S2E66 Hosea 4_1-19

Do you know the Bible is God's Holy Word? Do

you know it is inspired, in errant, and infallible? If so, like, share,

subscribe and support this podcast. So we are mere Nathal

Ministries and now Redemption Draweth Nighe. Welcome, ladies and gentlemen,

Welcome to the program. We are your host jose and Matthew.

Tonight we're getting back to the Book of the Twelve Prophets,

and tonight is Joseah chapter four. It's you know, a

lot of people say that you can't translate or transcribe

this chapter into modern day events.

Ose. You know, they say, there's, well, what's going on

in this chapter?

There's no such thing as a lot of this stuff,

which I think a lot of people are disconnected from reality.

Aren't they.

Yes, me and my wife today did Romans Bible study

on Romans chapter seven.

Boy, there's a lot of people that are so lost

in this world.

That are calling themselves after the name of Christ. It's staggering. Ose,

It's it's it's staggering.

You know, let's consider this. It's public not.

Its posted on their website that planned parenthood executed three

hundred and ninety three thousand, abortions in twenty twenty four

went to another you know, that's where I started my

research branched out from there, and it's absolutely staggering. I mean,

wrap your mind around this. How many abortions do you

think was carried out globally?

I can't even fathom, Matthew, you can't even fathom. No,

I mean we're talking about abortions. But I mean when

you consider too, Matthew, you know, when you have certain

like artificial insemination, right, and look, you know, you think

it's a great thing that this family is trying to

have a baby and trying to you know, do everything

they can to have children, Matthew, until you realize that

to get that one viable fetus, Matthew, you've got to

go through I don't know how many pries. I don't

know how many fetuses that get tossed away that are

deemed unviable. And you know, Matthew, if you get more

than one viable fetus and the family only wants one fetus,

what do you do with the other viable ones? It

just blows my mind.

Matthew, Well, this is going to blow your mind.

Abortion was the number one cause of death globally in

twenty twenty four, seventy three million. I want you to

process that, Jose, seventy three million babies were butchered by

their mothers. These were they were assassinations carried out in

the womb. The mother paid an assassin to murder her baby. Now, look,

just so you all know what's coming. In the Birth Pains,

God is going to take out billion people. And you

could take that to the bank back what he says

with his own mouth. In the Birth Pains, ladies and gentlemen,

in the Birth Pains, one quarter of the global population

is taken out by the four writers. Currently that's over

two billion people. And you wonder why. So just as

the heads up, there's a key phrase in this short

little chapter. But if you don't know, if you haven't

saturated your psyche with scripture, well you're gonna blow right

past it.

You're gonna blow right past it.

You know, Ose, before we read this, what is the

state of the pulpit today? Now, by pulpit, I mean

the people leading the congregations. You know, some people call

them pastor, some people call them preachers, some people call

them a priest. What is the state of the pulpit today?

Is the pulpit holy and biblically pure?

No, Matthew, I'd say no, not at this stage in

the game.

And why would you say that.

I mean, we've commented before. You know how you can

do a simple Google search and see how you know

how many pastors are in trouble, are going to jail.

You know, you've got the past. Well you've got the past.

Uh you know, even if you don't go to jail,

but you've got adultery going on with with pastors and

and parishioners. I mean everything, everything you can imagine, Matthew,

is going on with the pulpit, you know. And it

kind of all starts with not wanting to priest the gospel,

not wanting to tell people to repent for giving up there,

you know, or or allowing their the sins to continue

because you want to keep the the peuse field instead

of proclaiming the word of God. That's where it starts at, Matthew.

And that leads to to all kinds of sin and

all kinds of crimes, and all kinds of trouble that

the church finds herself.

In, all kinds of trouble.

You know, for some reason, it just it has me

thinking about Martin Lloyd Jones. Now, he's an old time

creature in England a long time ago, back in the

beginning of the sixties, he had major problems because you know,

the churches in England were being encroached upon by liberals.

And I wonder what Martin Lloyd Jones would say today

when you have I mean, HOSEI I'm not talking about

your particular church, right, I'm not not talking about my

particular church. But there are ordained homosexual women occupying the pulpit,

not in once you're in many.

Churches, right right, I mean literally, if you were.

To transport him to today, he would leave his own

church due to apostasy. The pulpit has apostasized. I mean

you stated it quite clearly. You can prove that not

by the current amount of a pulpit occupiers being prosecuted,

no no, no, no, no, those that have been convicted

and are currently behind bore bars. That alone proves it

that the pulpit has apostasized itself from the Lord Jesus

Christ Jose. But that being said, let us remind the

listener we are not covering this in the masoretic text.

We are utilizing the Greek text. This Bible lesson is

coming from the Subtulogent, It's coming from the Hellenica. This

predates your Hebrew text by a thousand years.

And that's a fact.

We have in hand copies of the Subtuagin from three

hundred BC, that time in which the entire world began

to be Hellenized. That's right, Alexander the Great. So these

are all important facts for you to digest before we

move forward in the text.

And boy, it's a whopping text.

So I don't know if you want to take the

whole thing or or take it in however many parts

you want.

Really doesn't matter to me, because I'm all for it, Jose.

So you're going to be reading from the let some

English steptuagen.

Correct, Yes, I am Matthew.

All right, well give it to us however you want

to give it to us.

All right. We're in chapter four here a word of

the Lord, oh sons of Israel, because the Lord has

a dispute with those who inhabit the land, because there

is no truth or mercy or knowledge of God in

the land. A curse and a lie, and murder and

theft and adultery, has been poured out upon the land,

and bloodshed is mixed upon bloodshed. On account of this,

the land will lament and be diminished with all those

that dwell in her, with the wild beasts of the field,

and with the reptiles of the land, and with the

birds of the heaven. Even the fish of the sea

will come to an end. In order that nobody may

either judge or reproach anybody. But my people will be

like a priest who is opposed, and he will be

sick during the day, and a prophet will be sick.

With you. I have made your mother like knight. My

people has become as if it possesses no knowledge, because

you have rejected knowledge. So I will reject you from

being a priest to me and got the law of

your God. So I will forget your children in accordance

with their multitude. Thus they sinned against me, I will

turn their glory into dishonor they will eat the sins

of my people, and they will take their souls by

their injustices. And just as the people will be so

also the priest. And I will avenge against him his ways,

and I will repay him his counsels. And they will

eat and never be full. They prostituted themselves, and they

did not prosper because they neglected the Lord to guard fornication.

The heart of my people received both wine and intoxicating drink.

They inquired with omens, and they would bring news to

him with his rods. They were led astray by a

spirit of fornication, and they are fornicated away from their God.

They would sacrifice upon the summons of the mountains and

make offerings upon the hills under an oak and a

white poplar and a shady tree, because it is good shelter.

Because of this, your daughters will commit fornication, and your

brides will commit adult tree. And I will not look

upon your daughters when they prostitute themselves, and upon your

brides when they commit adultery, because the men would mingle

with the prostitutes and make offerings with those who have

been brought to an end. And the people who understand

wouldn't whine with a prostitute. But you owe Israel, do

not be ignorant, and you, o Judah, do not enter

into Gilgaual, and do not go up into the house

of beth Avon, and do not swear by the living Lord,

because Israel used to be irritated like an irritated heifer.

Now the Lord will tend them like a lab in

an open space. For I am partikuing in Idols sets

traps for himselves. He chose Canaanites, fornicating themselves. They were

sexually immoral, They loved dishonor through its insolence. You are

a commotion of wind in its wings, and they will

be put to shame by their altars. It's a boy.

God's really hammering away. Matthew at the clergy here that

that's the first thing I seen, and for a very

simple reason. He says in the first verse, there is

no truth or mercy or knowledge of God in the land.

And that's what starts this whole bald rolling Matthew, like

we said before, clergy refusing to preach the Gospel the way,

the way it was shared to us. Clergy refusing to

share the knowledge of God and tell everyone to repent

the way, the way all all the gospels start off. Matthew, right,

it's it's John the Baptist tells us to repent for

the Kingdom of God is at hand. That should be,

that should be well, We should we should be hearing

the church every day, Matthew, because we all need to

repent and and right away, Matthew. That's that's what struck

me about this chapter is God telling us why he

has a dispute with the with us and the results

of that dispute, right he pours upon on the land.

He pours upon a curse, a lie, murder, theft, and adultery.

Right there in the first two verses, Matthew, why, what

what happens? And why it happens? He tells us.

You're right, You're absolutely right, you know. Boy. To me,

this is very very hard words. I mean, I don't

know how to say it easy. I don't know how

to say it kindly. It just amazes me that these

verses are mad Jose.

There's a time where a white wedding dress meant something, right, right,

I think we all need to wake up. That don't

mean something anymore, doesn't No, And it just balloons out

from there, I mean literally just balloons out from there.

This, the current time that we're in is just off

the hook.

It's just, you know, the best way for me to

describe it is absolute lawlessness, absolute lawless.

And you know, I keep I keep telling this. And

as a matter of fact, me and my wife were.

Getting ready to do one of the installments of the

Romans Bible study, and before we went on, she told me,

you're not allowed to say Antiinomian free grace.

She goes, if you say it, you'll start preaching. Just

she forbid me to say it.

But really, the Bible tells you that it's because of

lawlessness that the love of most will wax cold, right, right,

And that's where we're at. This is what's being screened

from all the pulpits is grace, grace, just continue sinning.

And enter the kingdom of heaven in the way that

you're doing.

And there's suppose to be a big differentiation between the

priest and the people, right, Yes, the priest is supposed

to teach the people the difference between right and wrong.

I mean, is this not the truth that there is

such a thing as common law?

Right?

Right?

I mean, this is all over the planet.

You you shall not murder, right, Yes, that's common law.

What's being spewed from the pulpit today is not even that.

They say you just continue in your sins and enter

the kingdom of heaven. That's that's just how it's.

Done, and that means that there's no priest and the pulpit.

It's the people. But this.

Phraseology from verse six really gets me going because how

many times have you heard this phrase, this phrase in

public and especially you know when you're going through ministerial audios,

YouTube videos. My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge?

Did you know that's where this came from, Jose? I

mean this is a common phrase today. My people are

destroyed for lack of knowledge. That comes from verse six here.

Now that's what you all know from the masoretic text.

The subtulagen here says, my people has become as if

possesses no knowledge because you have rejected knowledge. So I

will reject you from bringing priest to me. And you

forget the law of your God, so I will forget.

Your children.

You know, one of the biggest businesses today, Jose is childcare.

Did you know that?

Right?

Why is that? Jose? Well?

Right now, everyone you've got two income households where both

the mother and the father have to go to work,

so that leaves the kids out either out in the

wind or in childcare.

You know, so I better get this out in the open. Huh.

Have you ever known me to mince words? Jose? No,

I have not, Matthew Amen, because.

The Lord he is my God. You better write that down, Jose,

because I mean it. That's why I don't mince words.

Because everything I have and everything I am stimmed from

this fact. You better write this down. I fear the Lord.

So here's what happened last year, twenty twenty four. Well,

let me back up a year twenty twenty three, our

youngest child graduated from high school. So twenty twenty four,

I permitted my wife to go work in the daycare,

specifically the babies. She took over the babies at the daycare.

I let her do that for one year.

She cried out to me, I want to day. I'm

gonna do this. I'm gonna do this, I'm gonna do this.

One year I made her quit, and it gave her

a deep appreciation, because you know, several times, these new

mothers would come and they would hesitate on leaving the institution.

They talk about this, they talk about that, and it

wouldn't be too long before they would just bust up

balling after they'd been there for an hour when they're

supposed to drop off their baby and leave. So of

course they continued down this path because it.

Wore off, right, It wore off right.

They trained themselves to disconnect themselves from their babies. Oh yes,

my wife witnessed more than one of these, and my

wife marveled after them. Was quite quite clear that they

did love their babies.

But they love that more. Can I be forthright?

Jose, Yes you can math.

Amen, they love that. They love that ash more than

they love that child. That's a fact.

They were desirous of higher heels, right. They were desirous

of lower necked dresses.

Amen.

Amen, Amen.

They were desirous of.

The bells and whistles, right, Jose, that's what that's modern terminology,

when when you want the fancy dancy of anything, they say,

that's the bells and whistles, right right.

And they were bacted their own children.

So these verses are very clear that God says, when

this happened, I will forget your children. So wrapped up

in these verses is something very important. He hints at

it here, he hints at it in this verse. My

people has become as if it possesses no knowledge, because

you have rejected knowledge. So I will reject you from

being a priest to me, and I will forget. And

you forgot the law of your God, so I will

forget your children. He's beating around the bush here, but

in verse nine he comes out and says it, and

just as the people will be, so will the priest.

Now it's one thing when you look at this in English.

It's another thing when you look at it in Greek,

because that quotes coming from somewhere. I know that the

people will be as the priest, and that's what this

says in Greek, says the people will be as the priest.

This is a trigger for me.

I know what that's talking about.

It's stating that this is the state of what happens.

Right before one chapter in the Bible. I'm going to

give you one chapter in the Bible.

Hostully, Now, I'm gonna expect you to give me dictation

on it. Okay, So I might be a little harsh

if you can't answer, that's all right. Say I don't remember, Matthew, Okay,

is that fair?

Yes? Yes, Matthew.

Tell me riddle me Matthew twenty or Isaiah chapter twenty four.

Riddle me that what what is that about? What's what's

Isaiah chapter twenty four about.

That's a the apocalypse of Isaiah, Matthew. That's that's where

you get the the earth rolling to and fro like

a drunkard, the great and terrible day of the Lord.

And that's that's the events that have described there in

Isaiah twenty four. Matthew.

That's right.

And if you remember right, it starts out with those words, right,

this will be like the that, Yes, the this and

that it's the this and that one's right right, Well,

they're incorporated in that text, ladies and gentlemen, first.

Two, and the people will be like the priest.

Mm hmmmm.

This is why I said to you that seventy three

million babies were murdered in twenty twenty four. You know

that's basically that's three quarters of a billion, right hose, right, Matthew.

And let's be clear, because of this, during the birth pains,

God will take out two over two billion right now,

I think there's two point zero eight billion on the planet.

He's going to take out a quarter of us.

So you realize that here incorporated in this text, you're

supposed to realize that, especially in Greek, you can't see

this in English. This is prophetically alluding to the simple

factors are going to be a day in time when

the Harlew tree would become so bad that the priest.

Would be women.

So I keep switching back here from masculine to feminine

priest people, harror, tary, adultery. Let's go back to Martin

Lloyd Jones, big time British preacher, big time. That was

just what nineteen sixty nineteen sixty one through there where

he had his big controversy. He stood up and locked

his knees and said, no, no, these liberals aren't Christians, jose.

No, they're not.

He locked his niece and said, no, no, we ain't

going to go there. If you were to transport him

to today, what would he do?

Would he have a heart attack?

I mean, you realize that we just had both lesbian

supposed priests stand up and rebuke the president we just elected.

It was all over the news right right. What would

he have done? What would he have done? So you

need to realize the cross pollination here between Hoseiah and Isaiah.

You better get the cross polonization here.

Let me read from the lexum subcusion here Isaiah chapter

twenty four. Look, the Lord is destroying the inhabited world,

and we'll desolate it. Let me just stop right there, Jose.

Can you pull up for me Isaiah chapter thirteen thirteen. Please,

it's real easy to memorize thirteen thirteen.

Read it for me, all right.

I've got the Hebrew here, Matthew, so I'll.

Just ah, that's perfect, that's perfect. Read it you, King James.

Therefore I will shake the heaven, and the Earth will

move out of her place in the wrath of the

Lord of Hosts, and in the day of his fierce anger.

Jose, what is the Earth's places?

Where it's where it isn't It's currently in its orbit, Matthew.

We call that the habitable zone, right, yes.

Goldilocks zone.

Yes, yes, These new age scientists like to call it

the Goldilock zone. Did you catch that God's getting ready

to feel punch you out of it? Riddlely this hose

based on your knowledge of the Book of Revelation. Do

you think he moves the planet farther away from.

The Sun and we all freeze? Or do you think

he moves us closer to the Sun and we get

uncomfortably warm? Which one do you think it is.

I've been trying to stay closer, Matthew.

That's right, because the sun scorches and it causes boils

to break. God out on everybody, right, Yes, they gnaw

their tongues right, yes, Okay, So now.

I've given you all the context. You better believe this.

Because the Lord, he's God, and you are less than

zero compared to him, because he is creator, you are created.

So just so you understand, he is going to do this,

and you think, well, that's impossible, we'll die, Jose, do

me another one. What's Revelation chapter nine, verse six?

Say?

Please, Revelation nine verse six. Yes, I'll take it in

the Hebrew, and that's fine with me. But if you're

reading a New American Standard Bible or the new King

James version, that'll be the Greek.

But I'm good with that. Read it.

Yeahvation nine verse six, right, yep. In those days men

will seek death and will not find it. They will

these desire to die, and death will flee from them.

You understand what that means, Jose. Yes, he's going to

feel upunch you, and the goal is the sun. And

in your foolishness, in your hatred of God, you will desire.

Oh my goodness, won I'll just die. I'll just commit suicide.

Guess what, ladies and gentlemen, it's then when you will

raise your voice and weeping and willing, and your heart

will know that the Lord he is God, and you

have rejected him.

So let me get back to Isaiah chapter twenty four. Look,

the Lord is destroying the inhabited world and will desolate it,

and he will uncover its face and scatter those living

in it. And the people will be like the priest,

and the servant like the Lord, and the maid like

the lady.

The fire will be like the seller, the lender like

the barrower, and the debtor like him who owes.

The land will be ruined with ruin, and the land

will be blundered with plundering.

Or the mouth of the Lord has spoken these things.

The land mourned, and the inhabited world was ruined.

The exalted of the land mourned, and the land acted

lawlessly because of those inhabiting it, because they transgress the

law and change.

The ordinances and epernal estimate.

I can keep reading, but this is what we're talking

about in Joseah trapter four. Now I don't I'm not

saying you should believe it. I am saying with certainty

this you could wait for it. Did I confuse you

with my phraseology. I don't care with you whether you believe.

It or not.

But you are waiting for it because it is going

to happen once again, because the Lord, he's God, and

these are the things that he has said he will do.

Now you caught that.

There in this It was riddled up in these opening

verses of Isaiah chapter twenty four.

You're looking at the Greek. You can crack it.

You're looking at the Greek, you can catch it. He's

switching back here between masculine and feminine. You understand what

he's saying, which back in these here, let's talk about this, Jose.

Would it be physically possible for there to be a

female priest in the pulpit or let's just say, in

the high priest position of Caiaphas at the time of Christ.

No, Matthew, no, no.

Not only could they not be a priest, they couldn't

in any way be associated with the clergy to the

temple right right period period, couldn't be done.

But take no, it's amazing what the Greek can do

apart from the Hebrew it is amazing, scary, but it

is mainly so what say you, Jose, I've rambled on

here for a pretty good pitch.

Well, Matthew, I'm following your your train of thought. And

if in the beginning of Hoseah, you have the priests

not doing their job, priests rejecting the knowledge of God,

ignoring the laws of God, and so essentially the people now, Matthew,

have no have no way of reaching God because they

have no there's not that priest is not there. Who's

supposed to be the one that provides the knowledge of God,

the one that that that is supposed to bring them

closer to God, you know, and supposed to teach the

laws of God. They're not there. They're not doing their job.

So as a result, now you get in verse in

verse eleven and twelve, right, it says now that people

have to inquire with omens, they have to seek use

with rods, and and that God tells us is a

spirit of cornication because instead of knowing and understanding His

word and and knowing what what God wants us to do,

what we're supposed to be doing because God, in God's

word he tells us what is to come, Matthew, that's

without a doubt. He tells us what we're supposed to

be doing, and he tells us what is to come.

And if if we no longer have that priest serving

that function to bring us closer to God. Well, now,

the people, Matthew, they're they're they're seeking after anything and

anything that that they can do to try to understand

their their future, to try to predict their future, anything

to try to get the upper hand on what they're

supposed to be doing in regards to their their their

fellow their their fellow man around them. They're grasping at

straws for anything because that priest is no longer doing

their job, Matthew. Their priests has has rejected the law

of God, and so that's called it causing his people

the sheep to go straight. So that that's immediately what

I'm picking up on their, Matthew. The other thing that's

that's coming to mind is, you know, when we think

about you know, women in the clergy, right immediately you

consider the spirit of Jezebel and what it says in

the book or Revelation about that, and it takes on

a different tone, Matthew, when we understand historically these temple priestesses,

they were, for all intents and purposes, temple prostitutes. There's really,

like you said, there's no there's no such thing as

a as a woman priest serving the function that that

the male clergy would do. The female clergy and quotes

was essentially temple prostitutes, and that that type of temple

priestess caused many, many of God's people to fall in

the past, Matthew, to succumb to that temptation. And so

I think, uh, maybe we don't grasp the hist oracle

context in today's world of what it means to have

female clergy, Matthew. But historically that is the function of

the priests. They were temple prostitutes.

That's right, Jose, And everybody knows it. I'm glad you

came out and said it.

I was alluding to it. This is a historic. Look,

archaeologists are the first ones that can tell you this, right, right,

you know, everyboerey to go back in time.

To let's say eighteen ninety nine, everybody would have told

you this. Everybody knew at that time the only priestess

ever in history was a Harlot, she was a temple prostitute. Literally,

for the first six thousand years of this planet, everybody

knew that, Jose.

Everybody knew it, right, So I'm glad you come out

and said it. I was alluding to it. And you

know what, nothing has changed, Jose, Nothing has changed.

If you see a woman in the pulpit, Jose, just

so you know, she's a harmlet, okay, because she's obviously

not worshiping your God, is she right?

Because she has rejected the word of your God.

She's rejected. I mean, we can go through the chapters

and verses, but we don't need to. These things are

common knowledge.

For thousands of years. You couldn't say one without meaning

the other.

If you said priest this, you meant prostitute only her

prostitute was not on the corner.

It was in the temple.

That's quite simply a historical fact. There is no debating it.

Let's see if you saw something else that I saw.

Read verse nineteen of Hoseah chapter four.

Please you are a commotion of wind in its wings,

and they will be put to shame by their altars.

What do you make of that?

I mean, when I hear wings Matthew. I mean, I

immediately think of eagles wings, but I'm not sure that's

the same connotation here. Yeah, I'm not sure, Matthew. I'm

not sure about that verse.

So you're thinking about Zachariah. I just caught you by surprise,

didn't I.

Yep.

Don't you hate it when.

I do that? No, it's actually quite enjoyabul Matthew. I mean, well,

I might blind the top of my head off.

You know, we have talked about those verses more than once.

This being a in time ministry, right right, I mean,

this isn't our first rodeo. Ladies and gentlemen, Please don't

think it's our first rodeo, because it's not. Zacharia five

When I turned and raised my eyes, and I saw

a flying scroll. And he said to me, what do

you see it? So I answered, I see a flying scroll.

It's linked is twenty cubits, and it's with ten cubits.

Then he said to me, this is the curse that

goes over the face of the whole earth. Every thief

shall be expelled according to the side of the scroll,

and every perjurer shall be expelled according to that side

of it.

And I will send out a curse. As the Lord

of host, it shall enter.

The house of the thief and the house of the

one who swears falsely by my name. It will remain

in the midst of his house and consume it with

its timber and stones. Then the angel who talked with

me came out and said to me, lift up your

eyes now and see what this is that goes forth.

So ask what is it.

He said, it is a basket that is going forth.

He said, this is their resemblance throughout the earth. Here

is a lead disc lifted up, and this is a

woman sitting inside the basket. Then he said, this is wickedness,

and he thrust her down into the basket and threw

a lead cover over its mouth.

Then I raised my eyes and looked, and.

There were two women coming with the wind in their wings,

for they had wings like the wings of the stork.

And they lifted up the basket between heaven, or between

Earth and heaven. So I said to the angel who

talked with me, where are they carrying the basket? And

he said to me to build a house for it

in the land a shnar. When it is ready, the

basket will be set there on its.

Base Ah, Yes, the wind in their wings.

But let's get back to let's get back to isaiahs

Chapter twenty four, shall we? I did it, but you

again didn't I jose.

Verse sixteen, Oh Lord, God of Israel, from the wings

of the land, we have heard wonders hope for the

pious one, and they will say, woe to you who

reject you, who reject the law.

You got to read that in Greek. You get this

narrative that.

You just get this narrative, that this idea is being

strung along that in the end, right before the end,

these are the reasons why the birthpags come.

On the Lord. He's God, and he's quite simply just

had it. He's had it. You know, this makes things

very dire.

Now I could just set right here and do a

complete commentary, because if you think this is the only

two ties in between Hoseiah chapter four and Isaiah twenty four,

you're grossly mistaken. These are tied together. Well, what is

the overall message here in Hoseah chapter four? Jose, what

what do you think he's trying to get at?

I mean, Matthew, it's pretty God kids are pretty simple

for us, right, do what is right, and all will

be well. But when it comes to you know, our

natural self, Matthew, we were always seeking how we can

do it better, how we can do it on our own,

because we don't trust in God. We don't believe that

He's going to provide for us. We don't believe that,

if you know, the mother stays at home and takes

care of the children, that the household needs will be met,

or those needs that God will provide us. We want more.

We want what Egypt has to offer, not not what

God himself is providing. We want those those cakes and

those fancy pastries that we used to get in Egypt.

We want that instead of you know, the bread from

heaven that God is offering us our daily bread, like

he tells us that he will provide. Right. We don't

want that, Matthew. We want more, and so because of

that we reject God's word and we seek, we seek

other ways of getting more, other ways of satisfying that appetite.

And we listen, Matthew, to those that those priests, those

prophets that tell us what we want to hear, and

we seek after that. And of course we know that

that is that is adultery, that is idolatry when we

engage in those types of beads, Matthew. There will come

a time, though, Matthew, where God's gonna put his foot

down and it's either put up or shut up. And

it's either going to be we follow after him, after

his law, after the be attitudes that were laid forth

by his son, Matthew, or we're gonna chase after after other.

We're gon we're gonna be that. We're gonna be the

the the adulters. We're gonna be the fornicators chasing after

things that are not from God. We're gonna reject God's word.

That's that's what I'm seeing here, Matthew. And I mean

we're you know, we're we're given all this language of immorality,

of prostitution, of adultery, you know. But God's God speaking

about us as as his bride, us as his you know,

he if he's our husband, then we're supposed to act

a certain way, Matthew. We can't be out there doing

what we want to do. We've got to follow his lead.

He is our head and we have to follow his

plan for us, which is for him for his son

to be our head so this is you know, it's again, Matthew,

this is not nothing new that we haven't read before,

but it's it's it is beautiful how how we're connecting

it to all these other chapters in the Bible, what

God has already said, what God has already told us,

and it's just reinforcing everything that he said before. Matthew,

it's a nothing. You hear nothing. You hear that that

you're revealing, Matthew, that that we have not read before.

Amen, A nothing we haven't read before.

You know, Jose, you got to saturate yourself with scripture,

don't you. Amen, Then you're able to grasp what's being

talked about and the severity of the consequences. Let's do

this verse sixty. Because Israel used to be a irritated

like an irritated heifer. Now the Lord will tend them

like a lamb.

In open space. Your thoughts, I.

Don't know what an irritated heifer is, Matthew, but I

know what a lamb in open space is. I know

how we've been told, how we're going to be taken

care of like that, like a shepherd tends his flock,

like you know the that once we're in his hand.

We will not be let go man. You and that

that to me, is telling us about the place that's

prepared for us, Matthew, where we're going to be. Where

we're going to be in that tabernacle of David, away

from everything once, once these things fall on the earth, Matthew,

that's what I see.

There no doubt, right, I mean, there's no doubt about

the sheep. But you're right, that's kind of strange. I mean,

an irritated heifer. That's that's kind of classic. It it peaks, well,

it piques your curiosity, right right, hmhmm. You probably should

check the Greek translation of that Jose if you ever

get the chance, because it's saying a whole lot more

than you think it's saying. Right, It's saying a lot

more than you think it's saying.

Yeah. The Hebrew calls it a stubborn calf, Matthew, which.

Well, you've got access to the Thompson Septuagent translation, don't

you not.

Right now, Matthew, my computer that I have that on

is on the fritz.

Okay, pull that up right now. All right, Well, I'll

read it to you.

This is what the Thompson translation of the Subtrusian says,

because Israel ran about madly like a heifer stung by

a goldfly, the Lord will now feed them like a

lamb in a roomy place.

Say scratched his head? What what do you just say?

What does that mean? What could that mean? But you're right,

you are right about the lamb part. You know what

that means.

Amen, Amen, there is.

No doubt what that means.

No doubt.

So let's try this out of the new English translation

of the Septuagint. Let's try maybe maybe this should shed

some light. For like a frenzied heifer, Israel went into

a frenzy. Now the Lord will feed them like a

lamb in a broad place. Now I've really got your attention,

don't I. You need to translate this for yourself. You

need to look at it because it's it's complicated enough that.

It takes wisdom. Do you understand that?

Amen?

One things for sure?

He is very clear that it's Israel that will be

undergoing the transport right right, Yes, he's very clear, he says,

because Israel, right.

The So what does it say about Judah? Read verse fifteen?

But you o Israel do not be ignorant, and you,

oh Judah, do not enter into Gilgal, and do not

go up into the house of beth Avon, and do

not swear by the Living Lord.

We've talked about this many times, right, I mean, they

are just two types, right, There's only two types that

can enter into the New Covenant, just two types, first

for the Jew.

And then everybody else.

Right, right, Who does the New test of Men say

is Israel? Jose, who's Israel?

That's Christians, Matthew, Jews and Gentiles.

That's right, Jews and Gentiles, because the Jews that enter

into the New Covenant become Christians. Do you know that

Judah was only one of the twelve tribes of Israel?

Jose?

Amen? Amen?

Why do all the Christian Zionists have it the other

way around? For some reason they think that we Christians

are going to be reintegrated into the tribe of Judah.

I don't know, but that is how they play it,

no doubt about it. So you do need to know this,

that Judah was the tribe that would produce the monarchy

that the rest of Israel would follow.

Right.

So literally he's coming out and telling you this is

the leaders.

Of Israel.

You know, I've probably ruffled some feathers with some people,

so I'm just going to go and read the new Covenant.

It's really easy to remember. It's Jeremiah thirty one, starting

in verse thirty one. Now that's pretty easy to memorize,

right ose, Yep, it's Jeremiah thirty one thirty one. Behold,

the days are coming, Saith the Lord, when I will

make a new covenant with the House of Israel and

the House of Judah, not according to the covenant which

I made their fathers on the day when I took

them by the hand to bring them out of the

land of Egypt. Because they did not abide by this

covenant of mine. Therefore I took no care of them.

For this, Saith the Lord, is my covenant which I

will make with the House of Israel after those days.

I take moment.

He didn't bring it up by saying in the house

of Judah, so you need to understand that by verse

thirty three, you're supposed to know Judah will be integrated

into Israel. Anyway, let me continue after those days, Saith

the Lord, I will adapt my laws to their understanding

and write them on their hearts, and I will be

their God, and they shall be my people. And they

shall no more teach every man his neighbor and every

man his brother, saying no, Lord, for all will know me,

from the greatest to the least of them. For I

will be merciful to their iniquities, and no more remember

their sins. There's only one way, and there's only one

New Covenant, just one. It amazes me how most people

forget where this is quoted by the Lord Jesus Christ.

Blows me away.

It amazes me how they really do forget what it says.

How what the Lord Jesus Christ exactly what he said?

This is really easy to remember too. Matthew twenty six,

twenty six. Okay, so how much of you or could

you get? Jeremiah thirty one thirty one and Matthew twenty

six twenty six.

Now, as they were eating, Jesus taking the loaf.

Mounts the blessing broke and gave his disciples and said,

take eat.

This is my body.

Then, having taken the cup and giving thanks, he gave

it to them, saying Greek, ye all of it, for

this is my blood, that of the New Covenant that.

Shed for many for the remissions of sin. There's only

one way.

Through the shed blood of the Lord Jesus Christ is

to passover lamb Amen.

Jose, Amen Matthew.

It is the Lord's passover.

That has a different meaning now. Before it was just

to passover. Now it's the Lord's passover because he sacrificed himself.

Write these two things down and research them. Fulfillment theology

and Covenant theology. You cannot build your e schatology off

of no other things. If you don't know fulfillment theology

and covenant theology, you will do nothing but chase your tail.

I've pointed out things to you tonight to get your attention,

to try to get you to dig into the scripture.

But I'm telling you, if you seek, you will find.

Is that not the truth?

Hose Amen, Matthew it is.

When you started participating in this ministry, did you have

a clue what the Hebrew or the Greek said? Absolutely none, Matthew,

And now no one can take it from you.

Can I?

Amen? Amen?

Thank us out of here in prayer.

Jose, dear heavenly Father whom we love and serve, I

thank you personally for allowing me and my Brother, to

gather here and to share your word with your ecclesia,

with your church, with your people that are around this world. Lord,

today I pray for that good shepherd that still remembers

your word, that still teaches your word, that follows your

law and instructs your people in that law. Lord, None

of us would be here today if you had not

planted those good shepherds in our path, if those good

shepherds were not there to show us what you have

to say, to show us your commandments, and to show

us the love and the beatitude shared by your son.

So Lord, I asked that those good shepherds outshine those

bad shepherds. That if those good shepherds are there, that

you may guide them and keep them true to your word, Lord,

that they reject their will and follow your will. And Lord,

I also ask that you put in the hearts of

your people who still hearken to your word, that they

do not fall under the spell of those bad shepherds,

that they themselves do not go after their will, but

after your will. Father. And I asked that while there

is still time, your Holy Spirit may enter the hearts

of those good shepherds and to enter the hearts of

your people, so that we may remain steadfast. Asked until

you're coming, Lord, that will remember that you have promised

that your son will return, and we'll set everything right

the Lord. Until that time, I asked that you continue

to allow us to pray together, to read your word together,

and to come together as your body, so that we

may seek after the lost Lord, and that we may

help each other until you return. I ask all this

in the name of your Son, our Lord and Savior,

Jesus Christ. Amen, Amen and Amen.

Until next time, And gentlemen DoD blesst Speak.
