Ephesians 5:15-19 15 Look carefully then how you walk, not as unwise but as wise, 16 making the best use of the time, because the days are evil. 17 Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is. 18 And do not get drunk with wine, for that is debauchery, but be filled with the Spirit, 19 addressing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody to the Lord with your heart, Titus 2: 2-3:  Older men are to be sober-minded, dignified, self-controlled, sound in faith, in love, and in steadfastness. 3 Older women likewise are to be reverent in behavior, not slanderers or slaves to much wine.

Show Notes: Topic: God's Righteousness and Atonement   Divine righteousness refers first and foremost to the perfection and uprightness of the divine nature. For God to be righteous principally means that God measures up to Himself and is always all that He ought to be as God. While righteousness usually implies conformity to a standard, God simply is the righteousness or justice by which He is righteous and just. This is not so much conformity as it is identity. We might even say that in willing His own being as His highest good, God gives Himself His due. This is the original and uncreated justice of divine self-love. Righteousness is not a state of being God acquires through long practice or exercise. Rather, righteousness denotes the essence of God. Psalm 119: 137-144 Hebrews 10:19-39 Deuteronomy 32:3-4   Talk about righteousness vs Justice and their intersection (both with God and with each other)   Break down Agustine's comments (we will take this segment by segment and discuss, focus on Justice and atonement, and hope in our salvation):   The passion of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ is the hope of glory and a lesson in patience.   What may not the hearts of believers promise themselves as the gift of God's grace, when for their sake God's only Son, co-eternal with the Father, was not content only to be born as man from human stock but even died at the hands of the men he had created?   It is a great thing that we are promised by the Lord, but far greater is what has already been done for us, and which we now commemorate. Where were the sinners, what were they, when Christ died for them?   When Christ has already given us the gift of his death, who is to doubt that he will give the saints the gift of his own life? Why does our human frailty hesitate to believe that mankind will one day live with God?   Who is Christ if not the Word of God: in the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God?   This Word of God was made flesh and dwelt among us. He had no power of himself to die for us: he had to take from us our mortal flesh. This was the way in which, though immortal, he was able to die; the way in which he chose to give life to mortal men: he would first share with us, and then enable us to share with him. Of ourselves we had no power to live, nor did he of himself have the power to die.   In other words, he performed the most wonderful exchange with us. Through us, he died; through him, we shall live.   The death of the Lord our God should not be a cause of shame for us; rather, it should be our greatest hope, our greatest glory. In taking upon himself the death that he found in us, he has most faithfully promised to give us life in him, such as we cannot have of ourselves.   He loved us so much that, sinless himself, he suffered for us sinners the punishment we deserved for our sins. How then can he fail to give us the reward we deserve for our righteousness, for he is the source of righteousness? How can he, whose promises are true, fail to reward the saints when he bore the punishment of sinners, though without sin himself?   Brethren, let us then fearlessly acknowledge, and even openly proclaim, that Christ was crucified for us; let us confess it, not in fear but in joy, not in shame but in glory.   The apostle Paul saw Christ, and extolled his claim to glory. He had many great and inspired things to say about Christ, but he did not say that he boasted in Christ's wonderful works: in creating the world, since he was God with the Father, or in ruling the world, though he was also a man like us. Rather, he said: Let me not boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Whisky Review: Old Grandad 114 Topic: “The Cure of Evil Speaking” Support the show by - Following us on your favorite Podcast Platform Subscribe on YouTube: Manhood, Neat Podcast  Follow on Instagram and X @Manhoodneat Email us: manhood.neat@gmail.com Show Notes: What is Evil Speak? Wesley says, “saying anything bad about someone when they are not present—even if it is true” Gossip, slander, criticism, and spreading rumors.  Intent matters: If the goal is to damage someone's reputation, it's sinful. Why is Evil Speaking Wrong? It harms relationships–divides friends, families, and churches. It misrepresents Christ It violates biblical commands–”Let no corrupting talk come out of your mouths, but only such as is good for building up as fits the occasion, that it may give grace to those who hear.” Eph. 4:29. It reveals a heart issue–pride, jealousy, or bitterness– “Out of abundance of the heart the mouth speaks.” Matthew 12:34 The Cure: Wesley's 3 Step Plan–Matthew 18:15-18 Go to Them Alone: (Gal. 6:1) Confront the person privately with love–not to win, but to heal.  Take One or Two Others: (Col. 4:6) If they won't listen, bring a couple of trusted friends–not a mob–to sort it out fairly.  Tell it to the church: Last Resort: involve the community. If they still resist, step back—and set boundaries.  Why it Matters & What Does This Look Like Today: Wesley was trying to stop the cycle. Refuse to hear gossip, and it dies. When it's okay. Speak evil only to prevent harm but sparingly, like medicine.  Unity and Witness: Ties to Jesus' prayer in John 17. Christians united in love and showed the world.  The Workplace Changing the topic Online To correct or not correct? Family Change the topic? Change the scene

Behold, you were angry, and we sinned;     in our sins we have been a long time, and shall we be saved?[b]   Psalm 80:17-19 But let your hand be upon the one at your right hand, the one whom you made strong for yourself.

Whiskey Review: The Macallan 12 Year Double Cask Topic of Discussion: Christian discipline of Service Verses Referenced: Before the Passover celebration, Jesus knew that his hour had come to leave this world and return to his Father. He had loved his disciples during his ministry on earth, and now he loved them to the very end. It was time for supper, and the devil had already prompted Judas, son of Simon Iscariot, to betray Jesus.Jesus knew that the Father had given him authority over everything and that he had come from God and would return to God. So he got up from the table, took off his robe, wrapped a towel around his waist, and poured water into a basin. Then he began to wash the disciples' feet, drying them with the towel he had around him.  When Jesus came to Simon Peter, Peter said to him, “Lord, are you going to wash my feet?” Jesus replied, “You don't understand now what I am doing, but someday you will.”John 13:1–7 (NLT) “For even the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve other and to give his life as a ransom for many” Mark 10:45 “For you have been called to live in freedom, my brothers and sisters. But don't use your freedom to satisfy your sinful nature. Instead, use your freedom to serve one another in love. For the whole law can be summed up in this one command: Love your neighbor as yourself. Galatians 5:13 So now I am giving you a new commandment: Love each other. Just as I have loved you, you should love each other. Your love for one another will prove to the world that you are my disciples. John 13: 34-35 God has given each of you a gift from his great variety of spiritual gifts. Use them well to serve one another. Do you have the gift of speaking? Then speak as though God himself were speaking through you. Do you have the gift of helping others? Do it with all the strength and energy that God supplies. Then everything you do will bring glory to God through Jesus Christ. All glory and power to him forever and ever! Amen. 1 Peter 4:10-11 Thanks for listening. Subscribe and review.
