00:00:00.000 All right, listen, guys, I get it.
00:00:01.900 Many of you are unable to financially support this ministry because you're spending your
00:00:05.900 cash and your lives on raising young children in the fear and admonition of the Lord.
00:00:10.740 Praise God for you and that endeavor.
00:00:13.860 However, algorithms are a thing.
00:00:16.380 Shadow banning, sadly, is a thing.
00:00:19.000 And one major way that you can help to expand the reach and effectiveness of this ministry
00:00:24.160 that doesn't cost you a dime is by spending just a few moments leaving us a five-star review.
00:00:31.320 Also, perhaps even more effective than that, you can share our podcast with a friend.
00:00:36.560 We hope you'll take the time to do so.
00:00:38.480 Thank you so much.
00:00:39.760 God bless.
00:00:42.340 Jesus said, man cannot live on bread alone, but from every word that proceeds from the
00:00:47.040 mouth of God.
00:00:47.980 You're listening to Daily Truth.
00:00:52.360 I've used this illustration before.
00:00:54.160 I'll use it again.
00:00:55.060 If you've ever watched National Geographic,
00:00:57.760 Animal Planet, whatever,
00:01:01.060 which gazelle gets eaten by the lion?
00:01:05.900 The one in the middle of the herd
00:01:07.600 or the one that's on the outside?
00:01:12.400 Satan, what does the Bible say? 0.97
00:01:14.200 Prowls around like a roaring lion. 0.83
00:01:18.060 So Satan prowls around like a roaring lion
00:01:20.240 seeking what?
00:01:21.220 Who he may devour.
00:01:22.620 and who do lions devour the one separated from the herd so to hand someone over to satan is
00:01:31.420 essentially simply to treat someone as an outsider to loose them whatever you loose on earth you're
00:01:39.000 no longer you are a gentile and a tax collector you are no longer in covenant with the church
00:01:45.140 this visible church to remove someone from your midst like the apostle paul commands in first
00:01:52.880 corinthians chapter 5 purge the immoral brother from among you hand him over he's committed a
00:02:02.280 degree of sexual immorality that is unheard of even among the pagans even among the pagans and
00:02:12.100 you are proud the apostle says no rather you should be ashamed hand him over paul says
00:02:21.160 spiritually speaking with apostolic authority i've already removed him now you better follow
00:02:27.560 my judgment and do the same and many biblical commentators and scholars and theologians
00:02:34.900 agree that in paul's second letter to the corinthians second corinthians namely chapter
00:02:40.240 two when he mentions a man who is being overwhelmed by unceasing sorrow that should be welcomed back
00:02:47.820 into fellowship with the Corinthian church that is actually the same man. See the church discipline
00:02:54.140 it not only exists to protect the purity of the church it also exists as a form of tough love to
00:03:01.160 produce repentance in the center. Let me say that again. Church discipline is not only a tool that
00:03:08.160 jesus gives to us to protect the purity of the church from a bad influence but also it protects
00:03:16.640 or rather it it ultimately in the sovereignty of god if he wills it could be used to bring about
00:03:24.500 repentance in the center that that form of tough love might eventually bring them to contrition
00:03:32.060 to not mere worldly sorrow, but godly sorrow
00:03:36.540 that brings about repentance that leads to life.
00:03:43.000 Also, we might add, the fact that there are multiple steps in the process
00:03:47.040 and that there is a jury,
00:03:50.200 that things are being weighed,
00:03:52.400 that testimonies have to be tried and true,
00:03:55.040 that there must be two to three independent lines of testimony,
00:04:00.300 eyewitness testimony,
00:04:01.500 in order for something to be established
00:04:03.600 and then weighed by a larger jury,
00:04:06.020 namely the whole congregation, the church itself.
00:04:08.880 All of this is because Jesus is committed to justice
00:04:13.120 and therefore due process.
00:04:15.920 That's where we get these principles
00:04:18.240 in our law system today.
00:04:19.820 It's being eroded, but we got it from the Bible.
00:04:23.540 Church discipline, how intricate the process is
00:04:27.400 in the Bible, what that says is that
00:04:29.360 Jesus is committed to protecting the church
00:04:31.500 from the sinner and penitent sinner, 0.96
00:04:33.980 but Jesus is also just as committed
00:04:36.460 to protecting the alleged sinner
00:04:39.680 from an abusive church,
00:04:41.940 because that happens too.
00:04:43.600 Can I be frank with you for just a second
00:04:45.280 right here at the end?
00:04:46.940 Look, some of you guys,
00:04:48.120 you're financially supporting this ministry,
00:04:50.260 and from the bottom of my heart,
00:04:51.960 I say thank you.
00:04:53.400 I cannot thank you enough.
00:04:55.980 However, some of you,
00:04:57.360 you just, you can't afford it.
00:04:59.360 In fact, some of you, you shouldn't afford it.
00:05:02.780 Let's be honest. 0.91
00:05:04.040 I mean, we're living in Joe Biden's ridiculous economy. 0.96
00:05:07.600 Our nation and our totalitarian political elites lost their minds over the last three 0.91
00:05:15.240 years due to COVID.
00:05:17.320 We have written checks that we simply cannot cash.
00:05:21.320 It doesn't matter if people change the definition of a recession.
00:05:25.260 We are living in a recession right now, regardless.
00:05:29.360 Some of you are struggling to afford a carton of eggs at the grocery store.
00:05:34.520 You cannot support financially this ministry at this time, nor should you, but you could
00:05:40.900 still help us tremendously.
00:05:42.740 I am asking you, please, if you're willing to do so, take one minute of your time.
00:05:49.100 Leave us a five-star review on your favorite podcast platform, iTunes, Spotify, whatever
00:05:55.240 that might be.
00:05:56.520 This is the way the system works.
00:05:58.240 We want to be innocent as doves, but shrewd as vipers.
00:06:02.780 We need to be strategic.
00:06:04.640 You leave us a five-star review, and our podcast shows up for more people.

00:06:16.380 life gets out there.
00:06:18.460 Help us get it out there.
00:06:20.160 Thanks for tuning in.
