Okay, very important that you understand that God's prophets and his wise men are way different
than the devil's prophets and his wise men.
And if thou say in thy heart, how shall we know the word that the Lord hath not spoken?
This is how you know whether people are false prophets.
This is the recipe that he tells you.
This is how you figure it out.
When a prophet speaketh in the name of the Lord, if the thing follow not nor come to
pass, that is the thing which the Lord hath not spoken, but the prophet hath spoken it
presumptuously, thou shalt not be afraid of him.
So when a prophet, anybody that says that they're a prophet or they can tell the future
or that they can divine your dreams or, you know, all that hand palm reading and all that
other garbage, astrology, your star signs, there's people that specialize in doing that.
There's psychic shops all over the city, in Vancouver, in Portland, Oregon, you know,
that say psychic, you know, but I bet you they can't tell you the winning lottery numbers.
Anyway, so, you know, I'm sorry, but this is, I'm not buying this garbage.
I'm not buying it.
The garbage that says that the wise men were astrologers and magi, okay, it's garbage.
God's not going to tell us to do something over and over and then use forbidden practices
and people that commit abominations to reveal his only begotten son into the world.
I'm sorry.
I just don't believe that, okay?
And I've heard it, you know, over and over again, it's in all the stupid study guides
and all the Bibles.
It's ridiculous.
God's not, I mean, in this chapter, in chapter 18, it clearly says don't do these things
and then God's just going to use diviners and astrologers to come and reveal, he's going
to come and reveal this.
I mean, it's ridiculous.
So these guys were, these guys were saved men.
That's what I believe.
I believe that these wise men were saved people that God prepared them and he showed them
what, you know, he showed them where the star was going to be, you know, and it's, he gets
it from the Bible.
They found that in the Bible and I'll show you that here in just a little bit, but this
is where this retarded belief about the Magi comes from.
It comes from the various Bible perversions.
I don't call them versions.
I call them perversions, the NIV, the ESV, the NLT, the HIV, the, you know, all these
other ridiculous modern Bible versions.
Listen to what the NIV says, okay?
So Matthew chapter two, verse one, and then listen to what the NIV says.
Look at it in your King James Bible, but listen to what I'm saying, okay?
The NIV, and we only use the NIV and other things to show how they're not right compared
to this book right here, okay?
After Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea during the time of King Herod, Magi from the
east came to Jerusalem.
That's pretty clear, huh?
Magi.
But there's a little, in the NIV if you look, it says, the traditional rendering is wise
men.
That's what it says in the little footnote, okay?
So that's the NIV.
The NASB, and you know, some of the modern versions got it right, but you know, the most
popular ones, you know, the ones that all these mega churches use and everything, the
NASB, this is a favorite, it's supposed to be more, you know, correct than the King James.
Matthew chapter two, one, NASB says, now after Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea in the
days of Herod the King, Magi from the east arrived in Jerusalem.
So they're saying Magi, the King James Bible says wise men, right?
The living Bible, Matthew two, one, Jesus was born in the town of Bethlehem in Judea
during the reign of King Herod.
Okay, I missed part of that verse.
I think I didn't, okay.
So I'm just going to skip down to this one, New World Translation.
This is the Jehovah's false witness Bible version, Matthew two, one, after Jesus had
been born in Bethlehem of Judea in the days of Herod the King, look, instead of behold,
astrologers from the east came to Jerusalem.
So they even call them, they call them astrologers in the New World Translation.
So they believe that they were, you know, these sorcerers, these Harry Potter book reading
people that came over, right?
