What kind of leaders does our world need today? In this episode, Dr. John Neufeld explores the wisdom of the men of Issachar—leaders who "understood the times and knew what Israel should do." With insight into Luke 17 and Jesus' encounter with the ten lepers, Dr. John challenges us to be people of discernment, gratitude, and faith—aware of our times and aligned with God's purposes.The King Arrives: Throughout North American history, there have been two main reactions to monarchy: rebellion or apathy. Some believe the Crown should be rejected, while others see it as largely irrelevant. In short, we wrestle with the idea of kingship. But for followers of Christ, acknowledging Jesus as King is not optional—it's foundational. In this series, Dr. John Neufeld explores Luke 17–20, showing that the Kingship of Jesus is not only central to the Christian faith, but vital for the world.

Jordon GilmoreThis is how we stay in the narrow path.“Of Issachar, men who had understanding of the times, to know what Israel ought to do, 200 chiefs, and all their kinsmen under their command.”‭‭1 Chronicles‬ ‭12‬:‭32‬ ‭ESV‬‬We have a fixed period called time. One of the greatest gifts we can have is to understand the time to make the most use of it. “For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven:”‭‭Ecclesiastes‬ ‭3‬:‭1‬ ‭ESV‬‬To understand the times means to understand:1. What has happened before - can you look back and recognize when God moved in your life.  Can you discern what His purpose was in those situations. 2. What is happening now 3. What may happen nextUnderstanding is composed of awareness or recognition. We pray for an advanced skill of discernment. Four areas of understanding the times1. Biblically and spiritually - Rom 3:21-222. Personally - 1 Sam 30:8 do you understand how to shift and realign your personal resources to maximize the output for the season3. Leadership - Joshua 1:1-3 one of the greatest responsibilities we have as leaders is understanding seasons. What and who has God placed under your leadership?4. Culturally - the climate we are acting in as believers - Matt 22:21 - culture is the climate that we carry out God's strategies 

This edition of Crosstalk began with Jim reminding listeners in Florida, and particularly in Wisconsin, about today's election. In Wisconsin the key race is between Republican Brad Schimel and Democrat Susan Crawford. Jim described this election (which has had over 100 million dollars poured into it) as really being about life vs. abortion, male and female vs. gender fluidity, religious liberty vs. religious bondage and the rule of law vs. judicial activism. As Jim explained, even congressional boundaries are at stake as well. Audio from House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries highlights this segment of the program.The remainder of the program addressed some of the violence going on in American society today in order to make you "understanding of the times" (1 Chronicles 12:32). Matthew 24:37 tells us what life was like in the days of Noah and that this environment would repeat itself at the time of the coming of the Son of Man. Is it possible his coming is not far off? You decide as Jim gives you a brief glimpse of the violence through numerous stories like the ones below:Violence in the womb--Since the Supreme Court's abortion decision in 1973, there's been just over 66.6 million babies killed in the U.S. via abortion.An American teenage girl was taken into custody by Paris police after her newborn baby was thrown from the window of a hotel on the outskirts of the city. The baby died of severe injuries.A Kentucky museum says a Planned Parenthood staffer inadvertently provided sexually explicit coloring books to kids as young as 8 years old at an event earlier this month.Lawmakers in Maryland advanced a bill (HB-380—the "Condoms for Kiddies" bill).

Luke 21:25-28 (NKJV): “And there will be signs in the sun, in the moon, and in the stars; and on the earth distress of nations, with perplexity, the sea and the waves roaring; men's hearts failing them from fear and the expectation of those things which are coming on the earth, for the powers of the heavens will be shaken. Then they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. Now when these things begin to happen, look up and lift up your heads, because your redemption draws near.” 2. Genesis 1:14 (NKJV): “Then God said, ‘Let there be lights in the firmament of the heavens to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs and seasons, and for days and years.'” 3. Joel 2:30-31 (NKJV): “And I will show wonders in the heavens and in the earth: blood and fire and pillars of smoke. The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the coming of the great and awesome day of the Lord.” 4. Acts 2:19-20 (NKJV): “I will show wonders in heaven above and signs in the earth beneath: blood and fire and vapor of smoke. The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the coming of the great and awesome day of the Lord.” 5. Revelation 6:12-14 (NKJV): “I looked when He opened the sixth seal, and behold, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became like blood. And the stars of heaven fell to the earth, as a fig tree drops its late figs when it is shaken by a mighty wind. Then the sky receded as a scroll when it is rolled up, and every mountain and island was moved out of its place.” 6. Matthew 24:29-30 (NKJV): “Immediately after the tribulation of those days the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light; the stars will fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken. Then the sign of the Son of Man will appear in heaven.” 7. Isaiah 41:10 (NKJV): “Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, yes, I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.” 8. John 14:27 (NKJV): “Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.” 9. Mark 13:33-35 (NKJV): “Take heed, watch and pray; for you do not know when the time is. It is like a man going to a far country, who left his house and gave authority to his servants, and to each his work, and commanded the doorkeeper to watch.” 10. 2 Peter 3:10-12 (NKJV): “But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night, in which the heavens will pass away with a great noise, and the elements will melt with fervent heat; both the earth and the works that are in it will be burned up. Therefore, since all these things will be dissolved, what manner of persons ought you to be in holy conduct and godliness.”

Welcome to today's episode, where we now delve into the profound insights of Romans 13:11-14. We explore the Apostle Paul's call to "understand the times" and awaken from spiritual slumber, as our salvation is closer now than when we believed. The episode highlights the importance of discerning our present time, drawing parallels between the inability of the Pharisees and Sadducees to recognize the signs of Jesus' first coming and our need to understand the days of our age. The Apostles' message emphasizes the urgency of living wisely and making the most of our time in a world marked by moral decline and relativism. In this we are also encouraged, if you do not have a personal relationship to Jesus as Savior, to embrace the opportunity of salvation.  Reflecting on historical and Biblical contexts in the episode challenges us to consider our role in this present age, urging us to use our time for the glory of God and the advancement of His kingdom.

Understanding the Times Ecclesiastes 3:1-22     “Teach us to number our days and recognize how few they are; help us to spend them as we should.” Psalm 90:12                1.      Understand that time will present us with a variety of experiences. 2.      Understand that God makes everything beautiful, in its time.   “Faith means believing in advance what will only make sense in reverse.” Philip Yancey   3.      Understand that we are to live out our time on earth with an eternal perspective. 4.      Understand that God desires us to enjoy the time we've been given. 5.      Understand that God is sovereign over time and we're accountable for how we us our it.

Daniel 9:24-27 Understanding The Times with Pastor Ron Brav by Upcountry Calvary

This book surveys several important worldviews to show the superiority of Christianity. In this podcast we go over the chapter on ethics and how various worldviews deal with the concept of right and wrong.

Right now what the church needs is people who perceive the spiritual moment we're in and know what to do. Like the men of Issachar, who gave themselves to help make David king, believers in America and around the world need to realize, “This is a critical moment. We need to make Jesus King over more people. We're going to give ourselves to it.” Let's do it today.
