Please pray for my brother. He is dealing with depression and has been in and out of mental institutions for years. He is taking different pills for his depression. He has also practiced new age and eastern religions in the past but is now starting to believe in God. Pray that God would save him and release him from the chains that satan has bound my brother in. In the name of Jesus Christ, Lord of Lord and King of Kings. Amen.

it is so beautiful how God takes all these cultural details that seem "bad", and uses them to elevate and bring true justice to all the people! The idea that He calls us ALL firstborn because we are clothed with the blood of Jesus (so we are all the same), is in it of itself a paradox, but it is the truth by which God wants us to walk! I am not saying that we are Gods like Jesus was and is, but spiritually He has given us the coverage of His blood so that we are recognised as Him, as long as we strive to become more like Him also. So yes there is The firstborn of God, who is Jesus, and then there is an army of smaller (not Gods) firstborns that are all equal to the eyes of the Father!! it is such a perfect story of unity, equality and love! Praise be to the Lord God all mighty!!

I’m right near the end of the podcast on the Bible Project app (shameless plug) and John is commenting on Jesus being the first born of all creation; it was here that I realised also that Jesus was the first born of 1) Mary, but also of 2) the Holy Spirit of God. I thought that was interesting and kind of effects the meaning of first born of creation for me. Thought I’d share
14:03 I just wanted to add, since we're sympathizing that the first born male isn't just chosen over the female for patriarchal reasons. Women got married into other families so the first born female inheriting most of the family assets was the same as giving their inheritance to another family.
My moms side of my family (I’m 1/2 Micronesian) is very very strict on first born sort of stuff. From little things like they get the front seat of the car lol to things like they get the land that is owned by their parents immediately after their parents die. Things are different for me tho…I feel like although my dad doesn’t exactly pick a favorite, I just definitely have a closer relationship with my dad than my older sister. (He’s not Micronesian btw.) About my sister…Let’s just say she’s not as kind to others and is always getting in trouble in the work place for picking fights left n right. This is also how it’s been with her growing up towards myself and between her n my dad. To add to it, whenever my dad does stuff for me or helps me out, she always gets an angry jealousy. And since she is angry so much, when my dad finally does try to make her feel special, she casts it aside….at the same time while complaining she deserves more as first born child. What I see is in the same way God’s chosen ppl were first but when Jesus came they rejected Him and then the rest of the world is able to receive this Gift (they were the 2nd). But just like my sister, the love from the Father is still there and available to those who believe and receive it…don’t push it away because of stubborn, hard hearts. That’s what this all comes down to: the condition of one’s own heart, birth rights actually mean nothing if u really think about it. God reads our hearts…yes He watches over us and that doesn’t just mean as protection but also that He sees everything; we cannot hide our sins. Let’s always remember to repent and stay ready for the day He comes knocking. Our hearts need to stay open and full of love for Him and others. ❤
Thank you for sharing your testimony question Have you tried praying for her your sister? Persistently fervently pray for her intercessory prayer Psalm 91 over her some 23 over her Ephesians 6 over her 1st Corinthians about love over her Pray over her Don't stop praying over her what you see she is You say Lord I have no control but you do so Lord I thank you and then that you go on from there with your prayer God has shown me over and over in my 50 something years that prayer works and prayer works best when the 2 or more gathered.. So I'm going to keep you and your sister in my prayers your father too your entire family will be changed once you start praying for her and praying for yourself Have the patience to go through because while you're praying for her you're endurance is growing and your perseverance is growing and your character is growing and you're countenance is growing and you'll be blessed You'll see God bless you Thank you again for sharing your testimony It's important for people to share their testimonies so people around up like me or others and learn something from it Amen

I dont think the introduction is quite right. If i understand it correctly they think that the first born is a middle eastern patriatic power structure build by men? I dont think that is true. The firstborn is what God created, even in sacrifices the first born is the one that needs to be sacrificed. God says all what is first belongs to me. So it is not a their own idea. It came from God. However the firstborn right could be given away as we have seen with Jacob and Esau. Jesus is the first born of Mary and is the first to have everlasting life. The firstborn does mean something in Gods eyes.

Adam was the first born human, Jesus was God’s first born child. I believe the references to this word first born is used to refer to both man and Jesus. Have to take the time to say Tim and John you guys are awesome and this is by far the best podcast I’ve ever engaged in. Thank you.
I heard the term "invert" more than the term "redeem", and "redeem" seems more appropriate when talking about patterns and Christ's fulfillment of those patterns.
It’s my understanding that law of primogeniture stems from the problems that arise from splitting property equally among children. This would fractionalize their land and wealth over the generations. Future offspring with Less may also be inclined to start ownership disputes to get more for their family. Families that practiced equity would thus likely dilute their power over time and get wiped out.
God is not opposed to the first born law. It is His Law that He instituted. When someone other than the first born is chosen, the elder brother or brothers invariably disqualify themselves in some way. The Messiah of course did not disqualify Himself in any way.
Obedience unto death first and last. Jesus didn’t allow God to build him up to become ruler material and then choose to not obey God like creation, which is to be the only begotten. It’s to maintain servitude in this life trusting that your reward is in heaven while you’re being renewed, by the power of God to continue as a servant/leader through trails, tribulations and suffering with patience which are at war with the flesh, but in the midst of these things you discover life and the secret to being content in all things, the first begotten is the work of God and it’s "begotteness” is its constant keeping in line with God which is to be in truth and spirit.
Hi Bible project teachers, love all the work you continue to do and when I become more financially stable I will be donating because I truly love how you address the Bible. Teaching from the writer's point of view. Reason for my comment, I do know being first at the table or who ate first was important in some families because the portions became less as the plate was passed around. If you are the firstborn and work all day they would have first dibs. Plz, correct me if I'm wrong with the information I can not cite because I can't remember where I read this.
I am paying attention to the podcast but also enjoying the bumper music in the background. Could you let me know or give a list of who is playing. Ty 😊
Yahuah is not overturning man's power structure, it may be an effect of his action but it is certainly not his goal. Instead, he shows us that being firstborn is not physical but spiritual; not the age of the body but the maturity of character. This is also reinforced in the book of Wisdom of Solomon where it is written that old age to Yahuah is not grey hair or wrinkled skin but the level of a man's familiarity with him. Notice when we describe someone as childish? The body may have fully grown but the spirit lacks familiarity with Yahuah's character hence they don't know how to act properly. And that is our sole purpose on earth, to bring to fullness the character of Yahuah that he filled us with; our sense of mercy, generosity, justice, etc so that we may become whole/one just like Yahuah is whole/one.
Solomon is actually not Bathsheba's first son either, as her first son with David dies, seemingly as a punishment for David's son by murdering her husband and etc.
@@martinkent333 Truly educated & intelligent people don't look up and just believe information online. Only normal and averagely-educated people do that, like you, since they just follow what they were taught in school & conditioned what to believe in as real by their environment. Perhaps you can provide scientific evidence supporting your claims about the Bible being fiction, with your own research and not by something you read online by something written by someone else which you believe in & place your faith in, which are the very same things that you belittle people who believe the words written on the Bible of.

My parents always said the first born should get the biggest inheritance because their most mistakes are made on them 😂 But on a serious note, the first born child also grows up with a much stronger inclination towards servitude than the second or third etc kids. Maybe there's something there about servant leadership? In relation to the second child, the first gets taught to "be careful and help with" the younger, to be kind and mindful that their younger sib doesn't understand what they are doing as well yet so forgive them their ignorance where the second grows up very quickly realising they need to compete with the first in order to "get what they deem should be theirs"
Great sermon ❤️🙏🙌❣️🥺I love how both of you explain this topic yes God know what is best he will elevate who he whiches to we just need to trust his plan he created us for his purpose and to give each of us an expected end once we submit to him
Solomon was not even Batsheeba's first either! Her first son died as an infant as a punishment for David's sin... and since Batsheeba lost both her husband and her son in consequence of David's hubris, it says David "went to console her" and got her pregnant (with Solomon). I think it was God's way to console her, for her child became then became the chosen one to lead Israel after David.
Jesus is the first born for being the first one to have done the Father"s will, first one to be resurrected from the dead and the first one to have triumphed over evil.
Basically, God doesn’t care what order you come in. Whether first, or last. What He cares about is your character. God is looking for generals of faith to lead His army against the enemy. To tackle the spiritual strangleholds, to allow Him to work through to touch the hearts and minds of the lost. First borns…typically kinda suck at giving God the glory. 😂 Also, Jesus is known for being the second man-the first was Adam, where death entered. So, while Jesus was there in the beginning-truly the Firstborn among firstborns-He still was in some sense, not the first.
Interesting that in 3 John, Diotropes is said by the apostle John to have the "desire to be first". He refused to welcome John, one of the original 12 Jewish disciples. Diotrophes is a gentile. What are the implications here regarding the division between jewish and gentile church.

I’ve a question: if the Septuagint was ‘tuned to the key of greek culture’ and the NT was a marriage of the two… are the references to greek mythology purely symbolic? I’ve always thought that most cultures tell a similar story of the history told in Genesis. Especially the Genesis 6 story. I presumed that the Heavenly host that rebelled and came into human women were synonymous with the story of the Greek titans, and so forth, and the wars that ensued between them and their offspring being one and the same story but told through a different cultural lens.
I know Jesus is the true and rightful firstborn of God. But isn’t there an element of Adam representing the first born of God in a Sonship roll. One of the Gospels genealogy tracks all the way back to Adam stating Adam the son of God. Even though Jesus was before Adam when it comes to his role as son of God isn’t Jesus kind of fulfilling a second born role in the biblical narrative. With Adam fulfilling the canonical firstborn role. Therefore staying true to the consistent Bible narrative of God inverting the firstborn status?
Ok, I'm really confused... You're saying that "earlier human history" was hunter gather, before we settled and farmed? That's absolutely not what the Bible says... Genesis had a VERY different account. Adam and Eve were told by God Himself, when they were booted from Eden that they would have to farm to raise provisions as the ground would no longer naturally provide for them. The first family was a farming family.
That was a good discussion guys, thx...I have but one issue, well it connects to others, but with the Eternal Son-ship of Jesus. How do you weigh it against Isaiah 9:6 Everlasting Father and against Revelation 3:6, Jesus speaking as the Spirit to the churches. Even John 14 where Jesus reveals the mystery of the Godhead to his fledgling disciples. Later to be recalled thru that same Spirit, authenticating and validating the Acts of the Apostles; even as Rev.3:6 confirms. These key scriptures and biblical language that only speaks of Jesus reigning as LORD forever, even as the Everlasting Father, who has been Spirit twice(Gen 1:2): the only solid identification of Messiah, yesterday, today and forever...I don't care for councils, creeds, denominations (fractures) or the opinions of old fathers. I understand the Bible and the revelation of Jesus Christ to me, as the Spirit. Even what the Son of man and Son of God meant in his time; as he was the Lamb of God as provided for the Abrahamic sacrifice. He is not the Eternal Lamb either, but the reigning King, which is symbolized by a Lion wearing a crown... You're the Bible project, but like other teachers and students of study, you layer the beliefs of men on top of the given scripture of God.

Yes, having invisible enemies is clinical paranoia, a serious mental illness. Second born sons in creepy cults who never type Bible Criticism online and then discover that the Holy Bible is complete fiction - find the world is a very tough place. How educated are you?
Your spoke of all the first born sons of Israel being specially belonging to Yahweh. For a purpose other than rulership in society? Therefore younger sons were given that rulership? Jesus as first born did not seek human rulership. He was given it only after His resurrection?
God defines blessings, man trys to subvert these blessings for who THEY want. God looks for worth. He isn't putting firstborns down for some birth order thing.?
And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it. Colossians 2:15Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath days: Colossians 2:16Let no man beguile you of your reward in a voluntary humility and worshipping of angels, intruding into those things which he hath not seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind, Colossians 2:18Wherefore if ye be dead with Christ from the rudiments of the world, why, as though living in the world, are ye subject to ordinances, Colossians 2:20(Touch not; taste not; handle not; Colossians 2:21Which all are to perish with the using;) after the commandments and doctrines of men? Colossians 2:22Which things have indeed a shew of wisdom in will worship, and humility, and neglecting of the body: not in any honour to the satisfying of the flesh. Colossians 2:23 Paul, in these final verse of the chapter lf Colossians, mocks, directly, Hebrew Clmsmology because it adheres to old Jewish traditions and angels and demons, saying that they don't even have any actual evidence that it is true. He points out even more exactly that it has nothing at all to do with Jesus Christ, who has saved us all by his blood and sacrifice of punishment and death, rising again, and putting to shame all those angels who wanted him dead and gone to take his place, even the same knew whom are given more attention then is due them. Depart from these things beloved, for God has called us to a table that those who serve the tabernacle, from whence the presence of God as vanished, have no right. For we serve the Lord Jesus Christ.
Be not carried about with divers and strange doctrines. For it is a good thing that the heart be established with grace; not with meats, which have not profited them that have been occupied therein. Hebrews 13:9We have an altar, whereof they have no right to eat which serve the tabernacle. Hebrews 13:10For the bodies of those beasts, whose blood is brought into the sanctuary by the high priest for sin, are burned without the camp. Hebrews 13:11Let us go forth therefore unto him without the camp, bearing his reproach. Hebrews 13:13By him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of our lips giving thanks to his name. Hebrews 13:15But to do good and to communicate forget not: for with such sacrifices God is well pleased. Hebrews 13:16Now the God of peace, that brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great shepherd of the sheep, through the blood of the everlasting covenant, Hebrews 13:20

Adam was the first born human, Jesus was God’s first born child. I believe the references to this word first born is used to refer to both man and Jesus. Have to take the time to say Tim and John you guys are awesome and this is by far the best podcast I’ve ever engaged in. Thank you.
I heard the term "invert" more than the term "redeem", and "redeem" seems more appropriate when talking about patterns and Christ's fulfillment of those patterns.
It’s my understanding that law of primogeniture stems from the problems that arise from splitting property equally among children. This would fractionalize their land and wealth over the generations. Future offspring with Less may also be inclined to start ownership disputes to get more for their family. Families that practiced equity would thus likely dilute their power over time and get wiped out.
remind us Lord that our ways are not your ways because your ways are so much higher than ours
God is not opposed to the first born law. It is His Law that He instituted. When someone other than the first born is chosen, the elder brother or brothers invariably disqualify themselves in some way. The Messiah of course did not disqualify Himself in any way.
Obedience unto death first and last. Jesus didn’t allow God to build him up to become ruler material and then choose to not obey God like creation, which is to be the only begotten. It’s to maintain servitude in this life trusting that your reward is in heaven while you’re being renewed, by the power of God to continue as a servant/leader through trails, tribulations and suffering with patience which are at war with the flesh, but in the midst of these things you discover life and the secret to being content in all things, the first begotten is the work of God and it’s "begotteness” is its constant keeping in line with God which is to be in truth and spirit.
Hi Bible project teachers, love all the work you continue to do and when I become more financially stable I will be donating because I truly love how you address the Bible. Teaching from the writer's point of view. Reason for my comment, I do know being first at the table or who ate first was important in some families because the portions became less as the plate was passed around. If you are the firstborn and work all day they would have first dibs. Plz, correct me if I'm wrong with the information I can not cite because I can't remember where I read this.
I am paying attention to the podcast but also enjoying the bumper music in the background. Could you let me know or give a list of who is playing. Ty 😊
Yahuah is not overturning man's power structure, it may be an effect of his action but it is certainly not his goal. Instead, he shows us that being firstborn is not physical but spiritual; not the age of the body but the maturity of character. This is also reinforced in the book of Wisdom of Solomon where it is written that old age to Yahuah is not grey hair or wrinkled skin but the level of a man's familiarity with him. Notice when we describe someone as childish? The body may have fully grown but the spirit lacks familiarity with Yahuah's character hence they don't know how to act properly. And that is our sole purpose on earth, to bring to fullness the character of Yahuah that he filled us with; our sense of mercy, generosity, justice, etc so that we may become whole/one just like Yahuah is whole/one.
God has liberated me
Solomon is actually not Bathsheba's first son either, as her first son with David dies, seemingly as a punishment for David's son by murdering her husband and etc.
I’ve experienced a denomination which seems to place more importance in a diocese than worshipping God our Heavenly Father.
NORMAL people type Bible Criticism online and discover the Bible is fiction. How educated are you?
@@martinkent333 Truly educated & intelligent people don't look up and just believe information online. Only normal and averagely-educated people do that, like you, since they just follow what they were taught in school & conditioned what to believe in as real by their environment. Perhaps you can provide scientific evidence supporting your claims about the Bible being fiction, with your own research and not by something you read online by something written by someone else which you believe in & place your faith in, which are the very same things that you belittle people who believe the words written on the Bible of.
@@leonaj.5835 Kids, faith - not facts. Only stupid people use facts to master reality and make 'unarguability' their friend. Better to trust sleazy Christian hustlers, who have invisible enemies and a fear of eternal hellfire, which is clinical paranoia, a serious mental illness. This attracts converts who swallow poo. Mastering reality may seem mature, but trusting sleazy religious hustlers is better. You can blame your invisible enemies for every negligent deed you do!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Slick eh????????????????
Can't wait till the second video
Christian brainwashing is unimaginably honest. How educated are you, Dan? NORMAL people type Bible Criticism online and discover the Bible is fiction, Rube..................
love the long vids
Jon: *Making a random point
Tim: yea,yea.. yea yea yea!!😂 I love y’all manne I promise I do! 💯🙏💈
Thank God
I love this podcast 🤍
Christian brainwashing keeps the cult alive! Invincible!!!!!!!!!! How educated are you?
My parents always said the first born should get the biggest inheritance because their most mistakes are made on them 😂
But on a serious note, the first born child also grows up with a much stronger inclination towards servitude than the second or third etc kids. Maybe there's something there about servant leadership? In relation to the second child, the first gets taught to "be careful and help with" the younger, to be kind and mindful that their younger sib doesn't understand what they are doing as well yet so forgive them their ignorance where the second grows up very quickly realising they need to compete with the first in order to "get what they deem should be theirs"
I like the podcast type video, but please have one without the bg music, makes it easier to focus on a longer listen
Listening from jamaica
Great sermon ❤️🙏🙌❣️🥺I love how both of you explain this topic yes God know what is best he will elevate who he whiches to we just need to trust his plan he created us for his purpose and to give each of us an expected end once we submit to him
So no education, eh Rube? Normal people type Bible Criticism online and discover the Bible is fiction.
Solomon was not even Batsheeba's first either! Her first son died as an infant as a punishment for David's sin... and since Batsheeba lost both her husband and her son in consequence of David's hubris, it says David "went to console her" and got her pregnant (with Solomon). I think it was God's way to console her, for her child became then became the chosen one to lead Israel after David.
Thank you for the video
God says we are brothers and sisters.
Jesus is the first born for being the first one to have done the Father"s will, first one to be resurrected from the dead and the first one to have triumphed over evil.
Love it, but ads every 3 minutes is a bit too much...
Basically, God doesn’t care what order you come in. Whether first, or last. What He cares about is your character. God is looking for generals of faith to lead His army against the enemy. To tackle the spiritual strangleholds, to allow Him to work through to touch the hearts and minds of the lost. First borns…typically kinda suck at giving God the glory. 😂
Also, Jesus is known for being the second man-the first was Adam, where death entered. So, while Jesus was there in the beginning-truly the Firstborn among firstborns-He still was in some sense, not the first.
Solomon was not Bathsheba’s first born. Her first born with David passed away
Sorry can I repost your videos on my RUclips channel especially those summeries of Bible Books
When will this drop on the app 👀
Solomon wasn't even Bathsheba's first son either
Interesting that in 3 John, Diotropes is said by the apostle John to have the "desire to be first". He refused to welcome John, one of the original 12 Jewish disciples. Diotrophes is a gentile.
What are the implications here regarding the division between jewish and gentile church.

Birth order and gender!!!
I’ve a question: if the Septuagint was ‘tuned to the key of greek culture’ and the NT was a marriage of the two… are the references to greek mythology purely symbolic? I’ve always thought that most cultures tell a similar story of the history told in Genesis. Especially the Genesis 6 story. I presumed that the Heavenly host that rebelled and came into human women were synonymous with the story of the Greek titans, and so forth, and the wars that ensued between them and their offspring being one and the same story but told through a different cultural lens.
The Greek cultural myths are corruptions of the true story of our world. I recommend you read ‘Unseen Realm’ by Michael Heiser.
Amen
May I submit a suggestion of the verb to describe the producing of “the first” in English as it might pertains to agriculture- first flushing
I know Jesus is the true and rightful firstborn of God. But isn’t there an element of Adam representing the first born of God in a Sonship roll. One of the Gospels genealogy tracks all the way back to Adam stating Adam the son of God. Even though Jesus was before Adam when it comes to his role as son of God isn’t Jesus kind of fulfilling a second born role in the biblical narrative. With Adam fulfilling the canonical firstborn role. Therefore staying true to the consistent Bible narrative of God inverting the firstborn status?
Ok, I'm really confused... You're saying that "earlier human history" was hunter gather, before we settled and farmed?
That's absolutely not what the Bible says... Genesis had a VERY different account. Adam and Eve were told by God Himself, when they were booted from Eden that they would have to farm to raise provisions as the ground would no longer naturally provide for them.
The first family was a farming family.
Fist viewer. Yes
That was a good discussion guys, thx...I have but one issue, well it connects to others, but with the Eternal Son-ship of Jesus. How do you weigh it against Isaiah 9:6 Everlasting Father and against Revelation 3:6, Jesus speaking as the Spirit to the churches. Even John 14 where Jesus reveals the mystery of the Godhead to his fledgling disciples. Later to be recalled thru that same Spirit, authenticating and validating the Acts of the Apostles; even as Rev.3:6 confirms. These key scriptures and biblical language that only speaks of Jesus reigning as LORD forever, even as the Everlasting Father, who has been Spirit twice(Gen 1:2): the only solid identification of Messiah, yesterday, today and forever...I don't care for councils, creeds, denominations (fractures) or the opinions of old fathers. I understand the Bible and the revelation of Jesus Christ to me, as the Spirit. Even what the Son of man and Son of God meant in his time; as he was the Lamb of God as provided for the Abrahamic sacrifice. He is not the Eternal Lamb either, but the reigning King, which is symbolized by a Lion wearing a crown... You're the Bible project, but like other teachers and students of study, you layer the beliefs of men on top of the given scripture of God.
I guess they know in part and prophesy in part but I really appreciate all that you wrote and said.
@@allendodd4844 Yes, I think we all know in part, even our part. The measure that he gives, for his purposes. We all understand different things at a different rate. I'm glad that you liked it. Thx. Blessings
Does the bible give any advice to those 2nd born sons who deal with the insecurity that is inherent with this position in life?
Yes, having invisible enemies is clinical paranoia, a serious mental illness. Second born sons in creepy cults who never type Bible Criticism online and then discover that the Holy Bible is complete fiction - find the world is a very tough place. How educated are you?
Your spoke of all the first born sons of Israel being specially belonging to Yahweh. For a purpose other than rulership in society? Therefore younger sons were given that rulership? Jesus as first born did not seek human rulership. He was given it only after His resurrection?

Sadly you have repeated over and over and over for the first half hour what could’ve been summed up in about three sentences. I can’t finish this.
🙏🏿
Solomon is Bathsheba's second born for her first born died soon after birth as punishment for the affair.
God defines blessings, man trys to subvert these blessings for who THEY want. God looks for worth. He isn't putting firstborns down for some birth order thing.?
So the true 1st born does get double portions, interesting.
Verb for first fruit or a woman's womb with seed = Harvest
Wait till they discover that Hebrew Cosmology is true too. It was good enough for Moses.
Yea, idk about that bro
And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it. Colossians 2:15Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath days: Colossians 2:16Let no man beguile you of your reward in a voluntary humility and worshipping of angels, intruding into those things which he hath not seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind, Colossians 2:18Wherefore if ye be dead with Christ from the rudiments of the world, why, as though living in the world, are ye subject to ordinances, Colossians 2:20(Touch not; taste not; handle not; Colossians 2:21Which all are to perish with the using;) after the commandments and doctrines of men? Colossians 2:22Which things have indeed a shew of wisdom in will worship, and humility, and neglecting of the body: not in any honour to the satisfying of the flesh. Colossians 2:23
Paul, in these final verse of the chapter lf Colossians, mocks, directly, Hebrew Clmsmology because it adheres to old Jewish traditions and angels and demons, saying that they don't even have any actual evidence that it is true. He points out even more exactly that it has nothing at all to do with Jesus Christ, who has saved us all by his blood and sacrifice of punishment and death, rising again, and putting to shame all those angels who wanted him dead and gone to take his place, even the same knew whom are given more attention then is due them. Depart from these things beloved, for God has called us to a table that those who serve the tabernacle, from whence the presence of God as vanished, have no right. For we serve the Lord Jesus Christ.
Be not carried about with divers and strange doctrines. For it is a good thing that the heart be established with grace; not with meats, which have not profited them that have been occupied therein. Hebrews 13:9We have an altar, whereof they have no right to eat which serve the tabernacle. Hebrews 13:10For the bodies of those beasts, whose blood is brought into the sanctuary by the high priest for sin, are burned without the camp. Hebrews 13:11Let us go forth therefore unto him without the camp, bearing his reproach. Hebrews 13:13By him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of our lips giving thanks to his name. Hebrews 13:15But to do good and to communicate forget not: for with such sacrifices God is well pleased. Hebrews 13:16Now the God of peace, that brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great shepherd of the sheep, through the blood of the everlasting covenant, Hebrews 13:20
That won't save you though

First 7 minutes were so boring I lons my interest
Sounds like you suffer with a short attention span
Me too

Good at teaching but get to the point lol
Sorry guys, but the first 6 minutes are a waste of time. :/ You are repeating yourself and it sounds like you want to fill time for some reason. Come to the point. Therefore a dislike from me
Did you listen to thr whole podcast, or just 9 minutes?
@@HearGodsWord I stopped after 6 minutes. I imagined the whole thing was going to be dragged like they did in the first 6 minutes.
@@Ritermann so you listened to only a tiny fraction before judging and disliking.
@@HearGodsWord Yes, and that's what I said from the beginning. I was judging the first 6 minutes based on what I heard in those 6 minutes. What's wrong about it?
@@Ritermann I don't see that's enough time to rate a podcast and give it a dislike
