00:00:00 Hey guys, real quick, before we get started, I have a small request.
00:00:03 If you've been blessed by our content and you like this show,
00:00:06 would you take just a brief moment and leave us a five-star review?
00:00:09 This is quite possibly the most effective thing that you can do
00:00:12 to ensure that this content gets out to as many people as possible. Thanks.
00:00:19 Jesus said, man cannot live on bread alone,
00:00:22 but from every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.
00:00:25 You're listening to Daily Truth.
00:00:30 Now, according to verse four, these different doctrines were the product of fruitless speculations
00:00:36 about myths and endless genealogies.
00:00:40 These men portrayed themselves as knowledgeable in order to accumulate a following, but their 0.95
00:00:47 knowledge was nothing more than mere foolishness.
00:00:51 The apostle refers to their teaching as speculation in verse four, but then goes on to say,
00:01:00 that they make confident assertions at the end of verse 7.
00:01:05 It is quite possible, brothers and sisters,
00:01:09 to sound biblical and to speak confidently,
00:01:15 but to actually be dead wrong.
00:01:18 We must exercise caution with those who display incredible confidence
00:01:23 regarding their own extra-biblical speculations,
00:01:27 especially and notice the hypocrisy but it is an epidemic it is uncanny how these two things
00:01:39 always seem to come together two peas in a paw a an unstoppable correlation if you will those
00:01:49 who display incredible confidence regarding their speculations,
00:01:56 that is, those peripheral ideas, those different doctrines,
00:02:02 those truths on the margins, that there is much debate
00:02:06 whether or not they're in fact true at all.
00:02:08 Those who are so confident in their assertions
00:02:11 about peripheral speculative myths and genealogies.
00:02:17 Those very same people almost always seem to be found guilty of regularly condemning confidence in others who are actually addressing matters of clear biblical doctrine.
00:02:35 Have you noticed that?
00:02:37 I've noticed that my whole life.
00:02:40 I've noticed people confident about the Nephilim. 0.70
00:02:44 and then condemning my confidence
00:02:49 when I'm literally just preaching on salvation
00:02:52 by grace through faith in Jesus Christ.
00:02:56 People confident about their far-fetched
00:03:06 speculations about end times and eschatology.
00:03:10 eschatology. But immediately, these same people seem to be the first ones to correct confidence
00:03:18 in others, even when others are confidently preaching primary doctrines.
00:03:26 So somebody's confident about Calvinism, the sovereignty of God in election.
00:03:33 and this person over here is condemning them saying your confidence is arrogance
00:03:41 and then within 30 minutes that person begins to make confident assertions
00:03:47 about the end time which jesus specifically says no one knows the day or the hour
00:03:53 ever experience that it's uncanny it is uncanny the person who makes confident assertions
00:04:03 about truths on the margins,
00:04:06 aka speculations,
00:04:09 is the same person
00:04:10 who is the first to show up
00:04:13 to condemn confidence in others
00:04:16 when they're preaching things
00:04:18 that are biblically sound and clear.
00:04:21 This is a mark of a false teacher
00:04:25 or perhaps an erring brother.
00:04:30 You should have this in your arsenal.
00:04:32 as a measuring tool as a method of discernment so that you might recognize
00:04:38 and not be deceived i always find it hypocritical ironic is the charitable term hypocritical is the
00:04:50 more accurate and truthful term i always find it to be incredibly hypocritical when people 0.62
00:04:57 are with the 11th commandment, here's the irony, confident that Christians shouldn't
00:05:04 be confident. They dogmatically teach against dogmatism. They are certain that a person 0.99
00:05:12 should never be certain. This is the American evangelical church. This is sweetheart Christianity.
00:05:22 and this is the pool that you swim in in the same way that the frog doesn't realize
00:05:30 that the pot is slowly boiling so too we must recognize that we have been indoctrinated
00:05:39 in the culture of american christianity me telling you this you you immediately have no doubt will
00:05:48 have some sense of this inward aversion
00:05:52 to what I'm saying.
00:05:53 That can't be true.
00:05:56 Joel, you must be being harsh.
00:05:59 That doesn't add up.
00:06:03 Why?
00:06:04 Because right now,
00:06:05 I'm trying to tell you about water.
00:06:08 And you're a fish.
00:06:10 What's water?
00:06:12 You've been swimming it your whole life.
00:06:15 You grew up in the church.
00:06:18 You weren't taught in Sunday school
00:06:20 that you should stand outside of abortion clinics
00:06:22 and try to save children from being murdered.
00:06:25 You were taught that you should be nice.
00:06:28 And if you don't have anything nice to say,
00:06:30 don't say anything at all.
00:06:33 And that even though somebody might be doing something
00:06:35 that according to the word of God is atrocious,
00:06:38 your correction of their atrocious actions
00:06:41 is more atrocious than the atrocity
00:06:43 they've committed themselves.
00:06:46 Oh, hi, I didn't see you there.
