You are a liar you said we are not under the LAW time stamp 2:53 The are NO contradictions in the Word/Laws of God Rom 7:1 Know ye not, brethren, (for I speak to them that know the law,) how that the law hath dominion over a man as long as he liveth? Rom 8:4 That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. Rom 8:7 Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be. Heb 8:10 For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, saith the Lord; I will put my laws into their mind, and write them in their hearts: and I will be to them a God, and they shall be to me a people: John 1:1 In the beginning was the LAWS OF GOD and the LAWS OF GOD was with God and the LAWS OF GOD was God John 1:14 And the LAWS OF GOD was made flesh ( Jesus ) and dwelt ( Tabernacled ) among us full of GRACE and TRUTH 2Co_3:6 Who also hath made us able ministers of the new testament; not of the letter, but of the spirit: for the letter killeth, but the spirit giveth life. However it's the LAWS OF GOD that do both Kill and Give Life This is the Baptism that Jesus and the Apostle's were Baptizing people with The LETTER of the LAWS OF GOD is what crucifies our ( Carnal ) mind It's the nails we use to hang ourselves upon the cross when we pick up our cross and die daily The SPIRIT of the LAWS OF GOD is the ( Righteousness ) of the Laws of God that Resurrects us into a New Creature a New Creation in Christ THIS IS YOUR BAPTISM
I agree with all your points. I think if someone comes to Jesus through dreams and visions, they can also turn away from Jesus through the same dreams and visions, or by the same spirit that first appeared to them.and having your Christianity built on experience seems to me a house built on sand. This topic has been around for a long time, and has divided the church. How I understand the church age is that we live by faith, not by sight. The Holy Spirit indwells us, which didn't happen under the Old Covenant, we have completed Scripture, Jesus has died and risen again, and we have the witness of all Scripture that our faith is grounded in the truth of Jesus. We are also told in Romans 1 that the Gospel is the means of salvation in the church age given through Christians. There is also no need of dreams or visions as we have all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of him who called us to His own glory and excellence. 2nd Peter 1:3. In the tribulation there will again be signs and wonders as we are told in Joel, and the 2 witnesses in Rev. 11. The church age is a time like no other, and will finish at the rapture,when the church is raptured. We are told about dreams, signs and wonders in the day of the Lord, and we have Rev. 11 that tells us about the2 witnesses. If you are interested and haven't already read it I recommend an article by Denis Mcbride, An Evaluation of Muslim dreams and Visions.It is posted on tottministries.org.org. It's posted in 2 parts.
Well I have to say something,have you read the testimony of Pilate which has been verified and is catalogued as authentic,Pilate describes Jesus as Golden in appearance and coloring, yeah, I was shocked, too, just search, Pilates testimony
The problem with this entire video is that the scripture used to say "where 2 or more" are gathered together. It you don't know that then you don't get what's going on. Scripture is being changed a lot by the enemy. Saying 2 or 3 is so wrong.
What I’ve noticed, is that the majority of all these people saying “Christ is King” are all either Roman catholics or Eastern Orthodox. But “the Church” believes in amillenialism, they believe the dynasty of popes (starting with Gregory the Great around 600 AD, NOT the apostle Peter) and the Jesuit order along with all the other papal Orders (knights of Columbus, Opus Dei, all the freemasonic clubs) will bring perfection to this world and prepare the world for Christ to return. Completely heretical, the destruction of “the Church” (Roman) will be betrayed and destroyed by the Beast as Revelation 17-18 reads. Rome is the city that sits on seven hills, this has been always accounted for by ancient historians and modern day historians all agree that Rome is the only city that fits the description of sitting on seven hills, which can all be accounted for by looking at a map. “The Church” lies and says it’s Jerusalem, which sits on Mt. Zion, just one hill. I just find it bewildering how far the Roman church has gone astray. The people that came to be known as the Waldenses (or the Vaudois) of the valley of Piedmont and the Alps were actually members of the Roman church until around 150-200 AD when a certain pastor named Cornelius was ordained and he brought in heresy to the church at Rome, started focusing on how important the pastor is and how much power the bishop has over the church as given to him by Christ. They left because of the continuing apostasy. The Roman church LOVED Emperor Constantine because now the Roman church thought they could do whatever they wanted now and didn’t have to hide anymore. This was right at/after the same time that pagan Rome was persecuting and wiping out groups such as the Donatists, the novationists, the montanists, and it was either the Paulicians of Armenia who were attacked as well but what the Roman church started calling “the Cathari” (meaning the pure people) but it was a derogatory term because they called them heretics. Ever since the church at Rome fell into idolatry and wickedness, calling the pastor of that church “Holy Father” (blasphemy as that title is only used once by the Lord Jesus Christ himself speaking to the Father). Your pope literally calls himself “the vicar of Christ on earth” meaning he is basically standing in the place of the Lord Himself here on earth. I still can’t believe that almost 2000 years ago, the church at Rome who put millions of actual Christians to death for daring to oppose their false doctrine throughout the dark ages, not only tried corrupting and changing the Bible, but also kept it in Latin even after the only people speaking Latin were the members of the church at Rome…pretending it’s some “sacred language” or something, and arresting and murdering anyone who dared to translate the scriptures into the common language of the people…it’s why it’s called the dark ages because the church at Rome was purposely keeping the light of the scriptures hidden from the people and teaching them what the Bible says, but they could just make up whatever they wanted, on top of reading from a corrupt text. You’re all part of a feminine goddess cult, it’s constant Marian worship. I always found it weird that the second commandment of the Ten Commandments specifically says not to make graven images, when the church at Rome is FILLED with grave images and idols….which I was always told “oh we don’t WORSHIP Mary and the saints, we just venerate them and ask them to pray for us.” That’s called trying to contact the dead…completely condemned in the law of God. Your popes with the golden and silver keys…the gold key representing spiritual power and the silver key representing the temporal power of “the Church.” I used to be forced to go to catholic school and church as a boy before the Lord saved me at 26 years old. I knew the catholic traditions and “sacraments” were stupid and meaningless, I just didn’t know why I thought that way yet. I just knew that I learned the Bible going to the Baptist church. I don’t remember even having a bible when I was forced by my mother to be a catholic as a child. Your first pope was Gregory “The Great” around 600 AD or so. That was the beginning of the dynasty of popes. Sorry, the apostle Peter was apparently put to death by Rome just as Paul was put to death, Peter crucified and Paul beheaded. Peter would have found what happened to the church at Rome that Paul planted in Caesar’s house as the wicked abomination that Whore is. Revelation 18:4 And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues. Revelation 18:5 For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities. I can’t wait for a world where the church at Rome is destroyed and gone for good: for strong is the Lord God who judgeth her. The church at Rome has a ton of blood on their hands. The souls of all those Christians that just simply wanted to live in peace and by every word of the scriptures…their blood cries out from the ground for vengeance against Rome. God hasn’t forgotten things like the destruction of the Waldenses and genocide of the Albigenses of France. Or how about St Bartholomew’s Day massacre in France? Or sticking spears through the wives of waldensian pastors up through their vagina through their shoulder blade and then burnt them alive after some atrocious suffering. Dashed the babies upon the rocks of the Alps (funny how the Bible in Psalms refers to the Babylonians doing the same thing to the children of the Jews in their time, it’s why the church at Rome is called “MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.” (Revelation 17:5)
Church government regulations? Its like asking the Holy Spirit to come to the meeting when He's already present in true believers.
Thanks for the informative video, what do you mean when you keep saying we are not under the law?
House fellowships 2 or 3 ideal No one person dominating!
Maybe, but that assertion is un-Biblical and not what the verse is about.
Maybe Jesus could see mega churches emerging and leader Domination! If it were possible the very elect would be deceived 2cor11v14.15
@@angloaust1575 You might have a point there!
Two or more gathered together in my name are not taxed for their salvation with an offering plate.
Well, not 'taxed', no - 'cheerful giving', not a tithe, is the expectation for a Christian to give to those who preach, but there is no provision for giving in order to have a great cathedral or a temple or a priesthood. Thanks for the comment
@@theworkman317 Having an offering plate passed around is a "well to do" persons chance to impress, and a poor mans chance to be embarrassed. You pray in private, you give in private, otherwise it is publicity.
@@larryphelps6607 That is certainly a danger! Thank goodness for online giving, right? In any case, with all the financial controls we have 'someone', other than God, is going to see what you are giving, even if it's just the church treasurer. Certainly, it should not be publicity.
@@theworkman317 how much did The Christ charge for each portion of the loaves and fishes? Did he pass an offering plate at the sermon on the mount? Perhaps if each person gave to those he sees in need rather than to the church even the treasurer will not know. The root word of treasurer is treasure. If our reward is in heaven, why would a church need treasure? Matthew 6 1-8.
@@larryphelps6607 Lots of questions, but not really coherent. Let me know when you get answers to those questions!
No one has a monopoly on God!
Thanks for the comment, but, yes, SOMEONE or some religion must have a 'monopoly' on God. In other words, someone has the truth. There is a God or there isn't - The Muslim god is correct or the Christian God is correct, they can't both be correct. So, logically, there is a correct religion and that is the one which worships Jesus Christ and his work of death, burial, and resurrection in order to pay for the sins of the world and belief in Him is all you need for salvation.
Very good video, really appreciate it! Here is another video on this subject to check out; search for... Rightly Dividing with Ron Anderson, Where Two or Three are gathered... Together? This Doesn't Mean That!
Thanks so much!
Many, many moons ago my wife came home with a booked called What Did Jesus Mean ? by theologian Ron Rhodes. That booked covered covered many of these misconceptions including this one. Your stance is right in line with that author. Well, with scripture.
Thanks for the comment, I will look up Ron Rhodes
Why you censored jesus?
That's a good question. Naturally, I think it has nothing to do with Jesus. We do not have a covenant with God - a quid pro quo - so, we cannot bargain with Him and we cannot expect that submission to Him will end up with financial benefits. Clearly, this is not part of the Gospel of Grace and so I call it out because Jesus hasn't anything to do with it. Thanks again for the question
Maybe it is important to know that Jesus is not the Jesus of cushy lifestyles and money on trees, He Himself was poor, misunderstood, rejected, betrayed, broken, and killed - the most innocent was treated the worst. His Grace is sufficient; there is nothing above the sacrifice of Himself that you should want above the eternal life that He promises.
God takes care of people in different ways. The man who received checks, needed money. That was what happened in his life. Not everyone's miracle from God is financial. It depends on what the person needs, and it's not about how much faith they have. Another person might find a much needed friend. Don't take this video as always a financial situation.
The point is not the financial stuff, but God is not 'taking care' of you. You have no covenant with Him - the way God takes care of you and me is through His grace which, when Paul was looking for healing, He said was sufficient. In this age of grace you will not 'get what you need' in physical terms 'trusting in God' - there is no 'quid pro quo', that is what the Jews had under their covenant. Thanks for the comment
Bad take dude, sometimes you need that visual reminder to snap you out of whatever mental hell you're going through, the stress of combat or even daily hardships caan tunnel vissing you in darkness and that little trinket can snap you out of it, remind you of hope and perpose.
I gave this comment a thumbs up because you called me "dude" instead of "bro"! Whatever hell you are going through, focus on truth; focus on God; focus on scripture's amazing promises and hope, but do not focus on a piece of metal with the image of a dead dude as if that will somehow help you. Find a way to snap out of it that is focused on what is real, not what is mystical. Thanks for the comment.
Shut the fuck up dude let people believe in what they wanna believe and let people have faith in what they want to have faith then. Who gives you any right to tell someone what they can and cannot believe in. Jesus also said, accept your neighbor as they are so don’t be the fake Christian telling people how to believe
Ur full of shit if a VIETNAM VETERAN BELIEVES keyword BELIEVES a saint Christopher medal will protect him and guide him to safety in time of war and if you know what the medal means protection and safe travel for travelers and yes it came from Catholic religion but all religions use it INCLUDING YOURS so don't push ur ideas of ur way of God onto people god accepts all and loves all and forgives all let the people believe what they want to and if someone of a different religion were to say the same thing you did you wouldn't like it
Thanks for your comment. The technical term is: Syncretism. In plain words: bringing goofy stuff into the one true religion. Letting other people 'believe what they want' is the least kind thing to do. Scripture will show you truth and if you have a glimpse of the truth you should share it... so, I do.
@@austintucker3414 God bless you and guide in on all truth. I am always praying for discernment when I am reading my Bible.
Cringe
"Cringe". St. Christopher medals are cringe, the idea is cringe, the video is cringe, or 'none of the above'? Curious about your cringe.
😮you are right, our faith is in Christ alone. I feel if I put faith in anything else, I am into idol worship.No man made objects have any power at all. This is sinful and is against God. If you lose the metal,will you lose your faith.?
Thanks very much for your comment!
It's not, "One Timothy". It's "First Timothy". It's not a numeral, it's an ordinal. It expresses the ORDer of the books. This is the FIRST epistle of Paul to Timothy, not the One epistle of Paul to Timothy. Used in this way, the number 1 is an ABBREVIATION for the word, "first". We don't come to the abbreviation, "Mt." and say, "Em Tee Everest". We say, "Mount Everest". We don't come to, "Blvd." and say, "Bee Ell Vee Dee", we say "boulevard". The 1, 2, or 3 in front of a Bible book is exactly the same thing - an abbreviation. It happens to be a number, but it is not pronounced as the number. By the way, if you'd like to tackle another thing that is almost universally believed, but is not in Scripture, look up singing angels some time. Then look up the first song in Scripture, and the last song in Scripture. You might be surprised.
Point taken - and thanks for the singing angels idea! That makes me think of the fact that all angels (messengers) in the Bible are male... or 'present as male'... anyway, today, whenever we think of angels, we usually think of a female. This can be seen in Chat-gpt; ask it for a picture of an angel and see what you get. Thanks for the comment.
@@theworkman317 " That makes me think of the fact that all angels (messengers) in the Bible are male... or 'present as male'... anyway, today, whenever we think of angels, we usually think of a female. " Excellent point! But not just female, I think. I think I am remembering that Cupid is an immature male, and there may be others. We get our word, "cherubic" from these images. But in Scripture, they are always presented as adult males. Perhaps the difference here is strength. The Enemy does not want angels to be seen as capable warriors. Rev 12:7-9 might be why he doesn't like that image. BTW, when you dig into the singing angels matter, and see that first song and last song, you then need to go to Rev 4 and 5, and see where there is singing, and who sings, and who speaks, and about what. Some careful attention to detail is needed here. It's easy to gloss over the distinctions, but they are there. Also pay attention to the overarching theme of each chapter. God's work in creation and then in redemption is presented, and the difference is important. I think you'll find it a blessing. It messes with a lot of tradition, especially Christmas carols. This causes many to refuse it, even with anger, but it's really a precious truth for us.
So, then, when we get to verse 20, what? If two or three "who" are gathered? Gathered for what purpose?
Right, that is what the video is about.
Hello. Jesus put himself under the OT law only until He started His ministry. When He "took His place", in the way prepared by John, He was no longer under the Old Testament law: "The law and the prophets were until John" (Luke 16.16). "This is he of whom I said, After me cometh a man which is preferred before me: for he was before me." (John 1.30). It's clear that in Matthew 5 Jesus preaches a more advanced law than the Old Testament one, different to this one. He didnt forbid people to swear in Gods name (as the OT law thaught to do) after he was dead and ressurrected, He did it in Matthew 5 - right there, he changed the law an thaught them in that moment. He worked on the shabbath because He wasn't under OT law. His disciples worked on shabbath because they were not under the OT law. He didnt stone the adulterous woman, as the OT law said He should do, because He was not under that law. He didnt obbey that law and still didnt sin because wasnt under that law. He is the lawmaker from the tribe of Judah, as profecized by Jacob, and thats what He did, stablished a New Law. Yes, the new covenant came with His blood, but the new law came before, when he took proeminence after John. We arent under the OT law, but we are under the new testament law, because the law changed with Jesus: "for the priesthood being changed, there is made of necessity a change also of the law." (Hebrews 7.12). Paul clearly said he wasnt under the Old Testament law, but was under the New Testament law "And unto the Jews I became as a Jew, that I might gain the Jews; to them that are under the law, as under the law, that I might gain them that are under the law; To them that are without law, as without law, (being not without law to God, but under the law to Christ,) that I might gain them that are without law." (1 Corinthias 9.20,21). So, in all passages in which Paul says we are not under the law, he cleraly is speaking about not being under the Old Testament law, just like Christ (yes, He did obbey he OT law until He was 30, not after). Even the first theolgians differentiate the New Testamet law from the OT law. That's why Jesus said: "depart from me, you workers of lawlessness.’" (Matthew 7.23).
John 16:16 says: "16 “The Law and the Prophets were proclaimed until John. Since that time, the good news of the kingdom of God is being preached, and everyone is forcing their way into it." But the next verse says: "17 It is easier for heaven and earth to disappear than for the least stroke of a pen to drop out of the Law." Christ was the embodiment of the Law and followed it - I would suggest that anything he did strictly outside the letter of the Law was because it was the spirit of the Law - as in "not all of Israel is Israel", meaning the real Israel is that who follows the Law and has Faith in God. Matthew 5 (nearly all of Matt.) is Law and fulfillment of Prophecy. Jesus has to be under the Law and under Prophecy - right to the end!
Thanks.. no offense I have no clue who you are or who knows you how long you have walked in what you preach and teach. I just deleted what I posted. I went and watched some of your other videos and.. its best to say nothing. Your not the first to come along and "see the light" of what Gods word is really saying. I want to share a story here because .. I'm here haha. When I was 15 (63 now) I started going to this bible study ran by two grand parents who always reminded us if they say anything that is not in Gods word do not believe us. She prayed 4 hours a day. I remember one night they asked if I wanted the holy Spirit. Now.. I want anything that the Father gives I said yes yet no clue to what. So I sit in this chair and he reads only verses about the holy Spirit never adds one word to them other then just what was written. Then asks me again I say yes he prays the shortest prayer then just stops says "that's it you got it". What? Nothing happened.. no one said one word. I got up the moment I go to sit down BAM tongues came out. I was saved the day before but was it like day and night? PRAISE GOD GLORY GLORY GLORY to JESUS! Yes.. you shall receive power after? I watched a great man of God say that does not happen any more. Hello hear I am. At 18 or so in the back of our Church a preacher came for the week. I asked a friend next to me who is that woman up front crying so loud.. and like screaming. He said "see all the people here (about 400) about 1/2 came with she was blind". Not any more. I was born in Washington St. And at about 18 I LOVE LOVE music. I asked this band that came one day if he knew a good music School and he said yeah in Oklahoma. I looked into it and.. I am going. I knew no one there.. no place to stay. I got this thought to go say good by to a old friend and what are the odds she just happen to know 2 people going to that same state. OOh just wait.. so as we were just getting in to Oklahoma the driver said she knew someone that went to ORU that I might be able to stay with for aa few days but no clue where that school was. At the same exact time this car driving behind us the guy kept pointing up. We pull over to this INFO stand and he pulls up gets out comes over and says... "didn't you see me pointing up?" We answered "yes" He said and I quote "the lord told me you do not know how to get to Oral Roberts UNIV and I am to show you the way" HAHA YES praise GOD man that happen to ME and still blows me away. Shall I go on? I can so many more.. We moved to Calf and I would walk to work Pizza Hut. Then on night I had this dream I was riding this motorcycle and you could see the name "Yamaha 185". One day walking to work I see behind this garage a motorcycles front tire that is all you could see it was under all this stuff. So I go to the house ask if they wanted to sell it.. he said just take it. I take it to this gas station to get fix.. just to find out it was a Yamaha 185. Skip allot.. I was married now living in Glendale Calf I went to Hollo wood to see this preacher. I left a tad early and it was dark I only light was at the corner and my little Truck was about 2 blocks away. I was very happy.. I was walking and just as I was crossing the street the lord said "RUN". I thought.. run? Why I'm not scared. To that He said "When GOD tells you to do something you do not question it you just do it" To that I smiled and said YES SIR. I start to run and I am now on the next block I pass this 5 story appartment building on my left that had double doors in front wide open but pitch black inside. JUUUUUST as I run past two people run out jump into this baby blue old car and are driving backwards after me. Ok.. said but true.. man I was soooo scared now. I am running across the street and they are right behind me..going backwards. I see my truck on the other side and what always gets me is.. why why are there two big men just standing in the dark not talking just standing there. On was on the grass by my front bumper the other on the side walk by the passenger door just standing not talking in the dark. I run over the car sees them and takes off going forward. I never add anything to what He has done in my life. We were going to Church one night and just before we went.. I said lord I know you called but can you please tell me again. You said out of the mouth of two or three. We go to Church for the 1st time in like 7 years go going there and it never happened again 3 people came up saying things like "you know you should be in the minister, you should be a preacher" so forth so on. Yeah.. no one ever I mean ever said that hinted that or after just that one night 3 come up said that "I know you called me" ok the last one. Backing up back in Washington our Church would go to other Churches and sing and pray for people. After Sunday morning service I go for a walk a town I had never bene in.. for a walk alone. I say to the lord "I know you called me but I don't know to what". That night we sing and then go out to pray for the people. I notice Roy is not praying for that man but that man is praying over him. I just knew it was the lord and had a thought if I go over there maybe he will pray for me. I go over. and he does. He takes his hands off Roy puts them on me says "my son I have called you but you do not know to what but I will open all the doors. You have great faith,,," so forth so on. Even though I knew it was of the lord I still went to my pastor and asked if that mans word can be trusted and it was yes. This was before going to Oklahoma where after finding someone to stay with.. went looking for a job.. got a fulltime job that same day right down the street from the school See I listen to others.. but well I just read HIs word and just believe. So though everything I said here is 100% true and anyone can ask the lord who is with in them yet.. I will say also don't believe me. Don't believe a word I say.. you seek you pray you find this truth for your self. I can keep going.. this has never stopped.. He is alive and.. seems some are stuck or will not Change for they know what they personally believe is the real truth. Me? Oh I just am a follower of Christ and Father if there is ANYTHING I have said or done that is not true not of you I repent and change me first. I so want to keep going. He is soooo good. Just read what He said.. and believe..not what I say.. but what HE says> KNOW what He does for one HE will do for all. I once read as I was waiting for my kids .. always picked them up dropped them off. had to be mom and dad.. I was reading the man that found something and sold all.. I said lord.. I have read this so many times.. what does this mean.. out of now where He said "I am the treasure". So ask Him about some verse if you don't understand. Asking man is wise but know this.. you only get what they personally believe. Not here to debate anything. I have found something today that seems to not mean much that is "Yeshua/Jesus Christ came in the flesh died on the cross for the world sin was buried rose the 3rd day and HE is the only way to the Father. I say this so you know who's talking. The enemy can not will not say that. If you don't agree with something I said its ok.. do you know that HE came died for you loves you? THAT's what matters. But man I take everything He wants to freely give to ALL of His kids.
Thanks for you (extensive!) comment! God bless!

Not sure what you are saying here - I agree that Prophecy has been (and will be) fulfilled!
Many think the 1st day of Sukkot was birth and then circumcised on the 8th day of Shemini Atzeret (both Sabbaths). How would the 15 days later of the Tabernacles feast figure with Mary's cleanliness to visit Jerusalem?
Good question - Joseph takes Jesus? I'd have to go back and look at it. Interesting.
Glad you commented on my post yesterday, enjoyed the video. In Corinthians Paul feels like a father betrothing his daughter, the assembly of Corinth, to Christ. The verse is about Paul and one assembly, betrothing them to Christ that they may become one body. The Assembly is always the body in scripture and Christ is the head. Gates were the tribes, foundation stones were the apostles.
Thanks for watching. I should clean the video up a bit, but these are the things I enjoy engaging with. My channel is focused on rightly dividing the Word of Truth, i.e. understanding the Bible in context. It is fun to do, but there is no lack of challenge if people feel I've gotten it wrong! ;-)
This verse is for the administrative functions of the Church especially in making policies and regulations. It is so because the prior verse says this: 18 “Truly I tell you, whatever you bind on earth will be[e] bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven. 19 “Again, truly I tell you that if two of you on earth agree about anything they ask for, it will be done for them by my Father in heaven. That's why Jesus added: 20 For where two or three gather in my name, there am I with them.”
Perhaps I should have included that in the context. Thank you
Where in the Bible does it say that we are not under the Law? My Bible in MATHEW(of all places, since you were quoting from Mathew) says, "Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil. For truly, I say to you, until heaven and earth pass away, not an iota, not a dot, will pass from the Law until all is accomplished". Paul said He knew not sin but for the Law. The Pilgrims and early colonial pastors taught no such thing and God blessed them above all others in all of history. Today false "Judeo-Christianity" teaches the Law has been done away with and we have more divorce, more crime, more drug and alcohol use, more broken families and society teaches that good is evil and evil is good. It is because an enemy has come into our churches and has brought false doctrines such as the Law has been done away with, that we will be raptured, that we either go to a place called heaven or a literal burning hell when we die, that the people who say they are of Judah are real Israelites(even though they hate Christ who said that His sheep(ISRAELITES) hear His voice and follow Him and that the Edomite convert Pharisees(from Hyrcanus' conversion of Edomites in 120ishbc) didn't believe Christ because they were NOT HIS SHEEP(not Israelites) and they confirmed this by saying that though they were of Abraham's seed(as their father was Esau and was a descendant of Abraham) they admitted that they had never been in bondage to any man, yet the Judahites had been in bondage in Egypt AND in Babylon before that time. And our pastors teach that the real Israel people of God Almighty who fulfill EVERY SINGLE MARK AND PROPHECY of Israel-the white Christian race- are just "white gentiles" with no special place in this world other than to support the enemies of Christ who have rebuilt old Palestine in these end times just as prophesied of the small race of Edomites to do! God's real Israel people are being destroyed for a lack of BIBLICAL KNOWLEDGE! You said Christ didn't have blonde hair and blue eyes but you obviously don't know your Bible in which the white Christian race fulfills EVERY SINGLE PROPHECY AND MARK of Israel and there are OVER 200 of them!!! Here's visual proof that the ancient Israelites were super white with mainly red and blonde hair, as you claim they didn't. This is a Google image search link for ancient mosaics in Israel" which proof 100% that whites are indeed the true Israel people of God who have been BLINDED to their true identity in these end times by God Almighty as part of His punishments for the white race turning away from their God as prophesied: Here are the mosaics proving whites are Israel!!!: www.google.com/search?q=ancient+mosaics+in+israel&sca_esv=1aa700937aa37790&udm=2&biw=1440&bih=773&sxsrf=ADLYWIKp1aQpoc37Zq9_XXEjhp8yQ1EDIw%3A1730768621491&ei=7W4pZ4PMHYibptQPiczVyQE&ved=0ahUKEwjD9vzG_8OJAxWIjYkEHQlmNRkQ4dUDCBE&oq=ancient+mosaics+in+israel&gs_lp=EgNpbWciGWFuY2llbnQgbW9zYWljcyBpbiBpc3JhZWwyBBAjGCdIxAlQAFgAcAF4AJABAJgBAKABAKoBALgBDMgBAJgCAaACBZgDAIgGAZIHATGgBwA&sclient=img Btw, I am descended from several famous rabbis and many other Jewish people and I tell you the truth that white Christians are the true physical descendants of Jacob Israel!!!!! Wake up oh CAPTIVE Daughter of Zion!!! Your white western nations have been conquered by an alien race who hates the white Israel people, just as prophesied! And now they are behind flooding your white western nations with non whites to try and destroy the real white Israel race from existance and to plunder you into destruction!!! Turn back to your God America Zion!!!!!
Speaking of wrong doctrine, bet you worship on Sunday and celebrate easter and christmas, too. Take the log out yer own eye..
Yes, Christians worship on Sunday as tradition, but Paul instructs us to not hold one day holier or above another. I worship every day - what do you do?
Maybe you can tackle the Lord’s day, Good Friday, Easter, and Christmas in relation to scripture since you brought up the wise men not being at the birth.
Here is a Christmas one!: ua-cam.com/video/AzH_mHZ-RgY/v-deo.html and here's one on The Bride of Christ, which is a bit sloppy, if I'm honest, but has a lot of good, researched information: ua-cam.com/video/0CnfqT_2mcQ/v-deo.html Easter is a good one, too - and Good Friday. I will put those on my - very long - 'to do' list!
Instead of questioning a plain reading/interpretation of the text, perhaps consider texts like Genesis 6:3 for clues. According to Hebrew 11, Abraham was waiting for a city built by God. Was Abraham right to expect a literal city, or was this figurative? My point is that we should always believe God and take the bible literally unless there is a reasonable explanation not to do so- that's what makes us "believers". God shortened the average lifespans of humans to limit their potential for doing evil.
Just a moment, I'm providing the plain reading and interpretation of text - my goal is to remove a tradition that is not Biblically based... and Genesis 6:3 is a indication of how long Man has before the Flood, not how long he will live. 'Literal' should not mean, "What pops into my head when I read it", but needs to be seen in a broader context. Thanks for your comment.
Context! Oh man, it makes me cringe every time I hear Jer 29:11 quoted as a catch-all verse for every First World problem we may encounter. Especially when it comes from respectable big name pastors, teachers, and authors.
Yes, I have a sermon on that, too! ua-cam.com/video/shFBqs1CD6I/v-deo.html
WOW! Where do I begin? 1st: Christ is not under the law! He is God, He is the origin of the law, the law giver. As such He cannot and will not violate the law. To say that Christ is under the law smacks or heresy and demoting Christ to the level of sinners. Sounds like something a jehova witness would say. 2nd: this man introduces a logical fallacy that I have never heard, nor is it reasonable to say that this fallacy is commonly held, i.e. 2 or more are reqired for God to be present and our prayers must be given in His presence to be received by Him. We know, because the Bible teaches, that God is omnipresent. 3rd: aligning the "sound" of wording to Olt Testament "sound of wording is silly at best and misleading in his handling. 4th: the context is very simple. As believer priests, the belivers, under grace, are privledged to enter into the holiest, the very presence of God. Israel, under the law, and through fear and disobedience had to have a priest to reperesent them. This priest entered into the Holy of Holies one one day of the entire year. Under grace, Christians fully enjoy this priveledge every Lords Day when the gather together to partake of the emblems and worship Christ. The passage of where 2 or 3 are gathered in His name actually defines the simplest form of a local assembly (church) and it reminds us of this wonderul priestly priveledge that we enjoy under grace. This man is not teaching truth. He is misleading.
Thanks for your comments: 1) Christ, as Messiah, had to obey the Law and did. He had to 'obey' prophecy, and did. 2) You cannot say that the misuse of "where 2 or 3..." is a 'fallacy', because I gave a video example of it being used in a Catholic setting and I have heard it misquoted a number of times... where is the lie here? 3) I don't know what you mean by 'sound of wording' 4) Your comment on context isn't context, but a confused rambling about a different subject that ends up basically where my video does.
@theworkman317 Is Christ impeccable? Was and is it possible for Christ to sin?
@@scotte2815Impeccable? i don't understand. "Was it possible for Christ to sin?" As God, no, not really, but, He has his own will, 'he suffered as we suffer', he was fully man - with all the pain - yet, fully God.
All so refers to business transactions, court room transactions/disputes. A wise practice to keep people honest. Deuteronomy 19:15-21. Churches, businesses, charitable organizations, use this principle. And when they don't, embezzlement occurs. Non Christian organizations use this principle and they don't even know where it comes from! Kinda makes me chuckle sometimes. 😂 Our Lord and Savior knew what He was doing when He gave us the Bible. ❤
Amen.
Amen!
Thank you!
This will be a great discussion in my bible study, but I do not believe you are correct here. The Lord is with each one of us individually, Matthew 28:20. He lives inside us, Galatians 2:20. He never leaves us or forsakes us, Hebrews 13:5. With these known truths revealed to us in the bible, I know that I don't need another to be present to have the Lord hear my prayers. What Matthew 18:20 is saying is also true, especially when you read the previous verse then this verse. My belief is that there is a special presence and anointing of the Holy Spirit that is manifest when we gather with other believers in the name of Jesus. But I am just a common lay person and I am only stating what I am reading in an English translation.
Thanks for your response - great that you will take it to your Bible study, excellent! Keep on digging into the Word! You're assertion: "...belief...special presence and anointing of the HS..." - that sounds reasonable, but I would ask you which scriptures you use to justify it. If you have multiple, that is a good sign, if you they are located in the scripture that is not only 'for' you but 'to' you and about you, then that is a strong argument. (To and About the One Body: Eph, Phil, Col., 1 & 2 Tim, Titus, Phile.)
I've never thought of that verse excluding the omnipresence of God with me when I'm alone. A born again Christian is the temple of the Holy Spirit. The mystery of the triune God. Being everywhere all at one at the same time personally present when and where He chooses. May I politely suggest..are you limiting God in His multi dimensional activity? Trying to join the dots? One on One relationship and also when there is a gathering He is there as well. I don't see the problem.
Thanks for this. I'm not trying to limit God, but God has limits! What I'm attempting to do is get down to what the verse(s) actually mean. Correct interpretation of Scripture, rightly divided, is key to a proper understanding.
@theworkman317 Except you’ve inaccurately exegeted the verses.
jesus is at work , even today , even right now. we co labour with him to reach a lost world. He is the head of the church , his bride. A people and his children unitied. A church is not one person. Of what use are any of the spritual gifts or fruits of the spirit if no other person or people are involved. Yes Jesus did come and be part of you as an individual when you were saved. But you were saved into a familty. The body of Christ. I think the verse has many layers and what you explained in context does make sense. I just think you are selling yourself short not realizing it is also saying more. He is concluding this passage pertaining to disipline with a statement that hold true beyond just disipline. His power is manifest in the unity of his people. When we work together we put ourselves in a position to be used by him.
One thing: try not mixing the One Body with the Bride of Christ (2 Tim. 2:15) and see my video on this: ua-cam.com/video/0CnfqT_2mcQ/v-deo.html
Was reading this the other day and was thinking about exactly this. I realized it’s about sin and purification
Yep. I think so! Thanks for the comment!
I was told the a similar thing years ago…. 2 or 3 witnesses represents the truth….. Jesus is the truth
Thanks for your comment
Thank you!
You're welcome!
No,the whole of the bible is just a collection fanytastic stories. Nobody in their right mind believes this shit.
Billions believe it. That doesn't make it true, but it does suggest that "nobody" might be overstating the case! But, I have a question for you: "If, somehow - we don't know how, but somehow, you knew it was the Truth would you believe it?" if you say, "No", well then, carry on. But if you say "Yes", then there is a conversation to be had, because the Bible is true. If you are interested, I have a number of sermons on my channel exploring this.
@@theworkman317 just because a herds of foolish men and women do believe a bulshit ,that does not make it true.Thank you sir from your invitation .but I don't have a time to waste.
I think it would be good if people still used the statement but also took into account the purpose of accountability that is clearly baked in. I think it works both ways. It's good to acknowledge the presence of the Lord when we come together but for every good and perfect reason that it applies, especially including accountability to members of the body of Christ.
My pastor mentions this verse all the time. It always seems misapplied to me because the Holy Spirit dwells in me always as a born again believer.
Yes, I think that is right. But it has taken on a life in the Church above what it actually means... As many have pointed out to me, "who cares?! it sounds nice." But I'm more focused on getting it "right". ;-)
This was a weak argument for celebrating the false Messiah's holy day, and perpetuating the holy day of Babylonian witchcraft. All of its practices, all of its symbology, everything comes from this satanic false religion. No true believer would want to excuse this, no true believer would want to betray Elohim in such a way.
Well, it is a Biblically-based argument. How would you argue (against) it with Biblical references?
@theworkman317 There are no Biblical references for Christmas. It's not a Bible based argument. Every aspect of Christmas has its origins in pagan traditions.
@@dezertfox3681 I can only imagine you did not watch the video. The video is about calculating the birth of Jesus using the Bible. I did that. He seems to have been born during the Feast of Trumpets, specifically on 29 September. 40 weeks or 280 days (the perfect gestation period) before that is 25 December. So, I'm not justifying 'Christmas' en sich, but showing how we might have adopted that day and that you can celebrate a key Christian event, Jesus' conception, on Christmas day.
Thank you for clearing this up in such an easy way.
You're very welcome!
If you really knew scripture as you profess, then you would know that the scripture originally said when two or more are gathered together.
You may well be right.
@@Joe-b8z4y Does anyone really know scripture but Christ the Word? Has the father revealed everything to you? How about a resource or context on your comment 🤔 Anyone can make claims about anything. This is the most direct translation of the Greek to English from a Greek English Bible. "Where indeed are two or three gather together unto my name there am I in the midst of them"
Man, this is hilarious. I am all for proper interpretation which is important. (Excuse the essay) I also rethink we need to be careful, there is a joke in that when a man goes to seminary , he is going to cemetery. Why? When he comes out, his faith is either strengthened beyond belief or his doctrine chokes the life out of it (dead faith). Some people go on mission trips and the natives of the land tell them not to pray with them, when they ask why the response is “well you dont’t have faith.” There is big difference between believing in God and believing God. I have seen people with incredible faith and God has blessed it. Many would have said the people in question are biblically illiterate. Again, proper interpretation is important, I am just saying be careful not to make it too academic, your faith and walk with God will become as dead as the cemetery. It’s sad to see. I would have laughed at myself for typing this years ago but after what I have seen, I am more lenient when it comes to this kind of stuff. My experience: I saw a group of people once praying fervently in a small room and for the first time in my life, I had the most supernatural encounter with God ever. It was similar to isaiah when he cursed himself (very dramatic). That day changed my view on what I think I know and turned everything on it’s head. There is a supernatural side to the faith that cannot be ignored but that is another topic entirely.
Thanks for taking the time to comment. Here's a book for you: The Silence of God, by Sir Robert Anderson. The English is a bit archaic, but he's a great writer. My latest video on Muslims also addresses what you might find to be 'too academic', but what I would characterized as 'proper interpretation'! ;-) Take a look at it and let me know what you think.
What a great message! While in Timothy, we are called to rightly divide the word of truth. 2TIM 2 :15. Blessings from Colorado Springs, Co!🙏🙏
Thank you Colorado Springs! Welcome to this channel - lots more 'right division' stuff to go through... Enjoy!
I have listened to this teaching twice now. Still any sense. Sounds like we are not supposed to think the scriptures mean what they say. I have tried to thirty second rule and this video still doesn't make sense. I know that we don't need other people in order to pray to God in Jesus' name. I never heard this passage interpreted that way.
Twice?! That is quite an investment in something that doesn't make sense. Thanks for putting forth so much effort. Nevertheless, I agree with your comment: "we don't need other people in order to pray to God in Jesus' name"
