Old Testament scholar Dr. John Whitcomb teaches us about "Christmas in the Pentateuch" here on "Encounter God's Truth," taking us to passages such as the following: Gen. 3:15; 12:3; 22:18; 49:10; Num. 24:17-19; Deut. 18:15-22; Ezek. 21:27; and John 1:9-12. Our teacher will show us that the setting for Christmas goes all the way back to the Garden of Eden, when God first promised a Savior. We trust that this unique lesson will help you think Biblically about the prophetic significance of Christ's birth and ministry now as the Christmas season unfolds. Host Wayne Shepherd then inquires of Dr. Whitcomb as to the fulfillment of these Old Testament prophecies of Christ's coming from John chapter one. As you celebrate our Lord's incarnation this year, remember that God's Word is true from the beginning to the end. Merry Christmas!

5:17 Behold, how happy is the man whom God reproves- Ps. 94:12; Prov. 3:11-12; 23:12, 23; Heb. 12:5-11; Rev. 3:19. How happy in 5:17 is the word translated blessed in Ps. 1:1.  5:18 For He inflicts pain, and gives relief- Deut. 32:39; I Sam. 2:6; Isa.19:22; 30:26; Hos. 6:1.  Job 1:21; 2:10 Each of the speakers understood the sovereignty of God in the affairs of the world.  He wounds, and His hands also heal- The friends never resort to Satan as the answer for human suffering.  5:19 From six troubles He will deliver you- The closest way to parallel a number is to give the next highest number.  Even in seven evil will not touch you- Ps. 91:10. This is a passage like Job 2:10 where the evil refers not to sin but to calamity. 5:20 In famine He will redeem you from death- Ps. 34:23; 49:8,16; 55:19; 69:19; 71:23; 119:134. The word redeem in Psalm 49:7, 7, 15. Ps. 49:15 and Ps. 103:4 speak of God redeeming the life, or soul, of the Psalmist from Sheol, the pit, or the grave. 5:21 You will hidden from the scourge of the tongue- For the tongue as a weapon- Ps. 52:2,4; 64:3. Vicious words can destroy the one they are spoken against, and undo the one who speaks them as well (Prov. 10:8, 14; 13:3; 18:7).Neither will you be afraid of violence when it comes- Ps. 91:5-6. God can protect His servants even in the midst of a severe judgment (II Peter 2:4-9).  5:22 You will laugh at famine and violence- The verb laugh is used in Ps. 2:4; 37:13; 59:8 to speak of God's reaction to the wrongdoer.Neither will you be afraid of the wild beasts- Lev. 26:4-5; Ps. 91:13; Ezek. 34:25; Hos. 2:18-20 5:23 For you will be in league with the stones of the field- Isa. 5:2; II Sam. 3:19-25 stones present difficulties for an otherwise fruitful field or vineyard.   5:24 You will know that your tent is secure- contrast this with 4:21. Compare this with 21:7. The word secure is actually the word peace which is used as a verb in 5:23.For you will visit your abode and fear no loss- Job lost his wealth in 1:13-17. Job will say that it is the children of the wicked that are safe and secure in Job 21:8-10.The word generally translated sin is used at the end of vs. 24. Sin is the idea of missing the mark (Judges 20:16) and the proper idea behind it is experiencing loss. 5:25 You will know also that your descendants will be many- These two lines are in stark contrast to 5:4-5. They are also contrary to Job's experiences as Job lost his children in 1:18-19. And your offspring as the grass of the earth- Isa. 53:10; Job 42:16; Ps. 37:16. This will ultimately be true of Job (42:13-15). 5:26 You will come to the grave in full vigor- Premature death is considered a great disaster (Job 22:16). Are the statements of Job 5:17-27 promising too much? Notice how many things said in Job 5:17-27 sound like Psalm 91 and other PsalmsJob 5:19 God will deliver him from all troubles; Ps. 34:19 Many are afflictions of the righteous, but the LORD delivers him out of them allJob 5:19 evil will not touch you; Ps. 91:10 No evil will befall youJob 5:22, 23 not be afraid of wild beasts, beasts of field at peace; Ps. 91:13 tread upon lion, cobra, young lion, serpentJob 5:24 your tent is secure/ Ps. 91:10 no plague near your tentJob 5:26 long life Ps. 91:16 

Az emléküket is kitörölték, én pedig feladatomnak érzem, hogy megmutassam őket – mondja a kommunista diktatúra idejének embercsempészeiről podcastunkban Élő Anita. Kolléganőnk évek óta kutatja a vasfüggöny elfelejtett vagy fel nem tárt történeteit, és a Karády Katalin Ausztriába szökéséről szóló, részben publikálatlan forrásokon alapuló minapi cikke kiugróan népszerű lett. Történelmi adás a nyugati határ véres múltjáról. Műsorvezető: Ablonczy Bálint, Borbás Barna.

A public library in Caleb and Stephen's area has been providing pornographic content to children. What is happening, why, and what should be done about it?Caleb and Stephen's Letter to the Sioux Center Public Library:To the Sioux Center Public Library, together with its director, board, staff, and all else who pertains:May the Lord convict you to read this letter in its entirety. Do not shrink from its words. Be discomforted, but receive the admonishment in humility. Remove Icebreaker, Identical, and every other wicked, ungodly, and perverse “literature” which you make available for public distribution. To be clear: not only should children be protected from depraved content, but also adults.Repent and do what is right — not from fear of man, not out of a duty to the community, but in the sight of God — that you may be forgiven. “If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us” (1 Jn. 18-10). As will be explained further below, this is no matter of simply saying something to the effect of, “We don't personally like the book, but it's hard to decide what should or shouldn't be stocked,” or to “let the parents decide.”First, a brief note on the First Amendment and libraries. We would like to draw your attention to this week's conclusion of Little v. Llano County, in which the Supreme Court declined to hear an appeal against the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals to uphold the county's removal of 17 books from their public libraries. Specifically, they had ruled that there is no inherent right protected under the First Amendment for someone to receive information via taxpayer-funded books from a public library. This decision now applies to the states of Texas, Louisiana, and Mississippi. If this is the case elsewhere, can—even, ought it not be applied here? Your board has been quoted as stating its “commitment” to “protect access to information.” Should the reception of any and all information or content be protected? There is no true necessity in providing erotica to anyone. Indeed, as your director has said, “Our mission is to inspire lifelong learning, advance knowledge and strengthen our community.” How does pornographic, erotic literature inspire learning and advance knowledge? And — given the backlash you have thus far received — how does this strengthen the community?Second, your opinions on the first amendment, the Iowa constitution, and ALA policies aside: We call upon you to realize you are accountable to a Higher Authority (Acts 5:29; Westminster Larger Catechism QA 99, 128-130; Heidelberg Catechism, QA 104; Belgic Confession 36). You are under a law greater than your own policies. This law, God's law, applies to all peoples, unbelievers and believers alike. All mankind will be judged under the same law. If there are any on the board who do not profess Christ, you must hear the gospel and turn from your sins so that you may be saved. If you would hear this message of salvation while there is yet time, please contact us at pastor.rvurc@gmail.com.However, being aware of the demographics of our county, it is far more likely that this board and the library staff are full of churchgoers. If so, what grief you bring upon Christ's name! “Who hath bewitched you, that ye should not obey the truth?” (Gal. 3:1)What does the Word of God say of your actions?By providing in your catalog any material with perverse content, you promote peoples' minds to dwell upon that which is prohibited by the holy law. You train peoples' hearts to store up that which defiles the temple of our body (1 Cor. 6:18-20).“Fornication and all uncleanness or covetousness, let it not even be named among you, as is fitting for saints, neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor jesting, which are not fitting…For this ye know, that no whoremonger, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, hath any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God (Eph. 5:3-5).” Sexual immorality is not limited to only an outward action, but also when the mind itself is lured to entertain temptation. As Jesus says in Matthew 5:27-28, “You have heard that it was said to those of old, ‘You shall not commit adultery.' But I say to you that whoever looks at a woman to lust for her has already committed adultery with her in his heart.”We are instead positively commanded to give our minds to holy, good things: “whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things” (Phil. 4:8).Perhaps you object. Perhaps you think, “I'm not responsible for what others do. If they want to read these things, that's for them to decide.” You may as well like Cain (Gen. 4:9) ask the Lord, “Am I my brother's keeper?” Yes, you are. “Do not be deceived,” says Paul, for “Evil company corrupts good morals” (1 Cor. 15:33), and “A little leaven leaveneth the whole lump” (Gal. 5:9).Concerning sexual immorality and the 7th commandment, Q. 109 of the Heidelberg Catechism asks, Does God, in this commandment, forbid only such scandalous sins as adultery? Note its answer well: “We are temples of the Holy Spirit, body and soul, and Godwants both to be kept clean and holy. That is why God forbids all unchaste actions, looks, talk, thoughts, or desires, and whatever may incite someone to them” (see also WLC QA 139). It is clear: you shall certainly be held responsible for your part in distributing that which may lead someone to sin, whether they be adult or child; regardless of the government's position on its permissibility. However, know that your guilt is magnified for involving a child. Indeed, by permitting a child to check out such filth, you pose a stumbling block before them that they trip into sin. To you Jesus says, “It is inevitable that stumbling blocks come, but woe to one through whom they come! It would be better for him if a millstone were hung around his neck and he were cast into the sea than that he should cause one of these little ones to sin” (Luke 17:1-2; WLC QA 151).We pray you will heed these warnings with all sobriety, especially if you profess Christ, for “You should no longer walk as the rest of the Gentiles walk, in the vanity of their mind” (Eph. 4:17). “Ye adulterers and adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God” (James 4:4).Consider this rebuke as a mercy from the Lord, shining light to expose devilish works. And now being exposed, understand that “to him who knows to do good and does not do it, to him it is sin” (James 4:17), “for if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins, but a fearful expectation of judgment” (Heb. 10:26-27). Can the stakes be any more clear than that? What ought you do?Well, if you would truly be called public servants:* Serve the parents by informing them if a child is seeking adult content (Prov. 17:25; 29:15)* Serve the child by declining to check out any material that would be destructive to their soul, even if it would cost you your job. (Lev. 19:7; Prov. 27:5; James 5:19-20)* Serve the community by refusing to stock wicked books in the first place (Ps. 101:3); by not squandering tax dollars on smut (Prov. 21:20; Lk. 16:10-13). * Discard from your shelves all depraved materials, pornographic writings, even any work which might “shake the hand against God, in defiance against the Almighty” (Job 15:25; Ezek. 20:7; Acts 19:19). * Refuse to contribute to the deformation and denigration of godliness in this area and in this land (Deut. 28:47-48; Dan. 12:10; Matt. 24:12; 1 Tim. 4:1-2; Jude 18-19).And finally, “Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, ye sinners; and purify your hearts, ye double minded. Be afflicted, and mourn, and weep: let your laughter be turned to mourning, and your joy to heaviness. Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall lift you up” (James 4:7-10).May God have mercy.Rev.

Scripture Reading: Revelation 10:1-11 The context of this chapter is the interlude between the sounding of the sixth trumpet … in chapter 9 … and the sounding of the seventh trumpet … in the middle of chapter 11. As there was an interlude between the breaking and opening of the sixth and the seventh seals … Revelation 7 … so there is an interlude between the sounding of the sixth and seventh trumpets.  These interludes have a literary function, at least, for the readers of this book … as they contemplate what has taken place … and anticipate what is coming in the unfolding of God's furious and glorious designs. A glorious, mighty angel appears in John's vision … roaring like a lion, with repeated thunders resulting from his voice.  In his hand he has a 'little scroll.'  The contents of this little scroll are not explicitly described, but what appears in chapters 10 and 11 give us some idea, as John and the two witnesses of chapter 11, are called on to prophesy to the nations. John is commanded to 'take and eat' the scroll.  It is sweet in his mouth, but bitter in his stomach. God's offer of eternal life is sweet 'good news' to the perishing.  But it becomes bitterness to those who reject God's mercy.  Indeed, the Word of God is sweet to those who hear it with their ears and receive it in their hearts (Ezek 3:10).  Let us strive to increasingly satisfy the longings of our hungry hearts with the bread of life.

5:8-16 The doxology of EliphazThere are similar doxologies in Job 9:4-12 and 12:13-25.5:8 But as for me, I would seek God- (Amos 5:4, 6) The Hebrew text actually says but I seek God.  Is seeking God in this passage to inquire of the LORD as the word sometimes means in Gen. 25:22; Ex. 18:15; I Kings 14:5; 22:8; II Kings 1:3, 6,16; II Kings 22:18; II Chron. 32:31; Ezek. 14:7; 20:1.  5:9 Who does great and unsearchable things- 9:10; Ps. 136:4. God's glory is beyond our ability to search or understand (Job 9:10; 11:7; 36:26; Isa. 40:28). Bildad will use the same word for searched in Job 8:8 in which he will say that former generations have searched out this problem of suffering and come to the same conclusions where he and his friends arrived.  5:10 He gives rain on the earth- Ancient people would have attributed the rain to the blessings of their God or gods. Modern man tends to view rain as a natural phenomenon and just as illustration of how the world works. The Bible does not attribute rain to Baal (the contest between Baal and Yahweh in I Kings 17-18). The Bible does not make rain simply a natural law that God built into the world. The Bible speaks of it as a blessing from God's hand, both in Job 36:27-28; 38:25-26. God sending rain on the just and unjust is a continual illustration of him doing good to those who are His enemies in Matt. 5:45.5:11 So that He sets on high those who are lowly- The word translated lowly, shakal, is translated humble in Prov. 16:19; 29:23. God often dramatically reverses a person's situation (I Sam. 2:7-8; Ps. 113:5-8; 147:6; Luke 1:46-56). God exalts the lowly (Matt. 23:12; Luke 14:11; 18:14). 5:12 He frustrates the plotting of the shrewd- God used the counsel of Hushai to thwart (same word translated frustrates here) the good counsel of Ahithophel (II Sam. 17:14).This word shrewd can be used in a positive sense (Prov. 1:4; 8:5; 12:16, 23; 13:16; 14:8, 15, 18; 15:5; 19:25; 22:3; 27:12) or in a negative one (Gen. 3:1; Job 5:12; 15:5). 5:13 He captures the wise by their own shrewdness- The idea is the wise man falling in his own trap he has set for others- Job 18:7-10; 36:8-10; Ps. 7:15; 35:7-8; 57:6; Prov. 26:27; 28:10; Esther 7:10. This verse is quoted by Paul in I Cor. 3:19 and introduced by the wording “For it is written." Does the fact that I Cor. 3:19 shows us that Eliphaz spoke truth demand that he used these words in a proper way? His words are truth, but he seems to place Job among the shrewd who will be brought down. 5:14 By day they meet with darkness- Job 12:24-25; Deut.28:29; Isa.  59:10. And grope at noon as in the night- In the brightest times of the day they will encounter complete darkness (Amos 8:9). 5:15 But He saves from the sword of the mouth- For the tongue as a weapon- Ps. 52:2,4; 64:3; Isa. 54:17; Jer. 18:18; Ps. 12:3-5; 31:21; James 3:5-6. 5:16 So the helpless has hope- 8:13; 11:18; 14:7; Jer. 31:17; Ezek. 37:11; Prov. 19:8; Ruth 1:12; Lam.3:29 The fact that God does these things is a reason for help for the broken. God will catch the world's expectations by surprise. And unrighteousness must shut its mouth- Ps.107:42.  Is Eliphaz placing Job among those who are lowly who will be lifted up or among those who are shrewd who will be brought down? The fact that he emphasizes more about the shrewd who are brought down (vs. 12-14) suggests to me that this is Eliphaz's emphasis here.

Having nothing, and yet possessing everything SPIRIT FORCE BROADCASTAs God's co-workers we urge you not to receive God's grace in vain. 2 For he says,“In the time of my favor I heard you, and in the day of salvation I helped you.”[a]I tell you, now is the time of God's favor, now is the day of salvation.Paul's Hardships3 We put no stumbling block in anyone's path, so that our ministry will not be discredited. 4 Rather, as servants of God we commend ourselves in every way: in great endurance; in troubles, hardships and distresses; 5 in beatings, imprisonments and riots; in hard work, sleepless nights and hunger; 6 in purity, understanding, patience and kindness; in the Holy Spirit and in sincere love; 7 in truthful speech and in the power of God; with weapons of righteousness in the right hand and in the left; 8 through glory and dishonor, bad report and good report; genuine, yet regarded as impostors; 9 known, yet regarded as unknown; dying, and yet we live on; beaten, and yet not killed; 10 sorrowful, yet always rejoicing; poor, yet making many rich; having nothing, and yet possessing everything.11 We have spoken freely to you, Corinthians, and opened wide our hearts to you. 12 We are not withholding our affection from you, but you are withholding yours from us. 13 As a fair exchange—I speak as to my children—open wide your hearts also.Warning Against Idolatry14 Do not be yoked together with unbelievers. For what do righteousness and wickedness have in common? Or what fellowship can light have with darkness? 15 What harmony is there between Christ and Belial[b]? Or what does a believer have in common with an unbeliever? 16 What agreement is there between the temple of God and idols? For we are the temple of the living God. As God has said:“I will live with them and walk among them,and I will be their God, and they will be my people.”[c]17 Therefore,“Come out from them and be separate,says the Lord.Touch no unclean thing, and I will receive you.”[d]18 And,“I will be a Father to you, and you will be my sons and daughters,says the Lord Almighty.”[e]Footnotes2 Corinthians 6:2 Isaiah 49:82 Corinthians 6:15 Greek Beliar, a variant of Belial2 Corinthians 6:16 Lev. 26:12; Jer. 32:38; Ezek. 37:272 Corinthians 6:17 Isaiah 52:11; Ezek. 20:34,412 Corinthians 6:18 2 Samuel 7:14; 7:8We are in the midst of a major spiritual war before the AntiChrist shows up and then Jesus shows up!

Az elmúlt hónapokban egymásra licitáló, szenzációs jóslatokkal foglalkozunk: egyes vélemények szerint ha leválunk az orosz energiahordozókról, a rezsi kétszeresére, háromszorosára, sőt négyszeresére ugrik. Sokáig mindez csak légvárnak tűnt – nem láttuk, milyen számításokból nőnek ekkorára ezek a számok. Most azonban a Portfolio kezébe került egy modell, amely papíron valóban igazolja az árrobbanást. Csakhogy amikor szétszedjük a gépházat, leegyszerűsítések és feltételezések sora bukkan elő. Mit jelent ez a számláinkra nézve, és hol csúszik el a matek? Erről kérdezzük Kabát Krisztiánt, a Portfolio energetikai elemzőjét. A folytatásban a vállalati API-okat nézzük meg közelebbről. Ezek leegyszerűsítve egy olyan “kapuk”, amin keresztül a cég saját rendszerei közvetlenül tudnak a bankkal “beszélgetni”, így gyorsabb és kevesebb manuális munka lesz a pénzügyekben. De hogy működik mindez a gyakorlatban, és miért éri meg egy banknak egy ilyen fejlesztés? A Checklist vendége Kuhárszki András, az OTP Bank digitális banki területek ügyvezető igazgatója volt.

MAGYAR DIVATBEMUTATÓ AMERIKÁBAN - HRIVNÁK TÜNDE ÉS A HALASI CSIPKE TITKAI  Magyarok Óriási Kalandjai Amerikában - MÓKA Podcast    A mai epizód különleges. A Sarasota-i Magyar Fesztiválon beszélgettem Hrivnák Tündével, a BY ME márka alapítójával, aki több mint 25 éve dolgozik azon, hogy a magyar népművészet valódi mestereinek keze munkája a modern világ kifutóira is eljusson. A divat nála nem trend, hanem életforma. Nem ruha, hanem üzenet. Nem minták, hanem identitás. Ahogy ő mondja, a népművészet egy kimondatlan közös nyelv, ami összeköt országokat és embereket. És ez a beszélgetés pont erről szól.     Tünde gyerekkoráról mesél, Tótkomlóson töltött éveiről, ahol a magyar és szlovák kultúra békében élt egymás mellett, és ahol az anyukája és nagymamája által készített kézi hímzett ruhákból megértette, hogy a szépségnek lelke van. Már 12 évesen tudta, hogy egyszer olyan ruhákat tervez majd, amelyeket a magyar lélek hordoz tovább. És ma pontosan ezt teszi.   Kitértünk arra, milyen hosszú és áldozatos munka egyetlen kalocsai, matyó vagy halasi csipkével díszített ruha elkészítése. Megdöbbentő tény, hogy a halasi csipkét ma mindössze kilenc asszony tudja készíteni, és ők napi másfél centiméternyi csipkét horgolnak hajszálvékony fonallal. Nem gép, nem gyár, hanem valódi türelem és örökség. Tünde ezért is hívja ezt a csipkét a „türelem himnuszának".     Beszélt arról is, milyen kapcsolatot ápol az idős hímzőasszonyokkal. Ezek a történetek egyszerre meghatóak és felemelőek, hiszen ezek az asszonyok sokszor a létbiztonságukat is a hímzésből szerzik meg. A BY ME kollekció minden darabja több alkotó munkáját viseli magán, és mindenki neve, munkája és szorgalma megbecsült helyet kap.   A beszélgetés közben szóba kerültek humoros és megindító sztorik is, például az a hölgy, aki éveken át koppintotta Tünde ruháit, majd végül mégis az „eredetit" kérte, amikor a fia esküvőjére készült. Ahogy Tünde mondja: „néha egy bosszantó dologból születik a legszebb történet".     Megérintő volt hallgatni, milyen mély hite vezeti őt a mindennapokban. Minden nap imádkozik, mielőtt tervez, és minden vendég ruhája előtt külön kér áldást, hogy a ruhadarab valóban a megrendelő személyiségét tükrözze. A kreatív állapotról is beszél: nála ez nem múló sugallat, hanem állandó isteni ajándék, ami minden alkalommal ugyanolyan természetesen érkezik.   Szó esett a fast fashion világáról, a nőiességről, arról, mitől lesz valaki igazán elegáns, és arról is, hogy Tünde hogyan látja a modernizáció és hagyomány közti kényes egyensúlyt. A válaszai mindig ugyanoda térnek vissza: tisztelet, alázat, hit, és az eredetiség megőrzése.   A beszélgetés végén villámkérdések következtek, ahol kiderül többek közt, hogy Tünde inkább szoknyát tervez, hogy Kalocsa fontosabb neki, mint Párizs, és hogy ha egyetlen motívumot mutathatna meg a világnak, az a rózsa és a tulipán kettőse lenne, a nő és férfi szimbóluma.   Aki szereti a magyar kultúrát, a kézi hímzést, a divatot, a diaszpóra életét, vagy egyszerűen csak szeret elmélyülni egy olyan beszélgetésben, ami a léleknek is szól, annak ez az epizód nagyon fog tetszeni.   Köszönjük, hogy velünk tartasz a MÓKA Podcast újabb floridai kalandján. És köszönjük Hrivnák Tündének, hogy elhozta Sarasotába mindazt, amit a magyar kultúra kincseként őrizünk.     https://www.facebook.com/bymedivatszalon https://www.instagram.com/tundehrivnak/ byme.hu  

Egy olasz lap, állítólagos moszkvai levéltári iratok alapján 1993-ban ügynökmúlttal vádolta Nagy Imrét, az 1956-os forradalom miniszterelnökét. A Szabad Európa Rádió akkori műsorában Kende Péter politológus és Kun Miklós történész kutatta, mi állhat a vádak megjelenésének háttérben.

Join us LIVE for a no-holds-barred Q&A on one of the most controversial end-time questions: Is the post-tribulation rapture a heresy? We'll cover: The rapture timeline: Rapture → Judgement Seat of Christ → 2nd Coming → Sheep & Goats → White Throne … and more. What does Scripture really say (e.g., 2 Tim. 4:8, Is. 65, Ezek. 47, Zech. 14). The major theological issues: multiple ways of salvation? Eternal insecurity? Dominionism?

How did animals spread around the world post-Flood? How could kangaroos possibly have gotten to Australia? What did carnivores eat if there were so few animals on the earth?In today's episode, Pastor Derek and Pastor Jackie answer a listener question around how animals spread around the earth after the Flood. We look at some natural theories that align with Scripture as well as some supernatural ones as well. We can't know exactly what happened, but we can look at some of the cool events God has brought about through His Word and in scientific evidence today to make some guesses about how all of this may have unfolded! The 17:17 podcast is a ministry of Roseville Baptist Church (MN) that seeks to tackle cultural issues and societal questions from a biblical worldview so that listeners discover what the Bible has to say about the key issues they face on a daily basis. The 17:17 podcast seeks to teach the truth of God's Word in a way that is glorifying to God and easy to understand with the hope of furthering God's kingdom in Spirit and in Truth. Scriptures: Gen. 1:29-31; Gen. 9:2-4; Gen. 6:21; Isa. 11:6-10; Isa. 65:25; Gen. 7:21-23; Gen. 11:8-9; Ezek. 3:11-15; Acts 8:39-40; 1 Kings 18:10-12; 2 Kings 2:15-16.If you'd like access to our show notes, please visit www.rosevillebaptist.com/1717podcast to see them in Google Drive!Please listen, subscribe, rate, and review the podcast so that we can reach to larger audiences and share the truth of God's Word with them!Write in your own questions to be answered on the show at 1717pod@gmail.com.  God bless!

Scripture Reading: Revelation 7:1-8 In Revelation 7, we have an interlude between the sixth and seventh seals.  The chapter has in mind two groups of Christians … 144,000 servants of God who are given His seal, and a "great multitude that no one could number, from every nation, from all tribes and peoples and languages." A literal and future interpretation of the 144,000 servants sees this as Jewish Christians, who are raised up, and protected from the earthly calamities, in order to proclaim the gospel during the great tribulation.  They are chosen from the twelve tribes of Israel and are the "firstfruits for God" (Rev 14:4), indicating that there will be many Jewish people who will turn to Christ during this time.  This is God's 'remnant' of the people of Israel, who will be saved during the final season of human history (cf. Rom 9:27,28; 11:25-27). The seal here seems to be a seal of protection from the calamites that befall the human race (cf. Ezek 9:1-8).  This group is also mentioned in Revelation 14:1-5 as a redeemed group, who are sexually and spiritually pure … who "follow the Lamb wherever he goes … and in their mouth no lie was found."  The 144,000 seem to be a group of Jewish evangelists who are raised up to proclaim the gospel in all the world.  This is yet a display of God's mercy to a rebellious world.  Even in His horrible judgments during this season, He offers eternal life through the global proclamation of the gospel of Christ.  The 'seal' of God is mentioned in Ephesians 1:13,14 and 4:30.  The Holy Spirit is God's seal displaying His ownership and protection of His own.  Let us rest in this comforting reality.

Send us a textFrom Genesis to Revelation, Scripture traces a living current of the Spirit—hovering over the waters (Gen 1:2), breathing life into dry bones (Ezek 37), resting on Jesus and promised to his friends (John 14–16), poured out at Pentecost (Acts 2), and forming Christlike people who bear fruit (Gal 5) and serve with Spirit-given gifts (1 Cor 12–14). In this episode we follow that flow to answer a foundational question: Who is the Holy Spirit?Rather than an impersonal force, the Spirit is the personal presence of God—our Advocate, Comforter, and Guide—leading ordinary apprentices of Jesus into a with-God life. Drawing on the wisdom of the church and the everyday rhythms of discipleship, we explore how the Spirit shapes our identity, empowers our witness, and cultivates love in community. By the end, you'll have a biblical map—and practical next steps—for recognizing and responding to the Spirit's work in and through you.Support the show If you have any questions about the subjects covered in today's episode you can find us on Facebook at the links below or you can shoot me an email at joe@buddywalkwithjesus.com One Stop Shop for all the links Linktr.ee/happydeamedia

The common view is that the saved go to heaven at death to be with Jesus and their loved ones. Although it's not clear what we'll do there, we know that we will enjoy eternal bliss. Problem 1: Going to heaven contradicts scriptures that speak of the righteous living on earth, including the land promise God made to Abraham and his descendants (Gen 12:7; 13:14-15; 15:18-21; 17:7-8; 22:17-18; 24:7; 26:4; 28:13; 35:12; Ex 3:17; 6:8; Lev 25:38; Deut 1:8; Josh 21:43; Ps 105:11; Jer 7:7; 11:5; 32:22; Ezek 20:6, 42; Acts 7:3-5; Rom 4:13; Gal 3:29; Eph 2:12-13, 19) as well as many other texts (Ps 2:7-8; 37:9-11, 21-22, 27-29, 34; Pr 2:21; Is 11:6-9; 60:20-21; Ezek 36:26-28; Dan 2:44; 7:27; Zech 14:9; Mat 5:5; 6:10; Luke 13:28-29; Rev 2:26-27; 5:9-10; 11:15; 21:2-4). Problem 2: Going to heaven undermines God's original intention for creation. God made the kind of world (Gen 1:31) and people (Gen 2:7) he wanted in the beginning. His plan is to fix what went wrong, not give up on it (Rom 8:19-23; Is 45:18). Problem 3: Going to heaven devalues resurrection. Assuming the dead are living in heaven, what's the point of the resurrection of the dead? Why would people want their bodies back after living in disembodied bliss in heaven for centuries? The Bible teaches that when people die, they are “asleep” until Christ returns to “awaken” them (Dan 12:2; John 5:28-29; 6:39-40; 1 Cor 15:21-23). Life will be much like it is now, but with the elimination of everything wrong with the world— including violence, sickness, and death. It will be paradise.The post Who Told You That?
