Speaker 1: You're listening to KFI on demand. Dean, Welcome to the
Speaker 1: Jesus Christio.
Speaker 2: Jesus, Just Dean.
Speaker 3: In my search for the truth, I want to know
Speaker 3: where if you know, God so loved man, and I
Speaker 3: am a believer. But how come he created so many
Speaker 3: things animals and dinosaurs and things like that for millions
Speaker 3: of gazillions a year before man even shows up on Earth?
Speaker 3: And two, how do Adam and Eve fit in? As
Speaker 3: you know, we have found fossils and remains of like
Speaker 3: cavemen Neanderthals that weren't even walking upright and then they were.
Speaker 3: How does that work? How does that fit in.
Speaker 2: With the local scripture?
Speaker 1: Well, a lot of the dinosaur stuff will focus on
Speaker 1: in just a second, But as far as Neanderthals go,
Speaker 1: there there's a lot of misconception and misunderstanding about Neanderthals
Speaker 1: and what they were. And there's a lot of fabrications
Speaker 1: and garbage that came out that people still think like
Speaker 1: Lucy or Piltdown Man, Java Man, Nebraska Man, all these
Speaker 1: that we have been proven to either be hoaxes, misidentified whatever.
Speaker 1: So there's a lot of garbage out there that people
Speaker 1: still kind of, you know, hold on to thinking that
Speaker 1: that they have all these missing links and evidence. Well,
Speaker 1: the reason why they refer to them as missing links
Speaker 1: is because they don't have them. They have pieces of things,
Speaker 1: and they have bone structures that are in every way,
Speaker 1: shape or form. They might be slightly different looking, but
Speaker 1: there has been no discovery of any of these so
Speaker 1: called Neanderthals that where their anatomy, when looked at, honestly
Speaker 1: comes to any conclusion that states that the motion, the
Speaker 1: type of manipulation, the intellectual capacity, the capacity for language,
Speaker 1: or any of these things were inferior to human beings
Speaker 1: as you know them today. There's even you can find
Speaker 1: stories about scientists going back and forth about the size
Speaker 1: of the nose of Neanderthals because they look large, and
Speaker 1: yet it would have been much colder than by their calculations,
Speaker 1: and it doesn't make sense to have large noses and
Speaker 1: the cold and all these different things. They're still battling
Speaker 1: as to what these things mean, but ultimately you can
Speaker 1: find people even today with similar bone structures as those
Speaker 1: of these so called Neanderthals. So really there's a lot
Speaker 1: more to it than just how fits in scripture. There's
Speaker 1: a lot of questions as to how it fits into science,
Speaker 1: and since it's a forensic science and what they're doing
Speaker 1: with the data at hand and how they're interpreting it,
Speaker 1: it's very easy, Dean for someone to go and look
Speaker 1: at scripture and dismiss it and say, well, that's left
Speaker 1: up to interpretation. But a good scientist will tell you
Speaker 1: that by the very nature of observational science, which is
Speaker 1: what science is, it's observing what's there or what has
Speaker 1: happened in the past and concluding that it will happen
Speaker 1: again that way or that slight variations will be made
Speaker 1: depending on different interactions. That when it comes to a
Speaker 1: past singular event or something that took place that won't
Speaker 1: take place again, just like a murder or a crime scene,
Speaker 1: that they have to trace back in reverse and try
Speaker 1: and understand the information in reverse. And when it comes
Speaker 1: to things like the Neanderthal, there's a mess of speculation
Speaker 1: and doesn't mean there aren't bones, and it doesn't mean
Speaker 1: there aren't bones that worth that are you know, worth
Speaker 1: studying and looking into. But imagine this. If you were
Speaker 1: to find certain types of bones, let's say bones from
Speaker 1: the elephant man or something like that, and you were
Speaker 1: to assume that that was the entirety of that race
Speaker 1: or that people it would be a false assumption. And
Speaker 1: to say that they've found bones and this has to
Speaker 1: be Man because of X, Y, and Z is not
Speaker 1: necessarily a fair statement as well. And there's much more
Speaker 1: to it than that. I just think that there's a
Speaker 1: lot that gets kind of assumed in these questions and
Speaker 1: people don't question it because it has a scientific bent
Speaker 1: to it. So people feel like you're going to look
Speaker 1: like the stupid Christian who is questioning science and all
Speaker 1: of those things, and that's just it's not fair. There
Speaker 1: are many things in science that change often. Evolution is
Speaker 1: one of them that changes often because there's no definitive
Speaker 1: answer and there's constant new information coming in that makes
Speaker 1: them go, Okay, this was wrong. Just like many of
Speaker 1: those original finds that I mentioned. When it comes to
Speaker 1: a lot of those original finds, Puilt Down Man, Lucy
Speaker 1: Java Man, Nebraska Man, these types of things, it took
Speaker 1: a while for it to come out that many of
Speaker 1: them were hoaxes, or they were this one skull cap
Speaker 1: mixed with a different jaw, and sure, you combine these
Speaker 1: together and you have problems. Just like the Bronosaurus, which
Speaker 1: doesn't exist anymore because it was science putting the wrong
Speaker 1: head on the wrong body. And so those things happen,
Speaker 1: and it doesn't mean you should throw science out. Science
Speaker 1: is not the enemy of faith in any way, shape
Speaker 1: or form. But it's to understand them in their context. Now,
Speaker 1: how do they play a part in scripture? Well, first,
Speaker 1: I would argue that the Neanderthal didn't exist in the
Speaker 1: sense that modern day science continues to say that it did,
Speaker 1: and that there's no evidence for it to exist in
Speaker 1: that way. The cave dwelling in the same way, did
Speaker 1: humans live in caves? Absolutely, You can go to Israel
Speaker 1: today and see caves. I was born in one, essentially.
Speaker 1: So there are those that confused the concept of that
Speaker 1: type of cave dwelling and they say, well, what about
Speaker 1: the paintings on walls, Well, there's painting on walls today.
Speaker 1: It's really looking into that attitude. There's this sense of
Speaker 1: attitude this comes along with evolution and the concept of
Speaker 1: evolution that you are better than people that came prior.
Speaker 1: There's a strange form of arrogance that comes with looking
Speaker 1: at the pyramids and some of the ancient discoveries and
Speaker 1: modern man continues, go, they couldn't have done it. They
Speaker 1: just couldn't have done it because obviously they were dumber
Speaker 1: than us and didn't have microchips and didn't have the
Speaker 1: proper leveraging systems and all. But says who, Now, of
Speaker 1: course they didn't have microchips. But to say that they
Speaker 1: were just because they were technologically simpler, that they weren't
Speaker 1: as equally as intelligent or couldn't come up with ways
Speaker 1: to do it would be wrong, because they did come
Speaker 1: up with ways to do it. So so amazing are
Speaker 1: the ways that they did that people continue to this
Speaker 1: day try and say, well, it was flying saucers and
Speaker 1: spacemen and all these things. Anyways, So having said that,
Speaker 1: I will tell you that there are different arguments by
Speaker 1: different people, theologians and like that, as to whether dinosaurs
Speaker 1: are mentioned in scripture. Some feel that in Job forty
Speaker 1: and forty one dinosaurs are mentioned by way of the
Speaker 1: Leafayatin and the Bohemoit. So it is on your interpretation
Speaker 1: and understanding of those context. There's nothing wrong to say
Speaker 1: that if Job isn't speaking about dinosaurs, that they played
Speaker 1: a part of some purpose that wasn't a wasn't necessarily
Speaker 1: known or isn't known today, so it doesn't play a
Speaker 1: part in the narrative of scripture because it's not important
Speaker 1: to the narrative of scripture, just like every single person
Speaker 1: isn't important in the narrative. Scripture talks about certain people
Speaker 1: because they help understand and paint the lineage of humankind
Speaker 1: and help teach principles that God wants to teach, but
Speaker 1: not everything's in there doesn't specifically talk about everything that
Speaker 1: was created. It says in scripture that there were creatures created,
Speaker 1: great and small. There's a lot that can fit in
Speaker 1: there if you allow it to. Mary Louise, you there.
Speaker 1: I'm well, I'm glad you turned down that radio and
Speaker 1: you are present. How can I help you?
Speaker 4: I didn't have the radio on. Honestly, I think the
Speaker 4: devil just didn't want me to get a.
Speaker 5: Hold of you.
Speaker 1: Oh boy, well, we'll just cast him out and continue on.
Speaker 1: How can I help you?
Speaker 4: I'm really curious. I was speaking to someone from a
Speaker 4: Catholic university and the discussion came up of artificial insemination,
Speaker 4: and I was under the impression that that was a
Speaker 4: good thing. When somebody wants to have children and they
Speaker 4: can't have it on their own that to populate the
Speaker 4: world with more of us, so to speak. And I
Speaker 4: was surprised when she told me it was supposed to
Speaker 4: be sinful, and I go, WHOA, what do you mean
Speaker 4: because it's artificial? And I said, well, in a way,
Speaker 4: didn't Jesus himself get boring because he was artificially insiminated.
Speaker 1: I mean, whether it was dumb, my daughter, that's a
Speaker 1: tiny bit of a stretch, but there is a way.
Speaker 1: I think. I think it's good that you're at least
Speaker 1: thinking through it and coming up with arguments. Well, this
Speaker 1: program doesn't necessarily focus on a particular church's doctrine. We
Speaker 1: look at them as a whole, and thankfully we've got
Speaker 1: Catholics and Protestants that listen as well as skeptics and
Speaker 1: atheists and Jews and Muslims and everyone else in between.
Speaker 1: So but we still focus on what Scripture has to
Speaker 1: say and truth. So when it comes to artificial insemination,
Speaker 1: I think that the Catholic Church has their dogma and
Speaker 1: you have to also understand that just because someone who
Speaker 1: says they're Catholic, or even somebody who's at a Catholic
Speaker 1: university says that that's wrong doesn't necessarily mean that's where
Speaker 1: the Catholic Church stands officially. So that's first source you
Speaker 1: should go to is find out where the Catholic Church,
Speaker 1: if you are Catholic, stands officially. However, I will say
Speaker 1: this that if someone tells you because it says artificial
Speaker 1: in it, that it's bad is ridiculous. Is really a
Speaker 1: silly argument. And I hope they're not drinking any milk
Speaker 1: or eating any bacon, because most livestock are bread by
Speaker 1: way of artificial ascemination, so that it might be artificial
Speaker 1: meat or artificial milk they're eating or drinking, and that
Speaker 1: could be a problem in their view. Now that does
Speaker 1: that mean that every use of artificial incimination is good?
Speaker 1: Certainly not. However, the concept of it being artificial is silly.
Speaker 1: It just is. It's like saying that God doesn't want
Speaker 1: you to cross this divide because there's no bridge, and
Speaker 1: any bridge you make would be a man made bridge,
Speaker 1: which would be artificial. It wouldn't be of the mountain itself,
Speaker 1: and therefore you shouldn't cross it. And that's just that's
Speaker 1: not a fair statement that throws out much of medicine.
Speaker 1: They should never take any antibiotics or anything like that,
Speaker 1: or any synthetic medicines or it just it opens up
Speaker 1: a whole wealth of problems. It doesn't mean that it
Speaker 1: can't be misused. It doesn't mean that there aren't some
Speaker 1: moral issues if it's applied in certain ways, but as
Speaker 1: a whole, as a concept or as a need, absolutely not.
Speaker 1: There are there are people who want to have children
Speaker 1: that have some issues that you know, are married and
Speaker 1: they want to have a child, and it can be done. John,
Speaker 1: Welcome to the Jesus Christ Show.
Speaker 2: Good morning, Jesus.
Speaker 1: Hi John, what's going on?
Speaker 2: I wanted to run something by you, Yes, sir. About
Speaker 2: twenty five years ago, I was a victim of an
Speaker 2: attempted homicide. A guy stole my wallet, ripped me open,
Speaker 2: Oh good, and I ended up being clinically dead for
Speaker 2: a couple of minutes. Soon and I had an out
Speaker 2: of body experience and in that I met an angel
Speaker 2: and I thought, you know, when I saw him, I
Speaker 2: said you must be Gabriel because he was just like
Speaker 2: so glorious and he was like, no, I'm just you know,
Speaker 2: you run in the mill angel. Anyways, nicolong story short,
Speaker 2: I saw the gates of Heaven, and I saw the
Speaker 2: gates of Hell. And then when I came to at
Speaker 2: the Marine base because out of the Navy at the time,
Speaker 2: the guy tried to stole my wallet or whatever. So
Speaker 2: for a long time I didn't tell anybody about it
Speaker 2: because I thought if I'd say anything to anybody, who
Speaker 2: would just take out his nuts. Right, And so now
Speaker 2: about coming up on three years. So as a matter
Speaker 2: of fact, kind of ironic, on Easter Sunday, I survived
Speaker 2: six heart attacks and open heart surgery all on one day.
Speaker 6: And I you know, when I got out.
Speaker 2: Of surgery and survived it and stuff, everybody around me
Speaker 2: seemed like I was supposed to be like grateful and happy,
Speaker 2: you know, after it happened, and that was the total opposite.
Speaker 2: I was just like, I guess, you know, I just
Speaker 2: started running, like you know, memory running. You know, I
Speaker 2: just wanted to, like, you know, run away from the
Speaker 2: situation and everything that's going on. And so now it's
Speaker 2: the point where you know, I've got coronary art or disease.
Speaker 2: They told me I only got a couple more years
Speaker 2: to live, and so I'm sitting here, you know, I've
Speaker 2: lost everything. My wife left me over it, and like
Speaker 2: I'm living in my truck and I'm just like kind
Speaker 2: of lost, and I'm kind of like thinking of myself.
Speaker 2: You know. Well, the first place that I have is
Speaker 2: I don't know what the Bible says about if there
Speaker 2: are such things as a guardian angel. And the second
Speaker 2: thing is I'm like thinking to myself, you know, what
Speaker 2: do I do in this situation with what time I
Speaker 2: got left?
Speaker 5: You know?
Speaker 2: You know, I'm just kind of like I'm lost. I
Speaker 2: don't know, you know what I'm going to do? You
Speaker 2: know where I'm going to go? You know, I'm just
Speaker 2: kind of like the left fields.
Speaker 1: You know what day to day, aren't you? John?
Speaker 6: Oh?
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, that's It's obviously the story that you tell
Speaker 1: is horrific. I mean, all the accounts of it being
Speaker 1: mugged and left for dead, and all the ailments and
Speaker 1: things that have gone on in your life since sound
Speaker 1: equally as horrible. You're definitely in a situation that calls
Speaker 1: for intense and deep faith. Now I will put that
Speaker 1: on hold for one second to answer your theology question,
Speaker 1: and then we'll go back to it. As far as
Speaker 1: angels are concerned, or our guardian angels are concerned. There's
Speaker 1: nothing in scripture that says everyone has a guardian angel. However,
Speaker 1: scripture is clear that that angels do guard over believers
Speaker 1: most definitely and oversee things in the world in general.
Speaker 1: And one verse that is used quite often to talk
Speaker 1: about or to point to, guardian angels is Matthew eighteen
Speaker 1: ten that says, see that you do not look down
Speaker 1: on one of these little ones, for I tell you
Speaker 1: that their angel, they are angels in heaven. Always see
Speaker 1: the face of my Father in heaven. And people go
Speaker 1: back and forth as to what little ones is referring to.
Speaker 1: People go back and forth on what their angel the
Speaker 1: term their angels in heaven, and really most most theologians
Speaker 1: believe that it's not about having a specific angel. It's
Speaker 1: about having angels overlook the things that go on around
Speaker 1: your life as a whole. So there's nothing you can find.
Speaker 1: I know, these concept of guardian angels have become very popular,
Speaker 1: and there's books about it and all these things, but
Speaker 1: really scripture doesn't say much on that concept. It really
Speaker 1: is more about that God is in control. Angels are
Speaker 1: messengers and God uses them uh as he needs them
Speaker 1: between heaven and earth. But as far as what you're
Speaker 1: going through, which is what I'm concerned about right this moment,
Speaker 1: is all of these things are happening to you, and
Speaker 1: you you sound like you're you're incredibly strong under the circumstances.
Speaker 1: Are you asking me what your next step is or
Speaker 1: what you should do with the time that you have left?
Speaker 2: Yeah, because I just I I have no doubt that,
Speaker 2: I have no doubt that you know that you're looking
Speaker 2: for my savior, my Lord and Savior. And the thing is,
Speaker 2: I find myself I don't want to. I was brought up,
Speaker 2: and I was brought up where you let you actually
Speaker 2: speak so loud, no one hears you talking. I kind
Speaker 2: of when I see people, you know, with the you
Speaker 2: stick on the corner with the with the signs, and
Speaker 2: the guys protesting in front of borts and clinics and
Speaker 2: stuff like that, or people that go around confessing that
Speaker 2: they're they're Christian. To me, just you know, there's a
Speaker 2: verse in the bibble and maybe you can correct me
Speaker 2: if I'm wronging, so that shall not be a hypocrite
Speaker 2: and praise my name in the streets.
Speaker 1: You know, well, yes, it's speaking about those that would pray.
Speaker 1: Part of it ties into what we spoke about earlier
Speaker 1: in Matthew that there were those that would pray and
Speaker 1: go out in the street to pray and so that
Speaker 1: everyone could see them, but they were as hypocrites and
Speaker 1: rather than you know, doing it in private and being
Speaker 1: you know, spending time with God and knowing that God
Speaker 1: sees those things. In Matthew six ' two, so I
Speaker 1: agree with you that is to live in a way
Speaker 1: nobe ever goes, oh, that guy's a crazy Christian because
Speaker 1: he does good things. And if you live in a
Speaker 1: way that inspires other people, it makes your life value.
Speaker 1: You're already ahead of the game, even though that you've
Speaker 1: had a rough road. No one's going to deny that, John,
Speaker 1: you've had a rough road.
Speaker 2: But the thing that I remember distinctly is when I
Speaker 2: was at the gates of Hell. And it wasn't until
Speaker 2: a couple of years later that I met somebody and
Speaker 2: he had this summer in the Bible just describes the
Speaker 2: gates at Hell, and its just it was like dead on,
Speaker 2: you know. And the one thing I remember was like
Speaker 2: his iron plaid gates almost and he was like a dead,
Speaker 2: dead fig tree. And what was ironic because as I
Speaker 2: saw somebody at that gate, and it turned out that
Speaker 2: when I came out of the common and went home
Speaker 2: on a medical league, I found out that this guy
Speaker 2: that I grew up with was running from the law
Speaker 2: and he ended up getting in an accident and he
Speaker 2: got captiated by a road sciences on the motorcycle. Anyways,
Speaker 2: and I'll never forget to look on his face. Its
Speaker 2: just like absolute fear. But I remember the one thing
Speaker 2: I remember sensing was there was a complete absence of
Speaker 2: all hope. And I don't know, I'm just kind.
Speaker 6: Of like confused because I know that you know the
Speaker 6: type of lifestyle that I live, I think I live.
Speaker 6: Maybe you know I crammed in three free lifetimes in
Speaker 6: a short time I been here.
Speaker 1: You know, well the good the good thing, John, I
Speaker 1: know that there's a lot of circumstances going on in
Speaker 1: your life. I know that you're that there's different emotions
Speaker 1: that go with the you know what they're telling you,
Speaker 1: the length of time you have, all these things, all
Speaker 1: the horrific things you've experienced, it doesn't change anything. And
Speaker 1: I want to really focus this, uh. And I appreciate
Speaker 1: you that that you've been so honest with your call
Speaker 1: as well. But I want to bring it back that
Speaker 1: nothing changes if you have one hundred years on this planet,
Speaker 1: if you have one hundred minutes on this planet, it's
Speaker 1: always going to be the same. We've said on the
Speaker 1: show over and over again that the the meaning of
Speaker 1: life is simply this, to utilize your gifts and abilities
Speaker 1: along lines of excellence, to the edification of others, to
Speaker 1: the edification of yourself, to the glory of God. That
Speaker 1: doesn't change at any time for any reason. As ugly
Speaker 1: as things may have been for you, John, and the
Speaker 1: path that you've been on was a rocky one and
Speaker 1: continues to be that you always live by the attitude
Speaker 1: that you have. I love that you say that your
Speaker 1: action should speak so loudly that people can't even hear
Speaker 1: you talking. That if you live in a way that
Speaker 1: inspires others, that if you live in a way that
Speaker 1: shows what you believe rather than just telling somebody what
Speaker 1: you believe, then you're doing it right. And that doesn't change.
Speaker 1: And it's a sad thought to think that there is
Speaker 1: a limit that seems so tangible when it gets down
Speaker 1: to years and someone telling you you, oh, you have
Speaker 1: this disease, You only have x amount of years to live.
Speaker 1: But it doesn't change the game.
Speaker 3: I know.
Speaker 1: Emotionally, it makes you think, well, what am I doing?
Speaker 1: Am I doing the right thing? Am I going through this?
Speaker 1: Am I going through that? But ultimately the game doesn't
Speaker 1: change at all. And if you think about the things
Speaker 1: that you do in life when you're young, one of
Speaker 1: the biggest problems is that as people get older, they
Speaker 1: tend to start changing the game because of fears. Well,
Speaker 1: I'm not as young as I used to be, so
Speaker 1: I don't want to start over all these things, and
Speaker 1: so you end up muting your abilities. The game doesn't
Speaker 1: need to change. Doesn't mean that you shouldn't be wise
Speaker 1: and think about the time and be prudent. But what
Speaker 1: I want from you, John, is the same thing I've
Speaker 1: always wanted from you, to serve me to live a
Speaker 1: life that is God centered, that glorifies God, that will
Speaker 1: teach and inspire others to want to know about God.
Speaker 1: And that doesn't change now. As a matter of fact,
Speaker 1: you've inspired people just by telling your story. Then there
Speaker 1: will be those that roll their eyes about the near
Speaker 1: death experience and all those things. And why don't you
Speaker 1: talk more about this and talk about this and new people.
Speaker 1: I don't want to get into that theology right now.
Speaker 1: What I want to do is just talk to you
Speaker 1: John and explain that all of those experiences you've been
Speaker 1: through in life have brought you to today and made
Speaker 1: you who you are. You continue to walk from this
Speaker 1: day forward, however, many days that might be glorifying God
Speaker 1: in very real and tangible ways that will move, teach
Speaker 1: and inspire Rob. Welcome to the Jesus Christ Show.
Speaker 5: Yeah, say hi, hi, Hi Jesus. I got a I
Speaker 5: got an issue with the whole concept of God is good.
Speaker 5: I'm gonna I'm gonna talk about the flood first, Okay,
Speaker 5: you tried to kill humanity with a flood. And then
Speaker 5: Abraham's son what kind of what kind of life did
Speaker 5: eleven year old have after his dad tried to stick
Speaker 5: a knife in his chest? Angel an angel, stop the
Speaker 5: hand before it plunged into his chest. And then Sodom
Speaker 5: and Gomorrah. I mean, I just I cannot. I can't
Speaker 5: imagine praising a god who who does these horrible evil things.
Speaker 5: I mean, can can you help me?
Speaker 2: Can you help me to well?
Speaker 1: Well, I hope, but really that's going to be up
Speaker 1: to you. Those are all excellent examples. However, they are
Speaker 1: partial examples of a bigger picture if you look at
Speaker 1: it as a concept of purification and testing the character
Speaker 1: of an individual so they can see it, not so
Speaker 1: God can see it. God always sees the character of
Speaker 1: the individual. But as you're talking about with with Abraham,
Speaker 1: and if you read that, he says, what before he
Speaker 1: goes up the hill? He tells those men? What does
Speaker 1: he tell them before he goes up that hill to
Speaker 1: allegedly kill.
Speaker 5: His to be told, I don't have a Bible in
Speaker 5: front of me, and I can't remember any of that.
Speaker 1: Okay, Well, are these just three things that you've kind
Speaker 1: of taken and held on to and said, well, you know,
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna study anymore or no, no, okay.
Speaker 5: Because I've been studying compared to religion and human mythos
Speaker 5: for probably fifteen years.
Speaker 2: Now.
Speaker 1: Okay, Well, I would recommend going back and read this
Speaker 1: because you'll love this part. He says to them, I
Speaker 1: and the boy will return. Now, if he was going
Speaker 1: to kill him doesn't make sense. But what does make
Speaker 1: sense is either this is a man who won knows
Speaker 1: that his God would never call him to kill his
Speaker 1: child or two, that his that if he did kill him,
Speaker 1: God would resurrect him either way. He had a different
Speaker 1: mentality than you might have today. That he knew he
Speaker 1: was so faithful. He said, I and the boy are
Speaker 1: going to return. Why would you say that if you
Speaker 1: were going to go do something like that? And if
Speaker 1: you if you go through all of those examples, you're
Speaker 1: talking about the purification of a people, not the ratification.
Speaker 1: If it was to eradicate, God would have eradicated. But
Speaker 1: it was about the purification. Now, now you may not
Speaker 1: understand that, but you know, uh, my producer Neil doesn't
Speaker 1: understand why people dress up their their dogs.
Speaker 5: It. But the purification of a people is that it
Speaker 5: is that? Is that a loving thing to do?
Speaker 1: Yes, it is, but not Here's the thing. You can't
Speaker 1: steal your your own property, Rob, So it depends on
Speaker 1: who the person is, even though the act is exactly
Speaker 1: the same. So although there are things that you can't do, Rob,
Speaker 1: you can't expect people to worship you either. You can't
Speaker 1: have proper jealousy. God can. God can have righteous jealousy.
Speaker 1: You cannot. So there are things that God can do
Speaker 1: that you can't. And anthropomorphically, Rob, if you try and
Speaker 1: apply human attributes to God the Father and say well
Speaker 1: God can't do this or what have you, then you're
Speaker 1: gonna end up running into problems. But God is not
