Declaring war on the New World Order.
TruthRadioShow.com And welcome to the Dan Badani Show on TruthRadioShow.com And welcome to the book of Ephesians In our in-depth, comprehensive study of the Bible We are now on to chapter 3, so if you have not seen chapters 1 and 2, I would pause right here and go back and watch them in our playlist.
It's very important to understand the Bible in context.
We preach that all the time, as you can see here, in our Bible study approach.
First of all, we pray for wisdom and understanding, so let's do that today.
Yeshua, Jesus, we come before you and thank you so much for everything you do for us.
And we ask you to forgive us of our sins and trespasses that we may have committed today, Lord.
And dip our garments in your precious blood and make us whole and clean before the Father.
And Father, we come before you and ask you for your divine intervention today.
To help us understand and learn the book of Ephesians chapter 3 and have your Holy Spirit write the word, your word, upon our hearts today.
And we ask you to heal anybody that's going through any kind of pain, like mental, physically, spiritually, emotionally, and protect us all from the forces of evil.
And I pray for this broadcast, I pray for everybody watching, that we all, myself included, that we all can learn your word.
And the full context that you give us and learn all the mysteries that you have to offer us and just amazing stuff.
We love you so much Heavenly Father with all our heart and soul.
Amen.
So we read description context.
Context is key.
That's why we do one chapter at a time.
And yes, we'll refer to maybe another book or so, but we don't like to frog hop all over the Bible.
We like to deliver the Bible in its context.
And let description interpret scripture.
So like I say all the time, if you're looking for somebody to read the Bible, I'll just read it to you, which would be, take chapter 3 here, which is only, let me see, 21 verses.
Probably take a minute to read that.
But if you're looking for somebody to do that, you got the wrong place.
We study the Bible here, we learn what words are, and however long it takes to do this.
So, we'll be in chapter 3.
Myself included, all of us, we want a full understanding of what the Bible is speaking of.
So, open up to ShakenWakeRadio.com, there's an audio edition, so they carry our show here.
So, I would ask you guys to please open up your own Bible.
Pause it here, go get your Bible, and open up to Chapter 3 of the Book of Ephesians.
And this is the chapter of Spiritual Warfare by Paul.
So, and of course the book, I mean, sorry, it's a letter to the Ephesians.
And so, this is lots about Spiritual Warfare.
I love this book.
For this cause, I, Paul, the prisoner of Jesus Christ for you Gentiles.
And when he says prisoner, it does mean he's being held against his will.
And it's in a good sense.
It's not saying it in a bad way, so I just want to point that out.
And if you have heard the dispensation of grace of God, which is given me out toward you, So dispensation, the Bible is not the same dispensationalism that, you know, from John Nelson Darby and Cyrus Schofield, them false teachers.
That's not the same dispensation as what the Bible says.
It's an exemption from the rule of obligation, or obligation.
So, in other words, because through the laws, you know, in the Old Testament, through the laws, you can't be saved through the laws.
And you're condemned by the law if you try.
The dispensation gives you, the biblical way, is gives you grace.
That you may be saved by grace, not by the law.
But again, we have to emphasize, it doesn't mean the laws are abolished.
It doesn't mean we don't follow the laws no more.
Jesus clearly says not to be lawless.
The lawless will not enter the kingdom of God.
And no, yes, I'm sorry.
And you have to emphasize, yes, grace saves you, not the law.
If you go by the law, you're going to be condemned by the law.
That's what Paul says.
But Paul never says that the laws are abolished.
I have to point that out every single time.
Because of modern-day dispensationalism, which is a false dispensation of what the Bible teaches.
So, how that by revelation, which is prophecy, he made known unto me the mystery, as I wrote before in a few words.
And whereby, when you read, you may understand my knowledge and the mystery of Christ.
So, Paul's just given his testimony, his knowledge that he's learned from Jesus himself.
And a lot of people, you know, Paul-bashers, I call them.
You know, they, for some reason, most of these religions hate Paul with a passion, because Paul was very effective.
That's why.
Paul told you how it is.
He doesn't beat around the bush.
He tells you exactly how it is.
That's it.
And a lot of people don't like that.
So you have these false religions like the Essenes, Gnostics, the Kabbalah.
They all hate Paul with a passion.
And they'll make up lies about Paul.
The Jesuits, they do.
All these religions make up lies about Paul.
So I would stay clear of those people.
And they say, oh Paul had no contact with Jesus.
Yeah, he did.
Jesus appeared to him in the Spirit.
He's the one to transform from him from Saul to Paul.
And as you should know that Saul at the time was a murderer of people who followed Christ.
Christ made him blind for temporary and then he seen him in the Spirit.
So whereby when you read you may understand my knowledge and the mystery of Christ.
And Mystery of Christ is just like unlimited knowledge.
It is insanely good.
In verse 5 here.
5 here, which in other ages was not made known unto the sons of men.
It is now revealed unto his holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit.
So, yeah, obviously at the time of Paul here, his age is there, which before Christ, it was not made known to men.
But it's now revealed through Jesus unto his holy apostles and the prophets by the Spirit.
So the prophets that came before the apostles, they prophesied about the coming of the Messiah, of Jesus.
Jesus himself appeared to these prophets and prophesied about his coming.
He was the Lord of Spirits at the time.
And as you should know, Jesus has been around since, we don't even know, long before creation.
He was only manifesting the flesh.
He didn't just appear into existence through Mary.
He manifested the flesh to be born on the earth here to die for our sins.
So continue on verse 6, that the Gentiles should be fellow ears, in other words, co-ears of the throne.
I'm sorry, the kingdom, sorry.
And so again, the Gentiles should be fellow ears and of the same body, which is the body of Christ as the church.
We the people believe in Jesus, it's strict, right?
And partakers of His promise in Christ by the gospel, and in which His promise, promises of we believers, Gentiles and Jews, if you're believing in Jesus Christ, we're heirs to His kingdom.
We are adopted children of God, we are grafted into God's spiritual Israel.
So, wherefore, whereof, I'm sorry, I was made a minister according to the gift of grace of God, given unto me by the effectual working of his power.
So, yes, Jesus himself made Paul a minister.
A minister is the leader of God.
So, yeah, that basically teaches the word of God.
I'm a minister myself.
So, unto me, who am lest I am the least of all saints.
So this is Paul being humble.
And I don't know where these people get off bashing Paul saying he's trying to be like Jesus, he's trying to be better than Jesus or anything like that, and he's trying to preach his own gospel.
No, that's not the case.
Paul is very humble.
He's very firm.
Very, like, straight to the point, like I said.
But he's very humble because he's saying right here, Because I'm less than all the saints.
Who are the saints?
It's us.
The believers are the saints.
You don't need to be deemed a saint by a church.
Like a religion, I should say.
Anybody who believes in Jesus is a saint.
You're grafted into God's Israel.
You're an adopted child of God now.
And you are a saint.
Plain and simple.
So, Paul humbling himself here.
On to me, he says, who am I?
Who am me?
He says, I'm less than the least of all saints.
So you take all the saints he's saying and the least of them, I'm less than them.
Is the grace given that I should preach among the Gentiles in unsearchable riches of grace?
Unsearchable means endless.
Endless riches of grace.
We can spend a whole lifetime learning the knowledge of Christ and still we wouldn't know it at all.
This is Paul being humble.
So anybody ever tell you, you know, Paul's this or that.
You know, he wants to be, it's all about him.
No, this is not all about him.
He's sitting there saying, of all the saints, the least one, the least of all the saints, I'm less than them.
If that's not humble, I don't know what is.
So next time somebody says that, tell them to go to Ephesians chapter 3, verse 8.
And to make all men see what is fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning of the world has been hid in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ.
So this is a, there's a lot in this, Professor, yeah.
It's going back to the beginning.
So, with the fellowship of the mystery, right?
Which is us learning mysteries and all that stuff.
And which is from the beginning of the world.
Creation, right?
Has been hid by God.
And he revealed it all to Jesus.
It says, the beginning has been hid by God, right?
Who created all things by Jesus Christ.
So, another confirmation here that Jesus was around long before creation.
Jesus always existed.
So it's a lot of context there.
You know, people, that's why I tell people all the time, like, you need to read Jesus in context and take your time and absorb it.
I was just watching some social media thing and some woman You know, she puts it like she's an ex-Christian and she's read the Bible for five years and blah blah blah.
Yeah, it's like there's a difference between reading the Bible and knowing the Bible.
Because normally, what do people do?
Everybody's just about to read the Bible.
So, I hate when these people brag about that.
Everybody's read the Bible.
So, I guess they must feel special because, oh, I read the Bible.
And you're sitting there bashing it.
I read it and it's all garbage.
Really, you didn't read it.
You read it, but you don't read it.
If that makes sense to you.
You need to read in context, you need to understand it.
Because normally, people like that would read, just say it's chapter half.
They'd read through this, and take them about maybe a minute or two.
What do you get out of that, when you do that?
This is not a novel, this is not a school book, or a story, or a newspaper.
What do you get out of that?
What did you learn out of that?
Do not.
And you go to these people all the time, and they're Bible scholars.
Oh, I read the Bible.
I'm not saying they didn't.
But just because you read it doesn't mean you know it.
So you need to understand what the words mean and everything in context. - Yes.
And the mysteries of the Word of God.
Again, who created all things by Jesus Christ.
To the intent that now unto all principalities and powers and heavenly places might be known by the church the manifold wisdom of God.
The church is what?
Us, the people.
We may be known by it.
So, if you want to know principalities, we just did a Spiritual Warfare Friday on angels and demons.
Me and Trey Harris.
But, yeah.
The Principalities and Powers, in some of the slides I made here.
Principality, Angel, is also known as Ruler or Archangel.
That protects and guides institutions, nations, and groups of people, such as the church, which is us.
They are also in charge of leading bands of angels and making sure they fulfill their divine ministry.
And Powers, the Power Angel, right?
So, which is Michael the Archangel.
Michael is both a Principality and a Power Angel.
Because he's a Restrainer.
and harm.
The term comes from Latin word which means power.
So, which is Michael the Archangel.
Michael is both principality and a power angel.
Because he's a restrainer, as revealed in 2 Thessalonians chapter 2.
So you've got to understand what these angels, a lot of these angels have multiple gifts and powers, right?
Like generally, Prince of Pally would have that and some, like Michael, would have some of these powers.
And some of the angels, different angels, share some of the same powers as others.
As we explained in that video we did.
So it's very important to understand what these things are and we go over these all the time and the virtues and all that stuff and Archangels and which Michael was Archangel you know I mean and uh amazing stuff and if you want these uh slides guys uh they're on my website well I mean my Facebook I should say I put them up there if you go into the albums Dambadandi Live you go to the albums and you'll find uh Angels and Demons there and it has all the Descriptions of each angel.
Well, not all of them though.
There's too many of them to list.
But the main angels and also the main demons.
So you know your enemy.
So it's just the main stuff.
This one right here, just like the Dominions.
These are angels who just... They control the movement of celestial objects.
Which is planets and all that.
Amazing stuff!
It gives you a whole new outlook when you go outside and look at the stars at night.
So, returning here, so again, chapter 3, verse 10, "...to the principalities, and the powers in heavenly places, might be known by the church as the manifold wisdom of God." This is the wisdom of God here.
To know what a principality is, to know what a power is.
And in heavenly places, those are the heavens.
According to the eternal purpose, which is P-purpose, in Jesus Christ our Lord.
So he's saying this is God's purpose, Jesus' purpose.
And whom we have boldness in access with confidence by faith of Him.
So we have access to this eternal purpose.
Because we're part of his purpose.
His plan.
So he's saying don't... Don't be afraid of it.
Because normally when you faint you're afraid of something or something like that.
Especially in the context back then.
So... Don't be afraid of it.
Because I understand this spiritual stuff sometimes, I mean... It's not for the weak-hearted.
Because you deal with some nasty demons, some nasty fallen angels, things like that, right?
Principalities, powers and all that.
And also the good ones, so of course, you know what I mean?
But... A lot of spiritual stuff that a lot of people can't take for some reason.
In other words, don't be afraid of it.
Don't be afraid of these tribulations.
For you.
Because tribulations, what?
Are trials.
Because he's saying, these tribulations that are set for you, right?
These trials.
Don't be afraid of them, because it's for your glory.
And people say, how can a tribulation be for glory?
I go through hell.
Yeah!
God puts you through tests and trials.
And no, it's not fun, it's not anything like that when you're going through them.
But when the tests and trials are over, what happens after that?
You become stronger, all your attributes go through the roof, your faith.
Get stronger.
Your knowledge for God gets stronger.
Your love for God gets stronger.
And you become a stronger person in general.
So again, Paul's saying, what I desire that you don't faint at my tribulations for you.
Which is your glory.
For this cause I bow my knees unto the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.
And so do I. So do we all.
Of whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named.
That's amazing.
So for that, I'm sorry, that he would grant you according to his riches of his glory.
So what's the riches of his glory?
His kingdom, his, you know, the knowledge, the power, all that stuff.
It's amazing.
To be strengthened with might by his spirit in the man.
The inner man is inside you, right?
The Spirit is what?
The Holy Spirit inside of you.
Again, that He would grant you according to the riches of His glory.
So, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with might by His Spirit in the inner man.
That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith.
That you being rooted and grounded in love.
So I understand too, that Christ might dwell in your hearts by faith, right?
So, like I said, I think in the last chapter I said, you gotta believe.
It can't just be empty vain words.
And I'll use another example here, I think I used it in the last video too.
But when, having faith, because Jesus, like I said, again I'm going to repeat myself, I apologize, but when Jesus was walking through the streets, right, there was that one woman, I bring this up all the time to explain it, she wanted to touch his tassel, you know, just actually meet Jesus to be made clean again.
She couldn't get to him because of all the people around him, so she like fought through the crowd, she's saying to herself, like, if I can only touch his tassel, you know, his garment, I'll be made clean again." And when she did that, Jesus felt the countenance to leave him.
He stopped, looked at her, and said, you know, looked around, said, who touched me?
She goes, I did.
And, um, the countenance is like the power, right?
That left him to heal, and it healed her.
And, you know, it took him by surprise.
And, uh, so, uh, he told her right out, it wasn't, you know, my garment that made you clean.
It was your faith that did it.
Your faith in me made you clean.
So when it says that Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith, you really need to believe it.
You need to have faith.
Faith is believing.
With all your heart and soul.
That's what faith is.
So you can't say, oh Christ is in my heart.
It would be vain and empty words, right?
But you need to believe that too.
Like people say all the time, oh I asked God to show me something and he never did.
I don't believe until I see it.
Stuff like that, right?
How'd you ask God?
Oh, God just showed me something?
No, you need to believe it.
You need to have faith in it.
Like when people confront demons.
You can't just, uh, blast out, oh, in the name of Jesus, leave.
It has to be driven from your heart.
To have faith in it.
Faith in that name.
It's not the words speaking out of your mouth.
It's the faith behind it.
That's the power.
So, that Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith.
Very important to understand that.
That you, being rooted and grounded in love, right?
In other words, being structurally sound by love.
And now this is, you know, unfortunately the New Age is taking this, uh, they misuse this term, grounded.
You know what I mean?
It's like, they take it to another level, it's not there.
But grounded spiritually in the Bible, as being, like, anchored, so to speak.
That you're protected and anchored in love, in God, right?
Because God is love.
And may be able to comprehend with all the saints, with all saints, what is the breadth, and the length, and the depth, and the height.
And to know the love of Christ, which passions and knowledge, passes knowledge, I'm sorry, that you might be filled with all the filliness of God.
So you may be able to comprehend with all the saints, right?
So, a carnal mind can't comprehend this kind of stuff, the mysteries of God and all that stuff that White Ball was saying, right?
And they can barely comprehend the spirits we just talked about, the angels, and all this spiritual warfare.
So, we need our spiritual intellect to do that.
To be able to comprehend with all the saints.
That's all of us, right?
Which is bread in length and depth and height.
Basically to understand it.
To know everything about it, that's what he's saying.
And to know the love of Christ.
So, cause you're... Really comprehend what the love of Christ is.
Imagine that you're hanging on a cross, from your own creation.
That you can literally, just like in a blink of an eye or something.
Destroy it in a second.
He could have summoned legions of angels to come down and destroy the entire Roman and Jewish people.
He could have done that easily, by himself.
But he sat there and endured his own creation, killing them.
That's the love of Christ.
Which passes knowledge that you might be filled with all the fullness of God.
That's amazing.
So, really visualize that for me, alright?
Now unto Him, we talk about Jesus, right?
Who's able to exceed abundantly above all that we ask or think.
So, all that you ask and all you think, He does above and beyond that.
According to the power that works in us, the Holy Spirit.
Unto Him be glory in the church by Jesus Christ.
Church is us, right?
He's glorying to us, because we're the body of Christ, the church.
Not a built-in religion, us, the followers of Jesus.
We are the church.
We are the church, we are the saints, we're grafted unto God's Israel, we are adopted children of God, and heirs to the kingdom of God.
Amazing, isn't it?
All that stuff you get just by believing in Jesus Christ.
That's amazing.
And probably more, right?
But unto Him be the glory in the church by Jesus Christ, throughout all ages.
It wasn't just for His time or time before, like that all ages thing.
World without end, amen.
And yes, a lot of people don't understand.
This world is not going to end.
There's going to be no destruction of the earth completely.
Yes, God's got to come back and cleanse this world of fire.
And form a new heaven and a new earth.
But it's not going to be just, you know, completely wiped out.
And I want to point that out too because you got NASA and all these people out there.
All they want to know is a meteorite or comet or asteroid that could destroy the entire world and wipe us out completely.
No, that will never happen and I say that with a firmness.
Because that's not God's plan.
God would never allow something like that to happen.
Now yes, in the end times we're going to have some difficult proportions stuff.
But fire is completely destroying this world, no.
God's going to cleanse this world by fire.
And form a new heaven and a new earth.
So don't let those people on TV with the fear mongering.
And NASA does that most of the time just to keep the funding coming in.
That's all it is.
All these people with their bold, stupid predictions.
If it doesn't match the Bible, then it's dumb.
Plain and simple.
And it's not going to happen.
God will not allow nuclear annihilation.
I'm not saying nuclear bombs are not going to strike or anything like that.
But this world would never be nuclear annihilated.
God's got this world's plans in.
The way He has us set.
