This is March 2024, and I am just now beginning to listen to Dr. Lawson preach. What a blessing! God give us more Bible preachers like him, John MacArthur, Skip Heitzig, and a few others.

Indeed. Their big problem with Jesus as the Messiah is that he suffered and died. But Paul though explained in Rom.11 that the remnant Jews will be saved eventually. Quote Rom. 11:25 For I do not desire, brethren, that you should be ignorant of this mystery, lest you should be wise in your own opinion, that blindness in part has happened to Israel until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in.And so all Israel will be saved, as it is written…unquote. the “All” in verse referred to the elect.

You will be happy to know that there is a wonderful Messianic Jewish pastor in Jerusalem -- named MENO KALISHER, of the "Jerusalem Assembly. House of Redemption" church. He preaches this way, too. 💜

God has blinded their eyes for now

The Invisible War by Steve Lawson, my favorite of all time

Jesus is Lord!!!

I was led here by wretched as well!

His books are great too! Highly recommend.

He is a fantastic preacher.

Can I get a link to your playlist? Please 😇

@@PortCanon Based on Steven Lawson making the list, just go to G3 Conference channel and stick with Ligonier channel too. Although that limits it to reformed preachers (which you may want to do).

scottspeig - The older I get the more reformed I become. More Power to ya. 💪🏼 🕊

@@PortCanon I'm on the fence (coming from Charasmatic background birthed from the Vineyard movement & John Wimber). Just need to find a sensible balanced overview before I'll commit to the Doctrines of Grace. Currently, the preacher that connects me to scripture the most is Alistair Begg at Truth for Life. The current 1 Samuel series has me quite afflicted from my comfortable life! :)

Peter masters. Add that man to your list

It's 5 years later, did you get through them yet?

NO KIDDING!- I don't think my phone has the internal capacity!

Me too

Now I feel it,now I understand.To feel sorrow for Jesus is my love

Exactly!

This is Dr Steven Lawson

For Andy to actually say that.....He doesn't see Clearly...SPIRITUALLY!!

Isaiah 53

Well he is better than you Jezebel 😅😅😅😅

It means to deny your human desires and to give your body and mind to Christ, this is called sanctification and its something that happens after you are saved by relying completely in Jesus Christ's sacrifice.

Why? Man has a responsibilty, he has a choice. Both are true God is sovereign and man is accountable

To JJ. Josh-there is a huge difference between responsibility and free choice.

He has said he'd prefer people to be Arminian than hyper-calvanist, as at least the arminian evangelises, but he is very strong on the sovereignty of God. He's even written a book (Doctrines of Grace) and is currently going through a bible study in Romans (See OnePassionMinistries on KZfaq). One of the best Reformed Preachers today in my opinion.

Bordering on preaching the gospel and calling sinners to repent and believe the gospel. Your post is iconic for reformers calling everyone else a heretic. Sow the seed, and keep sowing so that more people will be born new with imperishable seed through trust in the “Seed”

The KJV has it's own translation errors though, like any translation will.

@@HearGodsWord Hence the word "version," as in KJVersion. Anyone who preaches from the pulpit must be familiar with the original languages to combat translational errors.

@@robertdesantis6205 these fake cant be bother to be a historian.😔

keenanboy3000 YHVH and Jesus are one and the same. God manifested in the like of man to die for our sins.

He who has the son has everlasting life. Jehovah, Jesus Christ, Holy Ghost are one .... John 3:14-21, John 10:30, John 14:8-9, John 16:7 1 Corinthians 15:1-4

Jesus was never created, Jesus is and always was and always will be, Yes it all about Jesus.

Blasphemy blasphemy blasphemy

@@stevesoares9249 the pharisee called jesus a demon do you know why??? They wanted to kill him and you are too.

Jesus is God.

Hi Tod, A great resource to get a clear concise answers to your questions...this one and the others you mention can be found at GTY.ORG. If you are serious about Heaven and Hell you will find answers there. Go to all the verses you think are contradictions and listen to teaching on those. Another good resource is GotQuestions.org. Hope to see you in Heaven man. Place your faith in Jesus Christ... the only hope you have.

Hi Tod! That's a great question. It seems you're thinking about the issues and trying to grasp what we (Christians) believe when we call the Bible the inerrant word of God. If you're truly seeking a good response to your question, I'd like to refer you to an article on the website called GotQuestions .org . They answer all sorts of great questions, like your own, in a clear and concise manner. The specific article that deals with your question can be found by searching "infancy narratives". Your answer can be found under the article titled "Do the narratives of Jesus’ birth contradict each other?" I hope you will find this article answers your question, and again, I am really glad to see someone on KZfaq seeking out real answers to tough questions! Have a great day!

Cliff, Thanks for your response. I must say you're much more kind than some who reply. Certain Christians seem to take offense when you imply contradictions in scripture. I will check this out. Before I've had similar places referred to me to answer the contradictions. The problem they have, is when you research the history, Luke is specifically talking about the Census of Quirinius in 6 CE because that's when Judea became a Roman Province. Luke claims Jesus was born in 6 CE/they traveled from their home in Nazareth to Judea for the census/ Jesus was born in Bethlehem/ After Mary went through the Rites of Purification, 42 days later, they returned to Nazareth. Roman records make no mention of having it's subjects returning to the homes of their ancestors from 1000 years prior. They didn't care where their ancestors were from because censuses were for tax purposes. That was a way for Luke's author to have Jesus born in Bethlehem to fulfill prophecy. Then, Galilee was a silent kingdom, meaning it was neither administered nor directly taxed by Rome, so Joseph wouldn't have been required to go to Judea in the first place. In Matthew, Jesus would've had to have been born before the death of Herod in 4 BCE. Matthew has the family residing in Judea/ Jesus is born in Bethlehem/ They flee to Egypt to escape Herod's killing of the newborns/ they don't return to Judea until after Herod's death/ on their way back home to Judea, they learn Archelaus, Herod's son, is ruling Judea so they withdrew to Galilee and settle in Nazareth. There's at least a ten year discrepancy and more like a 15 years discrepancy for when Jesus was born between these two gospels.
