00:00:00,480 --> 00:00:04,120
Well, last podcast we talked
about what a disaster I think
2
00:00:04,320 --> 00:00:07,360
the disaster is.
My boom stand is is breaking.
3
00:00:07,680 --> 00:00:12,320
Well, well, I went I I don't
want to like Colin went out, but
4
00:00:12,320 --> 00:00:15,280
about twice a podcast Michael
will smack a boom stand.
5
00:00:15,480 --> 00:00:18,000
Actually, it's been better.
There was there was a time I
6
00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:22,520
like hit it every time.
So I tried to you just heard me
7
00:00:22,520 --> 00:00:23,800
clearing my throat.
We were talking about what a
8
00:00:23,800 --> 00:00:26,480
disaster.
Berkeley County is pollen.
9
00:00:26,480 --> 00:00:29,240
It must be crazy high.
So I'm it's bad.
10
00:00:29,240 --> 00:00:31,920
I was sniffing some in the last
podcast that you would have
11
00:00:31,920 --> 00:00:36,400
heard on Tuesday if you're
keeping up and I I probably will
12
00:00:36,400 --> 00:00:38,280
sniff a couple times this
podcast.
13
00:00:38,280 --> 00:00:41,280
I was I was victorious and
holding off a sneeze one time.
14
00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:44,000
You're more than conqueror.
I was more than conqueror.
15
00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:46,040
That's right, man.
And all those things.
16
00:00:46,080 --> 00:00:48,800
I, I, I, I've been having a hard
time, like sleeping at night.
17
00:00:49,960 --> 00:00:51,400
I think I'm like the pollen and
stuff.
18
00:00:51,400 --> 00:00:54,480
I'm a little cranky.
Michael's like evaluating my
19
00:00:54,480 --> 00:00:57,200
wardrobe.
I'm just going to, I want to, I
20
00:00:57,200 --> 00:01:00,520
want to throw float this out to
all the listeners out there.
21
00:01:01,040 --> 00:01:02,880
Is Navy blue that much different
than black?
22
00:01:03,360 --> 00:01:06,320
Basically the same, Michael.
They're completely different
23
00:01:06,320 --> 00:01:08,960
colors.
Well, so I'm the one that has to
24
00:01:08,960 --> 00:01:11,960
produce this and remove this
green screen.
25
00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:16,040
And there there was one.
You can go back and find it
26
00:01:16,040 --> 00:01:19,120
where the green screen's here
because he's wearing a blue
27
00:01:19,120 --> 00:01:20,640
shirt.
But not Navy.
28
00:01:20,760 --> 00:01:23,680
But for some reason, the blue
and the green is enough because,
29
00:01:23,840 --> 00:01:26,280
you know, this green screen,
maybe I should take green skin
30
00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:29,120
off a little bit.
It's not perfectly flat.
31
00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:32,400
So with these little shadows, I
have to kind of increase the
32
00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:35,840
tolerance of the, the video
editing so it can get all of it
33
00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:37,720
away.
And so sometimes, you know, our
34
00:01:37,720 --> 00:01:40,840
boom stands will slightly
disappear because it's trying to
35
00:01:40,840 --> 00:01:43,440
remove that.
My headphones good enough for
36
00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:44,760
you too, Michael the.
Headphones are good.
37
00:01:44,800 --> 00:01:46,800
Yeah, Yeah.
But I will say, I will say to
38
00:01:46,800 --> 00:01:49,160
your credit, you know, I was in
the Navy.
39
00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:53,760
I was in the Navy and you know,
there were things that we would
40
00:01:53,760 --> 00:01:56,400
call Navy blue that were just
straight up black.
41
00:01:56,520 --> 00:01:59,560
Like, no, that's Navy blue.
Like it's literally black.
42
00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:00,840
And they would call it Navy
blue.
43
00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:02,560
So you're like, you need to put
on your Navy Blues.
44
00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:05,760
Now, I was an officer, so I
didn't have that particular
45
00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:07,760
uniform, but yeah, the, the list
of guys did.
46
00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:09,960
And they they their dress Blues
were black.
47
00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:12,040
This is.
Yeah.
48
00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:14,160
Relativism creeping into the
military, huh?
49
00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:16,240
I'm just kidding.
Well, I I think I'm just
50
00:02:16,240 --> 00:02:17,720
kidding.
You have to delay which.
51
00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:21,160
Somewhere drifts over time and
it becomes tradition type of
52
00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:22,960
thing.
Well, I'll tell you on a
53
00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:25,480
positive note to get away from
all this pollen and Navy blue
54
00:02:25,480 --> 00:02:26,760
talk.
And me sniffing again.
55
00:02:26,920 --> 00:02:31,480
And the sniffling I I got a text
not too long ago I want to give
56
00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:33,520
a shout out.
While we were in the middle of
57
00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:34,880
the of the recording, the last
one, right?
58
00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:38,240
Yeah, great, Great time.
I checked my phone right right
59
00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:43,000
there and the the Texas dude.
I've been listening to y'all's
60
00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:46,680
podcast.
Big fan from none other than my
61
00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:49,760
guy Adam Angus.
We go way back.
62
00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:54,480
Sounds like he knows beef to me.
Adam Angus, that's good.
63
00:02:54,480 --> 00:02:58,400
He that, yeah, he from Memphis.
Haven't talked to him in a
64
00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:00,560
little bit but always, always a
good time.
65
00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:03,760
Does he cheer for the Memphis
Tigers or the ASU Indian slash
66
00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:07,840
Red Wolves?
I should I should ask him.
67
00:03:08,200 --> 00:03:12,360
I'm trying to think who his.
For some reason he's like a
68
00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:14,040
Texas Longhorns fan or
something.
69
00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:16,560
I'm Angus.
It goes with the IT goes with
70
00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:18,760
the I.
I might be totally butchering
71
00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:21,000
this, Adam.
You'll have to text me.
72
00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:23,600
I'm like blanking on your
college.
73
00:03:23,800 --> 00:03:25,240
Football.
You could literally text him
74
00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:28,320
right now.
I can text him right now.
75
00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:31,920
While he's texting you, you do
the texting 'cause we need to
76
00:03:31,920 --> 00:03:34,480
know.
Viewers want to know how a a
77
00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:36,600
Memphonian?
Is that what y'all wear?
78
00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:40,120
What's what is it?
I don't even know Memphian.
79
00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:46,000
Memphian became a Longhorns or
you know, probably, probably
80
00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:47,800
raise it back.
LSU Tigers.
81
00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:49,600
You could have really anything
in there.
82
00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:52,000
Yeah, we'll see.
We'll see what he says it.
83
00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:56,280
I think his dad is a Bama fan,
so we'll see.
84
00:03:56,280 --> 00:03:58,440
Yeah, I'm talking.
I'm talking to you, Lee Angus.
85
00:03:59,880 --> 00:04:02,800
I want to, I want to say that's
because there's always like,
86
00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:05,320
trash talking to everyone.
But you know, you know, you know
87
00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:08,600
how those Bama fans are.
Oh, I mean just the worst.
88
00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:10,200
I mean the worst.
Absolute worst.
89
00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:13,680
So while you're looking up that,
you know, just revisit this
90
00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:17,839
banter's all over the place.
It's just, it's just us thinking
91
00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:19,880
out loud.
You asked about chess club
92
00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:22,079
interviews.
Oh yeah, on the last.
93
00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:24,360
You need to interview for chess
club.
94
00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:27,480
Yeah, 'cause last so.
What do you wear to a chess club
95
00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:28,960
interview?
I I I have so many questions.
96
00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:30,640
Wear a school uniform.
That's what you do.
97
00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:33,240
Yeah, 'cause 'cause our school
has uniforms.
98
00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:38,440
But last year, a talented group
of 5th graders, I don't want to
99
00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:41,520
take anything away from them,
but very rambunctious.
100
00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:43,960
And it was just a a pool of
guys.
101
00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:47,600
And it's like, I think even if I
had done interviews with them
102
00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:50,440
last year and kind of had been
able to set the tone instead of
103
00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:53,240
just been saying these are the
guys who are, you know, it was
104
00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:55,800
guys and some gals who are going
to be in chess club like, 'cause
105
00:04:55,800 --> 00:04:58,600
if you feel like, man, there's
something on the line, yeah,
106
00:04:58,840 --> 00:05:01,800
that makes it.
But regardless, they, they were
107
00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:05,200
20 people who were interested.
And I just can't take 20 man.
108
00:05:05,880 --> 00:05:08,800
Cuts to the tournament.
Yeah, the, there's a tournament.
109
00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:14,440
The bus only seats 14 + a
chaperone.
110
00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:16,760
We end up taking two buses cause
it's lower school and middle
111
00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:18,520
school.
One day, sorry, I'm gonna have
112
00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:19,720
to cough here in a second, clear
my throat.
113
00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:24,600
But so they played and I was
evaluating, you know, I played
114
00:05:24,600 --> 00:05:27,800
against them.
Headley beat all of them.
115
00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:28,640
I just, that's right.
I mean.
116
00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:29,920
Hopefully.
I mean, if I'm.
117
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:33,040
Getting beat by a lower school
guy should be Hopefully it's,
118
00:05:33,080 --> 00:05:35,760
you know, someone that's like
studied with Magnus.
119
00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:37,440
This is probably more than what
you want to know.
120
00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:38,280
No, I, I.
More than what?
121
00:05:38,280 --> 00:05:39,960
Than what the listers I want.
I have so many questions.
122
00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:42,200
Is there like an equipment
manager for like the chess team?
123
00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:45,280
Like, you know, like take stats
and like you know.
124
00:05:45,280 --> 00:05:47,960
Yeah.
So you know, very simply I would
125
00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:50,840
say I, I would always, I would
purposely like leave the board
126
00:05:50,840 --> 00:05:52,440
kind of just right.
Hey can you help me set up the
127
00:05:52,440 --> 00:05:55,520
board?
So knowing how the pieces are
128
00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:58,800
set up doesn't make you a good
player but but not knowing how
129
00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:01,040
the piece is set up means you've
not played a lot that.
130
00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:02,440
Knight bishops.
Tricky King.
131
00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:05,200
Queen is, yeah, the, the church
is next to the power.
132
00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:07,480
That's all I tell them.
Yeah, the bishops right next to
133
00:06:07,480 --> 00:06:09,560
the power of the king and queen
in there.
134
00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:13,040
And the Queens, you know, ladies
are fastidious about color.
135
00:06:13,280 --> 00:06:15,080
Queens always go on their own
color, so.
136
00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:17,160
Yeah, I like.
I'll give them those hints and
137
00:06:17,160 --> 00:06:20,720
stuff, but then I, you know, I,
I, I love to watch them and
138
00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:24,680
like, 'cause you know, a player
who's played, you know, I, I
139
00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:28,000
don't know what I am 11112
hundred 1300 somewhere around
140
00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:32,360
there on the fee day.
But you know, the better you
141
00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:33,800
get, you can kind of see in
advance.
142
00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:38,320
And I love like making a move
and then seeing their like,
143
00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:40,480
because some people don't know
and then then they're going,
144
00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:43,800
some of them with their eyes get
big and they're like, and those
145
00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:46,000
are people like, OK, they could
have probably, you know, a
146
00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:48,040
better player would have seen
this coming, but now they
147
00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:50,360
recognized it and now they're
problem solving to get out of
148
00:06:50,360 --> 00:06:51,800
it.
And then, then I'm taking notes
149
00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:54,480
on that person and, and, you
know, putting them up to the
150
00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:55,480
top, 'cause that's what I'm
looking for.
151
00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:58,560
Like how do they respond?
You know, I forked one person
152
00:06:58,560 --> 00:07:02,040
and they were like, I don't
think I have a good move.
153
00:07:03,440 --> 00:07:05,480
And I put one person in
checkmate.
154
00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:07,840
And it took them a while and
they were just studying it,
155
00:07:07,840 --> 00:07:11,400
studying it, studying it.
And he's like, I don't think my
156
00:07:11,400 --> 00:07:13,840
king can move anywhere.
I'm like, you can't, you can't.
157
00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:16,000
You're checking, but you know,
it's good that like I'm
158
00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:19,160
evaluating, you know how
thoughtful and and really
159
00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:22,120
behavior because you know they
there.
160
00:07:22,120 --> 00:07:24,360
Was chess club kids?
You're right, they're always out
161
00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:26,360
of control.
Well, they're.
162
00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:29,680
Just.
So it's good and we had our
163
00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:32,040
first official chess club today
and it was good.
164
00:07:32,600 --> 00:07:36,560
I set the tone early, got them
to be quiet.
165
00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:39,560
Man.
We went over openings 'cause you
166
00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:41,840
know, this is way more than
people want to know.
167
00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:44,240
But I will say one more thing,
then I'll then I'll shut up.
168
00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:46,440
I'm trying to give you time to
get this text back from your
169
00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:50,800
friend, but I know I don't know
what it is about this age group.
170
00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:53,760
They always want to open up with
their A and their H.
171
00:07:53,880 --> 00:07:58,160
Those are your side pawns.
Open those up, get your rooks
172
00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:00,960
out immediately and then try to
start doing stuff with your
173
00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:04,040
rooks.
I'm like, no, don't do that.
174
00:08:04,040 --> 00:08:05,880
And I would always do the London
opening.
175
00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:12,800
So my white Bishop is just lined
up on what would it be like A
176
00:08:15,080 --> 00:08:17,560
6A6 or A5?
I'd have to look at the board.
177
00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:20,840
I'm not Magnus or Hikaru but and
they would bring like 3
178
00:08:20,840 --> 00:08:23,760
different players.
My Bishop just sniped their Rook
179
00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:24,920
away.
I'm like you're gonna, you're
180
00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:26,320
not gonna like this.
Boom.
181
00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:28,640
Boom and never gonna learn.
I like it.
182
00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:32,760
Well, you really stalled a lot
and Adam has not gotten back.
183
00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:36,960
To me.
So sorry to disappoint everyone
184
00:08:36,960 --> 00:08:38,120
out there.
No, everyone's like, what's his
185
00:08:38,120 --> 00:08:41,120
favorite football team?
Maybe, maybe yeah, we'll we'll
186
00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:44,280
mention briefly next podcast or
something just for those trying
187
00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:48,360
to bridge the gap.
But this morning or evening or
188
00:08:48,360 --> 00:08:49,720
afternoon, I don't know, when
you're listening to this
189
00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:53,000
podcast, you're gonna hear a
little bit about the Holy
190
00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:56,480
Spirit.
And man, I'm coaching K through
191
00:08:56,480 --> 00:08:59,160
12 soccer and talk about
rambunctious.
192
00:08:59,560 --> 00:09:04,040
We had a great first practice
today, not as good, a little bit
193
00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:06,120
out there.
So we need a I'm trying to
194
00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:09,120
connect it somehow, Holy Spirit.
You need the Holy Spirit come in
195
00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:12,520
and sanctify those kids some.
Sanctification.
196
00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:15,680
I like it.
So join us as we take it to the
197
00:09:15,680 --> 00:09:24,800
next level from the hearts of
the Low Country in South
198
00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:29,000
Carolina.
It's the Take Two podcast where
199
00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:31,160
we take theology to the next
level.
200
00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:34,960
Well, Michael, if you are
following along, I'm sure you
201
00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:36,200
are.
We're going through this
202
00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:41,480
foundations class at our church,
hitting these pivotal essential
203
00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:45,280
topics, things like bibliology
and theology proper and
204
00:09:45,280 --> 00:09:49,440
Christology and anthropology,
and we find ourself at
205
00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:50,960
pneumatology and all these
fancy.
206
00:09:50,960 --> 00:09:52,880
Words.
It's about your lungs.
207
00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:54,200
It's the study of the lungs,
right?
208
00:09:55,120 --> 00:09:56,440
You would, you could think you
could make that.
209
00:09:56,440 --> 00:09:58,440
That's a good, good connection.
You're.
210
00:09:58,560 --> 00:10:00,160
You're getting good word play
there.
211
00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:01,080
Yeah.
Yeah.
212
00:10:01,240 --> 00:10:05,760
Now that that's good.
But I mean, you really, I think
213
00:10:05,760 --> 00:10:07,880
Pastor Joel said that too.
Like, you know, it could be the
214
00:10:07,880 --> 00:10:11,680
study of wind or breath or or
whatever this context we're
215
00:10:11,680 --> 00:10:15,240
thinking the study of the Holy
Spirits.
216
00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:18,160
When I, when I, when you think
about the etymology, there is in
217
00:10:18,160 --> 00:10:22,440
Scripture some intentional word
play going on with the Holy.
218
00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:24,520
You see your Holy Spirit
associated with wind from time
219
00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:27,760
to time.
Yeah, and one of those is
220
00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:30,800
Nicodemus.
Jack would preach on Nicodemus
221
00:10:30,800 --> 00:10:32,600
and it was always Nick at night.
I don't know if you've.
222
00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:37,880
So what a great title.
But you know he's asking Jesus
223
00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:39,240
questions.
You like that?
224
00:10:39,240 --> 00:10:40,840
I.
Forgot but I've I've heard.
225
00:10:41,160 --> 00:10:43,480
This before, Yeah, he's asking
Jesus these questions and he's
226
00:10:43,480 --> 00:10:46,080
like, you're ruler of Israel and
you don't know these things.
227
00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:49,040
And he makes this word play
about the spirit and the, you
228
00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:52,040
know, the wind blows and you
don't know where where it is,
229
00:10:52,920 --> 00:10:55,640
but you see the effects of it.
So too is the spirit.
230
00:10:55,640 --> 00:10:57,800
And he's kind of, you know,
using that same word and doing
231
00:10:57,800 --> 00:11:00,160
that word play.
And then in Acts 2, Pentecost,
232
00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:02,480
there's this mighty rushing wind
with with the Spirit.
233
00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:05,520
So a little bit, a little bit
behind the scenes with the
234
00:11:05,520 --> 00:11:08,000
etymology, like, you know,
where, where, where is it?
235
00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:12,800
Where do we get this word from?
And Holy Spirit is coming on the
236
00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:17,800
heels of theology proper and
Christology where, you know, we
237
00:11:17,800 --> 00:11:20,640
think of the Trinity.
I don't think it's a common
238
00:11:20,640 --> 00:11:23,040
misconception, but I think
people do mistake the Holy
239
00:11:23,040 --> 00:11:26,880
Spirit for a force or an
impersonal, you know thing
240
00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:29,560
rather than a person.
Yeah, and he is a a.
241
00:11:29,800 --> 00:11:36,160
He is God equal codivine with
the Father, the Son Co eternal.
242
00:11:36,480 --> 00:11:39,800
All the things that are about
the of the nature of the Spirit
243
00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:43,440
that are true of the Father and
the Son are true of the Spirit.
244
00:11:43,440 --> 00:11:46,480
It's really the relationships
they have between each other.
245
00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:50,240
And then some people will call
it the the economic Trinity,
246
00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:54,240
like their roles, like what,
what they've chosen to do in, in
247
00:11:54,400 --> 00:11:56,520
all that they're doing.
So they they take on different
248
00:11:56,520 --> 00:11:58,000
roles and they have different
relationships.
249
00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:02,040
But as far as the nature of the
essence it's got, He's God now.
250
00:12:02,320 --> 00:12:04,640
That that is good.
Pastor Joel mentioned the
251
00:12:04,640 --> 00:12:06,560
Athanasian Creed.
You did.
252
00:12:06,560 --> 00:12:08,040
You did it as well.
And yours, right?
253
00:12:08,040 --> 00:12:10,520
Yeah.
So something that is important,
254
00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:15,000
you know, be familiar with Reed.
That kind of helps give us some
255
00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:17,840
guardrails to stay within.
And I read a lot of it during
256
00:12:17,920 --> 00:12:23,160
when I was on theology proper.
Why would I have read it for
257
00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:24,920
theology proper?
What was I reading it for?
258
00:12:25,280 --> 00:12:28,360
I'm just trying to think back.
I, I don't know if you were, I
259
00:12:28,360 --> 00:12:32,880
feel like all of y'all kind of
talked about the Trinity in some
260
00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:34,760
aspects.
Oh yes, yes, because we did talk
261
00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:38,200
about the Trinity at the end of
theology proper because God in
262
00:12:38,200 --> 00:12:40,200
in his proper, because I wasn't
necessarily talking about the
263
00:12:40,200 --> 00:12:41,840
Father, although we, you know.
But oh, I see.
264
00:12:41,880 --> 00:12:45,760
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, but we and read it and
265
00:12:45,760 --> 00:12:48,200
it's like, how many ways can
they say the same thing a
266
00:12:48,200 --> 00:12:51,520
different way?
But they really want to draw a
267
00:12:51,520 --> 00:12:56,040
tight box around this so that
there can be no confusion on the
268
00:12:56,040 --> 00:12:59,560
Father, Son, the Holy Spirit,
their Trinity, three in one, one
269
00:12:59,560 --> 00:13:02,880
being 3 persons.
Go go read it.
270
00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:03,920
I you know, you can look at
that.
271
00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:05,760
That's right.
It it does draw that box where
272
00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:08,080
you know, if you're inbounds out
of bounds, you can you can
273
00:13:08,080 --> 00:13:10,320
figure figure that.
And I'll say one more thing.
274
00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:13,280
I don't think Pastor Joel
developed this at length, but
275
00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:17,200
it's a good study to just, you
know, write outlook up all the
276
00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:21,000
ways Holy spirits mentioned that
kind of point to his personhood
277
00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:23,480
with his actions.
He can be grieved.
278
00:13:23,480 --> 00:13:27,120
He loves, he speaks, he gives,
you know, he's a counselor and a
279
00:13:27,120 --> 00:13:30,280
comforter and a helper and these
things you would, you know,
280
00:13:30,400 --> 00:13:36,920
attribute to a a person and the
reason going back to the Trinity
281
00:13:36,960 --> 00:13:39,960
specifically, you know, you
would think it's outlined there
282
00:13:39,960 --> 00:13:42,240
pretty clearly curly, but but
people get get this.
283
00:13:42,240 --> 00:13:43,760
Wrong.
There are people who get it
284
00:13:43,760 --> 00:13:47,320
wrong, you know, Mormons get it
wrong.
285
00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:53,400
I talked to a guy I graduated
with and they would say that the
286
00:13:53,400 --> 00:13:56,800
spirit, you know, all, all of us
were spirit children of Father
287
00:13:56,800 --> 00:14:01,200
God and some of those were
better than others.
288
00:14:01,560 --> 00:14:06,960
And Jesus was a spirit child who
got a body and then came back
289
00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:11,280
and, you know, did perfectly did
what Father God wanted.
290
00:14:11,760 --> 00:14:14,240
And the Spirit is also God
because he perfectly does it.
291
00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:20,000
But in their theology, in order
to be purified and really go to
292
00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:22,840
that next level, you have to go
through the process of getting a
293
00:14:22,840 --> 00:14:26,000
body and coming back.
And I asked him, the Spirit
294
00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:29,520
never got a body right?
And he said, no, I'm like, how
295
00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:31,240
does that line up with this
idea?
296
00:14:31,240 --> 00:14:34,160
And I gave him the passage of
the doctrine that in order to
297
00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:37,080
really be the best, you have to
like, how could that?
298
00:14:37,360 --> 00:14:40,920
How could that person be God?
And you know it, They really
299
00:14:40,920 --> 00:14:42,680
are.
Try try theists.
300
00:14:42,960 --> 00:14:44,360
Yeah, when it when it comes
down.
301
00:14:44,480 --> 00:14:47,560
Or more.
Or more 'cause everyone, I mean,
302
00:14:47,560 --> 00:14:49,120
like eventually that's the goal,
right?
303
00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:53,240
Like become, become a God.
So that that's why this kind of
304
00:14:53,240 --> 00:14:55,720
thing is important.
And I would say, you know,
305
00:14:55,720 --> 00:14:58,080
creeds, confessions, these
things, not the end all be all,
306
00:14:58,080 --> 00:15:01,160
but they do give us a good box
to check yourself that way.
307
00:15:01,200 --> 00:15:03,560
So, and I'm not saying they
can't be wrong, you know, but I
308
00:15:03,560 --> 00:15:06,360
think they've been tried and
tested for it for the most part.
309
00:15:06,520 --> 00:15:08,200
It's a good place at least to
compare your note till you're
310
00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:10,040
close.
Are we saying something totally
311
00:15:10,040 --> 00:15:11,440
different than you?
Might want to do some further
312
00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:15,160
reflection in scripture.
Yeah, and, and Scripture does
313
00:15:15,160 --> 00:15:18,840
give support for the the Spirit
being a person and, and the
314
00:15:18,840 --> 00:15:24,240
Spirit being different than the
Father or the Son in the 1st
315
00:15:24,240 --> 00:15:25,360
place.
You'd run into it.
316
00:15:25,360 --> 00:15:28,120
You know, in the beginning, God
created the heavens of earth.
317
00:15:28,120 --> 00:15:29,480
The earth was wooden, without
form.
318
00:15:29,480 --> 00:15:32,080
Dark was on the face of the
deep, and the spirit of was on
319
00:15:32,200 --> 00:15:33,880
of God was on the face of the
water.
320
00:15:33,880 --> 00:15:35,840
Yeah, you don't have to.
You don't have to read very long
321
00:15:35,840 --> 00:15:37,720
before you like Holy Spirit's a
New Testament thing.
322
00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:39,400
It's like, well no, just open
your Bible.
323
00:15:39,400 --> 00:15:40,680
Right.
Yeah, yeah, Open to the very
324
00:15:40,680 --> 00:15:42,080
beginning.
The spirits moved there.
325
00:15:43,320 --> 00:15:47,320
You know, I think Genesis 127
let us make man in our own
326
00:15:47,320 --> 00:15:49,920
image.
You know, if you're following
327
00:15:49,920 --> 00:15:54,720
Hyzer exactly, he's going to say
that's the Elohim, the the
328
00:15:54,720 --> 00:15:57,400
Divine Council.
But there's a lot of people who
329
00:15:57,400 --> 00:16:00,440
say, no, that's the Trinity.
Yeah, I don't have to.
330
00:16:00,440 --> 00:16:01,840
I don't know the way I had to
weigh in on that or.
331
00:16:02,440 --> 00:16:04,360
Or yeah, I don't.
Yeah, that verse doesn't make a
332
00:16:04,360 --> 00:16:06,480
brick.
Like my whole theology's like
333
00:16:06,760 --> 00:16:13,040
change because we see the spirit
active all over the place in the
334
00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:14,200
Old Testament.
I mean, you know, maybe.
335
00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:16,440
It's not super expensive, but
it's like he's, you know,
336
00:16:16,440 --> 00:16:20,880
slaying those people, comes on
Saul, leaves Saul, comes on
337
00:16:20,880 --> 00:16:23,520
David, from what we can tell,
never leaves David.
338
00:16:24,520 --> 00:16:27,680
These these skilled people in
the Tabernacle, it's like, oh, I
339
00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:29,840
don't know their they got, they
got, I should have looked up
340
00:16:29,840 --> 00:16:32,720
their names, but it's like man,
spirits not just coming on, you
341
00:16:32,720 --> 00:16:34,840
know, King David, but some of
these these builders, you know,
342
00:16:34,840 --> 00:16:35,960
you.
Wouldn't have been able to
343
00:16:35,960 --> 00:16:38,080
pronounce those builders names
anyway so.
344
00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:43,360
It's fair, fair points.
And then what what's
345
00:16:43,360 --> 00:16:46,880
interesting, I think this is
subject to a little debate as
346
00:16:46,880 --> 00:16:48,400
well.
In what capacity?
347
00:16:48,400 --> 00:16:51,680
But we look at the New Testament
and the Holy Spirit's much more
348
00:16:51,680 --> 00:16:55,600
explicit, much, much more
defined.
349
00:16:55,600 --> 00:16:59,960
And we see, you know, every
believer much more explicitly
350
00:16:59,960 --> 00:17:01,680
receives the Holy Spirit versus
the Old Testament.
351
00:17:01,680 --> 00:17:04,680
You see, like comes, goes or
it's on this person, meaning it
352
00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:07,760
wasn't at some point.
Yeah, I would say, you know,
353
00:17:08,119 --> 00:17:11,400
probably David was the closest
example of what a New Testament
354
00:17:11,400 --> 00:17:13,640
believer might, what we might
experience.
355
00:17:13,640 --> 00:17:15,960
I wonder if his experience was
different than our experience of
356
00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:17,599
the believer.
We we just don't have those
357
00:17:17,599 --> 00:17:21,040
types of details.
But I mean this part of the new
358
00:17:21,040 --> 00:17:24,400
covenant, I mean that that the
Holy Spirit is given in a new
359
00:17:24,400 --> 00:17:31,640
way, you know, in the upper
upper room discourse, you know,
360
00:17:31,640 --> 00:17:34,200
he says, you know, I got to go
away so the helper can come to
361
00:17:34,200 --> 00:17:36,520
you and.
That's a good thing too, right?
362
00:17:36,640 --> 00:17:39,720
Like it's like I'm going away.
But this is good 'cause you will
363
00:17:39,720 --> 00:17:42,600
get get the Holy Spirit.
Pastor Jill, he took some time
364
00:17:42,600 --> 00:17:47,200
to develop this passage in
Second Corinthians chapter 3
365
00:17:47,200 --> 00:17:48,960
that talks about what you're
talking about, Old Covenant, new
366
00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:51,440
Covenant, if you want to lay it
down for us.
367
00:17:51,880 --> 00:17:56,440
Yeah, so it might chapter 3 and
2nd Corinthians, not too long,
368
00:17:56,440 --> 00:17:58,480
but it's probably too long for
us to read all of it.
369
00:17:58,800 --> 00:18:01,800
But you should go read it.
But I'll read 7 through 11, then
370
00:18:01,800 --> 00:18:03,680
I'll end with 18.
So 7 says.
371
00:18:03,680 --> 00:18:07,080
But if the ministry of death and
letters engraved on stones is
372
00:18:07,080 --> 00:18:10,880
talking about the the old
covenant came with glory, so
373
00:18:10,880 --> 00:18:13,880
that the sons of Israel could
not look intently at the face of
374
00:18:13,880 --> 00:18:18,240
Moses because of the glory of
his face fading as it was, how
375
00:18:18,240 --> 00:18:22,280
will the ministry of the Spirit
fell to be even more with glory?
376
00:18:22,600 --> 00:18:25,240
For if the ministry of
condemnation has glory, much
377
00:18:25,240 --> 00:18:28,200
more does the ministry of
righteousness abound in glory.
378
00:18:28,440 --> 00:18:32,200
For indeed, what had glory in
this case has no glory because
379
00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:36,960
of the glory that surpasses it.
For if that which fades away was
380
00:18:36,960 --> 00:18:41,320
the glory, much more that which
remains is in glory.
381
00:18:41,640 --> 00:18:44,040
And he goes on talking about our
hope, you know, you know,
382
00:18:44,920 --> 00:18:47,200
talking about the Old Testament
and the Old Covenant and the
383
00:18:47,200 --> 00:18:51,680
veil being torn in two.
He ends in verse 18, it says,
384
00:18:51,680 --> 00:18:56,440
but we all with unveiled face,
beholding as in a mirror the
385
00:18:56,440 --> 00:19:00,240
glory of the Lord are being
transformed into the same image
386
00:19:00,520 --> 00:19:05,840
from glory to glory, just as
from the Lord, the Spirit.
387
00:19:05,840 --> 00:19:07,680
So it ends with his emphasis on
the Spirit.
388
00:19:07,840 --> 00:19:10,560
Yeah, that that is so good.
And it what I think is
389
00:19:10,560 --> 00:19:13,720
noteworthy about the passage is
that old covenant had some
390
00:19:13,720 --> 00:19:15,440
glory.
Like like it's not you just
391
00:19:15,440 --> 00:19:16,880
don't push it.
And I think we've been seeing
392
00:19:16,880 --> 00:19:21,760
that in Romans as well and the
role the Spirit plays in that.
393
00:19:21,760 --> 00:19:26,520
We'll see the same kind of idea
in Ezekiel 36, the little
394
00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:30,200
heading and the ESP for this
whole section, which just like
395
00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:32,160
Second Corinthians 3, can't read
the whole thing.
396
00:19:32,480 --> 00:19:34,080
It it's a lot.
You should read the whole thing.
397
00:19:34,600 --> 00:19:37,680
It's titled I will put my Spirit
within you.
398
00:19:37,680 --> 00:19:42,240
And starting in verse 25,
Ezekiel writes, I will sprinkle
399
00:19:42,240 --> 00:19:45,000
clean water on you and you shall
be clean from all your
400
00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:46,840
uncleanness and from all your
idols.
401
00:19:46,840 --> 00:19:49,680
I will cleanse you and I will
give you a new hearts and a new
402
00:19:49,680 --> 00:19:53,200
spirit I will put within you.
And I will remove the heart of
403
00:19:53,200 --> 00:19:55,640
stone from your flesh and give
you a heart of flesh.
404
00:19:55,640 --> 00:19:58,920
And I will put my spirit within
you and cause you to walk in my
405
00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:02,080
statutes and be careful to obey
my rules.
406
00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:05,000
So we see the spirit that that
that's one of distinguishing
407
00:20:05,120 --> 00:20:07,920
features of the new covenant,
that you'll have this new heart.
408
00:20:08,360 --> 00:20:11,360
And that that comes along with
the Holy Spirit and his work.
409
00:20:11,920 --> 00:20:13,760
Yeah.
And and so all throughout the
410
00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:17,600
covenants, you see this kind of
future looking forward to the
411
00:20:17,600 --> 00:20:21,520
new covenant, you know, talks
about, you know, Abraham, I'm
412
00:20:21,520 --> 00:20:23,640
going to make a great nation
through you.
413
00:20:23,640 --> 00:20:25,720
All the nations through you're
going to be blessed.
414
00:20:25,720 --> 00:20:27,680
Talks about David, you're going
to have a son that sits on the
415
00:20:27,680 --> 00:20:30,400
throne forever.
He's going to reign forever in
416
00:20:30,400 --> 00:20:32,600
peace.
And then, you know, we see
417
00:20:32,600 --> 00:20:35,720
Jeremiah 3131, you know, talking
about this new covenant, Ezekiel
418
00:20:35,720 --> 00:20:37,040
36 talking about this new
covenant.
419
00:20:37,440 --> 00:20:41,480
Isaiah talks about, you know,
there's going to be a prophet
420
00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:44,800
who's going to come and he's
going to like make make straight
421
00:20:44,800 --> 00:20:47,920
the path for the Messiah.
And he's going to like bring up
422
00:20:47,920 --> 00:20:49,680
the lowlands, bring down the
Highlands.
423
00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:53,720
Great song.
And Handel's Messiah should go
424
00:20:53,720 --> 00:20:56,600
listen to it.
Get ready for for Christmas.
425
00:20:56,600 --> 00:21:01,280
But John the Baptist is that guy
who's really starting to usher
426
00:21:01,280 --> 00:21:05,360
in that transition.
And it's kind of a already not
427
00:21:05,360 --> 00:21:07,320
yet.
And we're kind of still in some
428
00:21:07,320 --> 00:21:10,280
sense, and it's already not yet.
But John the Baptist is that
429
00:21:10,280 --> 00:21:13,520
prophet that Isaiah talked about
coming on the scene, going to
430
00:21:13,520 --> 00:21:16,640
start proclaiming the Kingdom of
God is at hand.
431
00:21:16,640 --> 00:21:20,680
And then, of course, you know,
Jesus, come, God the Son comes
432
00:21:20,680 --> 00:21:25,440
on the scene and he's going to,
you know, live his life, build a
433
00:21:25,440 --> 00:21:29,880
ministry, fulfill the law, dies
of sacrifice.
434
00:21:30,400 --> 00:21:34,120
And as he's dying, we do it all,
all the, all the time We do the
435
00:21:34,120 --> 00:21:36,760
Lord's Supper.
He's like, you know, says this
436
00:21:36,760 --> 00:21:38,520
is my bread, it's broken for
you.
437
00:21:38,520 --> 00:21:41,360
Take and eat it.
Then he says, this is no, the
438
00:21:41,360 --> 00:21:46,640
cup, this is my blood poured out
for you, a sign of the new
439
00:21:46,640 --> 00:21:47,880
covenant.
And so he's really
440
00:21:47,880 --> 00:21:50,840
instantiating, Oh, I'm, I'm
ushering in the new covenant
441
00:21:50,840 --> 00:21:52,480
that these other prophets have
talked about.
442
00:21:52,760 --> 00:21:55,240
Wow.
And you know, if we keep going
443
00:21:55,240 --> 00:21:59,360
along in this story we read in
the New Testament, we get
444
00:21:59,360 --> 00:22:04,280
Pentecost, Acts chapter 2 and we
see the Spirit poured out in a
445
00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:06,440
pretty remarkable way.
We'll probably talk about a
446
00:22:06,440 --> 00:22:09,680
little later a lot of debate
about, hey, is this prescriptive
447
00:22:09,680 --> 00:22:12,000
for every Christian or this just
descriptive?
448
00:22:12,000 --> 00:22:15,080
Or is it maybe maybe not
necessary.
449
00:22:15,080 --> 00:22:17,480
A lot of a lot of good questions
surrounded.
450
00:22:17,560 --> 00:22:21,040
Fire on your head.
Am I am IA real Christian?
451
00:22:21,040 --> 00:22:23,600
Yeah.
And what is mighty rushing?
452
00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:27,360
When is the the fire and and the
speaking in tongues that just
453
00:22:27,360 --> 00:22:33,080
works in a substantial just
amaze amazing way Happens in
454
00:22:33,080 --> 00:22:37,160
Acts 2 and Joe kind of zooms out
and in light of all these great
455
00:22:37,160 --> 00:22:40,240
passages, we really take it for
granted this new covenant's like
456
00:22:40,680 --> 00:22:43,680
do we really understand the
magnificence and marvelousness
457
00:22:43,680 --> 00:22:46,240
of what we've got?
Yeah, 'cause I I don't know that
458
00:22:46,240 --> 00:22:51,520
your Old Testament believer had
the help to be sanctified in the
459
00:22:51,520 --> 00:22:54,760
same way that we do.
So it's hard to imagine what
460
00:22:54,760 --> 00:22:58,280
that looked like it but we know
it's different and grander and
461
00:22:58,360 --> 00:23:00,720
but this is all we know.
So it's hard to like compare the
462
00:23:00,720 --> 00:23:02,720
two.
I I wonder if there was an Old
463
00:23:02,720 --> 00:23:07,280
Testament believer around the
time of Pentecost who would be
464
00:23:07,280 --> 00:23:11,200
like, oh, this is how it was and
now this is what it was like and
465
00:23:11,320 --> 00:23:12,960
difference.
We need to interview that guy.
466
00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:13,960
Or, Oh yeah, we'll get him on
the pod.
467
00:23:15,320 --> 00:23:17,760
That'd be great.
But we take it for granted.
468
00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:19,160
You know who doesn't take it for
granted?
469
00:23:19,640 --> 00:23:21,520
Pentecostals.
They are leaning.
470
00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:24,680
They're taking a lot of they,
they weren't taking that for
471
00:23:24,680 --> 00:23:26,760
granted, but they're taking a
lot and claiming it.
472
00:23:26,760 --> 00:23:28,200
Yeah, yeah.
They are.
473
00:23:28,600 --> 00:23:29,240
They are.
Yeah.
474
00:23:29,240 --> 00:23:33,040
So I think, I think we would
disagree slightly with some of
475
00:23:33,040 --> 00:23:37,080
their theological stances.
You know, no disrespect, Bradley
476
00:23:37,080 --> 00:23:39,880
and Brandon, hopefully y'all are
still tuning in.
477
00:23:39,880 --> 00:23:44,760
But it's central to to their way
of thinking about church.
478
00:23:44,760 --> 00:23:49,520
They want the Spirit to be there
with them and and they want to
479
00:23:49,520 --> 00:23:54,680
live in the Spirit and have the
spirit manifest in in, in good
480
00:23:54,680 --> 00:23:57,160
works and perhaps miraculous
things.
481
00:23:58,400 --> 00:24:01,560
Joel threw out a bunch of stats.
I'm going to butcher the history
482
00:24:01,560 --> 00:24:05,080
so I won't won't get into it.
But his point was Pentecostals
483
00:24:05,080 --> 00:24:08,720
it it's relatively new, kind of
started the turn of the after
484
00:24:08,720 --> 00:24:12,400
the 1900s, nineteen 01 started
gaining some steam.
485
00:24:12,680 --> 00:24:15,400
And, and really, if you look
across across the world, it's
486
00:24:15,400 --> 00:24:19,080
just growing rapidly, you know,
in places like Africa and, you
487
00:24:19,080 --> 00:24:23,880
know, South America and you
really see this movement growing
488
00:24:23,880 --> 00:24:27,480
in a, in a real remarkable way
where it resonates with people
489
00:24:27,480 --> 00:24:30,080
and, and some level, and maybe
some of that's tied up to some
490
00:24:30,080 --> 00:24:33,360
of the prosperity stuff a little
bit, maybe probably a lot of
491
00:24:33,360 --> 00:24:36,640
it's not it's, it's, it's really
a broad term, especially
492
00:24:37,160 --> 00:24:40,280
charismatic is much more broad
than Pentecostal, where I don't
493
00:24:40,280 --> 00:24:42,240
really know what it means if
Benny Hinn and John Piper are
494
00:24:42,240 --> 00:24:44,280
the same.
I don't know that means
495
00:24:44,280 --> 00:24:45,880
everyone.
So I understand why these.
496
00:24:45,880 --> 00:24:48,720
Numbers can be so large.
Yeah, there's a lot of people.
497
00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:52,080
I mean, in some sense that we,
you know, we would say, I don't,
498
00:24:52,280 --> 00:24:54,080
it'd be hard to classify us as
charismatic.
499
00:24:54,080 --> 00:24:57,880
But we are not closed to the
possibility that someone could
500
00:24:57,880 --> 00:24:59,960
speak in tongues.
We're not close the possibility
501
00:24:59,960 --> 00:25:01,600
that God could use someone to
heal.
502
00:25:01,600 --> 00:25:04,640
So someone may say, oh, you 2,
you're charismatic.
503
00:25:04,640 --> 00:25:06,640
No, I yeah, that's your
definition, I think.
504
00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:09,560
I think MacArthur's by himself
over there in California.
505
00:25:09,560 --> 00:25:11,520
I'm just kidding.
There's a lot with him, but
506
00:25:11,520 --> 00:25:13,960
that, I mean, never really that
actually makes sense with some
507
00:25:13,960 --> 00:25:16,000
of these stats that I'm seeing
like if that, if that's the
508
00:25:16,040 --> 00:25:20,160
you're open to this possibility.
So let's talk a little more
509
00:25:20,840 --> 00:25:25,000
about Acts 2.
This gift of the Holy Spirit may
510
00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:27,360
be tied in with it.
Talk about baptism in the
511
00:25:27,360 --> 00:25:29,120
Spirit.
What's this mean?
512
00:25:29,120 --> 00:25:30,640
We hear it a lot.
It is.
513
00:25:30,640 --> 00:25:33,320
Is it associated with I feel
like I'm in the Spirit?
514
00:25:33,320 --> 00:25:35,520
Is it manifested by I speak in
tongues?
515
00:25:35,520 --> 00:25:37,040
So I've had the baptism in the
Spirit.
516
00:25:37,400 --> 00:25:39,480
Is it a term that applies to all
believers?
517
00:25:39,480 --> 00:25:43,080
I think there's a lot of
confusion around that term
518
00:25:43,080 --> 00:25:48,640
specifically and what it means.
Yeah, and we, we did a whole
519
00:25:48,640 --> 00:25:52,360
podcast on baptism.
So go back and listen 'cause we,
520
00:25:52,400 --> 00:25:54,800
we'll, we'll hit some of this.
And I was just thinking, should
521
00:25:54,800 --> 00:25:57,520
I try to pull up some of those
notes 'cause I kind of detailed
522
00:25:57,520 --> 00:25:58,800
a lot of them.
But, you know, I don't have
523
00:25:58,800 --> 00:26:00,560
instant recall, especially on
today while I'm fighting
524
00:26:00,560 --> 00:26:05,960
allergies.
But yeah, so we we do see these
525
00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:07,920
ideas of being baptized in the
Spirit.
526
00:26:08,400 --> 00:26:10,640
There's, you know, we talked
about being baptized and being
527
00:26:10,640 --> 00:26:13,560
immersed in and changed by.
Pickling.
528
00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:15,920
Pickling Dying.
Dying.
529
00:26:16,440 --> 00:26:19,000
Dying cloth.
So hopefully, you know,
530
00:26:19,280 --> 00:26:21,080
hopefully we're all being
baptized in spirit.
531
00:26:21,080 --> 00:26:23,680
I want to be changed by the
Spirit.
532
00:26:23,680 --> 00:26:27,280
I want to be changed by Christ,
you know, And so, yeah.
533
00:26:27,280 --> 00:26:29,160
So I don't know if you wanted to
go through some of the the
534
00:26:29,160 --> 00:26:30,800
different examples that that he
gave.
535
00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:34,920
Yeah, so and what's interesting
about this term, 'cause I think
536
00:26:34,920 --> 00:26:39,000
it's thrown around a lot, It's
not like it's on every page of
537
00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:40,480
Scripture.
It's like it's never mentioned.
538
00:26:41,000 --> 00:26:44,600
But this phrase, baptism in the
Spirit or a close rendering of
539
00:26:44,600 --> 00:26:47,680
that phrase, it's really only
mentioned 7 times in all of the
540
00:26:47,680 --> 00:26:50,200
New Testament.
So small sample size, you
541
00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:52,480
probably need to be a little bit
careful.
542
00:26:53,520 --> 00:26:55,600
And I think the question is if
you're talking to, you know,
543
00:26:55,600 --> 00:26:58,560
someone that's full-fledged
Pentecostal. 2nd Baptism.
544
00:26:59,360 --> 00:27:00,880
Yeah, yeah.
They would basically say, yeah,
545
00:27:01,280 --> 00:27:04,080
this is like a special class of
Christian that you got, you
546
00:27:04,080 --> 00:27:06,240
know, your average Christian
then like you're super out of,
547
00:27:06,240 --> 00:27:08,440
they would say it that way, but
you're super Christian.
548
00:27:08,640 --> 00:27:11,640
They're speaking in tongues.
They're they're in the spirit in
549
00:27:11,640 --> 00:27:14,040
a different way than someone who
is saved is.
550
00:27:14,040 --> 00:27:15,880
There's this delineation in some
capacity.
551
00:27:16,120 --> 00:27:18,640
Yep, Yep.
And this is what I had
552
00:27:18,640 --> 00:27:22,280
referenced.
You know, the Pastor Stelling I
553
00:27:22,280 --> 00:27:25,720
never met the met the man, but
Jack did and what and said that
554
00:27:27,040 --> 00:27:29,040
pastor stunning related to him
when he was young.
555
00:27:29,040 --> 00:27:32,880
He was, you know, with, you
know, he was getting kind of
556
00:27:32,880 --> 00:27:35,040
hyped up when all this was
hitting the scenes when your
557
00:27:35,040 --> 00:27:38,400
Pentecostalism was and he's
like, I went to my apartment and
558
00:27:38,400 --> 00:27:41,520
like prayed and fasted for three
days for baptism spirit.
559
00:27:41,920 --> 00:27:44,920
And then he said I experienced
something that was not the
560
00:27:44,920 --> 00:27:47,400
spirit of the Holy Spirit and
not and he's like, I was trying
561
00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:50,160
to open myself up and and he's
like, so I never went that way
562
00:27:50,160 --> 00:27:51,680
again.
Again, anecdotal.
563
00:27:51,880 --> 00:27:53,160
Yep.
We wouldn't want to base
564
00:27:53,160 --> 00:27:55,120
anything off that.
But I know that there have been
565
00:27:55,120 --> 00:28:00,560
good people who have had, you
know, made bad experiences with
566
00:28:00,560 --> 00:28:04,280
this.
No, that that that's a good word
567
00:28:04,280 --> 00:28:06,360
of caution.
And so if you're kind of going
568
00:28:06,360 --> 00:28:09,000
through these areas where in
Scripture where the baptism
569
00:28:09,240 --> 00:28:11,880
spirit have mentioned it's
affiliated associated with John
570
00:28:11,880 --> 00:28:15,200
the Baptist four times also we
have 4 gospels.
571
00:28:15,200 --> 00:28:18,520
So so so maybe.
It's one event that's getting
572
00:28:18,520 --> 00:28:22,320
recorded four times.
One times mentioned in reference
573
00:28:22,320 --> 00:28:26,520
to Christ, which is also kind of
closely such which on the
574
00:28:26,520 --> 00:28:28,840
Baptist deal.
So so some of these things are
575
00:28:28,840 --> 00:28:33,480
are you know it it kind of even
reduces in in some way mentioned
576
00:28:33,720 --> 00:28:36,320
by Peter once and one one in
Paul and this is where Joel
577
00:28:36,480 --> 00:28:38,320
spends some time.
I think I think it's a good
578
00:28:38,320 --> 00:28:43,120
place to at least read and this
is First Corinthians chapter 12,
579
00:28:44,080 --> 00:28:47,800
this famous passage about gifts.
And we're going to 0 when
580
00:28:47,800 --> 00:28:50,640
Michael will read for us verses
12 and 13.
581
00:28:51,000 --> 00:28:55,120
Yeah, it says, For even as the
body is 1 and yet has many
582
00:28:55,120 --> 00:28:59,080
members, and all the members of
the body, though they are many,
583
00:28:59,480 --> 00:29:04,640
are one body, so also is Christ.
For by 1 Spirit, we were
584
00:29:04,640 --> 00:29:11,680
baptized into one body, whether
Jews or Greeks, whether slaves
585
00:29:11,680 --> 00:29:15,960
or free, and we were all made to
drink of 1 spirit.
586
00:29:15,960 --> 00:29:20,280
So really this idea that through
the Spirit we were baptized, we
587
00:29:20,280 --> 00:29:24,920
were immersed, we were grafted
into this body of Christ that
588
00:29:24,920 --> 00:29:29,800
Paul talks about many members,
different gifts 1 spirit over
589
00:29:29,800 --> 00:29:31,600
and over again.
You know, you're here talk, talk
590
00:29:31,600 --> 00:29:35,080
about the bride of Christ, the
body of Christ, the church, his
591
00:29:35,080 --> 00:29:39,400
body.
So it seems, at least Paul's
592
00:29:39,400 --> 00:29:42,880
emphasis here is that we through
the Spirit, through
593
00:29:42,880 --> 00:29:46,960
regeneration, we are pushed into
the body of Christ.
594
00:29:47,160 --> 00:29:53,640
Yeah, we're all baptized into
one body by the Spirit, which I
595
00:29:53,640 --> 00:29:55,360
don't know, I I haven't looked
at what they would say about
596
00:29:55,360 --> 00:29:58,640
this passage, but I'm sure they
wouldn't say only like the Super
597
00:29:58,640 --> 00:30:00,480
Christians are part of the body
of Christ too.
598
00:30:00,480 --> 00:30:02,080
So there's, there's something
they they need but that.
599
00:30:02,320 --> 00:30:05,120
But I think that's a real thing
they should wrestle with a
600
00:30:05,120 --> 00:30:09,760
little bit because I think, I
think it's it's pretty clear
601
00:30:09,760 --> 00:30:13,040
that the the spirits involved in
regeneration in this way that we
602
00:30:13,040 --> 00:30:16,320
would say is the baptism of the
spirits.
603
00:30:17,960 --> 00:30:20,640
That brings us to John Johnny
Mack.
604
00:30:20,640 --> 00:30:22,640
Johnny Mack.
Strange Fire.
605
00:30:22,640 --> 00:30:27,240
Not, not a fan of the old
charismatic label, right, right.
606
00:30:27,320 --> 00:30:29,480
And, and and I think he's coming
from a, from a good place where
607
00:30:29,480 --> 00:30:31,520
he's really looking at the
abuses.
608
00:30:32,040 --> 00:30:34,960
And I don't think, I think he
would say, hey, Wayne Grudem,
609
00:30:35,480 --> 00:30:36,960
hey, John Piper, I think you're
wrong.
610
00:30:36,960 --> 00:30:38,920
But I think he would recognize.
I don't think.
611
00:30:38,920 --> 00:30:42,440
There's a difference between
them and the you know, the name
612
00:30:42,440 --> 00:30:47,280
it claim it, televangelists who
are abusing this type of stuff.
613
00:30:47,320 --> 00:30:50,320
That that's such a good point
'cause it's so it's so easy and
614
00:30:50,320 --> 00:30:53,880
sometimes I sinfully enjoy
ostracizing MacArthur a little
615
00:30:53,880 --> 00:30:56,120
bit because he's like one of the
few guys that's more strict than
616
00:30:56,120 --> 00:30:58,600
me on stuff.
So but but I actually love
617
00:30:58,600 --> 00:31:01,360
MacArthur and it's like, man, if
I need to look up something in
618
00:31:01,360 --> 00:31:03,320
Scripture, it's like, man, I
want to read one of his
619
00:31:03,320 --> 00:31:08,080
commentaries just because he
exegetes the word so well, even
620
00:31:08,080 --> 00:31:09,560
if I don't agree with him on
everything.
621
00:31:09,560 --> 00:31:12,680
He takes scripture seriously.
And so he's really guarding
622
00:31:13,040 --> 00:31:16,400
against totally one side.
Like you mentioned the book
623
00:31:16,400 --> 00:31:17,800
Strange fire had a conference
strength.
624
00:31:17,920 --> 00:31:21,440
Strange fire where he he he also
has some conviction with how he
625
00:31:21,440 --> 00:31:25,160
speaks and he's like all
charismatics are terrible, but
626
00:31:25,280 --> 00:31:28,400
you know, different, different
spectrums and that charismatic
627
00:31:28,400 --> 00:31:33,720
term, I think is so is so loose
it to me it's not really helpful
628
00:31:34,520 --> 00:31:38,720
because it's so broad.
If, if you and I get counted in
629
00:31:38,760 --> 00:31:43,320
as a charismatic, probably it's
not I, I mean, I don't know if I
630
00:31:43,320 --> 00:31:45,120
don't know who's counting or how
they're defining it.
631
00:31:45,160 --> 00:31:47,000
But yeah, it is a it could be a
broad swap.
632
00:31:47,040 --> 00:31:50,760
All, all of these labels are
hard, like even evangelical.
633
00:31:50,760 --> 00:31:52,600
I don't know what that means.
I mean, I know what it means,
634
00:31:52,600 --> 00:31:55,720
but it's like, what's that mean?
Fundamentalist, who knows what
635
00:31:55,720 --> 00:31:56,280
that means?
That's why.
636
00:31:56,280 --> 00:32:01,520
Everyone needs a creed.
That's what so that that that
637
00:32:01,680 --> 00:32:04,800
really is where where we spent
most of the time this morning in
638
00:32:04,800 --> 00:32:07,240
this first lesson on the Holy
Spirit.
639
00:32:07,240 --> 00:32:09,640
I think, you know, as we've been
in Roman, it's good to ask
640
00:32:09,640 --> 00:32:11,720
yourself, you know, what's it
mean to walk in the Spirit?
641
00:32:12,320 --> 00:32:14,760
How you know how we demonstrate
the fruit, fruit of the Spirit?
642
00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:16,720
How's the Spirit working?
You know, do you see it?
643
00:32:16,720 --> 00:32:20,400
I think Pastor Jewel's going to
hit on that a little bit next
644
00:32:20,400 --> 00:32:22,600
week.
But what other thoughts you got
645
00:32:22,600 --> 00:32:24,960
about the Holy Spirit?
I just want to say one thing.
646
00:32:24,960 --> 00:32:29,480
Yeah, it was Saint Patrick's
Day.
647
00:32:30,120 --> 00:32:34,720
Oh, this has.
Write it down and Danny had a
648
00:32:34,720 --> 00:32:40,720
message that had a a Sunday
school on the Trinity and did
649
00:32:40,720 --> 00:32:45,320
not play this Richard and
satire.
650
00:32:46,160 --> 00:32:49,040
You know, Patrick's bad, bad
analogies of the Trinity.
651
00:32:49,720 --> 00:32:53,480
And then I, I, you know, I'm, I,
if there's a one of us who's
652
00:32:53,480 --> 00:32:56,880
teaching that's going to joke a
little more, it's probably me.
653
00:32:56,880 --> 00:33:01,200
I don't, I don't know, that joke
may be like a, a loose term, you
654
00:33:01,200 --> 00:33:02,760
know, make jokes that people
don't laugh at.
655
00:33:03,200 --> 00:33:05,720
And I shows I was like, you know
what, I probably shouldn't show
656
00:33:05,720 --> 00:33:07,000
this video.
I don't, I don't know.
657
00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:10,680
It kind of goes off the rails at
the end with with Voltron and,
658
00:33:10,680 --> 00:33:15,040
you know, righteously puking
green righteously into the, the
659
00:33:15,040 --> 00:33:17,640
the Chicago River.
I was like, I don't know.
660
00:33:17,880 --> 00:33:20,000
So I I won't play it.
I'll just kind of mention it.
661
00:33:20,400 --> 00:33:24,240
Joel.
No, no, no, no, no holds barred
662
00:33:24,240 --> 00:33:26,800
on this.
He plays it yesterday, which I
663
00:33:26,800 --> 00:33:27,440
thought was.
Great.
664
00:33:27,440 --> 00:33:30,120
So great move.
It's funny.
665
00:33:30,160 --> 00:33:34,960
And it it, it exposed people to
the Athanasian Creed in a good
666
00:33:34,960 --> 00:33:36,680
way where people they're not
threatened by it.
667
00:33:36,680 --> 00:33:39,120
It's like, oh, this is great.
Yeah, it's good, So good.
668
00:33:39,160 --> 00:33:41,680
And it really drives him to the
point, right?
669
00:33:41,680 --> 00:33:42,960
Don't mess around with these
analogies.
670
00:33:42,960 --> 00:33:44,720
Right.
The the analogies are bad, yeah.
671
00:33:45,840 --> 00:33:47,120
Not going to work.
Get in trouble.
672
00:33:47,400 --> 00:33:50,840
Well, I look forward to talking
more about the Holy Spirit next
673
00:33:50,840 --> 00:33:52,840
week.
That's our take.
674
00:33:54,320 --> 00:33:55,600
Thanks for listening to Take
Two.
675
00:33:56,200 --> 00:33:58,920
Find us wherever you find
podcasts and on YouTube for
676
00:33:58,920 --> 00:34:00,640
those who want to watch our
video cast.
00:00:00,480 --> 00:00:04,120
Well, last podcast we talked
about what a disaster I think
2
00:00:04,320 --> 00:00:07,360
the disaster is.
My boom stand is is breaking.
3
00:00:07,680 --> 00:00:12,320
Well, well, I went I I don't
want to like Colin went out, but
4
00:00:12,320 --> 00:00:15,280
about twice a podcast Michael
will smack a boom stand.
5
00:00:15,480 --> 00:00:18,000
Actually, it's been better.
There was there was a time I
6
00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:22,520
like hit it every time.
So I tried to you just heard me
7
00:00:22,520 --> 00:00:23,800
clearing my throat.
We were talking about what a
8
00:00:23,800 --> 00:00:26,480
disaster.
Berkeley County is pollen.
9
00:00:26,480 --> 00:00:29,240
It must be crazy high.
So I'm it's bad.
10
00:00:29,240 --> 00:00:31,920
I was sniffing some in the last
podcast that you would have
11
00:00:31,920 --> 00:00:36,400
heard on Tuesday if you're
keeping up and I I probably will
12
00:00:36,400 --> 00:00:38,280
sniff a couple times this
podcast.
13
00:00:38,280 --> 00:00:41,280
I was I was victorious and
holding off a sneeze one time.
14
00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:44,000
You're more than conqueror.
I was more than conqueror.
15
00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:46,040
That's right, man.
And all those things.
16
00:00:46,080 --> 00:00:48,800
I, I, I, I've been having a hard
time, like sleeping at night.
17
00:00:49,960 --> 00:00:51,400
I think I'm like the pollen and
stuff.
18
00:00:51,400 --> 00:00:54,480
I'm a little cranky.
Michael's like evaluating my
19
00:00:54,480 --> 00:00:57,200
wardrobe.
I'm just going to, I want to, I
20
00:00:57,200 --> 00:01:00,520
want to throw float this out to
all the listeners out there.
21
00:01:01,040 --> 00:01:02,880
Is Navy blue that much different
than black?
22
00:01:03,360 --> 00:01:06,320
Basically the same, Michael.
They're completely different
23
00:01:06,320 --> 00:01:08,960
colors.
Well, so I'm the one that has to
24
00:01:08,960 --> 00:01:11,960
produce this and remove this
green screen.
25
00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:16,040
And there there was one.
You can go back and find it
26
00:01:16,040 --> 00:01:19,120
where the green screen's here
because he's wearing a blue
27
00:01:19,120 --> 00:01:20,640
shirt.
But not Navy.
28
00:01:20,760 --> 00:01:23,680
But for some reason, the blue
and the green is enough because,
29
00:01:23,840 --> 00:01:26,280
you know, this green screen,
maybe I should take green skin
30
00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:29,120
off a little bit.
It's not perfectly flat.
31
00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:32,400
So with these little shadows, I
have to kind of increase the
32
00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:35,840
tolerance of the, the video
editing so it can get all of it
33
00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:37,720
away.
And so sometimes, you know, our
34
00:01:37,720 --> 00:01:40,840
boom stands will slightly
disappear because it's trying to
35
00:01:40,840 --> 00:01:43,440
remove that.
My headphones good enough for
36
00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:44,760
you too, Michael the.
Headphones are good.
37
00:01:44,800 --> 00:01:46,800
Yeah, Yeah.
But I will say, I will say to
38
00:01:46,800 --> 00:01:49,160
your credit, you know, I was in
the Navy.
39
00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:53,760
I was in the Navy and you know,
there were things that we would
40
00:01:53,760 --> 00:01:56,400
call Navy blue that were just
straight up black.
41
00:01:56,520 --> 00:01:59,560
Like, no, that's Navy blue.
Like it's literally black.
42
00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:00,840
And they would call it Navy
blue.
43
00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:02,560
So you're like, you need to put
on your Navy Blues.
44
00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:05,760
Now, I was an officer, so I
didn't have that particular
45
00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:07,760
uniform, but yeah, the, the list
of guys did.
46
00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:09,960
And they they their dress Blues
were black.
47
00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:12,040
This is.
Yeah.
48
00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:14,160
Relativism creeping into the
military, huh?
49
00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:16,240
I'm just kidding.
Well, I I think I'm just
50
00:02:16,240 --> 00:02:17,720
kidding.
You have to delay which.
51
00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:21,160
Somewhere drifts over time and
it becomes tradition type of
52
00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:22,960
thing.
Well, I'll tell you on a
53
00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:25,480
positive note to get away from
all this pollen and Navy blue
54
00:02:25,480 --> 00:02:26,760
talk.
And me sniffing again.
55
00:02:26,920 --> 00:02:31,480
And the sniffling I I got a text
not too long ago I want to give
56
00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:33,520
a shout out.
While we were in the middle of
57
00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:34,880
the of the recording, the last
one, right?
58
00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:38,240
Yeah, great, Great time.
I checked my phone right right
59
00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:43,000
there and the the Texas dude.
I've been listening to y'all's
60
00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:46,680
podcast.
Big fan from none other than my
61
00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:49,760
guy Adam Angus.
We go way back.
62
00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:54,480
Sounds like he knows beef to me.
Adam Angus, that's good.
63
00:02:54,480 --> 00:02:58,400
He that, yeah, he from Memphis.
Haven't talked to him in a
64
00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:00,560
little bit but always, always a
good time.
65
00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:03,760
Does he cheer for the Memphis
Tigers or the ASU Indian slash
66
00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:07,840
Red Wolves?
I should I should ask him.
67
00:03:08,200 --> 00:03:12,360
I'm trying to think who his.
For some reason he's like a
68
00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:14,040
Texas Longhorns fan or
something.
69
00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:16,560
I'm Angus.
It goes with the IT goes with
70
00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:18,760
the I.
I might be totally butchering
71
00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:21,000
this, Adam.
You'll have to text me.
72
00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:23,600
I'm like blanking on your
college.
73
00:03:23,800 --> 00:03:25,240
Football.
You could literally text him
74
00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:28,320
right now.
I can text him right now.
75
00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:31,920
While he's texting you, you do
the texting 'cause we need to
76
00:03:31,920 --> 00:03:34,480
know.
Viewers want to know how a a
77
00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:36,600
Memphonian?
Is that what y'all wear?
78
00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:40,120
What's what is it?
I don't even know Memphian.
79
00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:46,000
Memphian became a Longhorns or
you know, probably, probably
80
00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:47,800
raise it back.
LSU Tigers.
81
00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:49,600
You could have really anything
in there.
82
00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:52,000
Yeah, we'll see.
We'll see what he says it.
83
00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:56,280
I think his dad is a Bama fan,
so we'll see.
84
00:03:56,280 --> 00:03:58,440
Yeah, I'm talking.
I'm talking to you, Lee Angus.
85
00:03:59,880 --> 00:04:02,800
I want to, I want to say that's
because there's always like,
86
00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:05,320
trash talking to everyone.
But you know, you know, you know
87
00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:08,600
how those Bama fans are.
Oh, I mean just the worst.
88
00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:10,200
I mean the worst.
Absolute worst.
89
00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:13,680
So while you're looking up that,
you know, just revisit this
90
00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:17,839
banter's all over the place.
It's just, it's just us thinking
91
00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:19,880
out loud.
You asked about chess club
92
00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:22,079
interviews.
Oh yeah, on the last.
93
00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:24,360
You need to interview for chess
club.
94
00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:27,480
Yeah, 'cause last so.
What do you wear to a chess club
95
00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:28,960
interview?
I I I have so many questions.
96
00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:30,640
Wear a school uniform.
That's what you do.
97
00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:33,240
Yeah, 'cause 'cause our school
has uniforms.
98
00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:38,440
But last year, a talented group
of 5th graders, I don't want to
99
00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:41,520
take anything away from them,
but very rambunctious.
100
00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:43,960
And it was just a a pool of
guys.
101
00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:47,600
And it's like, I think even if I
had done interviews with them
102
00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:50,440
last year and kind of had been
able to set the tone instead of
103
00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:53,240
just been saying these are the
guys who are, you know, it was
104
00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:55,800
guys and some gals who are going
to be in chess club like, 'cause
105
00:04:55,800 --> 00:04:58,600
if you feel like, man, there's
something on the line, yeah,
106
00:04:58,840 --> 00:05:01,800
that makes it.
But regardless, they, they were
107
00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:05,200
20 people who were interested.
And I just can't take 20 man.
108
00:05:05,880 --> 00:05:08,800
Cuts to the tournament.
Yeah, the, there's a tournament.
109
00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:14,440
The bus only seats 14 + a
chaperone.
110
00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:16,760
We end up taking two buses cause
it's lower school and middle
111
00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:18,520
school.
One day, sorry, I'm gonna have
112
00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:19,720
to cough here in a second, clear
my throat.
113
00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:24,600
But so they played and I was
evaluating, you know, I played
114
00:05:24,600 --> 00:05:27,800
against them.
Headley beat all of them.
115
00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:28,640
I just, that's right.
I mean.
116
00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:29,920
Hopefully.
I mean, if I'm.
117
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:33,040
Getting beat by a lower school
guy should be Hopefully it's,
118
00:05:33,080 --> 00:05:35,760
you know, someone that's like
studied with Magnus.
119
00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:37,440
This is probably more than what
you want to know.
120
00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:38,280
No, I, I.
More than what?
121
00:05:38,280 --> 00:05:39,960
Than what the listers I want.
I have so many questions.
122
00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:42,200
Is there like an equipment
manager for like the chess team?
123
00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:45,280
Like, you know, like take stats
and like you know.
124
00:05:45,280 --> 00:05:47,960
Yeah.
So you know, very simply I would
125
00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:50,840
say I, I would always, I would
purposely like leave the board
126
00:05:50,840 --> 00:05:52,440
kind of just right.
Hey can you help me set up the
127
00:05:52,440 --> 00:05:55,520
board?
So knowing how the pieces are
128
00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:58,800
set up doesn't make you a good
player but but not knowing how
129
00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:01,040
the piece is set up means you've
not played a lot that.
130
00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:02,440
Knight bishops.
Tricky King.
131
00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:05,200
Queen is, yeah, the, the church
is next to the power.
132
00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:07,480
That's all I tell them.
Yeah, the bishops right next to
133
00:06:07,480 --> 00:06:09,560
the power of the king and queen
in there.
134
00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:13,040
And the Queens, you know, ladies
are fastidious about color.
135
00:06:13,280 --> 00:06:15,080
Queens always go on their own
color, so.
136
00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:17,160
Yeah, I like.
I'll give them those hints and
137
00:06:17,160 --> 00:06:20,720
stuff, but then I, you know, I,
I, I love to watch them and
138
00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:24,680
like, 'cause you know, a player
who's played, you know, I, I
139
00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:28,000
don't know what I am 11112
hundred 1300 somewhere around
140
00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:32,360
there on the fee day.
But you know, the better you
141
00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:33,800
get, you can kind of see in
advance.
142
00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:38,320
And I love like making a move
and then seeing their like,
143
00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:40,480
because some people don't know
and then then they're going,
144
00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:43,800
some of them with their eyes get
big and they're like, and those
145
00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:46,000
are people like, OK, they could
have probably, you know, a
146
00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:48,040
better player would have seen
this coming, but now they
147
00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:50,360
recognized it and now they're
problem solving to get out of
148
00:06:50,360 --> 00:06:51,800
it.
And then, then I'm taking notes
149
00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:54,480
on that person and, and, you
know, putting them up to the
150
00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:55,480
top, 'cause that's what I'm
looking for.
151
00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:58,560
Like how do they respond?
You know, I forked one person
152
00:06:58,560 --> 00:07:02,040
and they were like, I don't
think I have a good move.
153
00:07:03,440 --> 00:07:05,480
And I put one person in
checkmate.
154
00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:07,840
And it took them a while and
they were just studying it,
155
00:07:07,840 --> 00:07:11,400
studying it, studying it.
And he's like, I don't think my
156
00:07:11,400 --> 00:07:13,840
king can move anywhere.
I'm like, you can't, you can't.
157
00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:16,000
You're checking, but you know,
it's good that like I'm
158
00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:19,160
evaluating, you know how
thoughtful and and really
159
00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:22,120
behavior because you know they
there.
160
00:07:22,120 --> 00:07:24,360
Was chess club kids?
You're right, they're always out
161
00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:26,360
of control.
Well, they're.
162
00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:29,680
Just.
So it's good and we had our
163
00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:32,040
first official chess club today
and it was good.
164
00:07:32,600 --> 00:07:36,560
I set the tone early, got them
to be quiet.
165
00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:39,560
Man.
We went over openings 'cause you
166
00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:41,840
know, this is way more than
people want to know.
167
00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:44,240
But I will say one more thing,
then I'll then I'll shut up.
168
00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:46,440
I'm trying to give you time to
get this text back from your
169
00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:50,800
friend, but I know I don't know
what it is about this age group.
170
00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:53,760
They always want to open up with
their A and their H.
171
00:07:53,880 --> 00:07:58,160
Those are your side pawns.
Open those up, get your rooks
172
00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:00,960
out immediately and then try to
start doing stuff with your
173
00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:04,040
rooks.
I'm like, no, don't do that.
174
00:08:04,040 --> 00:08:05,880
And I would always do the London
opening.
175
00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:12,800
So my white Bishop is just lined
up on what would it be like A
176
00:08:15,080 --> 00:08:17,560
6A6 or A5?
I'd have to look at the board.
177
00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:20,840
I'm not Magnus or Hikaru but and
they would bring like 3
178
00:08:20,840 --> 00:08:23,760
different players.
My Bishop just sniped their Rook
179
00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:24,920
away.
I'm like you're gonna, you're
180
00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:26,320
not gonna like this.
Boom.
181
00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:28,640
Boom and never gonna learn.
I like it.
182
00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:32,760
Well, you really stalled a lot
and Adam has not gotten back.
183
00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:36,960
To me.
So sorry to disappoint everyone
184
00:08:36,960 --> 00:08:38,120
out there.
No, everyone's like, what's his
185
00:08:38,120 --> 00:08:41,120
favorite football team?
Maybe, maybe yeah, we'll we'll
186
00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:44,280
mention briefly next podcast or
something just for those trying
187
00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:48,360
to bridge the gap.
But this morning or evening or
188
00:08:48,360 --> 00:08:49,720
afternoon, I don't know, when
you're listening to this
189
00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:53,000
podcast, you're gonna hear a
little bit about the Holy
190
00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:56,480
Spirit.
And man, I'm coaching K through
191
00:08:56,480 --> 00:08:59,160
12 soccer and talk about
rambunctious.
192
00:08:59,560 --> 00:09:04,040
We had a great first practice
today, not as good, a little bit
193
00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:06,120
out there.
So we need a I'm trying to
194
00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:09,120
connect it somehow, Holy Spirit.
You need the Holy Spirit come in
195
00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:12,520
and sanctify those kids some.
Sanctification.
196
00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:15,680
I like it.
So join us as we take it to the
197
00:09:15,680 --> 00:09:24,800
next level from the hearts of
the Low Country in South
198
00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:29,000
Carolina.
It's the Take Two podcast where
199
00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:31,160
we take theology to the next
level.
200
00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:34,960
Well, Michael, if you are
following along, I'm sure you
201
00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:36,200
are.
We're going through this
202
00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:41,480
foundations class at our church,
hitting these pivotal essential
203
00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:45,280
topics, things like bibliology
and theology proper and
204
00:09:45,280 --> 00:09:49,440
Christology and anthropology,
and we find ourself at
205
00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:50,960
pneumatology and all these
fancy.
206
00:09:50,960 --> 00:09:52,880
Words.
It's about your lungs.
207
00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:54,200
It's the study of the lungs,
right?
208
00:09:55,120 --> 00:09:56,440
You would, you could think you
could make that.
209
00:09:56,440 --> 00:09:58,440
That's a good, good connection.
You're.
210
00:09:58,560 --> 00:10:00,160
You're getting good word play
there.
211
00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:01,080
Yeah.
Yeah.
212
00:10:01,240 --> 00:10:05,760
Now that that's good.
But I mean, you really, I think
213
00:10:05,760 --> 00:10:07,880
Pastor Joel said that too.
Like, you know, it could be the
214
00:10:07,880 --> 00:10:11,680
study of wind or breath or or
whatever this context we're
215
00:10:11,680 --> 00:10:15,240
thinking the study of the Holy
Spirits.
216
00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:18,160
When I, when I, when you think
about the etymology, there is in
217
00:10:18,160 --> 00:10:22,440
Scripture some intentional word
play going on with the Holy.
218
00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:24,520
You see your Holy Spirit
associated with wind from time
219
00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:27,760
to time.
Yeah, and one of those is
220
00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:30,800
Nicodemus.
Jack would preach on Nicodemus
221
00:10:30,800 --> 00:10:32,600
and it was always Nick at night.
I don't know if you've.
222
00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:37,880
So what a great title.
But you know he's asking Jesus
223
00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:39,240
questions.
You like that?
224
00:10:39,240 --> 00:10:40,840
I.
Forgot but I've I've heard.
225
00:10:41,160 --> 00:10:43,480
This before, Yeah, he's asking
Jesus these questions and he's
226
00:10:43,480 --> 00:10:46,080
like, you're ruler of Israel and
you don't know these things.
227
00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:49,040
And he makes this word play
about the spirit and the, you
228
00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:52,040
know, the wind blows and you
don't know where where it is,
229
00:10:52,920 --> 00:10:55,640
but you see the effects of it.
So too is the spirit.
230
00:10:55,640 --> 00:10:57,800
And he's kind of, you know,
using that same word and doing
231
00:10:57,800 --> 00:11:00,160
that word play.
And then in Acts 2, Pentecost,
232
00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:02,480
there's this mighty rushing wind
with with the Spirit.
233
00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:05,520
So a little bit, a little bit
behind the scenes with the
234
00:11:05,520 --> 00:11:08,000
etymology, like, you know,
where, where, where is it?
235
00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:12,800
Where do we get this word from?
And Holy Spirit is coming on the
236
00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:17,800
heels of theology proper and
Christology where, you know, we
237
00:11:17,800 --> 00:11:20,640
think of the Trinity.
I don't think it's a common
238
00:11:20,640 --> 00:11:23,040
misconception, but I think
people do mistake the Holy
239
00:11:23,040 --> 00:11:26,880
Spirit for a force or an
impersonal, you know thing
240
00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:29,560
rather than a person.
Yeah, and he is a a.
241
00:11:29,800 --> 00:11:36,160
He is God equal codivine with
the Father, the Son Co eternal.
242
00:11:36,480 --> 00:11:39,800
All the things that are about
the of the nature of the Spirit
243
00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:43,440
that are true of the Father and
the Son are true of the Spirit.
244
00:11:43,440 --> 00:11:46,480
It's really the relationships
they have between each other.
245
00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:50,240
And then some people will call
it the the economic Trinity,
246
00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:54,240
like their roles, like what,
what they've chosen to do in, in
247
00:11:54,400 --> 00:11:56,520
all that they're doing.
So they they take on different
248
00:11:56,520 --> 00:11:58,000
roles and they have different
relationships.
249
00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:02,040
But as far as the nature of the
essence it's got, He's God now.
250
00:12:02,320 --> 00:12:04,640
That that is good.
Pastor Joel mentioned the
251
00:12:04,640 --> 00:12:06,560
Athanasian Creed.
You did.
252
00:12:06,560 --> 00:12:08,040
You did it as well.
And yours, right?
253
00:12:08,040 --> 00:12:10,520
Yeah.
So something that is important,
254
00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:15,000
you know, be familiar with Reed.
That kind of helps give us some
255
00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:17,840
guardrails to stay within.
And I read a lot of it during
256
00:12:17,920 --> 00:12:23,160
when I was on theology proper.
Why would I have read it for
257
00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:24,920
theology proper?
What was I reading it for?
258
00:12:25,280 --> 00:12:28,360
I'm just trying to think back.
I, I don't know if you were, I
259
00:12:28,360 --> 00:12:32,880
feel like all of y'all kind of
talked about the Trinity in some
260
00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:34,760
aspects.
Oh yes, yes, because we did talk
261
00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:38,200
about the Trinity at the end of
theology proper because God in
262
00:12:38,200 --> 00:12:40,200
in his proper, because I wasn't
necessarily talking about the
263
00:12:40,200 --> 00:12:41,840
Father, although we, you know.
But oh, I see.
264
00:12:41,880 --> 00:12:45,760
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, but we and read it and
265
00:12:45,760 --> 00:12:48,200
it's like, how many ways can
they say the same thing a
266
00:12:48,200 --> 00:12:51,520
different way?
But they really want to draw a
267
00:12:51,520 --> 00:12:56,040
tight box around this so that
there can be no confusion on the
268
00:12:56,040 --> 00:12:59,560
Father, Son, the Holy Spirit,
their Trinity, three in one, one
269
00:12:59,560 --> 00:13:02,880
being 3 persons.
Go go read it.
270
00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:03,920
I you know, you can look at
that.
271
00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:05,760
That's right.
It it does draw that box where
272
00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:08,080
you know, if you're inbounds out
of bounds, you can you can
273
00:13:08,080 --> 00:13:10,320
figure figure that.
And I'll say one more thing.
274
00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:13,280
I don't think Pastor Joel
developed this at length, but
275
00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:17,200
it's a good study to just, you
know, write outlook up all the
276
00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:21,000
ways Holy spirits mentioned that
kind of point to his personhood
277
00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:23,480
with his actions.
He can be grieved.
278
00:13:23,480 --> 00:13:27,120
He loves, he speaks, he gives,
you know, he's a counselor and a
279
00:13:27,120 --> 00:13:30,280
comforter and a helper and these
things you would, you know,
280
00:13:30,400 --> 00:13:36,920
attribute to a a person and the
reason going back to the Trinity
281
00:13:36,960 --> 00:13:39,960
specifically, you know, you
would think it's outlined there
282
00:13:39,960 --> 00:13:42,240
pretty clearly curly, but but
people get get this.
283
00:13:42,240 --> 00:13:43,760
Wrong.
There are people who get it
284
00:13:43,760 --> 00:13:47,320
wrong, you know, Mormons get it
wrong.
285
00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:53,400
I talked to a guy I graduated
with and they would say that the
286
00:13:53,400 --> 00:13:56,800
spirit, you know, all, all of us
were spirit children of Father
287
00:13:56,800 --> 00:14:01,200
God and some of those were
better than others.
288
00:14:01,560 --> 00:14:06,960
And Jesus was a spirit child who
got a body and then came back
289
00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:11,280
and, you know, did perfectly did
what Father God wanted.
290
00:14:11,760 --> 00:14:14,240
And the Spirit is also God
because he perfectly does it.
291
00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:20,000
But in their theology, in order
to be purified and really go to
292
00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:22,840
that next level, you have to go
through the process of getting a
293
00:14:22,840 --> 00:14:26,000
body and coming back.
And I asked him, the Spirit
294
00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:29,520
never got a body right?
And he said, no, I'm like, how
295
00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:31,240
does that line up with this
idea?
296
00:14:31,240 --> 00:14:34,160
And I gave him the passage of
the doctrine that in order to
297
00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:37,080
really be the best, you have to
like, how could that?
298
00:14:37,360 --> 00:14:40,920
How could that person be God?
And you know it, They really
299
00:14:40,920 --> 00:14:42,680
are.
Try try theists.
300
00:14:42,960 --> 00:14:44,360
Yeah, when it when it comes
down.
301
00:14:44,480 --> 00:14:47,560
Or more.
Or more 'cause everyone, I mean,
302
00:14:47,560 --> 00:14:49,120
like eventually that's the goal,
right?
303
00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:53,240
Like become, become a God.
So that that's why this kind of
304
00:14:53,240 --> 00:14:55,720
thing is important.
And I would say, you know,
305
00:14:55,720 --> 00:14:58,080
creeds, confessions, these
things, not the end all be all,
306
00:14:58,080 --> 00:15:01,160
but they do give us a good box
to check yourself that way.
307
00:15:01,200 --> 00:15:03,560
So, and I'm not saying they
can't be wrong, you know, but I
308
00:15:03,560 --> 00:15:06,360
think they've been tried and
tested for it for the most part.
309
00:15:06,520 --> 00:15:08,200
It's a good place at least to
compare your note till you're
310
00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:10,040
close.
Are we saying something totally
311
00:15:10,040 --> 00:15:11,440
different than you?
Might want to do some further
312
00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:15,160
reflection in scripture.
Yeah, and, and Scripture does
313
00:15:15,160 --> 00:15:18,840
give support for the the Spirit
being a person and, and the
314
00:15:18,840 --> 00:15:24,240
Spirit being different than the
Father or the Son in the 1st
315
00:15:24,240 --> 00:15:25,360
place.
You'd run into it.
316
00:15:25,360 --> 00:15:28,120
You know, in the beginning, God
created the heavens of earth.
317
00:15:28,120 --> 00:15:29,480
The earth was wooden, without
form.
318
00:15:29,480 --> 00:15:32,080
Dark was on the face of the
deep, and the spirit of was on
319
00:15:32,200 --> 00:15:33,880
of God was on the face of the
water.
320
00:15:33,880 --> 00:15:35,840
Yeah, you don't have to.
You don't have to read very long
321
00:15:35,840 --> 00:15:37,720
before you like Holy Spirit's a
New Testament thing.
322
00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:39,400
It's like, well no, just open
your Bible.
323
00:15:39,400 --> 00:15:40,680
Right.
Yeah, yeah, Open to the very
324
00:15:40,680 --> 00:15:42,080
beginning.
The spirits moved there.
325
00:15:43,320 --> 00:15:47,320
You know, I think Genesis 127
let us make man in our own
326
00:15:47,320 --> 00:15:49,920
image.
You know, if you're following
327
00:15:49,920 --> 00:15:54,720
Hyzer exactly, he's going to say
that's the Elohim, the the
328
00:15:54,720 --> 00:15:57,400
Divine Council.
But there's a lot of people who
329
00:15:57,400 --> 00:16:00,440
say, no, that's the Trinity.
Yeah, I don't have to.
330
00:16:00,440 --> 00:16:01,840
I don't know the way I had to
weigh in on that or.
331
00:16:02,440 --> 00:16:04,360
Or yeah, I don't.
Yeah, that verse doesn't make a
332
00:16:04,360 --> 00:16:06,480
brick.
Like my whole theology's like
333
00:16:06,760 --> 00:16:13,040
change because we see the spirit
active all over the place in the
334
00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:14,200
Old Testament.
I mean, you know, maybe.
335
00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:16,440
It's not super expensive, but
it's like he's, you know,
336
00:16:16,440 --> 00:16:20,880
slaying those people, comes on
Saul, leaves Saul, comes on
337
00:16:20,880 --> 00:16:23,520
David, from what we can tell,
never leaves David.
338
00:16:24,520 --> 00:16:27,680
These these skilled people in
the Tabernacle, it's like, oh, I
339
00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:29,840
don't know their they got, they
got, I should have looked up
340
00:16:29,840 --> 00:16:32,720
their names, but it's like man,
spirits not just coming on, you
341
00:16:32,720 --> 00:16:34,840
know, King David, but some of
these these builders, you know,
342
00:16:34,840 --> 00:16:35,960
you.
Wouldn't have been able to
343
00:16:35,960 --> 00:16:38,080
pronounce those builders names
anyway so.
344
00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:43,360
It's fair, fair points.
And then what what's
345
00:16:43,360 --> 00:16:46,880
interesting, I think this is
subject to a little debate as
346
00:16:46,880 --> 00:16:48,400
well.
In what capacity?
347
00:16:48,400 --> 00:16:51,680
But we look at the New Testament
and the Holy Spirit's much more
348
00:16:51,680 --> 00:16:55,600
explicit, much, much more
defined.
349
00:16:55,600 --> 00:16:59,960
And we see, you know, every
believer much more explicitly
350
00:16:59,960 --> 00:17:01,680
receives the Holy Spirit versus
the Old Testament.
351
00:17:01,680 --> 00:17:04,680
You see, like comes, goes or
it's on this person, meaning it
352
00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:07,760
wasn't at some point.
Yeah, I would say, you know,
353
00:17:08,119 --> 00:17:11,400
probably David was the closest
example of what a New Testament
354
00:17:11,400 --> 00:17:13,640
believer might, what we might
experience.
355
00:17:13,640 --> 00:17:15,960
I wonder if his experience was
different than our experience of
356
00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:17,599
the believer.
We we just don't have those
357
00:17:17,599 --> 00:17:21,040
types of details.
But I mean this part of the new
358
00:17:21,040 --> 00:17:24,400
covenant, I mean that that the
Holy Spirit is given in a new
359
00:17:24,400 --> 00:17:31,640
way, you know, in the upper
upper room discourse, you know,
360
00:17:31,640 --> 00:17:34,200
he says, you know, I got to go
away so the helper can come to
361
00:17:34,200 --> 00:17:36,520
you and.
That's a good thing too, right?
362
00:17:36,640 --> 00:17:39,720
Like it's like I'm going away.
But this is good 'cause you will
363
00:17:39,720 --> 00:17:42,600
get get the Holy Spirit.
Pastor Jill, he took some time
364
00:17:42,600 --> 00:17:47,200
to develop this passage in
Second Corinthians chapter 3
365
00:17:47,200 --> 00:17:48,960
that talks about what you're
talking about, Old Covenant, new
366
00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:51,440
Covenant, if you want to lay it
down for us.
367
00:17:51,880 --> 00:17:56,440
Yeah, so it might chapter 3 and
2nd Corinthians, not too long,
368
00:17:56,440 --> 00:17:58,480
but it's probably too long for
us to read all of it.
369
00:17:58,800 --> 00:18:01,800
But you should go read it.
But I'll read 7 through 11, then
370
00:18:01,800 --> 00:18:03,680
I'll end with 18.
So 7 says.
371
00:18:03,680 --> 00:18:07,080
But if the ministry of death and
letters engraved on stones is
372
00:18:07,080 --> 00:18:10,880
talking about the the old
covenant came with glory, so
373
00:18:10,880 --> 00:18:13,880
that the sons of Israel could
not look intently at the face of
374
00:18:13,880 --> 00:18:18,240
Moses because of the glory of
his face fading as it was, how
375
00:18:18,240 --> 00:18:22,280
will the ministry of the Spirit
fell to be even more with glory?
376
00:18:22,600 --> 00:18:25,240
For if the ministry of
condemnation has glory, much
377
00:18:25,240 --> 00:18:28,200
more does the ministry of
righteousness abound in glory.
378
00:18:28,440 --> 00:18:32,200
For indeed, what had glory in
this case has no glory because
379
00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:36,960
of the glory that surpasses it.
For if that which fades away was
380
00:18:36,960 --> 00:18:41,320
the glory, much more that which
remains is in glory.
381
00:18:41,640 --> 00:18:44,040
And he goes on talking about our
hope, you know, you know,
382
00:18:44,920 --> 00:18:47,200
talking about the Old Testament
and the Old Covenant and the
383
00:18:47,200 --> 00:18:51,680
veil being torn in two.
He ends in verse 18, it says,
384
00:18:51,680 --> 00:18:56,440
but we all with unveiled face,
beholding as in a mirror the
385
00:18:56,440 --> 00:19:00,240
glory of the Lord are being
transformed into the same image
386
00:19:00,520 --> 00:19:05,840
from glory to glory, just as
from the Lord, the Spirit.
387
00:19:05,840 --> 00:19:07,680
So it ends with his emphasis on
the Spirit.
388
00:19:07,840 --> 00:19:10,560
Yeah, that that is so good.
And it what I think is
389
00:19:10,560 --> 00:19:13,720
noteworthy about the passage is
that old covenant had some
390
00:19:13,720 --> 00:19:15,440
glory.
Like like it's not you just
391
00:19:15,440 --> 00:19:16,880
don't push it.
And I think we've been seeing
392
00:19:16,880 --> 00:19:21,760
that in Romans as well and the
role the Spirit plays in that.
393
00:19:21,760 --> 00:19:26,520
We'll see the same kind of idea
in Ezekiel 36, the little
394
00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:30,200
heading and the ESP for this
whole section, which just like
395
00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:32,160
Second Corinthians 3, can't read
the whole thing.
396
00:19:32,480 --> 00:19:34,080
It it's a lot.
You should read the whole thing.
397
00:19:34,600 --> 00:19:37,680
It's titled I will put my Spirit
within you.
398
00:19:37,680 --> 00:19:42,240
And starting in verse 25,
Ezekiel writes, I will sprinkle
399
00:19:42,240 --> 00:19:45,000
clean water on you and you shall
be clean from all your
400
00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:46,840
uncleanness and from all your
idols.
401
00:19:46,840 --> 00:19:49,680
I will cleanse you and I will
give you a new hearts and a new
402
00:19:49,680 --> 00:19:53,200
spirit I will put within you.
And I will remove the heart of
403
00:19:53,200 --> 00:19:55,640
stone from your flesh and give
you a heart of flesh.
404
00:19:55,640 --> 00:19:58,920
And I will put my spirit within
you and cause you to walk in my
405
00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:02,080
statutes and be careful to obey
my rules.
406
00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:05,000
So we see the spirit that that
that's one of distinguishing
407
00:20:05,120 --> 00:20:07,920
features of the new covenant,
that you'll have this new heart.
408
00:20:08,360 --> 00:20:11,360
And that that comes along with
the Holy Spirit and his work.
409
00:20:11,920 --> 00:20:13,760
Yeah.
And and so all throughout the
410
00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:17,600
covenants, you see this kind of
future looking forward to the
411
00:20:17,600 --> 00:20:21,520
new covenant, you know, talks
about, you know, Abraham, I'm
412
00:20:21,520 --> 00:20:23,640
going to make a great nation
through you.
413
00:20:23,640 --> 00:20:25,720
All the nations through you're
going to be blessed.
414
00:20:25,720 --> 00:20:27,680
Talks about David, you're going
to have a son that sits on the
415
00:20:27,680 --> 00:20:30,400
throne forever.
He's going to reign forever in
416
00:20:30,400 --> 00:20:32,600
peace.
And then, you know, we see
417
00:20:32,600 --> 00:20:35,720
Jeremiah 3131, you know, talking
about this new covenant, Ezekiel
418
00:20:35,720 --> 00:20:37,040
36 talking about this new
covenant.
419
00:20:37,440 --> 00:20:41,480
Isaiah talks about, you know,
there's going to be a prophet
420
00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:44,800
who's going to come and he's
going to like make make straight
421
00:20:44,800 --> 00:20:47,920
the path for the Messiah.
And he's going to like bring up
422
00:20:47,920 --> 00:20:49,680
the lowlands, bring down the
Highlands.
423
00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:53,720
Great song.
And Handel's Messiah should go
424
00:20:53,720 --> 00:20:56,600
listen to it.
Get ready for for Christmas.
425
00:20:56,600 --> 00:21:01,280
But John the Baptist is that guy
who's really starting to usher
426
00:21:01,280 --> 00:21:05,360
in that transition.
And it's kind of a already not
427
00:21:05,360 --> 00:21:07,320
yet.
And we're kind of still in some
428
00:21:07,320 --> 00:21:10,280
sense, and it's already not yet.
But John the Baptist is that
429
00:21:10,280 --> 00:21:13,520
prophet that Isaiah talked about
coming on the scene, going to
430
00:21:13,520 --> 00:21:16,640
start proclaiming the Kingdom of
God is at hand.
431
00:21:16,640 --> 00:21:20,680
And then, of course, you know,
Jesus, come, God the Son comes
432
00:21:20,680 --> 00:21:25,440
on the scene and he's going to,
you know, live his life, build a
433
00:21:25,440 --> 00:21:29,880
ministry, fulfill the law, dies
of sacrifice.
434
00:21:30,400 --> 00:21:34,120
And as he's dying, we do it all,
all the, all the time We do the
435
00:21:34,120 --> 00:21:36,760
Lord's Supper.
He's like, you know, says this
436
00:21:36,760 --> 00:21:38,520
is my bread, it's broken for
you.
437
00:21:38,520 --> 00:21:41,360
Take and eat it.
Then he says, this is no, the
438
00:21:41,360 --> 00:21:46,640
cup, this is my blood poured out
for you, a sign of the new
439
00:21:46,640 --> 00:21:47,880
covenant.
And so he's really
440
00:21:47,880 --> 00:21:50,840
instantiating, Oh, I'm, I'm
ushering in the new covenant
441
00:21:50,840 --> 00:21:52,480
that these other prophets have
talked about.
442
00:21:52,760 --> 00:21:55,240
Wow.
And you know, if we keep going
443
00:21:55,240 --> 00:21:59,360
along in this story we read in
the New Testament, we get
444
00:21:59,360 --> 00:22:04,280
Pentecost, Acts chapter 2 and we
see the Spirit poured out in a
445
00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:06,440
pretty remarkable way.
We'll probably talk about a
446
00:22:06,440 --> 00:22:09,680
little later a lot of debate
about, hey, is this prescriptive
447
00:22:09,680 --> 00:22:12,000
for every Christian or this just
descriptive?
448
00:22:12,000 --> 00:22:15,080
Or is it maybe maybe not
necessary.
449
00:22:15,080 --> 00:22:17,480
A lot of a lot of good questions
surrounded.
450
00:22:17,560 --> 00:22:21,040
Fire on your head.
Am I am IA real Christian?
451
00:22:21,040 --> 00:22:23,600
Yeah.
And what is mighty rushing?
452
00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:27,360
When is the the fire and and the
speaking in tongues that just
453
00:22:27,360 --> 00:22:33,080
works in a substantial just
amaze amazing way Happens in
454
00:22:33,080 --> 00:22:37,160
Acts 2 and Joe kind of zooms out
and in light of all these great
455
00:22:37,160 --> 00:22:40,240
passages, we really take it for
granted this new covenant's like
456
00:22:40,680 --> 00:22:43,680
do we really understand the
magnificence and marvelousness
457
00:22:43,680 --> 00:22:46,240
of what we've got?
Yeah, 'cause I I don't know that
458
00:22:46,240 --> 00:22:51,520
your Old Testament believer had
the help to be sanctified in the
459
00:22:51,520 --> 00:22:54,760
same way that we do.
So it's hard to imagine what
460
00:22:54,760 --> 00:22:58,280
that looked like it but we know
it's different and grander and
461
00:22:58,360 --> 00:23:00,720
but this is all we know.
So it's hard to like compare the
462
00:23:00,720 --> 00:23:02,720
two.
I I wonder if there was an Old
463
00:23:02,720 --> 00:23:07,280
Testament believer around the
time of Pentecost who would be
464
00:23:07,280 --> 00:23:11,200
like, oh, this is how it was and
now this is what it was like and
465
00:23:11,320 --> 00:23:12,960
difference.
We need to interview that guy.
466
00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:13,960
Or, Oh yeah, we'll get him on
the pod.
467
00:23:15,320 --> 00:23:17,760
That'd be great.
But we take it for granted.
468
00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:19,160
You know who doesn't take it for
granted?
469
00:23:19,640 --> 00:23:21,520
Pentecostals.
They are leaning.
470
00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:24,680
They're taking a lot of they,
they weren't taking that for
471
00:23:24,680 --> 00:23:26,760
granted, but they're taking a
lot and claiming it.
472
00:23:26,760 --> 00:23:28,200
Yeah, yeah.
They are.
473
00:23:28,600 --> 00:23:29,240
They are.
Yeah.
474
00:23:29,240 --> 00:23:33,040
So I think, I think we would
disagree slightly with some of
475
00:23:33,040 --> 00:23:37,080
their theological stances.
You know, no disrespect, Bradley
476
00:23:37,080 --> 00:23:39,880
and Brandon, hopefully y'all are
still tuning in.
477
00:23:39,880 --> 00:23:44,760
But it's central to to their way
of thinking about church.
478
00:23:44,760 --> 00:23:49,520
They want the Spirit to be there
with them and and they want to
479
00:23:49,520 --> 00:23:54,680
live in the Spirit and have the
spirit manifest in in, in good
480
00:23:54,680 --> 00:23:57,160
works and perhaps miraculous
things.
481
00:23:58,400 --> 00:24:01,560
Joel threw out a bunch of stats.
I'm going to butcher the history
482
00:24:01,560 --> 00:24:05,080
so I won't won't get into it.
But his point was Pentecostals
483
00:24:05,080 --> 00:24:08,720
it it's relatively new, kind of
started the turn of the after
484
00:24:08,720 --> 00:24:12,400
the 1900s, nineteen 01 started
gaining some steam.
485
00:24:12,680 --> 00:24:15,400
And, and really, if you look
across across the world, it's
486
00:24:15,400 --> 00:24:19,080
just growing rapidly, you know,
in places like Africa and, you
487
00:24:19,080 --> 00:24:23,880
know, South America and you
really see this movement growing
488
00:24:23,880 --> 00:24:27,480
in a, in a real remarkable way
where it resonates with people
489
00:24:27,480 --> 00:24:30,080
and, and some level, and maybe
some of that's tied up to some
490
00:24:30,080 --> 00:24:33,360
of the prosperity stuff a little
bit, maybe probably a lot of
491
00:24:33,360 --> 00:24:36,640
it's not it's, it's, it's really
a broad term, especially
492
00:24:37,160 --> 00:24:40,280
charismatic is much more broad
than Pentecostal, where I don't
493
00:24:40,280 --> 00:24:42,240
really know what it means if
Benny Hinn and John Piper are
494
00:24:42,240 --> 00:24:44,280
the same.
I don't know that means
495
00:24:44,280 --> 00:24:45,880
everyone.
So I understand why these.
496
00:24:45,880 --> 00:24:48,720
Numbers can be so large.
Yeah, there's a lot of people.
497
00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:52,080
I mean, in some sense that we,
you know, we would say, I don't,
498
00:24:52,280 --> 00:24:54,080
it'd be hard to classify us as
charismatic.
499
00:24:54,080 --> 00:24:57,880
But we are not closed to the
possibility that someone could
500
00:24:57,880 --> 00:24:59,960
speak in tongues.
We're not close the possibility
501
00:24:59,960 --> 00:25:01,600
that God could use someone to
heal.
502
00:25:01,600 --> 00:25:04,640
So someone may say, oh, you 2,
you're charismatic.
503
00:25:04,640 --> 00:25:06,640
No, I yeah, that's your
definition, I think.
504
00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:09,560
I think MacArthur's by himself
over there in California.
505
00:25:09,560 --> 00:25:11,520
I'm just kidding.
There's a lot with him, but
506
00:25:11,520 --> 00:25:13,960
that, I mean, never really that
actually makes sense with some
507
00:25:13,960 --> 00:25:16,000
of these stats that I'm seeing
like if that, if that's the
508
00:25:16,040 --> 00:25:20,160
you're open to this possibility.
So let's talk a little more
509
00:25:20,840 --> 00:25:25,000
about Acts 2.
This gift of the Holy Spirit may
510
00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:27,360
be tied in with it.
Talk about baptism in the
511
00:25:27,360 --> 00:25:29,120
Spirit.
What's this mean?
512
00:25:29,120 --> 00:25:30,640
We hear it a lot.
It is.
513
00:25:30,640 --> 00:25:33,320
Is it associated with I feel
like I'm in the Spirit?
514
00:25:33,320 --> 00:25:35,520
Is it manifested by I speak in
tongues?
515
00:25:35,520 --> 00:25:37,040
So I've had the baptism in the
Spirit.
516
00:25:37,400 --> 00:25:39,480
Is it a term that applies to all
believers?
517
00:25:39,480 --> 00:25:43,080
I think there's a lot of
confusion around that term
518
00:25:43,080 --> 00:25:48,640
specifically and what it means.
Yeah, and we, we did a whole
519
00:25:48,640 --> 00:25:52,360
podcast on baptism.
So go back and listen 'cause we,
520
00:25:52,400 --> 00:25:54,800
we'll, we'll hit some of this.
And I was just thinking, should
521
00:25:54,800 --> 00:25:57,520
I try to pull up some of those
notes 'cause I kind of detailed
522
00:25:57,520 --> 00:25:58,800
a lot of them.
But, you know, I don't have
523
00:25:58,800 --> 00:26:00,560
instant recall, especially on
today while I'm fighting
524
00:26:00,560 --> 00:26:05,960
allergies.
But yeah, so we we do see these
525
00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:07,920
ideas of being baptized in the
Spirit.
526
00:26:08,400 --> 00:26:10,640
There's, you know, we talked
about being baptized and being
527
00:26:10,640 --> 00:26:13,560
immersed in and changed by.
Pickling.
528
00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:15,920
Pickling Dying.
Dying.
529
00:26:16,440 --> 00:26:19,000
Dying cloth.
So hopefully, you know,
530
00:26:19,280 --> 00:26:21,080
hopefully we're all being
baptized in spirit.
531
00:26:21,080 --> 00:26:23,680
I want to be changed by the
Spirit.
532
00:26:23,680 --> 00:26:27,280
I want to be changed by Christ,
you know, And so, yeah.
533
00:26:27,280 --> 00:26:29,160
So I don't know if you wanted to
go through some of the the
534
00:26:29,160 --> 00:26:30,800
different examples that that he
gave.
535
00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:34,920
Yeah, so and what's interesting
about this term, 'cause I think
536
00:26:34,920 --> 00:26:39,000
it's thrown around a lot, It's
not like it's on every page of
537
00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:40,480
Scripture.
It's like it's never mentioned.
538
00:26:41,000 --> 00:26:44,600
But this phrase, baptism in the
Spirit or a close rendering of
539
00:26:44,600 --> 00:26:47,680
that phrase, it's really only
mentioned 7 times in all of the
540
00:26:47,680 --> 00:26:50,200
New Testament.
So small sample size, you
541
00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:52,480
probably need to be a little bit
careful.
542
00:26:53,520 --> 00:26:55,600
And I think the question is if
you're talking to, you know,
543
00:26:55,600 --> 00:26:58,560
someone that's full-fledged
Pentecostal. 2nd Baptism.
544
00:26:59,360 --> 00:27:00,880
Yeah, yeah.
They would basically say, yeah,
545
00:27:01,280 --> 00:27:04,080
this is like a special class of
Christian that you got, you
546
00:27:04,080 --> 00:27:06,240
know, your average Christian
then like you're super out of,
547
00:27:06,240 --> 00:27:08,440
they would say it that way, but
you're super Christian.
548
00:27:08,640 --> 00:27:11,640
They're speaking in tongues.
They're they're in the spirit in
549
00:27:11,640 --> 00:27:14,040
a different way than someone who
is saved is.
550
00:27:14,040 --> 00:27:15,880
There's this delineation in some
capacity.
551
00:27:16,120 --> 00:27:18,640
Yep, Yep.
And this is what I had
552
00:27:18,640 --> 00:27:22,280
referenced.
You know, the Pastor Stelling I
553
00:27:22,280 --> 00:27:25,720
never met the met the man, but
Jack did and what and said that
554
00:27:27,040 --> 00:27:29,040
pastor stunning related to him
when he was young.
555
00:27:29,040 --> 00:27:32,880
He was, you know, with, you
know, he was getting kind of
556
00:27:32,880 --> 00:27:35,040
hyped up when all this was
hitting the scenes when your
557
00:27:35,040 --> 00:27:38,400
Pentecostalism was and he's
like, I went to my apartment and
558
00:27:38,400 --> 00:27:41,520
like prayed and fasted for three
days for baptism spirit.
559
00:27:41,920 --> 00:27:44,920
And then he said I experienced
something that was not the
560
00:27:44,920 --> 00:27:47,400
spirit of the Holy Spirit and
not and he's like, I was trying
561
00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:50,160
to open myself up and and he's
like, so I never went that way
562
00:27:50,160 --> 00:27:51,680
again.
Again, anecdotal.
563
00:27:51,880 --> 00:27:53,160
Yep.
We wouldn't want to base
564
00:27:53,160 --> 00:27:55,120
anything off that.
But I know that there have been
565
00:27:55,120 --> 00:28:00,560
good people who have had, you
know, made bad experiences with
566
00:28:00,560 --> 00:28:04,280
this.
No, that that that's a good word
567
00:28:04,280 --> 00:28:06,360
of caution.
And so if you're kind of going
568
00:28:06,360 --> 00:28:09,000
through these areas where in
Scripture where the baptism
569
00:28:09,240 --> 00:28:11,880
spirit have mentioned it's
affiliated associated with John
570
00:28:11,880 --> 00:28:15,200
the Baptist four times also we
have 4 gospels.
571
00:28:15,200 --> 00:28:18,520
So so so maybe.
It's one event that's getting
572
00:28:18,520 --> 00:28:22,320
recorded four times.
One times mentioned in reference
573
00:28:22,320 --> 00:28:26,520
to Christ, which is also kind of
closely such which on the
574
00:28:26,520 --> 00:28:28,840
Baptist deal.
So so some of these things are
575
00:28:28,840 --> 00:28:33,480
are you know it it kind of even
reduces in in some way mentioned
576
00:28:33,720 --> 00:28:36,320
by Peter once and one one in
Paul and this is where Joel
577
00:28:36,480 --> 00:28:38,320
spends some time.
I think I think it's a good
578
00:28:38,320 --> 00:28:43,120
place to at least read and this
is First Corinthians chapter 12,
579
00:28:44,080 --> 00:28:47,800
this famous passage about gifts.
And we're going to 0 when
580
00:28:47,800 --> 00:28:50,640
Michael will read for us verses
12 and 13.
581
00:28:51,000 --> 00:28:55,120
Yeah, it says, For even as the
body is 1 and yet has many
582
00:28:55,120 --> 00:28:59,080
members, and all the members of
the body, though they are many,
583
00:28:59,480 --> 00:29:04,640
are one body, so also is Christ.
For by 1 Spirit, we were
584
00:29:04,640 --> 00:29:11,680
baptized into one body, whether
Jews or Greeks, whether slaves
585
00:29:11,680 --> 00:29:15,960
or free, and we were all made to
drink of 1 spirit.
586
00:29:15,960 --> 00:29:20,280
So really this idea that through
the Spirit we were baptized, we
587
00:29:20,280 --> 00:29:24,920
were immersed, we were grafted
into this body of Christ that
588
00:29:24,920 --> 00:29:29,800
Paul talks about many members,
different gifts 1 spirit over
589
00:29:29,800 --> 00:29:31,600
and over again.
You know, you're here talk, talk
590
00:29:31,600 --> 00:29:35,080
about the bride of Christ, the
body of Christ, the church, his
591
00:29:35,080 --> 00:29:39,400
body.
So it seems, at least Paul's
592
00:29:39,400 --> 00:29:42,880
emphasis here is that we through
the Spirit, through
593
00:29:42,880 --> 00:29:46,960
regeneration, we are pushed into
the body of Christ.
594
00:29:47,160 --> 00:29:53,640
Yeah, we're all baptized into
one body by the Spirit, which I
595
00:29:53,640 --> 00:29:55,360
don't know, I I haven't looked
at what they would say about
596
00:29:55,360 --> 00:29:58,640
this passage, but I'm sure they
wouldn't say only like the Super
597
00:29:58,640 --> 00:30:00,480
Christians are part of the body
of Christ too.
598
00:30:00,480 --> 00:30:02,080
So there's, there's something
they they need but that.
599
00:30:02,320 --> 00:30:05,120
But I think that's a real thing
they should wrestle with a
600
00:30:05,120 --> 00:30:09,760
little bit because I think, I
think it's it's pretty clear
601
00:30:09,760 --> 00:30:13,040
that the the spirits involved in
regeneration in this way that we
602
00:30:13,040 --> 00:30:16,320
would say is the baptism of the
spirits.
603
00:30:17,960 --> 00:30:20,640
That brings us to John Johnny
Mack.
604
00:30:20,640 --> 00:30:22,640
Johnny Mack.
Strange Fire.
605
00:30:22,640 --> 00:30:27,240
Not, not a fan of the old
charismatic label, right, right.
606
00:30:27,320 --> 00:30:29,480
And, and and I think he's coming
from a, from a good place where
607
00:30:29,480 --> 00:30:31,520
he's really looking at the
abuses.
608
00:30:32,040 --> 00:30:34,960
And I don't think, I think he
would say, hey, Wayne Grudem,
609
00:30:35,480 --> 00:30:36,960
hey, John Piper, I think you're
wrong.
610
00:30:36,960 --> 00:30:38,920
But I think he would recognize.
I don't think.
611
00:30:38,920 --> 00:30:42,440
There's a difference between
them and the you know, the name
612
00:30:42,440 --> 00:30:47,280
it claim it, televangelists who
are abusing this type of stuff.
613
00:30:47,320 --> 00:30:50,320
That that's such a good point
'cause it's so it's so easy and
614
00:30:50,320 --> 00:30:53,880
sometimes I sinfully enjoy
ostracizing MacArthur a little
615
00:30:53,880 --> 00:30:56,120
bit because he's like one of the
few guys that's more strict than
616
00:30:56,120 --> 00:30:58,600
me on stuff.
So but but I actually love
617
00:30:58,600 --> 00:31:01,360
MacArthur and it's like, man, if
I need to look up something in
618
00:31:01,360 --> 00:31:03,320
Scripture, it's like, man, I
want to read one of his
619
00:31:03,320 --> 00:31:08,080
commentaries just because he
exegetes the word so well, even
620
00:31:08,080 --> 00:31:09,560
if I don't agree with him on
everything.
621
00:31:09,560 --> 00:31:12,680
He takes scripture seriously.
And so he's really guarding
622
00:31:13,040 --> 00:31:16,400
against totally one side.
Like you mentioned the book
623
00:31:16,400 --> 00:31:17,800
Strange fire had a conference
strength.
624
00:31:17,920 --> 00:31:21,440
Strange fire where he he he also
has some conviction with how he
625
00:31:21,440 --> 00:31:25,160
speaks and he's like all
charismatics are terrible, but
626
00:31:25,280 --> 00:31:28,400
you know, different, different
spectrums and that charismatic
627
00:31:28,400 --> 00:31:33,720
term, I think is so is so loose
it to me it's not really helpful
628
00:31:34,520 --> 00:31:38,720
because it's so broad.
If, if you and I get counted in
629
00:31:38,760 --> 00:31:43,320
as a charismatic, probably it's
not I, I mean, I don't know if I
630
00:31:43,320 --> 00:31:45,120
don't know who's counting or how
they're defining it.
631
00:31:45,160 --> 00:31:47,000
But yeah, it is a it could be a
broad swap.
632
00:31:47,040 --> 00:31:50,760
All, all of these labels are
hard, like even evangelical.
633
00:31:50,760 --> 00:31:52,600
I don't know what that means.
I mean, I know what it means,
634
00:31:52,600 --> 00:31:55,720
but it's like, what's that mean?
Fundamentalist, who knows what
635
00:31:55,720 --> 00:31:56,280
that means?
That's why.
636
00:31:56,280 --> 00:32:01,520
Everyone needs a creed.
That's what so that that that
637
00:32:01,680 --> 00:32:04,800
really is where where we spent
most of the time this morning in
638
00:32:04,800 --> 00:32:07,240
this first lesson on the Holy
Spirit.
639
00:32:07,240 --> 00:32:09,640
I think, you know, as we've been
in Roman, it's good to ask
640
00:32:09,640 --> 00:32:11,720
yourself, you know, what's it
mean to walk in the Spirit?
641
00:32:12,320 --> 00:32:14,760
How you know how we demonstrate
the fruit, fruit of the Spirit?
642
00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:16,720
How's the Spirit working?
You know, do you see it?
643
00:32:16,720 --> 00:32:20,400
I think Pastor Jewel's going to
hit on that a little bit next
644
00:32:20,400 --> 00:32:22,600
week.
But what other thoughts you got
645
00:32:22,600 --> 00:32:24,960
about the Holy Spirit?
I just want to say one thing.
646
00:32:24,960 --> 00:32:29,480
Yeah, it was Saint Patrick's
Day.
647
00:32:30,120 --> 00:32:34,720
Oh, this has.
Write it down and Danny had a
648
00:32:34,720 --> 00:32:40,720
message that had a a Sunday
school on the Trinity and did
649
00:32:40,720 --> 00:32:45,320
not play this Richard and
satire.
650
00:32:46,160 --> 00:32:49,040
You know, Patrick's bad, bad
analogies of the Trinity.
651
00:32:49,720 --> 00:32:53,480
And then I, I, you know, I'm, I,
if there's a one of us who's
652
00:32:53,480 --> 00:32:56,880
teaching that's going to joke a
little more, it's probably me.
653
00:32:56,880 --> 00:33:01,200
I don't, I don't know, that joke
may be like a, a loose term, you
654
00:33:01,200 --> 00:33:02,760
know, make jokes that people
don't laugh at.
655
00:33:03,200 --> 00:33:05,720
And I shows I was like, you know
what, I probably shouldn't show
656
00:33:05,720 --> 00:33:07,000
this video.
I don't, I don't know.
657
00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:10,680
It kind of goes off the rails at
the end with with Voltron and,
658
00:33:10,680 --> 00:33:15,040
you know, righteously puking
green righteously into the, the
659
00:33:15,040 --> 00:33:17,640
the Chicago River.
I was like, I don't know.
660
00:33:17,880 --> 00:33:20,000
So I I won't play it.
I'll just kind of mention it.
661
00:33:20,400 --> 00:33:24,240
Joel.
No, no, no, no, no holds barred
662
00:33:24,240 --> 00:33:26,800
on this.
He plays it yesterday, which I
663
00:33:26,800 --> 00:33:27,440
thought was.
Great.
664
00:33:27,440 --> 00:33:30,120
So great move.
It's funny.
665
00:33:30,160 --> 00:33:34,960
And it it, it exposed people to
the Athanasian Creed in a good
666
00:33:34,960 --> 00:33:36,680
way where people they're not
threatened by it.
667
00:33:36,680 --> 00:33:39,120
It's like, oh, this is great.
Yeah, it's good, So good.
668
00:33:39,160 --> 00:33:41,680
And it really drives him to the
point, right?
669
00:33:41,680 --> 00:33:42,960
Don't mess around with these
analogies.
670
00:33:42,960 --> 00:33:44,720
Right.
The the analogies are bad, yeah.
671
00:33:45,840 --> 00:33:47,120
Not going to work.
Get in trouble.
672
00:33:47,400 --> 00:33:50,840
Well, I look forward to talking
more about the Holy Spirit next
673
00:33:50,840 --> 00:33:52,840
week.
That's our take.
