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.
00:00:19.000
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. Also,
00:00:31.900
perhaps even more effective than that, you can share our podcast with a friend. We hope you'll
00:00:37.100
take the time to do so. Thank you so much. God bless. Jesus said, man cannot live on bread alone,
00:00:45.140
but from every word that proceeds from the mouth of God. You're listening to Daily Truth.
00:00:49.940
brothers and sisters listen the sons of issachar knew the times
00:00:56.640
it is not enough only to know principles you also need to be a christian with discernment
00:01:05.400
who can say what time it is what time is it a lot of the rhetoric the social justice rhetoric you
00:01:12.780
know my problem with it it's not that social justice doesn't matter my problem with it is
00:01:18.960
it's 50 years too late a lot of the rhetoric that you hear if that was coming out in 1940
00:01:27.240
it would have been good the problem is it's coming out after that it's not an issue so we're saying
0.82
00:01:37.300
oh there's this oppression and blah blah blah blah blah but but then asians have to score higher on
00:01:42.780
their sat to get into college the second whites and then down the list there is literally
00:01:50.380
affirmative action which is racism there is discrimination and different weights and measures
00:01:57.940
the lord another thing he hates false witness he also hates unequal balances unequal weights and
00:02:04.040
measures there are different weights in measures for determining certain tax brackets for determining
00:02:10.820
what school you can get into what benefits you can get and and some of these things it's not
00:02:17.200
just cultural impulses but it's actually legislative law at a judicial legislative level
00:02:25.600
there are unequal weights and balances and the lord the lord abhors these things according to
00:02:33.400
his word we need to be like the sons of issachar we need to know what time it is now that being
00:02:39.460
said i i because i i don't want you to say amen i'm gonna do that i'm gonna walk out of church
00:02:45.060
today and live a more courageous life and then you get punched in the face and you're like well
00:02:49.360
my pastor led me astray i had no i because you will get punched in the face metaphorically or
00:02:53.840
literally this is one other thing the sons of issachar knew the time but what that means when
00:03:00.620
you say something when it's actually relevant right so you're not talking about social justice
00:03:05.400
50 years too late, but you're actually talking about it when it's relevant. You know what that's
00:03:10.200
called? It's called being a prophet. And you know what happens to the prophets? They get killed.
00:03:19.280
Now, later generations build tombs to honor them, right? Everybody says, I love Charles Spurgeon.
00:03:26.100
That's because he's safely buried under six feet of dirt. If he was still alive, you'd hate him.
00:03:32.040
I promise you, you know how I know you'd hate him? Because you hate John MacArthur.
00:03:35.400
And John MacArthur is tame in comparison to Charles Spurgeon.
00:03:42.280
Charles Spurgeon was calling people out on the front row in his church saying,
00:03:46.260
you, sir, the gloves that you have belong to your employer and you stole them.
00:03:51.300
And he's calling them out by name and pointing at them.
00:03:55.960
In front of a thousand people, Charles Spurgeon was way more intense, way more intense.

00:04:03.840
so knowing the times like the sons of issachar means that you're actually crying out against
00:04:10.100
injustice when it's actually taking place everybody as a good rule of thumb when amazon
00:04:17.020
is putting black lives matter on their screensaver and on all their packages then you know there's
0.65
00:04:24.200
there's actually no need to say it any longer because everyone already agrees
00:04:28.180
if a if a corporation is doing it then what you're saying is this is a battle that's actually
00:04:35.400
already won but but but when it's a time where there's an actual injustice taking place not 50
00:04:42.980
years ago but today and and you know that if you were to speak out that instead of being hoisted
00:04:49.240
up on shoulder top and given a parade in your honor you would actually be penalized then that's
00:04:55.840
how you know that's the thing that's the target that you should be hovering over and you should
00:05:02.160
do it with strategy and shrewdness and wisdom don't be suicidal but also don't be a coward
00:05:11.020
but know that if you know the times and you talk about not just
00:05:16.380
giants see i've used this illustration in the past it's like
00:05:20.300
talking about sins and certain things culturally wide sins and injustices that have already kind
00:05:29.960
of come and gone and been dealt with right the overton window has already shifted right the
00:05:35.280
parade is already happening what that's like is is like it's like somebody who risked their life
00:05:42.280
and killed a giant that was terrorizing the people of god and then what you do is after the giant
00:05:49.900
that just moments ago you were shaking and quivering out of fear now that he's he's good
00:05:54.920
and dead and laying on the ground with his head severed you run up to the giant you start kicking
00:06:00.440
him in the side i'm a warrior no you're not and there's another giant right over here that's
00:06:10.680
literally taking the church the people of god and decimating them and you're like i won't stand for
00:06:17.300
giants that you're kicking the the dead corpse and there's a giant at large that's actually
00:06:22.720
alive that's currently destroying the people of god and nothing to see here
0.96
00:06:33.420
it's john piper that's russell moore that's beth moore it's david french francis collins tim keller
00:06:47.300
they kick dead giants and pretend not to see living giants that are currently destroying
00:06:54.400
the people of God. They're bad shepherds. They're bad shepherds. Can I be frank with you for just a
0.95
00:07:03.820
second right here at the end? Look, some of you guys, you're financially supporting this ministry
00:07:08.800
and from the bottom of my heart, I say thank you. I cannot thank you enough. However, some of you,
00:07:15.860
you just, you can't afford it. In fact, some of you, you shouldn't afford it. Let's be honest.
00:07:22.900
I mean, we're living in Joe Biden's ridiculous economy. Our nation and our totalitarian political
0.94
00:07:30.400
elites lost their minds over the last three years due to COVID. We have written checks that we
00:07:38.220
simply cannot cash. It doesn't matter if people change the definition of a recession. We are
00:07:44.440
living in a recession right now regardless. Some of you are struggling to afford a carton of eggs
00:07:51.720
at the grocery store. You cannot support financially this ministry at this time nor should you but you
00:07:59.520
could still help us tremendously. I am asking you please if you're willing to do so take one minute
00:08:06.780
of your time. Leave us a five-star review on your favorite podcast platform iTunes, Spotify, whatever
00:08:14.020
that might be, this is the way the system works. We want to be innocent as doves but shrewd as
00:08:20.680
vipers. We need to be strategic. You leave us a five-star review and our podcast shows up for
00:08:27.400
more people. And the Word of God and courageous theology applied in practical ways to every
00:08:34.620
realm of life gets out there. Help us get it out there. Thanks for tuning in.
