WEBVTT 00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:04.040 Heavenly Father, 00:00:04.040 --> 00:00:04.040 00:00:10.099 --> 00:00:13.519 You created the world by Your Word. 00:00:13.519 --> 00:00:15.099 ! 00:00:15.099 --> 00:00:17.500 You created the world by Your Word. 00:00:17.500 --> 00:00:20.260 ! You make the dead live by Your Word. 00:00:20.260 --> 00:00:20.260 00:00:20.260 --> 00:00:28.859 Your Son, Jesus Christ, our precious Lord, His incarnate Word. 00:00:28.859 --> 00:00:40.460 So Lord, we realize that we can't take the study of Your Word too seriously. 00:00:40.460 --> 00:00:50.460 And it's my heart, my prayer this afternoon that You would equip every single one of my 00:00:50.460 --> 00:00:52.460 dear brothers and sisters here. 00:00:52.460 --> 00:00:56.460 That they might cherish Your Word more. 00:00:56.460 --> 00:01:06.060 That might know how to study Your Word more deeply. 00:01:06.060 --> 00:01:16.060 To gain greater faith and confidence in the authority, the reliability of Your Word. 00:01:16.060 --> 00:01:23.659 So to that end, please help us by Your Holy Spirit. 00:01:23.659 --> 00:01:33.659 Give us minds to ask questions, to understand, and to apply what we're learning. 00:01:33.659 --> 00:01:39.259 That it will serve these dear brothers and sisters for the rest of their lives. 00:01:39.259 --> 00:01:40.259 Amen. 00:01:40.259 --> 00:01:41.259 We depend on You, Lord. 00:01:41.259 --> 00:01:43.259 I can't do nothing apart from You. 00:01:43.260 -->

00:02:21.239 --> 00:02:22.060 Why don't you go ahead and read it? 00:02:23.239 --> 00:02:25.299 2 Timothy 3, verse 16. 00:02:26.560 --> 00:02:28.179 All scriptures breathed out by God 00:02:28.179 --> 00:02:30.579 are profitable for teaching, for reproof, 00:02:30.819 --> 00:02:32.719 for correction, and for training in righteousness. 00:02:33.560 --> 00:02:35.079 The man of God may be complete, 00:02:35.399 --> 00:02:36.379 and equipped for every career. 00:02:36.919 --> 00:02:38.399 Can you go ahead and read 15 as well? 00:02:38.399 --> 00:02:38.680 Yeah. 00:02:41.060 --> 00:02:42.239 And how from childhood 00:02:42.239 --> 00:02:44.159 you have been acquainted with the sacred writings, 00:02:44.560 --> 00:02:46.459 which are able to make you wise for salvation 00:02:46.460 --> 00:02:47.700 through faith in Christ Jesus? 00:02:48.640 --> 00:02:53.140 So, this is the most significant text 00:02:53.140 --> 00:02:56.520 on the authority of Scripture itself 00:02:56.520 --> 00:02:58.620 and why it's so significant in the life of a believer. 00:02:59.260 --> 00:03:01.500 And verse 15 gives us one main reason. 00:03:01.680 --> 00:03:03.500 It's that the sacred writings are able 00:03:03.500 --> 00:03:05.460 to make us wise for salvation 00:03:05.460 --> 00:03:07.800 through faith in Christ Jesus. 00:03:09.340 --> 00:03:12.260 It's not the Bible itself that saves us, right? 00:03:12.360 --> 00:03:13.520 We don't worship the Bible. 00:03:13.879 --> 00:03:14.980 We worship Jesus. 00:03:15.180 --> 00:03:15.900 We worship God. 00:03:16.460 --> 00:03:19.159 But the Bible is the means that God has appointed 00:03:19.159 --> 00:03:22.939 through which we come to encounter and meet Jesus. 00:03:23.719 --> 00:03:24.100 Right? 00:03:24.200 --> 00:03:25.140 Because we have... 00:03:25.819 --> 00:03:27.760 No one comes to saving faith 00:03:27.760 --> 00:03:30.460 from simply examining the historical facts 00:03:30.460 --> 00:03:32.420 and looking at the death and resurrection of Jesus 00:03:32.420 --> 00:03:33.200 and then saying, 00:03:33.319 --> 00:03:35.640 oh, that must be God's way of saving us. 00:03:37.140 --> 00:03:38.640 You need a theological interpretation 00:03:39.460 --> 00:03:40.640 of that historical fact. 00:03:41.640 --> 00:03:42.300 How do you just, 00:03:42.400 --> 00:03:44.240 from looking at the fact that Jesus died on the cross 00:03:44.240 --> 00:03:45.159 and was raised from the dead, 00:03:45.240 --> 00:03:46.939 know that that was for our atonement, 00:03:48.000 --> 00:03:50.540 that that's for our vindication and justification. 00:03:50.540 --> 00:03:51.620 You don't know that 00:03:51.620 --> 00:03:54.680 unless you have an authoritative interpretation of that. 00:03:55.320 --> 00:03:57.120 And so that's what Scripture provides for us. 00:03:57.620 --> 00:03:59.460 And that's why Scripture is so important 00:03:59.460 --> 00:04:00.740 for missions work. 00:04:01.000 --> 00:04:02.320 Translating work is so important. 00:04:02.319 --> 00:04:05.519 And that's why even in like areas 00:04:05.519 --> 00:04:08.079 where there's hardly no gospel access at all 00:04:08.079 --> 00:04:09.959 and you read stories of missionaries 00:04:09.959 --> 00:04:12.280 and of how people come to faith in those areas, 00:04:12.639 --> 00:04:14.799 often they'll see a vision from the Lord 00:04:14.799 --> 00:04:16.740 telling them where they can get a Bible, 00:04:17.399 --> 00:04:18.899 where they can meet a Christian, 00:04:19.019 --> 00:04:19.980 direct them to a Bible. 00:04:20.439 --> 00:04:22.659 And it's through the Word that God reveals Himself. 00:04:22.660 --> 00:04:26.920 And so the Scriptures are the ways 00:04:26.920 --> 00:04:29.920 that God has appointed to make us wise 00:04:29.920 --> 00:04:31.100 for salvation through faith in Christ. 00:04:31.140 --> 00:04:32.840 So that's one very, very important reason. 00:04:33.540 --> 00:04:34.660 And then the second reason is given 00:04:34.660 --> 00:04:36.000 in the verses 16 to 17. 00:04:36.660 --> 00:04:38.960 All Scripture is breathed out by God 00:04:38.960 --> 00:04:40.260 and profitable for teaching, 00:04:40.720 --> 00:04:41.800 for reproof, for correction, 00:04:41.940 --> 00:04:43.060 and for training in righteousness 00:04:43.060 --> 00:04:45.800 that the man of God may be complete, 00:04:46.020 --> 00:04:48.020 equipped for every good work. 00:04:49.560 --> 00:04:51.100 And I think people sometimes, 00:04:51.100 --> 00:04:52.040 do you do any more seats? 00:04:52.660 --> 00:04:52.980 You guys good? 00:04:59.300 --> 00:05:01.520 I think we can, in case more people come, 00:05:01.600 --> 00:05:03.120 let me just separate this out here. 00:05:19.560 --> 00:05:20.440 Oh, you guys head down. 00:05:20.439 --> 00:05:22.439 Get some nice times together. 00:05:25.699 --> 00:05:26.399 Bye, Ziya. 00:05:26.399 --> 00:05:27.300 Bye. 00:05:27.300 --> 00:05:34.340 Sometimes people make the mistake of thinking 00:05:34.340 --> 00:05:36.240 that inspiration, 00:05:36.420 --> 00:05:36.939 that the Spirit, 00:05:37.360 --> 00:05:40.259 it resides with the people 00:05:40.259 --> 00:05:42.340 who wrote the books permanently 00:05:42.340 --> 00:05:46.019 rather than the Scripture books themselves, 00:05:46.139 --> 00:05:47.000 the writings themselves. 00:05:47.740 --> 00:05:48.600 In a similar way, 00:05:48.639 --> 00:05:49.860 we think about how, you know, 00:05:49.939 --> 00:05:51.840 someone's inspired performance. 00:05:51.980 --> 00:05:52.480 We say, like, 00:05:52.540 --> 00:05:53.879 the Christian writers were inspired 00:05:53.879 --> 00:05:54.680 to write these things. 00:05:54.680 --> 00:05:55.300 Well, of course, 00:05:55.360 --> 00:05:56.900 the Spirit of God inspired them 00:05:56.900 --> 00:05:57.939 and helped them to write it. 00:05:58.459 --> 00:06:00.139 But the end product, 00:06:00.300 --> 00:06:00.900 the Scriptures, 00:06:01.160 --> 00:06:01.759 what is written, 00:06:02.060 --> 00:06:02.540 the graphe, 00:06:02.639 --> 00:06:04.220 the writings themselves, 00:06:04.360 --> 00:06:04.980 all Scriptures, 00:06:05.400 --> 00:06:07.379 are breathed out by God. 00:06:07.840 --> 00:06:09.100 And what do you guys think that means? 00:06:09.780 --> 00:06:10.660 I have a question. 00:06:10.780 --> 00:06:11.439 Yeah, Tony, go ahead. 00:06:11.439 --> 00:06:14.100 I think I asked it in the first version class. 00:06:14.259 --> 00:06:14.399 Yeah. 00:06:14.500 --> 00:06:15.480 I didn't understand. 00:06:15.620 --> 00:06:16.459 Wait, first what class? 00:06:16.600 --> 00:06:17.219 The first version class. 00:06:17.219 --> 00:06:17.899 No, first class, okay. 00:06:18.120 --> 00:06:18.540 So it says, 00:06:18.779 --> 00:06:20.819 it says, like, 00:06:21.219 --> 00:06:22.439 to make you wise to tell a mission, 00:06:23.000 --> 00:06:24.000 but the preceding, 00:06:24.139 --> 00:06:24.839 preceding versus 00:06:24.839 --> 00:06:26.300 from infancy, 00:06:26.540 --> 00:06:27.319 you have known the Scriptures. 00:06:27.860 --> 00:06:28.439 So this, 00:06:28.519 --> 00:06:29.680 the Scripture is 00:06:29.680 --> 00:06:30.980 before the compilation 00:06:30.980 --> 00:06:32.420 of the New Testament 00:06:32.420 --> 00:06:34.120 that he's referring to. 00:06:34.459 --> 00:06:34.680 Yes. 00:06:34.680 --> 00:06:35.240 So I guess, like, 00:06:35.280 --> 00:06:36.340 how can we say that 00:06:36.340 --> 00:06:39.019 it's the entire current Bible 00:06:39.019 --> 00:06:41.519 that these are the verses 00:06:41.519 --> 00:06:42.360 that it's applying 00:06:42.360 --> 00:06:43.639 to what we have right now? 00:06:43.800 --> 00:06:44.560 Yeah, yeah. 00:06:44.759 --> 00:06:45.800 That's a great question. 00:06:46.840 --> 00:06:48.840 So that's a little bit, 00:06:49.079 --> 00:06:50.480 I'll talk about it a little bit 00:06:50.480 --> 00:06:51.519 because it's an important question, 00:06:51.860 --> 00:06:52.540 but it's a little bit 00:06:52.540 --> 00:06:53.199 outside the preview 00:06:53.199 --> 00:06:54.120 of what I was going to talk about. 00:06:54.439 --> 00:06:55.379 So Tony's question, 00:06:55.519 --> 00:06:57.060 just so you guys could hear me 00:06:57.060 --> 00:06:57.680 if you didn't hear him. 00:06:58.560 --> 00:06:59.460 This was clearly 00:06:59.460 --> 00:07:01.300 before the completion of the canon, 00:07:02.000 --> 00:07:03.540 before the New Testament 00:07:03.540 --> 00:07:05.060 was codified. 00:07:05.740 --> 00:07:06.400 And so it's, 00:07:06.500 --> 00:07:07.860 when it says all Scripture, 00:07:07.980 --> 00:07:08.460 how do we know 00:07:08.460 --> 00:07:09.660 that it includes the New Testament 00:07:09.660 --> 00:07:10.400 and not only, 00:07:10.520 --> 00:07:11.720 not just the Hebrew Old Testament 00:07:11.720 --> 00:07:12.700 through Scripture, 00:07:12.819 --> 00:07:13.840 which is a good question. 00:07:15.160 --> 00:07:17.480 If you turn to 2 Peter, 00:07:17.480 --> 00:07:33.460 2 Peter 3, 00:07:33.460 --> 00:07:38.000 verses 15 to 16. 00:07:39.460 --> 00:07:40.340 It says, 00:07:40.339 --> 00:08:06.979 So we have a clear instance here 00:08:06.980 --> 00:08:08.920 of Apostle Peter 00:08:08.920 --> 00:08:10.939 referring to the writings of Paul 00:08:10.939 --> 00:08:13.020 as the Scriptures 00:08:13.020 --> 00:08:14.540 because he compares it 00:08:14.540 --> 00:08:15.340 to the other Scriptures 00:08:15.340 --> 00:08:16.340 because it's showing 00:08:16.340 --> 00:08:17.080 that he considers them 00:08:17.080 --> 00:08:17.900 to be authoritative. 00:08:18.600 --> 00:08:20.319 If you turn to 1 Timothy 5, 00:08:20.520 --> 00:08:21.819 verse 18. 00:08:26.140 --> 00:08:27.100 It's in the context 00:08:27.100 --> 00:08:28.259 of talking about how 00:08:28.259 --> 00:08:29.980 the church ought to treat elders 00:08:29.980 --> 00:08:32.420 and those elders who rule well 00:08:32.420 --> 00:08:33.100 should be considered worthy 00:08:33.100 --> 00:08:33.840 of double honor, 00:08:33.920 --> 00:08:34.580 especially those labor 00:08:34.580 --> 00:08:35.420 and teaching and teaching. 00:08:35.419 --> 00:08:37.319 And then he cites the Scriptures. 00:08:38.579 --> 00:08:39.159 He says, 00:08:39.259 --> 00:08:40.199 For the Scripture says, 00:08:42.379 --> 00:08:45.000 You shall not muzzle an ox 00:08:45.000 --> 00:08:47.599 when it treads out the grain. 00:08:49.319 --> 00:08:50.000 Do you guys know 00:08:50.000 --> 00:08:50.719 where that comes from? 00:08:53.959 --> 00:08:54.399 Deuteronomy. 00:08:54.959 --> 00:08:55.319 Yeah. 00:08:55.559 --> 00:08:56.099 So that's from 00:08:56.099 --> 00:08:56.979 the Old Testament Scriptures. 00:08:57.559 --> 00:08:58.639 But what about the next one? 00:08:59.259 --> 00:09:00.120 And the laborer 00:09:00.120 --> 00:09:00.980 deserves his wages. 00:09:00.980 --> 00:09:06.500 So that comes from 00:09:06.500 --> 00:09:07.940 Matthew 10.10. 00:09:08.820 --> 00:09:09.879 So that's actually 00:09:09.879 --> 00:09:11.379 Jesus' words. 00:09:11.580 --> 00:09:12.539 The things that Jesus said 00:09:12.539 --> 00:09:12.980 and taught 00:09:12.980 --> 00:09:14.639 and probably the tradition 00:09:14.639 --> 00:09:15.539 of the Gospels 00:09:15.539 --> 00:09:16.840 circulating at the time. 00:09:17.279 --> 00:09:18.379 And he's citing that 00:09:18.379 --> 00:09:19.440 already as Scripture 00:09:19.440 --> 00:09:21.399 on par with the same authority 00:09:21.399 --> 00:09:22.399 as the Old Testament Scriptures. 00:09:22.940 --> 00:09:22.980 Right? 00:09:22.980 --> 00:09:24.620 And so there's some 00:09:24.620 --> 00:09:25.480 definitive clues 00:09:25.480 --> 00:09:26.000 in the Scriptures 00:09:26.000 --> 00:09:27.000 that tell us that 00:09:27.000 --> 00:09:27.820 the New Testament 00:09:27.820 --> 00:09:29.000 is considered authoritative 00:09:29.000 --> 00:09:31.080 as much as 00:09:31.080 --> 00:09:32.519 the Old Testament. 00:09:34.080 --> 00:09:34.820 Does that answer 00:09:34.820 --> 00:09:35.240 your question 00:09:35.240 --> 00:09:36.039 someone, Tony? 00:09:36.879 --> 00:09:38.000 If you have further questions, 00:09:38.060 --> 00:09:38.720 I think I'll question. 00:09:38.720 --> 00:09:41.840 I think I'll read it. 00:09:42.139 --> 00:09:43.840 But I have more questions later. 00:09:43.940 --> 00:09:44.139 Okay. 00:09:44.320 --> 00:09:44.500 Okay. 00:09:44.600 --> 00:09:45.080 That's fine. 00:09:46.560 --> 00:09:47.379 And that's why 00:09:47.379 --> 00:09:49.399 it's important to recognize 00:09:49.399 --> 00:09:50.220 also that it's the 00:09:50.220 --> 00:09:51.100 New Testament apostles 00:09:51.100 --> 00:09:51.980 who are in the same 00:09:51.980 --> 00:09:52.860 authoritative tradition 00:09:52.860 --> 00:09:54.620 as the Old Testament 00:09:54.620 --> 00:09:55.720 Scripture writing prophets. 00:09:56.399 --> 00:09:57.300 It's the apostles 00:09:57.300 --> 00:09:58.160 who have the authority 00:09:58.160 --> 00:09:59.540 as Jesus promised 00:09:59.540 --> 00:10:00.800 and I will bring to remembrance 00:10:00.800 --> 00:10:01.980 by the Spirit 00:10:01.980 --> 00:10:03.320 everything that I taught you. 00:10:04.000 --> 00:10:05.180 And they're the ones 00:10:05.180 --> 00:10:06.660 recorded reliably for us. 00:10:06.659 --> 00:10:08.959 And so all of Scripture, 00:10:09.100 --> 00:10:09.419 I'd say, 00:10:09.620 --> 00:10:10.799 both Old and New Testament, 00:10:11.100 --> 00:10:12.379 66 books of the Bible, 00:10:12.559 --> 00:10:13.480 39 in the Old Testament, 00:10:13.600 --> 00:10:14.419 27 in the New Testament 00:10:14.419 --> 00:10:16.059 are inspired by God. 00:10:16.159 --> 00:10:16.839 Inspired meaning 00:10:16.839 --> 00:10:18.259 breathed out by God. 00:10:18.699 --> 00:10:19.939 Meaning God's spoken. 00:10:20.860 --> 00:10:22.259 And it says that 00:10:22.259 --> 00:10:23.579 it's able to equip us 00:10:23.579 --> 00:10:24.679 for every good work. 00:10:25.399 --> 00:10:26.799 That means it's sufficient 00:10:26.799 --> 00:10:28.480 for us to be able 00:10:28.480 --> 00:10:29.980 to become the kind of Christians 00:10:29.980 --> 00:10:31.059 that God wants us to be. 00:10:31.799 --> 00:10:32.559 You don't need 00:10:32.559 --> 00:10:34.259 additional information. 00:10:34.259 --> 00:10:34.959 You don't need 00:10:34.959 --> 00:10:35.879 additional 00:10:35.879 --> 00:10:37.759 books even. 00:10:38.659 --> 00:10:39.320 That's why 00:10:39.320 --> 00:10:41.240 I know sometimes 00:10:41.240 --> 00:10:42.860 we recommend books 00:10:42.860 --> 00:10:43.639 and we say to people, 00:10:43.779 --> 00:10:44.879 well, that's a must read. 00:10:46.200 --> 00:10:46.679 Biblically, 00:10:46.820 --> 00:10:48.240 there's no must read book 00:10:48.240 --> 00:10:49.279 except for the Bible. 00:10:49.919 --> 00:10:51.220 For the Christian truly, 00:10:51.399 --> 00:10:52.139 there's just the only 00:10:52.139 --> 00:10:53.019 must read book 00:10:53.019 --> 00:10:53.879 because everything 00:10:53.879 --> 00:10:54.759 you need to know 00:10:54.759 --> 00:10:55.759 is already in here. 00:10:56.240 --> 00:10:56.879 And that sufficiency 00:10:56.879 --> 00:10:57.840 is very free. 00:10:58.439 --> 00:10:58.580 You know, 00:10:58.659 --> 00:11:00.039 and if there's something 00:11:00.039 --> 00:11:00.639 that you're wondering 00:11:00.639 --> 00:11:01.320 in your life about, 00:11:01.379 --> 00:11:02.139 you have questions about, 00:11:02.139 --> 00:11:03.379 and you don't really know 00:11:03.379 --> 00:11:04.600 what God wants you to do, 00:11:04.600 --> 00:11:06.120 and you search the scriptures 00:11:06.120 --> 00:11:07.159 diligently and scripture 00:11:07.159 --> 00:11:08.220 says nothing about it, 00:11:08.259 --> 00:11:09.019 then there's an area 00:11:09.019 --> 00:11:10.300 where you can exercise 00:11:10.300 --> 00:11:11.240 freedom of conscience. 00:11:12.120 --> 00:11:13.600 If God hasn't told you 00:11:13.600 --> 00:11:14.879 in scriptures about it, 00:11:14.899 --> 00:11:16.019 then you don't have to know. 00:11:16.980 --> 00:11:18.220 And within the wisdom 00:11:18.220 --> 00:11:18.860 that you derive 00:11:18.860 --> 00:11:19.480 from God's word, 00:11:19.540 --> 00:11:20.420 you make the best decision 00:11:20.420 --> 00:11:20.820 you can. 00:11:21.080 --> 00:11:21.759 And you just seek 00:11:21.759 --> 00:11:22.620 to honor the Lord in that. 00:11:24.200 --> 00:11:24.519 Now, 00:11:25.840 --> 00:11:27.220 that's where we get 00:11:27.220 --> 00:11:28.340 the term inspiration 00:11:28.340 --> 00:11:28.840 of scripture. 00:11:28.840 --> 00:11:29.500 It's talking about 00:11:29.500 --> 00:11:30.200 how God's the one 00:11:30.200 --> 00:11:30.860 who breathed it. 00:11:30.879 --> 00:11:32.000 He's the one who spoke it. 00:11:32.000 --> 00:11:33.019 And as people 00:11:33.019 --> 00:11:34.059 who take the Bible 00:11:34.059 --> 00:11:34.980 seriously in that way, 00:11:35.080 --> 00:11:35.799 that God himself 00:11:35.799 --> 00:11:36.620 spoke these words, 00:11:36.700 --> 00:11:37.620 we obviously can't 00:11:37.620 --> 00:11:38.759 tamper with God's word. 00:11:39.059 --> 00:11:39.820 And we need to make sure 00:11:39.820 --> 00:11:40.320 that the word 00:11:40.320 --> 00:11:40.899 that we are studying 00:11:40.899 --> 00:11:42.080 is the word 00:11:42.080 --> 00:11:43.139 that God intended 00:11:43.139 --> 00:11:43.740 to be written, 00:11:44.100 --> 00:11:44.799 which is why 00:11:44.799 --> 00:11:46.440 the idea of establishing 00:11:46.440 --> 00:11:47.059 the text 00:11:47.059 --> 00:11:48.620 and choosing good translations 00:11:48.620 --> 00:11:49.179 and knowing that 00:11:49.179 --> 00:11:49.600 you're working 00:11:49.600 --> 00:11:50.600 with the right passage 00:11:50.600 --> 00:11:52.419 is so important. 00:11:53.320 --> 00:11:54.419 But how do we know 00:11:54.419 --> 00:11:55.080 that the scriptures 00:11:55.080 --> 00:11:56.419 authoritate? 00:12:00.460 --> 00:12:01.559 You guys have any ideas? 00:12:02.000 --> 00:12:05.059 Because he said it. 00:12:06.000 --> 00:12:06.559 Because what? 00:12:06.700 --> 00:12:07.299 He said it. 00:12:08.460 --> 00:12:09.100 Besides the fact 00:12:09.100 --> 00:12:09.580 that he said 00:12:09.580 --> 00:12:10.299 it was authoritative, 00:12:10.360 --> 00:12:11.419 we know it really is. 00:12:11.440 --> 00:12:12.299 Yeah, Jesus said 00:12:12.299 --> 00:12:13.379 it is authoritative, right? 00:12:13.419 --> 00:12:14.480 And he quotes it 00:12:14.480 --> 00:12:15.259 as authoritative. 00:12:15.379 --> 00:12:15.620 Okay, I thought 00:12:15.620 --> 00:12:16.419 there was another answer. 00:12:16.539 --> 00:12:17.120 That's the answer? 00:12:17.120 --> 00:12:17.240 Yeah. 00:12:17.460 --> 00:12:18.340 No, that's a good answer. 00:12:18.860 --> 00:12:19.720 That's a good answer. 00:12:22.299 --> 00:12:23.340 That Jesus said it 00:12:23.340 --> 00:12:24.080 is good enough for me. 00:12:24.200 --> 00:12:25.139 But how do we know 00:12:25.139 --> 00:12:25.799 Jesus said it? 00:12:26.960 --> 00:12:27.799 Because it's in the Bible. 00:12:28.240 --> 00:12:29.179 Well, it's in the Bible. 00:12:29.179 --> 00:12:31.179 So how do we know 00:12:31.179 --> 00:12:32.019 that what's in the Bible 00:12:32.019 --> 00:12:32.859 is authoritative? 00:12:33.259 --> 00:12:34.179 If that's what... 00:12:34.179 --> 00:12:37.000 That's where Jesus tells us 00:12:37.000 --> 00:12:38.839 that scripture is authoritative. 00:12:39.919 --> 00:12:41.139 You guys see what I'm asking? 00:12:41.179 --> 00:12:42.179 Mm-hmm. 00:12:42.179 --> 00:12:44.579 You have to believe 00:12:44.579 --> 00:12:46.779 that someone wrote down 00:12:46.779 --> 00:12:48.179 that someone did write 00:12:48.179 --> 00:12:49.379 about Jesus' words accurately. 00:12:50.179 --> 00:12:50.879 Okay, yeah. 00:12:51.000 --> 00:12:52.079 So maybe you're saying 00:12:52.079 --> 00:12:52.859 you need to believe 00:12:52.859 --> 00:12:53.679 that someone wrote down 00:12:53.679 --> 00:12:54.639 Jesus' words accurately. 00:12:54.779 --> 00:12:55.459 Jason, what were you going to say? 00:12:55.639 --> 00:12:56.099 Are you trying to get 00:12:56.099 --> 00:12:57.059 at like let the scripture 00:12:57.059 --> 00:12:57.719 enter the scripture? 00:12:58.519 --> 00:13:01.579 Yeah, so there's a principle 00:13:01.579 --> 00:13:02.299 that we call this 00:13:02.299 --> 00:13:03.139 that the scripture 00:13:03.139 --> 00:13:04.639 is self-authenticating. 00:13:04.639 --> 00:13:09.460 And in 1 Thessalonians 2.13 00:13:09.460 --> 00:13:11.639 it says, 00:13:11.879 --> 00:13:12.819 We also thank God 00:13:12.819 --> 00:13:13.899 constantly for this 00:13:13.899 --> 00:13:14.819 that when you receive 00:13:14.819 --> 00:13:15.559 the word of God 00:13:15.559 --> 00:13:16.679 Oh, do I have something here? 00:13:17.080 --> 00:13:17.299 Yeah. 00:13:18.100 --> 00:13:18.759 When you receive 00:13:18.759 --> 00:13:19.360 the word of God 00:13:19.360 --> 00:13:20.559 which you heard from us 00:13:20.559 --> 00:13:21.240 you accepted it 00:13:21.240 --> 00:13:22.559 not as the word of men 00:13:22.559 --> 00:13:24.819 but as what it really is 00:13:24.819 --> 00:13:26.000 the word of God 00:13:26.000 --> 00:13:27.340 which is at work 00:13:27.340 --> 00:13:28.879 in you believers. 00:13:30.200 --> 00:13:30.299 Right? 00:13:30.759 --> 00:13:31.620 Much like 00:13:31.620 --> 00:13:33.679 2 Timothy 3.16 and 17 00:13:33.679 --> 00:13:35.319 when Paul simply said 00:13:35.319 --> 00:13:36.539 all scripture is breathed out 00:13:36.539 --> 00:13:37.039 by God 00:13:37.039 --> 00:13:37.719 and these are scriptures 00:13:37.719 --> 00:13:40.259 there's no proof here 00:13:40.259 --> 00:13:42.079 that scripture is authoritative. 00:13:42.179 --> 00:13:42.799 They don't offer 00:13:42.799 --> 00:13:43.539 that kind of proof. 00:13:44.199 --> 00:13:45.339 They just take for granted 00:13:45.339 --> 00:13:46.639 that when God speaks 00:13:46.639 --> 00:13:48.599 that people will receive 00:13:48.599 --> 00:13:49.199 those scriptures 00:13:49.199 --> 00:13:50.500 as God's word 00:13:50.500 --> 00:13:51.620 and not as the words of men. 00:13:51.919 --> 00:13:52.019 Right? 00:13:53.379 --> 00:13:54.639 And if you look at 00:13:54.639 --> 00:13:55.899 Hebrews 6.13 00:13:55.899 --> 00:13:56.639 it says, 00:13:56.879 --> 00:13:57.359 Since God 00:13:57.359 --> 00:13:58.899 had no one greater 00:13:58.899 --> 00:13:59.779 by whom to swear 00:13:59.779 --> 00:14:01.419 he swore by himself. 00:14:02.379 --> 00:14:02.719 This is 00:14:02.719 --> 00:14:03.659 I'm getting at that idea 00:14:03.659 --> 00:14:04.399 that the Bible 00:14:04.399 --> 00:14:05.480 is the final authority. 00:14:06.100 --> 00:14:07.419 It's the ultimate authority. 00:14:07.679 --> 00:14:08.959 When you're a student 00:14:08.959 --> 00:14:09.959 in grad school 00:14:09.959 --> 00:14:10.679 writing a paper 00:14:10.679 --> 00:14:11.620 then you need to cite 00:14:11.620 --> 00:14:13.439 your proper authorities. 00:14:13.939 --> 00:14:14.019 Right? 00:14:14.240 --> 00:14:15.199 But if you are 00:14:15.199 --> 00:14:16.019 the authority 00:14:16.019 --> 00:14:16.639 on the subject 00:14:16.639 --> 00:14:17.759 you don't cite 00:14:17.759 --> 00:14:19.120 other people 00:14:19.120 --> 00:14:19.719 because you're 00:14:19.719 --> 00:14:20.199 the authority. 00:14:20.299 --> 00:14:20.939 You speak on it 00:14:20.939 --> 00:14:21.679 authoritatively. 00:14:22.159 --> 00:14:22.319 Right? 00:14:22.419 --> 00:14:23.100 God speaks 00:14:23.100 --> 00:14:24.179 on his own authority 00:14:24.179 --> 00:14:24.939 and no one else 00:14:24.939 --> 00:14:26.059 can establish his authority 00:14:26.059 --> 00:14:27.159 and so the word of God 00:14:27.159 --> 00:14:28.000 itself is 00:14:28.000 --> 00:14:29.620 the final authority 00:14:29.620 --> 00:14:30.839 and that has to have 00:14:30.839 --> 00:14:32.100 self-authenticating authority. 00:14:32.100 --> 00:14:33.600 And this is so important 00:14:33.600 --> 00:14:35.320 because until you have 00:14:35.320 --> 00:14:36.540 you could establish 00:14:36.540 --> 00:14:37.300 that the Bible 00:14:37.300 --> 00:14:38.139 and the doctrines 00:14:38.139 --> 00:14:38.700 taught in it 00:14:38.700 --> 00:14:40.000 is fully credible 00:14:40.000 --> 00:14:41.340 as the word of God. 00:14:41.940 --> 00:14:42.860 Until you have 00:14:42.860 --> 00:14:43.940 know beyond a shadow 00:14:43.940 --> 00:14:44.240 of doubt 00:14:44.240 --> 00:14:44.980 that God 00:14:44.980 --> 00:14:45.680 is the author 00:14:45.680 --> 00:14:46.620 of these words 00:14:46.620 --> 00:14:48.680 it's not going to have 00:14:48.680 --> 00:14:50.300 the full intended effect 00:14:50.300 --> 00:14:51.040 in the application 00:14:51.040 --> 00:14:51.720 in our lives. 00:14:52.879 --> 00:14:54.080 But isn't that 00:14:54.080 --> 00:14:55.340 circular reasoning? 00:14:55.740 --> 00:14:55.840 Right? 00:14:56.980 --> 00:14:58.040 Scripture is God's 00:14:58.040 --> 00:14:58.840 authoritative word. 00:14:58.840 --> 00:14:59.860 How do you know that? 00:14:59.960 --> 00:15:01.060 Well because Scripture says 00:15:01.060 --> 00:15:03.420 it's God's authoritative word. 00:15:03.519 --> 00:15:04.360 But why is Scripture 00:15:04.360 --> 00:15:04.840 authoritative? 00:15:04.960 --> 00:15:06.340 Well because it's God's word. 00:15:07.280 --> 00:15:07.420 Right? 00:15:08.000 --> 00:15:08.840 How do you know that? 00:15:09.000 --> 00:15:10.220 Because Scripture says so. 00:15:10.879 --> 00:15:11.060 Right? 00:15:11.160 --> 00:15:12.620 It's like a circular 00:15:12.620 --> 00:15:13.440 reasoning. 00:15:14.080 --> 00:15:15.300 The logic uses 00:15:15.300 --> 00:15:16.240 its own conclusion 00:15:16.240 --> 00:15:16.759 as evidence 00:15:16.759 --> 00:15:17.519 to prove itself 00:15:17.519 --> 00:15:18.720 which makes it circular. 00:15:19.240 --> 00:15:20.280 But because our God 00:15:20.280 --> 00:15:21.060 is triune 00:15:21.060 --> 00:15:22.440 and this logic 00:15:22.440 --> 00:15:24.080 isn't viciously circular. 00:15:24.940 --> 00:15:25.759 And this is where 00:15:25.759 --> 00:15:26.720 the importance 00:15:26.720 --> 00:15:27.480 of the Holy Spirit 00:15:27.480 --> 00:15:28.120 and his testimony 00:15:28.120 --> 00:15:28.620 comes in. 00:15:29.139 --> 00:15:30.340 Look at John 10 00:15:30.340 --> 00:15:31.000 2-3 00:15:31.000 --> 00:15:31.340 and says 00:15:31.340 --> 00:15:32.200 The sheep hear 00:15:32.200 --> 00:15:33.060 the shepherd's voice 00:15:33.060 --> 00:15:33.720 and he calls 00:15:33.720 --> 00:15:34.299 his own sheep 00:15:34.299 --> 00:15:34.720 by name 00:15:34.720 --> 00:15:35.539 and leads them out. 00:15:36.039 --> 00:15:36.960 The sheep follow him 00:15:36.960 --> 00:15:37.679 for they know 00:15:37.679 --> 00:15:38.639 his voice. 00:15:39.320 --> 00:15:40.019 How do the sheep 00:15:40.019 --> 00:15:41.080 follow the right voice? 00:15:41.700 --> 00:15:42.700 God simply says 00:15:42.700 --> 00:15:44.000 the sheep know 00:15:44.000 --> 00:15:44.639 his voice. 00:15:45.060 --> 00:15:45.600 They know how 00:15:45.600 --> 00:15:46.080 to recognize 00:15:46.080 --> 00:15:46.720 his voice. 00:15:48.240 --> 00:15:49.360 1 Corinthians 2 00:15:49.360 --> 00:15:50.080 12-14 00:15:50.080 --> 00:15:50.320 says 00:15:50.320 --> 00:15:51.139 Now we have received 00:15:51.139 --> 00:15:51.799 not the spirit 00:15:51.799 --> 00:15:52.279 of the world 00:15:52.279 --> 00:15:52.940 but the spirit 00:15:52.940 --> 00:15:53.840 who is from God 00:15:53.840 --> 00:15:54.740 that we might 00:15:54.740 --> 00:15:55.680 understand the things 00:15:55.680 --> 00:15:56.560 freely given us 00:15:56.560 --> 00:15:57.060 by God 00:15:57.059 --> 00:15:58.559 and we impart this 00:15:58.559 --> 00:15:59.459 in words 00:15:59.459 --> 00:16:00.439 not taught by 00:16:00.439 --> 00:16:01.179 human wisdom 00:16:01.179 --> 00:16:01.959 but taught by 00:16:01.959 --> 00:16:02.579 the spirit 00:16:02.579 --> 00:16:03.859 interpreting spiritual 00:16:03.859 --> 00:16:04.619 truths to those 00:16:04.619 --> 00:16:05.419 who are spiritual. 00:16:06.079 --> 00:16:06.839 The natural person 00:16:06.839 --> 00:16:07.559 does not accept 00:16:07.559 --> 00:16:07.919 the things 00:16:07.919 --> 00:16:08.719 of the spirit of God 00:16:08.719 --> 00:16:09.139 for they are 00:16:09.139 --> 00:16:09.919 folly to him 00:16:09.919 --> 00:16:10.699 and he is not 00:16:10.699 --> 00:16:11.539 able to understand 00:16:11.539 --> 00:16:12.019 them because 00:16:12.019 --> 00:16:12.879 they are spiritually 00:16:12.879 --> 00:16:13.699 discerned. 00:16:14.079 --> 00:16:15.299 So it's the spirit 00:16:15.299 --> 00:16:16.279 of God himself 00:16:16.279 --> 00:16:17.259 who confirms 00:16:17.259 --> 00:16:18.119 to us that 00:16:18.119 --> 00:16:19.679 what is objectively 00:16:19.679 --> 00:16:20.399 the word of God 00:16:20.399 --> 00:16:21.139 the written scriptures 00:16:21.139 --> 00:16:22.500 is God's word. 00:16:22.500 --> 00:16:23.919 So the trying 00:16:23.919 --> 00:16:24.620 God is working 00:16:24.620 --> 00:16:25.399 in intent 00:16:25.399 --> 00:16:26.100 for the father 00:16:26.100 --> 00:16:27.379 the father speaks 00:16:27.379 --> 00:16:27.779 the word 00:16:27.779 --> 00:16:28.419 he's the one 00:16:28.419 --> 00:16:28.899 that breathes 00:16:28.899 --> 00:16:29.460 out the word 00:16:29.460 --> 00:16:30.679 Jesus is the 00:16:30.679 --> 00:16:31.440 incarnate word 00:16:31.440 --> 00:16:32.419 and the spirit 00:16:32.419 --> 00:16:32.860 is the one 00:16:32.860 --> 00:16:34.419 who attests 00:16:34.419 --> 00:16:34.919 to this 00:16:34.919 --> 00:16:35.639 and confirms 00:16:35.639 --> 00:16:36.259 this in our 00:16:36.259 --> 00:16:36.559 hearts 00:16:36.559 --> 00:16:37.639 and that's why 00:16:37.639 --> 00:16:39.200 unless the spirit 00:16:39.200 --> 00:16:39.879 of God removes 00:16:39.879 --> 00:16:40.379 the veil 00:16:40.379 --> 00:16:40.940 that's over 00:16:40.940 --> 00:16:41.539 our hearts 00:16:41.539 --> 00:16:42.539 and unless 00:16:42.539 --> 00:16:43.019 the spirit 00:16:43.019 --> 00:16:43.299 of God 00:16:43.299 --> 00:16:44.259 shines into 00:16:44.259 --> 00:16:44.779 our hearts 00:16:44.779 --> 00:16:45.200 the light 00:16:45.200 --> 00:16:45.639 of the knowledge 00:16:45.639 --> 00:16:46.059 of the glory 00:16:46.059 --> 00:16:46.340 of God 00:16:46.340 --> 00:16:46.700 in the face 00:16:46.700 --> 00:16:47.399 of Jesus Christ 00:16:47.399 --> 00:16:47.700 it says 00:16:47.700 --> 00:16:49.039 in 2 Corinthians 3-4 00:16:49.039 --> 00:16:50.399 that we cannot 00:16:50.399 --> 00:16:51.440 see the glory 00:16:51.440 --> 00:16:51.760 of Christ 00:16:51.760 --> 00:16:52.140 we cannot 00:16:52.140 --> 00:16:52.660 understand 00:16:52.660 --> 00:16:53.160 it and grasp 00:16:53.160 --> 00:16:53.380 it. 00:16:54.520 --> 00:16:55.300 So then there 00:16:55.300 --> 00:16:56.020 is an objective 00:16:56.020 --> 00:16:56.540 dimension 00:16:56.540 --> 00:16:57.900 to the inspiration 00:16:57.900 --> 00:16:59.080 and the authority 00:16:59.080 --> 00:16:59.900 of God's word 00:16:59.900 --> 00:17:01.040 and there is a 00:17:01.040 --> 00:17:02.200 subjective dimension 00:17:02.200 --> 00:17:02.960 to it. 00:17:03.400 --> 00:17:04.240 The objective 00:17:04.240 --> 00:17:04.720 dimension 00:17:04.720 --> 00:17:05.559 it is objectively 00:17:05.559 --> 00:17:06.500 the authoritative 00:17:06.500 --> 00:17:07.059 word of God 00:17:07.059 --> 00:17:07.720 the written word 00:17:07.720 --> 00:17:08.539 but it is 00:17:08.539 --> 00:17:09.299 subjectively 00:17:09.299 --> 00:17:10.259 confirmed as 00:17:10.259 --> 00:17:10.680 truth 00:17:10.680 --> 00:17:11.779 as God's word 00:17:11.779 --> 00:17:12.900 by the Holy Spirit 00:17:12.900 --> 00:17:13.500 in our hearts 00:17:13.500 --> 00:17:15.259 and this is important 00:17:15.259 --> 00:17:16.080 both of these things 00:17:16.080 --> 00:17:16.480 are important 00:17:16.480 --> 00:17:17.320 because on the one 00:17:17.320 --> 00:17:17.600 hand 00:17:17.600 --> 00:17:19.259 the objective 00:17:19.259 --> 00:17:19.680 dimension 00:17:19.680 --> 00:17:20.220 that the scripture 00:17:20.220 --> 00:17:20.820 is objectively 00:17:20.820 --> 00:17:21.400 God's written 00:17:21.400 --> 00:17:21.800 word 00:17:21.800 --> 00:17:22.820 helps us 00:17:22.820 --> 00:17:23.740 to steer clear 00:17:23.740 --> 00:17:24.440 of radical 00:17:24.440 --> 00:17:25.259 individualism 00:17:25.259 --> 00:17:26.580 and you see 00:17:26.580 --> 00:17:27.300 that in certain 00:17:27.300 --> 00:17:28.660 evangelical circles 00:17:28.660 --> 00:17:29.320 where people say 00:17:29.320 --> 00:17:29.700 things like 00:17:29.700 --> 00:17:30.180 well I 00:17:30.180 --> 00:17:32.080 determine my own 00:17:32.080 --> 00:17:32.500 truth 00:17:32.500 --> 00:17:34.240 whatever I say 00:17:34.240 --> 00:17:35.140 whatever my 00:17:35.140 --> 00:17:35.900 interpretation 00:17:35.900 --> 00:17:36.360 whatever my 00:17:36.360 --> 00:17:37.140 spiritual experience 00:17:37.140 --> 00:17:38.019 is that's truth 00:17:38.019 --> 00:17:40.220 that kind of idea 00:17:40.220 --> 00:17:40.840 that radical 00:17:40.840 --> 00:17:41.360 individualism 00:17:41.360 --> 00:17:41.960 is very prevailing 00:17:41.960 --> 00:17:42.480 in our culture 00:17:42.480 --> 00:17:43.200 you probably heard 00:17:43.200 --> 00:17:43.720 things like 00:17:43.720 --> 00:17:44.600 live your truth 00:17:44.600 --> 00:17:45.880 speak your truth 00:17:45.880 --> 00:17:47.080 create your own 00:17:47.080 --> 00:17:47.519 reality 00:17:47.519 --> 00:17:49.460 but you can't 00:17:49.460 --> 00:17:50.079 do that 00:17:50.079 --> 00:17:51.039 if scripture 00:17:51.039 --> 00:17:51.900 is God's 00:17:51.900 --> 00:17:52.879 objective word 00:17:52.879 --> 00:17:53.980 then we have 00:17:53.980 --> 00:17:54.339 to submit 00:17:54.339 --> 00:17:54.639 to it 00:17:54.639 --> 00:17:55.440 we have to 00:17:55.440 --> 00:17:56.139 subordinate 00:17:56.139 --> 00:17:56.599 all our 00:17:56.599 --> 00:17:57.000 priorities 00:17:57.000 --> 00:17:57.559 and purposes 00:17:57.559 --> 00:17:58.200 and desires 00:17:58.200 --> 00:17:58.639 and thoughts 00:17:58.639 --> 00:17:59.119 to it 00:17:59.119 --> 00:18:01.119 on the other 00:18:01.119 --> 00:18:01.339 hand 00:18:01.339 --> 00:18:01.980 the subjective 00:18:01.980 --> 00:18:02.460 dimension 00:18:02.460 --> 00:18:03.099 helps us 00:18:03.099 --> 00:18:03.539 to steer 00:18:03.539 --> 00:18:03.539 00:18:03.539 --> 00:18:04.220 clear of 00:18:04.220 --> 00:18:04.819 what I might 00:18:04.819 --> 00:18:05.039 call 00:18:05.039 --> 00:18:05.680 Catholic 00:18:05.680 --> 00:18:06.799 institutionalism 00:18:06.799 --> 00:18:08.039 which says 00:18:08.039 --> 00:18:08.759 that the church 00:18:08.759 --> 00:18:09.799 determines truth 00:18:09.799 --> 00:18:10.659 right 00:18:10.659 --> 00:18:12.019 individual 00:18:12.019 -->

00:41:08.719 text 00:41:08.719 --> 00:41:10.059 and obviously 00:41:10.059 --> 00:41:10.940 as a translation 00:41:10.940 --> 00:41:13.480 you're trying to hit that optimal sweet spot 00:41:13.480 --> 00:41:14.279 somewhere in the middle 00:41:14.279 --> 00:41:16.480 and guess who made this graphic 00:41:16.480 --> 00:41:33.780 whoever publishes the csv made this graphic and so this is very very biased and I would argue that csv is not at the exact optimal center I think the ESV is a little closer to that you know and so this is yeah but that's why I wanted to update this and I tried to find a different graphic but I did find a better graphic 00:41:33.780 --> 00:41:58.860 but I did find a better one but you had to pay for it and I tried to pay for it and then it wouldn't work it's like some random guy who teaches like he's like a youth minister in some church in the middle of nowhere who made this amazing graphic and he wants to charge people but he didn't update the website 00:41:58.860 --> 00:42:05.240 so I could buy it so anyway so you're trying to find a sweet spot 00:42:05.240 --> 00:42:06.280 yeah go ahead Tony 00:42:06.280 --> 00:42:07.880 yeah sure 00:42:07.880

00:42:15.160 that's a great question 00:42:15.160 --> 00:42:17.640 I cannot answer that question 00:42:17.640 --> 00:42:20.840 I don't know what benchmarks they used 00:42:20.840 --> 00:42:22.660 I didn't look into their methodology 00:42:22.660 --> 00:42:24.860 it's probably not up to MIT standards 00:42:24.860 --> 00:42:25.400 if you're wondering 00:42:25.400 --> 00:42:30.440 all right

00:43:25.100 I wish I had adopted that 00:43:25.100 --> 00:43:26.520 but 00:43:26.520 --> 00:43:29.120 if you can go to blueletterbible.org 00:43:29.120 --> 00:43:33.260 this is what it looks like 00:43:33.820 --> 00:43:37.980 Blue Letter Bible just celebrated their 30th anniversary last year 00:43:37.980 --> 00:43:39.619 and 00:43:39.619 --> 00:43:40.659 it's 00:43:40.659 --> 00:43:41.519 hey Ed 00:43:41.519 --> 00:43:47.420 the Blue Letter Bible is actually not that much 00:43:47.420 --> 00:43:48.500 older 00:43:48.500 --> 00:43:50.780 not that much younger than the internet itself 00:43:50.780 --> 00:43:52.360 it's 00:43:52.360 --> 00:43:53.639 at the advent of the internet 00:43:53.639 --> 00:43:55.699 these creators realized 00:43:55.699 --> 00:43:57.340 the internet doesn't have a lot of good content 00:43:57.340 --> 00:43:59.619 it doesn't have any Bible in it 00:43:59.619 --> 00:44:02.280 and so they wanted to put the Bible online 00:44:02.280 --> 00:44:04.320 and put

00:45:38.200 unless you studied Hebrew 00:45:38.200 --> 00:45:38.800 you're not going to know 00:45:38.800 --> 00:45:39.480 what they are 00:45:39.480 --> 00:45:40.420 but 00:45:40.420 -->

00:45:47.559 --> 00:45:49.640 Strong's number is basically 00:45:49.639 --> 00:45:51.980 a scholar in 1890 00:45:51.980 --> 00:45:53.460 named James Strong 00:45:53.460 --> 00:45:55.259 did the meticulous work 00:45:55.259 --> 00:45:55.759 of 00:45:55.759 --> 00:45:57.119 numbering 00:45:57.119 --> 00:45:58.099 every unique 00:45:58.099 --> 00:45:58.759 Greek 00:45:58.759 --> 00:45:59.199 Hebrew 00:45:59.199 --> 00:45:59.960 Aramaic word 00:45:59.960 --> 00:46:00.779 in the original 00:46:00.779 --> 00:46:01.480 Magical Bible 00:46:01.480 --> 00:46:02.799 and so every 00:46:02.799 --> 00:46:03.739 unique word 00:46:03.739 --> 00:46:04.500 has a number 00:46:04.500 --> 00:46:05.559 Strong's number 00:46:05.559 --> 00:46:07.199 which is still widely used 00:46:07.199 --> 00:46:08.420

00:51:03.380 yeah 00:51:03.380 --> 00:51:04.140 so like 00:51:04.140 --> 00:51:04.920 yeah 00:51:04.920 --> 00:51:05.460 I don't know 00:51:05.460 --> 00:51:05.820 like 00:51:05.820 --> 00:51:06.320 where 00:51:06.320 --> 00:51:06.480 it's 00:51:06.480 --> 00:51:06.660 really 00:51:06.660 --> 00:51:06.840 under 00:51:06.840 --> 00:51:07.140 bible 00:51:07.140 --> 00:51:07.740 that's 00:51:07.740 --> 00:51:08.660 yeah 00:51:08.660 --> 00:51:09.620 interpretation 00:51:09.620 --> 00:51:10.559 and so 00:51:10.559 --> 00:51:11.360 Dre is making 00:51:11.360 --> 00:51:11.920 a good point 00:51:11.920 --> 00:51:13.120 that this word 00:51:13.120 --> 00:51:14.320 this Greek word 00:51:14.320 --> 00:51:15.980 is used 00:51:15.980 --> 00:51:16.680 only once 00:51:16.680 --> 00:51:17.400 in the entire bible 00:51:17.400 --> 00:51:18.200 that's what you call 00:51:18.200 --> 00:51:18.740 a hot pox 00:51:18.740 --> 00:51:19.260 legomenah 00:51:19.260 --> 00:51:19.840 it only occurs 00:51:19.840 --> 00:51:20.780 once in the entire bible 00:51:20.780 --> 00:51:21.960 so what context 00:51:21.960 --> 00:51:22.440 do you use 00:51:22.440 --> 00:51:22.920 to determine 00:51:22.920 --> 00:51:23.840 what that means 00:51:23.840 --> 00:51:25.280 it's hard 00:51:25.280 --> 00:51:25.800 so you do have 00:51:25.800 --> 00:51:26.400 to rely some 00:51:26.400 --> 00:51:27.260 on the dictionary 00:51:27.260 --> 00:51:29.000 that are using 00:51:29.000 --> 00:51:29.620 examples 00:51:29.620 --> 00:51:30.640 not only from the bible 00:51:30.640 --> 00:51:31.440 but also other

00:51:35.180 so what does 00:51:35.180 --> 00:51:35.960 the dictionary say 00:51:35.960 --> 00:51:38.140 it says like 00:51:38.140 --> 00:51:39.320 plump or overwrite 00:51:39.320 --> 00:51:40.579 overwrite 00:51:40.579 --> 00:51:42.200 overwrite 00:51:42.200 --> 00:51:42.640 right 00:51:42.640 --> 00:51:43.380 past 00:51:43.380 --> 00:51:44.360 bloom 00:51:44.360 --> 00:51:45.620 right 00:51:45.620 --> 00:51:47.300 and 00:51:47.300 --> 00:51:47.860 so 00:51:47.860 --> 00:51:49.200 this is a Greek tool 00:51:49.199 --> 00:51:50.960 that I used 00:51:50.960 --> 00:51:52.759 for my classic studies 00:51:52.759 --> 00:51:53.679 you don't really 00:51:53.679 --> 00:51:54.719 get taught this 00:51:54.719 --> 00:51:55.859 in seminary that much 00:51:55.859 --> 00:51:56.719 it's

study tool 00:52:02.519 --> 00:52:03.919 and if you put in 00:52:03.919 --> 00:52:05.359 the Greek word here 00:52:05.359 --> 00:52:06.399 it will not only 00:52:06.399 --> 00:52:07.379 give you occurrences 00:52:07.379 --> 00:52:08.079 in the bible 00:52:08.079 --> 00:52:08.899 it will also give you 00:52:08.899 --> 00:52:09.599 occurrences in 00:52:09.599 --> 00:52:10.539 all extant

--> 00:52:24.940 on that 00:52:24.940 --> 00:52:28.160 you find that 00:52:28.160 --> 00:52:29.740 that the word 00:52:29.740 --> 00:52:30.760 is used 00:52:30.760 --> 00:52:31.540 to refer to

00:55:18.099 --> 00:55:18.719 does that make sense 00:55:18.719 --> 00:55:20.119 you guys following this 00:55:20.119 --> 00:55:21.460 wait who 00:55:21.460 --> 00:55:22.059 could just say 00:55:22.059 --> 00:55:22.279 what 00:55:22.279 --> 00:55:23.500 yeah go ahead 00:55:23.500 --> 00:55:28.119 isn't that crazy 00:55:28.119 --> 00:55:28.539 yeah 00:55:28.539 --> 00:55:30.159 that's a pretty 00:55:30.159 --> 00:55:31.079 different interpretation 00:55:31.079 --> 00:55:31.659 isn't it 00:55:31.659 --> 00:55:32.359 so it's not like 00:55:32.359 --> 00:55:33.599 should I get married 00:55:33.599 --> 00:55:34.079 it's like 00:55:34.079 --> 00:55:35.819 should you get married 00:55:35.819 --> 00:55:37.460 yeah 00:55:37.460 --> 00:55:38.599 whether it's the father 00:55:38.599 --> 00:55:39.079 deciding 00:55:39.079 --> 00:55:39.619 should I 00:55:39.619 --> 00:55:40.279 keep her 00:55:40.279 --> 00:55:41.799 or keep her 00:55:41.799 --> 00:55:42.339 as a virgin 00:55:42.339 --> 00:55:42.960 since being 00:55:42.960 --> 00:55:43.599 singleness 00:55:43.599 --> 00:55:44.679 can help with 00:55:44.679 --> 00:55:45.299 being singularly 00:55:45.299 --> 00:55:46.139 devoted to the Lord 00:55:46.139 --> 00:55:46.940 as a context 00:55:46.940 --> 00:55:47.699 we might be 00:55:47.699 --> 00:55:48.559 better to keep her 00:55:48.559 --> 00:55:49.799 but then if the father 00:55:49.799 --> 00:55:50.739 starts feeling bad 00:55:50.739 --> 00:55:51.279 she's getting 00:55:51.279 --> 00:55:52.500 past her pride 00:55:52.500 --> 00:55:54.019 past her youth 00:55:54.019 --> 00:55:54.759 and start feeling 00:55:54.759 --> 00:55:55.500 bad about it 00:55:55.500 --> 00:55:56.039 then he's saying 00:55:56.039 --> 00:55:56.500 you know what 00:55:56.500 --> 00:55:57.400 give her away 00:55:57.400 --> 00:55:58.739 you're not sinning 00:55:58.739 --> 00:55:59.940 you guys understand 00:55:59.940 --> 00:56:00.539 what's going on 00:56:00.539 --> 00:56:00.819 yeah 00:56:00.819 --> 00:56:02.579 and rather than 00:56:02.579 --> 00:56:02.960 so 00:56:02.960 --> 00:56:04.339 in the ESV 00:56:04.339 --> 00:56:04.980 what does it mean 00:56:04.980 --> 00:56:05.940 for the betrothed 00:56:05.940 --> 00:56:06.239 to 00:56:06.239 --> 00:56:09.139 to keep her 00:56:09.139 --> 00:56:10.139 as his betrothed 00:56:10.779 --> 00:56:12.239 not marry her 00:56:12.239 --> 00:56:23.879 you guys have a 00:56:23.879 --> 00:56:24.419 category for 00:56:24.419 --> 00:56:33.379 what do you say 00:56:33.379 --> 00:56:34.599 they'll just stay 00:56:34.599 --> 00:56:35.379 they'll just stay 00:56:35.379 --> 00:56:35.379 00:56:35.379 --> 00:56:35.439 they'll just stay 00:56:35.439 --> 00:56:36.039 they'll just stay 00:56:36.039 --> 00:56:36.539 betrothed 00:56:36.539 --> 00:56:36.739 right 00:56:36.739 --> 00:56:38.079 that's what that means 00:56:38.079 --> 00:56:38.359 right 00:56:38.359 --> 00:56:40.079 that doesn't make any 00:56:40.079 --> 00:56:40.479 sense 00:56:40.480 --> 00:56:43.159 right 00:56:43.159 --> 00:56:44.240 so I think the 00:56:44.240 --> 00:56:45.740 I think the ESV 00:56:45.740 --> 00:56:46.240 got that one 00:56:46.240 --> 00:56:46.719 really wrong 00:56:46.719 --> 00:56:47.880 even though it's 00:56:47.880 --> 00:56:48.300 a really really 00:56:48.300 --> 00:56:48.940 good translation 00:56:48.940 --> 00:56:50.219 so 00:56:50.219 --> 00:56:52.240 hopefully 00:56:52.240 --> 00:56:53.039 you guys can see 00:56:53.039 --> 00:56:53.440 this with your 00:56:53.440 --> 00:56:54.000 own tools 00:56:54.000 --> 00:56:54.960 this is why 00:56:54.960 --> 00:56:55.360 it's important 00:56:55.360 --> 00:56:55.920 to look at 00:56:55.920 --> 00:56:56.619 multiple translations 00:56:56.619 --> 00:56:57.280 whenever you're 00:56:57.280 --> 00:56:57.820 reading a Bible 00:56:57.820 --> 00:56:58.579 it's a good practice 00:56:58.579 --> 00:56:59.219 to read the same 00:56:59.219 --> 00:56:59.699 version of the Bible 00:56:59.699 --> 00:57:00.460 over and over again 00:57:00.460 --> 00:57:00.800 so you gain 00:57:00.800 --> 00:57:01.480 singularity 00:57:01.480 --> 00:57:02.619 but it's also 00:57:02.619 --> 00:57:03.260 a good exercise 00:57:03.260 --> 00:57:03.940 to sometimes 00:57:03.940 --> 00:57:04.719 read the Bible 00:57:04.719 --> 00:57:05.179 one year 00:57:05.179 --> 00:57:05.599 in a different 00:57:05.599 --> 00:57:06.079 translation 00:57:06.079 --> 00:57:06.639 than you've read 00:57:06.639 --> 00:57:07.139 before 00:57:07.139 --> 00:57:08.179 that way you can 00:57:08.179 --> 00:57:09.039 you can notice 00:57:09.039 --> 00:57:09.440 some of these 00:57:09.440 --> 00:57:10.300 discrimencies 00:57:10.300 --> 00:57:11.560 so thank you 00:57:11.560 --> 00:57:12.039 for your patience 00:57:12.039 --> 00:57:12.680 sorry for going 00:57:12.680 --> 00:57:13.160 this is going 00:57:13.160 --> 00:57:13.539 long 00:57:13.539 --> 00:57:14.420 Lord thank you 00:57:14.420 --> 00:57:15.000 for this time 00:57:15.000 --> 00:57:15.700 please make this 00:57:15.700 --> 00:57:16.140 fruitful 00:57:16.140 --> 00:57:16.860 as they go 00:57:16.860 --> 00:57:17.440 in their own way 00:57:17.440 -->
