The following program is recorded content created by your Zero seven two two seven six and if you want to watch you can watch I have a nice a nice shirt on It's a nice color.

It's really kind of a bright kind of an ocean greenish kind of nice color any rate and At the headset on got no callers waiting even call tonight tonight. I have a debate in two hours on The doctrine of the Trinity, and I'll be debating a guy turbo turbo turbo Ville turbo Ville. I think his name is and So it should be interesting. I've got a debate tonight and another debate in two weeks on oneness versus Trinity And the oneness theological position is heresy.

It's a false doctrine they also teach That you have to be baptized quote unquote in Jesus name in order to be saved And you can lose your salvation and the reason you can lose your salvation and all cults and false religious systems is because it Depends in part on your goodness your ability etc etc if you're standing before God depended on you and Your ability to keep yourself right with him you've got a problem Because that means that you don't have a good idea who God is and you have way too good an idea of who you are Because I'll tell you there's no way that any of us are good enough to be able to Keep maintain achieve salvation with the infinitely holy God it just cannot happen And so when this theology denies a doctrine of the Trinity and because of that It plays footloose With the incarnation and we'll be getting into that tonight. I'm sure And stuff like that and Kevin D. In the chat says who's excited about tonight's debate? Hopefully, it'll be interesting.

We'll see what's going to happen. I'm gonna hold his feet to the fire and you know go through scriptures and stuff like that and As I like to do with logic. I like to use logic. You know most Unbelievers when I first started talking to a lot of atheists a Little a few years ago. They were not expecting a Christian to be as logical As I was and applying the laws of logic rules of logic to them.

They weren't used to that They're used to just having Christians give give you know emotional answers without any substance and So, you know Hey, there's a lot of us out there who use logic and evidence All right for open lines. Give me a call eight seven seven two zero seven two two two seven six by the way about the debate tonight if you want to watch it live and you can participate in the chat and Things like that. Just go to the CARM Facebook page carm dot o RG and the information will be there. You can also go to carm.org Forward slash calendar and you can see the date today's date. There's a link on YouTube for that.

You can watch that there All right, pretty simple. All right, let's get to Danny from Germany Wow. Hey Danny.

Welcome. You're on the air I Met thank you for taking my call Be back in your show again. Hey in a few years. How are you?

I'm okay. You sound familiar Okay, so you called before right You have yeah if you were on the old station Oh, that's right. It's been a few years ago. Yes. Yes. That's right. It has been a few years. That's right.

Yeah, my mom. Mm-hmm Yeah, yeah and now it's time to call again because things are getting a bit worse down here and So I'd like to ask you about the whole COVID situation and I I am I listen to your shows because I listen to them every day and Recently you were you have the issue of stelski fans. So my question goes into that direction The other day I saw a clip from the post league India Where a villages chased the vaccination team out of their village by throwing stones at them? And I saw another clip before Yeah, yeah, that's crazy And I saw another clip from India before where one of those vaccination teams chased a woman To enforce vaccination on her and they did it actually against her will and that was very disturbing and so I could understand the reaction of those villagers and And so I was wondering how far could someone go in regard of self-defense?

against the potentially dangerous mandatory vaccination Yeah, self-defense We have the right of self-defense biblically and I gotta finish that article I got so much going with preps for debates and things like that but um, I Had a I don't have it on right now But I had to go out for a doctor's appointment today and I had on my shirt make 1984 fiction again and 1984 Yeah, it was a great novel and it's called a science fiction dystopian novel It's about big brother controlling people and having control markers telling the populace what to do what to believe they were in control of the media in court and control of history and And that combined with my study of cults over the years this COVID response from the government society the people in control is is pretty terrifying to me because It's it's control markers for what I understand the common cold statistics versus COVID are pretty even there was a great deal of misreporting for COVID It was all over the place. I don't know how it is in Germany But if you know you were in a car accident and you know, you got a ruptured lungs and you're dying But you happen to test positive for COVID and then you died. Oh, it's COVID death COVID related death And so they would do stuff. Yeah, that's the same here.

Yeah, they confess it Yeah, it's ridiculous. And when they get rid of all of that kind of stuff They find they found that it's only at least last that stats. I found it's only slightly more deadly Than the common flu.

It's just a common flu again. It comes around each year So why then did they not enforce everything back then? I believe that's because the people in control are trying to to force us into certain kinds of behavior is called thesis antithesis and When you have a society that has a certain level of acceptance of freedom and restrictions And you want to control that society.

You don't overthrow the society all at once you move that line Towards more control little by little so people get used to it So the thesis becomes the antithesis and then that after a while that becomes the new thesis and then you move it again And that becomes a new antithesis and it goes on so you move it to the new thesis You move it to the left where they have more control People get used to it and then they stay like that for a while and then you push it again with something else and then Gradually people lose their freedoms and their rights. This is what's happening here in America. I'm assuming in Germany as well and I I'm against it.

I'm absolutely against it. I had to go to the doctors today And you got to wear a mask I could even shake the doctor's hands, you know, and it's just this is insane. It's ridiculous What's happening? I'm in Idaho of all places, you know where basically you still have freedom But I don't know what it is with people. What do you want? What's that? You lucky one In Germany, it's getting pretty harder and harder for unvaccinated people.

They're raising the pressure Yep, they're doing the same thing here. You have to have a vaccination passport and It's a lot of people are saying no, we don't want this, you know They're forcing a medicine upon us that we don't want I had kovat I had it. My wife has had it and Last month about four weeks ago or so ago give or take a friend of mine was here from California And he got kovat he went and got tested Confirmed he had kovat and he said he was really sorry He was gonna drive home so he would infect us. I said no, I was out of state I said no stay there and I got there a few days later and He was still with the symptoms for another week and I'm with him every day For hours in the same house along with my wife who has serious medical conditions And she didn't catch it. She didn't get anything.

I didn't get anything. We're fine. I had no symptoms whatsoever I had it once I'm over it Why are they forcing us to wear masks? I'm telling you why it's a control marker They want control over the people if they can get everybody to accept of Vaccination passport then to be that much more ready to accept markers under your skin in order to have Chips implanted for other purposes and once they do that they have you under their control Because then you can't buy or sell without the government's permission and this is the road It's leading down. This is why we need to resist this all over the place All over and yeah, I'm saying over the radio. We need to resist it. Absolutely and the way to do at least here in America is through voting and Calling your Congress people and your senators that say we've had enough of this you call everyone you send emails That's the way you start I get some other ideas too, but that's that's one of the things you should do So, okay You know, how far would you would you go to to defend your right to let's say Go to the grocery store without a vaccination passport or something like that Well, you see here's the thing is what do you do if they won't let you in unless you have been verified Vaccinated and you can't buy us and get food Well, I'm gonna be forced to submit to the government at that point or to buy food unless I could be self-sufficient Somehow which I can't but even then if I was self-sufficient on a plot of land Then in order to pay your bills You're gonna have to have verification that you have a vaccination passport because you're against the government and against the side and you're dangerous So then you know I could see them doing what the Nazis did in Germany when they started moving the Jews into Varying neighborhoods and have made them wear identification markers. And this is the same thing. I'm worried about here. I I just you know, yeah So, you know and and I'm a firm believer in peaceful resistance and We Christians need to be united and we need to say enough and the Christians need to stand up All over the place, but too many Christians are not willing to sacrifice too many Christians are not willing to risk But we need to be united and the pastors in all pulpits need to be preaching politics when necessary Not every day not every Sunday, but when necessary and the reason is Because every area of life is to be submitted to the lordship of Christ That means every thing I vote on every phone call Every person I support all this must be under the lordship of Jesus Christ That's why Christians are necessarily supposed to be involved in politics and it's why when necessary that the preachers preach politics from the pulpit and They need to do it and a lot of pastors say no separates a church in state. That's not biblical It's not biblical and don't submit to the state Because the more you submit to the state the more it will gain control and it never will give it back the unfortunately Through history the only way that the powers and be that are in place like that And that kind of a regime where it every complete control the only way I've ever known in history is through violence And that's not what we want.

This is bad news. Hey, do you want to hold down here from Germany? But you want to hold you what are we done?

Well, if you have the time, yeah, okay, okay. Hey folks be right back after these messages three open lines eight seven seven two zero seven two two seven six be right back It's Matt slick live taking your calls at eight seven seven two zero seven two two seven six here's Matt slick I'm ready. Welcome back to the show. Let's get back on there with Danny from Germany.

Thanks for waiting buddy. All right, where were we? Yeah, oh we talked about the issue of safety fans and you know, I would go back to the initial question if do I step do I understand it correctly that If someone would would force me or would like to force me to take it by force to defend myself because I'm I strongly believe it would do harm to my body Then it would be correct to defend myself with all I have Understand that correctly. Mm-hmm. Yep. Yeah, there's a doctor's office and somebody came in to try and hold me down to take forces shot on me I'd my martial arts would kick in and and take care of it. I'd say nope No, that's it Okay, I don't have that Okay, yeah, you know if it's for you I'm going to Israel next year That's the plan and it might be necessary for people in order to go to have to have the vaccination at That point if I choose to get it, it would be for that reason to be able to go Because others are going because I'm going so that's a reason why I would consider taking it But it'd be my choice not forced upon me. So that's just I have to wrestle with now.

Yeah Yeah, well, I'll wrestle with later. Well, we'll see what happens then So, okay, okay Self-defense and the government's job is to protect its citizens and To provide safety and borders and for the provision of normal facilities and services within the society and It is to protect from evil. And so I don't know how it is there in your country, but in our country Our government is now opening the borders so that invaders come in who are infected And this is a violation of the obligation of the government and so, uh at this point You know the self-defense issue becomes a reality. How far do we go?

When do we go? What do we do in order to? Defend ourselves against what the government is doing as it breaks its own laws What do we do?

This is a question that needs to be discussed Well They even deny basic rights like the freedom of assembly here in in germany For example in berlin Two weeks ago the the big lgbtq parade the the christopher street day They could march with tens of thousands of people there and at the same place one week later a big demonstration Of uh of uh, anti-covid People They were denied the right to march. So we had the same place. We had the same incidents The same numbers basically with uh with the covid spread. Um in in that city Everything the same but different agenda and so they were denied to march At this place little people just gathered there. That was great. They gathered there and they marched.

Anyway, that was great. Yeah Well in here in america recently, there was a big motorcycle rally and people gathered I forgot what what town it was. They do it yearly and the leftist media called it a vac a covid spreader But yet at the same time when they have concerts Of leftists music concerts and people gather that's okay.

Yeah, the hypocrisy the thing about hypocrites are They hypocrisy is another form of lying And if the leaders are hypocrites, it means you can no longer trust what they say and do Because they don't have a standard of righteousness And they need to be removed from office This is why it's important to vote but I don't know how it is in your country But a lot of people have suspicion about the reliability of the voting system here now So I don't know how it is there, but that's how it is here Yeah, i'm not sure about that, um, but um, yeah basically I don't trust anyone Here in that country because yeah, so so many things are going wrong here all over the place Yep, and it's heating up heating up In the last, uh, 15 16 months. Yeah, that's right. It is since the whole covid thing came out That's right. Yeah. Okay. So, um, thanks for for today and maybe I will call uh back another time All right, i'll lead her say so have a nice day You too All right All right. All right, cool. Uh, let's see if we have any questions from the audience I hope it doesn't just okay. All right. All right, cool.

Uh, let's get to mike from iowa mike. Welcome. You're on the air Hello, sir Hey, I love your I absolutely love your show and today I'm going to come I'm, not looking for kudos here, but a monthly supporter. I love what you do Oh, thanks. And uh, you're one of the boldest followers of christ that I I just really appreciate what you do So on to the on to my question I have a friend who i've had a lot of respect for for a long time and um, I think part of it is maybe just denial but um He had a son who is a practicing homosexual, but he said well Mike, that's no different than the fact that you've been Married divorced married divorced now you're married had my 20th anniversary.

Yesterday. I'm so excited And but it it's I don't know how you compare those and besides that I was devastated by those other two divorces Well, it's not the same thing. I don't know. I don't I don't have it You see homosexuality is not the same thing as a divorce as a heterosexual divorce.

It's just not the same thing So he's made a false comparison, but go ahead well I'm Really? You know what's a positive of this if there is any positive about all this covid stuff, by the way By the way, I had a CAT scan today and I think I have what they call progress progressive pulmonary fibrosis because of covid 19 really my Lung copy. Yeah. Yeah, and i'm you know, I don't dwell on it. But you know, hopefully it's something that will kind of sort of Get a little better on its own, but it may not look look into hi it high intensity Intermittent training where you get your heart rate breathing rate up high and then you see your doctor can permit that of course And then you know, look it up hi it it's been known to really help in breathing and um cardiovascular So Anyway, just a thought well well, one thing that really encouraged me with this doctor is You know, he he did say I said is it okay to you know, continue to to be active and everything?

He said absolutely. That's the most important thing you can do. Absolutely Yeah, but anywho and then with all of this covid stuff I get to watch this I can't handle it anymore, man. I can't do it Yeah, it's it's it's bad and when the good uh, when the good do nothing the wicked prosper and um We need to resist what is going on Now I believe that more people in the public eye like myself people on tv other people in radio Need to start saying we need to resist i'm not talking about violence. I'm talking about voting right and um Getting people out of office. I think we should be doing is mailing letters, uh to uh political offices Mailing letters, you know with uh, a pebble or something in it. Just make a little bit more to the point, you know, uh, I don't you know just You know just we need to do something and I believe in in assembling outside their offices and protesting And we need to do this kind of stuff.

Yeah, I just I i've tried to kind of get away from We got a little way to break. Hold on man. Hold on.

We got a break. Okay Hey, we'll be right back folks after these messages. We'll open line eight seven seven Two zero seven two two, seven six. We'll be right back It's matt slick live taking your calls at eight seven seven two zero seven two two seven six here's matt slick All right, everyone welcome back to the show at the bottom of the hour.

Let's get back to mike from iowa mike You're back on here Yeah, yeah, um Like I said, sometimes I hate to post anything on facebook because you you get You either get it taken down, which I haven't yet or you know, you know what happens But I just posted to the silent majority but the silent majority can't remain silent, right? That's right. We can't We have to stand up we have to stand up It's time but I thought you were I thought you were I thought you were a christian, aren't you? I thought you were I thought you were a christian. Aren't you supposed to be loving and kind and meek and mild and yeah all accepting and Jesus overturned the temple tables made whip of cords and drove the people out and he called people whitewashed sepulchers You father the devil Jesus did not tell the centurion to uh Or nor did paul tell them to stop being in the military He told peter to put his sword away not get rid of it when he was defending jesus in the garden And that was because jesus didn't go to the cross. Jesus says in luke 22 36. He says, uh, sell your cloak and buy a sword And uh out of the 12 two of them had swords. He said well, that's enough So the idea of self-defense certainly seems to be there and the idea of of strict Christian pacifism is not the case.

It's not biblical. We have the right of self-defense, but not the obligation We have the right to defend ourselves. Someone comes in my home. You can rest assured. I will defend my home and my my family I will do it down to the last breath of my life if I need to And we as christians need to stand up for righteousness and instead of stop uh listening to kenneth copeland and kenneth hagan and uh, joel osteen and joist meyer and others who preach, uh, Mambi pambi, uh crud theology need to start having people in the pulpits are preaching about the necessity and the cost of Discipleship jesus says follow me and that means jesus is lord over every area of life It doesn't mean just on sundays and in your private home It means every area of life and if christians all over the united states started behaving like that Then the country would change very quickly because could you imagine if all the christians started saying at work? No, I won't go to your homeless pro-homosexual pro-lgbtq Indoctrination seminar, you know learn how to be more sensitive. I'm not going to do that and they get fired And if everybody's getting fired all over the place, I know there's taken risks.

Trust me folks. I've done it I've taken risks that have cost me greatly but uh Sometimes you just got to do what you got to do because sometimes it's standing up for righteousness is what you got to do Instead of standing up for your job Do what you're obligated to do don't do just the minimal and too many christians do the minimal in order to get by But they don't realize jesus has gone into the world and make disciples of all nations He didn't say go to church on sunday sit down and be fed So, um, you know, we're supposed to be out there and if christians had been doing what they're doing We wouldn't be in this condition That wasn't very kind of you to say that no, it's not but it's true I told people before when I preached I said look at the exits feel free to leave while i'm preaching because the message I'm going to be preaching isn't going to be an easy one. I've done it a few times Not every time I would sure love to find out where are you still you have sermons on your on your karm site?

No, I will have sermon outlines that i've done over the years. I used to be a pastor But okay, um when I was guest preaching a great deal in southern california Uh, there were times when I I literally remember one very I literally remember one very very very strong instance where I was going to a preaching at a church regularly helping out and um found out that uh discovered Many people that were using the lord's name in vain They were just joining in with the world the christians were, you know Oh my and then they'd say the lord's name in vain or whatever it is And um, so I had everybody at the beginning of the sermon. I think I had everybody stand up And they didn't know but they've never done this before I said to look around you they all did I said see the exits Yes, okay. Now you can sit down Feel free to leave during this sermon. I will not be offended And I said let's go And I gave them the riot act about uh using the lord's name in vain I said there are people here. I have met several times using the lord's name in vain Are you prepared for this right now, and I called on the carpet.

I thought they're never going to have me back and uh They afterwards many of them came up and said thank you For saying it like it is needed to hear it I think people christians want to hear truth. They want to hear confidence and boldness for the preacher Not manby pamby milk toast diberinian theology Okay So so if I say holy smoke, is that okay? Uh, the name of the lord is god lord jesus yahweh things like that Holiness is a quality of god. And so it's too close in my opinion to to use uh with with anything I won't even say holy cow or you know things like that.

I don't think it's appropriate I won't use the lord's name in vain and uh, I might say, you know dang or heck or things like that But that's that's it. Oh Oh interesting. I get that. I understand exactly what you're saying. Yeah, okay Well, thank you so much. I really appreciate all you got and your audio guy is fantastic. Oh, he's great.

Keith is awesome And i'm really really trying to make yeah, his name's keith He's really great guy and I have to say that because he can cut me off anytime But he is a good guy. All right. God bless you sir.

Okay. Thank you. All right Thankfully keith is a great guy Um, all right. Let's get on the air with uh, leon from north carolina leon. Welcome. You're on the air, buddy Hey, how are you doing?

Matt doing? All right. Hang on in there. What do you got? Good great question.

I'm a long time less than a first time caller. Okay. Um, I heard a comment about the separation of church and state Um, not being biblical and i'm not disputing yet. I'm just curious as to the origin of that concept The concept I think was in the 60s When the tax exempt status thing was instituted by the government And uh the churches then could have less taxes applied to them And in the process, they were not allowed to promote any political candidates Hence, uh, that was within the church the separation of church and state was uh, the phrase was used by I believe ben ben franklin in a letter and um I forgot the context But that's where it was. It's not in the constitution. It's not in the bill of rights. It's not in the declaration of independence And so the idea of the separation of church and state is wrong. I remember years ago Uh here in boise, uh, you know, i've been asked bush idaho.

I've been asked several times to do uh, go up in the Uh with other pastors to do public prayers, you know once a year haven't done it for past couple three But I did it for several years in a row. But anyway After one of the prayer meetings that we had where everybody was gathered to pray I went across the street to meet some protesters and they were atheists And uh, they said separation of church and state and I said, do you know what that means? Do you know what that means and this woman looked at me had never really thought about it and then she goes well But you know you you the you the religion can't influence the state And I said is it okay for the state to influence the religion and tell the religion what to do and can't do And I could see the shock in her eyes when she realized That it worked both ways, but she's only affirming one and that she was being hypocritical. I could see it And I said so what are you going to say about that? And she didn't have anything to say I said it's okay for the state to impose its rights and restrictions on religion But when it comes to the religious people saying no we want to vote for christian candidates.

That's not okay So why the hypocrisy why the double standard? And uh, she just walked away So we need as christians to stand for righteousness. This is why I do what I do for a living Largely the reason I do apologetics is to defend my lord and my savior jesus christ It's why i've gone to seminary. It's why i've i've Had death threats. It's why i've been swatted. It's why i've been followed in cars. It's why i've had Um legal threats occur i've why i've had bunts in the nights It's why i've had all kinds of things happen to me over the years. I've been chased and persecuted I've almost been physically beat up Because I want to stand for my lord my savior jesus christ and the cults like mormonism and jova's witnesses and the false religions like eastern orthodox and and um roman catholicism they come against the true gospel of jesus christ and then in the christian church too many people are sitting on their Pews afraid to do anything afraid to risk anything They want to say they serve jesus, but they don't they serve him in their hearts quietly But they don't serve him obviously he's said to To show each other your faith by your actions james 2 18 says go out make disciples of all nations This is what christians are called to do and jesus says pick up your day your cross daily and follow after me Not on sunday mornings every day.

Why is it? We're not doing this the pulpits need to be preaching from the strength of god's word. Not the weakness. No hammock theology No, diborinianism anymore This time for the the pulp the people in the pulpit to wake up and start preaching the strength and to clear the church out And start stop preaching to get people in the church You start preaching to equip those who are already in the church for the work of ministries. Ephesians 4 11 12 13 says That's what the pastor is supposed to do equip them for the work of ministry not make them feel good in a hostile world You know go out there get your nose bloodied do something live for jesus That's what I say Amen that's a good uh, that's a good start. I like that.

Um, You know just this work of evangelism is not an easy task never has that And you have disparity I for instance have a brother who uh, You know, there's there's no no animosity no hostility, but he uh, oh man, we got a break. Hey leon I'm, sorry to interrupt you. Can you hold on please? Look back after the map after the message after the break. Sorry about that. We got lines filled up folks Oh, hey, we'll be right back.

Please. Stay tuned It's matt slick live taking your calls at eight seven seven two zero seven two two seven six here's matt slick All right, welcome back to the show leon. You're back on the air Hey, yeah. Thanks for uh, taking the call.

Keep me here. Uh, quick, uh comment on the church separation between church and state Comment I was doing some reading on that talk about the jefferson Uh statement that was made it weren't the exact words, but you know similarity being right, uh, you know, uh, whenever we Whenever we Second it right. I don't want to misquote Okay, it's okay just paraphrase it's all right Yep, yep. Yep. So while these literal words of wall separation between church and state don't appear in the constitution the concept Of church and state separation certainly does and there were cases like I don't know You know, emerson versus emerson versus board of education back in 47.

It was used. Yeah Yeah, we don't want we don't want religious people Yeah, we don't want churches running the government You know, yeah, but christians need to be in in uh involved in it. That's what i'm saying Yeah, yeah, and and that preachers need to be preaching politics Yeah, absolutely when necessary. Yeah So, yeah preaching preaching about politics is a contrary to the gospel I guess my main emphasis as a believer of the christian and my focus is salvation for the unsafe I think that's the main that person needs a high price priority for a christian believer And where we can get on a slippery slope sometimes is when we try to get a little too self-righteous about I don't know in a political sense, right and i'm not saying we should not get involved because I am actually involved In my community and whenever I see things that need to be addressed I get involved with organizations that are very well We need to be involved We need to have a national organization of resistance somehow somewhere some place where we organize and do it peacefully and properly And make their voice be known We need to because i'll tell you and also I would think we'll lose our rights.

Go ahead, man No, I can see we're gonna lose our rights. It's happening already Yes I and I and i'll say this and i'll be done, uh, because I don't want you know The other call is to get an opportunity to comment whatever they have on their mind But something strong in my heart and as I was speaking with uh, uh, our brother last night about You know beliefs and you know, he says well Are you the only way you're going to get to heaven is through jesus, you know, doesn't that make you superior? Uh, you know and i'm saying, you know, i'm not going to jesus Right exactly I said I said i'm supporting my savior and you have an option to believe it or not to believe it Right, but I guess my point being is The focus is let's let's let's understand that spiritual element Where we don't try to play god You know because he he's confounded before and he'll compound again and coming in and saying okay Well, you thought you were right. This is how i'm going to do it Right. So always I always like to leave room for the whole tell you what I tell you what tell you what? We do have callers waiting, but you're right We need to trust god and the the gospel is is the most important thing We've got to preach to people but we've also got to be involved in the world. Amen to that right buddy All right Pray before you pray before you stay.

That's right. Everyone have a blessed day. You too, man. God bless All right.

Let's get over to little me from california. Hey, how you doing, buddy? Good how are you doing? Fine. All right.

Come on. I know who you are. You got questions Yeah, um, I have a question about um, Basically the way god judges people because I know like in romans 9 Romans 9 11 and 13, you know, he hates Um istau without having done neither good or bad, but then I also know that god judges you based off of your heart So what what what i'm kind of curious? You got to show me scripture where it says he bases, uh judges you based on your heart Because I don't know many scripture that says that We have passed out of condemnation. Romans 8 1 says Out of condemnation because of our faith in what jesus has done our trust in him So there's no condemnation for those who are in christ. Jesus in christ. Jesus is a term of federal headship But there will be a judgment upon the christians for his works good and bad And reward will be granted or removed in uh heaven and that will be our status. It looks like forever uh with various rewards and loss of rewards in heaven but Oh, excuse me.

Could he yawn? Oh boy Sorry about that so, uh, anyway, um That's what it means about the works. Okay, so go ahead.

What's your next question or part of that? So so for the reprobate are they just Condemned from like From the beginning, I guess without having done like having done good or bad. They're just already nobody's done. Good judge Nobody's done.

Good. The only person who's ever done good Is jesus, that's it. Everybody is by nature child of wrath ephesians 2 3 And has had the we have fallen and sinned in adam. Saul fall romans 5 19 So nobody is good. No one seeks for god all have gone astray romans 3 10 11 and 12 so People say they want fairness want god to be fair. It's not fair if he picks one picks another Well, first of all, who are you?

To answer back to god and say what he can and can't do as far as what is fair And if you want fairness, I say to people Then you're going to be going to hell Because it's not fair for jesus to bear our sins in his body and the cross Yes, and so people don't understand what they say a lot of times. They'll understand that they are insulting god inadvertently Okay You there yeah that makes sense, okay All right, so wait because i'm still very confused on on how Actually, i'll just ask my question later because I don't want to hold the other hold the other people back. That's all right Okay, we can meet online.

I know we do so we can ask there too in um in discord All right. Oh, yeah. Okay. Okay.

See ya. God bless All right, then. All right. God bless. All right.

Let's get to chuck from north carolina chuck. Welcome. You're on the air Hey, man, um I was thinking about it on I had a question about is there anything anywhere in the bible where we can be tricked? Uh, I don't know, uh, the issue of tricking. Uh, it's I think the idea is everyone who just takes it The implication is they're willingly knowingly receiving it And oh, okay, what they're doing is identifying with the antichrist at that point.

I've actually wondered about that Well, what if you know, you're you're in a coma and someone comes in and gives you the mark and you don't even know it And you wake up. Yeah, uh, you know, I mean you're going to hell and I wouldn't say so, you know, uh, if they accept that mark That's the issue Yeah Right, okay Okay, I appreciate it really okay Appreciate it, brother. All right, man. All right. I love you, man.

I love you. I'm glad All right. Let's get to carrie from boise. Idaho. Carrie.

Welcome. You're on the air Hi, not. Um, how are you doing? Fine Boise good I have a question about the vaccine Um, I know some people don't want to take it because they don't want it forced on them um, other people don't want to take it because maybe they have a medical condition that would Um, there would be an interference of some sort But besides those two reasons, why do people not want to take it often in church? community It's experimental. It's not been approved by the Drug administration yet. It's still under emergency approval Emergency approval it all actually alters dna And it's a permanent alteration of your dna and there are plenty of cases of accounts of um Of women who've been pregnant who've had problems in pregnancy right after taking the covid And there are accounts of people dying of when they take it too I see. Okay, and if it's so easy, here's a question if it's good for you and all that Why is it that so many doctors and nurses don't want it?

Yeah, I guess I just didn't realize they they That that was happening. Oh, yeah Yeah, there's a lot of information about it, uh reducing fertility Uh, there's there's a certain heart condition now that's related to taking uh the vaccine Plus some of them from what I understood have used um um baby aborted baby material In it and they're developing And so, you know, there's a religious exemption. I don't want I don't even do with that I don't want to have my life be benefited by people killing the unborn I see Okay. Thank you for explaining that. All right Okay. Well, thank you All right.

You guys have a great day. Bye. Bye. All right. Bye All right. Let's get to jared from utah. Jared.

Welcome. You're on the air buddy Hey, matt, how are you? I'm doing all right.

God, he's yawns all of a sudden but uh, i'm okay. What do you got man? So a couple of questions for you i'll make them quick. Um, so i'm from utah I have uh, I live amongst a lot of uh, Lds mormon people here, which is fine. I don't have an issue with I have several friends that are believers of the mormon church so my first question is One of my friends and I get to debate, uh, sometimes about repentance uh mormons tend to believe that Deathbed repentance as they call it is not acceptable by god So for example if you were On your deathbed about to die and you tried to repent for your sins that god would not forgive you for those sins So I wanted to hear your opinion on that Uh mormon when a mormon asks you that um Ask him, uh, why do they say that?

What's the reason? So they're making a statement that that trusting in jesus for the forgiveness of your sins and asking jesus to forgive you is not enough Which means that they have to do something So they're denying the idea of justification by faith Romans 5 1 having therefore been justified by faith and romans 4 and 5 To, uh, to the one who does not work but believes in him who justifies him godly his faith Is credited as righteousness? So that doesn't exist in mormonism because in second e5 25 23 in the book of mormon You're saved by grace to faith after all you can do So there's a works righteousness system and that's because they have a false god And that's why they have a false gospel So they're assuming that They can do enough stuff to be saved, you know ron at 10 32 if you deny yourself of all in godliness Then is god's grace sufficient for you but In dnc 827 this for the mormons were listening if you repent and then you commit the same sin later All the former sins come back upon you. So mormonism teaches a false gospel. You can't be saved from your sins In it by you know, god's not another planet kind of a thing, but that's a whole nother topic So if they say, you know, you can't be saved by trusting in christ and say well then can you give me a list of? The things you've got to do and then they'll give you a list and then you start witnessing to them Say oh are you doing those things?

Well, i'm trying. Oh, so you're not doing it and then you can go to Herbert w kimball's book the miracle of forgiveness. I forgot which page number but it actually says in there trying is not good enough You have to do it So mormonism is not good enough You have to do it They don't even know their own theology. Yes, i'm educating sure So i've actually asked the question before to several mormons on why they believe in Uh deathbed repentance is not being accepted by christ Uh, the answer that you usually get is because you're repenting out of fear And not out of faith.

So that's kind of the answer that i've always gotten Well, you say faith and fear, you know when um, oh You call that tomorrow and i'll give you something that jesus said that supports The idea that even fear is a good enough reason Okay, because it's there in scripture and i'll show it to you tomorrow if you call. Okay. All right, buddy. Okay. Sounds great. All right Okay. Hey folks. We're out of time. May the lord bless you remember I got a debate in one hour And if you're interested in checking it out just go to the karm facebook page And you'll see god bless everybody another program powered by the truth network
