Big Mac Bowl going to be in 2nd Peter tonight. 2nd Peter chapter 1

wasn't too long ago just now is probably about 40 or 50 years ago 30 years ago. Came out with the first Star Wars Star Wars Episode 4 the course, everybody was drafted to a government with boy. That was a it was a great choice, of course. Truth came out later that now we just made it all up. But you know what the time everybody believe we might call it as to buy El Regio and it was a cunningly devised fables. Of course, they had a political purpose there for the USSR there in 5 chapter 1 beginning and verse 16. It says but we have not followed cunningly devised fables when we may know not to use a power and comment about our Lord Jesus Christ by Witnesses of his majesty for he reveal it was received from God the Father honor and Glory when they're can suck a voice to him, The excellent Glory. This is my beloved Son in whom I am well pleased and this voice with Came From Heaven weed her when we were with them in the Holy mount. Peter is recalling what happened and I fully voice that came down. This is not make this all get together secretly and privately and have this little secret meeting about how we're going to convince the world that Jesus is the messiah. They want cunningly devised fables as our government put out Star Wars and how how about I had a purpose it was ultimately a cunningly devised Fables. These are not idle Tale the main thing but undoubtedly truth in that concern is the gospel is not a cunningly devised fables there or not. Would the one who had the devil or convenience of any number of men who by cunning craftiness Endeavor to deceive reset the way of Salvation by Jesus Christ was eminently the counsel of God the most excellent Comics variant of in the infinitely wise Jehovah. It was he that invented this way of saving Sinners by Jesus Christ whose power and common are set forth in the gospel. And the Apostle preaching was making was a making of these things gnome. Portinos we work out the world today. We can see all kinds of these cunningly devised fables these these really smart. ultimately the Delight most of them put out there to divide and divide separate. I was watching the article news clip several several months ago. I was talking about this information and how how the media and how the USSR even was trying to promote and push out this misinformation.

And it was just interesting that I thought of that but you know, how often is it that we get this information that we get things that the test not true. But won't come to God's word. We don't have to worry about is this really God's word or is this the something that men made up the world's going to tell you it's a commonly device people. They're going to tell you know, you know, he might have been a good teacher you might have found some but you know, you still can't rationalize these things scientifically. The standard for you know, what is devise a bowl with real is what what what can we rationed? What can we scientifically prove or is that what it is viable now for some of their own beliefs, that's not really the standard. But here but not found these cunningly devised fables as he says in 2nd Corinthians chapter 4 the Bible tells us seeing they're forcing. We have this ministry. We have received Mercy we fight not what we now of the hidden things of dishonesty not walking craftiness door handling the water God deceitfully by the manifestation of the truth commending ourself to every math contest in the side of God cunningly devised not walking Trophy this year Paul saying, hey, what are you doing this doing this deceitfully, we're not trying to manipulate. We're not trying to work on. My phone will not trying to do what we want. He's trying to do what God wants there was just that will come by the manifestation of the truth are showing of the truth. They commend ourselves to have me a process inside of God. The Bible wasn't developed. It wasn't given by men crafty book. This is how you know, we can work this all together and we can make things look real good and man can make things look real good. But ultimately, the only thing that's going to stand it's going to be the truth only have going to stand just going to be the water God the Bible tells us it Matthew Chapter 5. Not one God wants you to self pass away from wall to all teacher field

bounce houses in first gone yet

in at the wheel of man will pass away the lust of the flesh the lust of the eyes and the pride of life will pass away but do so, I would do it the will of God abideth forever who serves going to do what's right in the world. This word of God is going to last forever. It's not going to go away.

Heaven Nor shall pass away my word shall not pass away while tells us that continuing if not followed cunningly devised fables what we may know not to you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but why Witnesses of his majesty? They wanted to make known Jesus Christ stop boy. You know how applicable is that to us today that we are here to make known Jesus Christ. Bounce houses in Matthew 28:18, the Bible says all nations baptizing them in the name of the father and of the Son and the Holy Ghost teaching them to observe all thing. What's up with you and low I'm with you always even unto the End Amen. You have all rights to go forth and to declare my name to tell people about me and go ye therefore she told me she found hiding name of the Father the Son and the Holy Ghost The day you going to go you're going to teach them to go to baptize them to observe all things with you. To talk because we're not following some crafty book something developed by man because the water God I can't stand forever because of how true it how truthful and how concrete would God is we can go for the week and proclaim the word of God and we don't have to worry about it not coming through. We don't have to worry about its trustworthiness. It is completely trustworthy. Course, you know the Skeptics nowadays will you know, we think there might have been some errors in the translations?

There might have been some sort of politics going on at the time. And well, you know, they kind of have to throw that in because of that they were in because of where the truck was not not as we would think of the religious and spiritual state of the people and the clergy that

Bible tells us that it was once delivered unto the Saints. Not trusting man. I'm trusting God when I say we have the water God because it's written in his Ward. I'm not trusting. Oh, well, you know Kendall did they're so Wycliffe. I'm not worried about that visual. It's about what God has said in his word that he would preserve it for it to every generation.

We trust the word of God despite the Skeptics despite how they night, They well, you know, it's really not as trustworthy as you may think. We want to trust it and we make it known as they said in Matthew 28:18 through but also in Mark 14 verse that I I am and you just see the son of man sitting on the right hand of power coming in the Clouds Of Glory here. We talked about him making known his power and glory in Jesus there when he stood before Pilate in about 14,000 and you're going to see Jesus Christ. You're going to see me coming in power and Glory. Course that message didn't sit well with them for the purpose that these could fulfill what was written and that he could complete salvations plan. Will make known his power to make known his coming in March 13th. First twenty six the Bible tells us is this in Jesus speaking in says I'll call Stonybrook 20 for what is those days after that tribulation start shopping dolphins in the moon shall not give her light and the stars from Heaven softball in the powers that are in heaven shall be taken and then the child AC the Son of Anarchy coming in the clouds with great power and Glory. Gary says they're going to see us coming or we tell people hey again.

We're telling them the truth. We're telling them what's in God's voice only trying to tell them what they're going to find out one day. We just hope that if they trust the word of God trust the Lord before that day comes

I'll pay the water God not not it cunningly devised Fables.

Till he goes on to tell us.

Are in 2nd Peter chapter 1 turn back over there? When we made known unto you the power and the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and will I witness has of his majesty. Here Peter course Peter was one of the three that went with Jesus on to the Mount of transfiguration and got to see Jesus Christ transfigured before them. Cibis Christ. And it's all is good and His glory and majesty and I don't really believe that it was all an employee Majesty because we see later on Paul on the road to Damascus. That's the end is blinded by the great light. And yes, you're gone to the Mount Transfiguration. They CDs transfigure and yet they're not Blinded By the Light and they have recognition of Jesus. They have recognition of Moses. They have recognition of them. So clearly they're not Blinded By the Light there there just wasn't even fully unavailable all his glory before them. Horse going back also to Moses Moses on Mount Sinai see the Lord the Lord boy and gods as well. You know, you can't live and see me face-to-face with The Rock and I'll put my hand over your eyes when I pass by and you can see the back of me. It stalks the Bible talk about the employee that we're shining even then was Moses wasn't blinded by that go either wasn't fully and figured it was for Paul. There was such a blinding light.

It goes on here it he's talking about being the eyewitness of his majesty. is there

the Bible tells us talking about being eyewitnesses and Dawn chapter 1 verse 14 in the world was made flesh and dwelt among us and we beheld his glory the glory as of the only begotten of the father full of grace and truth Johnson say we saw we were eyewitnesses we beheld the glory of the only begotten of the father

John got to see that as well course later on if they're going to talk about the men who saw the resurrected Christ. Bible talks about that as well How they saw them they were more than one. I don't act like we saw at the same time cause you know, the Skeptics are still trying to say well maybe they were all of them were hallucinating and they really. Know anyone who would hold to those with the commonly devised table. They're trying to merge what they know of science, which is always growing and what they know of God. We should be down in God's word is concrete and is complete we are science is incomplete. So obviously you can trust us something complete.

Going back to trusting the word of God here. want to discredit the resurrection of discredit Jesus Christ, but he always says hey we dancers we saw the only begotten of the father.

You're also in Mark captain on talks about the Mount of transfiguration in the area says after 6 days. He's has take take it with him Peter and James and Donna deleted them up into high mountain apart by themselves and he was transfigured before them.

And his raiment became shining exceedingly white as snow so I know for I can wipe them and there appeared on to him Elias with Moses and they were talking with Jesus Peter answered and said unto us Masters good for us to be here but us make three Tabernacles one for these and one for Moses and one for life for the worst. Not what to say when they were sore afraid. They're there. He was transfigured before them, and he was talking with Elias and talking with Moses. You don't think about it hoses. He's been off the scene for thousands of years. Elias has been off the scene for hundreds of years and hear their front back in. I'm pretty sure you know, they weren't talking about. Hey, so this is what they're wearing nowadays. Got to figure you know, it's been a hundred years thousands of years for that kind of clothes are not talking about the Earthly things are talking with you about having the thing talking about the Plan of Salvation.

How this is going to go he's going to have to die for the sins of the whole world Moses course outside of this telling them haters going to be a product of your own brother and him will you here making reference to Jesus Christ their course Moses lifting up the serpent there? Job, 3 calling that back to Nicodemus is my say it was lifted up the serpent even so must the son of man be lifted up.

Your nose is not really knowing the whole complete story and how that was going to work at that time. Now, maybe three alliances. Well then. here in dispensing was that they representing across the law and the prophets and we know Jesus after his resurrection on the road to Emmaus with talk with them and expounded from the law and the prophet all things concerning yourself.

So we know that they were both spoke and prophesied of Jesus Christ.

But they were eyewitnesses. There are keeps Christ and I'll take the only begotten a son. That's what he received from God the Father honor and Glory when there came a voice from the excellent Lloyd. This is my beloved Son in whom I am well pleased. He said hey, Jesus Christ. He receive honor and Glory from God the Father. The Bible is inside. You're one of the places I wasn't docu chapter 3. in Matthew chapter 3 pink and white run their last chapter 3 verse I'll be starting verse 13 and says then come and seizures From Galilee to Jordan Unto Dawn to be baptized with John for Batum said I have I have need to be baptized and comes down to me and he's just answering said unto him suffer. So to be with us to come with us to feel alright dismiss then he slept with her. At least when he was baptized when I'm straight Way Out of Water lower the heavens were open and lighting upon me. Hello a voice from Heaven saying this is my beloved Son in whom I am. Well pleased. This is the first time that that's recorded with the heavens were opening. This is my beloved Son. This is Jesus is my son and I am well pleased in him God. The father was well pleased at the baptism of Jesus Christ. Bible gevonden Excelsior Dock and 1st Peter Is there came such a voice to him from the excellent Glory? This is my beloved Son in whom I am. Well pleased as a father gave Glory and Honor Jesus Christ in Isaiah. God says

With any luck with your Idols course then being in the time of idolatry in the nation of Israel and his wheel. They were involved in idolatry. They were worshipping Baal. They were worshipping.

Cop that terrible mom had made and curing with another. The fact that he's a God to Jesus Christ. It's just another fact or proven to show because he's not going to Sherry for a Yeti gives is going to Jesus Christ real one, of course the tree with all the scriptures that you read one touching the matter of Jesus and God d one that they are one.

In John 17 Verses 4 and 5. This is Jesus and he's praying. He says also that way we'll get the contacts these Woods fake Jesus and lifted up his life to have any said father The Hours come. Bye son may also glorified Z has almost giving them power off with that. He should give eternal life to as many as thou Hast given him on this life eternal that they may know these the only true God and Jesus Christ whom thou Hast and I are glorified DeAndre. I finished the work that I need to do and now old father glorify Val me with thine own self with the glory was I had with these before the world was Jesus Christ when he praying his prayer to God you just hate are glorified you going to find me and it wasn't so wet Jesus Christ be glorified. It was as you reread the first who said that the Sun May glorify

Coursera your $0.05 an hour for the bullfighter Only With Thine Own Self with the Google which I had which would I had with the before the world was just got father that I had with you before the world was with your glorified me with that not so that I can call it to myself. But with that kind of Floyd I can give that glory. To me. I got what a what a what an example. Got it. as believers

it's not wrong to want to be glorified not so that we can say look how great I am. Look what I've done but so we say look what he's done. Look at Jesus Christ. Look at God the Father. Look at what they've done.

Jesus Christ's example says Hey Google find me so that I can go up by the he says he receives his 40 with excellent. This is my beloved Son in whom I am. Well pleased this in this voice which came from heaven we heard and we are with them in the Holy mount. It heard the voice they will they will also heard it.

Are Reese's in whom I am well pleased to say that gives further instruction meant to say hear him. the Bible tells us

mark

Mark chapter 9 once again

Text Darren verse 7 says there was a cloud that overshadowed them and a voice came out of the closet thing. This is my beloved Son hear him.

God Almighty says Hey listen to Jesus Christ listen to his Ward.

Making the connection that the ward with mayflash we have the word of God here for us. We should be taking keys to the water. God to hear it to do it to a band.

That excellent voice with came from boy for 5, Jesus Christ. Got here is this is my beloved Son in whom I am well pleased. What a bowl. Be pleasing. the Lord God Almighty

how to imagine how to send them that Me and Stan full it. Wicked as we are yet, we could be pleasing to the Lord God Almighty, but it is our desire then when we get to have any say Well done thou good and faithful servant. What is Isle of goal is to please God just says Jesus was able to please God Almighty. So out of our desire to be our desire to please the Lord God Almighty as well.

How to how we're going to please you by keeping his word is what is completely trustworthy. It's not a cunningly devised Fable. It wasn't something that man put together that man develop that know it was God Almighty to do it and to pay it then this will be well pleasing to the Lord closing I'm going to say was Trump you John chapter 17

Here is it in John 17 verse 14. I have given them Thy word the word and the world have hated them. They're not open world. Even if I am not of the world. I pray not. Doctors taking all the wolf without you keep them from Evil for they are not of the world even as I am. Not a St. 529 Water Street into the world even so have I sent them into the world. For their sakes I sanctify myself so I might be Sanctified through the truth is desire. Who else was not to be taken out of the world? That would be kept from the evil that is in the world and that we could be Sanctified through the truth truth that we should be a witness until his also mentioned in Matthew 28 that we should go into all the world. Batman teach our nation and baptize in the name of the Father the Son and the Holy Ghost and teach them to observe all things. Togo's in Matthew, that would be salt. Both of the world. You would be the light and be Salt and Light would be making a difference where we are. And when we've done this then we can be well pleasing to God the Father when we have taken heed to work and have obeyed the word the word that right here talks about them keeping the Warriors cuz I spank I've give them my word. It's God's desire that we would take his word and we would hold on to it. No one got its trustworthy knowing that it's going to last forever and I threw his Ward and keeping others wondering of his wife we can go if I God the father and we can go over by Jesus Christ. It's a desire.
