Speaker A
Okay, uh, the most famous passage, 2 Timothy chapter 2. Usually when I start out in dispensationalism, y'all pretty much know that verse now. Today's teaching is different from the way I usually teach dispensationalism. It will be similar; you'll see a pattern with my other teachings, but I'll probably do a three-part series. Now, I'm not going to do them back to back, maybe so here and there I might do it, but I think if everyone knows these three key steps, both beginning Christians and advanced Christians will learn so much from this.
Speaker A
teachings but I'll probably do a three-part series now I'm not going to do them back to back maybe so here and there I might do it but I think if everyone knows these three key steps both beginning Christians and
Speaker A
Okay, uh, for those of you who do not know dispensationalism, this is a good outline that'll help you a lot. Now, you're not going to learn every doctrine from dispensationalism, so some of it you're just going to have to take my word for it, and it might be a little bit over your head, but at least you'll get an outline. Once you have this outline, then when you study the doctrines yourself, it's going to click and make sense. When you read the Bible verses, it's going to click and make sense.
Speaker A
just going to have to take my word for it and it might be a little a little bit over your head but at least you'll get an outline once you have this outline then when you study the doctrines
Speaker A
Okay, so that'll be very, very helpful. So I want you to understand this: 2 Timothy chapter 2, verse 15, the Bible says, "Study to show thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth." So the Bible demands that if you want to find truth from God's word, you need to rightly divide it. In other words, every verse in that Bible does not apply to you, so you have to be very careful of that. Sometimes it might be talking about a different person, group of people, or time period.
Speaker A
study to show thyself approved unto God oh workmen that need needeth not to be ashamed rightly dividing the word of Truth so the Bible demands that if you want to find truth from God's word you need to rightly divide it in other words
Speaker A
For example, are you going to claim Isaiah 14 to yourself when the Bible says, "How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! Art thou cut down to the ground, which did weaken the nations? For thou hast said in thine heart, 'I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High.'" That doesn't apply to you. Obviously, that was applying to Lucifer. That verse didn't apply to your time period today in the church age. That applied to before Lucifer's fall. See that? So that's just a common sense thing.
Speaker A
claim Isaiah 14 to yourself when the Bible says how art thou fallen from Heaven oh Lucifer son of the morning art thou cut down to the ground which dis weaken the Nations for thou has said in thine heart I will Ascend above the
Speaker A
Now, the problem is though, for people who start out in dispensationalism, is that how do I divide it because it's all over the place? Now, what I would recommend is if you go to my dispensationalism playlist, especially the long version which is called "Amazing Dispensational Truth from Genesis to Revelation," that will be the most helpful. Now, I did a conference in the Philippines. That's probably the best job that they did, so I think they titled it "The Greatest Story Ever Told," and that was a lot better than my other one. It should get more views than my other video, in my opinion, so I kind of feel bad about it, but they did a very good job. It's almost like a movie style when they did it, so I would recommend that.
Speaker A
that so that's just a common sense thing now the problem is though for people who start out in dispensationalism is that how do I divide it because it's all over the place now if what I would recommend is
Speaker A
But anyways, because I already taught that, I'm not going to be doing it in this teaching because those of you who've been with me throughout the years already know all of that. So I want to teach something that's new to you, even though it's old information that you already know. Okay, so it'll be a new delivery, new style. Those of you who are new to dispensationalism, I want to teach it where you understand and grow, albeit there will be some things there that are over your head.
Speaker A
think they titled it The Greatest Story Ever Told and that was a lot better than my other one it should get more views in my other video in my opinion so I kind of feel bad about it but they did a very
Speaker A
Okay, so I'm kind of used to that as a pastor when I preach and teach. I have to think about my demographic and think about beginners and advanced, which is always difficult, but the Lord blessed it. So that's been pretty much my whole life.
Speaker A
already know all of that so I want to teach something that's new to you even though it's old information that you already know okay so it'll be a new delivery new style those of you who are new to
Speaker A
Now, let's start it out this way. Okay, so what do we know so far? What do we know so far? And if you need to write down notes, please do that. That way it'll help you in the future, especially if you're a beginner. What do we know so far? 2 Timothy 2:15 says to find truth in God's word, you have to rightly divide. So there is no doubt you have to rightly divide.
Speaker A
demographic and think about beginners and advanced which is always difficult but the Lord blessed it so that's been pretty much my whole life now let's start it out this way okay so what we do know so far what do we know so far and
Speaker A
Verses number two: what do we know so far? Is that it's pretty much common sense not all verses apply to you and to your time period, right? Okay, we agree so far.
Speaker A
rightly divide so there is no doubt you have to rightly divide verses number two what we do know so far is that it's pretty much common sense not all verses apply to you and to your time period right okay we agree so
Speaker A
Now, number three: everyone, even Catholics, okay, and probably Muslims, okay, but not really, but in a little level, they all know there's a difference between the Old Testament and New Testament. Is that correct?
Speaker A
you don't even have to be a say believer when we say Old Testament what group of people are we mostly thinking about that's common sense right let me ask you this question when I say New Testament what group of people
Speaker A
Now, let's use common sense here. You don't even have to be a saved believer. When we say Old Testament, what group of people are we mostly thinking about? That's common sense, right?
Speaker A
a common sense here of a distinction of Old Testament New Testament see that you don't really have to be a safe person to know that you just have to have a conscience and then you you already know that unconsciously God instilled that
Speaker A
Let me ask you this question: when I say New Testament, what group of people naturally comes into our mind? Christians.
Speaker A
here obviously the Bible when you get deeper into Doctrine it becomes deeper correct so we got the two easy divisions Old Testament New Testament Jews and Christians that's listen up now this is key so if you're new to this hopefully
Speaker A
Now, notice already if we're going to go Sigmund Freud on you in your unconscious minds, whether you're conscious about it or not, everyone knows from the conscience that God instilled inside their minds, there's a common sense here of a distinction of Old Testament, New Testament. See that? You don't really have to be a saved person to know that. You just have to have a conscience, and then you already know that unconsciously God instilled that within you.
Speaker A
crucial for those of you who are Advanced you don't understand this this is how you're going to find dispensationalism historically well how am I going to prove dispensationalism historically they never said the word dispensation easy see how they distinguish church and
Speaker A
We already know from the conscience instilled within us, Christian is automatically connected by instinct, by instinct to New Testament, Old Testament by instinct, by instinct to Jews.
Speaker A
false Doctrine how is it born when they're not dispensational correct and remember you know what dispensational ISM means it means rightly dividing verses okay not applying every verse to yourself that's what dispensationalism means a lot of false Doctrine is because
Speaker A
Okay, now that we understand that there is a distinction here, obviously the Bible, when you get deeper into doctrine, it becomes deeper, correct?
Speaker A
trace back their history and they pull up Church father quotes and early Christian quotes that do not distinguish the church and Israel that's how they're going to prove their position historically but that's very dishonest if you trace back historically you will
Speaker A
So we got the two easy divisions: Old Testament, New Testament; Jews and Christians. That's, listen up now, this is key. So if you're new to this, hopefully you're writing it down. That's the key why we were able to find more doctrines in the Bible that did not apply to us, that apply to different groups of people.
Speaker A
distinguish the church in Israel then what are they going to do with old testament New Testament aren't they divided aren't the verses divided so why are they applying look at this why are they applying Old Testament verses to the New Testament or new testament to
Speaker A
The key is when you distinguish the church and Israel. That is crucial.
Speaker A
that way it's this but unconsciously they already divided these but they don't realize it's connected to these so think about it what did they do unconsciously a lot of them don't realize this they take this Division and have it replaced by this
Speaker A
Why is that crucial? For those of you who are advanced, you don't understand this, this is how you're going to find dispensationalism historically.
Speaker A
heretical Doctrine you have to avoid some of them call it supersessionism other people have a different term for it other people uh call it replacement theology what does that mean the church replaces Israel so you don't this is basic enough
Speaker A
Well, how am I going to prove dispensationalism historically? They never said the word dispensation, easy.
Speaker A
them to Christians when they do that they're doing replacement theology that's the majority of Christian churches doing that so for advanced Christians you know about a millennialism postmillennialism uh post-tribulation uh Rapture which is against pre-tribulation Rapture Doctrine all that stuff comes
Speaker A
See how they distinguish church and Israel? And when you go back to first-century church fathers and early Christians, saw that.
Speaker A
what new terminology you hear if we Bible Believers don't agree with that Doctrine now you know why because those are doctrines for Jews that they forcibly applied to Christian Church do we understand so far now notice this is a huge eye opener huge
Speaker A
A lot of people don't realize that there were church fathers and early Christians that realized that. A lot of people don't know this false doctrine.
Speaker A
the distinguish uh the distinction of church and Israel he believes that much but when you go more into the doctrines he doesn't want to go there he doesn't want to go there even though it's very apparent they are applying to Jews not
Speaker A
How is it born when they're not dispensational, correct?
Speaker A
after the death of a testator Jesus Christ the New Testament is of effect so the death of Jesus Christ is what changed everything you have to understand it's what changed everything that's why our doctrines are different from the Jews do we understand so far
Speaker A
And remember, you know what dispensationalism means? It means rightly dividing verses, okay? Not applying every verse to yourself. That's what dispensationalism means.
Speaker A
and then the advanced people when you go back to the basics you advance more see okay now when you study the Bible there's no doubt the every denomination even if you don't believe in dispensationalism will agree that there
Speaker A
A lot of false doctrine is because they're not dispensational.
Speaker A
think to what they teach uh after uh even uh at the cre beginning of the creation of man with Adam all the way to the end but I'm not sure if that's true or not but the point is is that a lot of
Speaker A
Okay, go back to the beginnings then. Then if they're not dispensational, did they distinguish the church from Israel?
Speaker A
God has been ruling ever since the beginning of creation to the end can we all agree with that yeah God has always been ruling if he's ruling he obviously has a domain to rule in other words a kingdom to rule so
Speaker A
You'll notice a lot of theologians, advanced theologians, how they're going to prove their doctrine to be true is because when they trace back their history and they pull up church father quotes and early Christian quotes that do not distinguish the church and Israel.
Speaker A
you know Adam fell correct when Adam fell that whole physical Kingdom fell apart into sin so God drowned it with Noah's flood and then God told Noah to take charge of the world again God is obviously supreme ruler
Speaker A
That's how they're going to prove their position historically, but that's very dishonest.
Speaker A
of Babel the whole world became corrupt the whole physical Kingdom became corrupt so God wanted to separate his physical Kingdom from those physical kingdoms of the devil so he limited it to Abraham that's why it makes sense why God
Speaker A
If you trace back historically, you will find a huge, a good amount of early Christians and church fathers who distinguished Israel and the church.
Speaker A
nation of Israel today and I know their corruption they got wrong policies too they got even blood on their hands but we're more defensive of them because Satan's kingdoms are going against God's physical Kingdom and by the way God's
Speaker A
So it's just what? It's just picking and choosing historical documentation. See that? So they're being dishonest.
Speaker A
Jacob the nation of Israel the nation of Israel really wanted to have a king a human King not God as their King do you remember that see they want to be like all the other nations so it started to shrink
Speaker A
So think about it: if you don't distinguish the church and Israel, then what are they going to do with Old Testament, New Testament? Aren't they divided? Aren't the verses divided?
Speaker A
northern southern Kingdom then Babylon it just ruined it okay okay it took it all away so now we know that but in the Major Prophets from Isaiah Jeremiah Ezekiel Daniel what did they say about the physical Kingdom of Israel what are
Speaker A
So why are they applying—look at this—why are they applying Old Testament verses to the New Testament or New Testament to Old Testament?
Speaker A
understand here okay let's scroll down all the way here so this is Jesus Christ when he died on the cross okay but now let's go by time period so we don't get lost here so what happened here so here is
Speaker A
It's because they're—look, it's more so of this. It's more so—I'm going to do red, yeah, that way it's more clear.
Speaker A
right but even though Persia tried to restore their Nation their nation was undergoing they are no longer their own kingdom they're under the Gentile kingdoms till uh ever since when didn't God get his physical Kingdom back listen never since
Speaker A
All right, there we go.
Speaker A
Babylon so think about it then that means Jewish doctrines get this this is important so you have to be careful Jewish doctrines that makes sense why they don't apply today why don't they apply today because the Jewish doctrines the Jewish Kingdom
Speaker A
It's more so not Old Testament, New Testament. They're not thinking of it that way. It's this, but unconsciously they already divided these, but they don't realize it's connected to these.
Speaker A
the church no brainer for us and then you get over here the tribulation timeline the kingdom don't come up to here so that means Jewish Doctrine will continue in the future see that so notice this is New Testament correct
Speaker A
So think about it: what did they do unconsciously? A lot of them don't realize this. They take this division and have it replaced by this group of people.
Speaker A
what the Old Kingdom of the Jews but when you uh talk about the New Covenant it's a new kingdom for the Jews why their new kingdom is obviously different from their Old Kingdom do you know that's very important if you didn't write down that
Speaker A
Why? Because every verse in the Bible appli—
Speaker A
Jews they they apply that New Covenant to us Christians in Hebrews 8 no Hebrews 8 Old Covenant New Covenant is for Jews it's their Kingdom it's very easy when you read Hebrews 8 there is no doubt it's a national context here a national
Speaker A
Kingdom that's not Christian salvation this is very National a group of people it's not individual very obvious Hebrews 9 is very obvious it's about salvation an individual and it plainly says testament old testament New Testament so the New Testament also
Speaker A
applies so we get this it is predominantly church we get that because of the Cross of Christ but the Jews they have an Everlasting Covenant when you read Jeremiah up to Daniel they keep talking about that God's covenant cannot
Speaker A
be broken with Israel that God's covenant will continue with the Jews he'll restore them it's all over they're do you do you know those verses are more than Christian salvation but do you know how many churches get that Doctrine
Speaker A
wrong you know what they do with all those verses they have the church replace that so think about it if you replace the church with Israel what happens to the kingdoms here they replace the kingdom for Jews with the
Speaker A
church hence you hear so many churches talking about building a kingdom kingdom building the Catholic Church wants to have Jerusalem for themselves because they believe from their Doctrine they're building God's Kingdom and who are the evil people the
Speaker A
Jews do you know why they're anti-semite now now even Christian churches are doing that and teaching replacement theology they're saying God cast off the Jews God's no longer using the Jews they're only partially right God's not using the
Speaker A
Jews temp oh oh come on why did you do that all right okay there we go they're partially right God's not using the Jews temporarily he's going to go back to them though the false churches teach the church marches on ever since see there's
Speaker A
no division here you know what they assume the church is they assume the church is everything here that's what happens when you replace Israel with the church you have to be very cautious with this Kingdom building gospel that's why
Speaker A
Christians are very cautious concerning politics too why is that because when Christians get into politics they're thinking about that they have to bring God's kingdom here that's what they're thinking they think that once they had president Trump then we get a Hope in America there's a
Speaker A
great Christian Revival and we Stamp Out apostasy and God will eventually come down and set up his kingdom because we do a pretty good job haha ha good luck all right you heard what Dr Grady talked about he made
Speaker A
it more Bleak than me he he made it more Bleak that basically don't get any hopes over here that's how bad it's going to be that you're not going to get seats filled so remember this is that this mentality of the
Speaker A
teaching with all their different doctrines from false churches pay attention if they're talking about building some Kingdom on Earth something physical that's why they push the offerings you notice that because they're trying to build up their Kingdom more with the building with their church
Speaker A
building their Ministry spreading throughout all the world now we have to go back to then do we not believe in offering or like having Church buildings or a Christians having their own kingdom actually we do believe in that but notice it's not a
Speaker A
physical Kingdom like the Jews so we call this Kingdom of Heaven the Jews whereas the Christians it's called kingdom of God now the evidence to prove the distinctions I want you to go to ma go to Matthew chapter
Speaker A
7 and Matthew chap 11 Matthew chapter 7 and Matthew 11 now I wish I can show you a lot more verses but I have to do this uh one at a time I have to go through everything today so that's why I'm not giving you
Speaker A
Bible verses if I'm giving you books and chapters please write that down okay so don't assume that you don't need them you'll need them all right I just don't have time to go through them okay all right so
Speaker A
Matthew 11 and verse 12 so let's assume that there is no distinction of the kingdom when we talk about God's kingdom it applies to us from all verses in the Bible let's assume that way these two verses will definitely prove you cannot
Speaker A
think that way there's a distinction Matthew 11:12 and from the days of John the Baptist until now the Kingdom of Heaven suffereth what violence and the violent take it by force notice here the Kingdom of Heaven is not talking about
Speaker A
heaven see that that's what all Christians make the mistake of they all make the mistake that Kingdom of Heaven is talking about heaven and so it applies to us on the earth when we build it no it's it is talking about an
Speaker A
Earthly Kingdom how do we know that because it says the Kingdom of Heaven suffereth violence obviously there's no violence in heaven even Hollywood knows that they have a movie called Kingdom of Heaven but what what city or Nation were they
Speaker A
thinking about Jerusalem lost people know that it's from their Sigman Freud unconscious mindset they just they just don't consciously know that so Kingdom of Heaven is for Jews you see that then that makes a lot of sense anything that talks about now that
Speaker A
term doesn't pop out all the time so you have to look at the verses and read between the lines and see if God is ruling and if it's physical and if there's a Jew involved when you see that
Speaker A
that's going to help you a lot if you see other verses that talk about God ruling and it's spiritual and the church is involved that makes sense now could it be possible that some spiritual things uh let's talk about the
Speaker A
kingdom of God now okay go to the Matthew chapter 6 not 7 chapter 6 and then look at uh verse 31 now look at the physical things here take therefore take no thought saying what shall we eat physical or what shall we drink physical
Speaker A
or wherewith All Shall we be clothed physical for all these things do the what Gentile seek we're not like the Gentile Nations but Christians are trying to do that physical physical physical for God's kingdom verse 33 but seek ye first the what
Speaker A
oh so kingdom of God is different from physical things that means kingdom of God is spiritual kingdom of God and his what righteousness that's spiritual and all these things shall be added unto you write down Romans 14 as well Romans 14
Speaker A
is very plain it says the kingdom of God is Not meat and drink but righteousness peace and I think joy in the Holy Ghost very plain so what we do know indisputably from these three verses Kingdom of Heaven is
Speaker A
Earthly can we agree it's National can we agree no doubt kingdom of God is spiritual no doubt correct now kingdom of God is for Christians that's why I'm getting to do Christians have a kingdom yes we do but it's not you it's not oh
Speaker A
why do why does that keep happening stop drawing that line okay it is not our kingdom is not all this do you understand a physical it's divided here our own kingdom which is spiritual okay that makes sense now when we get
Speaker A
deeper into Doctrine let me add this too which will be important for you to right you will find verses that are like a physical Kingdom that can apply to church cuz you'll see that it's speaking to the church or at that time period you
Speaker A
will find verses about kingdom of God spiritual that he is speaking to Jews and uh it's on their time period so when we get deeper what's the explanation the simple explanation is this the easy answer is aren't there some physical
Speaker A
things that God gives to Christians but it's not prioritized physically the priority is spiritual see the Jews obviously don't they get some spiritual things of course but the priority is their Nation physical isn't that Common Sense see that there's no doubt the P
Speaker A
it's so obvious go back to basic of Basics what is the distinction with Old Testament new testament old testament New Testament you'll see clear distinctions about something that is National Israel is a nation physical group of people Jew by
Speaker A
physical bloodline ethnicity New Testament Church it's not a physical Nation it's a spiritual body or a spiritual Nation but it's more so called out out Assembly Church spiritual it is a uh spiritual bloodline not physical bloodline spiritual race not a physical race like
Speaker A
Jews spiritual race is Christian the church no matter what your physical nationality is now did this make a lot of sense now do you understand why the nation of Israel practice segregation and why today we do not practice segregation
Speaker A
see that of the church we have everyone in the church what does that clearly there's no doubt this is common sense even Christians who don't believe in dispensationalism admit when you look at verses about uh segregated marriages they'll all keep saying well that's a
Speaker A
different time period That's where Jews back then you don't culturally apply it to now you just admitted there's a distinction of Doctrine and a distinction of church doctrine and Jewish Doctrine but what happens when the church replaces Jewish Doctrine then
Speaker A
why don't you be honest then why don't you be honest and have segregated marriages that see that makes sense doesn't it so there is no doubt that there is a distinction going on here of Kingdom so think about
Speaker A
God's kingdom throughout the Bible and then you'll see why certain doctrines that are physical National they're more Jewish and then other Kingdom verses that talks about God ruling it's more spiritual it's more so of a body or a
Speaker A
called out Assembly Church and it's for Christians now did that make a lot of sense now let's uh go to here the green Parts okay out of these kingdoms okay then we can see all all these doctrines that are different okay this
Speaker A
is really helpful for you and a lot of you already know this but now with the Skeleton version it will make sense okay we don't practice the law of Moses obviously keeping the physical Sabbath day uh even the hygiene practices we
Speaker A
don't do everything like that okay a lot of it is good stuff don't get me wrong but uh we do know that's for the nation of Israel and you don't practice everything every anyways the law of Moses talks about not mixing
Speaker A
certain Fabrics together we certainly don't practice that the law of Moses talks about men that they got to grow out their hair and not uh cut off the uh you know cut it off but obviously we don't practice that uh you have to Stone
Speaker A
someone to death if they take God's name in vain everybody don't do that okay so notice everyone is a classet dispensationalists they know there are distinctions but you get Heretics like 7 the Adventists and even Messianic Jews uh who are trying to put law Moses
Speaker A
on Christians but that is for a physical nation of Israel our law is the law of the spirit not the law of Moses what's the evidence the evidence is Galatians 5 when you write down Galatians 5 you'll notice that Paul was condemning The
Speaker A
Works of the flesh which the Old Testament which is the Old Testament law the Jews followed but if you read the second half he talks about the law of the spirit what is the law of the spirit obviously that's your spiritual Walk
Speaker A
With Jesus Christ the fruit of the spirit is love joy peace and longsuffering the law of the spirit is contradicted by The Works of the flesh adultery fornication Etc Galatians 5 also says if you follow uh the the law
Speaker A
of the spirit you fulfill the whole law anyway so we're not trashing the law of Moses but we're picking things in the law of Moses that matches our spiritual walk see that that's why we don't go by the law
Speaker A
of Moses but that doesn't mean we trash it it's good for us in the spiritual sense not physical see that's why we don't observe Sabbath because that's physical it's a physical day we don't uh do the the we don't practice all the
Speaker A
sanitation practices or the other medical practices or Etc our medicine has advanced we knew other things in science so we don't practice everything right there why because these are physical regulations physical rules that are very different physical again
Speaker A
national uh we don't uh practice a lot of other things that the Jews do circumcision we we don't practice that okay how many of you are circumcised raise your hand and don't raise your your hand okay don't raise your hand why
Speaker A
don't you do that you don't do that because that's physical it's fleshly the circumcision for the nation of Israel but Paul he talks about spiritual circumcision right Colossians chapter 2 he says spiritual circumcision and that's why he was against physical
Speaker A
circumcision Galatians 3 he's against physical IAL circumcision why because we got spiritual circumcision now does this make a lot of sense now okay now but this also proves against Old Testament Judaism Judaism today why do we know Judaism is wrong
Speaker A
today it's wrong Doctrine today because they don't even practice it they're not practicing blood sacrifices of animals they're not practicing circumcision but that's important for their salvation that's important for them in their practice why aren't they doing it then
Speaker A
we do know see God is Not operating Judaism today that's another evidence do you now understand why this Doctrine dispensationalism is important it makes a lot of sense now it disproves every religion out there including Judaism okay now but at the same time it
Speaker A
validates the Judaism as well see we understand that okay here are other doctrines we see here signs and wonders Visions healing speaking in tongues notice that is under their Kingdom that is under the nation of Israel why is that it's pretty apparent
Speaker A
a sign is something you see to believe Exodus chapter 3- 4 if you look at Exodus 3-4 that's the first mention of sign and it wasn't to the Christian church it was to who Jews why because Moses said they
Speaker A
will not believe unless they see a sign see so it was for Jews that means it's not for Christians why the Bible says write down uh 2 Corinthians chapter 5 2 Corinthians 5 we walk by faith not by sight what is a
Speaker A
sign a sign is something you see see that but we don't go we don't believe in signs we believe in faith you can also write down Romans 10:17 Romans 10:17 Faith cometh by hearing hearing by the what word of God our faith goes by
Speaker A
what the Bible says not by what you experience the signs so now you see a lot of false church is called charismatics Pentecostals Holiness people getting involved in the tongu speaking the visions and then experience experience did you ever notice when you
Speaker A
try to show them what's wrong from the Bible with them they're ignoring the verses and they prioritize their experience more than the verses you show them why because they're in the wrong group of people they're prioritizing signs what they feel experience
Speaker A
physical they don't go by the Christian Faith by hearing of the word of God we walk by faith we don't go by sight now this makes sense this Doctrine is very important all right now let's keep going on all right that way I can
Speaker A
get you out soon water baptism uh we have to look at that so go to uh the book of 2 Corinthians Ians chapter 7 2 Corinthians 7 and 1 Peter chapter 3 go to 1 Peter chapter 3 and 2
Speaker A
Corinthians chapter 7 now the Jews practiced water baptism because to wash away their sins it's to wash away their sins that's why you get heretical churches like the Church of Christ the campbellite church uh it's a miracle but we were able to
Speaker A
buy this from Church of Christ for some of you who didn't know that actually that explains why they keep kept this right so that's their salvation without it then they go to hell I guess they need it now so it's to wash away their sins you
Speaker A
see so many verses Acts 2:38 Peter said repent and be baptized for the remission of sins but he's speaking to who if you look at that he was speaking to Jews okay why cuz those Jews were waiting for
Speaker A
a waiting for a sign and Kingdom see that it'll call comes from their Kingdom they're waiting for their Messiah see that okay is this making a lot of sense so this Skeleton version is very important okay if you want to find
Speaker A
all the right doctrines you got to start this Old Testament New Testament then Israel and church then kingdoms then everything starts to break apart did that make any sense okay that's why it's very important to have that okay think
Speaker A
about it there that's why Jesus in in Matthew chap 4 you can also write that down Matthew 4 Jesus was preaching about the gospel of the Kingdom with signs following that's why he did the Miracles to prove I am the Messiah the king
Speaker A
that's why those disciples were waiting for that physical Kingdom did that make any sense the only they never thought about was that he died on the cross they didn't know about the church that Jesus was going to introduce all they knew was
Speaker A
the Jewish thing see that see it makes sense all right now uh I bet man I better hurry okay and I have to cover everything otherwise you're going to get lost at the second teaching so First Peter chapter 3 shows water baptism for
Speaker A
the church is not for sins it's for What a symbol it's a symbol look at verse 20 uh verse 21 the like what fig figure symbol where unto even baptism doth also now save us uhoh so is it is it our
Speaker A
Salvation well it's not what you're thinking look at this when it talks about saving us the saving is not the putting away of the filth of the flesh what does that mean it doesn't save you from your sins it's not what you're
Speaker A
thinking if you doubt that keep keep your hand here keep your hand here go to 2 Corinthians 7:1 2 Corinthians 7:1 when the Bible says filthiness of the flesh that's referring to getting rid of your sins your sins second Corinthians 7:1
Speaker A
having therefore these promises dearly beloved let us cleanse ourselves from all what of the flesh filthiness of the Flesh and spirit perfecting Holiness in the fear of God I don't think that's talking about hygiene that's talking about your sins very apparent so when we
Speaker A
go back to 1 Peter 3: 21 baptism doesn't put away the filth of the flesh so then what is this saving us not your sins saving us of keep reading but the answer of a what good conscience toward God it's for your conscience how
Speaker A
many Christians today feel uneasy in their conscience when they don't get water baptized right why because Jesus commanded it as an observation as a symbol that we should observe see that observation that's why we practice it see it's for your conscience okay so now
Speaker A
we understand that notice uh Salvation now it makes sense here salvation by works and salvation by faith faith is spiritual see all that spiritual Kingdom you notice everything this is spiritual right conscience it's not physical you notice this this is physical see that
Speaker A
the filth of the flesh sins this is physical work why because when you go to church when you stay away from sin when you're um uh keeping yourself clean from the flesh that's all physical work what is work it's physical exertion see a lot
Speaker A
of people don't think that oh duh so see that that's why think about this when you look at verses in the Bible that talks about works or faith kept by works or uh you have to keep your faith by constantly doing
Speaker A
Works see if those verses apply to Jews that's what you're going to find out Old Testament you see so many verses about works for salvation The Book of Ezekiel 18 is the most infamous verse that Ray comfort and a lot Living Waters
Speaker A
and a lot of false churches are using that you uh that you you got to maintain your righteousness but if you go back to evil you lose your righteous salvation soul that sinth it shall die but that's wrong that's Old Testament
Speaker A
people use the book of Hebrews but that book is called Hebrews see that and then they apply so many verses there about work works and then uh losing salvation to themselves when it should be Jews James chap 2 is
Speaker A
the most infamous verse James chapter 2 talks about faith and works being justified by faith and works but if you read James 1:1 it says to the 12 tribes of Israel here's another thing so a lot of people don't think about
Speaker A
this another uh distinction that I have to write down that way people can get this is notice that this is uh regarding salvation here when we look at these salvation verses faith is not lost it's secured absolutely zero Works involved just
Speaker A
simply as a repentant sinner Believing on what Christ did on the cross a lot of people emphasize about repentance you got to stop this sin and sin in order to believe on Jesus Christ no that is Jewish okay you don't want to
Speaker A
get confused by that that's where John MacArthur messed up he called it lordship salvation that's where all churches almost practically messed up except Bible believing dispensationalists they'll say we do believe salvation by faith alone but this faith alone produces Works contrary
Speaker A
contrary okay it's like a duh statement that they said okay totally contradictory this one of not losing salvation and eternal security one saved always saved all of this was given by Paul who's an apostle to Gentiles see that now notice right here
Speaker A
this is not Jews now why is that important the Jews stopped until the future correct what time period are we under so you have to look at this Gentile perspective whose kingdom who whose timeline are we undergoing right now we're going under
Speaker A
the Gentiles not Jews did this make any sense that's the reason uh this Kingdom that's why that kingdom is very important their Kingdom got post pone it's Gentiles running the show so because of that Paul had to not go by
Speaker A
physical nationality he had to go by spiritual did that make any sense now think about it then now this makes a lot of sense then every other book of the Bible that you go to which is very important every other book in the Bible
Speaker A
you go to the apostles Jesus [Music] and then obviously the Old Testament writers okay the Old Testament prophets every other book in the Bible that talks about salvation where you lose it or it's kept by works you'll notice their Ministry is for
Speaker A
Jews Jesus said in Matthew chapter 10 that not to go to the Gentiles but to the Jews he told his Apostles that excuse me doesn't die all right Galatians Chapter 2 Galatians Chapter 2 Paul said his ministry is for Gentiles
Speaker A
but Peter James and John for Jews did that make any sense that's why the book of Acts it's not called the acts of the church acts of the who oh then that means if you're not careful you better pay attention which
Speaker A
one is he speaking to Jews or Gentiles does that make any sense now think about this well uh when we were to think about the writings of Jesus and the apostles and even the Old Testament prophets does that mean Christians
Speaker A
cannot claim any verse from there everything and absolutely everything applies to Jews no it's the same thing like the kingdom remember the kingdom aren't there some spiritual things in there about the kingdom when God was speaking to Jews that Christians
Speaker A
can spiritually apply to themselves didn't they do that with the law of Moses too the Christians see they're not applying every physical National thing to themselves they realize there are some things that can apply to me because spiritually speaking so that's why when
Speaker A
you look at their writings even though they're speaking to Jews think about verses in there that fit your Christian doctrine that fit well with your spiritual Christian doctrine then you know they apply to you same thing with the Jews the Jews they can get some
Speaker A
stuff from Paul's writing they can why aren't there some physical things in there that Paul talks about that can fit well or national things even that fit well for their National or their physical Kingdom see that makes a lot of
Speaker A
sense here's a second thing to consider they're going to argue that well didn't uh the signs when we're to think about the signs where okay the signs weren't there Gentiles participating in that see that's what they're going to say so this
Speaker A
is important to write down what's important to write down is yes the Gentiles were able to taking the signs but who were the primary source the audience the people who did the signs Jews Paul who ministered to Gentile is a
Speaker A
Jewish Apostle and by the way Paul was still dealing with Jews the Jews they kept getting chance after chance that's why if you read the book of Acts Paul kept saying Paul kept going to the Jews but he kept saying
Speaker A
it's going to go to the Gentiles if you keep rejecting see that that's why there's an in between of Gentiles and Jews here of the Christian doctrines and the Jewish doctrines do we Now understand that why the Jews were still waiting for their
Speaker A
Kingdom they still had chances but it was fading out that's why we teach signs were fading fading they were fading out because every time the Jews reject Ed God was turning more to the Gentiles all right did that make any
Speaker A
sense there okay by the way we didn't have the complete word of God that time see that but did you notice after we got the complete word of God if you look at early church history signs are hardly
Speaker A
mentioned or zilch that's important to think about all right could signs happen act it's just like every other thing yeah sometimes it can happen you see uh God doing great things in your life sometimes that can happen God can make
Speaker A
exceptions here and there Our God's a great God but that's not the primary thing primary thing is the word of God so you have to watch out for that okay so we've seen that in dispensations okay all right now we get the Salvation down
Speaker A
now we come over here okay let me close it off here so when you look at your Bible the Kingdom of Heaven the Jews you see them operating in their Kingdom in these three things that you want to write down
Speaker A
it's during the Old Testament time it's during the time of the tribulation and it's the time of the Millennium why is that why is it the time of the tribulation pretty simple if you go to uh Daniel chapter 9 all right Daniel
Speaker A
chapter 9 so I don't have time to go there but if you go to that verse that's the only verse in your entire Bible that talks about a seven-year tribulation only verse only verse it it is called Daniel's 70th week
Speaker A
now all Scholars will agree okay nearly all Christian Scholars it's called Daniel's 70th week 69 weeks are already passed but that 70th is postponed and reserved for tribulation that 70th week is the tribulation but if you look at the verse
Speaker A
the verse shows at verse 24 so that's Daniel 9:24 and 27 okay I might be a few verses off but I'm pretty sure that's right Daniel 9:24 and 27 27 shows the last week 70th week which is tribulation
Speaker A
24 shows you who those 70 weeks belong to it says for thy people Daniel for thy Holy City for the Forgiveness of sins and their transgressions it don't take 70 weeks for us to get forgiveness it's National a timeline
Speaker A
it's a national sin National forgiveness so that's Jews that's definitely not Christians that's so obvious so that's why we apply tribulation to Jews why is Millennium apply to Jews very obvious because they are waiting for their Kingdom their
Speaker A
physical Kingdom on the Earth the the Messiah to come that's why it's called Millennium 1,000 so when you look at verses in the Bible that talk about a future physical Kingdom for Jews that's Millennium when the Bible talks about tribulation or end
Speaker A
times when Jesus talks about end times in Matthew 24 for example pay attention to Jews be very careful that's not Christians when the apostles talk about end times Hebrews all the way to John pay and including Revelation pay attention no
Speaker A
Christian application Jews there if they talk about Christians they're going back and forth with tribulation timeline and church Age timeline because obviously they were writing during the church age right during the Christian timeline but they were talking about tribulation too
Speaker A
so because they were talking about tribulation while writing to Christians see you have that's why you have to look at that and see which verse fits well from these doctrines you saw see that that'll help you that's why we went
Speaker A
through all that see which verses that talk about salvation by works or salvation by baptism or signs or when it mentions tribulation or physical Kingdom to Jews and then when it talks about something spiritual it talks about faith
Speaker A
not by works talks about a lot of other things that sound spiritual and Christian those are for Christians see this is very helpful this is very helpful if you have a Skeleton version some outline then it filters everything all right
Speaker A
now Christians let's distinguish this Christians is church age obviously we call it Church age ever since uh the death of Jesus Christ God was gradually turning to Gentiles right he he started the church in Acts chapter 2 all right Acts chapter 2 he started
Speaker A
the church and it was going Jew to Gentile the Jews rejected what God was trying to start a spiritual thing with them because remember Jews can claim spiritual things too remember that all right they could have gotten it they
Speaker A
could have gotten physical and spiritual but they rejected the spiritual so then God had to switch it more to Gentile and then you'll notice the doctrines that it was uh not the same as uh the physical nation of Israel as they
Speaker A
gradually turn more to Gentiles see it makes sense now there's a change going on okay ours is simple this one so now let's go back and forth okay let's do this okay if you look at the verses that talk
Speaker A
about the tribulation you'll notice in Matthew chap 24 there is a Rapture God Gathering his elect from the four corners of the Earth from the Four Winds and he sends his angels and takes them up you'll notice that that Rapture is mentioned in
Speaker A
Matthew 24 tribulation it says immediately after the tribulation but that is for Jews remember if you read Matthew 24 it keeps saying Sabbath it keeps keep saying Judah those that be in Judea I mean it's Jews there okay it's so
Speaker A
obvious so there's a Doctrine called post-tribulation Rapture in other words there's a Rapture after the tribulation that's what churches are teaching that is heresy why that is for Jews in the tribulation Christians okay so let's go back over
Speaker A
here what do Christians believe what about the church here's the timeline of the church who has a Rapture too 1 Thessalonians 4 is church age the time line and they talk about Rapture but Matthew 24 talks about tribulation and they have
Speaker A
their Rapture very simple there's a different Rapture for different people then so church has their own Rapture but what timeline are we in right see this what timeline are we in so when you look at this timeline here
Speaker A
notice that the church has their own Rapture if it goes to here it's before tribulation that's why we're called pre-tribulation Rapture before tribulation but why do Jews have their own Rapture the Jews have their own own Rapture because their timeline goes back to
Speaker A
here Gentiles is getting the churches out of the way and the Jews are starting to enter into the kingdom if you look at Revelation 7 that's evidence God goes back to Jews he's operating with Jews again Revelation 7 but Matthew 24 is very
Speaker A
apparent Matthew 24 says he's Judea Jews Daniel 9 was more than apparent it says tribulation is for Jews okay so he goes back to Jews and they have their own Rapture see that and that's post-tribulation Rapture for Jews now there's another
Speaker A
Doctrine they call mid-trip Rapture so in the middle of the tribulation but Bible Believers don't really know there could be mid-trip there could be post-trip together or we could simplify it the simplification is all we know is there's a Rapture
Speaker A
sometime at the tribulation a tribulation Rapture whether it be mid or after we don't know or it could be both that's very possible but the point is the church has no part in those raptures our is pre-tribulation now we close it off with
Speaker A
this and then I'll let you go thank you for your patience okay I'm only 10 minutes late okay so now that we understand this in this Kingdom that is for Jews right then there are gospels that come out so when you look at the gospel it
Speaker A
don't think your gospel your gospel notice is over here see that Paul calls it my gospel why would he call it that if there's not a distinction of gospels that means he realizes are a different gospel and his gospel is
Speaker A
different from the others notice this is under Church age which is from spiritual kingdom of God we follow so far that's how that gospel is different but these gospels are different why because it comes from Kingdom of Heaven where it
Speaker A
applies to Jews and then it goes down here so there are there is one gospel for the church let's start out with that if you get this down then you can distinguish the other gospels Paul's gospel my gospel and you
Speaker A
want to write down first Corinthians 15 basically the death burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ that's the gospel we give to people so any verse in the Bible that talks about gospel that relates to that you know that's yours
Speaker A
but when you look at gospels different Gospels you get an everlasting gospel that talk which is revelation 14 and it talks about fearing God and worshiping him and avoiding the mark of the beast well that's pretty apparent then that's for
Speaker A
Jews in Tribulation notice that is for Kingdom of Heaven Again see that it's for Jews anticipating their Kingdom Gospel of armed warfare that's found at the book of Hebrews chapter 3 and 4 the Jews did not believe in God in
Speaker A
arming themselves and conquering their enemies the other nations so because of that that's why they lost their salvation and that's for Hebrews it's the book of Hebrews 3 and 4 see that's not Jews that's not the same believing
Speaker A
as us Christians Kingdom gospel uh uh just to finish this thought so you can watch my video that's more explanatory but that's why Hebrews 3 and 4 is talks about end times the tribulation where Jews have to arm themselves again do you know why
Speaker A
Israel now today is important for them to build up their defenses it's not because of so-called Palestinians it's against the whole world eventually CU in the tribulation the devil gets all the other nations United Nations to attack the Jews so the Jews
Speaker A
have to that's part of their salvation God wants them to defend themselves to take courage Kingdom gospel you see that at Matthew 4 and Matthew 5 the famous Sermon on the Mount but it's the gospel of the Kingdom
Speaker A
the Jews anticipating their physical Kingdom so God gives rules guidelines how to do the kingdom in the Millennium see now did this make sense you know what I showed you I basically showed you all if not all but nearly all
Speaker A
of every dispensational Doctrine through this Skeleton version so when you hear this in the future and you didn't know all your doctrines some of it was too fast or some of it over your head you at least got a Skeleton version if you have
Speaker A
that Skeleton version that filter in your mind when you hear these doctrines these filters in your mind will filter them more easily and it'll be more easily understood if you are not here at the beginning please watch this
Speaker A
video and write down notes that way in the future when you study these doctrines it'll be easier do this make any sense all right I got two other parts in series that'll be very helpful okay heavenly father thank you so much
Speaker A
for the truth of thy book and uh Lord that it's an amazing book when we rightly divide it everything makes sense in Jesus
