00:01 We thank you for joining us for 3ABN Today,
00:03 Bible Q and A. 00:04 We just have a few moments left at the end of the program. 00:06 I want to give each one of you an opportunity 00:08 for final thoughts. 00:09 We'll start with you, Pastor James. 00:11 Well, I love, this is my first program. 00:12 You all know that. So I love this program. 00:14 I love questions and answers. 00:16 One of the things that really hit me 00:17 as I was listening 'cause you know, 00:19 these guys went first, which really helped me too was, 00:21 we have such a variety of approaches to the scriptures 00:26 and the way we answer scriptures. 00:27 A number of the questions that you guys answered, 00:29 I wouldn't have approached it that way, 00:31 but I was so blessed by the approach 00:33 and by the thoughts you were bringing out. 00:34 And I just thought, you know, the Word of God 00:35 is so beautiful in that way that you can have 00:38 different personalities approaching it 00:39 from different angles and coming up with insights 00:42 that can really be a blessing. 00:43 Amen. Beautiful. 00:44 Amen. Yeah. 00:46 So Jesus says in John 14:6, 00:47 "I am the way, the truth and the life." 00:49 And it's interesting because three times, 00:50 John 14, 15, and 16, He refers to the Spirit 00:53 as the Spirit of truth. 00:55 And back to that question regarding the blasphemy 00:58 of the Holy Spirit. 00:59 You know, when we reject truth, 01:00 that is the truth of God's Word, 01:02 we are ultimately rejecting Christ 01:04 and our conscience is slowly becoming seared 01:08 and sealed by deceiving spirits. 01:10 Of course, I'm referencing 1 Timothy 4:1-2. 01:12 So, we've got to make sure that our conscience 01:14 doesn't become seared with the devil's deceptions, 01:17 but be intact with the Holy Spirit's guidance. 01:20 Amen. 01:21 I just want to remind you that we cannot substitute 01:23 human authority for the authority of Christ. 01:26 Only God can forgive sin. 01:29 And Micah 7:18 says, 01:32 "Who is a God like You, pardoning iniquity 01:34 and passing over the transgression 01:37 of His heritage? 01:39 He will cast all our sins into the depths of the sea." 01:44 Amen. What a promise. 01:45 That's beautiful. 01:47 I love what you shared Pastor James, 01:48 'cause I liked that about Bible Q and A, 01:50 because we get to learn from each other. 01:51 What a gift that is. 01:53 Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge 01:54 of the Word and your knowledge of Jesus. 01:56 And we thank you for joining us. 01:58 We'll see you next Monday. |
