(Disclaimer: This transcript is auto-generated and may contain mistakes.) Knowing this first that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation For the prophecy came down in old time by the will of man But holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost and I'm just gonna finish with this This is very interesting right here in verse 20. We talk about it says right there a private interpretation. Okay? Now what is a private interpretation? It's when a person makes an assessment of scriptures without consulting other passages Okay to back it up basically it's an interpretation only known to them They're the ones who create the interpretation in the passage. Okay. Now people will always accuse us All that's a private you and your private interpretation about the Jews about the sodomites But it's like we have like a plethora of verses to back it up. Okay, that's just like a straw man that they put up All right You know the preacher relation rapture is a private interpretation it's so private it's just it's like VIP You know So that's what a private interpretation is now, let me read to you from Jeremiah 23 verse 16 Thus saith the Lord of hosts harken not into the words of the Prophet Prophets that prophesy unto you. They make you vain. They speak a vision of Their own hearts and Not out of the mouths of the Lord. So what is the same you're speaking a private Interpretation it's an interpretation something that stems from your own heart is what he's saying So this is an interpretation of scripture that stems from look at verse 21. It says the will of man Right, it's just for the prophecy came not an old time by the will of man So it's when someone wills an interpretation into the scripture no, this is what it says You know like the guy we spoke to a couple weeks ago just not that you'd be not judged And he's like, can we read the entire time? He's like no, no, no just He's just willing his interpretation upon that scripture Okay Now he said where are you going with this? Well, just keep in mind that the holy man of God is there as they were moved by the Holy Ghost Right Holy Man of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost now keep in mind That the books in the Bible are broken up into chapters, aren't they? But it doesn't mean that it starts in a completely different idea in the next chapter. So look at chapter 2 verse 1 but There were false prophets also among the people even as there shall be false teachers among you who what? privately Now what does privately mean privately like the private interpretation? Privilege shall bring in damnable heresies even denying the Lord that bought them and bring upon themselves swift Destruction is what that's referring to. So say look we the prophecy of the scriptures not given a private interpretation We have a more sure word God's put enough in the Bible to be its own evidence that it's true that these doctrines are true The ones who are of private interpretation Stem from people just like the prophets of old the false prophets of old who privately shall bring in damnable heresies and guess what? Damnedable heresies don't have scripture to back them up You know the more sure word the doctrines of the Bible the clear teachings on salvation The clear teachings on whatever subject that the Bible talks about it's gonna have scripture to back it up We just went through a slew of different scriptures right now to prove everything that we just believe Whereas the damnable heresy does not it is a private interpretation who damnable heretics privately bring in and That is the contrast between the holy man of God who spake Right and the damnable heretics who create a vision of their own heart. Okay
