00:00:18.540
And one major way that you can help to expand the reach and effectiveness of this ministry
00:00:44.980
but from every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.
00:00:49.780
what about strange teachings or strange doctrines gill says and strange doctrines
00:00:58.160
may design such as were never taught by god nor are agreeable to christ not to be found in the
00:01:06.880
word of god and which are new and unheard of by the apostles and churches of christ in a nutshell
00:01:14.880
what what gill is getting at and seeking to exegete verse 9 of our text is this the apostle
00:01:20.820
is saying do don't be led astray don't veer to the left don't veer to the right there is one
00:01:27.280
true doctrine of christ and there is continuity from the old testament all the way to the new
00:01:34.180
there is one gospel of god there is one law of god don't be distracted don't be hindered
00:01:43.780
encumbered by all these extracurricular activities there are diverse doctrines and i think what what
00:01:51.980
the apostle was likely getting at with diverse doctrines is saying within judaism there are all
00:01:59.220
these different ceremonial rituals and rites and washings and purifications and sacrifice within
00:02:05.840
the old covenant namely within the category of the ceremonial law of god there is a multitude
00:02:13.140
of diverse doctrines but you have come to believe in christ and that christ is the fulfillment
00:02:20.400
of those ceremonial laws not that god was one way and now he's another no see verse eight right
00:02:29.160
before verse nine jesus is the same yesterday today and forever god did not change but these
00:02:34.820
things have been fulfilled so you don't need to go back to jerusalem you don't need to go back
00:02:40.440
to the temple you don't need to go back to the priestly animal sacrificial system in israel you
00:02:46.840
don't have to go back to all the different hand washings all the different purification rights
00:02:51.720
all the diverse i think that's what the word diverse is getting at in our text in verse 9
00:02:56.740
all the multitudes all the many doctrines of judaism but rather you can stick to the main
00:03:04.620
and the plain the doctrine that is uniform the doctrine that has continuity from the old
00:03:10.220
covenant to the new the doctrine of christ and him crucified that's i think what the apostle
00:03:16.940
is alluding to that's certainly what john gill thinks the apostle is alluding to
00:03:20.940
in using that descriptive term diverse don't be distracted or led astray by diverse teachings
00:03:27.960
can i be frank with you for just a second right here at the end look some of you guys you're
00:03:32.920
financially supporting this ministry and from the bottom of my heart i say thank you i cannot thank
00:03:38.900
you enough. However, some of you, you just, you can't afford it. In fact, some of you, you shouldn't
00:03:46.100
afford it. Let's be honest. I mean, we're living in Joe Biden's ridiculous economy. Our nation
00:03:53.040
and our totalitarian political elites lost their minds over the last three years due to COVID.
00:04:01.800
We have written checks that we simply cannot cash. It doesn't matter if people change the definition
00:04:08.320
of a recession. We are living in a recession right now, regardless. Some of you are struggling
00:04:15.280
