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 Maranatha Ministries and now Redemption draweth
-
nigh. Welcome, Ladies and gentlemen, Welcome to Maranatha Ministries. I am
-
Matthew Miller. This is going to be an introductory episode for those of you
-
that have never participated in Maranatha Ministries. Here at Maranatha Ministries we have two
-
types. We have ministers and we have members. Are the two ways you
-
can participate in Maranatha Ministries. What does that mean? Or perhaps maybe I
-
should do a little bit more about myself. Maranatha Ministries is based in Reader,
-
North Dakota. So onto the meaning the word Maranatha is found. It
-
is a Greek word used in the Greek New Testament in First Corinthians, chapter
-
sixteen, verse twenty two. It's a word there used and it is the
-
strongest Cocordance says that it is G thirty one thirty four and it reads as
-
such Maranatha aramaic and it means an explanation of the approaching divine judgment of Kalidi
-
origin. I'll take note. I need to say that right off the bat.
-
Some churches call it Kalidi, some churches call it Aramaic. It's the
-
same exact thing. Kaladean and Aramaic is the same thing. So with that
-
in mind, I'm going to give you a little bit more. Because this
-
ministry we cover both the Hebrew and the Greek. Let me explain a little
-
bit about that. What's the difference between Biblical Hebrew and Aramaic. Aramaic or
-
Kalidi is a transliteration into the Hebrew of the Kaladian language. So there are
-
different suffixes in prefixes, But in your strongest concordance you will find H seventy
-
four thirty eight. That is rome or what is translated to be it's a
-
shout of a shout of deliverance. Now you couple that with the Hebrew word
-
H eight five eight, which is athha. It means to arrive. So
-
I'm giving you a whole lot more information than your strongs is going to In
-
the Greek. I just give you the two root words from which it comes.
-
When you put these two together, it relays the idea of first Thesalonians,
-
chapter four, verse sixteen, which reads as such, And take note,
-
every time I read the scripture, it will most probably be out of
-
the New American Standard Bible, the ninety five update, because that has passed
-
into the public domain. So reading from the New American Standard Bible ninety five
-
update. First Thatsalonians chapter four and verse sixteen. For the Lord himself will
-
descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel and with
-
the trumpet of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. This
-
is the idea that the Greek word maranatha comes from. This, this compound
-
word. So it is to shout from the arrival. That's what the prefix
-
mem from, So to shout at the arrival, the arrival of who,
-
of course, the Lord Jesus Christ at his perusia asis described in First Thesalonians,
-
chapter four, verse sixteen. So now you have an a Hebraic understanding
-
of the Greek origin of the word maranatha. It's first, that's Leones chapter
-
four, verse sixteen. It's where this idea is coming from. So,
-
ladies and gentlemen, you need to need to know that the whole purpose of
-
marianatha ministries is to prepare the way of the Lord. That's what we're doing.
-
We are preparing for the perugi of Christ. This ministry is not like
-
any ministry you have ever encountered, or at least to my knowledge. And
-
this is one of the very primary reasons. Is because we hold that the
-
Bible, God's Holy Word is a source code. That source code is binary
-
in origin. It is one Hebrew and it was too Greek. You put
-
the Hebrew Bible source code together and you get the Bible God's Holy Word.
-
This is the only ministry we'll ever hear say that. All other ministries will
-
preach for the Hebrew and then the other side of the table preaches for the
-
Greek. This is the only ministry you're ever going to run into, at
-
least to my knowledge, we preach them both. We preach both the Hebrew
-
and the Greek. This makes things very mechanical in nature when it comes to
-
studying the Bible God's Holy Word. Take note that if you do a precursorary
-
look of this subject, you will find that there are massive differences between the
-
Hebrew Old Testament and the Greek Old Testament. We believe them both because we
-
believe that they are data points in a stream. So we believe that one
-
will be speaking and another one can be speaking literally or vice versa. And
-
we will explain more about that when we get into our polysemic methodology of interpretation.
-
So you're never going to hear anybody say that outside of this ministry the
-
septuagen is true and the Hebrew is true. It's just they are giving you
-
information about two different sets of data. So let's do this. So what
-
is the Bible God's Holy Word? First, we're going to talk about the
-
Bible itself. You need to know up front before you go any further.
-
You need to know this. The Bible is inspired, it is in errant,
-
and it is infallible. Once I say that, a great deal of
-
many people will exit stage left right then, and you should. If you
-
do not believe the Bible is God's Holy Word, please go somewhere else.
-
Please don't waste your time, and don't waste my time. By all means,
-
do not waste the Lord's time. Now, let's get to these specific
-
data points. How is the Bible God's Holy Word in errant? Two Timothy
-
Chapter three, Verses sixteen and seventeen all scripture is inspired by God and profitable
-
for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for training, and righteousness,
-
so that a man of God may be adequate equipped for every good work.
-
Period. This is why you will never hear me say that Paul wrote first
-
Corinthians. You will never hear me say that Peter wrote Second Peter, the
-
Holy Spirit wrote the Bible, God's Holy Word. Number two? How is
-
it in errant? Well, that's easy, John seventeen seventeen. Sanctify in
-
the true. Sanctify them in the truth. Your word is truth. Period.
-
Let me read that one more time. Sanctify them in truth. Your
-
word is truth. Number three? How is it infallible? What does infallible
-
even mean? That means that the Bible is the eternal final authority. It
-
is irrelevant of its place and time. Now this will provoke a whole lot
-
of you. The Bible, God's Holy Word was not written in an ancient
-
times, and what it says only pertains to first century Christians. No,
-
it don't. It is infallible. Matthew chapter five, verse eight. For
-
truly, I say to you, until heaven and earth pass away, not
-
the smallest letter nor stroke shall pass from the law until it is all accomplished
-
John ten four and thirty five. Jesus answered him, has it not been
-
written in your law? I said you were God's if he called them gods
-
to whom the Word of God came, and the scriptures cannot be broken.
-
First Peter chapter one, verses twenty three and twenty five. For you have
-
been born again, not of this scene, which is perishable, but imperishable,
-
that is, through the living and enduring Word of God. For all
-
fleshes like grass and all its glory, like the flower of the grass.
-
The grass withers and the flower falls off, but the Word of the Lord
-
endures forever. And this is the word which was preached to you. So
-
going forward, you need to know that we're not gonna argue about the KJV
-
because it's not the Bible, God's Holy Word. We're not gonna argue about
-
the New American Standard Bible or the English Standard Version. The Bible, God's
-
Holy Word is written in Hebrew and Greek, and that's it. Now we're
-
going to cross the barrier because people that say that they're wishy washy, and
-
they don't present to you the manuscripts that are in fact the Bible, God's
-
Holy Words. So let's start out with the Hebraica. This is what Maranatha
-
Ministry calls the Complete Hebrew Bible. It is the Masoretic Text coupled with the
-
Delitch New Testament that probably took you all by surprise. Who's this Delitch character?
-
We will get to him here in a minute. The Masoretic Text comes
-
to us basically via two different manuscripts. Number one is the Leningrad CODEXT.
-
It is the oldest complete manuscript of the Hebrew Bible. It uses the Masoretic
-
Text, and according to its publication statement, it was made in Cairo in
-
the year one thousand and eight AD. Its companion manuscript is the Aleppo Codex,
-
which was written in the Seri and the city of Tiberius in nine twenty
-
eighty. Now, the problem with the Aleppo Codex is that parts of it
-
have been missing since the nineteen forty seven anti Jewish riots in Aleppo. So
-
roughly forty percent of the manuscript, which is basically the majority of the Pentateuch,
-
was missing, and only two additional leaves have been recovered since then.
-
So basically, during the Jewish riots and Aleppo in nineteen forty seven, someone
-
stole the Torah. Of course I took you by surprise. Earlier I just
-
said Pentituke. The Pentituk is its proper Christian terminology. It's the first five
-
books. That's why it's called Pentituk. That comes from the Greek word for
-
five. But the Hebrew roots people the Judaeist, which we are not.
-
We are not Judaist, they call it Torah. So this is the Hebrew
-
Old Testament. We couple that with the delicch New Testament. When I say
-
that, most people are quite unaware that the Hebrew New Testament was constructed before
-
the revival of the Hebrew language and instituted as the language of the modern day
-
Israeli Empire. What I'm telling you is absolutely the facts of the matter.
-
Delicious translation of the New Testament to Hebrew is from eighteen seventy seven. It
-
is still considered the standard New Testament edition in Hebrew, and in its tenth
-
edition it was revised by Arnold Ulrich at Deligius's insistence. The addition was intended
-
to be used for a prosper among Jews. Later, it was revised by
-
Gustav Dolman, with whom he shared a common interest in the evangilation, the
-
evanangelization of the Jews. It is a miracle that these editions were composed before
-
modern revival of the Hebrew language. So when you go to online sources,
-
most sites will call this the modern Hebrew Bible. It's the Masoretic Text coupled
-
with the delach New Testament and bam you have the Hebraica. Now, unfortunately,
-
the Delitics New Testament has not been key too strong, So when I
-
talk about that, I will key it to strongs for you. So you
-
need to understand that what manuscript did Delits use to translate from well, he
-
used the Adido Regia. Of course. Now it's time for us to talk
-
about the complete Greek Bible, which Mabranatha Ministry calls the Hellenica. It is
-
the Septuagen. Now, it's very important that we talk about this. What
-
is the Septuagen. The Septuagen is sometimes referred to as the Greek Old Testament
-
or the Translation of the seventy and is often abbreviated as l x X.
-
It is the earliest extent Greek translation of the Hebrew Bible from the original Hebrew.
-
The full Greek title derives from the story recorded that it was commissioned and
-
seventy seventy Greek Hebrew scholars translated it. They took six from each of the
-
twelve tribes of Israel. Now no one understand this. There are currently over
-
two thousand classified Septus manuscripts arguing with it is basically pointless. A two thousand
-
of these, the earliest one predates the manuscript that we have. The earliest
-
manuscripts that we have for Hebrew, which once again is the Liningrad and the
-
Aleppo Cotises a thousand years before them. We have copies of the Siptuagen from
-
three hundred BC three hundred BC. Now you need to know this about that
-
portion of the Greek. Take very special note in Daniel. Most online versions
-
don't have the real Daniel. They have the fake Daniel. That is just
-
the Hebrew translated by the Hebrews scholar Theodosian. I will tell you when I'm
-
quoting from Daniel. I will give you the proper information, the proper translation.
-
You can get a hold of the proper translation as it is provided for
-
in the New Nets translation of the Septuagen which we have here. I strongly
-
suggest to you get one. It is the new English translation of the Setuagen.
-
It's also contained in the new translation of the Lexum septuagen. It also
-
has the proper manuscript of Daniel. Now let's get to the Addo Regia.
-
What is that? The eddal Regia? What is that translated? That means
-
the Royal Edition. And you're going to find out here in a minute why
-
it's royal. Is the third and most important edition of the Greek New Testament,
-
composed by Robert Estein. Now why is this so important? This was
-
done, These manuscripts were done from fifteen oh three to fifteen fifty nine.
-
It is the most important representatives of the Texas Receptists. Take note, the
-
Texas Receptist is not one manuscript. It is a group of manuscripts. This
-
one is the perfected one. Okay, the first generation of printed editions and
-
the Greek New Testament in history. The fifteen fifty one it's fourth edition used
-
exactly the same text as the third, without critical apparatus, but the text
-
is divided and numbered into verses for the first time in history. And the
-
printed Greek or the printed text of the Greek New Testament was used for the
-
Geneva Bible. So if you want to bounce any New Testament document off of
-
the truth, get a hands get your hands on the Geneva Bible. That's
-
what was used to translate the first Christian translation of the Bible. Because the
-
KJV, that's the government translation of the Bible, was done by the government.
-
The Geneva Bible is the first translation of the Church. It's the Church's
-
first translation of the Bible. So this is what makes it special. Now,
-
going beyond that, you need to know this that Stefanas. See his
-
other name is Stefanas. They call him two different names outside of his proper
-
name. This Stefani's edition of the fifteen fifty one. He plainly put into
-
its notes that he had two secret manuscripts. He refused to either show the
-
government or the church these two manuscripts. He labeled them as Iota Alpha and
-
Iota Final Sigma. You'll never know, and he refused to let either the
-
government or the church clergy get their hands on the manuscript to corrupt it.
-
It's where you get your chapters and verses from. It is the inspired word
-
of God. So now you have it. Now you have a complete apparatus
-
by which you can study the Bible, God's Holy Word in each hand.
-
One hand you've got the Hebraica. The other hand you've got the Hellenica,
-
and the data contained therein will absolutely blow your mind. Now, the online
-
resources that I use to study these manuscripts is called the Word program. But
-
I'm not going to go on at length about that. I'm just letting you
-
know which program I use. So from there. From there we need to
-
get into what topics, what mode of interpretation? What does Meronatha ministries?
-
How do we stand out from everybody else? A number one scenes, how
-
we are basically preparing people for the Perugia of Christ, the second coming of
-
Christ. The very first thing we need to do is talk about what is
-
our eschatological view. There are basically we'll talk about a few first and foremost
-
the things we are not. We do not hold to a historist eschatological view.
-
What is that The historist told that the Book of Daniel and the Book
-
of Revelation are basically timelines for the entire history. Now, most of them
-
say that these timelines are events from the first century or the Apostolic age to
-
present time. Basically this view has been abandoned because no one can agree on
-
well, what was the trumpets? Was that World War Two? Was that
-
the Napoleonic War? So basically no one is historist anymore. Now, next
-
we have the futurists eschatological view. They view that most of the prophecies in
-
Daniel and Revelation have not come true yet. They believe that it's said in
-
the future. Next you have the pretorist eschatological view. What is that,
-
Well, ladies and gentlemen, that is that's the approach that most, if
-
not all, of the prophecies and Daniel Revelation are in the past. Basically
-
they all all the prophecies were fulfilled in seventy a d. And the destruction
-
of Jerusalem. That of course is not what we believe. Now, there
-
are a few that are not total predtericist. They believe that we still have
-
the return of Christ. We are none of those. There are also those
-
who use the the symbolic eschatological view. It's all just symbology and none of
-
it matters. It's all just symbolic. It really doesn't. It's not literal.
-
So this is opposing a literal eschatological view. So I guess throwing that
-
in there you now you have have a little bit of a taste of where
-
we're going to have to go here in few minutes. What does this ministry
-
preach. We preach an isochronal eschatological view. What on earth is isochronal?
-
That usually gets people by surprise. They're usually like, wait a minute,
-
I don't even understand what that word is. Well, ladies and gentlemen,
-
the Bible is very clear. It is extremely clear on how time works.
-
It's isochronal. You might have heard this terminology history repeats. Some people say
-
history doesn't repeat, but it does rhyme that is true. When I'm going
-
to prove to you it's true right from God's own mouth. So this is
-
Ecclesiastes chapter one, verses nine and ten. That which has been is that
-
which will be, and that which has been done is that which will be
-
done. So there is nothing new under the sun. Is there anything of
-
which one might say, see this is new? Already it has existed for
-
ages which were before us. Ecclesiastes chapter nine, verse fifteen. That which
-
has already been and that which will be, has already been. For God
-
seeks what has passed by These two verses prove emphatically time is isochronal. Let's
-
do Isaiah chapter forty six, verses eight and ten or eight through ten.
-
Remember this and be assured. Recall it to mind, you transgressors, remember
-
the former things long past. For I am God, and there is no
-
other. I am God, and there is no one like me, declaring
-
the end from the beginning and from ancient times which have not been done,
-
saying MY purpose will be accomplished, and I will accomplish my good pleasure.
-
Right here in Isaiah chapter forty six, God loudly declares that he does things
-
over and over and over when he prophesies them. They are reoccurring events.
-
You all know this to be true, don't you. Now you have a
-
lot of eschatological teachers today they call this partial fulfillment of prophetic events. No,
-
that's a joke. That's calling God a liar. From Ecclesiastes and Isaiah,
-
how many times was the temple destroyed? Yes, ladies and gentlemen,
-
I was destroyed more than once, because that is an isochronal event. It's
-
isochronal. Once you understand this is how eschatology works. You can look before
-
to see what will be. And that's exactly what God said in the first
-
person tense. He was speaking in the first person tense. They're in Ecclesiastes.
-
That's what he is going to do. That's what he did do.
-
That's what is going to be done. So take note all those other forms
-
of eschatological views. We are none of them. So you have got a
-
whole lot to learn. Take for example, you all know that when Israel
-
was invaded by Sinakaru, what happened. An angel took out one hundred and
-
eighty five thousand Assyrians. Right, let's jump to the next time in that
-
isochronal event. Another time of that isochronal event was in seventy eight. Guess
-
what it was the Assyrian That's what I said, Assyrian, because the Roman
-
twelfth Legion was comprised of Assyrians. It was in what you call modern Turkey
-
right now. It was the Assyrian twelfth Roman Legion. It was completely eradicated.
-
And you all need to know that this is where that famous movie come
-
from, where the Roman standard, where the Roman Eagle was taken. Please
-
look this up. It's a historical fact. Who did it. Did an
-
angel do it? No, one of the rebels did it. One of
-
the Jewish leaders did it. So this is where history does not repeat exactly.
-
It rhymes through shadow and silhouette. What I'm telling you is true.
-
And if you didn't know that, you need to get excited, not be
-
disparaged about studying Bible prophecies over the last twenty years and all of a sudden
-
having to learn new things because as schatology's isochronal. We believe in isochronology because
-
that's what God says. When you realize that, oh, my goodness,
-
does it expound a whole lot of things that you can learn. So having
-
said that, all right, you also need to know what type of interpretation
-
we use. Okay, there are four basic types of interpretation of the scripture.
-
Now take note they're also called the four senses of Scripture, and they
-
are basically put together in a really neat Latin rhyme from the Middle Ages.
-
It goes as such. The literal teaches what God and our ancestors did.
-
The allegory is where our faith and belief is hid. The moral meaning gives
-
us the rule of daily life, and the anagogy shows us where we end
-
our strife. So that's a real complicated word there. Really, let's throw
-
that word away. It really means spiritual. That anagogy, that's what that
-
means. Basically means the spiritual or some people call it mystical translation. Let's
-
talk about these for a minute. So some people say that prophecy is literal,
-
and I really don't need to elaborate on that. You know what literal
-
means. Then people say that it's all allegory, connecting the events of the
-
Old Testament and the New Testament, particularly drawing allegorical connections between events in Christ's
-
life with the stories of the Old Testament. So it's just all allegory.
-
Number three, the moral interpretation is just the moral of the story. It's
-
just basically a bunch of acept fables. Next that one that used that great
-
big word anagogic. Okay, it means the spiritual or mystical. Why,
-
well, that explains the biblical events or matters of this world so that they
-
relate to the life to come. For instance, the Jordan River is interpreted
-
it is interpreted as the river of death, and by crossing it you enter
-
into the heavenly Canaan. So literally, the river Jordan means the river sticks.
-
And if you cross it, you're not literally crossing into Canaan, you're
-
entering into Heaven and the Promised Land. So this is the spiritual or mystical
-
interpretation. What are we? Are we any of that? No, of
-
course not, what are we? We're polycenic? What does that mean?
-
Did I take you by surprise? Because this is the first first time you've
-
ever heard a Bible teacher speak the truth. Polysemic means it means more than
-
one thing. That is exactly what is happening in the confines of the scripture.
-
We can we can go there and use one example from the most famous
-
prophetic book, of course, the Book of Revelation itself. Let's go there,
-
and let's take a look about what it talks about the Lord Jesus Christ.
-
Now take note that here it states in Revelation chapter five, and I
-
saw between the throne with the four living creatures and the elders, a lamb
-
standing as if it had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes,
-
which are the seven spirits of God sent into all the earth. He came
-
and took the book out of the right hand of him who sat on the
-
throne. When he had taken the book, the four living creatures and the
-
twenty four elders fell down before the lamb, each one holding a harp and
-
golden bones full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints. And
-
they sang a new song, saying, worthy are you to take the book
-
and break the seals? For you were slain and purchased for God. With
-
your blood from the men, every tribe and tongue and people in nation.
-
You have made them to be a kingdom and priest to our God, and
-
they will reign upon the earth. This absolutely proves that eschatology is polysemic,
-
and only upon a polysemic interpretation may be applied to the Bible, God's Holy
-
Word. Because here the lamb is most definitely literally the Lord Jesus Christ.
-
No one will debate that with you, Even your most staunch heretics will put
-
their tails between their legs and tell you, Yeah, the lamb being talked
-
about here is Jesus Christ. So I just proved you. I just blasted
-
all of your preconceived notions right off their hinges. The proper interpretation of scripture
-
is polysemic. That's what it is. It's polysemic. So that probably once
-
again has rattled your cage. And I understand that. I understand that these
-
things can be quite overwhelming. Some other things we need to talk about.
-
This ministry covers celestial semiology. Please look that up for yourself. What does
-
semiology mean. It means the study of symbols. Celestial means what's over your
-
head celestial things is celestial objects. Take note the Bible repeatedly states this.
-
Take note that in Micah chapter five, verse one, that is the sign
-
of the strike, that is the constellation of Orion. Yes, it is
-
it most definitely and is emphatically the sign of the strike. Based on Micah
-
chapter five, verse one, that verse says that the lion of Judah will
-
receive a strike upon the cheek. Take a look at what the constellations or
-
Ryan is. Or Ryan is supposed to be holding a club, and he
-
has a lion's club in his hand, and he's striking the lions cub on
-
the cheek. Look it up. I know you've never heard this before.
-
Most of you have probably heard a lot of Judaists teach about the Masarrath.
-
Well, I just told you something that they never told you. I'm going
-
to tell you why the sign of the strike is so important, because that's
-
the point in the heaven where the equator and the ecliptic are the farthest apart.
-
You're shutting your shocked. Well what does that mean? Well, you
-
know that biblical phrase that says one end of the heavens from the other.
-
You need to look these things up and learn them for yourself. What's the
-
equator? What's the eclipse? I don't have time to do that. Now,
-
let's go to the other end of the heavens. That is according to
-
Second Thesalonians, Chapter two, verses six and seven, that's the sign of
-
the restrainer. Like, what, why is that so important? The sign
-
of the restrainer? Also, is that magical point that's on the opposite side
-
of the heavens where the ecliptic is the farthest away from the equator. You
-
need to know that is existentially important to Bible prophecy and millennial mechanics. Well,
-
I mean by millennial mechanics. You might want to check out my book
-
that I've published, Tara Rectus. It will explain to you exactly what the
-
configuration or our cosmology will be in the millennial reign of Christ. So take
-
note, you have two signs in the heavens that no one's ever told you
-
about, even though they were, you know, specialized, these these ministries
-
do. One of the big big things that were around us of late was
-
the you know, the Revelation twelve sign. Well, if they were talking
-
to you about celestial semiology and they didn't tell you about the two most important
-
signs in the heavens being the sign of the strike or Ryan and the sign
-
of the restrainer, that being Ophiucus. Get excited. You've got a lot
-
to learn because the Bible has a lot to teach. Lists, move on,
-
we have more things to talk about. We also discuss biblical mechanics.
-
What is biblical mechanics. I've already stated that the Bible, God's Holy Word
-
is a binary source code and it's perfect. Now take note, we have
-
received sixty six books of the Bible. Now you're all getting upset because wait
-
a minute, the septulogen has more books. Now we're talking about the Bible
-
houts put together mechanically into our final form of sixty six books. Take note
-
that there is a website that I have constructed called Biblical Mechanics dot WordPress dot
-
com. It will give you the things I'm getting ready to talk about.
-
You know that the Lord Jesus Christ was wrapped in swaddling clothes. One of
-
the very first things we do is practice wrapping the Old Testament around the New
-
Testament chapters. It's called the chapter rap. Why do we do this?
-
When you take a look at the chart and line up the chapters that rap
-
against each other, guess what. You study those chapters, and those chapters
-
will shed light on each other. It is a mode. It is a
-
methodology of Bible study. It's a very intriguing. It's a very addictive way
-
to get people to start studying God's word. It will quickly get people out
-
of their bad habits of watching Monday night football, let's say, or gambling.
-
It's a way to mechanically study the Bible, and it's quite wondrous.
-
Indeed, we also have the Synoptic rap. What is that? You can
-
get additional chapters to this rap because I have devised away. You take the
-
four Synoptic Gospels, take the New Testament chapters and wrap them around that I've
-
probably just blown a lot of your minds. But you need to know this
-
upfront because in upcoming podcast I will talk about these things and you need to
-
be able to reference them. Take this down. It is Biblical Mechanics dot
-
WordPress dot com, Freesight a lot of these other things. If you'd like
-
to read some of my work, I also have MM twelve sixty dot WordPress
-
dot com, MM one two six zero dot WordPress dot com. Now we
-
are going to talk about another mechanical thing that we do. Well, perhaps
-
it would be better if I talked a little bit more about the biblical Biblical
-
mechanics aspect. Also, you need to know that we use the strongs numbers
-
in biblical mechanics. That is to say, there is a seven hundred and
-
twenty chapter in the Bible. If you go to the strongs seven twenty any
-
either the Hebrew and the Greek, you can do prophetic studies on those numbers.
-
So remember what the strongs does. It goes through alphabetically the Hebrew language
-
and the Greek language, and it assigns a number in alphabet and alphabetical order
-
as they appear in the Hebrew and the Greek. You can widely use this
-
for biblical mechanics. Now we're going to talk about another thing that this ministry
-
partakes in, and that is alphanumerics. Is alphanumerics, well, it means
-
that every letter has a numerical value. I'm going to tell you this up
-
front. Many people say this is witchcraft, they call it gomatria. No
-
it's not. It's not witchcraft. It's how you get the number six six
-
six. So the Bible, God's Holy Word repeatedly uses alphanumerics. That's how
-
you get six sixty six. That is just three Greek letters. And I'm
-
going to tell you why most American Christians do not know. There was no
-
such thing as Arabic numerals Ladies and gentlemen, Arabic numerals of one, two,
-
and three. Those were invented in the seven hundreds by Fibonacci. I'm
-
not lying to you. So the Masoretic Text and the coin of the of
-
Greek text, they don't have ones in zero s alpha numerics. I'm going
-
to prove this to you because when I teach Hebrew, I teach out of
-
a practical grammar of classical Hebrew. The second Edition by J. Wingreen let
-
me say that again. When I teach Hebrew, this is what I teach
-
it out of. You need to get yourself a copy. On page one.
-
This is page one. It has a graph that has four columns in
-
it. Let me read the Hebrew alphabet. The Hebrew alphabet consists of twenty
-
two consonants. They are The first column shows the Hebrew letter, the second
-
column shows the name of that letter, the third column presents its transliteration,
-
and the fourth column guess what is marked its numerical value. This is page
-
one. You cannot learn Biblical Hebrew with that first learning the numerical value of
-
each of the letters, because it does not have ones and twos and threes.
-
The Bible, God's Holy Word always only practiced alphanumerics. It never had
-
Arabic numerals in it. Ever. Now that usually takes people by complete surprise,
-
So know more about that. Moving on, you need to know that
-
this ministry we practice fulfillment theology. We are not Zionists. What does that
-
mean? This is usually a shock to people's system. Nearly every church in
-
the West has been infected with Zionism, and that is the truth. The
-
fact of the matter is is that Romans chapters nine, ten, and eleven
-
plainly state that the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ is Israel. It is
-
Israel. You are Israel. Yes, you are literally speaking. That's what
-
all three chapters state, and they state at point blank. Now that's usually
-
quite a shock to people's system. Let me read a couple of verses from
-
Romans chapter two. This is true. This is from the Bible, God's
-
holy word. For he is not a Jew who is won outwardly, nor
-
is circumcision that which is outward in the flesh. But he is a Jew
-
who is won inwardly. And circumcision is that which is of the heart by
-
the spirit, not by the letter. And his praise is not from men,
-
but from God. Period. It's that thing, and it's no other
-
thing. Praise be the Lord Jesus Christ and our Father in Heaven. So
-
you need to take a note. You need to get familiar with the Greek
-
word gene forty one thirty eight in your strong concordance. It's plema plema.
-
It means to fulfill. This is the Greek word used in Romans chapter eleven,
-
verses twelve and twenty five. Look, ladies and gentlemen, why is
-
this important? You need to know that there is a huge futurist sect.
-
Okay, So they believe that all the prophecies in Daniel and Revelation our future.
-
We too believe that they are future. But they're isochronal, they're reoccurring,
-
okay, And they are called dispensationalist. And dispensationalism was invented to present
-
the Jews with the way of salvation outside of the Lord Jesus Christ. Does
-
that upset you because it upsets me. You need to understand. This is
-
why the pre tribulation of rapture was invented. This is what they actually say.
-
They say that we will be raptured, We Christians will be raptured before
-
the tribulation. During the tribulation God the Father. Remember we read that in
-
Revelation chapter five, he who setteth upon the throne, whom the land took
-
the scroll from. They say that he who setteth upon the throne makes a
-
special deal with the Jews for the three and a half year tribulation and they
-
don't have to accept Jesus. They get a get out of jail free card.
-
I'm going to tell you what that is. That's heresy. No jew
-
is ever going to be saved outside of the Lord Jesus Christ. I'm going
-
to say the same thing about Russians. No Russian is ever going to get
-
saved outside of the Lord Jesus Christ. No African is ever going to be
-
saved outside of the Lord Jesus Christ. And you can be sure to take
-
this to the bank. No American will ever be saved without the Lord Jesus
-
Christ. So you need to know. That's why they invented dispensationalism. Moving
-
on, you also need to know about our geology, about our cosmology.
-
Ladies and gentlemen. This ministry practices and holds to truth. That truth is
-
also geological. That is to say, if you have been misled down a
-
road where the earth is flat, you need to go somewhere else and not
-
waste your time and my time, and more importantly, don't waste God's time
-
running around preaching that the earth is flat. Just go somewhere else. Another
-
thing that I'm going to have to talk about is usually the litmus test for
-
those people who claim to believe the Bible God's Holy Word is now remember the
-
Big Three, the only three, because it's just a trinity. The Bible
-
is inspired, inspired, it is in errit and it is infallible. This
-
is a litmus test. Women are not permitted to be ordained. Well,
-
I say the best for last, didn't I. If you're a preacher and
-
you're claiming that the Bible's true, yet let you allow women clergy. You're
-
denying that the Bible is God's Holy Word because it states emphatically in First Corinthians
-
Chapter eleven, verses two through sixteen, First Corinthians Chapter fourteen, verses thirty
-
four and thirty five, First Timothy Chapter two, verses eleven through fourteen,
-
First Timothy Chapter three, verses one through seven, and Titus Chapter one,
-
verses five through nine, that women may not be in authority, they may
-
not be clergy. Does that mean they can't be Sunday school teachers? No,
-
Sunday school teacher is not clergy. Now we could run down the long
-
list. This is the litmus test as to whether you believe the Bible is
-
God's Holy Word or not. It really is. And if you don't believe
-
it to be the Bible God's Holy Word, please don't waste your time because
-
you're going to try to come to Marinautha ministries and argue with people. If
-
what's coming out of your mouth cannot be proved with the Bible God's Holy Word,
-
it in effect does not exist. You're making it up for your own
-
pleasure. You're using is of Jesus. You have what you want, what
-
pleasures you want, fulfilled, what you want to do, and you try
-
to twist scripture and find out versus that support what you believe. That's isa
-
Jesus. We conduct only exa Jesus here. We tell you exactly what the
-
Bible, God's Holy Word says. We'll tell it to you in the Hebrew
-
and the Greek. Don't worry about using a garbish English translation, because that's
-
not what we do here. Remember when I quote to you the Greek,
-
I don't care if the KJV says, if it's not in the Adido Regia
-
manuscript, it's a lie. So we have talked about a lot of highly
-
complicated things that you all need to know these things up front. I don't
-
want people coming here arguing for a you know, dispensationalism, Just don't it's
-
heresy. The Jews will accept Jesus or they be damned. Same for Italians
-
Germans. If you don't accept the Lord Jesus Christ, you'll be damned.
-
And maybe that's another thing we should talk about. Hell is eternal. Hell
-
is eternal. Yes, the Bible, God's Holy Word says that the smoke
-
of your torment will go up forever endeavor. There is no temporary punishment in
-
purgatory. Purgatory is made up. That's not real. There's one other thing
-
we need to talk about, now that it has come to my mind.
-
Where are we out in the gifts of the spirit. There are two types
-
of people. There are secessionist They believe that the gifts of the spirit stopped
-
in the first century, second century sometimes like that. They call it the
-
Apostolic age. They say it ended there. That's what secessionists say. Then
-
there are continuationists. That's what we are. We believe. No, No,
-
I hate saying that. I know. I don't believe. That's lame.
-
I know the Bible, God's Holy Word. You don't have to try
-
to explain to me what you think it says. I know what it says.
-
So I know that the gifts of the spirit are still in operation to
-
this very day. Yes, yes they are. Does that mean this ministry
-
is charismatic, so we practice babbling. No, there is no babbling because
-
the Bible, God's Holy Word says that it is languages, it's languages.
-
It proves this in the instance where other people were in the presence of those
-
speaking in tongues and they said, hey, we hear them in our own
-
language. That's what speaking in tongues is. It's not going, it's not
-
babbling. It is a literal language spoken on planet Earth. So if you
-
have any further questions, you just need to contact Maranatha Ministries. The reason
-
why I did this introductory episode was to make sure that the people coming here
-
did not waste their time. If they were staunch KJV only rapturist, if
-
they were staunch reformed predtterist, it just nips you in the bud. We
-
follow the Bible God's Holy Word here. We don't argue. You're not going
-
to provide any entertainment to the members of Maranatha Ministry coming here writing paragraph long
-
copy and paste comments arguing about the pre tribulational rapture or the simple fact that
-
you're a heretic. You say that the millennial reign of Christ is figurative and
-
we're in the millennial reign of Christ right now. No, no, that
-
makes you a heretic. Christ is coming back and he will most certainly rule
-
and reign on this planet for a thousand years. Yes, he's going to
-
and you're going to experience it, by the way, So that's why I
-
did this. I'm going to close with prayer, and I'm going to tell
-
you something that is probably going to be a shock to your system. When
-
the Lord Jesus Christ started the Lord's Prayer, he said our He didn't mean
-
yours and mine, ladies and gentlemen. He started the Lord's prayer our father.
-
He meant himself and you. So I'm getting ready to say the Lord's
-
prayer. And when I say our father, I mean Jesus's father, and
-
my father and your father. Now I'm going to push you to remember what
-
I just read a few minutes ago in Revelation chapter five. It's very distinct
-
that means, yes, ladies and gentlemen, we are trinitarians. Very important
-
that we talk about this before the end of the episode, because it is
-
plain and to the text in Revelation chapter five that Jesus Christ did one in
-
verse seven, and he came and took the book out of the right hand,
-
and of him who satteth, or him who sat on the throne.
-
There is God, the Father, God, the Son, God, the
-
Holy Spirit. But you need to know before I say the Lord's prayer.
-
Our means Jesus and ours. It's our Father. This is how you get
-
your inheritance. If you can, please pray with me our Father, who
-
are in heaven. Hallowed be thy name, Thy Kingdom, Come, and
-
Thy will be done on earth as it is in Heaven. Give us this
-
day our daily bread, and forgive us our trust passes, as we forgive
-
those who have truspassed against us. And lead us not unto temptation, but
-
deliver us from evil. For Thine is the Kingdom and the Power and the
-
Glory forever. Amen. Last, but not least, you need to know
-
this. This is my closing comments. This ministry practices holiness. We do
-
not believe. We absolutely reject Antinomian free grace. The Lord Jesus Christ can
-
save you from your sins. I have special insight to this because I volunteered
-
at Shepherd Community homeless shelter, and I saw many alcoholics get saved from their
-
alcoholism. I saw many prostitutes get saved from their prostitution. I saw many
-
heroin addicts saved from their heroin addiction. That is to say, these people
-
stop drinking, they stop selling their bodies for sex, and they stop taking
-
heroin. The Lord Jesus Christ save them from their sins. Antinomian. It
-
comes from the word which means against the law. These people believe you don't
-
have to follow the Ten Commandments in order to enter heaven. They also believe
-
you don't have to follow the beatitudes. They call it's free grace. It's
-
just also called believism. You just believe in Jesus and you can whore and
-
pillage and rape and murder your way into the Kingdom of heaven. That is
-
a lie. Here at Maranatha Ministries. You need to know that we hold
-
to the biblical doctrine of holiness. Yes we do, that's what we hold
-
to. Now take note, I'm gonna read first John chapter three, verse
-
ten. By this, the children of God and the children are devil are
-
obvious. Anyone who does not practice righteousness is not of God. Nor the
-
one who does not love his brother. Period. If you're a liar,
-
You're not a Christian. You're a liar. If you steal, you're not
-
a Christian, You're a thief. If you are committing adultery against your spouse,
-
you're not a Christian. You're an adulterer, which leads up to another
-
point we need to talk about. You can consider this a ps to the
-
episode. This is the PostScript. We believe, no, we know,
-
we know. The truth is this marriage is only between one man and one
-
woman period, in indefinite fidelity, one to another. Just that. For
-
this, I'll let you know. That's how this ministry is based. I've
-
been married to my wife for thirty two years. We have six children.
-
We only have children together because we have we have done in definite fidelity.
-
I don't know any other woman, and my wife knows no other man in
-
the biblical sense. If you are excited about further broadcast, I am thankful.
-
If I've made you gnash your teeth, please go get entertained, because
-
here you're only going to be edified. This ministry will only indefinitely consistently edify
-
you by instructing you as to what the Bible, God's Holy Word actually says.
-
Until next time, ladies and gentlemen, God bless, godspeed. Thank
-
you for listening to Marinath the Ministries with Matthew Miller. I appreciate you tuning

God's Holy Word. I will make it a lamp unto my feet and a

that I might not sin against God? An act pas
