Thank you.
Thank you.
Good evening, everybody, everybody, and welcome to the June 14th, 2024
edition of the FOJC Remnant Gathering, which 2024 edition of the FOJC Remnant Gathering, which is now Friday Night Live, and we are now live, live, live on a Friday night, We have Brian Reese manning the controls.
We have Sister Dawn in the chat room.
And we have some special guests here at Ground Zero, the Smiths from Texas, and you're going to be hearing from them.
At the end of the broadcast, and we also at the end of the broadcast, we have a song that Sister Donna wrote we're going to be playing.
So there's a lot going on here, and I tell you what, it's hopping and a-popping here at Ground Zero.
We've had friends in this week visiting.
It's just been a really exceptionally blessed time.
And I want to make an announcement, because I forgot to last week, announcing our prayer-a-thon, oh yeah!
It'll be June 24th at 4pm.
You can get your requests in, go to our homepage, go to the prayer-a-thon page, the email is there.
for you to send in your requests for the prayer-a-thon.
Absolutely.
And if Sister Don or Brian or somebody wants to put that in the chat, that's perfectly fine.
But June 24th at 4 p.m., Brother Sam Garcia will be heading up once again our prayer-a-thon.
And I tell you what, The devil has really fought us getting this prayer-a-thon up, but we're gonna get her done, Lord willing, and that'll just be a great blessing to be able to do that.
As always, want to do a little mail call up in here, and if you would like to write, To Don and I, you can write to us at Followers of Jesus Christ, Post Office Box 671, Tell City, Indiana, 47586.
one tell city indiana four seven five eight six and i love reading the letters some really good ones It's such a blessing.
I tell you what, we get a lot of trolls and we get, well not a lot, but we get our trolls, we get threats, get all kinds of garbage thrown our way, but we get a lot of really good letters and people that love us and pray for us, and that makes it worth it all.
And a really nice, heard from Regina, In New Mexico, and Regina writes, words just can't express the gratitude I have found in your ministry.
You're both my heavenly brother and sister.
Love you both, Regina.
Well, Regina, we love you, and you don't know how much it means to me and Sister Donna to know that you're praying for us and have joined your heart with ours.
We also heard from Dawn in New Mexico, and she did such a great job on the teaching.
on Mormonism that was uploaded just last week.
Really, really good.
If you haven't seen it, you need to to watch that video.
We heard from the Smiths in Texas, who also happen to be in my front room.
So that was a blessing.
We heard from Albert and Tina Brown in New Mexico, who also have been in fellowshipping with them yesterday.
And such a blessing to be with Albert and Tina.
We heard from Kim in Michigan.
Sandra in California, we heard from Jeannie in Georgia, and Jeannie wrote, I am praying daily as the Holy Spirit leads, as you well know, the enemy loves to knock you off your feet.
Oh yeah!
But we also know we serve the one who can secure us high upon his rock.
Keep the faith by his grace, no matter what.
Love, Jeannie.
Thank you so much, Jeannie.
Prayers like that keep us going.
Absolutely.
We heard from Tom in Michigan.
We also heard from Cynthia in Michigan.
We heard from Sean in Tennessee.
We heard from Tyler in Oregon.
And Jack in Montana, and this is a little letter here.
This is from Sandra, and I'm not sure what state Sandra's in, but she writes, I've learned so much and have had so much deliverance.
And that's what it's all about.
It's about Getting free in Jesus, serving Him, drawing closer to Him, getting the garbage and the junk out of our life, and getting that deliverance that only the Holy Spirit can bring.
Also, a nice letter here from Tyler and Amber.
It says, Thank you for the blessing of speaking, teaching, preaching, and the anointing of the Holy Spirit in truth.
Yah bless you all in Jesus' name.
It says, please pray for our marriage.
Pray for the salvation of our loved ones.
And let's do that right now.
And also, saw in the chat that Red Lemur had broken his back.
Bless your heart, Red Lemur.
We're going to pray for you.
Absolutely.
And I guess from what I've seen in the chat, you're coming out and doing good.
So, bless your heart.
We're going to pray for Red Lemur.
And we're going to pray for Tyler and Amber, and we're going to continue to pray for Donna.
And I think the last one I had, let's see, acknowledge everybody, I think Jack in Montana, Tyler in Oregon, I think I've acknowledged all the letters here.
But let's do, let's go to the Lord in prayer.
Father, in Jesus' name, I just want to thank you for all that you're doing, for your many blessings.
Father, we just pray for your protection and for the continued blessing of FOJC.
Father, we want to lift up Red Lemur.
We thank you, Lord, for the good report of his strength and healing.
And Father, in Jesus' name, We just want to pray that the Spirit of God touch him right now, wherever he is at, and let the strengthening power of the Holy Spirit come into him right now, in the mighty name of Jesus.
Father, we want to pray for Tyler and Amber.
We want to pray for their marriage, that you'll just supernaturally put the anointing of love and power upon them, and just let the Holy Spirit guide them and weave them together in love.
Father, we also pray for conviction upon the lost loved ones, that you'll bring conviction upon them and bring them to Jesus.
Father, we also want to lift up Brian's father.
We just want to pray that you'll just Do whatever you need to do physically and spiritually there to meet the needs.
And Father, we also want to continue to pray for Sister Donna, that you'll just continue to strengthen her.
We thank you for the victory.
And Father, we want to pray for this lesson tonight, that you'll just let your Holy Spirit Go forth in truth and in power, and that your Word will not return void as we know it is promised in your Word.
Just strengthen us in the mighty power of your Holy Spirit.
In Jesus' name we pray, Amen and Amen.
Tonight, I'm going to entitle this teaching, The Truth About the Bible.
And what I'm going to begin to do on Friday nights, which is what I do a lot, but I'm going to be a little more systematic about it.
I'm going to be teaching a lot of the foundational doctrines that are essential to all believers.
And like I've said, the doctrines that we believe in, FOJC Radio, They are all found within Orthodox Christianity, and we also, we have the distinctives that the Lord has definitely led us to stand for and to bring to the attention of the body of Christ in these last days, such as the seventh-day Sabbath and the distinction between the clean and unclean foods.
And I want to read a statement here, and I think this series of teachings, it might even wound up at some point in time being a written document with the help of Brother Eric DeVries.
We're just going to be praying much about that.
But I want to make a statement here to kind of preface this series and this understanding.
And I said this, and I called ourselves non-conformist, because that's what the Puritans were called in the 17th century.
They were non-conformist.
They wouldn't conform to the rules that organized religion said they had to conform to, and I wrote this.
Non-conformist brethren in the 17th century chose to leave the Church of England rather than to conform to practices and beliefs that they felt were contrary to the Scripture.
The non-conformists felt compelled to produce The nonconformist catechism to give a full explanation of their actions and beliefs.
Likewise, in these last days, the FOJC nonconformists have chosen to separate ourselves.
from the religious system, and to produce a statement of faith and catechism to fully explain to all the reason for our actions and beliefs.
And catechism scares a lot of people.
They think of Catholics, But the Catholics catechized, so did the Lutherans, so did the Puritans.
And that just means a question-and-answer series, and there were catechisms for children, and they would just ask children questions, you know, do you believe Jesus was God in the flesh or whatever?
And through a series of questions, they would use this as a teaching instrument For the children and for the adults, they would have child catechisms, and they would have adult catechisms, and a detailed statement of faith, so that we can really help people to understand.
We are very strange people to the world, and you know the Bible said that God's people would be peculiar people.
You know, who are these people that won't eat pork and actually observe the Sabbath and believe in the whole Bible?
What are these people?
Why do they do what they do?
And we're going to be doing that for a while probably.
And like I say, and I really hope this can become a written document so we can leave a full detailed record.
of just what we believe and why.
And this is in the spirit of 1 Peter 3 15, but sanctify the Lord God in your hearts and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear.
And that's what we want to do.
We want to be able to give an answer to help people understand why these peculiar people are like we are.
You know, why do they believe in the whole Bible, you know, and all this?
So we're going to be doing that, and of course that's going to be an ongoing thing, and I want to really feel led to deal with a lot of important doctrines, and a lot of important distinctives, and a lot of the views we take on modern social issues.
Because, I tell you, the crazy things we have coming at us are just unending, and we have to understand the biblical response to these things that are happening in the world we live in.
Now, also, we have had many men and women of God that have gone before us, and we could rightly say that we stand on their shoulders.
We stand on the shoulders of the first century martyrs.
We stand on the shoulders of the reformers.
We stand upon the shoulders of the Puritans and of Mr. Wesley, and of all the great men and women of God that have gone before us, men that have spent their lives studying the Word, and we can learn a lot from them, and we will.
But we also have to say that there is no man that we follow except Jesus.
And it's easy to look.
I could look at my life, and I could look at your life, I bet, and we could see mistakes that we've made.
And I can, you know, I talk a lot about all the good of the Puritans.
Well, I could talk about some of their mistakes also.
Like getting involved in politics, which pretty much brought down the downfall of the Puritan movement.
But we can learn not only from the good of these men and women, but we can learn from their mistakes in the Bible.
It doesn't sugarcoat King David.
It didn't leave out the part where he committed adultery.
Didn't leave out at all.
All of the mistakes, the Bible gives us the full truth.
About all of our Bible characters, they were human, and just like we are, and that's good, that gives us hope, doesn't it?
And so we can learn, and while we really, we dig a lot of research here all the time, as you know, and I love to read after the great men and women of God, But we have to say that the end of the day, just like the battle cry of the Reformation, sola scriptura, scripture only.
And that's what we're going to do, and that always is the deciding factor, the Word of God.
And this is what Jesus said, the scripture is our authority, in John chapter 5 and verse 39, search the scriptures, for in them ye think ye have eternal life.
And they are they which testify of me.
It's about the Bible.
It's all about the Bible.
That is our final authority.
Let's go to the book of 2 Timothy chapter 3.
And in 2 Timothy chapter 3, and I want to read verses 14 and 15, But continue thou in the things which thou hast learned, and hast been assured of, knowing of whom thou hast learned them, and that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.
Now, as a little child, When Timothy was reared up, we're talking about the Old Testament here, folks.
This is talking about the Old Testament, and it is just so grieving to me, the denigration that the Old Testament has fallen under.
I love all of the Word of God, and over and over here, we talk about being whole Bible believers, but these scriptures and every Every word in the Bible is inspired, from the very first verse of Genesis to the last book of the Bible in Revelation.
But this is talking about the Old Testament Scriptures.
And we can read in verse 16, all Scripture, not just the Old Testament, but the New Testament also, all Scripture is given by inspiration of God.
And that word inspiration means God-breathed.
God literally breathed out the words, and we're going to understand just what that means, Lord willing, that when God moved upon the men that wrote the holy scriptures, he literally breathed the exact words on them that he wanted them to write.
God breathed the inspiration on all the scriptures, all scripture, and it says it is profitable for doctrine.
We get our doctrine from the Word of God, we start with the doctrine of Christ, and we go from there for reproof.
When we have doctrines that are obviously against the doctrine of Christ, we correct them, and for correction, for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works.
Francis Piper, he wrote about just what it means when the Bible says the Word of God is given by inspiration.
He wrote, the scriptures not only tell us that they are the Word of God, but they also teach very clearly why they are the Word of God, namely because they were inspired or breathed into the writers by God.
And when the Holy Spirit breathed upon them, he did it in such a profound way That they were directly communicated the exact words that the Lord wanted them to write down.
And the Word of God insists on nothing less than the very words of God being given unto man and preserved.
In 1 Corinthians chapter 2 and verse 13, which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth, But which the Holy Ghost teacheth, comparing spiritual things with spiritual.
The Holy Ghost teaches us words.
He gives us words.
Words are important.
And the Bible holds to nothing less than the very words of Scripture being breathed out upon the people that wrote the scriptures.
And we're going to study, we're going to be looking at time, what men of God have believed about this, and we see a great apostasy.
We see the level of belief and the bar for the inspiration of scripture going lower and lower and lower throughout time.
R. A. Torrey, He wrote, the Holy Spirit in the apostles taught not only the thought or concept, but the words in which the thought was to be expressed.
The very words were given.
And the Bible itself, it will allow for nothing else than the very words of God transmitted from God to man.
In 2 Samuel 23 and 2, The Spirit of the Lord spake by me, and his word was in my tongue.
The prophet David.
The Spirit of God spake by him, and his word was in his tongue.
The very words given from God to David and spoken out for us to believe.
I wrote this.
Nonconformists are whole Bible believers.
Can we get an amen?
We're whole Bible believers.
And I tell you what, we have a friend of ours that also has come in from out of state, and when her neighbors got to know her, they're calling her an Old Testament believer.
An Old Testament believer.
Well, you know, I'll take that.
I'm an Old Testament believer.
I'm a New Testament believer.
I believe all of it.
You know, label me that way.
I don't care.
But nonconformists are whole Bible believers that all of the words that God gave are found in the Hebrew Masoretic and Greek Received Text.
Every believer that has a King James Bible and a Strong's Concordance can look up every word that God breathed out in the Hebrew, Greek, and Aramaic for themselves.
Now, When God breathed out words, he did not breathe them out in English.
The words that God breathed out were Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek.
They were then.
Now, we're going to talk about the difference between inspiration, the breathing out of the scriptures to the original writers of the Bible, and preservation.
God not only promises to inspire His Word, but He also promises to preserve it.
And over and over, I emphasize that there is truth in the English.
I'm going to have a news flash for a lot of modern Christians here.
There is a Bible!
There is a Bible!
There is a Bible that's true and trustworthy, that you can read and trust, that's pure and holy.
And we have it here, the King James Bible.
And we're going to be helping you understand why that is the holy, preserved Word of God.
There's truth in the English, and I don't believe for a minute that God requires of his children to have to study Hebrew or Greek or Aramaic to know truth, you can hold this book in your hand and read it.
It's pure and it will lead you into all truth.
Also, these English words were translated from two texts, the Hebrew Masoretic text and the Greek Received text.
Those texts are also preserved holy and inerrant.
So there's truth in the text, in the Hebrew, Greek, and Aramaic, there's truth in the English, and all you have to do You don't have to go to some fast-talking Kabbalah wizard that thinks you have to learn to speak Hebrew.
You can go, and like I say, if you just read your King James Bible, you'll be alright.
And I encourage people to also get a Strong's Concordance, and you can look up every word that God breathes out.
in the original Hebrew, Greek, and Aramaic.
That's all you need is Strong's Concordance.
You can study the Word of God for yourself.
And never, there are some people, what we see is that there are, in the Greek language, it's much more deep or flowery.
And I don't know, just the word here, it's much more extensive than the English.
And there are Greek words that have multiple layers of meaning, and you have to, and what the King James Bible, it translates it according to context.
And never will the English and the originals conflict.
But what you can do, you can go to the original because there is deeper meaning in those languages, and you can learn even more insight from studying the Hebrew and the Greek and the Aramaic, and all you got to do is get a strong concordance.
You can do it for yourself.
So, there you go.
Now, and also in the King James Bible, You might actually have to, and what I recommend over and over and over is the Webster's 1828.
Just for instance, in the Old Testament, the word turtle at the time of the King James Bible meant the turtle dove.
You know, it's not like the turtle, turtle, turtle show.
And you know, a lot of people, they go, well, lookie there, the King James is mistranslated.
It's got a turtle in there!
You know, and the truth is that at that time the word turtle meant the turtle dove.
So you might actually have to get a dictionary and look a couple words up, but that's all right.
And there's really very few words that have changed their meaning like that from the time of the King James until now.
Now, 1 Timothy 2 and verse 15, study to shew thyself approved unto God a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.
And we handle the word of God respectively.
respectfully, that it is God's inspired, God breathed, preserved word.
We go to it and we look at all things.
We believe that Jesus Christ is the ultimate revelation of God and that he came to give us the understanding of the way to understand all things, that he sent his Holy Spirit unto us to reveal truth to us, and the words of, and the Holy Spirit According to John chapter 14, verse 26, will always take us back to what Jesus said, and since I brought that up, I think I'll read it for you.
John 14, 26, But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.
Praise God!
The Bible also prophesies unto us that in the last days there's going to be a great apostasy.
And apostasy means a falling away from the true faith, and you can't fall away from the faith if you have never had the faith.
And we see so many people that are genuinely born again, and the devil tries to get them into some kind of a belief system that will keep them defiled and stray them from the faith And the way of discipleship that will wind them up into hell.
That's what Satan wants to do.
He's here to steal and kill and destroy.
And that's what we want to do.
We want to give people those sound foundational truths that will take you from here into the next life.
Now, Amos chapter 8 and verse 11.
These are the days that have come.
Behold, the days come, saith the Lord God, that I will send a famine in the land, Not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the Lord.
And literally, we're going to show you throughout this study this evening how the very words of the Lord have been stolen from people.
There's a prophecy in Jeremiah where Jeremiah talked about this very thing, where the prophets have stolen the words of God from the people.
Now I want to talk a little bit about Bible preservation, and what Bible preservation means is that not only did God inspire His Word and had men and women of God—well, men, I don't know of any women that were involved, but The men of God wrote down the words of Scripture, and then God preserved them.
There has never been a book so attacked as the Word of God.
So many Bibles were burned.
There were manuscripts burned.
The devil has done everything he can.
He has sent men in to produce phony manuscripts.
You know, John's been talking about the false Messiah.
Well, there's false manuscripts.
We can read from the apostolic fathers the names of those.
that put these false manuscripts in there, but through it all, God has preserved His Word.
We have a pure, inerrant Bible in the English and also in the original text that we can trust.
And this is a newsflash!
We really do have a Bible.
We really do have one that we can trust.
Now, I want to read from the Confession of Faith This was the Westminster Confession of Faith.
It was 1647, produced in England in the heyday of Puritanism, and it says this in the 1647 Westminster Confession.
It says the Old Testament in Hebrew.
which was the native language of the people, of God of old, and the New Testament in Greek, which at the time of the writing of it was most generally known to the nations, being immediately inspired by God, and by His singular care and providence, kept pure in all ages.
Kept pure in all ages.
Not only inspired, but preserved.
And then they go on to say, are therefore authentical.
The Puritans and the Reformers, they had the battle over the Word of God with the Jesuits.
And boy, that's a whole story by itself.
And I know Dan Bodondi on his channel has the documentary, A Lamp in the Dark.
And boy, that is so good.
It'll give you an understanding of the way that the Jesuits have tried to sully and corrupt the received texts.
They tried to blow King James up with old Guy Fawkes to try to prevent it.
I tell you what, God preserves His Word.
God preserves these words.
It's an absolute miracle.
It's an absolute miracle that he could take a Stuart King that would authorize it.
Now that's a miracle in itself.
The very dying words of William Tyndale, when they were burning William Tyndale at the stake, who died for translating the proper manuscripts into English, his dying words were, Opened the King of England's eyes.
And in less than a hundred years, he did.
And the Lord moved upon that Stuart King to authorize the King James Bible.
That's a miracle in itself.
I guarantee you.
Now, let's go to the Word of God.
And this is what we're maintaining this evening, that God inspired and breathed out words that was recorded in the Hebrew, Greek, and the Aramaic, and that God preserved them.
And they have been preserved through thousands of manuscripts, and now they have been preserved in English in the King James Bible.
The King James Bible is God's preserved word in English.
Now, let's just say this for a moment.
This is the popular position of the Evangelical Church.
They say that the Bible was inerrant and inspired in the autographs.
in the autographs, but no longer do we have the autographs.
Now, what do I say to people that say the Bible was inerrant and inspired in the original autographs?
I'm going to say, you don't have an inerrant Bible.
All of the autographs are gone.
We don't have the original handwritten copy that Moses wrote of Genesis or the original copy of Romans that Paul wrote But, that does not mean that we do not have the preserved Word of God.
That's what we mean.
And today, when the evangelical church says, it was perfect, but yeah, it was perfect in the autographs, they deny Bible preservation.
That's why you get a new Bible translation every few months.
And every Bible translation comes out, they have to change a certain percent of it to get a new copyright to make money!
Oh yeah!
If you think Truth to God's Word is behind these new translations, we might need to think again.
So if you believe in the inspiration of Scripture, but do not believe in its preservation, you don't have a Bible.
And this is the mindset that most believers are raised in, and I want to tell all of you this morning that have been in and out of these churches, there is a Bible.
There is a Bible that you can hold in your hands, that you can trust, that's pure and holy, and we're going to be showing you irrefutable logical proof of why that is the King James and not these other translations.
Now let's look at Psalm chapter 12 Psalm chapter 12 and verse 6 and 7, and let's look at some Scripture about Bible preservation.
The words of the Lord are pure words, as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times.
Thou shalt keep them, O Lord!
Thou shalt preserve them from this generation forever!
Praise God!
God promises to preserve His Word.
If He didn't, we wouldn't have a Bible, and we have to try to persuade And to give the great news to our people that are raised under this erroneous mindset that there is a Bible.
Yes, there is.
Jesus said in Matthew 24 and 35, Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my word shall not pass away, unless you have a new translation.
And I'm going to show you the amazing, staggering facts of how many of the words of Jesus and of the precious Word of God are taken out in these modern translations.
It should shock people.
It should shock.
If you're someone that is sitting under this mindset, if you'll just consider this fact, it should absolutely shock you.
Let's look at some more scriptures on Bible preservation.
In the 119th Psalm, Psalm 119, and I want to read verse 89.
Forever, O Lord, thy word is settled in heaven.
It's settled in heaven, and it's settled on earth.
It isn't going to change next month, next week.
It is inspired, preserved, and it doesn't change.
No, no, no, it does not change.
And in Psalm 119, and this is why I get so irritated at this Mandela effect garbage, it's nothing but a demonic attack on God's Word.
God's Word is preserved and no devil in hell.
They've tried.
Oh boy, have they tried to corrupt the manuscripts, but God has preserved His Word, and that is all it is to think that some kind of their time-traveling Mandela devils or whatever they think can change the Word of God.
And I tell you what, Mandela trolls, and boy, John said the other day he's got a lot of these bright light Mandela trolls up on him.
Let me give you a suggestion, Mandela trolls.
If you don't like those midnight rides that John and I've been doing, just wait a few days and listen to them again.
Maybe your Mandela devils will take out the parts you don't like.
Try that, and then get back with us.
Now, Psalm 119.
Psalm 152, concerning thy testimonies, I have known of old that thou hast founded them forever.
The Word of God doesn't change.
God doesn't change.
We stand with the pure, uncorrupted Word of God in our hands, and how can somebody ever grow in their faith?
If you're a believer, and you come to Christ, and you get your Bible, who knows what kind you're gonna get in the church nowadays, and they're gonna tell you, well, yeah, that was perfect back when it was given, but right now we just don't know.
And it's a little different here, a little different there, you know.
How do you know anything about anything?
And it changes all the time.
Every new Bible comes out, changes again.
It's confusion, which is of the devil.
It's not the clarity, and we're going to see soon what the Word of God says about the certainty of God's Word.
Psalm 119, 160, Thy word is true from the beginning, and every one of thy righteous judgments endureth forever.
They endure forever!
The righteous judgments endure forever!
Now the Word of God talks about, I mean, it's not that hard.
When Jesus died upon the cross as the land that was taken away for the, the land that was slain for the sins of the world, that did away with the Levitical worship system.
We don't have to bring The animals, thank God, thank God for that.
Isn't that great?
Jesus is our once-for-all sacrifice.
And the things in the land that, you know, every Passover, well, they had to go to Jerusalem.
Thank God we don't have to all go to Jerusalem to celebrate Passover.
Thank God for that.
But all of his righteous judgments are still his righteous judgments.
That's why we stand upon, if it's not something that's when Israel was in the land, and if it's not something that was to do with that Levitical worship, it's still good.
It endureth forever.
All of his righteous judgments endureth forever.
That's why we have stood so strong for all the Ten Commandments for the Seventh-day Sabbath.
That's why we stand strong like I taught last week on would Jesus eat a mouse?
And he wouldn't, because if he did, he would not have been our sinless Savior.
If Jesus would have ever Had one bite of pork or mouse pass his lips, he would have sinned against the law of God.
He was not a sinner, so therefore we know the answer to that.
He was our pure, sinless Savior.
And then the Word of God, and let me just look it up here.
Let me just look it up here.
In 1 Peter chapter 2.
1 Peter chapter 2 and verse 22, it says, Who did, okay, verse 21, 1 Peter 2 21, For even hereunto were ye called, because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow his steps.
Who did know Guile, neither was Guile found in his mouth.
Guile wasn't found in his mouth, and neither was those things the law said was unclean, because of they did.
He would have been a sinner.
All of his righteous judgments endure forever.
Let's look at Proverbs, chapter 22.
Proverbs, the 22nd chapter.
Proverbs, the 22nd chapter.
Proverbs 22, verses 20 through 21.
Have not I written to thee excellent things in counsels and knowledge that I might make thee know the certainty of the words of truth?
The certainty of the words of truth.
In these new Bibles, Well, I did a teaching one time, I might have to do it again.
Lucifer Suite 16, of 16 entire verses that are ripped out of these modern translations.
Yeah.
And you know, the certainty.
And the ones they don't take out, look at the footnotes.
There at the end of the Gospel of Mark, it'll say, well, this wasn't found in the best manuscripts.
That's a porky, and I won't even get into the understanding of the manuscripts.
But all through, they'll tell you that this probably wasn't in the Bible.
It's in our Bible, we put it in, but it probably wasn't there.
Who's going to believe that?
And what's a young believer going to believe?
They read the Bible, they see the footnote, well that probably wasn't in there.
They're not going to believe it.
Where is the certainty there?
There's no certainty.
This isn't teaching people to believe the Bible, but it destroys faith in the Bible.
The Word of God says that there is a certainty.
Let's read it again.
Proverbs 22.
And I want to read that scripture again, 20 and 21, Have not I written to thee excellent things and counsels and knowledge, that I might make thee know the certainty of the words of truth?
You can go, you can take your King James Bible, you can look those words up in the Hebrew, Greek, and Aramaic, and you can be certain Those are the words God read out.
There's a certainty in the Word of God.
It's not only inspired, but it's also preserved, and these people that are playing into this liberal form criticism, you're not teaching the Word of God, you're destroying it.
These new translations are not the Word of God, they're an attack on the Word of God.
They're an attack on it.
Now, that I might make thee know the certainty of the words of truth, that thou mightest answer the words of truth to them that sinned unto thee.
In the book of Ecclesiastes, chapter 3 and verse 14, I know that whatsoever God doeth, it shall be forever.
Hallelujah!
It doesn't expire.
You know, the moral truths in Leviticus don't say, well, this will expire in 500 years.
The gifts of the Spirit in 1 Corinthians 12, well, this will expire when the last apostle died.
You know, they want to get rid of God's Word, one way or another.
It's just amazing to me.
But God doesn't change.
Hebrews 13, 8, Jesus Christ, the same yesterday, today, and forever.
The same Jesus that did not break God's law in so much as one place.
That same Jesus is now at the right hand of the Father.
It's not one Jesus here and another Jesus there.
It is absolutely.
Malachi 3 and 6, I am the Lord God, I change not.
All of his righteous judgments endure forever.
Praise God!
I want to read, after the Puritans, in the 1700s came the great move of God through John Wesley, and I want to read a little something from Richard Watson, who was the primary theologian of the Wesleyan movement.
He put down a really magnificent, if, you know, if I would vote, you know, I'm not your average guy.
Give me a good systematic theology and a pot of coffee, I'm good for the night, you know?
But this probably would be my favorite, and I want to read what Richard Watson wrote.
This was in the 1700s in his Theological Institutes, and he wrote this, The Uncorrupted Preservation of the Books of Scripture.
The uncorrupted preservation of the books of Scripture, the pure Word of God, the agreement Of all the manuscripts of the Old Testament, amounting to nearly 1150, which are known to be extant, is clear proof of its uncorrupted preservation.
These manuscripts, indeed, are not all entire.
Some contain one part and some another, but it is absolutely impossible that every manuscript, whether in the original Hebrew or in any ancient version or paraphrase, should or could be designedly altered or falsified in some passages without detection either by Jews or Christians.
And what that means is, now, the way the manuscripts were collected In the old and in the new.
Let's say you've got, and you know, manuscripts were transmitted and copied by human beings.
And there's just several basic errors.
You can get the word, you can leave out a word, you can bring a word from the line below it, you can transpose a word from above, that people make mistakes.
So you've got ten manuscripts here.
And in nine of them, it says dog, And in the 10th one, it says cat.
You know dog is right, and the guy that put cat in there is the guy that made the mistake.
By comparing these thousands of manuscripts, the text can be determined to an absolute certainty in the Hebrew and in the Greek.
But let's say there's that one guy that said cat.
That is what they call an alternate reading.
And there's literally thousands of alternate readings because of the Gospel of Matthew.
I think there's like 5,000 plus manuscripts just of Matthew.
So there's thousands of these alternate readings and they don't mean a thing, except that human beings make mistakes.
And some of these came in, as we'll see, from deliberate attempts to falsify and sully the Word of God.
Now, going on, Brother Watson said this, The manuscripts now extant are confessedly liable to errors and mistakes from carelessness, negligence, or inaccuracy of copyists, but they are not uniformly incorrect, throughout, nor in the same words or passages, but what is incorrect in one place is correct in the other.
Equally satisfactory is the evidence for the integrity and uncorruptness of the New Testament in anything material.
The testimonies deduced in the preaching section in behalf of the genuineness In the preceding section, in behalf of the genuineness and authenticity of the New Testament, are in a great measure applicable to show that it has been transmitted to us in, higher, and uncorrupted.
The reason why the Puritan Thunder was so effective, they believed when they preached they held the Word of God in their hand.
The reason why John Wesley prayed and said, if you'll give me ten men that'll give it all, sell out everything they got, he said, I'll change England.
And he got his ten men, he got his brother, George Whitefield, and some others, and there's a book written, Europe Before and After John Wesley.
We need to realize we have a Bible, and that we have a Bible we can hold in our hands, and that it is the inerrant, inspired, preserved Word of God.
1 Peter chapter 1.
1 Peter 1, and I want to read in verse 23.
1 Peter 1, beginning in verse 23, being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth forever.
The pure, preserved word of God is pure seed.
But we're going to show you that these modern translations, they're not pure, they're just corrupted.
For all flesh is as grass, and all the glory of man as the flower of grass.
The grass withereth and the flower thereof falleth away, but the word of the Lord endureth forever.
The Word of the Lord endureth forever because He promised to preserve it.
Jesus promised heaven and earth would not pass, would pass away, but His words, every word that Jesus spoke that the Father and the Holy Ghost wanted in Scripture, they're preserved and they're there.
And we can know when we read those red letters in our King James Bible that this is what Jesus spoke.
But the word of the Lord endureth forever, and this is the word which by the gospel is preached unto you.
Now let's ask ourselves this question.
What role, if any, did Jesus have in the writing of the Old Testament?
What role, if any, did the Holy Ghost have in the writing of the Old Testament.
1 Peter 1, verse 11, Searching what, or what manner of time, the Spirit of Christ which was in them did signify, when it testified beforehand the sufferings of Christ and the glory that should follow.
The Apostle Peter said that it was the Spirit of Christ that inspired the Old Testament prophets, just not the Old, but the New.
Joseph Benson said this, Here then, we learn that the inspiration of the Jewish prophets was delivered from Christ.
It was His Spirit which spake in them, the same Spirit He promised to the apostles.
Yeah, the same Spirit that moved Moses and Joshua was the same Holy Ghost that was given to the apostles.
It's the same Holy Ghost that was given unto us.
He goes on and says, he quotes John 16 7 and 16 13, Wherefore the prophets and apostles, being inspired by one and the same Spirit, their doctrine must be as in fact it is the same.
Praise God!
And when you understand that Jesus and the Holy Ghost inspired the Old Testament and the New, There is the, you become a whole Bible believer.
It's the same spirit inspiring the Old Testament, the same spirit inspiring the New.
That's why there's a supernatural unity throughout all of the Word of God.
Praise God!
Let's look at Ephesians chapter 4 and verse 5.
The book of Ephesians chapter 4 and verse 5.
One Lord, we could all memorize this.
It's six words.
One Lord, one faith, one baptism.
In the Epistle to the Corinthians, I think I'll turn and read this also.
1 Corinthians chapter 1 and verse 10, And the Scripture says here, Now I beseech you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you, but that ye be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment.
In John chapter 14 and verse 10, just like Brother Benson said, the Word of God tells us, Jesus and the Holy Ghost inspired the Old Testament as well as the New, therefore they're one!
They're one!
The same spirit from Genesis 1 to Revelation 22.
In John chapter 14 and verse 10, Jesus said, Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me?
The words that I speak unto you, I speak not of myself, but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works.
Jesus said, the very words he spoke came from the Father.
So when is this nonsense going to stop?
That there's one spirit upon the old, one spirit upon the new.
This is gone and this is here.
And I tell you what, this nonsense needs to stop.
We need to understand that all of the Bible is inspired by God and stands strong and unashamedly for that fact.
In John, the 5th chapter, in the 19th verse, Jesus said this, Then answered Jesus and said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, The Son can do nothing of himself, but what he seeth the Father do, for what thingsoever he doeth, he is also the Son.
Like doeth the Son likewise.
Everything Jesus said and did was precisely what he saw and heard the Father did.
Jesus said, if you've seen the Father, you've seen me.
In Hebrews chapter 1, and I'll turn and read that scripture for you.
In Hebrews, the first chapter, Hebrews chapter 1, And verse 3, who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things but the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the majesty on high.
Now what this means, that express image, that means if you have a stamp and an ink blotter, and if the stamp is the Father.
If you would put that stamp in the ink and make a stamp, they're identical.
The Father and Christ are one, the express image, just like the relationship between a stamp and its imprint.
If you've seen the Father, you have seen me.
And we could also say that the Jesus you read about in the New Testament That we are to follow, we are to follow his example, that is exactly the one that's at the right hand of the Father right now.
There was not one Jesus saying one thing while he was on earth, and now there's another Jesus at the right hand of the Father saying something else?
No.
The very same Jesus that we read about in our Bibles is the very same Jesus right now That is at the right hand of the Father.
Now let's think a little bit about this.
What is the difference between the text that the Old Testament in modern translations is translated from And the text that the new Bibles are translated from.
What's the difference in the Old Testament text?
Then we'll talk about the new.
Here's a fact.
And a lot of times facts are dangerous things.
They'll change.
They're a dangerous thing to people's opinion.
But this is a quote and a fact from Defending the King James Bible by D.A.
Waite And he says, so even the main text used by the New King James, New American Standard, the NIV, in the Hebrew is different from that used by the King James Bible.
In addition to the various changes in the Hebrew text, at the top of the page, the footnotes in Kittles, Biblica, Hebraica, suggest from 20,000 20,000 to 30,000 changes throughout the whole Old Testament.
20,000 to 30,000 changes.
Now we're going to show you some of them, and we're going to show you that in the New Testament, which is much shorter, it's even worse.
Now, Romans chapter 3, verse 1 and 2.
And I tell you what, if you just believe the Bible, And just trust what God says, and you have a little bit of common sense, and you don't let some Johnny Wonderboy preacher twist you around, you'll come to truth.
Now in Romans chapter 3 verse 1, What advantage then hath the Jew?
Or what profit is there of circumcision?
Much every way chiefly, because that unto them were committed the oracles of God.
God chose the Jewish people to write and preserve His Word.
Now, let's say we've got a decision to make.
Now here, if you don't know anything about anything, here in door number one, we have the Hebrew Masoretic Text.
Now, here in door number two, we have a German text that was done by German scholars in the 20th century.
Now, which one would you go for?
To me, it's easy.
The Orals of God were committed to the Jews.
I'm going to go with the one the Jews did.
That's what I'm going to do, because the Oracles of God were committed unto them.
Now, one of the biggest frauds is the New King James Bible, where people think that, boy, this is just the King James with the these and thous taken off.
Look at the introduction page, look at the preface to your New King James Bible, if you have one, and you will find this.
For the New King James Version, the text used was the 1967-1977 Stuttgart edition of the Biblical Hebraica.
Now, Stuttgart, that sounds a little German because it is.
This was a text developed by German higher critical scholars In the 20th century, differing, as Dr. Waits said, up to 30,000 places, with frequent comparisons being made with the Bomberg edition of 1524-25, the Septuagint Greek version of the Old Testament, and the Latin Vulgate!
Oh yeah!
In the New King James Version, they pulled on the Latin Vulgate, they left out the Hebrew Masoretic, yeah, we'll go with the German text, we'll sprinkle in a little Latin Vulgate.
Now, let's show one, well I could do a lot of this, but let's just show you one place where the absolute perversion of God's Word takes place in the New King James Bible.
Now, in Genesis chapter 12 and verse 7, I'll read it to you in the New King James Bible, or I'll read it to you first in the King James Bible.
In Genesis chapter 12, Verse 7, this is the KJV, And the LORD appeared unto Abraham, and said, Unto thy seed, S-E-E-D, will I give this land?
And there he built an altar unto the LORD, who appeared unto him.
The land promised unto Abraham was made unto the seed.
I'll read from the footnotes of the Schofield Bible.
This came out in the early part of the 20th century, and it was the other night.
We replayed on a Sunday Night Live a broadcast I did with Brian and Dan Badondi on his channel, the cult that cridnapped Christianity.
Yeah, that's what they are.
Yeah, I said cult.
Yeah, that's right.
In Genesis chapter 12, this is the footnote in this Goldfield Bible.
For Abraham and his descendants, It is evident that the Abrahamic covenant made a great change.
Notice that seed is changed to descendants.
Now, this is where Zionism gets its foothold, which Mr. Schofield was a champion of.
Now, let's read it in the New King James.
Genesis 12, 7.
In the New King James, then the Lord appeared to Abraham and said, To your descendants!
So now, What was in the early 20th century in the footnotes of the Scofield Bible, they're now in these modern translations.
It's a descendant, you see.
And so that means you've got genetic election, you've got genetic salvation.
You've got Zionism.
That's why all of these Zionist ministries, they're going to get away from the King James, and they're going to find some other way, because you don't get Zionism out of the King James Bible, you can get it out of the New King James and all of these other apostate Bibles.
Follow suit.
Now, in the real preserved Word of God, let's look at the Galatians chapter 3, In Galatians chapter 3 and verse 16, the Scripture says this, Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made.
He saith not, And to seeds as of many, but as of one, And to thy seed, which is Christ.
Genesis 12, 7, KJV, seeds, singular, becomes seeds, plural.
The Word of God clearly refutes that.
Let's read it again.
Galatians 3, 16, Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made.
He saith not, and to seeds, as of many, but as of one, and to thy seed, which is Christ.
And then down in Galatians chapter 3 and verse 29, who is the seed of Christ?
And if ye be Christ, then are ye Abraham's seed.
and heirs according to the promise.
We are the heirs of the promise.
If we have faith in Christ, we are the seed of Abraham.
I want to read 1 Corinthians chapter 12, excuse me, 1 Corinthians chapter 2 and verse 14.
I'm also, you know, I'm just an average guy.
I got a curious mind.
I want to know the answers to the questions.
And we work hard here at FOJC to come up with the answers.
But there's a scripture here in 1 Corinthians 2, verse 14.
But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness unto him.
Neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.
Now this scripture tells us that someone that is not born again That they cannot read and understand the Word of God until you're born again and you have the author of the Scripture within you, the precious Holy Ghost of God, you can understand it.
You need to get the author of it in your heart.
Then you're on the way.
Now, let's ask ourselves this question.
If you have to be born again to even read and understand the Word of God, how could someone that is not born again translate or put together a proper text of the Bible.
I would submit unto you that is silly.
Now in 1881 the received text in the Byzantine manuscript stood as the authority unchallenged from the fourth century Until the 18th century, or to the 19th century, in the 1800s.
And in 1881, there were two men of the Church of England, Westcott and Hort, that produced a text that was designed and satanically inspired to replace the Greek received text of the New Testament.
Now what we're saying, you know, I'm not saying here it's, you know, The NIV Bible and all these other translations, they're translated by what's called dynamic equivalency.
That you read a word and that means you put the thought that God means behind it.
Well, number one, our thoughts are not his thoughts, the Bible says.
And our minds can't approach to the thoughts of God.
Now, what the King James is translated by is verbal equivalency.
That means there's a word or two or whatever it takes in the English for every specific Hebrew, Greek, and Aramaic word.
It's a word-for-word verbal equivalency translation.
Now, that's why you can go look up every word in the King James and you can see those words that underlie it there in the Hebrew, Greek, and Aramaic.
And when there's something put in the text which is also preserved, that it's in italics to help you understand what's put there, but even those are there in the preservation of God in that pure holy word.
Now let's just look at a few of the errors, and I can say without being judgmental, by judging righteous judgment, that Westcott and Hort that put together this text in 1881 They were not Christians.
I want to read just a few highlights from a book.
It's called The Heresies of Westcott and Hort by D. A. Waite.
And I mean, believe me, I'm just giving you a few.
They were actually a part of what was called the Ghostly Guild, and they actually printed and reproduced and distributed occult material at the very time they were putting together this text.
That's just a fact.
Now let's just give a few bullet points of the false teachings of these people.
Westcott said, Word was distinct from God, and only essentially God, but not God actually.
You know, this is the old game, in the beginning was the Word, and the Word was God, and the Word was a God.
The Jehovah Witnesses play.
Westcott denied that the Lord Jesus Christ and God the Father could be equal in power, hence denied thereby the deity of Christ.
Westcott, by saying Jesus was only one with God, denied that he was God himself.
And also, Westcott and Hort, they promoted the evolutional theory of Charles Darwin.
They also believed that the first three chapters of Genesis wasn't real history, just fairy tales.
You know, they, these guys that supposedly come up with the text to replace the King James Bible, they didn't believe in the Bible!
They didn't, they weren't even born again.
They denied the very doctrines that are required by Scripture to believe, to be a real born-again believer.
John chapter 1 verse 1, In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
God is, Jesus is the Word, and Jesus is God.
In John chapter 5 and verse 18, Therefore the Jews sought the Moor to kill him, because he not only had broken the Sabbath, but said also that God was his Father, making himself equal with God.
And indeed, he was.
In John chapter 8 and verse 28, Jesus said this, I said, I said, therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins, for if ye believe not that I am he, ye shall die in your sins.
If you deny the full deity of Jesus Christ, you have damned your soul.
And that is such a sad thought.
Now, let's look at Revelation chapter 22 and verse 19.
Revelation chapter 22 and verse 19.
We're going to talk very specifically, excuse me, I'm going to get a quick drink here, Revelation chapter 22 and verse 19, And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life and out of the holy city from the things and from the things which are written in this book.
Now, what these people do, they'll argue, well that's only the book of Revelation, so really?
You, you don't, you can't take away words from Revelation, which they do that too, but you can take away words anywhere else, or we're going to say, we're going to see Moses has this covered on this one also.
You cannot add to or take away the, out of God's Word, according to this, you're going to damn your soul.
Now let's get a few facts here.
How many words did Westcott and Hort take out?
Jack Borman in his research said, Of the 140,521 Greek words in the received text, a total of 2,886 words which were omitted from the received text.
Greek words in the received text, a total of 2,886 words which were omitted from the received text.
2,886 words taken out by Westcott and Hort.
And a lot of them were right in the Book of Revelation.
Now I tell you what, we're going to have a little quiz time on FOJC Radio, Friday Night Live.
Maybe some of you in the chat would like to venture a guess, and maybe some of you know.
But between the New King James and the English Standard Version, and the New American Standard Version, which one do you believe takes the most words out?
Between the New King James, the New American Standard, and the English Standard version, which one do you believe is the worst and takes the most words out?
And we're going to give you the results here, and it might shock you, but here's the ugly facts.
In the King James Bible, there are 788,280 words.
788,280 words.
In the New American Standard Version, they take out a staggering 5,143 words.
Over 5,000 words taken out.
So you see, Westcott and Hort, they start in the text, they take out 2,886, and then when they're translated from this text, it gets worse.
Now it's over 5,000.
The English Standard Version, Which is upheld by so many of these bright lights out there.
It's such a great scholarly Bible.
It takes out 5,465 words.
Over 5,000 words when the Bible says, warns, you better not add to or take away.
And where are you at when you encourage and promote and try to get your spiritual truth?
from these Bibles.
Now, the worst of those three, by far, almost tripling them in the amount of words.
And you see, this is the big fraud, because the New King James Bible, you know, that's people, they want to make you think that's safe, but it's not.
The New King James Bible takes out 17,830 words.
17,830. Abomination to God.
And if you want just an absolute demonic clown show, the New International Version takes out 60,311 words.
You know, that verse in the Book of Revelation doesn't mean a thing to them.
It doesn't mean a thing, but I believe that it will, when they stand before the Word of God, before the judgment power of God.
Now also, Let's look in the book of Deuteronomy.
And I want to read a scripture in Deuteronomy.
And I want to read in the fourth chapter.
Deuteronomy chapter 4 and verse 2.
Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you.
Neither shall ye diminish aught from it, that ye may keep the commandments of the LORD your God, which I command you.
Don't mess with the Bible.
I don't want so much as one word tampered with.
I want every word that God gave, because it's pure, it's holy, and it's right.
My goodness, 61,000 words!
You know, this is just a satanic abomination.
That's all that is.
Nothing less than that.
All right.
We'll see if we'll go for here.
If I can get my pages unstuck here.
My pages are done and sticking together on me.
And as a matter of fact, I think that's the end of my notes.
I think that's all we're going to cover today.
So there we go.
That's why I don't have another page there.
That's the end.
All right then.
Well, We're going to close here, and we just have begun here to hopefully give people some just basic facts.
Isn't it ridiculous?
How ridiculous?
You know, we have a Bible.
And where is it?
It's obviously the King James, and it's not these Bibles that take out thousands and thousands of God's Word.
60,311 words.
That's amazing.
Now, I'm going to close out this teaching for this evening, and as I said earlier, we have some special guests here with us from Texas, the Smiths, and I'm going to have Brother Smith come on, Brother Adam, and Brother Adam is going to come back here and he's just going to greet you all, and then Brian is going to give some announcements, and then we're going to have a song That sister Donna wrote.
And then I'm going to come back and I'm going to give you a big high five and take a side of care.
So brother Adam Smith from Texas.
Come on and greet the people.
Howdy, everybody.
Howdy.
How are y'all doing?
Good to see you, brother.
Brian.
Uh, it's a.
Pleasure to be here.
Brother David opened his home up to us last night, and we met a lot of great folks here.
Got to meet Sister Donna as well, and it's been fantastic.
These folks are real.
What you see on TV is the way they live their lives, and that's pretty exciting.
How are things going in Kentucky?
Everything is going good.
We are in a dry state, but then, you know, all of a sudden during this program, it come a hurricane flood, but it is getting super hot, Adam.
Super, super hot this way, my friend.
Well, you know, my wife is kind of from your neck of the woods.
You all might know some of the same people.
I don't know if she's going to poke her head in here or not.
Stephanie, are you going to say hello?
She's a little camera shy, but that's all right.
But, uh, so yeah, it's a great sermon.
Uh, you know, we've, we've been using the King James for a long time now, and I used to be a new King James person thinking the same thing.
It was the, the these and the dowels were taken out of it.
And, uh, well, I learned that and, uh, I love the King James.
It's great.
I don't mind the these and the dowels personally.
I mean, it's kind of cool, you know, and, uh, but yeah, it's, uh, it was a great, great lesson.
I'm looking forward to more of that.
And uh, I don't know what, do you have some, some stuff you want to talk about?
Oh yeah.
Um, so Adam, I will, I want to tell you that you and your wife are a blessing for traveling all the way from what, Texas?
So yeah, thanks for traveling so far to come out and fellowship with Don and David.
So it's a blessing.
Yeah.
I'm glad to have you on here, Adam.
Yeah, I have a few things I want to announce, everybody.
Before we get into the program for Sunday, Sunday is going to be a new series.
It's going to be Mystery Conspiracy Theater.
It's going to be Indiana Jones Decoded.
We did a Back to the Future Decoded program not too long ago, several, about last year, several months ago.
We're going to start doing a new series introducing it to Sunday Night Live.
You're really going to enjoy it.
Like always, it's going to be at 7 p.m.
Central Time and 8 p.m.
Eastern Time.
Join us for that, but it's going to be called Indiana Jones Decoded.
That will be this Sunday on the 16th, like always, at 7 p.m.
Central Time and 8 p.m.
Eastern Time.
You'll really enjoy that.

When I was a little boy, upon my mama's knee, she told me of the Lord, who died upon the tree.
She said, son, now there'll be days when you won't know what to do.
But Jesus would be with me and help to get me through.
Oh, talk to Him, run to Him, He'll always be your friend.
He'll love you, he'll help you, and keep you to the end.
That little country church where Mama used to go, Holds a lot of dear memories, oh how she loved it so.
We'd go every Sunday, and sometimes weekdays too.
For she really loved the Lord, and I know he loved her too.
He'll always be your friend.
He'll love you, he'll help you, and keep you to the end.
Now I remember old Jess, standing tall in the view.
And when he read the Bible, God was close, we all knew.
Because he read with understanding, that all could see.
And he probably learned it all from time spent down upon his knees.
Talk to him, run to him, he'll always be your friend.
He'll love you and help you and keep you doing Now Aunt Lucy was sweet Even though she couldn't hear her And when she sang a song, her eyes were filled with tears.
For she sang of the Lord, who had saved her dear soul.
And she told of his love, how it cleansed and made her whole.
So talk to him, round him, he'll always be your friend.
He'll love you, and help you, and keep you healthy.
Mama, we get quiet and say, Child, trust in Jesus, for He's the only way.
You have hope in this life, son.
And peace along the way.
Because life is just a paper, Spent here on this earth.
Don't spend too much time, son, Worrying about what you're worth.
Just talk to him, rendezvous him, He'll always be your friend.
He'll love you, he'll help you, And be keen to be, Just talk to him, run to him.
He'll always be your friend, yeah.
And he'll love you, and help you, and keep you, to you.
Da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da, da-da-da.
