The NXR Podcast - DAILY TRUTH - The Sons Of Issachar

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. 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. 0.58

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

00:06:27.940 that's marked ever i'm gonna name

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.

00:08:44.020 Thank you.
