I always walk away smarter than when I came. I give glory to God that he always ensures that his word is understood. Thank you Dr. Esau for sharing your studies with us.
Currently reading his book now...and he really is a brilliant mind!
this is simply GREAT!!
Good conversation. Glad you tapped into a prevalent issue that is rarely mentioned.
I already know this abt to be fire. This man is brilliant!
This was such an insightful conversation. Thank you. Lisa, call your boy up more often 😊
It's also impossible to define sin without law. Sin is the transgression of the law. So if the moral law was done away with by Jesus (as some people believe) then it would be literally impossible to sin as a Christian today. And since we know that's not true then we know that God does hold us to His moral law even today.
Very good!
As very relevant, but PREsciptive not DEscriptive... Jesus didn't abolish, do away with or in anyway dismiss the law...
“Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them.
Matthew 5:17 NIV
"...Until all is finished..."
@Pond3r Thiz do you understand what law he fulfilled?
So do he think he a gentile then. It's still important to know who we are. I'm a Hebrew that's my ethnicity but I am a Christian. I'm thankful to know who I am in Christ. But joyful to know what my nationality is. Amen praise Yahushua Hamashiach 🙏🏾
I don't know if I would use the term ethnicity to describe yourself as a Hebrew. I think that's got more to do with your spiritual conviction. There are many people who claim to be descendants of Israel all over the world, but not all believe in Christ as Messiah. The prophetic scriptures (for Israel) are speaking about the lost descendants who also know the Messiah and have the Holy Spirit. That's why the Hebrew movement is coming out of Christianity, (specifiaclly African American christians), but not orthodox Judaism (who are also descendants of Israel, but don't believe in Christ). The gospel was spread by Christianity to bring salvation to the scattered descendants of Israel. This is all prophesied in the scriptures, but most of the christian churches do not have ears to hear.
48:00 re: The Conquest Narratives. God could have made Israel into a massive empire. Instead his plan was to bless the other nations by having Israel as an example of what a just society looked like
Whoops, Dr McCaulley says this later!
This is so good! God bless you both!
But it shall come to pass, if thou wilt not hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy God, to observe to do all his commandments and his statutes which I command thee this day; that all these curses shall come upon thee, and overtake thee:
Deuteronomy 28:15 KJV -
(The curse of Deuteronomy were on the Israelites NOT the gentiles nations, so when Paul says "Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree"
Galatians 3:13 KJV
(Was he talking to gentiles who were NEVER given the law to be cursed by)
So who did Jesus come to redeem from the curses of the law? And what Law if not the one given in Deuteronomy?)
and they shall be upon thee for a sign and for a wonder, and upon thy seed FOREVER.
Deuteronomy 28:46 KJV
(GOD said these curses would be upon the Israelites FOREVER, as a sign. How long is forever? Did God not know he was gonna send Jesus to end the curse? If forever means forever you should see these curse should be a SIGN to identify who are the Israelites today.
deu.28.46.KJV)
And they shall fall by the edge of the sword, and shall be led away captive into all nations: and Jerusalem shall be trodden down of the Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles be fulfilled.
Luke 21:24 KJV
(Jesus said this would happen, that Judah would be lead away captive into ALL NATIONS.This happend in 70 ad and the children of Israel fled into Africa like they always have and was taken into all nationsby the Arab and Trans AtlanticSlaveTrade)
I believe IF we arebin Christ there is no curse However as a people(Black people) we are not all in Christ hence the curses of Deuteronomy 28 are still on our people as a SIGN & Wonder forever just as The Most High declared
I need to repost what Lisa said starting at 56:16
I learned what the Torah is. So would today's Jewish community be considered Sadducees?
Good point, but we know today Jews are not Jews. We are the house of Israel the bible is plain. Shalom sister 🙏🏾
I believe the Word interpret is not or I don't believe it is a good idea, notion or practice for we as Christians to use, exercise or practice when it comes to what God has truly purposed originally to be our way of coming to how God would have us to come to an understanding of the Word of God. If God breathed into Holy men to write it then we must come to the point as Christians were we allow ONLY that SAME BREATH TO GIVE US HOLY GHOST REVELATION OF GOD'S WORD. MAN'S AND RELIGIOUS INTERPRETATION IS IN MY PERSPECTIVE THE REASON WHY THERE IS SO MUCH DIVISION IN THE BODY. BUT WITH GOD THERE IS ONLY ONE SPIRIT, ONE FAITH, ONE BAPTISM AND ONE WAY GOD INTENDED FOR US TO UNDERSTAND HIS WORD EVEN IF THE SCRIPTURE HAS MULTIPLE TRUTH INFLECTIONS IF YOU WILL. LETS DO HOLY GHOST REVELATION MY BELOVED CHRISTIANS AND BE CAREFUL NOT TO BELIEVE THAT'S BEING TOO RELIGIOUS AND TOO DEEPLY SPIRITUAL. ITS THE INTERPRETATION'S THAT ARE DIVISIVE AND RELIGIOUS, NEVER HOLY GHOST REVELATION. AMEN!...SELAH!
In the beginning God. Man over thinks, over analyzes it. There is no expert on Scripture but the Christ. Furthermore Christ didn't need a business suit, website or a 501c3
