In this episode, we delve into the spiritual gift of discernment, as referenced in 1 Corinthians 12:10, exploring its definition, importance, and practical applications. Discernment, particularly the ability to distinguish between spirits, is crucial for navigating complex spiritual landscapes and ensuring the integrity and purity of the church's mission.Our springboard for today's discussion is: 1 Corinthians 12:10: "To another miraculous powers, to another prophecy, to another distinguishing between spirits." This verse highlights the diversity of spiritual gifts bestowed by the Holy Spirit, including the essential gift of discernment.Discernment is not just a useful skill; it is a divinely empowered gift that enables believers to perceive and judge well which spirits are at work behind different messages, behaviors, or occurrences—whether they are from God, influenced by human emotions, or originate from demonic sources.Exploring the Biblical Meaning of Discernment:* Spiritual Perception: Discernment involves a heightened spiritual sensitivity, allowing believers to see beyond the surface and understand the spiritual realities influencing thoughts, behaviors, and events.* Judgment and Decision-Making: Those gifted with discernment can make wise decisions that align with God's will, recognizing what is holy and what is deceptive.Importance of Recognizing Spiritual Influences:* Protection of the Church: Discernment guards the church against false teachings, deceptive spirits, and subtler forms of spiritual manipulation that could lead believers astray.* Guidance in Personal Decisions: For individual believers, discernment is key in making choices that reflect God's will and in leading a life that is spiritually healthy and balanced.Highlighting the Role of Discernment in Spiritual Warfare:* Identifying Enemy Tactics: Discernment allows believers to identify and counteract the tactics of the enemy, preventing spiritual attacks from causing division or doubt within the community.* Empowering Prayer and Ministry: Effective ministry and targeted prayer strategies often depend on accurate discernment to address the specific needs and spiritual battles being faced.ConclusionThe gift of discernment is invaluable for maintaining the purity of the church's teachings and for guiding believers in their personal and communal spiritual lives. It is a protective and proactive gift that fosters wisdom and spiritual security.A Question of the Day: How can you develop and nurture the gift of discernment in your life to better serve and protect your community?Growth Challenge: Reflect on a recent situation where you needed more clarity about spiritual influences. Commit to seeking God's guidance through prayer and Scripture study to enhance your discernment abilities. Share your insights with a spiritual mentor and discuss ways to apply them in future situations.Let's Pray: Lord, grant us the gift of discernment that we may see clearly and act wisely in all spiritual matters. Help us to use this gift to safeguard Your truth and to navigate our lives according to Your divine will. Equip us to serve Your people with integrity and insight. Amen.As you go about your week, remember that discernment is a shield against deception and a guide towards truth. Seek it earnestly, use it wisely, and watch how it transforms your understanding and decision-making. Let's continue to grow in every good gift from above.

In this episode, we dive into the gift of prophecy, a vital spiritual gift highlighted in 1 Corinthians 14:1. We'll explore the biblical definition of prophecy, its significance within the church, and how it operates through the Holy Spirit. We will also look at biblical examples that illustrate the role and impact of prophetic voices throughout God's plan.Our springboard for today's discussion is: 1 Corinthians 14:1: "Follow the way of love and eagerly desire gifts of the Spirit, especially prophecy." This verse emphasizes the importance of prophecy in the spiritual life of the church, urging believers to seek this gift actively.Prophecy is not just about foretelling future events but also about forthtelling God's message, providing guidance, edification, exhortation, and comfort to the community.Understanding the Biblical Meaning of Prophecy:* Communication from God: Prophecy involves receiving and communicating a message from God to His people, often through a divinely inspired spokesperson.* Purpose Within the Church: The primary role of prophecy within the church is to build up, encourage, and console the body of Christ, as outlined in 1 Corinthians 14:3.How the Gift of Prophecy Operates Through the Holy Spirit:* Through Spiritual Sensitivity: Individuals gifted with prophecy are often characterized by a heightened spiritual sensitivity, which allows them to perceive and articulate the will of God.* Under Authority: Prophetic messages are given under the authority of Christ and are subject to the scrutiny of Scripture and the church leadership to ensure they align with God's word.Biblical Examples of Prophetic Voices:* Old Testament Prophets: Isaiah, Jeremiah, and Elijah, among others, who delivered God's messages to the nations and leaders, often guiding, correcting, and warning God's people.* New Testament Insights: The role of prophets like Agabus, who in Acts 21:10-11 foretold Paul's imprisonment, which prepared the early Christians for the challenges they would face.ConclusionThe gift of prophecy is a powerful means by which God communicates His divine will to His church. It is crucial for guidance, correction, and encouragement, sustaining the church's health and spiritual growth.A Question of the Day: How can we better foster an environment within our church that values and nurtures the gift of prophecy?Growth Challenge: This week, seek to deepen your understanding of prophecy. Study the lives of biblical prophets and reflect on how their messages impacted their societies and the church. Consider how modern-day prophecy might look in your community and pray for the Holy Spirit to increase this gift among your congregation.Let's Pray: Heavenly Father, thank You for the gift of prophecy and the way it enriches our spiritual lives. Help us to embrace and nurture this gift in our church, guiding us closer to Your truth and will. May we use this gift to edify the church and glorify Your name.

In the OT, the word repent translates the Hebrew verb nacham (נָחַם) which commonly means “to comfort…to find consolation, regret…to be sorry, come to regret something…to console oneself.”[1] This speaks of one's mental attitude, and was used of people (Gen 24:67; 27:42) and God (Gen 6:6; Deut 32:36). However, nacham also means to “change one's mind,”[2] and was used of the Lord who changed His mind about some action He was going to take. For example, Moses wrote, “So the LORD changed His mind [nacham] about the harm which He said He would do to His people” (Ex 32:14). In this way, nacham corresponds to the Greek word metanoeō (μετανοέω), which means to “change one's mind.”[3] The word repent also translates the Hebrew verb shub (שׁוּב), which means to “turn; return, go back…revert; turn back.”[4] The word is used of an Israelite who restores a lost oxen or sheep to a fellow countryman (Deut 22:1-2), or returns a cloak to a poor man (Deut 24:12-13). The word is also used of God's people responding positively to His discipline and returning to Him in obedience (Deut 30:2-3, 9-10). Sometimes shub and nacham are used together, such as when God told Jeremiah, “if that nation against which I have spoken turns [shub] from its evil, I will relent [nacham] concerning the calamity I planned to bring on it” (Jer 18:8). Jonah recorded something similar concerning the Ninevites, saying, “When God saw their deeds, that they turned [shub] from their wicked way, then God relented [nacham] concerning the calamity which He had declared He would bring upon them. And He did not do it” (Jonah 3:10). In these passages, repentance is national and refers to a collective change of mind by the leadership and citizenry that leads to a cooperative change in behavior, a turning from evil that spares them God's wrath. The salvation given to the Ninevites (i.e., Assyrians) was national and temporary. The Assyrians eventually returned to their evil practices and destroyed Israel nearly 37 years later in 722 B.C. This shows that the repentance of one generation is merely the repentance of one generation, and that believing and humble parents does not guarantee believing and humble children. Eventually, God would destroy the Assyrians in 612 B.C. Repentance for the Unsaved For the unsaved who are destined for the lake of fire, repentance is necessary concerning salvation if one understands it to mean having a change of mind that salvation is obtained solely in Christ. Unbelievers cannot stop sinning, which means they cannot save themselves, and their good works have no saving merit (Isa 64:6; Gal 2:16; Eph 2:8-9; Tit 3:5). The lost need to understand that salvation is 100% in Christ alone. Peter said, “there is salvation in no one else; for there is no other name under heaven that has been given among men by which we must be saved” (Acts 4:12). And when the Philippian Jailer asked Paul and Silas, “Sirs, what must I do to be saved?” (Acts 16:30), the simple reply was given, “Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved” (Acts 16:31). The gospel is simple. It means believing in the One who died for our sins, was buried, and raised again on the third day, as Scripture teaches (1 Cor 15:3-4). And salvation is by grace alone, through faith alone, in Christ alone (John 3:16), and not by any human effort (Eph 2:8-9; Tit 3:5), for “the one who does not work, but believes in Him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is credited as righteousness” (Rom 4:5). For Christians, turning from a life of sin and producing good works should follow salvation (Eph 2:10; Gal 6:10), but they are never a condition of it. Arnold Fruchtenbaum states, “When the term ‘repentance' is used as a synonym for faith…it is a condition for salvation. For example, one has to change one's mind about who the Messiah is in order to be saved. So if repentance is meant as a synonym for belief, then yes, repentance is necessary for salvation.”[5] Robert B. Thieme Jr., states, “Salvation repentance occurs when the unbeliever hears the Gospel, understands it, and makes a decision to accept Christ's saving work (Luke 13:3, 5; Acts 17:30; 2 Pet 3:9). Believing in the Gospel message and repenting inherently operate together (Acts 20:21; Mark 1:14–15).”[6] According to Charles Ryrie: "Is repentance a condition for receiving eternal life? Yes, if it is repentance or changing one's mind about Jesus Christ. No, if it means to be sorry for sin or even to resolve to turn from sin, for these things will not save. Is repentance of sin a precondition to faith? No, though a sense of sin and the desire to turn from it may be used by the Spirit to direct someone to the Savior and His salvation. Repentance may prepare the way for faith, but it is faith that saves, not repentance (unless repentance is understood as a synonym for faith or changing one's mind about Christ)."[7] When people hear God's Word accurately taught, it challenges them to change their mind about God and themselves. Paul, when speaking to the elders of the church at Ephesus spoke of “testifying to both Jews and Greeks of repentance toward God and faith in our Lord Jesus Christ” (Acts 20:21). Concerning this verse, J. Dwight Pentecost notes, “A change of attitude toward the revealed truth of God that produced a faith toward the Lord Jesus Christ was the substance of Paul's teaching there before the Ephesian elders.”[8] Should Fruit Follow in a New Believer? Should we expect to see a change in one's values and behavior after being born again? Yes. We should expect to see a change in behavior. John the Baptist told his hearers, “Therefore bear fruit in keeping with repentance” (Matt 3:8). And Paul's message to the Gentiles was “that they should repent and turn to God, performing deeds appropriate to repentance” (Acts 26:20). Ryrie notes, “Certainly when one changes his mind about Christ and receives Him as Savior, changes will follow in his life. All believers will bear fruit, so changes will follow.”[9] Zane Hodges states: "Of course, there is every reason to believe that there will be good works in the life of each believer in Christ. The idea that one may believe in Him and live for years totally unaffected by the amazing miracle of regeneration, or by the instruction and/or discipline of God his heavenly Father, is a fantastic notion—even bizarre. I reject it categorically."[10] Such fruit in the life of believers assumes positive volition and takes time. Sometimes the fruit of the new life is invisible to others, as God works in the hearts of His children to lead them into right thinking and values that conform to His character and directives. Sometimes fruit is invisible, being merely a mental activity (Rom 12:1-2), in which believers know certain things to be true based on God's revelation, such as God being the One who created the universe (Gen 1:1), or claiming promises that stabilize the soul in the midst of adversity (Isa 26:3; Phil 4:6-9). Other times fruit is visible, such as when believers act in conformity with God's directives, speaking the truth in love (Eph 4:15), learning God's Word (2 Tim 2:15; 3:16-17), walking by faith (2 Cor 5:7; Heb 10:38), and advancing to spiritual maturity (Heb 6:1). When believers operate in carnality, this will produce sin and make them indistinguishable from unbelievers (Col 3:1-3), as they produce the fruit of the flesh (Gal 5:16-21). If such believers fail to confess their sin (1 John 1:9) and resume their walk with the Lord (Gal 5:16), they will fall into divine discipline (Heb 12:6), suffer loss of reward (1 Cor 3:10-15; 2 John 1:8), and may even die the sin unto death (1 Cor 11:30; 1 John 5:16). Repentance for God's Children God commands His people to walk in His righteous ways, obeying Him and doing His will. A command implies intelligence to understand and volition to obey. It also implies that one has the capacity to refuse the command and turn away from God's will. It is possible for a righteous person to turn to a life of iniquity. Ezekiel warned about this on several occasions, saying, “When the righteous turns [shub] from his righteousness and commits iniquity, then he shall die in it” (Ezek 33:18; cf., Ezek 3:20, 18:24, 26). The Hebrew verb shub (שׁוּב), translated turn, here refers to the believer who “turns from his righteousness and commits iniquity” (Ezek 33:18a). That is, the believer changes his mind about living righteously and decides to pursue sin. The prophet warns that the righteous who turn to a lifestyle of iniquity will face God's punishment, perhaps even to the point of death, saying, “he shall die in it” (Ezek 33:18b). Repentance is also used of Christians who are operating in a state of carnality and walking according to Satan's world system. For example, the Christians living in Ephesus were commanded by the Lord Jesus, “remember from where you have fallen, and repent and do the deeds you did at first” (Rev 2:5). Failure for Christians to repent of their carnality means they are subject to divine discipline. The Lord Jesus told Christians in Laodicea, “Those whom I love, I reprove and discipline; therefore be zealous and repent” (Rev 3:19). In these cases, repentance means prioritizing God and His Word and submitting to His authority and pursuing a life of righteousness as God expects. The believer who does this will be devoted to learning Scripture (2 Tim 2:15; 1 Pet 2:2), walking by faith (2 Cor 5:7; Heb 10:38), being filled with the Spirit (Eph 5:18), walking in the Spirit (Gal 5:16), and will manifest the fruit of the Spirit (Gal 5:22-23), secure rewards for eternity (1 Cor 3:10-15; 2 John 1:8), be a blessing to others (Matt 5:16; Gal 6:10), and glorify the Lord (1 Cor 10:31; 2 Cor 9:13). This is how believers should live. Does Sorrow Accompany Repentance? Is there sorrow that leads to repentance? Yes, there can be true sorrow that leads to repentance. In his second letter to the Corinthians, Paul said, “the sorrow that is according to the will of God produces a repentance without regret, leading to salvation, but the sorrow of the world produces death” (2 Cor 7:10). Though sorrow may lead to repentance, it does not always do so, as “the sorrow of the world produces death” and not salvation (2 Cor 7:10b). That is, one may be sorrowful, and yet never turn to Christ. Judas, when he betrayed Christ, “felt remorse” for his actions (Matt 27:3), and then “went away and hanged himself” (Matt 27:5). Fruchtenbaum notes, “Sorrow may accompany repentance, but the word itself does not mean ‘sorrow.' It simply means ‘to change one's mind' (Acts 8:22; 11:18; 20:21; 26:20; Heb 6:1, 6; 12:17; Rev 9:20).”[11] He further states, “If repentance is used merely as a synonym for believing in the Messiah—the way the Bible uses it—only in that sense is it truly a condition for salvation. But if—as some groups use it—repentance means ‘to feel sorry for one's sins,' then it indeed becomes a false addition to salvation.”[12] Concerning 2 Corinthians 7:10, Lewis Chafer states: "The common practice of reading into this word the thought of sorrow and heart-anguish is responsible for much confusion in the field of Soteriology. There is no reason why sorrow should not accompany repentance or lead on to repentance, but the sorrow, whatever it may be, is not repentance. In 2 Corinthians 7:10, it is said that “godly sorrow worketh repentance,” that is, it leads on to repentance; but the sorrow is not to be mistaken for the change of mind which it may serve to produce."[13] Dwight Pentecost adds: "You will observe from that verse that sorrow and repentance are not the same at all. Sorrow does its work, and when sorrow has done its work the product of sorrow is repentance and the product of the change of mind is salvation. The Apostle, then, has set up a progression: sorrow, repentance, and salvation. But the sorrow is not repentance, and the repentance is not salvation…Such a sorrow is not repentance, and we will miss the important teaching of the Word of God unless we are clear on the Scriptural concept that, in the Word of God, repentance is a change of mind."[14] Repentance (a change of mind) and faith are like two sides of the same coin where one assumes the other. Lewis Chafer states, “It is asserted that repentance, which is a change of mind, enters of necessity into the very act of believing on Christ, since one cannot turn to Christ from other objects of confidence without that change of mind.”[15]Charles Ryrie adds: "What kind of repentance saves? Not a sorrow for sins or even a sorrow that results in a cleaning up of one's life. People who reform have repented; that is, they have changed their minds about their past lives, but that kind of repentance, albeit genuine, does not of itself save them. The only kind of repentance that saves is a change of mind about Jesus Christ. People can weep; people can resolve to turn from their past sins; but those things in themselves cannot save. The only kind of repentance that saves anyone, anywhere, anytime is a change of mind about Jesus Christ."[16] Joseph Dillow notes: "Is repentance necessary for personal salvation? It depends upon what one means by “repentance.” If it means turn from sin and submit to the Lordship of Christ, it is not necessary. But…if repentance means to admit that one is guilty and needs a Savior from sin, of course repentance is necessary. This is clearly taught in the Gospel of John (John 16:8-9) where we are told that the Holy Spirit convicts the world of sin. That means He brings them to a sense that they are wrong, they are guilty, and they need a Savior. That is repentance. No one comes to the Lamb of God who takes away sin (John 1:29), if he is not convinced that he is guilty and needs a Savior to take away his sin."[17] In summary, the term “repent” is derived from the Hebrew word “nacham” and the Greek word “metanoeō,” both meaning “to change one's mind.” The term is employed both of people (Ex 13:17) and God (Ex 32:14; Jonah 3:10). Repentance, in the context of salvation, signifies a shift in mindset that recognizes Christ as the sole means of salvation. This understanding aligns with the gospel message of salvation by grace alone, through faith alone, in Christ alone, and not by works (Rom 4:4-5; Gal 2:16; Eph 2:8-9). Repentance in salvation entails a recognition that God is holy, we are sinful, we cannot save ourselves, and we need a Savior. When one repents, they will believe the gospel message that Christ died for their sins, was buried, and resurrected on the third day (1 Cor 15:3-4), and will trust in Christ alone as their Savior (Acts 4:12; 16:31).

An interview with Dr. B. Brandon Scott Dr. Brandon Scott explains the complicated history of resurrection. It was not an Easter celebration during biblical times, but the hope of God's restoration of things was handed down from Daniel and the Maccabees. Sacrifice was widespread in the ancient world, not because of sins, but as an act intended to realign the world with God. Writing of Jesus's death come from a conviction that his death was not defeat but that God made him alive. Bernard Brandon Scott is the Darbeth Distinguished Professor of New Testament Emeritus, Phillips Theological Seminary, Tulsa. He is a charter member of the Jesus Seminar and co-chaired Westar's Christianity 1 Seminar. Scott is the author and editor of many books, including The Real Paul: Recovering His Radical Challenge, The Trouble with Resurrection, Hear then the Parable, and Re-imagine the World: An Introduction to the Parables.

Now that we understand success, what is our purpose? In part three of this series, Rylee and Christian review biblical success, knowing that we all run the race to win, but are we doing what God called us to do? The key here is knowing that as Christians, we will never feel fulfillment until we have a relationship with Christ. From there, we have to understand that he created us to be in a relationship with him and with others and that after the fall of Adam and Eve, we're here to restore those things that were only perfect for a short amount of time. We do this by surrendering our lives and clinging to him. It all starts with that leap of faith, even when it's hard, and even when the enemy targets us once we step into our calling. Once we show up, so will God, and he will take care of us as we walk in our purpose.

Lent is upon us. This week we'll speak and hear the words, “remember that you are dust, and to dust you shall return” as the sign of the cross is placed on foreheads. The journey of Lent is a time of repentance, fasting, and preparation for the coming of Easter. We've planned a series of podcasts for Lent that will help you approach lent with hope. As you participate in self-examination and reflection this Lent, the podcast will help you explore a different theme each week. We begin this week with the theme of repentance. Biblical Meaning of Repentance In the Old Testament, there are two words used for repentance. They both mean to turn around or return. You can see it often in phrases like “to turn to the Lord with all your heart.” In the New Testament, there is one word. It is the Greek word metanoia, which literally means “to change the mind.” Repentance fundamentally means to change your mind or change your perspective or change the way you are thinking. You've been thinking one way, but now you think the opposite way. That's repentance — the changing of the mind. An example in the New Testament might be Romans 12:2: “Don't be conformed to this world but be transformed by the renewing of your mind.” As you listen, explore several examples from Scripture. You also might “change your mind” about Tim and Sara always being serious. You'll hear examples and reminders that help you embrace the role repentance places in our lives.

What does the number 5 mean in the Bible, and how does it show Satan's plan to counterfeit Christ is our topic in this PART TWO edition of the Bible Code and the number 5. We learned last week that five is defined in the King James Bible for grace. Consider for a moment; Christ was pierced how many times? The answer is 5. In Luke chapter 24, verse 39, Jesus says behold my hands and my feet, speaking of the piercings. Consider another example that contains five—the pentagram. The five points signify the five I will's of Lucifer. But are you aware that he represents himself as a star because the first mention of a star in the Bible is in Numbers 24 verse 17, where we see a capitalized Star coming out of Jacob? Amos chapter 5 verse 26 mentions a star for their god Moloch and Chiun. Christ is identified in Revelation 22:16 as the morning star. ....
What is the Biblical meaning of 5? Does it have a dual purpose like the other number we have studied so far? Five is defined for grace in the King James Bible. It also somehow represents who God is. Why do I say that? Because of all the numbers Lucifer could have used in his proclamation to be like the Most High five was the number of choice, Isaiah 14: 12-14. The number five is associated with the anointing oil, the offerings acceptable upon the Altar of Sacrifice, the women in the genealogy of Jesus Christ, the ten commandments with five laws of man toward God and five toward his fellow man, and finally, the five wise and foolish virgins. But there is much more...
are specific numbers in the King James Bible, chosen by God and used detailed and precise. Each number is defined and utilized methodically to teach and support the Word of God. We serve an orderly God who governs the universe and this world with precision and accuracy. Should we not expect His word to follow the same guidelines? Using computers, we can see how unique the Word of God is. Not only that, but we can see that the King James Bible stands out from all other versions because only in this Bible can such a study be done. I hope you will see in this lesson and all the number lessons I do is the consistency in which God uses numbers. By this consistency, we can see His hand in preserving His Word. Let us begin our study now of the number fourteen.

What is the Biblical meaning of the number 21? This number has the highest hits on the blog www.DNAintheBible.com. A number defined in the King James Bible for Exceeding sinfulness of sin.

One thing I want to remind you, no matter how crazy this world gets, there is one who is still on the throne guiding the world events, and that man is Jesus Christ. All the world events are coming together just like the book of Revelation predicted.
In episode 52, I ask the question, “What if you could walk through walls?” If you could what would it mean? Jesus walked through walls and if pushed me to wonder if Jesus was confirming that we live in a simulated reality. Jesus walking through walls also begs the question as to whether there is a Jesus in each string theory-inspired dimension? If you are intrigued by these questions, you should listen to this episode.
