Jesus God in the Flesh

Call-In Classic Christianity Radio – Bob George P479 (10-04-19)

Transcript

Danny from Nashville, TN

Danny: In my line of work, I meet a lot of people, and when appropriate I witness. Do you believe the Trinity?

Bob: The word Trinity is not in the bible. Neither is the rapture. But the scripture explains the concept of both. There is one God yet declared as three different persons; God the Son, God the Father, and God the Holy Spirit.

  • In one place, Jesus said I will raise myself from the dead (John 10:18)
  • In another place, the Father raised him from the dead (Galatians 1:1, Romans 6:4)
  • In another place, the Holy Spirit raised him from the dead (Romans 8:11)
  • In another place, God raised him from the dead (Acts 2:24)

Bob: He was not raised four times. It was just a different way of saying God raised him from the dead.

Bob: As a seminary professor once said, “If you deny the Trinity you lose your soul. If you try to understand the Trinity, you lose your mind.”

John 4:24
24 God is spirit, and his worshipers must worship in the Spirit and in truth.

Call-In Classic Christianity Radio – Bob George P478 (10-03-19)

Transcript

Liz from Gallup, NM

Liz: I have been saved for 8 years, love the Lord with all my heart, and married for 9 years. We got married in the church but he walked away. I asked him to move.

Liz: In Ephesians it says a man is to write a note to let the wife go. That is what I have to do. (She is in great distress. You can hear anguish or tears in her voice.)

Bob: I am sure it does not say that, Liz. You are reading something that is not there.

Bob: Why are you so upset with this man in your marriage?

Liz: He does not believe the bible. He is believing his traditional way. He is gay. He is practicing homosexuality. He prefers a man than me. (She is quite emotional). I need to file for a divorce.

Bob: Hold on Liz. Let me ask the questions and you answer. I think I can help you better that way.

Bob: Is he practicing homosexuality?

Liz: Yes. People have seen him.

Bob: Have you confronted him with his homosexuality?

Liz: Yes. Has he admitted that he is?… Click to Read More And Follow Along With The Message

Understanding the New Covenant

Call-In Classic Christianity Radio – Bob George P477 (9-27-19)

Transcript

Nick from Loredo, TX

Nick: I was listening to someone preach the other day. He said you cannot be a cafeteria Christian. What he meant was that you cannot be a Christian that just picks and chooses scriptures and live accordingly. It is either all of the scripture or none of them.

Bob: Well, that is not true. You certainly do not want to be living under the Old Covenant when it has been replaced by the New Covenant. I do not know what his theology is. Let us take two scenarios. If he is saying that we are just as much under the Old Covenant as the New Covenant, then that person is out to lunch. If the Jews could not live under the Old Covenant, we cannot live under it either. That is why God came to replace the Old Covenant. The Old Covenant is obsolete, old and aging and will soon disappear. We do not live under the Old Covenant. We live under the New Covenant.

Hebrews 8:13
13 By calling this covenant “new,” he has made the first one obsolete; and what is obsolete and outdated will soon disappear.

The Finality of the Cross

Call-In Classic Christianity Radio – Bob George P476 (9-26-19)

Transcript

Tom from Louisville, KY

Tom: A friend of mine, a pastor of a church I go to, is not resting in the finality of the cross. From a passage in Hebrews chapter 3 where it says if we hold firmly to the end, the confidence we have at first, where he is trying to tell men you can lose your salvation. What does it mean to hold on firmly to the end?

Hebrews 3:14
14 We have come to share in Christ, if indeed we hold our original conviction firmly to the very end.

Bob: The solution to biblical interpretation is context. What is the context of the first three chapters of Hebrews? It is about the superiority of Christ in contrast to the things the Jews are holding onto. He is superior to the angels. He is superior to Moses. He is superior to Abraham. He is God Himself. He is gearing us toward a rest, and that is coming up in chapter 4. That is the the Sabbath rest He wants us to enter into.

Bob: You know that you have the story of the Jews who were in Egypt.… Click to Read More And Follow Along With The Message

Synopsis

Ernest from Strausburg, PA

Ernest: I have a quick question on 2 Timothy 2:12.

2 Timothy 2:12
12 if we endure,
we will also reign with him.
If we disown him,
he will also disown us;

Ernest: What does that mean?

Bob: A person who denies Christ, Christ denies them. He accepts our non-acceptance. You say you do not want anything to do with God. Then He says that He will not have anything to do with you either. It would be like a person who says, “I do not want to be around this person”. Then he says, “I do not want to be around you then”. (Of course, God is patient and waiting for a person to change their mind, longing to be gracious to him.)

Bob: Now talking about Christians. If you are faithless, then he will remain faithful for he cannot disown Himself. When you come to Christ, you have not denied Him because you came to Him by faith. But you can be faithless, that is, you can choose to not continue to walk by faith. In the midst of that, He will remain faithful because He cannot disown Himself, because You and Him are one now.… Click to Read More And Follow Along With The Message

Be Transformed Renew Your Mind

Call-In Classic Christianity Radio – Bob George P474 (9-19-19)

Synopsis

Rainey from Albany, NY

Rainey: I am reading Classic Christianity, and calling the number at the end of the book. I am dealing with depression. I have had a very difficult childhood, with divorce. I thought I got over most of the stuff. I was always religious, a Catholic growing up, and thought I would become a nun. I think anti-depressants help. I get messages that I do not have enough faith.

Bob: Let me see if I can help you. If you have depression, I can help you with that. Psychiatric patients are like that because they are obsessed with the past or the future. The first thing you have to understand is that God created you that our feelings will predictably respond to what you are thinking. As an example, “Have you ever felt the emotion of jealousy? What were you thinking? Jealous thoughts. That is why we are feeling thoughts of jealousy. Are we together?

Rainey: Yes. It is hard to keep a thought from entering.

Bob: Have you ever felt sad? Have you ever felt happy? What were you thinking? Happy thoughts. Have you ever felt anxiety?… Click to Read More And Follow Along With The Message
