 679 00:42:32.679 --> 00:42:34.880 kind of interesting, right, so every seven years, like let's 680 00:42:34.880 --> 00:42:37.639 say if you have like a something, let's say you 681 00:42:39.440 --> 00:42:43.079 have a collections on your account, like your credit score, 682 00:42:43.159 --> 00:42:46.480 then it falls off after seven years, which is very 683 00:42:46.480 --> 00:42:49.119 interesting because it kind of seems to line up to this, 684 00:42:49.159 --> 00:42:56.079 doesn't it. Generosity to the poor? Excuse me, oh, before 685 00:42:56.079 --> 00:42:59.519 we go there? Four to six. Yeah, God's provision and 686 00:42:59.559 --> 00:43:02.559 promise emphasizes that obedience to God's commands will lead to 687 00:43:02.559 --> 00:43:05.920 his blessing and provision. There will be no poor among 688 00:43:05.920 --> 00:43:08.960 you because the Lord will surely bless you in the land. 689 00:43:09.000 --> 00:43:12.000 The Lord your God is giving you the possesses, giving 690 00:43:12.000 --> 00:43:17.000 you to possess as an inheritance. And then generosity to 691 00:43:17.039 --> 00:43:19.760 the poor is next. It's going to be Deuteronomy fifteen, 692 00:43:20.599 --> 00:43:24.719 verse seven. They make sure I'm not missing anything here 693 00:43:29.159 --> 00:43:32.960 that goes all the way to Deudonomy fifteen events the 694 00:43:33.039 --> 00:43:36.000 year release describes, okay, so the year release, and Deuteronomy 695 00:43:36.000 --> 00:43:39.360 one and two describes the commandment of the year of release, 696 00:43:39.440 --> 00:43:43.400 known as Shemtah. Every seventh year, debts are to be canceled. 697 00:43:43.440 --> 00:43:48.039 The Hebrew root for release is shematah, which signifies letting 698 00:43:48.039 --> 00:43:51.039 go or release. The passage states, at the end of 699 00:43:51.079 --> 00:43:53.199 every seven years, you must cancel debts. This is how 700 00:43:53.239 --> 00:43:55.639 it is to be done. Every critaitor shall cancel alone. 701 00:43:56.400 --> 00:43:59.320 It is made to its fellow Israelite. So it's talking 702 00:43:59.360 --> 00:44:01.639 about brothers, right. That's why it says brothers. It means 703 00:44:01.639 --> 00:44:09.079 the fellow Israelite and blessings from obedience. Doudonanomy Be fifteen 704 00:44:09.159 --> 00:44:11.719 four through six promises blessings for obedience to this command. 705 00:44:11.719 --> 00:44:13.719 This past emphasized that there will be no poor among 706 00:44:13.800 --> 00:44:16.519 the Israelites if they obey God's commands. He's saying, if 707 00:44:16.519 --> 00:44:20.039 you obey his commandments, there will be no poor here, 708 00:44:20.679 --> 00:44:23.360 and as He has blessed them abundantly. The text states, 709 00:44:23.400 --> 00:44:25.480 there will be no poor among you, however, because the 710 00:44:25.480 --> 00:44:27.360 Lord will surely bless you with the land that the 711 00:44:27.400 --> 00:44:32.360 Lord of God has given you to possess as an inheritance. Okay, 712 00:44:32.480 --> 00:44:36.039 let's look at open handed generosity. Okay, let's check out 713 00:44:36.039 --> 00:44:40.400 the law and wait generosity to the poor, and I 714 00:44:40.440 --> 00:44:45.800 will go right up here to verse seven through eleven. 715 00:44:45.960 --> 00:44:50.599 So let's go Dodonomy fifteen, verse seven. If there is 716 00:44:50.760 --> 00:44:54.400 among you a poor man of your brethren within any 717 00:44:54.440 --> 00:44:56.039 of the gates of your land, which the Lord your 718 00:44:56.119 --> 00:44:58.920 God has given. You shall not hearden your heart nor 719 00:44:59.039 --> 00:45:02.519 shut your hand from your poor brother. But you shall 720 00:45:02.559 --> 00:45:05.440 open your hand wide to him, and willingly lend him 721 00:45:05.480 --> 00:45:08.920 sufficient for his need, whatever he needs. Beware less there 722 00:45:09.039 --> 00:45:11.519 be a wicked thought in your heart, saying the seventh 723 00:45:11.599 --> 00:45:14.639 year the year of releases at hand, and your eye 724 00:45:14.719 --> 00:45:19.599 be evil, because your poor brother you given, you give 725 00:45:19.679 --> 00:45:22.199 him nothing, and he cry out to the Lord against you, 726 00:45:22.519 --> 00:45:25.800 and it becomes and it becomes sin among you. You 727 00:45:25.840 --> 00:45:28.559 shall surely give to him. And your heart should not 728 00:45:28.679 --> 00:45:31.400 be grieved when you give to him. Because for this 729 00:45:31.440 --> 00:45:34.360 thing the Lord your God will bless you. And all 730 00:45:34.400 --> 00:45:36.800 your works and all which you have put in your 731 00:45:36.840 --> 00:45:39.800 hand for the poor will never cease from the land. 732 00:45:39.800 --> 00:45:42.639 Therefore I command you, saying, you shall open your hand 733 00:45:42.719 --> 00:45:45.840 wide to your brother, to your poor and your needy, 734 00:45:45.920 --> 00:45:52.239 and your land. Okay, So this one is call for 735 00:45:52.320 --> 00:45:55.599 your open hearted generosity towards the poor, highlighting the need 736 00:45:55.679 --> 00:45:58.280 for compassion and action. If there is a poor man 737 00:45:58.320 --> 00:46:01.039 among your brothers, you shall not harden your heart or 738 00:46:01.079 --> 00:46:08.639 shut your hand to your poor brother. Okay. So let's 739 00:46:08.760 --> 00:46:18.199 see what's down here in my notes places events open handed. Okay, 740 00:46:18.360 --> 00:46:22.519 here's this. Verses seven through eleven encourage generosity towards the poor. 741 00:46:22.519 --> 00:46:24.599 The Israeites are instructed not the heart in their hearts 742 00:46:24.880 --> 00:46:26.960 or close their hands against their poor brothers. The Hebrew 743 00:46:26.960 --> 00:46:31.400 word for open is patak, meaning to open or loosen. 744 00:46:31.639 --> 00:46:34.039 The passage includes if there's a poor man among you. Okay, 745 00:46:34.079 --> 00:46:35.480 we already read that, so we don't need to go 746 00:46:35.480 --> 00:46:40.960 over that. Next, we're gonna talk about bond servants. Okay, 747 00:46:41.119 --> 00:46:46.679 bond servants. A bond servant means a bond servant or 748 00:46:46.760 --> 00:46:50.480 bond slave is a slave that after the seven years 749 00:46:50.920 --> 00:46:53.639 is up and wants to stay with their master. Okay, 750 00:46:53.679 --> 00:46:57.039 that's what that means. That's what bond servant means. Let's 751 00:46:57.039 --> 00:47:03.679 go there. Deuteronomy fifteen. Deuteronomy fifteen, we're gonna go to 752 00:47:04.000 --> 00:47:08.159 teaching points. Make sure that's pulled up. If your brother, 753 00:47:08.280 --> 00:47:11.039 this is Dounonomy fifteen twelve. If your brother, a Hebrew 754 00:47:11.079 --> 00:47:13.280 man or Hebrew woman, is sold to you and serves 755 00:47:13.280 --> 00:47:15.960 you six years, then in the seventh year you shall 756 00:47:16.039 --> 00:47:18.320 let him go free from you. And when you send 757 00:47:18.400 --> 00:47:21.039 him away free from you, you shall not let him 758 00:47:21.079 --> 00:47:25.440 go away empty handed. You shall supply him liberally from 759 00:47:25.440 --> 00:47:29.440 your flock, from their threshing floor, and from your wine press. 760 00:47:29.760 --> 00:47:32.159 From what the Lord your God has blessed you with 761 00:47:32.440 --> 00:47:36.320 you shall give to him. You shall remember when you 762 00:47:36.360 --> 00:47:38.440 were a slave in the land of Egypt, and your 763 00:47:38.440 --> 00:47:41.039 Lord God redeemed you. Therefore, I command you to do 764 00:47:41.079 --> 00:47:44.440 this thing today. Let's stop there, so listen to what 765 00:47:44.480 --> 00:47:48.639 he's saying. He's saying that they serve the slaves serve 766 00:47:48.679 --> 00:47:51.360 you for six years. The seventh year, you let him go. 767 00:47:51.800 --> 00:47:55.599 And what do you do? You provide them with flock. 768 00:47:56.159 --> 00:48:00.360 You and it says you provide them liberally from your 769 00:48:00.360 --> 00:48:02.360 flock and threshing floor, from your white press. So you 770 00:48:02.360 --> 00:48:04.760 don't let them go empty handed. You show them you 771 00:48:04.800 --> 00:48:08.599 appreciate their work that they've done for you. Also, they're 772 00:48:08.639 --> 00:48:12.920 just like God redeemed. You redeem them. Remember that you 773 00:48:12.960 --> 00:48:15.199 were a slave. So when you become a slave owner 774 00:48:15.639 --> 00:48:17.559 of these people that owe you a debt or however 775 00:48:17.599 --> 00:48:20.519 it works, you don't sit there and treat him like crap, 776 00:48:21.480 --> 00:48:24.159 you know, because remember you were once a slave in 777 00:48:24.199 --> 00:48:27.480 the land of Egypt and the Lord redeemed you. He 778 00:48:27.519 --> 00:48:33.199 wants them to remember Okay, that makes so much sense. 779 00:48:33.239 --> 00:48:35.000 I don't know if it makes a lot of sense 780 00:48:35.039 --> 00:48:36.760 to you, but it makes so much sense to me. 781 00:48:37.960 --> 00:48:41.079 Deuteronomy fifteen, verse sixteen. And if it happens that he 782 00:48:41.119 --> 00:48:42.800 says to you, I will not go away from you 783 00:48:42.840 --> 00:48:45.280 because he loves you in your house, since he prospers 784 00:48:45.320 --> 00:48:48.440 with you, then you shall take an all and thrust 785 00:48:48.440 --> 00:48:50.760 it through his ear at the door, and he shall 786 00:48:50.800 --> 00:48:54.679 be your servant forever. Also to your female servant, you 787 00:48:54.719 --> 00:48:57.719 shall do likewise. It shall not seem hard to you 788 00:48:57.800 --> 00:49:01.039 when you send him away free from you. He has 789 00:49:01.119 --> 00:49:05.039 been worth double hired servant and serving you six years. 790 00:49:05.320 --> 00:49:07.840 Then the Lord your God will bless you in all 791 00:49:08.079 --> 00:49:11.199 that you do. That's what I talked about. For the 792 00:49:11.320 --> 00:49:16.559 bond servant, that's somebody that loved the master, or you 793 00:49:16.599 --> 00:49:19.239 know the Master. You know, and honestly, guys, I know, 794 00:49:19.280 --> 00:49:23.000 we guys think, oh, certain slavery is terrible. Do you 795 00:49:23.119 --> 00:49:26.960 understand that all of us are slaves to something? Right now? 796 00:49:27.639 --> 00:49:30.639 I am a slave to my employer. You might not 797 00:49:30.800 --> 00:49:33.719 think you are, but let me tell you something. If 798 00:49:33.800 --> 00:49:37.000 you don't show up for three days, you're gonna be fired, 799 00:49:37.079 --> 00:49:39.280 and your life is gonna be held until you find 800 00:49:39.360 --> 00:49:42.480 unemployment if you can get it, or if you get fired. 801 00:49:42.519 --> 00:49:45.639 I mean, I mean if you quit, if you quit 802 00:49:45.679 --> 00:49:47.480 the job, then you're not gonna be able to get unemployment. 803 00:49:47.719 --> 00:49:50.159 But you are definitely a slave to something, whether it's 804 00:49:50.199 --> 00:49:53.639 your car payment, your house payment, your mortgage, your credit 805 00:49:53.639 --> 00:50:01.320 card debt, whatever. We are slaves to something, and our 806 00:50:01.360 --> 00:50:04.719 employer is just like the master. Besides, it's the employer, 807 00:50:04.960 --> 00:50:09.239 right and we show up forty hours a week, maybe fifty, 808 00:50:09.400 --> 00:50:11.800 sometimes sixty, depending on what kind of job you have. 809 00:50:11.920 --> 00:50:13.719 But I'm a slave to my system. Right now, I 810 00:50:13.800 --> 00:50:17.920 have a water system. And if I get called that said, 811 00:50:17.920 --> 00:50:20.880 there's an earthquake right now, and I'm off, you know, 812 00:50:20.960 --> 00:50:23.760 I'm off on Friday, Saturday, Sunday, right I'm off for 813 00:50:23.800 --> 00:50:26.440 three days. But if there's an earthquake, I got to 814 00:50:26.480 --> 00:50:29.760 go in. I'm an emergency employee. If there's an earthquake 815 00:50:29.760 --> 00:50:32.280 and there's a crack pipe or a bunch of crackpipes 816 00:50:32.360 --> 00:50:35.440 that water's blowing out of, then I have to be there. 817 00:50:36.840 --> 00:50:42.400 So I am definitely a slave to my job. I 818 00:50:42.440 --> 00:50:44.960 don't know about you, guys. I'm on call twenty four 819 00:50:44.960 --> 00:50:48.960 to seven, but I enjoy my job. I appreciate my job. 820 00:50:49.119 --> 00:50:52.159 I love my job. I appreciate that God is blessed 821 00:50:52.159 --> 00:50:55.239 you with the job. I appreciate the fact that I mean, 822 00:50:55.280 --> 00:50:57.559 I literally went to the military for the water treatment 823 00:50:57.599 --> 00:50:59.880 training so I could become a water treatment operator. And 824 00:51:00.000 --> 00:51:03.320 now I am here, ladies and gentlemen, a water treatment operator, 825 00:51:03.559 --> 00:51:06.039 a production operator. I am so happy to have a job. 826 00:51:06.239 --> 00:51:08.360 But I'm just letting you guys know that we are 827 00:51:08.400 --> 00:51:12.800 all slaves to something, even to this day. Okay. And 828 00:51:12.840 --> 00:51:14.840 we could choose to love our job like the bond 829 00:51:14.880 --> 00:51:17.360 servants love their masters, or we could choose to just go. 830 00:51:18.559 --> 00:51:21.000 But some of you might own your own business, okay, 831 00:51:21.000 --> 00:51:23.000 and so you might tell me I'm not a slave 832 00:51:23.039 --> 00:51:25.119 to that, but you're still a slave to here more 833 00:51:25.159 --> 00:51:27.800 we gets, aren't you. So anyways, just letting you guys know. 834 00:51:29.400 --> 00:51:33.119 Let's see voluntary servitude. Okay, that's something that's discussed in 835 00:51:33.199 --> 00:51:36.840 verses sixteen through seventeen, till my notes provide for the 836 00:51:36.880 --> 00:51:39.599 possibility of a slave choosing to remain with their master 837 00:51:39.760 --> 00:51:43.039 out of love, illustrating a relationship based on mutual respect 838 00:51:43.119 --> 00:51:46.920 and affection. So, yeah, we have this thing where we 839 00:51:46.960 --> 00:51:50.280 think about slavery like they like, you know, these people 840 00:51:50.639 --> 00:51:55.199 back in the seventeen hundreds and eighteen hundred, all this stuff, 841 00:51:55.239 --> 00:51:59.079 you know that they were doing too, African Americans and 842 00:51:59.159 --> 00:52:01.559 all that. So our perception of slavery is different, like 843 00:52:01.599 --> 00:52:03.760 what we would probably think, like nobody's ever going to 844 00:52:03.800 --> 00:52:07.320 remain with their master. They were swipping their people with whips. 845 00:52:08.559 --> 00:52:11.599 I don't think it was the same. Just letting you 846 00:52:11.639 --> 00:52:13.119 guys know. I don't think it was the same. You know. 847 00:52:13.159 --> 00:52:15.760 Obviously that's why there's bond servants and some people wanted 848 00:52:15.760 --> 00:52:18.840 to stay. And also these other you know, the way 849 00:52:18.880 --> 00:52:22.880 that they were, you know, the these other these slave 850 00:52:22.920 --> 00:52:24.880 owners that that were in America that they weren't they 851 00:52:24.880 --> 00:52:27.400 weren't doing that we're letting go free after seven years. 852 00:52:27.400 --> 00:52:29.920 They were just taking them as long as they wanted to, 853 00:52:30.000 --> 00:52:35.800 you know. So totally different. Okay, totally different, and just 854 00:52:35.920 --> 00:52:40.320 letting you guys know. So yeah, let's continue. We're going 855 00:52:40.400 --> 00:52:45.239 to go to Deuteronomy fifteen, verse nineteen. This is the 856 00:52:45.360 --> 00:52:51.800 law concerning firstborn animals. Before I go there, let me 857 00:52:51.920 --> 00:52:57.000 make sure I'm not so a fellow Hebrew Israelite who 858 00:52:57.039 --> 00:52:59.760 has become a servant due to debt or poverty is 859 00:52:59.800 --> 00:53:01.880 to be released in the seventh year. The Hebrew word 860 00:53:01.920 --> 00:53:05.719 for servant is eved, which can meant servant or slave. 861 00:53:05.800 --> 00:53:09.119 Your male servant and female servant. These these individuals who 862 00:53:09.199 --> 00:53:11.840 serve within a household are to be treated like with 863 00:53:11.960 --> 00:53:15.400 fairness and released in the sabbatical year. The Hebrew terms 864 00:53:15.719 --> 00:53:18.719 a ed or male servant a mob for female servant. 865 00:53:18.800 --> 00:53:21.519 So they're supposed to be treated with fairness, and they're 866 00:53:21.519 --> 00:53:24.119 supposed to be treated right. They're supposed to get fed, 867 00:53:24.119 --> 00:53:25.519 they're supposed to you know, they're not supposed to be 868 00:53:25.559 --> 00:53:30.000 treated poorly. They're they are working and they are assisting. 869 00:53:30.119 --> 00:53:32.920 But they're supposed to be treating them with fairness, which 870 00:53:33.280 --> 00:53:36.239 is something. You know. We have this odd thing about slavery. 871 00:53:36.280 --> 00:53:38.039 Obviously it was terrible and it was bad. I'm not 872 00:53:38.039 --> 00:53:40.480 saying it anything was good about it, but there was 873 00:53:40.519 --> 00:53:44.519 probably maybe some that were treating people hopefully with fairness. 874 00:53:44.559 --> 00:53:47.119 I don't know. I wasn't there, I wasn't alive. I 875 00:53:47.199 --> 00:53:49.000 have no idea. I think that some of the history 876 00:53:49.000 --> 00:53:53.519 that we learn is either sideways or it's it's it's 877 00:53:54.280 --> 00:53:57.880 probably pushed too much in one direction or less in 878 00:53:57.880 --> 00:53:59.519 one direction. I'm not sure, so I don't like to 879 00:53:59.559 --> 00:54:01.679 talk about it. I mean, I don't really know, so 880 00:54:01.719 --> 00:54:03.840 I don't want to talk about the cities of refuge. 881 00:54:03.920 --> 00:54:11.599 Deuteronomy fifteen the cities of refuge. Although not directly mentioned 882 00:54:11.599 --> 00:54:13.760 in this chapter, the concept of cities of retus is 883 00:54:13.840 --> 00:54:18.079 part of the border broader legal and social structure within 884 00:54:18.159 --> 00:54:21.159 which these laws operate. These cities provide a place of 885 00:54:21.159 --> 00:54:23.320 safety and a justice aligned with the themes of mercy 886 00:54:23.360 --> 00:54:31.599 and redemption found in Douronomy fifteen. Okay, cool, and so 887 00:54:31.840 --> 00:54:35.599 Deuteronomy fifteen eighteen. Here's something else that was in my notes. 888 00:54:36.000 --> 00:54:40.000 He encourages masters not to view the release of servants 889 00:54:40.000 --> 00:54:42.440 as a hardship, reminding them the value of the servants 890 00:54:42.559 --> 00:54:45.320 work do not regard as hardship. Right, So there's that. 891 00:54:45.440 --> 00:54:48.840 And then we're going to talk about the consecration of 892 00:54:48.880 --> 00:54:52.360 firstborn animals right now, So Verses nineteen through twenty three 893 00:54:52.480 --> 00:54:54.840 is going to go over the law concerning firstborn amimals. 894 00:54:55.239 --> 00:54:59.320 Let's go there. So it's Deuteronomy fifteen, verse nineteen. All 895 00:54:59.360 --> 00:55:02.519 the firstborn males that come from your herd and your flock, 896 00:55:02.559 --> 00:55:06.320 you shall sanctify to the Lord your God. You shall 897 00:55:06.559 --> 00:55:10.400 not work with the firstborn of your herd. You shall 898 00:55:10.719 --> 00:55:13.320 do no work with the firstborn of your herd, nor 899 00:55:13.440 --> 00:55:16.360 shear the firstborn of your flock. You and your household 900 00:55:16.400 --> 00:55:19.440 shall eat it before the Lord your God, year by year, 901 00:55:19.480 --> 00:55:22.559 in the place which the Lord chooses. But if there's 902 00:55:22.599 --> 00:55:26.119 a defect in it, if if it is lame or blind, 903 00:55:26.239 --> 00:55:28.639 or as any serious defect, you shall not sacrifice it 904 00:55:28.679 --> 00:55:30.800 to the Lord your God. You may eat it within 905 00:55:30.840 --> 00:55:33.840 your gates. The unclean. The clean person alike may eat 906 00:55:33.880 --> 00:55:36.760 it as if they were as if it were a 907 00:55:36.800 --> 00:55:40.719 gazelle or dear. Only you shall not eat its blood. 908 00:55:40.840 --> 00:55:45.000 You shall pour it on the ground like water. Okay, 909 00:55:45.159 --> 00:55:51.559 So here's an example. If you were having let's say, 910 00:55:51.840 --> 00:55:54.679 let's say you were having the governor of California, which 911 00:55:54.960 --> 00:55:56.719 I probably would never eat it with that guy, but 912 00:55:57.480 --> 00:56:01.400 that's probably a bad example. Let's say you're having dinner 913 00:56:01.480 --> 00:56:04.480 with President Trump and he's coming over to your house. 914 00:56:04.880 --> 00:56:07.920 Or let's say if you're in the military and uh, 915 00:56:09.159 --> 00:56:11.639 the sergeant major of the army was coming over, you know, 916 00:56:11.760 --> 00:56:14.280 and and he comes over and all of a sudden, 917 00:56:14.320 --> 00:56:16.679 you're like, hey, I'm gonna cook you this sheep, and 918 00:56:16.719 --> 00:56:20.400 the sheep's coming up, limping with one eye like, and 919 00:56:20.440 --> 00:56:22.079 you're like, that's the sheep I chose. And you have 920 00:56:22.079 --> 00:56:23.800 all these great sheep around you, and you choose that 921 00:56:23.840 --> 00:56:27.280 one to feed your sergeant major or the president or whatever. 922 00:56:27.280 --> 00:56:29.199 You're probably not gonna choose that one. So don't choose 923 00:56:29.199 --> 00:56:32.679 that one for God. Okay. If it's limping like with 924 00:56:32.719 --> 00:56:35.840 one eye coming over and it looks all defected, God 925 00:56:35.880 --> 00:56:38.960 doesn't want that. God wants your best. And that's the 926 00:56:39.000 --> 00:56:42.119 same thing you would do if you had someone you're 927 00:56:42.159 --> 00:56:45.239 trying to impress, your boss, your ceo, whatever's coming over 928 00:56:45.280 --> 00:56:48.199 for dinner. You're not gonna grab this beat up lamb 929 00:56:48.280 --> 00:56:50.239 with one eye that's that's limping over here. You know, 930 00:56:50.280 --> 00:56:52.960 looks defective. Nah, And you're probably gonna grab the best 931 00:56:52.960 --> 00:56:55.679 of your flock. So that's what God wants. What more 932 00:56:55.760 --> 00:56:58.880 is God than your boss or ceo, President Trump or 933 00:56:59.159 --> 00:57:02.280 what what the heck? Not even saying all those people 934 00:57:02.280 --> 00:57:04.599 should opress you anyways, But I'm just making an example 935 00:57:04.719 --> 00:57:11.360 that makes sense. Okay, So versus nineteen instructor israeites to 936 00:57:11.360 --> 00:57:13.199 consecrate the first more males of their herds and the 937 00:57:13.239 --> 00:57:19.599 flocks of the Lord. There's no work, which we talked about. 938 00:57:19.840 --> 00:57:23.039 Let's check the teaching points. They really didn't say much 939 00:57:23.039 --> 00:57:27.840 on that portion. Okay, didn't really have much on that. Okay, 940 00:57:31.039 --> 00:57:36.119 all right, cool, perfect, And we can go over voluntary 941 00:57:36.119 --> 00:57:38.039 servitude we already talked about. We can go over some 942 00:57:39.079 --> 00:57:45.000 practical applications that's going to be UH practice forgiveness. Consider 943 00:57:45.039 --> 00:57:47.599 how you can apply the principle of debt forgiveness in 944 00:57:47.639 --> 00:57:51.280 your own life, whether they're whether through financial means or 945 00:57:51.320 --> 00:57:57.960 relational forgiveness. Cultivate generosity. Look for opportunities to be generous 946 00:57:58.000 --> 00:58:01.679 with your resources, time, and talents, especially towards those in need. 947 00:58:02.480 --> 00:58:06.840 Definitely I agree with all that reflect on God's provision. 948 00:58:06.880 --> 00:58:09.639 Trusting God's promise to provide for your needs as you 949 00:58:09.719 --> 00:58:13.800 obey his commands, live out his principles. Okay, God will 950 00:58:13.800 --> 00:58:17.639 provide for your needs. Okay, just obey his commands and 951 00:58:18.599 --> 00:58:22.239 your life will be blessed. You know why because you 952 00:58:22.280 --> 00:58:30.920 know what happens. You know what happens with What happens 953 00:58:30.960 --> 00:58:35.400 with with you is when you're disobeying God, it ends 954 00:58:35.480 --> 00:58:38.840 up causing major problems in your life. If you're with 955 00:58:38.960 --> 00:58:42.400 your wife, and you're treating her and you're loving her 956 00:58:42.400 --> 00:58:45.079 like Christ love the Church, like the Bible says, and 957 00:58:45.119 --> 00:58:48.199 you're being obedient to God. You're living God's will. You're 958 00:58:48.199 --> 00:58:51.559 reading the Bible to your family. You're being great guy. 959 00:58:51.880 --> 00:58:53.760 You're taking care of your wife. You're being a servant, 960 00:58:53.800 --> 00:58:56.360 You're doing everything you could do, doing the dishes, taking 961 00:58:56.400 --> 00:58:59.000 care of you know, every need. And your wife's taking 962 00:58:59.000 --> 00:59:00.760 care of all your needs. And he's doing all the 963 00:59:00.760 --> 00:59:03.280 stuff that she's supposed to do. Your life is running 964 00:59:03.679 --> 00:59:06.400 like a machine, you know what I mean. And it's 965 00:59:06.480 --> 00:59:09.239 it's it just does it's just great things. But when 966 00:59:09.280 --> 00:59:13.039 you're disobeying God's commands, not living God's will and doing 967 00:59:13.079 --> 00:59:15.599 your own thing, coming home from work, throwing your feet 968 00:59:15.639 --> 00:59:17.360 up on the couch like hey, give me a beard, 969 00:59:17.519 --> 00:59:21.320 clean the kitchen to your wife, not loving her like Christ, 970 00:59:21.400 --> 00:59:23.440 Love the Church, then then all of a sudden things 971 00:59:23.440 --> 00:59:26.360 are gonna start going sideways. It causes arguments, it causes fights, 972 00:59:26.360 --> 00:59:28.360 and then when your wife, you know, might have that 973 00:59:28.400 --> 00:59:30.800 time of the month, she might be a little edgy, 974 00:59:30.880 --> 00:59:33.800 and then you're like over here, like whatever, start fighting 975 00:59:33.840 --> 00:59:37.000 with her. It's gonna cause problems. But if you're doing 976 00:59:37.039 --> 00:59:40.320 God's will, you have patience. Love is kind love his patient. 977 00:59:40.800 --> 00:59:45.039 It does not it does not love evil. I can't 978 00:59:45.079 --> 00:59:46.880 remember what it is. But you know, if you follow 979 00:59:46.920 --> 00:59:50.880 all these you follow the Bible and you're doing God's will, 980 00:59:51.320 --> 00:59:53.480 your life is not gonna be perfect, but it's gonna 981 00:59:53.480 --> 00:59:55.599 be so much stress free. And then you're not gonna 982 00:59:55.639 --> 00:59:57.920 have all these convictions. There's not gonna be an elephant 983 00:59:57.960 --> 01:00:00.559 on your chest when your wife's in the room, But 984 01:00:00.599 --> 01:00:03.000 when you're doing things that are bad and disrespectful to 985 01:00:03.039 --> 01:00:06.039 her and you're doing things that are against God's will, 986 01:00:06.280 --> 01:00:08.519 you're gonna have all this conviction. You're gonna have an 987 01:00:08.599 --> 01:00:13.679 elephant in the room all the time. Okay, So reflect 988 01:00:13.679 --> 01:00:16.880 on God's provision. And it's also wifes to husbands too. 989 01:00:16.920 --> 01:00:20.760 Make sure that you are also doing everything the Bible 990 01:00:20.800 --> 01:00:22.880 says for you to do as well. Right, not just 991 01:00:22.920 --> 01:00:24.840 the husband. But I just speak from a man's point 992 01:00:24.880 --> 01:00:28.159 of view. That's why I say that trust in God's 993 01:00:28.199 --> 01:00:30.320 promise to provide for your needs. We already talked about 994 01:00:30.360 --> 01:00:34.199 that value freedom and justice. Advocate for justice and freedom 995 01:00:34.239 --> 01:00:38.360 in your community, remembering the importance of treating others with dignity, 996 01:00:38.760 --> 01:00:42.280 and respect. Whether you're dealing with someone at the grocery store, 997 01:00:42.360 --> 01:00:44.079 or you're dealing with someone at the gas station, or 998 01:00:44.119 --> 01:00:46.320 you're dealing with somebody that's walking by you, or whether 999 01:00:46.360 --> 01:00:48.239 you're dealing with someone in church, whether you're dealing with 1000 01:00:48.280 --> 01:00:50.880 someone in school, whether you're dealing with somebody in college, 1001 01:00:51.079 --> 01:00:54.039 whether you're dealing with someone with somebody that's an employee, 1002 01:00:54.039 --> 01:00:59.360 whether you're dealing with anybody, Treat them with respect for sure, dignity, 1003 01:00:59.480 --> 01:01:04.880 respect and integrity. When you give someone your word, keep 1004 01:01:05.159 --> 01:01:08.880 your word. When you're dealing with your wife, deal with 1005 01:01:08.920 --> 01:01:15.079 respect and dignity and love. When you're dealing with your kids, dignity, respect, 1006 01:01:15.440 --> 01:01:22.920 and love. Okay, And for some reason I have on here. 1007 01:01:25.559 --> 01:01:28.119 Oh yeah, this is Malachi one eight. This has to 1008 01:01:28.119 --> 01:01:33.440 do with the firstborn animals. Malachi one eight. Uh yeah, 1009 01:01:33.519 --> 01:01:35.840 I will probably read that to you from the new 1010 01:01:35.920 --> 01:01:37.599 King James, because I don't want to give you some 1011 01:01:37.639 --> 01:01:44.239 water downversh. Sorry, sorry, ESV. I just want to not saying, 1012 01:01:44.440 --> 01:01:46.480 you know, I'm not saying. I'm just saying, I just 1013 01:01:46.480 --> 01:01:52.880 want to try to right. Malachi one verse eight. Let's see, 1014 01:01:54.880 --> 01:01:58.199 and when you offer the blind as a sacrifice is 1015 01:01:58.239 --> 01:02:01.679 it not evil? And when you offer the lame and sick, 1016 01:02:01.840 --> 01:02:05.719 is it not evil? Offer it then to your governor? 1017 01:02:05.840 --> 01:02:08.840 Would you be pleased with you? Would it be accept 1018 01:02:09.199 --> 01:02:13.039 Would he accept you favorably? Says the Lord of Hosts. 1019 01:02:13.440 --> 01:02:18.079 But now entreat God's favor that he may be gracious 1020 01:02:18.079 --> 01:02:20.599 to us while being done by your hands. Will they 1021 01:02:20.679 --> 01:02:25.559 accept you favorably? Says the Lord of host So what 1022 01:02:25.639 --> 01:02:28.400 he's trying to tell you is the same exact thing 1023 01:02:28.440 --> 01:02:31.920 I told you where I told you that you know, 1024 01:02:32.039 --> 01:02:34.559 what would you what would you? Uh? What would you 1025 01:02:34.639 --> 01:02:37.760 cook for the governor? You know? And that's what? More 1026 01:02:37.800 --> 01:02:40.079 is the governor than to God? God? Is this way 1027 01:02:40.760 --> 01:02:47.639 more important than anybody anybody? Okay, okay, let's continue. Should 1028 01:02:47.639 --> 01:02:50.239 be more important than your wife, okay, more important than 1029 01:02:50.239 --> 01:02:55.599 your kids, more important than anything or anybody. So now 1030 01:02:55.679 --> 01:02:57.920 we're gonna go over this kind of go over this 1031 01:02:58.039 --> 01:03:02.280 kind of quickly, because this is this review, the passover reviewed. Okay, 1032 01:03:02.519 --> 01:03:05.360 And well I always say go over something quickly, and 1033 01:03:05.400 --> 01:03:10.039 then I get into my notes and it's not quickly. Right, 1034 01:03:10.199 --> 01:03:14.679 let's go over here? Oh wait, I'm sorry, yeah, I did. 1035 01:03:14.719 --> 01:03:16.920 I want to have practical applications for that chapter perfect. 1036 01:03:16.960 --> 01:03:20.519 All right, let's go over Deuteronomy the Passover Deuteronomy sixteen 1037 01:03:21.159 --> 01:03:25.039 one through eight. Deuteronomy sixteen one says, observe the month 1038 01:03:25.039 --> 01:03:27.440 of a Bib and keep the passover of the Lord 1039 01:03:27.480 --> 01:03:29.639 your God. For in the month of a Bib, the 1040 01:03:29.719 --> 01:03:32.519 Lord your God brought you out of Egypt by night. 1041 01:03:33.039 --> 01:03:36.239 Therefore you shall sacrifice the passover to the Lord your 1042 01:03:36.239 --> 01:03:38.480 God from the flock and the herd in the place 1043 01:03:38.480 --> 01:03:41.320 where the Lord chooses to put his name. You shall 1044 01:03:41.360 --> 01:03:44.480 eat no leaven bread within it seven days. You shall 1045 01:03:44.519 --> 01:03:48.119 eat on leaven bread with it, that is the bread 1046 01:03:48.239 --> 01:03:50.639 of affliction. For you come out of the land of 1047 01:03:50.719 --> 01:03:52.840 Egypt in haste that you may remember the day in 1048 01:03:52.880 --> 01:03:55.679 which you came out of the land of Egypt all 1049 01:03:55.719 --> 01:03:58.960 the days of your life. And no leaven shall be 1050 01:03:59.079 --> 01:04:01.920 among you in your territory for seven days, nor shall 1051 01:04:01.960 --> 01:04:04.360 any of the meat which you sacrify the ice the 1052 01:04:04.440 --> 01:04:08.880 first day at twilight remain overnight until morning. So what 1053 01:04:09.039 --> 01:04:13.920 it's saying, leven repriments sin so that he wants unleavened bread, right, 1054 01:04:14.280 --> 01:04:20.280 so sinless. And I want to tell you this. Let's see, 1055 01:04:20.280 --> 01:04:24.320 that's going to be four through Okay, let me continue. 1056 01:04:24.679 --> 01:04:27.719 You may not sacrifice the Passover with any of the gates. 1057 01:04:28.119 --> 01:04:32.199 You may not sacrifice the Passover within any of the 1058 01:04:32.239 --> 01:04:34.559 gates which your Lord or God gives you. But at 1059 01:04:34.599 --> 01:04:36.519 the place where the Lord your God chooses to make 1060 01:04:36.519 --> 01:04:40.679 his name abide. There you shall sacrifice the Passover at twilight, 1061 01:04:41.039 --> 01:04:42.960 at the going down of the sun, at the time 1062 01:04:43.000 --> 01:04:45.480 you come out of Egypt, and you shall roast and 1063 01:04:45.559 --> 01:04:47.760 eat it in the place where the Lord your God chooses. 1064 01:04:47.800 --> 01:04:50.119 And in the morning you shall turn and go to 1065 01:04:50.199 --> 01:04:53.039 your tents. Six days you shall eat eleven bread, and 1066 01:04:53.079 --> 01:04:55.679 on the seventh day there shall be a sacred assembly 1067 01:04:55.800 --> 01:05:00.760 to the Lord your God. You shall do no work 1068 01:05:01.079 --> 01:05:03.599 on it. Right, So it's a sabbath, right, So all right, 1069 01:05:03.639 --> 01:05:05.159 So that makes sense. So let's let's go ahead and 1070 01:05:05.199 --> 01:05:08.280 read some teaching points. The Passover is a commemoration of 1071 01:05:08.400 --> 01:05:13.199 Israel's deliverance from Egypt, highlighting God's power and faithfulness. It 1072 01:05:13.280 --> 01:05:15.199 is to be observed in the month of a Bib, 1073 01:05:15.440 --> 01:05:18.840 marking that the beginning of the Jewish religious calendar. The 1074 01:05:18.920 --> 01:05:21.360 sacrifice must be made at the place of God chooses, 1075 01:05:21.360 --> 01:05:26.920 emphasizing the importance of worshiping. According to God's and instructions. 1076 01:05:28.800 --> 01:05:31.679 So Deuteronomy sixteen wfirst to Egypt. That's a place where 1077 01:05:31.679 --> 01:05:34.760 the Israelites were delivered. The first States observed the month 1078 01:05:34.800 --> 01:05:38.440 of a Bib to celebrate the Lord your God, that 1079 01:05:38.519 --> 01:05:43.039 which we already went through. The Hebrew word for Egypt 1080 01:05:43.280 --> 01:05:46.880 is mitzra jim, which is often associated with the idea 1081 01:05:46.920 --> 01:05:50.039 of a narrow or constructed place, symbolizing the bondage from 1082 01:05:50.039 --> 01:05:57.840 which the Israelites were freed. Deuteronomy the phrase the place 1083 01:05:57.920 --> 01:06:01.440 the Lord wills. Okay, so let's see it. It's actually 1084 01:06:01.440 --> 01:06:04.039 refers to the pacific location where God would choose to 1085 01:06:04.119 --> 01:06:07.559 establish his name and where the Israelites were to bring 1086 01:06:07.599 --> 01:06:10.159 their sacrifice in offering. The exact locations not named to 1087 01:06:10.199 --> 01:06:12.960 this chapter, but it is understood to be Jerusalem, where 1088 01:06:12.960 --> 01:06:16.199 the temple was eventually built. The Hebrew word for choose 1089 01:06:16.880 --> 01:06:24.599 is bachar bakar, indicating a deliberate selection by God. Okay, 1090 01:06:25.159 --> 01:06:31.000 so we got to understand that, and we'll go over 1091 01:06:31.079 --> 01:06:35.559 a few other things. The month of a bib, the 1092 01:06:35.599 --> 01:06:37.559 month of a bib and celebrate the passover the Lord 1093 01:06:37.559 --> 01:06:40.079 your God. Because of the month Dinonymy sixteen, the word 1094 01:06:40.119 --> 01:06:43.519 a bib refers to the first month of the Hebrew calendar, 1095 01:06:43.599 --> 01:06:46.239 marking the beginning of the barley harvest and the time 1096 01:06:46.280 --> 01:06:51.400 of Exodus. The next thing is to celebrate Passover Denonyomy 1097 01:06:51.440 --> 01:06:56.159 sixteen to two. The Passover Pasakh commemorates the israelites deliverance 1098 01:06:56.159 --> 01:06:58.760 from Egypt, emphasizing the importance of sacrifice and obedience, which 1099 01:06:58.760 --> 01:07:02.920 you talked about. Eating unleven bred okay, so eleven bread 1100 01:07:04.159 --> 01:07:07.639 matzat symbolizes the haste of the exodus and the purity 1101 01:07:07.719 --> 01:07:12.320 required in worship. No leaven to be seen Dounonomy sixteen four. 1102 01:07:12.360 --> 01:07:16.400 The absence of leven signifies, which is seure signifies the 1103 01:07:16.440 --> 01:07:19.840 removal of sin and corruption Dononomy sixteen to five. The 1104 01:07:19.840 --> 01:07:23.000 centralization of worship as designated place underscores the unity and 1105 01:07:23.039 --> 01:07:27.519 holiness of the community Denonomy sixteen nine. I don't think 1106 01:07:27.519 --> 01:07:29.159 we've done yet, so let me just hold off on 1107 01:07:29.239 --> 01:07:33.519 that and reading that part, and let's read it Deteronomy 1108 01:07:33.599 --> 01:07:37.320 sixteen verse nine. You shall count seven weeks for yourself. 1109 01:07:37.440 --> 01:07:39.360 Begin to count the seven weeks from the time you 1110 01:07:39.400 --> 01:07:42.639 begin to put the sickle to the grain. Then you 1111 01:07:42.679 --> 01:07:46.159 shall keep the feast of weeks to the Lord your God. 1112 01:07:46.199 --> 01:07:51.039 With the tribute of a farewell fare farewell of a 1113 01:07:51.079 --> 01:07:53.599 free will offering from your hand, which you shall give 1114 01:07:53.960 --> 01:07:56.960 as the Lord your God blesses you. You shall rejoice 1115 01:07:57.000 --> 01:07:58.880 before the Lord your God, You and your son, and 1116 01:07:58.920 --> 01:08:02.079 your daughter, your mail sir, your female servant, the levite 1117 01:08:02.079 --> 01:08:05.960 who is within your gates, the stranger and the fatherless, 1118 01:08:06.000 --> 01:08:08.400 and the widow, who are among you, at the place 1119 01:08:08.440 --> 01:08:12.559 where the Lord your God chooses to make his name abide. 1120 01:08:12.719 --> 01:08:16.079 And you shall remember that you were a slave in Egypt. 1121 01:08:16.159 --> 01:08:21.640 And you shall be careful to observe these statutes. Needed 1122 01:08:21.640 --> 01:08:31.039 some more water, So celebrate the feast of weeks known 1123 01:08:31.119 --> 01:08:33.840 as chevat what you guys have probably heard that the 1124 01:08:33.880 --> 01:08:39.000 feast marks the completion of the grain harvest giving and 1125 01:08:39.079 --> 01:08:44.159 the giving of the Torah. Okay, the next verse is 1126 01:08:44.479 --> 01:08:49.840 Deuteronomy sixteen eleven. They command the command to rejoice. Shamack 1127 01:08:50.159 --> 01:08:57.800 emphasizes communal joy and inclusivi inclusivity in worship. And then 1128 01:08:58.159 --> 01:09:00.159 did we do Nope, we haven't done that yet. The 1129 01:09:00.199 --> 01:09:03.359 feast of tabernacles reviewed. So we're gonna go ahead and 1130 01:09:05.520 --> 01:09:11.119 go there. And uh, this is Deuteronomy sixteen, verse thirteen. 1131 01:09:11.840 --> 01:09:15.880 You shall observe the feast of tabernacles. Seven days, when 1132 01:09:15.880 --> 01:09:18.520 you have gathered from your threshing floor and from your 1133 01:09:18.560 --> 01:09:21.119 wine press, you shall rejoice in your feast. You and 1134 01:09:21.159 --> 01:09:23.800 your son and your daughter, your male servant, your female servant, 1135 01:09:23.840 --> 01:09:28.000 and the levite, the stranger, and the fatherless and the widow, 1136 01:09:28.000 --> 01:09:31.359 who are within your gates. Seven days you shall keep 1137 01:09:31.399 --> 01:09:33.199 a sacred feast to the Lord your God in the 1138 01:09:33.239 --> 01:09:35.880 place which the Lord chooses. Because the Lord your God 1139 01:09:35.920 --> 01:09:39.479 will bless you and all your produce and all your 1140 01:09:39.520 --> 01:09:46.560 work in your hands, so you so that you surely rejoice. 1141 01:09:46.760 --> 01:09:53.600 It's the end of that little portion. So in Deuteronomy 1142 01:09:53.720 --> 01:09:58.159 sixteen thirteen also knows this no known as Sukut, the 1143 01:09:58.199 --> 01:10:01.600 feast commemorates the Israelites will this journey in God's provision. 1144 01:10:02.119 --> 01:10:04.039 So a lot of this stuff I went over before. 1145 01:10:04.079 --> 01:10:05.880 So I have a little something for you guys. Here, 1146 01:10:06.680 --> 01:10:09.680 a little something extra here, right, So I've gone over 1147 01:10:09.760 --> 01:10:13.000 this before, so I have some there's some gems in 1148 01:10:13.039 --> 01:10:18.359 this Bible. Study notes that I have Deuteronomy sixteen, verse sixteen. 1149 01:10:18.720 --> 01:10:21.720 Three times a year, all of your males shall appear 1150 01:10:21.800 --> 01:10:23.600 before the Lord your God in the place which he 1151 01:10:23.720 --> 01:10:27.319 chooses at the feast of unleavened bread, at the feast 1152 01:10:27.319 --> 01:10:29.640 of weeks, at the feast of Tabernacles. They shall not 1153 01:10:29.680 --> 01:10:33.239 appear before the Lord empty handed. Every man shall give 1154 01:10:33.279 --> 01:10:36.319 as he is able, according to the blessing of the 1155 01:10:36.359 --> 01:10:41.279 Lord your God, which he has given you. Okay. In 1156 01:10:41.520 --> 01:10:50.119 Deuteronomy sixteen sixteen, these pilgrimage festivals shall loose rajalim highlight 1157 01:10:50.199 --> 01:10:55.000 the rhythm of the worship and the covenant relationship with God. 1158 01:10:56.359 --> 01:11:00.520 In Deuteronomy sixteen sixteen through seventeen, the principle of giving 1159 01:11:00.720 --> 01:11:05.159 naton is the word in Hebrew reflects gratitude and acknowledgment 1160 01:11:05.279 --> 01:11:11.600 of God's provisions. Very nice. Is there any teaching points 1161 01:11:11.640 --> 01:11:21.560 that I may be missing? Yes. The feast of Tabernacle, 1162 01:11:22.800 --> 01:11:27.199 which we read this feast is the celebration of harvest 1163 01:11:27.199 --> 01:11:30.000 and reminder of Israel's wilderness journey. It is a time 1164 01:11:30.039 --> 01:11:33.520 of joy and gratitude, lasting seven days. All males are 1165 01:11:33.560 --> 01:11:37.319 required to appear before the Lord, signifying the importance of 1166 01:11:37.399 --> 01:11:43.960 communal worship and accountability. Now we're going to do Deuteronomy 1167 01:11:44.680 --> 01:11:48.279 sixteen eighteen through twenty two, and this is going to 1168 01:11:48.359 --> 01:11:55.159 be justice and worship. Justice, must be administered. Deuteronomy sixteen, 1169 01:11:56.079 --> 01:12:00.680 verse eighteen. You shall appoint judges an office in all 1170 01:12:00.720 --> 01:12:03.079 your gates, which the Lord your God gives you, according 1171 01:12:03.079 --> 01:12:05.800 to your tribes, and they shall judge the people with 1172 01:12:06.479 --> 01:12:10.640 just judgment. You shall not pervert injustice. You shall not 1173 01:12:10.720 --> 01:12:13.760 show partiality, nor take a bribe, for a bribe blinds 1174 01:12:13.760 --> 01:12:16.560 the eyes of the wise and twists the words of 1175 01:12:16.600 --> 01:12:20.800 the rights. I wish our government would uh listen to that. 1176 01:12:21.880 --> 01:12:25.479 You shall follow what is altogether just, that you may 1177 01:12:25.640 --> 01:12:27.840 live and inherit the land which your Lord your God 1178 01:12:27.920 --> 01:12:32.239 is giving you. You shall not plant yourselves any tree 1179 01:12:32.279 --> 01:12:34.920 as a wooden image near the altar which you build 1180 01:12:34.960 --> 01:12:37.840 for yourselves to the Lord your God. You shall not 1181 01:12:38.079 --> 01:12:41.600 set up a sacred pillar, which the Lord your God 1182 01:12:42.319 --> 01:12:48.039 hates justice and worship. So in verses eighteen through twenty two, 1183 01:12:48.079 --> 01:12:50.640 the appointment of judges and officials is commanded doing sure 1184 01:12:50.880 --> 01:12:55.920 justice and righteousness in the land. The prohibition against idolatry 1185 01:12:55.960 --> 01:12:59.920 and setting up a sacred stone of asherah poles highlights 1186 01:13:00.119 --> 01:13:03.359 the need for pure worship. So obviously the Pagans were 1187 01:13:03.399 --> 01:13:09.640 setting up astroot polls and all this different things. God 1188 01:13:09.720 --> 01:13:11.960 is saying not to do that. Okay, that's all that 1189 01:13:12.079 --> 01:13:16.439 is set up being set apart. That's the end of 1190 01:13:16.479 --> 01:13:20.319 the chapter, and I want to go over some practical applications. 1191 01:13:20.359 --> 01:13:23.039 Let me make sure I'm not missing anything down here. 1192 01:13:25.840 --> 01:13:28.239 The principle of giving the ton we already talked about. 1193 01:13:28.439 --> 01:13:31.239 So let's go over practical applications we can apply to 1194 01:13:31.319 --> 01:13:38.920 our life. Remember and celebrate God's faithfulness regularly. Set aside 1195 01:13:38.920 --> 01:13:41.880 time to reflect on and celebrate God's work in your life. 1196 01:13:42.680 --> 01:13:45.920 That is such a something we should definitely do. Our 1197 01:13:46.000 --> 01:13:50.000 life is running so fast and we have so many 1198 01:13:50.039 --> 01:13:53.760 things coming at us. That's how I feel sometimes. I'm 1199 01:13:53.800 --> 01:13:56.760 a high functioning person, so I like a lot of 1200 01:13:56.800 --> 01:13:59.680 things happening, you know, and I have to always be creating. 1201 01:14:00.239 --> 01:14:03.119 That's just the way my mind works. Whether it's I'm 1202 01:14:03.119 --> 01:14:05.600 not creating music really much anymore, so I'm creating more 1203 01:14:05.640 --> 01:14:09.119 for my podcasts and stuff like that. So I have 1204 01:14:09.159 --> 01:14:11.279 a lot going on, but I have to set aside 1205 01:14:11.319 --> 01:14:14.199 time to reflect on and celebrate God's work in my life. 1206 01:14:14.359 --> 01:14:16.520 God has worked in my life so much, Oh my gosh. 1207 01:14:16.560 --> 01:14:21.840 I went from went from struggling so much, you know, 1208 01:14:21.920 --> 01:14:25.920 struggling so much, to where I'm at today is just amazing. 1209 01:14:26.000 --> 01:14:30.079 God is so great. Cultivate a heart of gratitude. Practice 1210 01:14:30.119 --> 01:14:34.000 gratitude by acknowledging God's provision and sharing your blessings with others, 1211 01:14:34.119 --> 01:14:36.760 especially those in need. And we talked about that in 1212 01:14:36.800 --> 01:14:39.479 the last chapter. We need to do that for sure. 1213 01:14:40.399 --> 01:14:43.319 Help those in need. Don't be afraid to give someone 1214 01:14:43.359 --> 01:14:45.840 the shirt off your back or a jacket in your car, 1215 01:14:46.319 --> 01:14:50.199 or food or whatever somebody needs that's in need. You know. 1216 01:14:51.920 --> 01:14:56.000 Pursue justice and righteousness. Engage in actions and decisions that 1217 01:14:56.039 --> 01:15:00.239 promote justice and reflect God's character in your community. Age 1218 01:15:00.279 --> 01:15:04.439 and actions and decisions that promote justice and reflect God's character. Yes, 1219 01:15:04.439 --> 01:15:07.279 we need to reflect God. We need to reflect God's 1220 01:15:07.359 --> 01:15:11.560 character so much as much as possible. I know that 1221 01:15:11.600 --> 01:15:14.399 we're human and sometimes we get mad, sometimes we get angry, 1222 01:15:14.439 --> 01:15:18.239 sometimes we have issues with that, but we need to 1223 01:15:18.279 --> 01:15:21.560 definitely reflect God's character in our community. I agree with that. 1224 01:15:21.560 --> 01:15:24.439 That's how you attract people to the faith. That's how 1225 01:15:24.439 --> 01:15:26.239 people will come to you and say, what do you 1226 01:15:26.399 --> 01:15:29.720 have that I don't have? What is that joy in 1227 01:15:29.760 --> 01:15:32.520 your life? Why are you so nice when someone might 1228 01:15:32.520 --> 01:15:34.600 be mean to you? Why do you treat that person 1229 01:15:34.640 --> 01:15:38.039 with such kindness and compassion when most people don't act 1230 01:15:38.079 --> 01:15:39.800 like that. Why do you always say hi to each 1231 01:15:39.840 --> 01:15:42.279 person you see? Why do you always say good morning? 1232 01:15:42.319 --> 01:15:44.680 And how you doing? How's everything going? Why you always 1233 01:15:44.720 --> 01:15:46.479 check on your friends? Why you always check on people? 1234 01:15:46.520 --> 01:15:49.039 Why are you always filled with love? Why are you 1235 01:15:49.119 --> 01:15:53.680 that person? Why? Because you're reflecting God's character in your community? 1236 01:15:55.359 --> 01:15:58.600 Worship in spirit and truth, ensure that your worship is 1237 01:15:58.640 --> 01:16:02.159 aligned with God's word, free from idology and distractions. How 1238 01:16:02.159 --> 01:16:04.800 do you ensure that your worship is aligned with God's word? 1239 01:16:05.640 --> 01:16:10.880 Read the Bible. That is it and we are reading 1240 01:16:10.880 --> 01:16:17.479 it right now. That's the only way you can make 1241 01:16:17.520 --> 01:16:21.920 sure that what you are, how you are worshiping is 1242 01:16:21.960 --> 01:16:28.119 aligning with God's word. Okay, you have to know God's word. 1243 01:16:28.640 --> 01:16:32.039 And this is why we have these kind of studies. 1244 01:16:32.479 --> 01:16:35.359 This is why I'm really appreciative of having this show 1245 01:16:36.039 --> 01:16:42.680 because you know it will really assist people, hopefully in 1246 01:16:42.840 --> 01:16:45.880 knowing how to worship God. So, okay, so we're done 1247 01:16:45.880 --> 01:16:49.760 with that chapter. All I have left for Deudonomy sixteen 1248 01:16:50.000 --> 01:16:55.640 is some additional scriptures Exodus twelve Versus one through fourteen. 1249 01:16:55.920 --> 01:16:58.479 Those are like Chapter one all the way through fourteen 1250 01:16:59.039 --> 01:17:02.840 is what are originally talks about passover. Okay, So Exodus 1251 01:17:02.880 --> 01:17:04.960 twelve verses one through fourteen, if you want to go 1252 01:17:05.079 --> 01:17:08.359 back and study those, it'll tell you about what happened 1253 01:17:08.359 --> 01:17:12.880 and what passovers all about. Acts two versus one through 1254 01:17:12.920 --> 01:17:16.520 four the fulfillment of the feast of weeks at Pentecost 1255 01:17:16.640 --> 01:17:18.840 with the coming of the Holy Spirit, if you want 1256 01:17:18.880 --> 01:17:22.159 to read that, Acts two, verses one through four. And 1257 01:17:22.199 --> 01:17:27.399 then we have John seven thirty seven through thirty nine, 1258 01:17:28.119 --> 01:17:31.680 Jesus teaching during the feast of Tabernaco's offering living water. 1259 01:17:31.840 --> 01:17:38.359 Check that out. And then Maca six verse eight. Chapter 1260 01:17:38.479 --> 01:17:42.119 six verse eight has a call to act justly, love mercy, 1261 01:17:42.159 --> 01:17:45.880 and walk humbly with God. So that is some extra verses. 1262 01:17:45.880 --> 01:17:51.800 If you want to do some extra studies and that 1263 01:17:51.840 --> 01:17:55.680 I'll definitely assist you find out what passover is. You know, 1264 01:17:55.920 --> 01:17:59.840 that's always good to know. So we'll go to Doudo 1265 01:18:00.159 --> 01:18:02.359 to be seventeen. I'm not going to go over all 1266 01:18:02.359 --> 01:18:05.479 that stuff because we've I've gone over that many times. 1267 01:18:06.119 --> 01:18:09.359 And if you want to go back to my study 1268 01:18:09.399 --> 01:18:14.840 on Exodus, Bam, you can go back and look in 1269 01:18:14.960 --> 01:18:20.000 Sunday Service and you'll go to where I'm going over Exodus, 1270 01:18:22.199 --> 01:18:24.880 Do Do Do Do, Do Do Do Do. Where's it 1271 01:18:24.880 --> 01:18:29.199 at Exodus twelve, verses one through fourteen. You will see 1272 01:18:30.600 --> 01:18:33.560 where I talk about passover. Also I talk about passover 1273 01:18:33.600 --> 01:18:35.640 when we're going into Leviticus as well. I don't remember 1274 01:18:35.640 --> 01:18:37.680 what episode that is, but yeah, if you want to 1275 01:18:37.720 --> 01:18:40.239 go over that, I will get into it. But this 1276 01:18:40.319 --> 01:18:43.359 is all kind of review for everybody. So the ones 1277 01:18:43.359 --> 01:18:46.239 that have been sticking with me week by week probably 1278 01:18:46.279 --> 01:18:49.880 already have a good idea. So now we're going to 1279 01:18:49.960 --> 01:18:57.119 be on Deuteronomy seventeen. Here we go, perfect Deuteronomy seventeen. 1280 01:18:59.199 --> 01:19:01.760 We're gonna start out with various instructions. I think there's 1281 01:19:01.800 --> 01:19:07.319 some stuff about idolatry in here. Yep. Cool, seventeen is 1282 01:19:07.479 --> 01:19:15.640 fairly short, but we will get into it. So, yeah, 1283 01:19:15.720 --> 01:19:20.960 one through seven is going to be prohibition, prohibition, prohibition 1284 01:19:21.119 --> 01:19:24.800 or prohibiting of idolatry. Okay, So we are going to 1285 01:19:24.920 --> 01:19:27.640 read it first, and then I got some verses and 1286 01:19:27.680 --> 01:19:29.960 stuff that you need to study about idolatry, so you 1287 01:19:30.000 --> 01:19:32.560 know exactly what that is, and let's get into it. 1288 01:19:32.560 --> 01:19:36.520 It says you shall not sacrifice to the Lord a 1289 01:19:36.760 --> 01:19:41.960 bull or sheep that has any blemish or defect or 1290 01:19:42.079 --> 01:19:45.920 this is an abomination to the Lord your God. We 1291 01:19:46.000 --> 01:19:48.600 already talked about it, right. You want to give God 1292 01:19:48.640 --> 01:19:52.039 your best, just like you would give to your father 1293 01:19:52.119 --> 01:19:56.199 in law, or your governor, or your senator, or your mayor, 1294 01:19:56.319 --> 01:20:00.359 or whatever you think is a your highly respectivele person. 1295 01:20:01.119 --> 01:20:03.479 I just think everybody's everybody. I don't look at people 1296 01:20:03.479 --> 01:20:05.399 any different. But when it comes to God, obviously you 1297 01:20:05.399 --> 01:20:13.880 want to offer your best. Deuteronomy seventeen, verse two. If 1298 01:20:13.920 --> 01:20:16.159 there is found among you, within any of your gates, 1299 01:20:16.159 --> 01:20:17.880 which the Lord your God gives you, a man or 1300 01:20:17.920 --> 01:20:20.199 a woman who has been wicked in the sight of 1301 01:20:20.319 --> 01:20:24.920 the Lord your God in transgressing his covenant, who has 1302 01:20:25.000 --> 01:20:27.720 gone and served other gods and worshiped them, either the 1303 01:20:27.760 --> 01:20:30.920 Sun or moon, or any of the host of heaven, 1304 01:20:30.960 --> 01:20:34.399 which I have not commanded. And it is told to 1305 01:20:34.439 --> 01:20:38.199 you that you hear of it, then you shall inquire diligently. 1306 01:20:38.920 --> 01:20:42.039 And it is if it is indeed true and certain 1307 01:20:42.079 --> 01:20:45.119 that such an abomination has been committed in Israel, then 1308 01:20:45.159 --> 01:20:49.079 you shall bring out, bring out to your gates that 1309 01:20:49.119 --> 01:20:51.479 man or woman who has committed the wicked thing, and 1310 01:20:51.560 --> 01:20:56.000 shall stone to death. That man or woman with stones, 1311 01:20:57.279 --> 01:21:00.319 whoever is deserving of death, shall be put to death 1312 01:21:00.399 --> 01:21:04.720 on the testimony of two or three witnesses. It can't 1313 01:21:04.760 --> 01:21:07.800 just be one person that has a vendetta against somebody 1314 01:21:08.079 --> 01:21:09.760 trying to get someone in trouble. It has to be 1315 01:21:09.840 --> 01:21:12.199 two or three witnesses. He should not be put to 1316 01:21:12.199 --> 01:21:15.159 death in the testimony of one witness. The hands of 1317 01:21:15.199 --> 01:21:18.640 the witness shall be the first against him to be 1318 01:21:18.640 --> 01:21:20.880 put him to death, and afterward the hands of all 1319 01:21:20.960 --> 01:21:26.720 the people. So you shall put away the evil among you. 1320 01:21:27.600 --> 01:21:30.840 Why would God care about you worshiping the sun? Why 1321 01:21:30.840 --> 01:21:33.840 would God care about you worshiping the moon? Why would 1322 01:21:33.920 --> 01:21:40.159 God care about you worshiping the host of heaven. Listen 1323 01:21:40.199 --> 01:21:42.880 to my biblical cosmology. Listen to the way I teach 1324 01:21:42.960 --> 01:21:45.960 on when I jump on people's shows. I'm telling you, guys, 1325 01:21:46.000 --> 01:21:50.720 there's more going on in the heavens. What does it 1326 01:21:50.840 --> 01:21:56.640 say in Ephesians six versus twelve when it says we've 1327 01:21:56.640 --> 01:21:59.119 wrestled not against flesh and butter or principalities and evil. 1328 01:21:59.119 --> 01:22:02.680 Principality is a vase in heavenly places. What is it 1329 01:22:02.760 --> 01:22:06.359 talking about the only heavenly places that there is is 1330 01:22:06.399 --> 01:22:08.199 if you look up where the moon, sun of the 1331 01:22:08.239 --> 01:22:11.920 stars are located, that's where the principalities of evil are located. 1332 01:22:12.359 --> 01:22:16.000 That's the heavenly places. There's not principalities of evil located 1333 01:22:16.680 --> 01:22:21.520 in in God's throne. What is below God's thrown well 1334 01:22:22.079 --> 01:22:26.279 the firmament Ezekiel one twenty six, Ezekiel ten to one, 1335 01:22:27.960 --> 01:22:31.159 Isaiah forty twenty two. God is looking down on the 1336 01:22:31.199 --> 01:22:33.239 circle of the Earth. I mean, there's a whole bunch 1337 01:22:33.279 --> 01:22:35.840 of verses. But all I'm telling you, guys, is between 1338 01:22:36.000 --> 01:22:38.720 Earth and Heaven. How we're far away it is, we 1339 01:22:38.760 --> 01:22:41.640 don't know. And whether you believe in a heliocentric globe 1340 01:22:41.720 --> 01:22:45.960 or you believe in biblical cosmology, whatever you want to believe, 1341 01:22:46.079 --> 01:22:48.239 all I'm telling you is that where the moon, sun 1342 01:22:48.279 --> 01:22:51.880 of the stars are located is where the battles are happening. 1343 01:22:51.920 --> 01:22:57.000 The spiritual battles are happening. Why do we call planets, 1344 01:22:57.279 --> 01:23:00.680 or what we call in the Bible wandering stars? Why 1345 01:23:00.720 --> 01:23:05.880 are they named after a bunch of gods Saturn, Mars, Jupiter. 1346 01:23:06.359 --> 01:23:10.600 Why they are wandering stars? They are not doing the 1347 01:23:10.640 --> 01:23:13.279 same path that God wants the stars to be doing. 1348 01:23:13.399 --> 01:23:17.800 They're wandering. That's what they're called in the Greek wandering 1349 01:23:17.880 --> 01:23:23.319 stars planets. They're named after all these different gods because 1350 01:23:23.359 --> 01:23:30.159 people are worshiping them. Why do you think that Warner 1351 01:23:30.239 --> 01:23:35.199 von Braun called it saturn five Saturnalia, Brotherhood of saturn 1352 01:23:35.239 --> 01:23:39.159 Elia in Germany, that is where he came from. Brotherhood 1353 01:23:39.199 --> 01:23:42.600 of saturn Elia is a secret society there. All I'm 1354 01:23:42.640 --> 01:23:46.079 telling you, guys is look what God says right here. 1355 01:23:46.720 --> 01:23:48.399 And you, guys, you know what. I'm not trying to 1356 01:23:48.680 --> 01:23:51.239 dig into biblical causemulgerator, I'm just trying to tell you guys. 1357 01:23:52.439 --> 01:23:57.479 It says he's saying not to worship the sun, the moon, 1358 01:23:58.600 --> 01:24:02.199 or any of the hosts of heaven. He's not even 1359 01:24:02.279 --> 01:24:07.720 calling them stars, He's calling them host of heaven. Ooh, well, 1360 01:24:07.800 --> 01:24:10.800 let's go ahead and go to a strong skydcordance and 1361 01:24:10.960 --> 01:24:13.640 find out what that means. Because I want to know 1362 01:24:14.319 --> 01:24:15.640 exactly what that means. 1363 01:24:16.079 --> 01:24:16.520 I go to. 1364 01:24:16.560 --> 01:24:20.600 Genesis Deuteronomy seventeen. This is the blue Letter Bible, if 1365 01:24:20.600 --> 01:24:24.119 you guys want to do this. Deuteronomy seventeen. I go 1366 01:24:24.239 --> 01:24:30.079 to verse three because he had got out sources up 1367 01:24:30.119 --> 01:24:31.960 the sun, moon, or any of the host of heaven. 1368 01:24:32.000 --> 01:24:33.760 That's what it says right here in the King James 1369 01:24:33.800 --> 01:24:37.119 and in the New King James. What in the heck 1370 01:24:37.279 --> 01:24:42.840 are the host of heaven an army, host of angels, 1371 01:24:43.359 --> 01:24:49.000 the sun, moon and stars the whole creation war warfare service, 1372 01:24:49.399 --> 01:24:54.199 go out to war service. Is it saying that the 1373 01:24:54.199 --> 01:24:58.479 host of heaven or that stars or angels? Oh, oh man, 1374 01:24:58.520 --> 01:25:05.239 look at you strong co accordance, listen to that. Yes, 1375 01:25:06.000 --> 01:25:09.479 God doesn't want you to worship them. Because the stars 1376 01:25:10.039 --> 01:25:14.159 biblically are angels. What does Satan do he takes a 1377 01:25:14.199 --> 01:25:17.159 third of the stars with him. What does it say 1378 01:25:17.199 --> 01:25:20.439 in Isaiah Isaiah that the host of heaven are going 1379 01:25:20.479 --> 01:25:21.960 to fall to the earth. What does it say in 1380 01:25:21.960 --> 01:25:25.239 the Book of Revelation all the stars are going to 1381 01:25:25.319 --> 01:25:28.319 fall to the earth. Am I telling you that every 1382 01:25:28.319 --> 01:25:31.439 single angel that God has ever created as a star. No, 1383 01:25:32.000 --> 01:25:35.680 what I am telling you is, Biblically, stars are angels. 1384 01:25:35.800 --> 01:25:38.880 Scientifically stars are balls of gas. And all the different 1385 01:25:38.880 --> 01:25:40.840 things he tried to tell you that are twenty four 1386 01:25:41.079 --> 01:25:43.319 train miles away. But what I'm telling you in the 1387 01:25:43.359 --> 01:25:48.520 Bible is that stars are angels a type of angel. 1388 01:25:49.319 --> 01:25:52.239 Book of Enoch will tell you the same thing. Okay, 1389 01:25:52.439 --> 01:25:55.640 But I'm just letting you guys know, there's something more 1390 01:25:55.960 --> 01:26:00.560 to between us and heaven. Where the moon, sun, and 1391 01:26:00.600 --> 01:26:03.000 the stars are located. There's something more there. That's why 1392 01:26:03.039 --> 01:26:05.600 God doesn't want you to worship them. The people were 1393 01:26:05.600 --> 01:26:10.560 worshiping the sun in where Egypt the moon. Oh, we 1394 01:26:10.600 --> 01:26:12.720 know who worshiped the moon. You know, it's on their 1395 01:26:12.760 --> 01:26:17.399 flags all the time, Muslim even though they don't know it. 1396 01:26:17.479 --> 01:26:20.880 But you know, you see the moon all over the place. 1397 01:26:20.880 --> 01:26:22.720 You see the sun all over the place. Shell gas 1398 01:26:22.720 --> 01:26:24.640 station is the sun. I mean, you see the sun. 1399 01:26:24.800 --> 01:26:28.199 Even the Walmart sign a sun. You see the sun everywhere. 1400 01:26:28.760 --> 01:26:32.960 Egypt was worshiping the sun. That's raw, that's Osyrus. You 1401 01:26:33.039 --> 01:26:37.760 have Apollo, you have all these different gods. People worshiping 1402 01:26:37.880 --> 01:26:43.039 the stars, worshiping planets. There's a lot of that, and 1403 01:26:43.119 --> 01:26:45.640 God is saying not to do that. And what does God? 1404 01:26:45.720 --> 01:26:49.840 He doesn't want you to mix their pagan worship with 1405 01:26:50.000 --> 01:26:52.840 worshiping him. He doesn't want you to worship the creation. 1406 01:26:53.600 --> 01:26:58.560 He wants you to worship the Creator. Which makes total sense. Okay, 1407 01:26:59.039 --> 01:27:02.199 it makes total sense, But it's really interesting that that 1408 01:27:02.279 --> 01:27:07.760 word host. It says that which goes forth army war warfare. Host. 1409 01:27:08.239 --> 01:27:10.760 I'm telling you, guys, the spiritual battles are happening between 1410 01:27:10.800 --> 01:27:14.039 Earth and Heaven. Biblically, that's what we need in the 1411 01:27:14.079 --> 01:27:17.439 biblical sense. So I just want you to know that 1412 01:27:17.600 --> 01:27:21.479 there's something there that's more, that's incredible. I mean, I'll 1413 01:27:21.520 --> 01:27:26.760 do I did a show on this and a very 1414 01:27:26.800 --> 01:27:33.079 deep study on this, and it just came out. It'll 1415 01:27:33.079 --> 01:27:37.159 be out soon on once I receive it. I just 1416 01:27:37.199 --> 01:27:40.159 recorded it on someone else's show. Once I received this show, 1417 01:27:40.199 --> 01:27:41.520 i'll put it out. And when I put it out, 1418 01:27:41.560 --> 01:27:43.960 I'll let you guys know, so you guys can see 1419 01:27:43.960 --> 01:27:51.039 what I found. It is incredible. Okay, Sorry I got 1420 01:27:51.079 --> 01:27:53.199 a little off track, but this is just stuff that 1421 01:27:53.319 --> 01:27:58.199 I'm really interested in. So okay, So we went over that, 1422 01:27:58.760 --> 01:28:02.640 and what I want to tell you guys is Deuteronomy 1423 01:28:02.720 --> 01:28:06.600 seventeen one through seven emphasizes the seriousness of idolatry and 1424 01:28:06.640 --> 01:28:10.760 the need for thorough investigation before administering justice. You must 1425 01:28:10.800 --> 01:28:14.960 not sacrifice to the Lord. You must not sacrifice to 1426 01:28:15.000 --> 01:28:17.119 the Lord your God. An oxis sheep with any defect 1427 01:28:17.159 --> 01:28:20.600 or flaw. It is detestable to him. That's Deuteronomy seventeen 1428 01:28:21.520 --> 01:28:30.600 one and prohibition of defective sacrifices, which we just talked about. 1429 01:28:31.279 --> 01:28:37.000 The Hebrew word for defect is mum. Emphasizes the sounds 1430 01:28:37.000 --> 01:28:41.399 like how a cow sounds. A mum emphasizes the requirement 1431 01:28:41.439 --> 01:28:44.920 for offerings to be without blemish, reflecting God's holiness and 1432 01:28:44.920 --> 01:28:49.399 the need for purity and worship, and then punishment for idology. 1433 01:28:49.439 --> 01:28:51.199 If a man or woman has found among the Azeites 1434 01:28:51.239 --> 01:28:55.000 who has worshiped committed idolatry by worshiping other gods, they 1435 01:28:55.000 --> 01:28:59.039 shut they are to be thoroughly investigated. If proven true, 1436 01:28:59.079 --> 01:29:00.960 the guilty party is to be stoned to death. This 1437 01:29:01.079 --> 01:29:04.000 underscores the saredness of idology and the need to maintain 1438 01:29:04.119 --> 01:29:08.399 covenant faithfulness. God does not want you to come in 1439 01:29:08.439 --> 01:29:13.680 there and mix pagan with God worshiping God, and that's 1440 01:29:13.680 --> 01:29:17.920 happening right now in our church. Man's traditions coming in 1441 01:29:18.000 --> 01:29:21.640 and they want you to worship, you know, they want 1442 01:29:21.680 --> 01:29:23.520 you to have all these new things they're adding to it. 1443 01:29:23.560 --> 01:29:26.880 You know, God doesn't want that you're poisoning the well. 1444 01:29:27.039 --> 01:29:28.760 It's like if you have a cup of water and 1445 01:29:28.800 --> 01:29:31.279 it's pure water, and then you put three drops of 1446 01:29:31.319 --> 01:29:33.000 poison in there and you drink it, you could die. 1447 01:29:34.319 --> 01:29:38.119 You know, that's the same thing that's happening there. He 1448 01:29:38.159 --> 01:29:40.840 doesn't want to bring that poison into the camp. And 1449 01:29:40.880 --> 01:29:43.039 then they start poisoning other people, and other people are 1450 01:29:43.039 --> 01:29:45.479 starting to worship the moon, the sun, and the stars 1451 01:29:45.560 --> 01:29:47.159 and the host of heaven. And then all of a sudden, 1452 01:29:47.399 --> 01:29:49.720 you got one hundred people doing that, and then now 1453 01:29:49.720 --> 01:29:54.479 they're not worshiping God anymore. That's why they're to be 1454 01:29:54.520 --> 01:29:57.880 taken out and stoned and taken out. It's like, pluck 1455 01:29:57.920 --> 01:29:59.760 it at the root and get them out of here. 1456 01:30:01.520 --> 01:30:05.000 Requirement of two to three witnesses Deuteronomy seventeen six. A 1457 01:30:05.039 --> 01:30:07.000 person cannot be put to death in the testimony of 1458 01:30:07.000 --> 01:30:09.439 only two or three witnesses. There must be two or 1459 01:30:09.439 --> 01:30:12.720 three witnesses. The principle of requiring multiple witnesses a deem 1460 01:30:12.960 --> 01:30:19.319 ensures justice and prevents false accusation and then the execution 1461 01:30:19.399 --> 01:30:21.359 of the sentence. The witnesses are to be the first 1462 01:30:21.560 --> 01:30:24.359 to okay, the witnesses are to be the first to 1463 01:30:24.399 --> 01:30:28.600 cast stones. That's very important because if the witnesses are lying, 1464 01:30:29.000 --> 01:30:31.279 they're not going to cast the stone. They're probably gonna 1465 01:30:31.279 --> 01:30:36.359 go I lied, Please don't do this, and then they're 1466 01:30:36.399 --> 01:30:37.880 gonna get killed, you know what I mean, But you 1467 01:30:37.920 --> 01:30:41.520 know probably, and then the rest of the people will 1468 01:30:41.520 --> 01:30:44.359 start the act of communal participating in justice serves as 1469 01:30:44.399 --> 01:30:47.399 a deterrent to sin and reinforce the community role in 1470 01:30:47.479 --> 01:30:52.079 upholding God's law. Very important. Now, let's go over some 1471 01:30:52.239 --> 01:30:57.760 other verses that talk about idolatry throughout the Bible. The 1472 01:30:57.800 --> 01:31:02.439 Bible explicitly condemns warning against worshiping or giving devotion into 1473 01:31:02.439 --> 01:31:06.920 anything or anyone other than God. Key verses highlight the prohibition, 1474 01:31:07.399 --> 01:31:10.319 including an Exodus twenty verses three through six, which declares 1475 01:31:10.359 --> 01:31:15.239 you shall have no other gods before Me and prohibits 1476 01:31:15.239 --> 01:31:19.279 making or bowing to any image. Other verses emphasizing this 1477 01:31:19.880 --> 01:31:23.720 fullishness of idolatries and its consequences, like Isaiah forty nine 1478 01:31:23.760 --> 01:31:26.199 through twenty and Romans one twenty one through twenty three. 1479 01:31:26.800 --> 01:31:30.399 Key Bible verses on idolatry are Exodus twenty verses three 1480 01:31:30.399 --> 01:31:32.000 through six, which I kind of already went over for 1481 01:31:32.039 --> 01:31:35.319 you guys. It says you shall not make no other 1482 01:31:35.359 --> 01:31:37.720 gods before me. You shall not make yourselves an image 1483 01:31:37.720 --> 01:31:41.479 in the form of anything in heaven above or on earth, 1484 01:31:41.800 --> 01:31:44.640 or in the waters below. You shall not bow down 1485 01:31:44.720 --> 01:31:49.039 to them or worship them. Leviticus twenty six to one. 1486 01:31:49.720 --> 01:31:52.720 You shall not make idols for yourselves or wrecked an 1487 01:31:52.760 --> 01:31:55.560 image or pillar. You shall not set up a figured 1488 01:31:55.640 --> 01:31:59.880 stone in your land to bow down to it. Psalms 1489 01:32:00.159 --> 01:32:05.279 one fifteen, verses four through eight. The song ridicules idols, 1490 01:32:05.399 --> 01:32:08.960 highlighting the inability to speak, see, or to hear, and 1491 01:32:09.159 --> 01:32:14.359 mocks those who make and trust in them. Okay, so 1492 01:32:15.960 --> 01:32:19.760 now we have Romans twenty one through twenty three. For 1493 01:32:19.840 --> 01:32:23.119 although they knew God, they neither glorify, hit him as God, 1494 01:32:23.159 --> 01:32:26.199 nor gave thanks to him. But their thinking became futile, 1495 01:32:26.319 --> 01:32:30.239 and their foolish minds were darkened. Claiming to be wise, 1496 01:32:30.359 --> 01:32:33.479 they became fools. They exchanged the glory of the immoral 1497 01:32:33.520 --> 01:32:36.840 God for images made to look like mortal people and 1498 01:32:36.920 --> 01:32:40.239 birds and animals and crawling things. For this reason God 1499 01:32:40.359 --> 01:32:45.520 gave them over to shameful passions. That's Romans one through 1500 01:32:45.560 --> 01:32:50.079 twenty six. UH one First John five twenty months. The 1501 01:32:50.079 --> 01:32:54.319 little children, keep yourselves from idols Colossians three five mortify. 1502 01:32:54.920 --> 01:32:58.720 Therefore the members of your earthy body, sexual immorality, impurity, 1503 01:32:59.279 --> 01:33:03.439 unbridled pack and evil desires and coveraiousness which is idolatry. 1504 01:33:04.000 --> 01:33:08.000 One Corinthians ten, fourteenth SSS. Therefore, my beloved flee from idolatry. 1505 01:33:08.279 --> 01:33:11.640 Galatians five nineteen through twenty one lists idologies, along with 1506 01:33:11.760 --> 01:33:14.159 other sins, as part the work of the flesh that 1507 01:33:14.199 --> 01:33:19.279 will not inherit the kingdom of God. The nature of idology. 1508 01:33:19.359 --> 01:33:23.399 The Bible defines idology as giving ultimate allegiance, worship, or 1509 01:33:23.439 --> 01:33:27.239 devotion to anything or anyone other than God. Idols can 1510 01:33:27.279 --> 01:33:29.960 be physical objects, but also include anything that takes the 1511 01:33:29.960 --> 01:33:34.840 place of God in your heart, such as greed, LUs, jealousy, pride, okay. 1512 01:33:35.640 --> 01:33:38.199 Idology is a serious sin that can lead to spiritual 1513 01:33:38.199 --> 01:33:42.840 and physical ruin. The dangers of idology robs God of glory. 1514 01:33:43.000 --> 01:33:47.199 Idolatry is a direct affront to God, who is the 1515 01:33:47.199 --> 01:33:51.640 only one worthy to worship. It also causes spiritual corruption. 1516 01:33:51.760 --> 01:33:55.079 Idolatry leads to hardening of the heart and dissent into 1517 01:33:55.079 --> 01:34:01.560 spiritual darkness and physical ruin. Idolatry can bring about physical suffering, death, 1518 01:34:01.600 --> 01:34:04.039 and judgment. I'm only going over these things because it's 1519 01:34:04.039 --> 01:34:07.279 so vastly important to stay away from idolatry. Okay, that 1520 01:34:07.439 --> 01:34:12.680 is why I am highlighting and emphasizing this. Okay, So 1521 01:34:15.039 --> 01:34:18.520 Galatians five, I'm gonna go over this real quick. Nineteen 1522 01:34:18.600 --> 01:34:24.760 through twenty five. Let me go now to Galatians five, Okay, 1523 01:34:24.840 --> 01:34:27.800 because I want to make sure I'm hitting hard on this, 1524 01:34:28.479 --> 01:34:34.880 because it's very important. I'm not gonna I'm not gonna 1525 01:34:34.920 --> 01:34:36.840 go over something. I'm not gonna hit on something unless 1526 01:34:36.880 --> 01:34:39.640 it's super important for you guys. Okay, Now I'm gonna 1527 01:34:39.680 --> 01:34:45.560 go over Galatians nineteen through twenty five, so you guys 1528 01:34:45.640 --> 01:34:50.479 understand this, the importance of this. Now, the works of 1529 01:34:50.520 --> 01:35:01.399 the flesh are evident, which are adultry, fornication, uncleanliness, lewdness, idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions, jealousness, 1530 01:35:01.560 --> 01:35:08.000 outbursts of wrass, selflessness and bitsious dissensions, heresies, envy, murder, drunkenness, revelries, 1531 01:35:08.640 --> 01:35:11.920 and the like of which I tell you beforehand, just 1532 01:35:11.960 --> 01:35:14.039 as I also told you in time past, that those 1533 01:35:14.039 --> 01:35:16.840 who practice such things will not inherit the Kingdom of God. 1534 01:35:20.159 --> 01:35:22.600 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, 1535 01:35:22.680 --> 01:35:26.279 long suffering, kindness, goodness, faithful, and his gentleness self control. 1536 01:35:26.560 --> 01:35:28.920 Against such there is no law. And those who are 1537 01:35:29.479 --> 01:35:33.119 Christ have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. 1538 01:35:33.439 --> 01:35:36.960 If we live in the spirit, let us live also. 1539 01:35:37.560 --> 01:35:41.119 Let us walk in this spirit. Let us not become conceited, 1540 01:35:41.159 --> 01:35:45.439 provoking one another and being one another. Okay, All of 1541 01:35:45.520 --> 01:35:50.199 those things that I mentioned can become idols. Okay, and 1542 01:35:50.359 --> 01:35:52.840 stand in the place of God. We don't want to 1543 01:35:52.880 --> 01:35:55.159 do that, Okay. We do not want to have anything 1544 01:35:55.680 --> 01:36:00.279 that's standing in place of God or the worship of God. 1545 01:36:01.720 --> 01:36:04.960 Oh that was a lot, all right. So let's go 1546 01:36:05.079 --> 01:36:10.600 here to Deuteronomy seventeen, verse eight. If a matter arises 1547 01:36:10.640 --> 01:36:12.920 which is too hard for you to judge between degrees 1548 01:36:12.960 --> 01:36:16.399 of guilt for bloodshed, between one judgment or another, or 1549 01:36:16.439 --> 01:36:20.039 between one punishment or another, matters of controversy within your gates, 1550 01:36:20.279 --> 01:36:22.359 then you shall arise and go to the place which 1551 01:36:22.399 --> 01:36:25.000 the Lord your God chooses, And you shall not come 1552 01:36:25.039 --> 01:36:28.960 to the priests, the levites, and to the judge there's 1553 01:36:29.840 --> 01:36:32.840 there in those days, in acquire of them. They shall 1554 01:36:32.840 --> 01:36:35.920 pronounce upon you the sentence of judgment. You shall do 1555 01:36:36.039 --> 01:36:40.079 according to the careful to according to all that they 1556 01:36:40.199 --> 01:36:43.399 order you according to the sentence in the law in 1557 01:36:43.439 --> 01:36:45.960 which they instruct you, according to the judgment which they 1558 01:36:46.000 --> 01:36:49.319 tell you shall do. You shall not turn aside to 1559 01:36:49.399 --> 01:36:52.079 the right hand or to the left from the sentence 1560 01:36:52.079 --> 01:36:55.680 which they pronounce upon you. Now, the man who acts 1561 01:36:55.720 --> 01:36:59.479 presumptuously and will not heed the priest who stands to minister, Therefore, 1562 01:36:59.520 --> 01:37:03.399 before the Lord your God, or the judge, that man 1563 01:37:03.439 --> 01:37:06.560 shall die. So you shall put away the evil from Israel, 1564 01:37:06.720 --> 01:37:09.760 and the people shall hear and fear, and no longer 1565 01:37:09.840 --> 01:37:16.439 act presumptuously. So in Deuteronomy seventeen eight through nine, for 1566 01:37:16.560 --> 01:37:19.279 difficult cases that are too hard to judge locally, the 1567 01:37:19.359 --> 01:37:21.680 Israelites are to go to the place the Lord chooses 1568 01:37:21.680 --> 01:37:25.279 that consult the levitical priest and the judge in office. 1569 01:37:25.399 --> 01:37:29.600 The centralization of judicial authorities and church consistency and adherence 1570 01:37:29.680 --> 01:37:37.479 to divine law and a judicial authority. You must act 1571 01:37:37.479 --> 01:37:39.920 according to the verdict that they give you at the 1572 01:37:40.000 --> 01:37:44.279 place the Lord will choose. Now we're going to go 1573 01:37:44.359 --> 01:37:49.640 to guidelines for kingship, principal governings for kings. Let's see 1574 01:37:49.680 --> 01:37:58.319 if there's any other teaching points for this portion. Did 1575 01:37:58.319 --> 01:38:02.560 I go through tenth. Yeah, the people obedience to judicial decisions, 1576 01:38:02.600 --> 01:38:04.800 the people that command to act according to the decisions 1577 01:38:04.800 --> 01:38:07.760 given by the priests and judge without deviating to the 1578 01:38:07.880 --> 01:38:12.279 right or left. This is obedience to judicial authority. Reflects 1579 01:38:12.279 --> 01:38:16.279 the importance of maintaining order and justice in society. Deuteronomy 1580 01:38:16.399 --> 01:38:21.079 seventeen twelve through thirteen, which we already went over. Anyone 1581 01:38:21.079 --> 01:38:23.239 who shows contempt to the priests or judge must be 1582 01:38:23.239 --> 01:38:25.600 put to death to purge the evil from Israel and 1583 01:38:25.680 --> 01:38:28.079 to serve as a warning to others. This severe penalty 1584 01:38:28.159 --> 01:38:35.079 highlights the gravity of undermining God given authority. Very interesting. Yeah, 1585 01:38:35.119 --> 01:38:39.479 it's important to follow God. God shows these people their positions, 1586 01:38:39.840 --> 01:38:50.840 especially the priesthood. Right, let's continue. Principal governing kings Deuteronomy seventeen, 1587 01:38:51.600 --> 01:38:54.920 verse fourteen. And we've gone over a lot of this stuff. Okay, 1588 01:38:54.960 --> 01:38:58.079 so this is kind of review for some people. Principal 1589 01:38:58.159 --> 01:39:00.600 governing kings. When you come to the land which the 1590 01:39:00.640 --> 01:39:02.520 Lord your God is giving you, and possess it and 1591 01:39:02.600 --> 01:39:05.000 dwelling it, and say I will set a king over 1592 01:39:05.039 --> 01:39:07.720 me like all the nations that are around me. You 1593 01:39:07.760 --> 01:39:10.960 shall surely set a king over you whom your Lord, 1594 01:39:11.000 --> 01:39:14.800 God chooses one from among you, your brethren, you shall 1595 01:39:14.840 --> 01:39:17.479 set as king over you. You may not set a 1596 01:39:17.520 --> 01:39:20.199 foreigner over you who is not your brother. But he 1597 01:39:20.279 --> 01:39:23.359 shall not multiply horses for himself, nor cause the people 1598 01:39:23.399 --> 01:39:26.439 to return to Egypt to multiply horses. For the Lord 1599 01:39:26.479 --> 01:39:29.039 has said to you, you shall not return that way again. 1600 01:39:29.800 --> 01:39:33.720 Neither shall he multiply wives for himself, lest his heart 1601 01:39:33.800 --> 01:39:38.399 turn away, nor shall he greatly multiply silver and gold 1602 01:39:38.479 --> 01:39:44.039 for himself. So these are guidelines for a king. When 1603 01:39:44.079 --> 01:39:48.000 they Israelites desire a king, there to be a point. 1604 01:39:48.880 --> 01:39:51.399 They are to a point, one chosen by God from 1605 01:39:51.439 --> 01:39:55.119 among their brothers, not a foreigner. This ensures that a 1606 01:39:55.199 --> 01:39:59.159 king shares the same covenetual obligations and cultural identity as 1607 01:39:59.199 --> 01:40:02.920 the people. As we know, the first king is King Saul, 1608 01:40:03.199 --> 01:40:07.119 and he comes from Samuel, and Samuel annoints him with oil, 1609 01:40:07.800 --> 01:40:12.079 so you know he chooses him, God chooses him to 1610 01:40:12.159 --> 01:40:17.079 be king. So the people they have to know that. 1611 01:40:16.600 --> 01:40:20.560 That's a guideline for becoming a king. Let's see, and 1612 01:40:20.600 --> 01:40:23.800 then sixteen through seventeen, the king must not acquire many horses, wives, 1613 01:40:23.920 --> 01:40:28.000 or excessive wealth. To prevent reliance on military power, foreign alliances, 1614 01:40:28.079 --> 01:40:31.479 or materialism. These prohibitions aim to keep the king's heart 1615 01:40:31.479 --> 01:40:37.359 aligned with God's purposes. Isn't this interesting that we have Solomon, 1616 01:40:39.880 --> 01:40:43.880 He had many wives, excessive wealth. Right, he asked for 1617 01:40:43.920 --> 01:40:45.800 wisdom and he got all that stuff. So I thought 1618 01:40:45.840 --> 01:40:49.319 that's kind of interesting when I was kind of studying. 1619 01:40:50.319 --> 01:40:57.880 Right now now we're at Deuteronomy seventeen, verse eighteen. Also, 1620 01:40:57.960 --> 01:41:00.079 it shall be when he sits on the throne of 1621 01:41:00.079 --> 01:41:03.119 his kingdom, that he shall write for himself a copy 1622 01:41:03.279 --> 01:41:07.800 of this book, this law, and a book for the 1623 01:41:07.840 --> 01:41:10.520 one before the priest of Levites. It shall be with him, 1624 01:41:10.560 --> 01:41:12.960 and he shall read it all the days of his life, 1625 01:41:13.319 --> 01:41:16.479 and he shall may that he may learn to fear 1626 01:41:16.520 --> 01:41:18.880 the Lord is God, and be careful to observe all 1627 01:41:18.920 --> 01:41:22.279 the words of this law and these statutes, that his 1628 01:41:22.399 --> 01:41:26.319 heart may not be lifted above his brethren, he may 1629 01:41:26.359 --> 01:41:29.159 not turn aside from the commandment to the right hand 1630 01:41:29.239 --> 01:41:31.239 or to the left, and that he may prolong his 1631 01:41:31.359 --> 01:41:34.000 days in his kingdom, he and his children in the 1632 01:41:34.000 --> 01:41:40.640 midst of Israel. This is a king's duty to the law. 1633 01:41:40.720 --> 01:41:42.800 The king is to write for himself a copy of 1634 01:41:42.800 --> 01:41:46.039 the law, read it all his life, and follow it carefully. 1635 01:41:46.439 --> 01:41:49.239 This personal personal engagement with the law ensures that the 1636 01:41:49.319 --> 01:41:54.800 king remains humble, obedient, and just leading the Nabel, leading 1637 01:41:54.800 --> 01:42:01.680 the Nabel, leading the nation in righteousness vastly important. And 1638 01:42:01.720 --> 01:42:05.840 then the king is instruction around themself. Yeah, we already 1639 01:42:05.840 --> 01:42:09.720 talked about that. The guide, the guidelines for kingship. We 1640 01:42:09.760 --> 01:42:14.560 already talked about that. No evidence, we already talked about 1641 01:42:14.600 --> 01:42:18.600 that perfect Well, the only thing left is going to 1642 01:42:18.680 --> 01:42:24.600 be the practical applications for you guys. Upholding justice ensure 1643 01:42:24.640 --> 01:42:29.720 that justice is pursued with integrity and thoughtfulness and thoroughness 1644 01:42:30.000 --> 01:42:35.359 in your community, reflecting God's standards. Yes, respect for others. 1645 01:42:35.399 --> 01:42:38.680 Recognize and respect the role of leaders and authorities, Understanding 1646 01:42:38.680 --> 01:42:42.880 that God given responsibility to maintain order. Yes, it would 1647 01:42:42.920 --> 01:42:46.439 be nice if everybody that's in government follows God's law 1648 01:42:46.560 --> 01:42:49.399 or God follows what God has to say, or you know, 1649 01:42:49.479 --> 01:42:53.399 we're Christians, but unfortunately we don't have that now, right. 1650 01:42:55.199 --> 01:42:57.960 I know, Roman's thirteen says certain things, you know, and 1651 01:42:58.039 --> 01:43:00.600 it's it's kind of hard to discern us certain things 1652 01:43:00.600 --> 01:43:03.840 with the government that we have, you know, like sometimes 1653 01:43:03.840 --> 01:43:06.720 we have people in power that are. But you know 1654 01:43:06.960 --> 01:43:09.560 it's it's we we get give We get people given 1655 01:43:09.560 --> 01:43:12.960 to us in power because we of our disobedience. So 1656 01:43:13.079 --> 01:43:15.800 you want to have disobedience, then here you're gonna have 1657 01:43:15.840 --> 01:43:22.279 this king or this president or this dictator whatever. It's Uh, 1658 01:43:22.319 --> 01:43:25.920 it's it's sad. But you know we there's people doing abortions, 1659 01:43:25.960 --> 01:43:28.039 and people doing this and that and things that go 1660 01:43:28.119 --> 01:43:31.720 against God and and uh stirring up. Uh, you know, 1661 01:43:31.800 --> 01:43:33.840 God to give you a leader that this is not 1662 01:43:33.920 --> 01:43:37.479 going to be what we want. What you want respect 1663 01:43:37.520 --> 01:43:39.800 for authority, recognize the respector old leaders. Where he talked 1664 01:43:39.800 --> 01:43:43.840 about that leadership and accountability encourage leaders to be accountable 1665 01:43:43.880 --> 01:43:49.039 to God's word, ensuring that they lead with humility and righteousness. Okay. 1666 01:43:50.079 --> 01:43:53.640 Personal devotion to scripture like the king, commit to regular 1667 01:43:53.680 --> 01:43:56.680 reading and meditation on Scripture to guide or decisions and actions. 1668 01:43:57.159 --> 01:43:59.359 That's what I'm talking about. That's why this this this 1669 01:44:00.000 --> 01:44:04.680 study is so important. We're reading God's word every single 1670 01:44:05.680 --> 01:44:10.479 Sunday so and every Wednesday. So I would just encourage 1671 01:44:10.520 --> 01:44:13.479 you guys to stick with this and also encourage you 1672 01:44:13.520 --> 01:44:17.800 to share the show with people that need this message. Okay, 1673 01:44:18.760 --> 01:44:24.119 it's just vastly important during this time, especially because it 1674 01:44:24.199 --> 01:44:30.880 is just as you could tell, people need this right. So, okay, 1675 01:44:31.039 --> 01:44:33.840 that's enough of that chapter. The only thing I can 1676 01:44:33.960 --> 01:44:36.920 kind of tell you guys about is is there any 1677 01:44:36.920 --> 01:44:40.079 scriptures that connect?

Israel so he's 1712 01:46:39.439 --> 01:46:42.960 reminding them once again about no inheritance for The. Levites 1713 01:46:43.560 --> 01:46:45.600 they shall not eat the offerings of The lord made 1714 01:46:45.600 --> 01:46:47.880 by fire and his.

Inheritance, okay so. Listen deuteronomy one through eight 1733 01:47:44.279 --> 01:47:47.560 outlines the provision for the levitical, priests emphasizing the role 1734 01:47:47.960 --> 01:47:50.880 and the community's responsibility to support them the divitical. Priests, 1735 01:47:50.960 --> 01:47:54.119 indeed the whole tribe Of levi shall have no portion 1736 01:47:54.279 --> 01:48:01.960 or inheritance With. Israel they shall eat the, babe they 1737 01:48:01.960 --> 01:48:04.520 shall eat the offerings made by fire to The, lord 1738 01:48:04.600 --> 01:48:10.800 for that is their. Inheritance so we have that going. 1739 01:48:10.840 --> 01:48:19.399 On and Then deuteronomy. Eighteen the chapter assumes that the 1740 01:48:19.439 --> 01:48:24.119 place is not the, events the provision of the vedical, 1741 01:48:24.199 --> 01:48:29.279 Priest so The hebrew term nack a law refers to 1742 01:48:29.319 --> 01:48:33.920 the inheritance or, possession emphasizing that their portion is The lord. 1743 01:48:34.079 --> 01:48:39.800 Himself their portion is The lord. Himself in verse three through, 1744 01:48:39.840 --> 01:48:43.600 five which we went, over this provision is a perpetual, 1745 01:48:43.640 --> 01:48:45.880 statue as The lord has chosen them to serve him 1746 01:48:45.920 --> 01:48:49.640 and bless his. Name, okay that's the, provision is going 1747 01:48:49.720 --> 01:48:53.000 to be the, shoulder the, cheeks the stomach of the. 1748 01:48:53.039 --> 01:48:59.560 Animals right, now we're going to go over avoid wicked, 1749 01:48:59.640 --> 01:49:07.319 Customs avoid wicked, customs and that's going to Be deuteronomy 1750 01:49:07.399 --> 01:49:13.000 nine through.
