Declaring war on the New World Order.
truthradioshow.com And welcome to the Dan Bedani Show on truthradioshow.com and welcome back to the Book of Collegians our in-depth comprehensive study of the Bible And we are on to the last chapter, chapter 4, before we move to 1 Thessalonians.
So if you missed chapters 1 through 3 in Collisions here, please stop and go back and watch those three chapters.
Very important that we understand this Bible study approach we do at every video.
And again, we do one chapter at a time, and we pray for wisdom and understanding.
So let's do that right now.
Join me in prayer, please.
And very important to do this, because we need the guidance of the Holy Spirit to really understand the spiritual applications of the Scriptures.
Something you cannot learn in seminary school, something that can't be taught by a professor or a scholar, or a priest or a pastor, whatever the case.
But only by the Holy Spirit.
So, Jesus, Yeshua, Messiah, we love you so much with all our heart and soul.
And just thank you for everything you do for us, done for us, and continue to do for us.
To represent us, to enter the Kingdom of God, that anybody that believes in you shall have everlasting life.
And we ask you to forgive us all individually of the sins that we may have committed today.
Any trespasses, abominations, or transgressions.
We ask you, Lord, to please forgive us once again.
And have mercy on us, Lord, because we all deserve hell.
We really do.
And every time we sin, it's like, oh man, I just feel embarrassed.
Well, thank you for being merciful for us and just being the advocate for us against the sin.
And Heavenly Father, we ask you once again for divine intervention to give us the Holy Spirit to write your word upon our hearts today in the book of Ecclesiastes chapter 4.
In this awesome book.
And Heavenly Father, we love you with all our heart and soul.
And we just ask you to pray for everybody that needs prayer for any reason.
And just comfort us and protect us all from the forces of evil.
And we thank you so much with all our hearts.
We're just full of thanksgiving for you, Heavenly Father.
For everything you've done for us, created us, and just give us a chance through your Son and the precious blood of your Son to be redeemed.
To be ears to the inheritance that you offer for us.
And we love you so much with all our hearts and souls.
Amen.
So we read description context, because context is key, and let the scripture interpret scripture.
Always important to understand this stuff.
And if you do this stuff guys, you'll never go wrong.
This way you can't say, oh, Dan taught me that, or this one taught me that.
No, you teach yourself that, through the Holy Spirit.
And like I say all the time, don't take my word, or anybody else's word for it.
You need to read it for yourselves.
That being said, people watching on shakeawakeradio.com, the audio version here, please open your Bibles up.
And we got up on screen for those watching the video edition, Collisions Chapter 4.
So we got the King James up there, so let's begin.
So continuing off from Chapter 3, when we learn in Chapter 3, you know, talk about fathers don't provoke your kids' anger.
Be, and husbands, be merciful to your wives, right?
You know, I'm sorry, I butchered that up.
Yeah.
Wives, submit yourselves unto your husbands, and husbands, love your wives and don't be bitter against them.
And we ended where it says, but he that does wrong shall receive the wrong.
You know, let me recap this here.
In verse 24, knowing that the Lord you shall receive the reward of the inheritance for you are of the Lord Jesus Christ.
But he that does wrong shall receive the wrong which he had done.
And there's no respect of that person.
Continue on to chapter 4.
Masters.
And again this could pertain to what?
Not necessarily slave masters today.
But our bosses.
And servants were the employees.
The master today is an employer.
And because we're all slaves to the system.
Let's face it.
We have to work and all that stuff so our bosses would be considered that, right?
And we'd be the servants, right?
The workers.
So, masters, give unto your servants that which is just and equal.
Knowing that you show you also have a master in heaven.
So, masters, like you would say, would be bosses, right?
Supervisors, managers, right?
Give unto your servants which is just and equal.
Be just and equal.
Treat them equal.
Treat them just.
Be kind to them.
Don't say, oh, I'm your boss or your master.
Because there's some people in the world that are slaves and slave masters.
But generally speaking, in today's world, we've got bosses out there.
Some of us might be bosses.
Your servants, which is your workers, right?
Treat them with respect and be just to them and equal.
Treat them like family.
Knowing that you also have a master in heaven.
So you might be a head honcho, or a CEO of some top corporation, right?
Well, guess what?
You might be the head dandy duke, whatever you want to call yourself, right?
But guess what?
You got a boss too, and that's the Heavenly Father.
So, continue in prayer, and watch in the same with Thanksgiving.
So, continue in prayer, right?
And watch in the same, in other words, like with Thanksgiving.
Be full of Thanksgiving.
That's giving thanks to the Lord, our Heavenly Father.
So Paul's saying, which he's in bonds, by the way, it's like, in a good way.
that God would open unto us a door of utterance to speak the mystery of Christ, for which I am also in bonds.
So Paul's saying, like, which he's in bonds, in a good way.
Well, God would open the door for us of utterance.
Which utterance?
Utterance is like, let's look that up, right?
Okay.
It's the act of speak and the power of speech in expression of words.
So, teaching the Bible.
Like what I'm doing here.
I'm using utterance, the door of utterance that's been opened up to me from the Lord.
To speak the mysteries of Christ.
And it's not a mystery no more when it's revealed to you.
And where's the mystery?
I want to point this out here again, right?
How do you learn the mysteries of Christ?
What do we do at the beginning of the show?
We ask who?
To do what?
The Holy Spirit to write this Word upon our hearts.
He's the Great Comforter, the Great Teacher.
He reveals the mysteries of the Gospel.
And like I said in the last chapter and other chapters before.
You can't learn that in the academia.
You can't learn that in seminary school.
You can't learn in Sunday school, whatever thing you go to.
This is only revealed to you through the Holy Spirit.
There's a big difference of learning the Scriptures through academia.
That's the schools, the colleges, the universities.
Versus learning from the Holy Spirit.
The Holy Spirit is a better teacher than any professor or scholar in the world combined.
And Paul says, which I am in bonds.
Also in bonds.
Now, which isn't a good thing.
You know, it's a good thing he's saying.
That he's enslaving to this in a good way.
And it's his job to teach.
It's our job to teach.
That's why I'm here doing this now.
That I may make it manifest as I ought to speak.
Which I mean make manifest.
To come into issue.
To do.
Like, in other words, I'm making manifest, like what I'm speaking now, if you're listening now, my work here is manifesting to you as we speak.
And obviously this is pre-recorded.
So, it manifests to you from me, from Jesus.
See, I'm just going to rephrase that.
It manifests to you from the Lord Jesus Christ, the Holy Spirit, through me, to you.
Not from me, through me.
Because it's Jesus and the Holy Spirit that give you that, and the Father.
Walk in wisdom toward them that are without.
Which we, you know, people of the world, and all these people who, you know, bash the Bible a lot, they don't have wisdom.
They could have all the scholarships in the world, or whatever the case, degrees, they don't have wisdom.
Because true wisdom is the fear of the Lord.
As the scripture says.
And there's no other Lord, right?
So, walking wisdom toward them that don't have wisdom.
Redeeming the time.
Let your speech always be with grace.
You notice the old English, right?
You would say, uh, let your speech always be with grace.
No, they put be always with grace, right?
Whatever the case, but yeah, let your speech be always with grace.
Speak with grace at all times.
Seasoned with the salt.
What does that mean, seasoned with salt?
Do we put salt in our mouths?
No.
In other words, like, Jesus says, right, we gotta be the light and salt of the earth.
And he talks about those lukewarm Christians that get chewed up and spit out because they lost their, uh, flavor.
Those are the people who sit around and do nothing.
They'll listen to the Bible, they'll study the Bible left and right, but guess what?
They don't do nothing with it.
They got an abundance of knowledge in their head, touched by the Holy Spirit, but they do nothing with it.
And those are the typical people sitting in the pews every week in the church, right?
They learn the Word of God, that's all they do.
You're supposed to go out into the midst of the world and teach.
And no, not everybody's great at speaking.
Heck, I'm not good at speaking either.
I'll be the first to admit that.
I'm very humble when it comes to that stuff.
But yeah, go out and do something.
Write a blog, you know, comment on people's, you know, on your Facebooks and everything else.
Just somehow, some way, get the word of God out.
But let your speech be always with grace.
Speak with grace.
Season with salt.
In other words, the knowledge of the Word of God.
Let that salt that's Jesus Christ, let that light that's Jesus Christ shine through you and seize through you.
That you may know how you ought to answer every man.
And this is important here, right?
That you may know how to answer every man.
Because you ought to get hit with questions left and right.
From atheists, from occultists, from people with twisted religions and everything else.
You've got to get hit with every question in the book, right?
And you've got to know how to answer these people.
And I would say number one is to rely on the Holy Spirit.
Let the Holy Spirit speak through you.
And as we learned in Ephesians, right?
What did the Bible say in Ephesians?
To know the deeds of evil and expose them.
And no, it doesn't mean you go out and read the entire Satanic Bible.
And study every little thing that they do in that church and all.
No.
When you're grounded in the faith, and no, I'm not using the new age term, I'm talking about being especially grounded.
To know the basics of your enemy.
And again, it's not the people that are the enemy, it's Satan himself.
So, like, in my library, right, I have a lot of Masonic material, Occultist material, to know the basics.
I don't study everything about them, but know the basics, at least.
To know what they do.
So, when you get a Wicca, Wiccan person, right?
The person's a Wicca, or a Satanism, or some kind of form of witchcraft, whatever.
They'll come up to you, and they got a question for you.
And you answer the question, you gotta blow them away.
Because the thing is, you don't know anything about them, right?
If you don't know anything about them, right?
You're not going to be able to help them.
That's why Ephesians says, to know your enemy, then expose him.
And here it says, let your speech always be with grace, seasoned with salt, that you may know how to answer every man's question.
All my state shall technest declare unto you.
Who is a beloved brother and a faithful minister and a fellow servant in the Lord.
So, Tectus here, I butchered his name probably, but forgive me.
So, he's the one reading the letter to, bringing the letter to this church of Colossians for Paul.
Because at the time Paul's in jail, writing this letter, and Tectus here brought the letter to them to read to the church.
Who is a beloved brother and a faithful minister and fellow servant in the Lord.
Now, did he say, oh, he's my faithful minister?
A fellow servant in me?
No.
For all you Paul-bashers out there?
People who love to bash Paul?
No.
This is not the doctrine of Paul.
This is the doctrine of Christ.
He's saying right there, faithful ministers and fellow servant, he's a brother, beloved brother, and a faithful minister.
I'll take this there, right?
Faithful minister and fellow servant of the Lord, in the Lord, whom I have sent unto you for the same purpose, that you might know your estate and comfort your hearts.
Your estate, which is your surroundings, you know, you could be in many meanings for that, but Let's look that up in the Bible.
Because the state is like, you know, like... If you have an estate, you know, like, that's your property and stuff, right?
But in this here is condition.
Yeah.
To know your condition, you know, your state of where you're at, right?
What you're doing.
So know your condition.
And comfort your hearts.
With ominous, a faithful and beloved brother who is one of you.
They shall make known unto you all things that which were done yet.
So Ominous and Titus are going to make known to all everybody there that which are done.
And Eurystheus, my fellow prince.
Again, I butchered these names.
I apologize, but... You're probably all laughing.
Yeah, I don't blame him because I butchered these names, but they are hard to read.
Heck, a lot of people butchered my last name.
It's like a way to spell them, but anyway, yeah.
So, Erichus, my fellow prisoner, sleuths you, and Marcus, sister's son of Barnabas, touching whom you received commandments.
If he comes unto you, receive him.
So he's telling them at the church there, that Barnabas, in whom he received commandments to go there.
And when he comes there, I receive him.
In other words, acknowledge him.
And when he says, I ask you to my fellow prisoner to salute you, again, Paul's in prison.
And this is one of his cellmates.
So in Jesus, which is called justice, notice how the word's capitalized.
So in Jesus, which is called justice, so I guess that's another name for Jesus.
Or a title.
Let me see if that's a name or a title.
Justice.
Just or Uplight.
But it's capitalized, so.
Bishop of, alright, so.
This justice went up to become a bishop?
Alright, so justice, like I said, is a title.
Which is a bishop or a leuthopolis, whatever that is, but I'll go with bishop.
Because I don't even know how to spell that word.
Yeah, well, Paul did mention bishop, so I'm assuming it's a bishop.
And this word here looks like the same thing as bishop anyway, so yeah.
So, he's saying in Jesus, which is a bishop, Who are the circumcision?
These only are my fellow workers unto the kingdom of God, which have been a comfort unto me.
So it's very important, like when I say all the time, and this is a perfect demonstration, you need to take your time reading, because if you skim through this, you will completely miss that.
You would think justice, when you normally, the word justice means, Like, you do things in the court of law, right?
But if you notice the word is capitalized, that means it's a name or a title.
And when you looked it up, you found out it's a title.
Bishop is a title.
So he's saying Jesus, which is like a, you know, which is called Bishop, Right?
In which we know Jesus means redeemed and all that stuff, right?
Well, and Messiah.
Well, who are the circumcision?
These only are my fellow workers unto the kingdom of God, which have been a comfort unto me.
Euphrates, who is one of you, a servant of Christ, salutes you.
In other words, a fellow believer.
Paul had contact with him, and Euphrates told him, basically, hello to the church.
Saluting his acknowledgment, saying hello, right?
So always laboring fervently for you in prayers, saying that Euphrates is always praying for you.
That he may stand perfect and complete in all the will of God.
For I bear him record, which is he's bearing record of Euphrates, that he had great zeal for you, and them that are on the sea, those who are on the sea there, and them in Hyropolis.
Luke, the beloved physician, and Demas greet you.
So let me see if that, where Dennis is.
Governor of people.
So again, another example here.
Demis is capitalized, so it's either name or title.
So, it's a governor of people.
A companion of Paul, who deserted the apostles when he was a prisoner, and Roman returned to Thessalonica.
So that's who he's talking about, right there.
And it's always, look, the Bible definition.
So we understand Demis is a governor.
So Luke here was a beloved physician and a governor.
He greets him.
So this is the place where the place of Lusonia and Nymphus, which is a person, and a church which is in his house.
If you look at the scriptures, right?
All these churches... Again, the church is who?
The body of people, right?
A lot of these churches were running people's houses.
They didn't have big cathedrals and all that stuff.
And yeah, the Jews had the temples and all that stuff.
Well, the followers of Christ didn't build those for that church.
They went to each other's houses.
They gathered together.
That's what I say all the time.
The churches could be literally like if you have a big van, you got a bunch of people in your car, you're sitting there talking about the gospel, that's a church.
Your living room, your backyard, at the beach with a bunch of people, where you talk about the gospel, that's the church.
Where two more are gathering the same, there he is.
And when the epistle is read among you, because it is to be read also in the church of the Lusodians, and that you likewise read the epistle from Lusodian.
In other words, it's like constant work in the Lord.
to the ministry which thou hast received into the Lord.
That thou fulfill it.
The salutation by the hand of me, Paul, remember my bonds.
In other words, it's like constant work in the Lord.
Remember he says he's bonded to this?
Because he's, it's a good way, not a bad way.
That he's doing nothing but bringing the gospel.
Preaching the word of Jesus Christ.
So again he says, the salutations of my hand, of me, Paul.
So he's offering salutations to people.
Remember my bonds, in other words, remember the work I've done.
He says, Grace be with you, Amen.
Written from Rome to Colossians by Titus and Omasis.
So obviously Paul was speaking and Titus and Omasis was writing it down for the letter then, right?
They brought it over to the Church of Ecclesiastes.
So, yeah, amazing book.
And next we got 1 Thessalonians.
This is going to be awesome.
These chapters, 1 and 2 Thessalonians.
Well, I think, yeah, it's a lot about tongues and everything else.
It's going to be pretty good.
So, yeah, thank you guys for tuning in to this chapter.
Yeah, chapter 4.
And we are completely done with the book Ecclesiastes.
And these things are going by fast.
And like I said guys, don't take my word, anybody else's word for it, read it for yourselves.
