All right, welcome to the rod of iron podcast fundamental Baptist breaking down discussions dogma and daily events
I am your host pastor Bruce me here first works Baptist Church joined by the fundamentalists in our church brother Cody and we have brother
Ulysses at the board for the code you get to have you tonight. We're gonna be discussing some spread some subjects about preterism
futurism
Zionism and other isms out there
But we might even get into the subject of Kanye West and his apostasy as of recently he has openly
rejected Christianity
Even though inwardly he rejected it long ago
And so we're just gonna look at some of the clips of some of the statements that he's made about
Christianity and how it really flies in the face of his supporters who said he was a Christian
He said he was saved
The guy is a super wicked person, but it should come as no surprise
And so we're gonna use him as an opportunity to discuss the doctrine of apostasy
So we're looking forward to a great episode tonight brother Cody. Once again, thanks for being here. Thank you. You ready? Yes, sir
Let's get started
You
Often
People who
Expose
dispensationalism
Will realize or when they're studying into it to expose it and see how nefarious it is and everything that's wrong with it
And I'm not talking about I'm not talking about within fundamental Baptist. I'm just talking about within Christians in general, right?
People who are Calvinists or you know reform or whatever when they're looking into it
They have such a knee-jerk reaction against
Dispensationalism that they automatically think that any pre-millennial teaching is probably bad
Yeah, they kind of link pre-millennialism with dispensationalism. And yeah, they gotta throw the baby out with the bathwater exactly
so a lot of times
They lean more towards preterism. Well, that's ominous or our preterist. Oh, are they yeah like James White Jeff Durbin
Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah, they're all they're all about ushering in the kingdom. Right, right. And so
Becoming a preterist is
often a result of their extreme rejection of
Dispensationalism and you can see why because the the major marker of
Dispensationalism aside from Zionism is the preacher relation rapture and the preacher of rapture is like a hallmark
Doctrine of a lot of churches especially Baptist churches. Yeah, and so when they start looking into it
It realized what a fraud it is and how the secret rapture is wrong
They end up the pendulum swings to the opposite extreme where now they think it's all about preterism
And so that's where this guy was leaning towards and it sounded like he wasn't necessarily 100% convinced
It just sounded better
Than in the pre-trip. Yeah, and I've had preterists listen to my sermons and they I think they still do
I have this one preterist guy. I don't know if he's still listening to my stuff, but he he loves all of my sermons
He loves when I preach against hard against sin and all of the cultural
topics
But when I start preaching on eschatology and times he hates it
He despises it and so but they love it when I preach against
dispensationalism and
Zionism and the preacher of rapture
Because their ideas kind of line up with what I'm preaching against right, right? I mean, but their alternative is wrong though
Yeah, you know, it's funny because both the preacher of rapture and preterism
They're both false teachings found in the Bible that are taught taught by false prophets in the yeah
Exactly because you have the pre-tribulation rapture that is taught in the Bible, but not by men of God, right?
There's like a form of immanency that's talked about in the Bible in 2nd Thessalonians chapter 2
Because you know the Apostle Paul is writing to the church at Thessalonica and he's saying let no man deceive you by any means
For that day referring to the rapture shall not come except to come and falling away first and a medicine be revealed
And he says prior to that let that let not your minds be shaken
How does the verse go it says
Neither by word nor by letter
Asked from us as that the day of Christ is at hand. I'm kind of misquoting in here, but he says
Now we beseech your brethren by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and by our gathering together unto him that you be not
Soon shaken in mine or be troubled not neither by spirit nor by word nor by letter
Asked from us as that the day of Christ is at hand
So he's implying that there's people who are sending letters to the different churches probably the church at Thessalonica
Stating that, you know Christ can come in any moment the imminency of Christ
And so that false doctrine even though we would accredit it to being 200 years old with John Nelson Darby
There's probably people teaching that stuff even in the Bible days because of the fact that there's nothing new under the Sun, right, right?
Zionism is taught yeah, you know preacher relation rapture is taught and
What was the other thing that we said preterism?
Yeah, yeah
Because the Apostle Paul when writing to Timothy talks about hymenaeus and Philetus
But they were teaching that the resurrection is past already
Yeah, and they overthrow the faith of some and it's just like that is preterism
It's teaching that the rapture has already passed. So it's funny
You got these two opposite doctrines in there, you know, they're both fighting each other, but they're actually both false
They're both found in the Bible. Yeah, they're both false doctrines. Yeah
And I think I would agree more readily with those who are preterist than I would with those who are pre-tribbers
Not on preterism because preterist is the teaching that all these things have already passed and that they read completely reject the futurist
Position correct that things are going to come take place in the future. Our view is a balanced biblical view that
Many events have taken place
But not at the exclusion that there is gonna be another fulfillment in the future
So we would call it dual prophecy because the guy asked me he's like, how do you deal with some of these scriptures?
That seem to indicate that these things have already passed like the judgment that came upon Jerusalem in 70 AD
And I basically told them like the way you reconcile it is you look at the elements that have not yet taken place
Yeah, and if they have not yet taken place what are which are some pretty
Crazy things that have not that the Bible talks about explicitly in the book of Revelation
The you cannot say has happened the one world government one world financial system one world
Religion has not yet happened now from a spiritual perspective people can say well, you know
the god of this world is blind in the minds of them which believe not and you know, everyone collectively agrees against
Christianity or you know, you can explain your way through those passages
But the Bible explicitly says that there shall be a great falling away first and that the man of sin shall be revealed the son
of perdition who proclaims himself to be God and so, you know that hasn't happened and then you look at some of their
so-called
Fulfillments of some of what's taking place in the book of Revelation doesn't match up with type Emperor Titus and his army
And they relate that to Apollyon and the locusts
But you know Apollyon and his army wiped out a lot of people
Our excuse me Titus and his army have wiped out a lot of people but Apollyon didn't
You know and his locusts did it in Revelation chapter 9 and so there's obviously
You have to look at the you have to rightly divide the word of truth
Not break it up into seven dispensations
Riley divide means you have to Riley compare scripture with scripture and
Not just think well because this has already happened in this in 70 AD or because Antiochus Epiphanes
Existed and fulfilled what the Antichrist will fulfill in the future
You know, you can't just say well therefore none of these things are gonna happen in the future
we reject futurism the futurist position and
Just kind of hold the position that everything has already taken place
Because realistically speaking not everything in the book of Revelation has taken place and and honestly with with the preterism view where you know
Like you said, you know at the end
They're thinking we're gonna usher in the kingdom and things are gonna get better for Christianity and the world's gonna become christianized
but
Preterists are having a really tough time seeing the world today and what it is today to think that in
Still hold that position. Yeah, things are only getting worse and worse as time goes on
And so it's really hard for them to stand by that when they see things are only getting worse for Christians
Well, you know, what's interesting is that you know people who end up switching to a preterist position
Do so in light of the pre-tribulation rapture and Zionism because they see how nefarious it is
They can they can see how it's
Ushering in the imminence of the Antichrist. Yeah, you know and that that Antichrist is going to be a Jew and
You know, they can look at all of the evidence that the Bible provides and compare it
Against the preacher relation rapture and Zionism and say whoa, this has an evident agenda for a new world order
It's it's wicked. It's bad. But the thing is the preterist position kind of has the same thing
Because if they're looking to usher in usher in the kingdom
Meaning that they believe that all Christians at one point or another
Have to permeate society and all political realms and positions of authority and we have to inherit the earth
Well, that does not happen until the millennial reign and it doesn't happen by political means it doesn't happen by you know
Starting businesses, it literally happens when Jesus Christ subjects the earth under his rule and your rules it with the rod of iron
You know, but the thing is the Antichrist will pull that off for a short season
Once he comes and he establishes the new world order then at that point you have all of whatever
They're gonna call Christian at that time. Yeah permeating all of society political realms
Businesses all of society for that matter and that will be fulfilled. So even the preterist position. Yeah, it's kind of setting up
The the platform for the Antichrist exactly because they're ushering in the kingdom and and they're all
Because their whole goal to is to usher in the kingdom and that's when Jesus Christ will return is once Christians have
Successfully permeated society. So it does set up the same thing for the Antichrist actually, you know
Be the one that you know one thing one thing that preterists can and I think you came from a church
That was majorly preterist, right? Is that what it was?
It was it was like in between it was like a history that the technical theological term where
You know preterists believe that
everything in the Bible has already passed basically and we're just we're in the
Millennial reign and we're just waiting to usher in the kingdom waiting for the new heaven a new earth
But the histories perspective and then we're you know, we're obviously the futurist perspective where you know stuff in Revelation
That's gonna take place in the future. Well, the histories perspective is you know, like the seals are being opened throughout history
So they kind of have almost like it in evolved form or bastardized
It's almost like a bastardization of dispensationalism. Yeah, because dispensationalism has
You know the church ages, right?
So where the dispensationalist will take the seven churches which are in Asia and view each
Church as a particular era throughout biblical history and that we're in the Laodicean era now the preterist on the other hand
Kind of bastardizes that and doesn't use the churches in Revelation 2 & 3 but uses the seals
Yeah, yeah as being certain eras, right right and what I mean according to the preterist what seal are we in right now?
I it's been a long time now and I've had to unlearn a lot of that stuff
but I know like they'll say 1948 World War two and when
Israel got you know, the game back to the land they came back to the land that that was sealed number four being broken
So we're waiting for the fifth seal. Yeah, so they they claimed that these
These Europeans are the pale horse
I mean, it's believable. I
Mean hell's following with them for sure, you know death and hell are following with them. But yeah, that's kind of weird
You know, it's it's it's it's almost like a bastardization of the dispensation of view of church ages. Yeah
The difference is they're using Revelation
Chapter 6 to break up history. Mm-hmm. And so, you know, I am completely against preterism
other than the fact that I do agree with them that some of these things have taken place and
The reason I believe God intentionally did that in the Bible where you have dual prophecy is
essentially to prime the minds of believers for what will come right and you have this happening throughout the Bible where you have a
symbolic representation of
Something that has not yet taken place or of a person who has not yet come
I mean how many symbolic representations we have of Jesus Christ in the Old Testament through the Kings through different leaders
How many?
Representations of the Antichrist do we have in the Old Testament, you know picturing someone who's gonna come in the future
Even for example, if you were to look at Aaron, you know who?
Kind of represents the Antichrist in a particular story where he's creating the golden calf and you know
he's causing the people to worship it or actually he pictures the false prophet and
Then Moses comes down from the mount just as Jesus Christ will come down from heaven and he's gonna cause them to drink
from the cup of his wrath, you know what I mean, so that's kind of like a
Symbolic representation of something that's gonna happen in Revelation. Yeah, and so a lot of what the Old Testament has
Embodies a lot of what's gonna take place in the future and that's not something that's
Wild or weird because the Bible even tells us that the tabernacle
the
Ark of the Covenant and a lot of the Old Testament
Sacrifices and rituals they were the figures of the true the Bible says
So the children of Israel were to were to participate in these ritualistic things
Ordinances because it was
Foreshadowing something in the future right the animal sacrifices were foreshadowing the sacrifice of Jesus Christ
And so, you know she comes no surprise that God does this throughout the Old Testament where he fulfills a particular prophecy
once
Sometimes twice in order to picture something that's going to happen in the future. Yeah, you know what I mean?
And here's the proof of that
You know in the Old Testament
When the children of Israel for example
You have in Jeremiah or in Isaiah when it talks about the exile of the children of Israel for the rejection of God
He often talks about the fact that he's gonna bring them back, right and that did happen after the seven year
70 year exile when they are taken into captivity by the Babylonians they do return, right?
He says I know the thoughts that I think of you thoughts of peace and not of evil to give you an expected
So he prophesies of their return to the land
But when you look at some of the descriptions of what's supposed to happen when they come back that stuff didn't happen
You know what? I mean?
Like you think about the book of Isaiah where it says that the the wolf shall lie down with the lamb
right and how people are gonna live a crazy amount of years and it has this the
description and the the the wording that he uses it's like
I don't think that took place when they came back
You know what I mean?
The fact that Jesus Christ is present and they're all going to the Mount of God to hear the Word of God
You know all those things even though he's attaching that to the literal return of Israel
after the 70 years
He's attaching a future fulfillment as well
So this is how you determine if it's you know already passed or not
Well, this part is passed because they did return when they believe in the Lord but this
this other
Descriptions that we're getting here of what's supposed to happen has not yet taken place
So he's obviously priming the minds of all believers to realize one day
You know the Israel of the Old Testament
Because they're all dead
They're gonna come back
during the millennial reign to the land of Israel and
You know, they shall build houses they shall inherit houses that they did not build, you know, they shall
Possess vineyards that they did not plant and that does take place in the millennial ring
You know, and so, you know, that is the answer the dual prophecy is the answer to the Preterist. Mm-hmm
So anyways, I mean it's an interesting discussion, you know, and
I'm just thankful predators don't like
Zionism and Israel and all that
But you're in you're into that I mean that's where your church was into for a while, right the
Histo what is it the history history history?
real fancy
Historists view of end times. Is that what it is? Yeah, really niche too. I mean most churches they're either, you know
Postman, you know preterist type or futurist type
So I'm assuming this I'm assuming that preterists are really into politics then. Oh, yeah. I
Remember the pastor of the old church, I mean like every single media thing
They're the types the history types are the ones where they're like the Euphrates River dried up. That's a fulfillment of prophecy
It's like all these historical events that are taking place
like anytime it takes place any historical event is like super relevant to some Bible verse and they'll just pull out something for you know,
Obscure verse from Ezekiel or Jeremiah or something like that. That's so wild because if they're if they're saying that like we
1948 was the fourth seal. Mm-hmm, but then the Euphrates River dries up and they're like, oh, that's a fulfillment. It's like
You just skipped a lot
You just jump clear across like I don't know how many chapters I mean the Euphrates River drying up correct me if I'm wrong
Where's that chapter 14?
Look it up. Let's just let's just you know, I don't have this memorized right here
Let's see
Actually, I think that's
Well that takes place in Revelation 19, but there's there's the the talk of it as I think it's either chapter 14
Oh, no, it's chapter 16, right?
Euphrates how's it going everyone?
Yeah, 16. Yeah, 16. Yeah
So like you you you jumped a lot of chapters there
and in fact that doesn't take place until the very almost nearing the very end of Daniel 70th week and
You're already into the the the trumpets and vials of God's wrath
so you're skipping chapter or the seal for and you're going all the way to because the Euphrates River drying up according to the
Book of Revelation is to make way for the kings of the north and
the kings of the north in its context is referring to revelation 19 where the
Antichrist the false prophet and his armies come to fight against Jesus Christ in what's known as the Battle of Armageddon
So it's drying up so they can so when the Euphrates River dried up we didn't see any armies there
Yeah, this is dried up rivers dry up folks. That's what happens. It's like it's like the fifth time
It's dried up in my lifetime or so. Seriously. I mean, I mean just because a river dries up
And and it just so happens that it's like this so stupid thing with the clips the Nineveh thing
You know the big Nick guy putting out this false doctrine
Stating that because the Eclipse that's gonna take place on April 8th is gonna cut across parts of
Parts of the United States and that it's covering like certain cities or towns called Nineveh that it's a it's a Bible
Fulfillment and he says that what it's fulfilling is what Jesus said that as Jonas is three days and three nights in the heart
Of the earth so shall the Son of man be three days and three nights
I don't know as Jonas was three days and three nights in a well's belly
So shall the Son of man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth
Because you know Nineveh you have Jonah and supposedly there's an eclipse
Around Nineveh in those days. It's like what are you talking about? The guy's 2,000 years too late
Yeah, and in the wrong geographical location wrong geographical location because he's quoting
Jesus regarding the resurrection
Yeah, yeah, he's talking of himself and the resurrection which happened 2000 like the guy's wait
It's like someone going going, you know a thousand years later took a look at that Eclipse
It's like dude, you're like a thousand years too late that Eclipse already passed
I wonder what he's gonna do when it passes and nothing happens gonna shut up and not say anything
Just move on, you know, and he's just like God is it possible that God is judging America?
Well, let me just tell you you don't need an eclipse to know that God is judging America
Okay, the celestial bodies do not tell us whether God is judging America
The Bible is telling us whether God is judging America, you know
The Bible specifically says in Jeremiah chapter 10
That we're not supposed to be dismayed at the signs of heaven for the heathen are dismayed at them
He's literally, you know, cuz he didn't look at the sky. They'll look at a solar eclipse
And you know, they're just like God's about to like destroy them whereas Christians look at the solar eclipse
I'm like, that's cool right on nice nice
You know
Sick
Would you be like cool, you know the people that are in the city of Nineveh in America?
They're just like well, that's cool. Well, that's cool. And then you go about your day
But the heathen are dismayed at the signs of heaven. Mm-hmm
They observe times and months and years
They think the celestial bodies have a bearing on their spiritual life or on the life of America a wicked and adulterous
Generation seeketh after a sign and there's and the funny thing is that's the first he quotes
And there shall no sign be given to it. It's just like he's basically telling his audience that he's a wicked adulterous person
Mm-hmm, because he's seeking after that sign
Yeah as a spiritual sign
We shouldn't be dismayed at the signs of heaven
You know, God has allowed the celestial bodies to exist so that we may give glory to him the heavens declare the glory of God
and
You know looking at Saturn or Mars or the moon does not affect our spiritual well-being
Whatsoever. Yeah, right because at the end of the day we know that our
walk with God whether we were blessed or cursed of God whether we're punished or
God has favor on us is based upon our obedience to his word not based upon the celestial bodies. We're not Aztecs here
Mayans
Hoping that you know
The the heavenly bodies aligned perfectly for us or something. I mean, that's literally astrology
Yeah, right based in your life on enough off of where the moon is or something
Just like a Christian horoscope at that point
Yeah, it's based in what do you your beliefs based upon the stars of heaven, you know
And different planets and stuff aligning. I mean, there's just Christian horoscopes at that point
Yeah, and we're not supposed to be dismayed at them not base any decisions off of them
But you know the guy big Nick he's doing that because of the fact that he doesn't he probably doesn't even believe it himself
You know and I know some people are just completely deceived and they might teach that because they heard it from someone else
but I'm almost like
100% sure that the guy probably doesn't believe that stuff and he knows it's stupid
He knows it's not biblical, but he's just kind of giving people what they want to hear
Yeah, I feel like there's a lot of guys on social media now that they just have their little you know
Pet doctrine that nobody else has ever taught and they just kind of want to teach that because it's something new
It's some new doctrine. Yeah, and it's just kind of like get these Christians all hyped up or something
Well kind of sounds like they just want to be novel. Yeah
Yeah, exactly they want to like a corner of the truth and
They don't really have any authority and they really they're depending upon the ignorance the biblical ignorance of the audience
Yep
Because they just kind of spit out a couple verses and people like whoa
Cuz I literally had someone messaged me today and they're like
Do you think the Eclipse on April 8th means anything and I'm already thinking like this person saw that video
You know, but it's just like it's it's so ridiculous
The person could literally just go to the book of Matthew and see if that's true or not
And they realize oh wait, this is talking about the resurrection. What in the world? Yeah, but you know, this is why it's important that
churches edge
Biblically educate their people on what the Bible clearly says, you know
The Bible tells us preach the word be instant in season out of season reprove rebuke exhort with all long-suffering and doctrine
And then it says why this is for the time will come
When they will not endure sound doctrine
But will heap to themselves teachers having itching ears and shall be turned unto fables
So it's like the reason it's important to preach the Bible to talk about doctrine to rebuke stupid teachings
To reprove dumb ideologies. It's because there's gonna be a time when people can't handle the truth
So they're gonna heap to themselves meaning they're just piling on
Teachers having itching ears and they're gonna be turned into fables meaning like, you know
They're gonna just listen to a bunch of false teachers. They come a dime a dozen. Mm-hmm all teaching the same thing
When I say the same thing just kind of these exotic doctrines or whatever
Yeah, and you know and and leading him into fables and not into the truth, you know
And and in that context he's talking about hymenaeus and Philetus who were preaching that the resurrection was passed already
Go right into the predators
Yeah, exactly. So it's like and you know what like if you if you're to
If you're to look at the the just the most common Christian Instagramer
I'm not talking about an influencer just someone who's a Christian who's an Instagramer and you see who they're following
You know all of the teachers that they're following the Isaiah Saudi bars and picnics
You'll see that they heap to themselves teachers having itching ears
Yeah, I guarantee the majority of people they're following are just a bunch of false prophets
Oh, yeah, and they're all like teaching way different things to like none of them agree on their own doctrines or anything
It's not like Big Nick and a bunch of other guys are also saying the same thing about that eclipse happening
Yeah, it's like all these different doctrines. You know, like the Geneva Bible thing. Oh, yeah popped up a lot now
We're yeah, what's that? I don't know what that guy's name is, but I don't know about long-haired. Yeah
him
Yeah, and he's I mean he's digging himself a really deep piton in hell by attacking the King James
Yeah, and just teaching some frivolous
nonsensical stupid stuff about the King James
It's not even to promote the Geneva Bible, but it's to hate on the kids to hate on the King James
But he's like just literally teaching lies, but we live in a day and age where people don't fact-check things
Yeah, they don't really see if it's in the Bible itself and they don't do the homework
They expect others to do the homework for them
But then they end up putting their confidence at people who are nefarious who are deceiving and being deceived people who are false prophets
And then they're just led astray
Yeah
Just like Big Nick
Like you said if they read a verse earlier
You'd see like a wicked adulterous generation seeketh after a sign and that's the side that it's like the only sign
They're given is the Prophet Jonas. Yeah, which is talking about Jesus Christ's resurrection, right?
And it doesn't take a lot of reason Jesus is literally rebuking
Using the Eclipse as a sign
But you kind of it kind of makes you think like you know what
This generation is gonna be judged harshly
Because of the fact that we have we're so close to the truth
The truth is at our fingertips. The word is neither even in thy mouth and in thine heart
Like we have truth at the tip of our fingers to just fact-check things
We literally I mean when back in the day people just literally had a Bible now we have Bible apps. Yeah, you know you have
Just all types of biblical information at your disposal
You can literally look for the Word of God yourself
And so when you have that much access to the truth and you decide not to seek the truth
When a lie is given to you, well, then your punishment is gonna be that much more harsh
Yeah, you know because there's people out there who are being deceived because they don't have access to the truth
I'm not saying now but you know in times past right they're gonna be punished the simple passed on and are punished
but how much more when you're not when you're given an opportunity not to be a simple person and you're given just a
Liberal amount of information to work with you have no excuse as to why you don't know the truth
Right, you know what I mean? And so, you know, I think a lot of these people want to be deceived sometimes
Oh, yeah
They want to have their ears scratched or itched and they they enjoy the fables
the exotic doctrines and I think I talked about this recently like
There's enough exotic teachings in the Bible. Yeah to just you to satiate the curiosity of
A person and unfortunately, most of these people don't even know those exotic
Exotic stories within the Bible they have to do like the Harry Potter version or something
Not knowing that there's enough exotic teachings in the Bible to go off of and you don't have to be weird about it
It's just already in the Bible. God is sanctioned for you to study it to read it
You don't have to go outside of the Bible
You don't have to look at the stars the wandering stars and the planets and the Sun to you know
Learn something from the Word of God. The word is nigh thee even in thy mouth
You know and so it's like what Romans 10 says say not in thy heart who shall bring Christ down from above
Or who shall descend into the deep to bring up Christ again from the front from what is it from the from the deep?
But what saith the scripture the word is 90 so it's just like you don't have to look up at the sky
Yeah to know what the Bible says
I don't care what Ken Hovind says that, you know, Abraham saw the gospel in the sky or something through the stars or something
You remember that part? Yeah, you're saying that God probably showed Adam the the gospel with the stars and stuff
Yeah, it was like, you know, it went from you know, Virgo to Leo
You know a virgin to a lion
That is so weird, yeah
Yeah, instead of God actually speaking to Adam I don't like like he did
Yeah, like he actually did you know because he walked with him in the pool today, you know instead
He's gonna he's gonna he's gonna do Braille in the sky
You know to me and then just let him figure it out. So stupid. Oh, yeah, especially since I mean you you look at the
Constellations, I mean if you put enough dots there you could come up with any picture that you want
So, I mean people come up with the the Virgo and the Leo on their own. What's that thing? I talked about
When you look at an image?
Pareidolia, Pareidolia. Yeah, you can look at any
Constellation in the sky and make anything out of it
If you give me a group of dots on a piece of paper and give me a pen
I can make anything any kind of image out of those dots. Yeah, so it's it's always subjective
You know what I mean? Whereas the Bible isn't the the the basic truths of the Bible are not subjective, right? They're
Standard, you know what I mean? They're very clear-cut what it is that God wants, you know
The gospel is very clear-cut. And so this whole observance of the skies
Astrology the signs of heaven. It's not something that we should be looking for, you know, and
That's something that the devil's gonna use in the end times
To deceive people because they lust after signs
because the the the false prophet is gonna be given the authority to perform signs and lying signs and wonders and
It kind of looks like this generation doesn't mean much to be convinced of that stuff. Yeah, sadly, you can upload an AI video
Dude has like seven fingers on one hand, but you'll still believe it
Right because AI has a problem has this thing with fingers where it just adds a bunch of fingers per hand
That down yet
It's like they haven't really figured that out, but you upload a video and people would just believe it
You know, you'll get hundreds of thousands of likes
Comments about yeah, this is happening and it's just like no it's not
People are just willing to believe they're willingly to believe a lie
Yeah, so it kind of shows you why God sends them a strong delusion that they should believe a lie because they rejected the truth
You know and what is a rejection of truth? It's when you choose to believe the lie instead
Yeah, because the truth is just kind of out in the open. It is it's right there. It's not subject to change
It's not subjective. It's right there
You have to choose to not believe the truth. Yeah, you know what I mean? So when you have the
false prophet in the end times
calling down fire
from the image and
They're doing all types of line signs and wonders
You know people are gonna readily believe it they're gonna see it on their Instagram be like, whoa, this is
Enoch, this is Elijah. This is God, you know, look he's calling down fire from heaven
And quite frankly a lot of that stuff is gonna be very convincing
Because the Bible talks about that if it were possible it could deceive the very elect
And you know, let me pull up a verse here
In Deuteronomy actually, let me look it up here say something Cody while I look for this
Yeah, there's a lot of different false prophets on Instagram, I agree with what you're saying these people are bad
Let me see there's a lot of crazy teachings on Instagram and social media nowadays
You can really find any
And that's that's kind of the thing with people have an itching ears is
And then they'll follow all these different people because they kind of teach whatever they want to believe
Yeah, which is why you got a lot of the TED talkers to obviously
You got just a lot of people like Mike Todd and Steven Furtick just make people feel good
But then you have like this eschatology type stuff or you know, people have this kind of like
You know corner of the truth, basically
yeah, and here's the thing we don't claim to have a corner of the truth because there's plenty of people who believe like we
Do mm-hmm, and we're not the arbiters of the truth. We know that. Let's see here. Is this the passage?
This is not it to add to that there's a lot of those a conservative
Influencers that are now teaching like doctrine like this guy named officer Taino. I don't know if you heard. Oh, yeah
Yeah, I know that the black guy right? Yeah, but he's like a witness
He's always saying like Jesus not God and everything. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah, like he's super popular in a conservative crowd. Yeah
I can't raise another. Yeah, that's another one. They're buddies. I can't I can't think of the passage right now
Maybe you guys can help me but there's when when God is warning the children of Israel regarding false prophets
He even states that he's gonna give them the ability
He'll even like they'll even perform certain signs
Just to see if people if God's people will like follow them and I'm like paraphrasing here. I'm trying to look for
You guys know what I'm talking about? I'm not coming up with this stuff. It's it's in the Bible folks
Let's see
Requiring but the prophet which I presume to speak a word of mine. It's not Deuteronomy 18. I can't think of the verse right now
I'll end up finding it after the podcast
Let's
See here
It's a very interesting passage that basically
Indicates that there's gonna be instances where God allows certain false prophets to perform certain
13 let me see. Maybe that was it. Oh
If there arise among you a prophet or a dreamer of dreams and giveth thee a sign or a wonder and the sign of the
Wonder come to pass where have you spake unto these saying let us go after other gods
Which thou hast not known and let us serve them
Thou shall not hearken unto the words of that prophet or the dreamer of dreams for the Lord your God proveth you
To know whether you love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul
So it's like there's gonna be people who come with signs and dreams and wonders and it comes to pass
Mm-hmm. So they're like they're like psychics and they're actually like predicting things or they're performing some sort of quote-unquote miracle and
then
The message attached to that is they let us go serve other gods
Well, if they're trying to earn credibility with you through their signs and wonders and you're like, whoa
This guy called down fire from heaven. This guy brought, you know, the AI to life or whatever the image to life
Therefore let's go serve other gods. It's like God's testing you because you're literally supposed to uphold
the truth
over even
Signs and wonders. Yeah, it's very similar to like Janice and jambies with Moses
Yeah, you know it eventually came to a point where they couldn't perform the miracles that Moses was doing
Yeah, and they even told Pharaoh like, you know, this is just from God
Yeah, but Pharaoh still hardened his heart. Yeah was still willing to just believe the miracle or he was he was harding his heart when they
Were performing the miracles prior to that instance
You know
I mean like when he turned the the rivers into blood and all that when Janice and jambies did that he
Chose to follow that instead even though the truth came first Moses did the miracles first instead of that
He just you know had Janice and jambies do their miracle said and he'll just believe that lie
so it's really important for people to know that
Just because someone performs a miracle doesn't mean they're from God
because
By their fruits you shall know them and the fruit that it's referring to is what they say out of the abundance of the heart
The mouth speaketh and by thy words thou shalt be justified and by thy words thou shalt be condemned
And so God wants us to esteem
The words that are coming out of a person's mouth or that he wants us to prove the words that are coming out of
Someone's mouth more than the works that they perform. Yeah
You know what I mean? Because at the end of the day some of these can be done by the power of Satan
and if you choose to
Believe whatever lies they're telling you because of these line signs and wonders then you know what then you don't love the Bible
Yeah, you know I mean, so I don't care if someone claims to be healed by us some faith healer
Yeah, some faith healer comes and he just like heals them and they're like, oh, you know, I was you know
Five foot and now I'm like five foot eight or something. My left leg was shorter than my right leg
I mean, uh, there's a little too close to home there. Sorry for the releases
You know, if he grow if anybody grows you know
If anybody grows because of a faith healer, I want to know what the message is of that faith healer
And you know, he's probably preaching a repent of your sins and if he is a false gospel
Then you know what then I want nothing to do with that guy because he goes against the Bible
I don't care how valid that miracle was and most of these guys are charlatans anyways, yeah smoke and mirrors
But you know if they are able to perform some incredible miracle and claim to be an apostle
What's their message of Jesus Christ in the gospel? And if it's a false gospel
Who gives a rip what kind of miracle they created jennison jambres pride did better than them
The antichrist is gonna do better than them. He's gonna be dead for like three days
Receive a deadly one to the head and his deadly wounds gonna be healed and he's still wicked. That's crazy
Yeah, and people are even believing the lame miracles of today the faith healers of today
I mean imagine what's gonna happen when the Antichrist does
Cuz you kind of wonder like how are these people gonna be deceived in the end times, but that's how yeah
Cuz people are just willingly ignorant
And they're just willing to believe any Tom Dick and Harry who claims to have an ability to perform miracles
But Deuteronomy 13 plainly tells us like God's doing that to prove you, you know, and so
and
Then people apostatize speaking of false promise
Trying to say way there
What kind of people name one?
So
Kanye West Kanye West
You know Kanye West, I mean pull something up brother Elise's from like a couple years ago. What song do you want?
Kanye West is a rapper who has made a lot of news throughout the years and
A lot of Christians went to bat for this guy. Oh, yeah, because
When was that that was like in 2020? I think it was 2019 2020 2021 around there where he I think it was actually
2019. Yeah where he claimed to become a Christian and
He was holding church services
And people Christians were just loving it. Yeah, you know what I mean? And I say Christians loosely
Who's that big boy? You know, I say that term very loosely
But I'm sure there is there's probably some legitimate safe people who were given that guy the benefit of the doubt
Yeah, and I find that people give wicked people the benefit of the doubt when they just don't know the Bible
Mm-hmm, and so, you know, they don't realize that God has given us a
plethora of examples and teachings about
charlatans false prophets, you know false apostles these pseudo Christians
To kind of teach us. Hey, not everyone who says they're a believer is a believer
Yeah, you know, I think Jesus, you know called them like wolves in sheep's clothing
Yeah, but now like Christians don't even think that that's even a thing anymore or something no, they only think of like Joel Osteen
That's it. Oh, yeah, but he's like a wolf
They only see the wolf in wolf's clothing and they think that that's a wolf in sheep's clothing, but they don't realize there's actually like
Deceptive people out there. Yeah, who are really good at deceiving people
Cuz a wolf in sheep's clothing is basically implying like they look talk like a Christian, but they're not a Christian
You have to be aware of these people and the way you could determine if there is a wolf
Under that cloak of being a sheep is by what they say, right? What are some of the things that they're saying?
Well Kanye West he's not a you know, he wasn't a religious person to begin with
But somehow, you know, he just became a Christian, you know
I don't even remember who who supposedly converted him or what it was, but he became a Christian
and all these Christians are just falling over themselves because you know in the mind of like mainstream Christians if we could just get like a
Famous person to be a Christian. It'll do so much for the cause of Christ. Yeah, they'll do a lot for the cause of Christ
They'll do a lot of damage. Yeah to the cause of Christ, right?
That's how they are with any of these celebrities who say Jesus or God or something
They they always they'll take that and they're like, oh man
We got to start like, you know going after Justin Bieber or something like that to really, you know
Spread the gospel out more, you know, Justin Bieber Kanye West or one of these people I think
Was the actor that said Jesus or something Chris Pratt? Yeah, Chris Pratt. Yeah
Yeah, fundamental Baptist is like Jesus Christ is the only way to heaven boo
You know
Chris Pratt's like God
They're all like just losing their minds like
Man, he probably they probably didn't even hear that. He was actually using his name as a as a expletive or something
I'm joking like but I'm sure you know, that's all I have to do is like say one biblical phrase
Say like Bible to Corinthians. Yeah, I was gonna say Donald Trump is a big one too
That person is justified by faith
You know and it's just crazy. So Kanye West is one of them and he was already popular
Even when I was like a young person like when I in my teens cuz he came out when I was like a teenager
And he was already popular, but just within recent years
He claimed to be a Christian and then he was holding these church services. Yeah Sunday services Sunday services were like
He's performing all these songs put up one of a Kanye West's
Church services brother Ulysses. That's a big boy right there. Well, we'll look at him in just a little bit
But um, you know, he just opened up another window another window not play Kanye West gold, dude
Let's see here, you know and so
He's coming to be a Christian
St. Jesus Christ is King. Mm-hmm, and
People are loving it and he's bridging the gap between the unchurched and the churched and so, you know
He has one of these let's just play one of them real quick
Hi everyone mark bardin here at sandy hook promise
On December 14th, we gotta watch this whole thing. No, but skip bro. Skip skip skip
All right, skip to the middle or something
Name repetition
Looks like a bunch of profits of hail
Oh
It looks like a
cult
Or like what's that the Haley's Comet though, what is it that heaven's gate? Oh, yeah
Kind of scary if you walk in on this
Looks like some
Oh
You like good night
All sure the mouse got stuck, I don't know what's going on with the power of God
They're all dressed in these robes
And I think I think you lie was just like being oppressed by a demon
You know, they're all dressed in robes
It looks like a cult meeting
Right, and I think someone from our church had a friend who actually went to one of these church services
Church use that term loosely and he said that like when he got there obviously have to pay to get in by the way
You know, it's not for free can't go to church for free
But he you know, he paid to get in and he said like it just reeked of marijuana and alcohol
I mean it shouldn't surprise you. Yeah, you know, I mean, no way
So it's like they're they're drugged up
They're inebriated and they're doing vain repetition
God's not in all this
And you know
People were claiming that he's just bridging the gap between those who are not in church and those who are and he's opening the doors
But really what it is is just that it's just a bunch of unsafe people right playing church. You know what I mean?
Yeah, it's just a concert but it's just like church-themed. Yeah, it's like a church thing. That's all it is
Yeah, and and here's the thing is that people were literally fooled into thinking this guy was literally a believer
But and they just chose to ignore the years prior he's calling himself a
God, you know, I mean he had the the what is it called the Yeezy tour? Is that what it is?
Yeah, I called Jesus or something Jesus, which is Jesus
You know and people are like, well, you know, he made that song Jesus walks or whatever, you know, but is that really someone's
Right of passage to Christianity
Come on just make a song about Jesus and all of a sudden you're a Christian
It's it's ridiculous. So, you know, he'd said all these blasphemous things prior to becoming a Christian
So then he becomes a Christian and people are like, oh, you know, he's a Christian but now
And obviously it's not surprising to you
it's not surprising to me and I don't want my the viewers to think that somehow I'm like shocked about this and
Just like oh you think he just went not Kanye West apostatize a long time ago. What the heck? Yes
So throw your Yeezus, you know shirts
Brother Cody, by the way, those shirts at those concerts and stuff. They're like hundreds of dollars to get a shirt
Talk about making merchandise. Oh, yeah for sure
So he um, how do you know that? Did you buy one?
Was the worst purchase I ever made, you know, uh, that speech be ready
So, um
You know recently now he's he's beefing with oh and by the way before I get into that
So then, you know, he's coming to be a Christian and then he really doubles down and then he starts exposing the Jews
You know, I mean, do you remember that little era in his career? Yeah. Yeah where he's like exposing he's on Alex Jones
Show and he's saying all this stuff about the Jews
Just make it a mockery of Christianity really
Yeah, you know and there's a lot of people who are
Against Zionism who are liking it because I saw this on social media. He's like, oh man
He's he's a way to the Jews and you know
He knows what he's talking about but not even because he he's a black Hebrew Israelite at least at that time
So he's saying that he is a Jew like, you know black people in general. Yeah true Jews
So it's not like he's he's just against the so he went from he went from like
Evangelical or yeah evangelical. Yeah, or whatever that was
you know just I
Don't know what to call that
pseudo-evangelical to black Hebrew Israelite and now he's just completely gone
full-blown apostate against Christ
Because he did this interview and let's show do you have these clips or what? What do you have you like?
you know where the what each
Clip is. All right, play it. Let's let's see what he says here
Just click
But that's all you then there's sometimes you just want to say ma'am not get but you just want to say man
This is what I'm feeling right now. Are you in that light?
Comfortable enough screen this to say this is where I am right now. I'm still a man of God
Jesus still is King
But this is vultures right now. This is where I am. It is but I you know, I have my issues with Jesus
There's a lot of stuff I went through that I prayed and I ain't see Jesus show up. So I had to put my
My experience in this world my experience with my children my experience or other people my experience of my account
My experience of my brand and my experience with the level of music that I was dealing with in my own hands
Like a lot of times I just feel like in our society in America, you know people
Christians will depend on Jesus so much that we won't put the word in ourself and the main thing that
Really that I don't rock with it's like it's just always like I'm gonna pray for you
And it's just like you can actually physically do something yourself to more than just pray and
And
We're so in this
mentality that that's all that needs to happen, but
We ain't we ain't praying our way out of prison. We ain't praying our way out of the abortion clinics
We ain't praying our way to get our land back. That was always ours after gentrification after the Harlem
Renaissance and black Wall Street was burned to the ground
Them prayers ain't working. We go we have to
apply actual
Physical
building
partnerships and it don't start
Unless we could really be real with each other and say this is what I did
This is what I did like, I mean look at this
I know I'm not gonna third rail y'all interview
But look at the power of what happened when me and Kyrie was on the same page. See that's what's scary
But what they do is they put us each in asylum and say your grandmother gonna lose her crib and this kind of
You're not me threats
We've been dealt dealt with and I didn't pray my way
Through them threats either I had to get up and do it myself. I had so much to do. I had time to pray
Okay, play another clip or prepare another clip. So
He says there that he has a problem with Jesus
I got my issues with Jesus and he's basically putting himself on the same pedestal as him as
though they're equals or
You know that Jesus owes him something
Yeah, you know what I mean? And and I don't think he's lying about how he actually feels
I mean like this is literally how he feels. This is how he's probably fall for years and years
Yeah, so all that time when he's talking about Jesus. He wanted something out of Jesus
He wanted Jesus to do something for him
And when Jesus didn't submit to his every wicked whim or whatever it is that he's looking for now
He has issues with Jesus or whatever, you know, and
Here's the thing is that Jesus doesn't owe this person or anybody anything. Yeah, you know what I mean?
And just to let everyone know the reason I'm gonna tell you why Jesus didn't answer
Kanye West's prayers and that is because Kanye West is not saved. Yeah, and Kanye West is apostate
He doesn't like the Lord. He hates the Lord in his heart
And so, you know, his prayers are open unto the righteous but not unto the wicked and so, you know
God does not care about Kanye West
whatsoever, right and
So when Kanye West prays his prayers are not even passing the ceiling
Because God just completely disregards everything that Kanye West is saying because of what he actually believes in his heart
So there's never a time when Kanye West was right with God, right?
You know what I mean? And so he can pray for anything he wants. He could have asked Christ
He could even ask Jesus Christ for salvation. He wouldn't have gotten it. Yep
because long ago
Kanye West
apostatized
By claiming to be God. Yep, and
You know and and you know claiming that he is Jesus and mocking the name of Christ
so Jesus wants nothing to do with that and
Here's the thing is that with Christians
God does answer our prayers. Yeah, are there instances when he doesn't of course
There's instances when he doesn't because sometimes what we pray for we praying so we can consume it upon our own lust
Yeah, and there's some things that may we may be asking for that's not according to the will of God
When Christians pray we're supposed to pray number one according to his will
In other words it needs to be found within the parameters of God's Word if you're praying for things outside of God's will
He's not gonna give it to you. Yeah, like praying to win the lottery or something like that
Yeah praying for his business to take off or something. It's ridiculous
Number two, he's not gonna pray for you
All right
He's not gonna answer your prayers if it's something you just want to consume upon your own lust if it's something that's sinful
He's not gonna do it and number three if he's not answering your prayers
It's because of the fact that maybe you just can't handle that blessing at this moment
But none of those actually pertain to Kanye West. Yeah, you know that pertains to the believer the Christian the person who's actually saved
Kanye West
You know is not a safe person. He's apostate play this other clip
Are you getting it ready? All right. Well, let me read let's read a couple verses here
Because you know some people may not like what I'm saying, but who cares turn off the Kanye West song
Music and actually open up the Bible and the Bible teaches extensively about the subject of apostasy
Because of the fact that it's something that happens to a person when they have rejected
The doctrines of Christ when they become enemies of the cross of Christ
so apostasy is
when a person
claims to hold to biblical doctrines
the doctrines of Christ and
Then all of a sudden does a 180 and
Rejects them. Yeah, and
Just completely just throws them out and it's a person who is not saved because say people cannot
Apostasize correct. We're talking about people who are not saved who are claiming to be saved
Yeah, and it might be a person who was well-meaning well-meaning in the beginning
but in their heart, they're rejecting the truth and
What happens is when a person rejects the truth for a certain period of time
but they claim to be
Embracing that truth and they're even a spout their claim to espouse that truth. They proclaim that true
They're trying to win others to that truth
That pisses off God a lot. Yeah, because God can see that in that person's heart. They don't really believe that stuff
Mm-hmm. And so what happens is a person ends up
Giving heed to seducing spirits and doctrines of devils and then they have their conscience seared with the hot iron
God's like you've been mocking the truth by claiming you believe it but in your heart you mock it now
I'm just gonna make you go apostate and you're gonna believe a strong a strong delusion is gonna be sent to you
So that you can believe a lie. Yeah, and this is why you have certain instances in public
This is an extreme case, of course of people who are claiming to be Christians and then they do a 180
They're like, I'm an atheist now. Yeah. Yeah, those are all people they were never saved to begin with exactly when apostate
I'm thinking of what is that guy's name Joshua Harris? Oh, yeah, I kiss dating. Goodbye. Yeah, Joshua Harris is up
I don't know. What do you have a evangelical? We're just kind of throwing that term around
He made a book called
Kissing dating. Goodbye
And it was like it was like a dating book for Christians like how to date and he was like all this
Spiritual talk and blah blah blah, you know got to put God first and all this nonsense there
And there's fundamental Baptist that I know that loved that book
bunch of compromises
Well, you know then he came out later and it was just like I'm an atheist and I don't really believe all that stuff
So you say well what he just fell away from God, yeah, yeah, he did fall away
falling away is called apostatize because he never actually had God and
The reason the apostatize is because God was very upset at the fact that he published a book where he claimed to be a Christian
espousing Christian principles and he's giving people spiritual advice according to the Bible, but he never believed in himself
God finds it very offensive when people teach the Bible
When they don't even believe the Bible, yeah
That's like really offensive to God
Yeah, or like when you make some music album saying claiming Jesus is King is your whole album cover
But you don't even believe that you don't even like in that interview. You don't believe it
He's not he's he's got a problem with Jesus now
He made a whole album that said Jesus is King and then all of a sudden all of a sudden now
He's got now he's a vulture cuz they have his group or whatever. It's called vultures and now he has issues with Jesus accurate
Yeah
You know what I mean? So it's like
apostasy is when God
Becomes irate with the person for
Rejecting the truth that they claim to believe for so long
Yeah, like in Proverbs 1 it says, you know because I have called and you refused
I've stretched out my hand and no man regarded
But you have said it not all my counsel and would none of my reproof and then he says I will also laugh at
your
Mock when your fear cometh when your fear cometh as desolation your destruction cometh as a whirlwind when distress and anguish cometh upon you
Then shall they call upon me like Kanye West, but I will not answer
Yeah, they shall seek me early, but they shall not find me for that. They hated knowledge
So it says that he's gonna mock them. Yeah, but that's because
You know when Kanye West was going through that season, I'm sure there was instances, you know, because God is long-suffering
I'm sure he's like touching his heart and Kanye West is just rejecting it. Mm-hmm
So God's like, all right, you're mocking my son. You're putting on an entire album
called Jesus is King claiming to exalt the Lord Jesus Christ and
Then you're just gonna turn around and just mock him
It's just like I'm gonna laugh at your calamity and like you said there's good
There's a time when he called out to God. He's like, I'm not gonna listen to you
I'm not gonna hear you. Yep. That's that's a clear example of apostasy. Let's see this clip
There is it just threats at the end of the day it's like why should you fear, you know
It's another thing. I don't like it Christianity the fear of God if God is love. Why should you fear him?
Because you place one fear you get another fear get another fear. What do you have at that point? You're easily controllable
You're easily sellable. You're easily contracted
Because you have this fear on you
Like everybody gonna die
Eventually, but I'm gonna live my entire life
With zero fear fear of a contract fear perception fear getting my black card denied
Very I'm not gonna
Jump in front of a train, right?
conscious, right, you know
Ain't nobody finna tell me call me call telling nobody around me play with me play with nobody around me
None of that. It's from straight from pink polo. I got a chip on my shoulder. I'm a lawyer from Carlitos way
You know, I'm I'm fried at this point
every label can be contract any type of
Phone calls we number one. It's everybody you better not bring it around. Right?
You played that a little he's really went off the walls
You did it on purpose
So he said, you know, he's talking about the fear of God and he's he's mocking Christianity for having a fear of God
So here's a great verse for Kanye West right in this regard the transgression
This is Psalm 36 verse 1 says the transgression of the wicked saith within my heart
That there is no fear of God before his eyes for he flattereth himself in his own eyes
Until his iniquity be found to be hateful
The words of his mouth are iniquity and deceit. He had left off to be wise and to do good
He deviseth mischief upon his bed. He saideth himself in a way that is not good. He abhorth not evil
So this is a man who is now mocking Christianity for having a fear of God and he's plainly saying he doesn't fear God
Mm-hmm and folks. I don't know if you know this, but that's a clear hallmark of a false prophet
Reprobate apostate individual when they have no fear of God in their heart. Mm-hmm
Plain and simple you have another one. Are you looking through them or what?
Well while you're doing that
Let me go to read for you
Hebrews because you know, you'll have these
Soft Christians. We're like pray for him. Why don't you pray for him? Why don't you pray for him?
You know, you know he did to get right with God and I'll tell you why I won't pray for him
It's because of the fact that
he's
Committed to sin unto death
Yeah, and we should not pray for it and someone who's apostate
You're you're basically wasting your time praying for them because it is impossible to renew them again into repentance
and
the Bible says in Hebrews chapter 6 and
verse number 4 for it is impossible for those who were once enlightened and
have tasted of the heavenly gift that were made partakers of the Holy Ghost and
I've taken the good word of God and the powers of the world to come if they shall fall away
To renew them again into repentance
Seeing they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh and put him to an open shame
Here's a clear example of someone who's literally going on
Publicly big boy is a very popular guy in the hip-hop world
Millions of people have seen this already and he's putting Jesus Christ to an open shame
Hey, by the way, are these cameras on us?
Okay. All right. Just checking check the cameras. Mascafé
He's putting him to an open shame
Yeah
So when people were like why don't you pray for him to get right with God because it's actually impossible to renew them again into repentance
Since and the repentance there is referring to repentance from dead works and faith toward God
Since that's how we got there in the first place by rejecting the Lord Jesus Christ to begin with
So how we're gonna renew him into something that he is clearly rejected from the very beginning
And he doesn't believe to begin with right? He doesn't want to believe it and here is the proof of it
he's putting Jesus Christ to an open shame saying that oh, we shouldn't have a fear of God and
You know that that's my problem with Christianity and all this nonsense
Hey, he wants to talk about his problems with Christianity his problems with Jesus
It's funny how he says to that fear makes you easily sellable when this guy is selling his merchandise all the time
Yeah, how are those cells for the Jesus is King Kanye?
You weren't saying that stuff when you already made all of your millions off of Jesus is King
Yeah, all those concert tickets all that merchandise awfully quiet at that point. Yeah, and the Bible says that
Through covetous they shall with fain words make merchandise of you. Mm-hmm, you know, and in fact, let's go ahead and read from
second Peter chapter 2
Just to get some context here towards the end of second Peter chapter 2 it actually says
For when they speak great swelling words of vanity like Jesus's King album
They allure through the lust of the flesh like his concert
Through much wantonness those that were clean escaped from them who live in error. Oh, he helped me so much
While they promised them liberty they themselves are the servants of corruption
For of whom a man is overcome of the same he is brought into bondage
For if after that they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord Jesus
Lord and Savior Jesus Christ they are again entangled therein and overcome and
Overcome the latter end is worse with them than the beginning
So he's basically back to square one where he was prior to Christianity where he's claiming to be God
Yeah, and he's mocking Jesus Christ, but it's actually worse this time because he says he has issues with Jesus
He has problems with Christianity. He's mocking the Lord. Mm-hmm
For it had been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness
Then after they have known it to turn from the Holy Commandment delivered unto them now
I'm assuming you're gonna play this next clip you like is this the one the me willing? Okay, go for it
As well as I know about it ten years from now, right me willing I'll be still alive
Cuz it's up to me if I'm still I would kill myself
Yeah, if I felt like it it's up to me and people say God will it me willing then I'm still alive
I will understand this better and I'm gonna provide things for y'all that simplify that simplify these
Contracts right now. I have no say so over Yeezy
Over the shoes and broad day
Adidas Harvey Weinstein
One of the biggest artists and then he just goes on to others
so he says me willing instead of God willing, you know, and
He's obviously
By saying me willing. He's basically his own God. Yep, right and
You know, there's someone who does that in the Bible
Oh
Yeah, the Antichrist, you know that opposes it exalted themself above all that is called God or that is worship
So that he has got sitteth in the temple of God proclaiming himself to be God
And so what a blasphemous thing to say, well, I'm not gonna say God willing. I'm gonna say me willing
Well, why don't you will yourself to do all those things and why haven't they been done yet? Yeah
You know you're over here saying me willing
Well, how come you can't make it happen?
Cuz you're not God and in fact, let me read to you from
James chapter 5
Actually James chapter 4
it says go to now ye that say today or tomorrow we will go into such a city and
Continue there year and buy and sell and get gain. Whereas, you know now what shall be on the morrow
But what is your life Kanye
It is even a vapor that appears for a little time and then vanish at the way for that you ought to say if the
Lord will
Right. We shall live and do this or do that. But now ye rejoice in your boastings
All such rejoicing is evil. Oh
Man, the Bible is so relevant. Yeah, it's like literally
He's like both things that me willing and you know, I'm gonna do this
I'm gonna make it has such a just boasting as evil
Yeah, you know boast not thyself with tomorrow for thou knowest not what a day may bring forth. He's exalting himself
He's boasting of himself. I mean he's gonna be brought down to hell. Oh, yeah every other prideful arrogant pompous
Apostate that has ever existed just like Hebrew 6 said it would have been better for him to have not known the ways of
Righteousness it would have been better for him to not even have made that Jesus's King album
Better for himself to not have such a low hell that he's gonna have no for sure
I mean he basically just promoted himself to a lower hell. Yep
You know, he's got he he got himself the executive series in hell and a couple more floors
He might have been with Judas or with the Antichrist, but you know, he's down there pretty
He's pretty close to the Earth's core for sure
Yeah, because some of the claims that he's making is just flying in the face of what the Word of God says just Antichrist
Apostate reprobate statements and the Bible's clear. This man is clearly apostate. And again, just want to make myself clear
I never believed he was a righteous person to begin with
I've known always that the guy is just a charlatan. He's a phony
He's a fake
but you know
he's being used by myself as a byword and a proverb to teach the Word of God and show people that
Here's the extreme case of a person who's gone apostate, you know
And we can clearly see throughout the years things that he's done and said to reach this point
Yeah, and so and you people are like, yeah, but you know, God hasn't dealt with him yet
Not yet, but he will I mean, you know
He's got an eternity to do it and the Bible also says that he's storing up wrath against the day of wrath
Yeah, so every day every hour every month every year that he's allowed to live
God is just allowing him to live to incur more judgment upon him when he actually splits all wide open
Yeah, and people seem to forget that God is a God of extreme judgment, you know, and he will not be mocked
God is not be not deceived. God is not mocked
Whatsoever a man so it that shall he also reap. Yeah, and you think God is up in heaven
Just like well, you know, he's just a little off
No, he's just like keep him living. Yeah, cuz he's just gonna he's just racking up the wrath against the day of wrath and
God's gonna have the last laugh and so apostasy is a real thing my friends and it's it's closely associated
It's just another way of saying reprobation
But in kind it's often
Stated in context of someone who has rejected the doctrines of Christ
They have transgressed the doctrines of Christ
Claimed to have espoused embraced and taught the doctrines of Christ
But then become enemies of the cross of Christ and God finds that very offensive
And so therefore he sends them strong delusion that they should believe a lie
he sends them strong delusion so they can have a seared conscience and
Not be saved because he hates that. Yeah, you know any time a pastor gets up
He's not saved and he claims to be saved and he claims to believe the right gospel
He claims to believe in Jesus. He's exalting Jesus with his mouth, but inwardly
He's full of he's like a ravenous wolf and he hates the Word of God he says there is no God
He mocks the truth that he claims to be
He claims that he believes
That angers got a lot. Yeah, you know what I mean? And so
It should come as no surprise like with Kanye West, you know
The Christians at least is a guy who before did the Jesus King album calling himself
Jesus calling himself Jesus and you know, basically making himself God
It should come with no surprise that someone like that is gonna end up saying this type of stuff, too
And we shouldn't only a matter of time. Oh, yeah, and it shouldn't just be oh, well
He came out with the Jesus King album. So, you know now I know better
You know and I remember telling people like yes
He knows better and I already knew that years. I don't know how long was gonna take but I knew
Sometime in the future. He was gonna end up like being like this. Yep
And so
That's Christians off guard. Absolutely at least Christians who know the Bible
Yeah, you know
But I'm sure someone is gonna hear this and they're gonna be offended and they like
Kanye West and they think he's great and you know, we just need to pray just backslid in or whatever
you need to study apostasy in the Bible because it's a legitimate thing and
You know, you obviously don't have the fear of God in you if you don't realize that because God
Can do some terrible things and yes, you heard right?
And you know, he does it to people who mock his son put his son to an open shame
While they know the truth, you know, they're in close proximity to the truth. They taste it of the heavenly gift
There's I mean the guy spent two hours every Sunday
praising God
Think about that
He's like praising God with his mouth
Saying Jesus is King talking about Jesus
But it's coming from a heart that doesn't believe it though
So like when you say things that you don't really believe in your heart
You got to kind of ask yourself like how much of a wicked person are you? Yeah
You know because where is that coming from? It's coming from an underlying motive
That's not a love of God. It's not because you love the truth, you know
You're fabricating praise into the Lord for other reasons not because you truly want to praise him. It's a scary thought
